The politicians or economists at Ottawa, or both who set i1p a cost-of-livingindex based on the average prigeg of 1935-39, hoodwirikcd most Canadians. During that period the farmer W85 living from hand to mouth. This is absolutely proven by the Canadian Farm Products Index of prices which for i029 was 100.8 and whith for June i941 had only recovered to 7i .0 from the low in 1933 of 51.0 (see Prices and Price Indexes junc 1941, volume I9, issue No. 6): Here are some facts. Wage rates and more partl- cularly wage incomes are running at the highest rate in the history of Canada. Canadiian farm products are still 3o per cent below their level based on the Dominion Bureau of Sltatistics own figures. Actual retail prices of a wide V8.1’!- ety o! food stuff: at given above are still away below I929 prices when neither wage rates nor wage incomes were as high as they are now. The plain fact is that the Dominion Government is inducing employerl to pay bonuses to a large number of employees not because they are neces- ury to take care of the high oost of llviri_g_but girnply to take care of the high cost of municipal, provincial, and Dominion Government taxes which are not only for war purposes but for other public expenditures that at this time ought to be cut out entirely or reduced substantially. It i; time employers and employees alike woke up to what is going on. .Ou em. The vitally important part the Canadianlfarm- In are playing in food production in this time of 35,13, and the notable increases in many lines of mductiori, were indicated by 110m I. Gard- er, Federal Minister of Agriculture, in a re- cent address at Winnipeg. He emphasized that Western farmers are producing steadily larger food supplies for Britain, where they are sorely needed, and also meeting the greater demand for foods in Canada due to the full employment "14 lar r earnings of the people. _ _ , acon and hams are among Britain: greatest needs and our shipments have increased from 160,000,000 pounds at the bfglfmmg o‘ ‘he w“ to 480,000,000 pounds this year. Under the new . - . .. contract Canada is to ship ‘at least 500.000.1300 poundl. _ f Cheese production has been stepped up rom 71,000,000 pounds in the first year of the war to 112,000,000 pounds, and this i5 t0 b!

While the great increase in the production and sale of food supplies l5 good business, it is for from Icing only good business, to thefarin- u,» am] i.» the Government.

Whether some of the cost nmv rcmziiil with Canada is for the future to deciilc. g _ _ Unfortunately optimism with regard to Can- ada's capacity to meet the food requirements of the British market is tending to become con- fined to the Western Provinces. Every en- couragement is being given these provinces to change over from wheat to livestock production. This year Western farmers expect to obtain only about one quarter of their income from wheat and three-quarters from livestock and dairy production. etc. Meanwhile in the eastcm Prov- inces where livestock and dairy production have been established for generations, tlicrc has been a decline owing to high freight charges on western grain products. Hon. Mr. Gardiner on his recent visit to the Maritimes emphasized this point, but failed to sliolv our farmers holv tllcy could increase production unrlcr cxisiiilg condi-J tiolis. He practically conceded that the railways were a law unto themselves, and that the Gov- ernment could not intcrefere in the matter ot freight rate adjustments. This notwithstanding that the Government sought and obtained from ‘Parliament dictatorial powers over the physical’ and nlaterial resources of the ctluntry, with the object of speeding up our war effort. What secms to be needed at Ottawa is soliic-| one in charge of the agricultural iicprlrtlncm, who understands and sympathize-s with czlstc-rn as well as western farm problems. .\lr. Gardiner is an able politician, a very genial gentlemen and per-l sonzilly above reproach. But he thinks too nlucll _ in terms exclusively of his coustitutcnts iii the‘ Prairie Provinces to make a competent admin-g istrator f0‘: a country as diversified agrictillurally - as is this vast Dominion. Thcre is little hopc oi his being ousted from his position, as lie is Prime Minister Kiug’s political right bower iii Saskatchewan. But the Maritime Provrilccs arr paying a pretty heavy price for this luxury- .-\n increasing n1ajority' of people are wonder- ing why politics should ciltcr at all into the lthe makeup of a Dominion cahipct in time of war, when. the fzlte of the whole lilinpire i< at stake. Lct us hope that llic Priluc hlitlistcris visit to England will have given him a kccilcr appreciation of the advantages of non-partisan rule under such conditions. It is, confcsscdlv, a~ slim hope, Mr. King being of an rigc when ideas imbibed in youth tend to llilfilPll and solidify. .\lr. King has gone so far on the high- way of political opportunism that lie probably imagines, quite sincerely, that it is the only safe road to take. Certainly he must find in .\lr. Gardiner a spirit miraculously attuned to his own in this regard.

II l‘ i‘ i A seventy-seven year old Conservative Sena- tor died suddenly Saturday near Pcrcc, Quebec, while inspecting timber limits. He was the Hon David Oride L’Esperancc, and his death makes the fifth vacancy in the Upper House.

I have been speaking now for over a quarter of an hour, but there are so many in- terruptions and so much ribaldry from all parts of the hall that I can scarcely hear myself speak- ing." “Cheer upl" exclaimed someone. “You're not missing much." m n n- e “I do be thinking God mutt laugh The time Ha maker a boy: All element fhs creature: an, And divilmenl and joy.

In Manhattan they have on a little war of their own in the liquor business. Some dealer started cutting, and now New York Times an- nounces that prices have been slashed 70 cents to $1.15 on a variety of scotches by department- al stores. Naturally a roaring trade is being done, as there is no restriction on hoarding in this par- ticular line, and there is no certainty how long it will be before normal prices are restored. l! ll‘ ll! ll‘ Hudson River discovered this date 1607. called after Henry Hudson who first explored it; rises in the Adirondack Mts; total length about 35o miles (150 of which are tidal).

I've been here since 8.30." It ivas then early afternoon. There is no consolation in the fact that. others are left on the wharf for the next. trip. There should be something done to relieve the annoyance. Tourists. should not. have to wait several hours to cross to the Island or vice verso. 'I'l"lat doesn't encourage tourist traffic.
