H. 1948 a At the basis of all,discussion on the present high cost of living lie a few economic facts, which wereclearly set forth this week by Mr. J. K. Macdonald, president of the» Confederation Life Association, in addressing the annual meeting of his organization. His statements, though in different words, have already found utterance in our own Legislative Assembly this season, as well as in the House of Commons. Mr. Macdonald emphasizes that the only way to check inflation is by the direction of ex- panding production of goods and services and by checking, or even contracting, the amount first requirement in this connection is for gov- ernments to abandon their easy money policy and to effect economy in expenditure wherever possible. A period of prosperity seems a logical time to reduce government indebtedness to banks. Permitting interest rates to seek their natural level has been in the past an effective method of curtailing excessive credit expansion. "industry, labour, and governments," says Mr. Macdonald, "ars faced with the most es- sential task of increasing production and the efficiency of labour and to adopt firm measures to arrest the vicious spiral of rising wages and prices. Until sufficient supplies become avail- able, any attempt to improve the people's stand- ard of living by simply raising money wages and increasing the money supply is doomed to fail- ure. lncrease in money wages without a corre- sponding increase in labour output per man-hour, and increasing the quantity of money without e corresponding increase in the quantity of final goods available for consumption will only re~ suit in a rise in prices and the elimination of any possibility of maintaining economic stability." lncreasedprices, as such, need not be harm- ful. It is the balance between prices, costs and income which is important. The objective of our prices program should be.to obtain a proper Ixlance in the price, cost, and income relation- ‘P- ' - I. Z. Teachers Britloai Trenchant criticism of the "new education" ln vogue in New Zealand schools was expressed by Miss A. L. Loudon, for many years head- mistress of the Epsom Girl's Grammar School, one of the largest girl's schools, in New Zealand. Too much "play-way" methods, too little at- tention to fundamentals, and a continued neglect of important mental processes were all too evi- dent in ,girls entering the schools from element- ary schools, Miss Loudon said. "Evidences of poonstandards are to be seen in hand-writing, spelling, composition, weakness of vocabulary, lack of any logical thought in arranging work, and lamentable inaccuracy in even the simplest "calculations," she added. "Such, in the ex- perience of this school, are the results of the new education.’ Apologists for the system may find compensations, but we have honestly tried to do so and failed." 5"l>l¢¢h giving background of language, good memory and habits of logical thought and accuracy are worth more than the superficial dabbling that has characterized much of prim- "FY education for many years and‘ is now a favor- od part of post-primary education, she said. Methodsare becoming soft. They too often in- vrte_ avoidance of everything that is difficult. Projects and dramatization and "play-way" methods still hold, after a quarter of a century of very doubtful success, a far more important place than they merit. The road to knowledge is hard, and these pleasant by-paths serve only as a very brief diversion. Miss Loudon's attack has been strongly sup- ported by Prof. J. Rutherford, Professor of Hist- ory at Auckland University. Students who came to him from the schools, he said, tended "to read carelessly and superficially, think sloppily and uncritically" and to be "woefully weak" in lit- erary composition. iiovol Milk Stimulator ' Mrs. Barbara Woodhouse, who lives in the south of England, has ‘hit on a novel idea for coaxing poor-yielding cows into l,000- gallon a year milkers-,she dresses them accord- ing to the weather! Thirty-eight-year-old Mrs. Woodhouse used to teach dancing, but since the war she's run a lZ-ocre smallholding and madc quite a contribution to llritain's fresh milk sup- plies. About two years ago she came to the conclusion that varying temperatures caused cows to give more or less milk-so she decided to dress them to suit the weather! If it's wet, they wear raincoats! In fine weather they have yutg and wool-lined rugs, and ln summer they '- wear cotton. The lierdsrnan decides each morn- ‘lng what clothes thgy'll put on. They keep their coats on indoors, so it doesn't matter if the cow- shed’: chilly. Seem! lllfil Soon get used to wearing overcoots. Mrs. Woodhousifs method . is. quits ordinary in Holland, Denmark and New "rlealond, but so far unusual in lritain. Mrs. “Vlaodhouse finds this idea a success.

This observance will mark a high point in the Canadian Appeal for Children, an appeal which seeks to collect $10 million to assist 400 million boys and girls in Europe and Asia whose lives have been ravag- ed by war. i I I I Statistics are apt to be dry and uninterest- ing, but they also may throw an interesting light on a problem. The fact, as brought out in the Dairymen’s Association meeting that Canadian consumption of butter is 28.6 pounds per capito as compared with American consumption of 14.6 pounds of both butter and margarine puts the Canadian butter "shortage" in an altogether new light. The scarcity and resulting high price is due in no small measure to the large amount of butter consumed by the average Canadian. w fi R i lt is the old story, we may be educating and training youths to forsake Canada for U.S.A. President S. Smith, of the University of Toronto, recently suggested that it would be well to con- sider how many university students this country can really educate and place in the sort offjobi for which they are training. lt is an important question. There are only so many openings for professional men and technical experts in Can- ada. To train more than these would merely end in a glut in the Canadian market, and emi- gration to the United States, with great noise from Leftist and careless thinkers, that this proved that everything was wrong with Canada. The Canadian need, at the moment, is for able- bodied and willing workers at heavy jobs with a reasonably good general education. ii a w a Henry James, American novelist, brother of William James, psychologist, died this date i916; though American born and educated, he spent the greater part of his life in England, and his novels in the early years were American and dealt with American life; the later were cos- mopolitan, dealing principally with characters of the highly educated, leisured class who had developed complexes and given to self-analyses. He was a skilful delineator, and his works en- joyed, and still enjoy a large circulation. They include Roderick Hudson, A Passionate Pilgrim, Daisy Miller, Life of Hawthorne, The Sacred Fount, The Wings of a Dove, Partial Portraits, Notes on Novelists, A Small Boy, The Ivory Tower, The Sense of the Past, and The Middle Years, the last being unfinished and published posthumously: "Art is nothing more than the shadow of humanity." a a Six years ago, on March 4, ‘I942, the first RAM heavily armored Canadian cruiser tanks arrived in England. The RAM was developed in Canada early in 194i by Canadian and Brit- ish‘ engineers working in co-operation with Can- adian and American manufacturers. The tank hod a cast armor plats upper hull and its chief armament was a 6-pounder gun mounted in the turret. Rapid future development in tank design soon rendered the RAM obsolescefibut. it played an important role in the training of Canadian tank troops and in American and British tank design. Perhaps its most spectdcu- lar role was an armoredcarrisr lor the infantry in the battles preceding the. fall of Falaise. Stripped of turrets and guns, and nicknamed "Kangaroos," the Rams ploughed through the enemy gun screens at night and deposited their loads of liifantrymeir behind the German lines. ‘ibis, ingenious use of tank's came ‘as s stagger- '- ing‘ surprise retire llidlly‘ and they never recov- ered from‘ it. - r south of England.

' Thai-es‘ an old saying that one: n person gets the red soll of Prince Edward Island lri his slices ho will come hack again be it soon or lat- er. The saying is more or less true. for we see the some people visit- ing our shores year after year. Prince Edward Islanders are not- ccl for their honesty, industry iinil loyalty to their employers; wnlch accounts in part. for their being nble to get, jobs ln the larger cities even when unemployment ls rife. Some years ago 1 had the advan- tage of visiting the Edison Elec- trlo Plant at, south Boston, when I met John Grundy, a contractor. whose Job was to keep the boilers and turbines in working order.

Much opposition has developed, both in the press and in Parlia- ment, to the imposition of cer- tain excise taxes on November the 17th. The opposition seems to be directed to the method more than the tax. Taxation by Order-iri- Councll rather than by the elest- ed representstlves in Psrliemon“ seems to be the beefs of the, attack References to King Charles los- lng his head ln an atempt. to collect taxes without: the consent of Parliament hsva been made, and one cartoonist hes produced e very subtle cartoon on that theme. I wonder lf the analogy ls ten- able. King Charles tried to collect taxes which he know would never be sanctioned by en elected Par- liament. The theory of ‘Eespori slble Government had not devel- oped ta the extent. that we un- derstand ll; today. The advisers of King Charles dld not have a majority in Parliament, lri other words they were not responsible tn Parliament. In the present instance the Minister of Finance gave notice that when Parliament met. he would ask it to approve certain excise taxes and that. they would be retroactive to the 17th. of No- vember. Thls ls exactly what hap- pens when the budget is brought. clown. Every budget contains cer- tain changes in the tax structure. These taxes, for obvious reasons, are made effective usually frorr. midnight on the day on which the budget ls delivered. Parliament may not. and usually does not, approve these changes until many weeks and sometimes months have passed. The only difference in thr- prescnt case ls that. the announce- ment or the notice m the tax- payers was made some two weeks before the opening of Parliament. If Parliament does not approve-tho changes their, of course, the min- lstry must. resign. The same ls true if Parliament does not. ap- prove any of the changes in the budget. This is of the essence of Responsible Government. I O O Last Thursday the 0.0.1". mem- ber from Maple Creek, Saskatche- wan, D. J.
