Britain only last year last to Ja- pan her long supremacy as the world's greatest shipbuildar. Tha government has warned that Ja- pan, Germany and other compot- itors are already profiting from Britain's strike. In addition. it appeared certain tat the wage strike movement would snowball to other indust- ries. . Engineering unions, with 2.500.- ooo workers in vital industries. have scheduled a strike next Sat- urday. These unions. embracing workers in aviation, automobile. electrical equipment and heavy industrial concerns, also are de- manding a 10-per-cent wage in- cre e.

This is about 522 better than the national average for industrial workers. The strikers are feeling the effects of itflation. and can- tend that shipyard profits in rec- ent years have been high. The prices of shipyards shares hava trebled since 1909. Shipyard owners maintain that costs of modernizing plants are high, and that if wages are in- creased they will be unable to compete in world markets.

Not our dew line only but our hool line be our first line of defe e. Can- ada would be wise to send educa- tional observers as well as mili- tary observers to her embassies abroad. The effectiveness of our Island schools. must first be considered under the guidance of and in co- operation with our Department of Education. If these resources are financially inadequate, then the Federal powers should make sure that our defences are sure. The granting of millions of dol- lars to the universities by the Fed- eral government will hnve little ef- fect and little meanllll. if our ele- mentary and secondary schools cannot be adequately staffed and maintained. Unless we do this. it will be of small import to correct the weakness at the top. FOUNDATION If we have a poor foundation. It will be of little use to repair the roof and paint the caves.
