' UIIAKLOTTETOHIV, SATURDAY, MAY ‘I. 1949 Our Newfoundland Trade Prince Edward Island did a $3,000,000 trade with Newfoundland last year and the prospects this year, with Newfoundland now a Province of Canada, would appear to be brighter than ever. Disquieting reports, however, have been circulated recently of numerous complaints from Newfoundland importers about our shipments of produce and livestock. lt is strange that these complaints were not aired in our Legislature lost session, as they evidently applied to last year's business and the Government must be presumed to have had some knowledge of the matter ot that time. Iif the situation now is as serious as is alleged, the question arises who is responsible? There is no doubt as to the superior quality of our Island farm products, nor of the generally high reputation they enjoy in other Provinces. What has happened—overnight, one might soy —1with regard to Newfoundland? The Provin- cial Government maintains a trade agent, one of whose duties it is to see that any practices endangering our trade relations are promplly remedied. There must be laxity somewhere, either in enforcing existing regulations or in fail- ing to introduce measures which may be neces- sary to counteract neglect or inexperience on the part of our Island exporters. lt is understood that the Government, through its Crown corporation operating under the Department of Industry and Natural Re- sources, is contem-plating establishment of o steamer service of its own to Newfoundland, with cold storage facilities to handle meat, poul- try and other perishable commodities. This might prove an excellent idea, but if it ls intended to put the scheme into operation this year it should have been broached as a matter of Gov- ernment policy when the Legislature was in ses- s1on In the meantime, everything possible should be done to straighten out the difficulties which are said to have arisen over last season's trade with Newfoundland. lt is for the Government to take the lead, and it co-uld start right away by calling a general meeting of our producers and shippers and laying all its cards frankly on the table. llarylng Party Fortunes Already in the Federal election campaign Government supporters are arguing that "only the - Liberals" can win a ma-jority of seats in the next Parliament. They base this contention on the fact in the Parliament just dissolved the Conservatives had only 69 members out of a total 245 and that it is inconceivable that they would be able to double their strength 1n one election so as to have an overall majority in the next House. - Such reversals of party fortune, however, are not only conceivable but frequently happen. The Globe and Mail recalls that the Liberals in- creased their strength in the Commons from 8B in the I930 election to I7I in that of I935, a gain of roughly I00 per cent. Conservative strength jumped from 85 in I908 to I33 in I9ll; and from 9I in I926 to I37 in I930. Britain in recent times has shown a more spectacular swing. Labor won only I54 seats in the last elec- tion before the war but won 393 the next time, whi-ch was in I945, the country went to the polls. This was a gain of I55 per cent from one elec- tion to another. , These changes happen because a relatively small turnover of votes can transfo-rm a Par- liament. The Canadian Government of the post five years has held cffice on the strength of endorsement by only SI per cent of the electors. Liberal candidates in I945 polled 2,352,557 votes against 2,267,703 far other parties. Besides them is new no such thing as a party standing at Ottawa because there is no House of Commons and there are no MP's. At dissolution lost week the process of choosing o national Parliament began again from scratch. There are 262 seats to be filled, and in each one of them the people have a sovereign right to elect anybody they like. Who has represented them up till now necd have no bearing what- ever on their decision. They can elect 262 Lib- erals if so inclined, or 262 Progressive Conserva- tives or 262 CCF-ers. Election doy is their day, their privilzge and opportunity. Any politician who presumes to tall them in advance that only his party has a chance is calling them sheep. Pralrle Farm llehabllltatlon The basic accomplishments of the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Act passed by the Domin- ice government in I935 are a pattern which might well be applied to soil conservation ev- erywhe-re i-n Canada, states Professor F. K. Hare, assistant professor o-f geography at McGill Uni- varsity. These accomplish-meats are (I) soil has been saved from erosion; (2) the wheat former in many areas is not now completely dependent on wheat as his only source of income since pastures have increased possibilities for raising cattle; (3) a large scale irrigation and water-use pro- gram has been developed. Writing in the current issue of C-I-L Oval, Professor Hare claims that under the PFRA some 29,900 dams were constructed by I946. By March 3i of that year, SILOIXLOM was want fer the entire project-a trivial rum compared to the gross voluo of agricultural production in the Prairie Provinces which, in a normal year, ex- ourll 31.009.009.009- ln I946, thfprofossar writes, 1,361,440 acres of rehabilitated pasture comprising ortod 55,060 cattle, "$20 horses and up.

"When the British Budget was revealed in the House of Commons, I was in mid-ocean. Every- bcdy (writes Mr. George McCu-llagh, of the was going to happen. Latte in the afternoon, the news of what Sir Stafford Crlpps had to say to the House c1f Commons was announced. I think the most revealing, the most characteristic thing about the response was a remark which Winston Churchill made, his face serene, gentle and smiling: ‘It's a big job; I did it five times.’ This, I believe, is the secret of it all. The leader of His Majesty's Opposition, recognizes how hard a job it is, even if the job is done by his politi cal enemy. As long as political chiefs can put themselves in their opponent's places, they will never fight blindly and thoughtlessly- They will think and understand, which is the hardest thing to do in present-day politics. So, as one is about and perhaps even nebulous are yet vely tell- ing. They give one hope and faith in man.
