A PO$SSIBLE INDUSTRY. This province imports yearly some millions of potato sacks atal considerable profit-to manufactur- ers in Montreal. Why could not these sacks be made at home, keep- lug the profits for our own people? As the business is being done now the manufacturing oi‘ these sacks for Prince Edward island alone gives employment to hundreds oi‘ people in Jidontroal and would givo year-round employment to a hun- dred or more of our own people ii we had the courage and the enter- prise to undertake it. Individual members of the Potato Growers’ Association pay from $20 t0 $100 and over every year for their sup- ply of sacks. The spread between the original cost and the price paid here probably runs from 40 to so per cent. it would mean very much, in more ways than one. to the mem- bers to have this difference added to the price they receive for their potatoes; it. would ‘mean giving em- they grow potatoes. We have this trade now and centroid it as ions as we live up‘to_t e requirements ‘and provide honest stock, whichwe can do. The potato sack business will continue as long as the potato business, so there is little if any risk on that score. Some one is going into this business,'and why not we? ' ‘ GETTING Sl-DE-TRAOKED Canada has for many years en- joyed the distinction of being the foremost of the imperial daughters comprising the British Common- wealth of Nations. it would ep- pear. i'rom reports 0t the Imperial Conference in London, lhiglami. that we are now, or shortly shall he, second to Australia, our rival sister in the South Pacific. Mr. ‘H. T. Hunter. Vice-President of the Financial Post, independent, went to London to follow at close hand the imperial Conference. Cabl- ing to his paper, he confirms the iiu- pression, as the financial Post iputs it, many Canadian business men have gained (‘r/om daily despstches in the preset namely, that Austra- lia has in this conference. as in most recent activities in Britain, caught the imagination of the Brit- ish classes and masses. Premier fBruce, of Australia, Mr. Hunter declares, has a definite con- structive policy to offer, and is un- doubtedly the outstanding man at The British press, day‘l>y day, features his views. Be- fore he came. Australian agents in London had done a great deal oi‘ preparatory work with the public and the press, and un able publicity department ‘is’ now on the job to see that Australia's viewpoint is given full recognition. “Canada needs more publicity and better merchandising methods in ‘Britain, declares Mr. Hunter, who is of the opinion that these would greatly increase sales of Can- adian produce and merchandise in British markets. There is no immediate prospect ot‘ further extension of imperial the conference. ployment to many men and women, thus increasing the home market preferences. "Before the war, Canada was for farm products, thus enlarging our-closely 110N114 t0 Blfitflill by 8 V01‘! opportunities and retaining men and women who now go abroad for employment. ‘ ,_ Such an industry could be estab- lished in one of ltwo ways, either by private enterprise or co-opera- tively by the Potato Growers. ‘Would there be any risk in such ‘an enterprise? There is one risk which any industry in the lliarl- timel must always reckon with, that is the competition of the larg- er established industries in the central provincee. This risk, in a cooperative undertaking would be negligible, if its members were true to themselves and to their foint un- dertaking. I The larger factory would, as has more than once hap- pened. try to kill out the young in- duitry by underseiling. This would be‘ of no avail if the members of the organization adhered to their original compact. . il-Iere is an enterprise which awaits development and which‘ some day will be instituted and de- yehped, probably in the Mari- tinfes. and by some one in Mon- trchl or Tomato or by an enterpris- ing’ American.

This country hard little accumulated wealth in comparison withits natural oppor- tunities. Great lBrltain had enorm- ous wealth, the aggregate savings of many generations of world fin- anciers and traders, and millions of pounds of this came to Canada to fill our need. It is easy to un- derstand how the war put a check upon this steady flow ot‘ old coun- try dollars into the realm of Cana- dian investment, but it is not ao ap- parent why the movement hes not again developed. even on a smaller scale. Great Britain again has ‘money for foreign investment; Canada still offers opportunities. Yet British money is doing little more than trickle over to Canada. "The surplus of capital, that we require over andabove what we can supply/we are getting mainly from the United States. United States control of our great indus- trial and other productive develop- ments is continuing to grow space and is causing not a little conce n among Canadians."

But that the British Empire is not yet down and out is the expressed op- inion of Lord Beaverbrook and in a reported speech he sets forth some reasons on which his faith is based. "For my part," he says, "I take a confident view. The British Empire, compared with the Unit- ed States-and we are always be- ing asked ‘by the pessimists to make comparisons with America —the ‘British Empire has an out- ‘ put of wheat of 120,000,000 quar- ters a year as against 814000.000. “The United States boasts much about the natural resources oi‘ that country, the immense shipments of cotton and -tlie ex- tent to which other nations are compelled to rely on them for raw material. But you never hear oi’- the output of the British Empire of 69 per cent. of_all the gold that is produced every year." Lord Beaverbrook proceeds to point out that 60 per cent of nli and four-fifths oi‘ ‘the vast amount oi this material used in the United States is the output of the British Empire and that 62 per cent. oi the world's tin and 90 per cent. of its nickel is of British production. He also mentions that the area of our Empire is four times that of the United States and that the same proportion of four to one holds true in a comparison o_f the population oi‘ the ‘Empire and the Republic. 5 mi. ..“li is because I know of ‘these figures," says Lord ‘Beaverbroolt, "not from books, or from study, but fromwactual experience in the out- er marches ofihe Empire, that. I live here in the Capital. confident oi our future. and prepared to risk money, time, effort, everything that man can give in building up an even greater confederation of nu- tions than there has ever been in the long history of the world." Grand iFalle, N. 8.. has become the scene of great constructive ac- tivity within the past two months. The work of harnessing a mighty water power that has been hitherto idle has begun, and is being press- ed forward day and night. The New Brunswick papers tell that a‘ mini- ature city of workers has sprung up, wit-h between 200 and 300 hotels and boarding houses to lodge and shelter them. The work of making ready the foundations and install- ing the power piantand machinery is vast in itself and will take time, but is only preparatory to the es- tablishment and operation of great productive industries that must prove of incalcuiable value to the Province. Reports of Jndunrisl progress and development anywhere in the iMaritimes make cheerful reading of which there has been too little available during a generation past. It is now to be hoped that hydro electrical enterprise, which in the Maritime Provinces is yet only in its infancy, may have rapid growth and in due time may attain an im- portance and value in some meas- ure comparable to what has been achieved in Ontario and Quebec. The London Morning Post, which ha‘: reputation for aeoureeywas probably quite misinformed when it published the following personal notice: ~ ' The Right tl-lon. W.
