Mr. Norman S. Robertson, K. 0. Presi- dent of North American Iilfe As- surance Co. paid tribute to the late President Mr. D. E. K050i". Mid commented upon changing econom- ic conditions following World War II Referring to the problems now confronting the country, he uld: "The first and most immedllte reconverslon problem is the lift- ing of our wartime controls —a. pro- cess now under way but not com- pleted and one that I think will require both an economic and a mental reconversion. During the war we lived in a completely con- trolled economy. The size and scope of the war effort necessary to oppose the powers of totalitar- ian aggressor: required a detzree of reglmentation almost comparable to that of our foes. 1n the national emergency, these controls worked well and resulted in the maximum application of our efforts in the prosecution of the war and to those who inaugurated and administered these wartime controls all credit should be given, “Such controls. however once the war was won became n. hin- drance although e temporary help in our economic reconverslon. while they operated towards holding down prices for consumers‘ goods on the one hand. at the some time they seriously interfered with the profitable productl. t ' of many of these same goo-d: and interfered with our return to 5n economy of free enterprise. Wars always gen- erate inflationary pressures as we borrow from the future to pay for the present and starve our civilian markets to increase our war poten- tial. These pressures must ulti- mately be relieved and it seems that their relief comes from a ris- ing price levci. I must confess to a little disquiet when I contem- plate our money in circulation and bank deposits which now total gl- most $7.500 million, about two and one half times the figure in 1039. This is a very large increase. His- tory gives many grim examples of the effect of the expansion of money beyond that necessary to conduct the normal business oi the coni- muni-ty. It, therefore, seems lain ccmmon sense to me that wit all this inflation in our money supply we must stop further expansion of money and apply ourselves to the production of goods, both for dom- estic use and for export. I-n other words, We must build our produc- tion to the point where we grow into this existing expanded money su-pply or else it is obvious that each dollar will continue to be worth increasingly less th-zn it was in any community is the amount of useful goods that are produced and made available for use or ex- change; it is the goods and not. the tokens th-at determine our wealth and, therefore, also that we can ply for the costs of U16 War by any monetary magic or Ito me that the real answer to in- ,flatlon is goods-goods of all kinds and descriptions - goods in plenty and the faster we can achieve that goal, the sooner will our infla- tionary pressure be offset and our price levels once more set by the free play of economic forces. "A mental reconversion also necessary. There always have been some who have believed in the continuous control of i; nation's economy. Their philosophy is not one that has ever found much sup- port ln Canada but our experience with a controlled economy in war- time and its evident effectiveness for war purposes has increased the number who are advocating the continuance of these controls it: peacetime, But the main reason that the controls were as effective as they were wee because during wartime the people of Canada were prepared to make sacrifices and to accept limitations on their lib- erty to fulfill our ‘national pur- pose. which I am sure they are not prepared to do in peacetime. if they are- I am seriously misread- ing the character of the people who have been responsible for the p“. gress that this country has achiev- ed in the few years since Confedera- tron. In a free economy the require- ments of supply and demand, which are natural forces, as reflected in price provide in a. natural way for the use to which our resource] are put and the quantity and classes 0f goods offered for sale. Once we move to a contra-lied economy we substitute for these natural forces the activities of a group of con- trollers nnd we must rely on their wisdom in arbitrarily determining the uses to which the resources will be put and the quantity and classes of goods which will be offered for sale. It seems fantastic to me that any group of controllers could have the wisdom to measure nil forces. domestic end external, operating at any time and to adjust their controls to meet the needs of the moment or those of the future. In accepting .3 controlled economy we would also have to be satisfied thui. the controllers would exercise their controls for the best interests of Canada u a whole, detached from the pressures of sectional interest or political expediency -and this is a great deal to hope for. We all know that foremstlng in human af- fairs can never be accurate. Their activities would be by trill and er- ror which involves ex lmentatlon, not experimentation n a labora- tory but experlmentltion directly on the tienis, the patients belnp you an I and the institutions which we have evolved in t; free economy."

Whlc a significant portion of this result is attributable to lower interest earnings in compari- son with policy reserve interest re- quirements, another factor which must be borne in mind is the in- fluence of the very high level of new business.

S. commen- tutor. Her idea Ls that she-like most other women of to-day-ls attempt- ing to do much to spread herself so thinly over a number of inter- ests and o hoard of acquaintances that she hasn't nearly time enough for her family and really good friends. So she is resolving to simplify her life: to look at all her activ- iti€s with a critical eye and the re- vealing question, "is this really im- portant or necessary?" In every case where the answer l; "No"—the activity is going to be thrown out. It's a good idea, isn't it? Occasion- ally to sort out the activities, the t assumed responsibilities, the assoc- lotions that m1 one’: life, in mt the Wly one sorts out the clothes in a closet or the accumulation of possessions stored sway in dremer drawers and trunks. in attics and bssements- to see what Ls still ucn/ICEHIUIE and what ls Just a0 much excess baggage. Interests should change with emoh puslng year. And they ulullly do. But’ all too often wosnen overlook that fact. and instead of getting rid of outgrown or useless activities Just keep piling new interests on top. of the old. That makes for a. cluttered life and a luturled, harried individual -<me who is always ntoonlng. "I never seem to have time for the things I really want to do." So before we make any resolu- tions about taking on new Jobs and now interests in 19411. per-hep; like the woman mentioned. we should sort out the old and see what can be discarded ruthlessly for once all. This is a system bound to make any new year a less hcctflielperiot o! living. _ Science of Sneezing ——- Sneeslnd. like breathing or tlu action of the beast, is involun- tary, and for\the most part. beyond our conscious control.
