Aitd lit w" _\' tlt-prcctned any attempt made to meas- ure Lziiiiiilirs contribution to the war by compar- lll_L_ l'.'llt'~ of taxation here with those of other Lailllllflcfi. llicrc is a simpler comparison which la tiitifc ciiiiviiieiiig. After we have met our war reipiirciiiciits, what is left for consumption by the civilian population? Is it higher or lower than the ]ll'L‘-\\'lll' standard? D0 we work longer hours or apply ourselves more intensively than Otllci‘ nations? "'l‘lie evidence of both statistics and common observation," says Mr. Ilsley, “is pretty clear that all we have experienced so far on tlie ziveriige is some moderate decline from the pCal( of wartime consumption, and some increase in the inconveniences of shopping and travelling." That answer is irrefutable. Another point stressed by the Minister was the comparatively light cost of the Victory Loan campaigns. Ile thought it remarkable that the over-all cost of these intensive and extensive campaigns, including the cost of engraving the bonds and of all publicity activities, can be kept as low as one per cent of the amount of the money raised. It is encouraging to note his statement that receipts from the sale of farm products reach- ed a higher level in 1942 than in any year in ilic past two decades. Mr. Ilsley conceded, how- ever, that receipts from the sale of farm pro- ducts are not equivalent to farm inc0n1e_ Farm costs ltave also risen, but there is every evidence that farm incomes are at more remunerative levels than in any but the record years. The adoption of the “pay-as-you-go” income tax system, similar to the widely publicized “Ruml Plan”, was anticipated in business quar- ters. So were the increased taxes on liquor, smokes and entertainment. The one-cent in- crease in letter postal rates will be more widely felt, but, granted the need of raising the ne- cessary extra revenue, there will be little in- clination to cavil at the method employed. One thing will be expected of the Govern- ment to ‘a greater degree than in the past, name- 1y, that it set an example in curtailment of non. war essentials. Its record in this connection has not been inspiring. It should scck rigidly to control all waste and extravagance during the somii-ig fiscal year. Fa rm Labor Programme It would seem that after much delay and prodding from farm organizations and other bodies, the Dominion Government is at last Ill'(‘l)2l.l'l!l_( to move in the direction of an organ- izcd farm labour programme. An Qlltllng of this programme was given the other day in the IIouse of Commons by Hon. Mumphrey Mit- clicll, Miiiistei- of La-botir. He stated that it is liciii; stwit .-n llllCf‘ to each provincial department of tigrittiltttre and labour to be followed by de- t-‘iilctl ilisctissitiiis in each province between their l‘c.~l1(‘cll\'(' officials and representatives of the kvtlviwil llcpartiiiciit of Labour. _ Siiiliiliztitiiiii of essential labour on the farms l3 given first place in the programme. Refer- ence is made t0 an “interpretative letter" sent on Feb. I to the chairmen of each mobilization board to ensure greater uniformity in the ap- plication of the mobilization regulations and to piiiplitisizc tlic importance of retaining manpower iii agriculture. 'l'liis letter stressed that post- piiiieiiiciits be granted tiiitil ftirther notice to essential agricultural workers. l‘1ii~ tlic past llll't.‘(‘ years a successful activitv \\":--' czirricil iiii lll (liitario on a tlollar for dolla-r basis jointly by the Dominion and the Province \\'ll(‘l'('l)_\' workcrs consisting of men and wgmgn students from tirliaii centres were recruitgd {qr farm work. Last ycztr Nova Scotia and Bri_ tisli (oltiiiiliizi ciitcrcrl into a. similar agreement to iiicct labour rcqtiircinciits for fruit picking. This UOlllilllOll-IIFOVIIICIEII co-operative plan will be expanded and further developed this year in all provinces, it is announced. Already confer- ences to this end have been conducted. Arrangements are also being made to ensure that farmers and farm workers engaged in log- ging, lumbering and other seasonal work return to agriculture in timc'for spring work. T here Ire some 175.000 men who were moved from farms for winter work who must return to agri- culture. otherwise they will lose their rights to Pfstpmlfiment under the mobilization regula- tions. . The Government also undertakes to tap exist- ing pools of manpower, including prisoners-of- war, Japanese in Canada, Indians on reserves, as t-iietl war cxpcndittirc figures, unmarried men who are called for military ser- vice and found to be unfit and who in the op- inion of the National Selective Service officer are suitable for farm work. All important feature of the plan is tlic pro- vision for local agricultural war committees. Such committees iii counties, townships, parishes and mtltlicipztlitivs have already been established by scvcral of tlic provinces to meet 1943 farm production goals. Other provinces have this same plan tinder consideration. Each province will also be requested to ex- plore the possibility of moving workers from low productive farms to more productive ones, and to tlcvclop tletailctl plans which will bcst fit the local necessities. The Government tindertakes that qualified men with agricultural tppcrience will be ap- pointed to the employment staff of each region and were necessary within individual provinces. An agricultural division of tlic labour supply branch has been established, and assurance is given that close contact between this division and the federal and provincial departments of agriculture will he iiitiiiitttiiicd. 'l'lic.~c and other iiictistircs, if properly ap- plied, should help iiizitcrittlly iii relieving the farm labor shortage. The regrettable thing is that they should only now be going into effect. It fiicziiis that much valuable tinic has been ivasted. ' How Lives Are Saved From John Ilcrslicvs account iit "Life" of The Battle of tlic hirer, an incident of (itiatltil- canal, the following interesting passage is takcn: “I never did find otit exactly how many men were killed, l‘lO\\' many wounded iii our little rally. But I do know that niie less died bccatisc of Doc. New. An officer was brought in, iii absolute SllOCk — gray as nslics, hands cold, no pulse. He had had wounds from mortar shrap- iiel. Doc. New realized that plasma, and lots of it was all that C0lll(l save him. Ile had to maintain blackout. lIe had also to keep the man warm. \Vorking feverishly, lie covered first the wounded man, then his owii head anti shoulders with ponchos. Before the first unit of 250 cc. was all iii, the patient came otit of his coma. By the time the second was iii he could speak. By morning lie ivas able to stand tlic ride on a stretcher down to the beach road, and sit up in a jeep on the way back to the hospital." This eyewitness Story eloquently emphasizes the importance of maintaining and expanding the Canadian Red Cross organization for col- lecting and processing blood through its blood donor clinics in all the large centres of popula- tion. ~ EDI I URIAI NU I [IS — Wage-earners whose income tax has been de- ducted weekly, semi-tveekly or monthly will find practically no change under the new budget. =1- Tlie three Maritime Legislatures will soon all be active together, as well as those of Quebec and Ontario. Of course, “the daughter" Pat'- liament at Ottawa-for, unlike Westminster, it is an outgrowth of provincial pZlfllZllllClllS, not their “mother"-—has been sitting ziiid talking since third week of January. n- s. i: i: It is encouraging to know that our principal engineering industry is getting along so satis- factorily, even with a lack of sufficient Gov- ernment munitions contracts. Newfotititllzind is to be congratulated on being able, in spite of priorities, U-boats, etc., to order many marine engines to help to keep large numbers of cm- ployees busy. Long may it continue. 1K i‘ W i Here is a fine kettle of fish. Ottawa postal censors threaten to go on strike because their hours, poor dcars, are from 9.15 a.ni. to 6.15 p.m. with an hotir off for dinner, whereas prisoners- of-war censors work from 9.15 a.m. to 5.15 p.111. In other words, postal censors work 8 hours and prisoner-of-\var censors 7 hours. The gov- ernment should jerk up the latter, not down the former. w w According to tlic Sacltville '.lIl‘ll)LlllC the Pro- gressive Conservatives have taken over the: Saint John Telegraph-Journal and Evening Times, as well as the Moncton Times. In the case of the former that may account fnr Editor Jennings accepting a government appoiiiliiiciit.

Ii It We sometimes have to go far afield for local news. The London correspondent of tlic Aber- deen Jottriial declares “farmers of Prince lid- ivard Island told Professor A. Scott Watson, Britain's first agricultural attache at tlic Bri- tish Embassy in Washington, that they now have a big surplus of well-bred heifers which they would like a chance to export to Scotland. The farmers there believe their heifers would bc splendid material for restocking parts of Great Britain with sound, healthy cattle."

In 1919 I was el- ected leader of the party which I iiow head. I was ambitious like oth- er men. But I let my personal am- bltlon carry me away. For my own gOOd I continued to play on the dlvlslons fn the country.

In 1921 my main cry 1n Quebec was ln opizzitlon to conscription. I was elected. In the elections of 1W6 of I926, of 1930, of 1935, 0f 1940 we‘ kept the conscription issue iiifve, trying to frighten the citizens of French racial orlgln into voting for me and for m party against all others, I kept iirpfng on the sub- ject of conscription. Election after election tn Quebec ignored social and economic uestlons and fanned racial and nat- onallftlc feelings. I You see, my fellow-Canadians, lt was no accident that these things were done. It was no accident that my supporters ln Quebec lndoctrm- iitect the people there with deeper and deeper lso atlonlsn, with dls- llke and even hatred of Britain. with promises that‘ never again would we send an expeditionary force to fl ht the enemy, no mat.- ,tcr what t e cause.
