TUESDAY, JANUARY, 8, 1939 ‘The Strongest . i the The Farmer's Handicap A fizzled farmer told Premier Bracken's wheat conference at Winnipeg}; ti: ptherhdayé, o; selling wheat for 4o cents a us e in t e ar days of I932 and for $1.50 a bushel last year. And on the day when he sold for 40 cents, the price of bread in his market town was exactly the same as on the (lay when he received $1.50. The farmer's figures were accepted without question‘ at the eonferpttce, and a ‘prominent dealer in wheat sermet to express tie opinion of all the t-xtserts when hc said that the price of lm-ntl did not hear very much relation t0 the price ul wheat. 'l'oo nnnrvfotlter fpctolr; entered. \\‘ltat are illt‘>(3 other r actors. ere are, says the Vancouver Province, a lot of then1— milling costs, baking costs, transportation costs, CuSts‘ of storage and ltatitlling, costs of materials. like yeast and salt and stigar, that go to the mak- ing of bread. llut if one analyzes these various costs, it will be found that most of them trace back to labor costs. The ntilling, the baking, the transportation and the storing all involve labor. Even when the work is done largely by machinery, labor C0515 are inV0l\'€(l, for flit’, machinery is nude by labor. All this labor must be paid for and is paid for in the price of the loaf of bread. It is paid for, also, on a rigid unit lnsis. Transportation costs the same, whether wheat is worth 40 cents a bushel or S2. Milling costs do not vary with the value of the wheat used. Baking costs do not go down when flour is cheaper. And so it oes. All this, however, is poor comfort to the far?- er. who has never succeeded in putting either is labor costs or his capital costs into the price of the commodity he has tn sell. But while he can _ not get a return for either his own labor or his own capital, he is compelled to give a return to those whose labor he utilizes and whose capital he rents. Getting Away With It Probablv the best of all commentaries on ‘the amazing Coster case in the United States is the laintive note contributed by the publisher of ho’s Who, who remarked: “Who’s Who takes it for granted that a man elected president of an $S7,ooo.ooo concern is a man of good re- putation and standing in his community." Because practically everybody else follows the lame rule, an imaginative swindler was able to put across one of the most fantastic hoaxes of modern times, deceive everybody from the U.S. government to .\\'all Street, and come to grief only because of a slip-up on a minor detail, People probably will be drawing morals from this case for years to come. An exchange sug- gest that the most striking thing about it is the way it illustrates the almost universal tendency t0 take a man at his own valuation. Memorial To Cheese Factory To mark the site and commemorate the estab- lishment of the first cheese factory in Alberta a cairn was raised recently in the Springbank district, some twelve miles west of Calgary. It bears a. bronze plaque which records that this cheese factory was established “by Ebenezer Healy, on N.E. 12-25-W5, Springbank, 1888." Mr. Healy was a native of Nova Scotia. He reached Winnipeg in 1882, went to Regina iti 1883 where he established a dairy farm, and then located at Springbank in 1887. He died July, 1937, aged 92, having seen the cheese out- put of the Province rise from 20,000 pounds to 2,300,000 pounds a year. The idea of perpetuating achievements of this kind is an excellent one, and might be adopted in other agricultural Provinces. So far as cheese factories are concerned. we understand that the first was started in Prince Edward Island in r883—five years before the establishment of Mr. Healy's factory in Alberta. g Mill View, Dunk River and St. Eleanors hold the distinc- tion of being the first communities here to en- gage in this enterprise. Apples And Penitenll ‘Although he had apple trees in his own gar- den, Mr. William Symonds of Torquay, Eng- i land. helped himself the other day to seventeen _' apples from the orchard of a neighboring farm- ~ er. A watching policeman accused him, where- upon his conscience smote him hard. Symonds, i Ttwho is 61 years old, hastened to make amends. , He wrote a letter to the aggrieved farmer, en- closing flve it notes. An read in the police court the missive ran: "It am writing to offer ‘ you my apology for having done you, a neigh- bor, a grevious wrong. It was brought. home to" me last Sunday evening during the reading of me Scriptures and Psalms. I stood there con- frleted of wrong-doing to my neighbor and be- ore God and I cannot quiet my conscience nor jleeb until ,1 have done something real in the tter, for the Scripfitreuya that having sin- ' gglihtit, a nil hum- l nhould meet him while ‘ y‘ and offer restitution for my» owner and own up to him as welL The boy. though a little dubious, fo1low‘ed the person's ad- vice only to meet a very muscular Christian who abused him in most unchristiatylanguagc, and took the price of the apples out of his hide. The poor penitent, more in anger than in sorrow, now thinks Protestant soul clinics are not all they are cracked up to be. Hitler's Self-Sufficiency Advices from Germany are to the effect that Herr Hitler is becoming more and more the re- cluse. He spends most of his time in his strong- ly guarded mountain fastness, and mixes less than ever either on social occasions or with his coadjutors and political lieutenants. This attitude is said to be encouraged by Der Fuehrefls conviction, consistently strengthened by past dramatic experiences, that his judgment is far nearer infallibility than that 0f any of his subordinates. He was warned against every one of his now historic post-war coups — the reoc- cupation of the Rhineland, the Vienna anschluss, and the Czech drive. In each case he took the gamble, and in each case he backed a winner against the expert tipsters. This has naturally tended to confirm such tendencies towards megalomania as the ex-lance corporal has long exhibited. The only ques- tion is how far this process of self-sufficiency may carry him, The hysteria of megalomaniacs ntay be (langerous-especially when they happen to be autocratic Chancellors.

U. ¥ l l!‘ Contending that a. sandpit of Provineetown Harbor, Mass, and not “the mythical rock" at Plymouth, is the “holy ground" on which the Pilgrims first trod, Cape Codders propose t0 dig up tombstones there to prove that at least some of the pious pioneers went ashore for forty days. i i l I The Washington Government intends to re- commend to Congress the continuance of the stabilization fund of $2,o0o,00o,0oo, authority t0 operate which will expire on June 30. The fund is a very important feature of the Treas- ury's activities, and a profit had been realized on its operations and all expenses paid out of its earnings. The profit, resulting from the fund’s operations last year was $6,000,000 and the profit at this time is not less than that amount. The fund was set up when the gold dollar was devalued at the end of I933, and has been used since that time to stabilize interna- tional currencies and guard against speculative abuses. a 4i :- u The Indian town from which Pocahontas was kidnapped by the English in 1612 has been lo- cated, and is being excavated by Dr. T. D. Stewart, Smithsonian Institution anthropologist. Identifying the place by aid of Captain John Smith's map of Virginia, Dr. Stewart says there is no doubt this was Patawomeke on the Poto- mac River west bank, where lovely Pocahontas was hidden by her father after Capt. John Smith left Jamestown. Indian fears that Pocahontas might be seized as a valuable hostage to the English proved well founded, when Captain Ar- gall used an Indian to lure the maid away from Patawomeke, and held her captive until her father ransomed her by an exchange of English prisoners. It wa during this captivity, says Dr. Stewart, that Poc atontas fell in love with John Rolfe, whom she married. l I! F Commenting on the fact that a joint message on the Jewish question has been issued by leaders of the Roman Catholic Church, the Protestant Episcopal Church, the Southern Baptist Con- vention, the Presbyterian Church and the twen- ty-fivc bodies constituent to the Federal Coun- cil of Church of Christ in America, The New York Times says: “This is believed to be the first time that spokesmen of all Christian denom- inations in this country, Protestant and Roman Catholic, have tinited in a declaration on a. sub- ject of such international importance. For this reason the significance of the statement is un- mistakable. Never was there a time when the unity of all faiths on the one essential of hu- man rights and human dignity was more des- perately needed. This protest comes as a brave answer to those who feared or who hoped that on this issue the common front of Christendom was broken." n1 w ‘o- n- Smugness may be a. fault, and, if carried to excess, even a crime perhaps, says The New York Times. But the question is whether peo- ple are not going too far in the other direction nowadays. A meeting of school teachers usually has an address entitled, “Ths Bankruptcy of the School System." Parents in convention assemb- led face the factsboldly in a. nation-wide hook- up, “Our, Crimes Against Childhood."
