Is it any xyoudcr under these circumstances that a deputy, for itistance, should aspire to fill his pri11cip;1l's shoes? For years he has been “dc- yiliug" f11r i chief, for years he has been carrying a considerable part of the load which rightly should have been on his chicf’s shoul- ders. What more natural than that he and those having‘ dealings with him, should come to the c1111clttsioi1 that he could very well carry on as chicf himself. Nevertheless he has been in the position of an irresponsible minister, not ac- countable to the Legislature or the electorate for anything he has done or left undone, the very antithesis of democracy, and still all powerful. There is an explanation, if not an excuse for all this. The ministers do not receive sufficient remuneration according to the standard of that position to enable them to devote themselves wholly to running the government. Time was when. $2,000 or $3,000 per annum was hand- some remuneration for a commissioner as he was then called. or even Premier. Then a deputy would be receiving $800 or $900, never more than $1,000 whilc underlings considered them- selves fortunate if they received $500. The cost of living was low, the competition for jobs overwhelming, and the business transacted rou- tine and, so far as the underlings were concern- ed, not of such importance as to demand high grade mental capacity or technical efficiency. Today it is different, and for the most part l1; s .‘ x1111, \11'1' 7.1 1".-1‘l\_ Jninisters cannot afford to forsake their ori- vate businesses to accept s portfolio; consequent- ly the direction and responsibility of adminis- tration largely falls upon officialdom, hence it is we find officials and not ministers attend- ing important conferences, making suggestions and coining to decisions on important questions involving the vital interests of voters and tax- payers whom they do not directly represent. The descent from democracy to bureaucracy is thus made easy. Would it not be far better to pay our Premier say $ 6,000 per anuum, our other ministers $4,- 000 or $5,000 per ant-tum, and compel them to devote the whole of their time to their respective offices? This. at first blush, may appear revolutionary and cxtrav.'1g.'1nt, l111t on titaturer thought it will be realized it is true economy, more likely to attract ablcr men to provincial politics, and in the long run provide more efficient, more ag- grcssivc and twire effective service in the best and truest dcmocratic interests of the Province.

Mr Bracken's Four Principles The basic principles of social planning us conceived by Hon. John Bracken, Progressive Conservative leader, were thus enunciated in a recent speech: _ l. Every man should liavc as an assured right the opportunity to make his own living; and every man should have also the assured right that he will be rewarded fairly for his work. 2. Every man must accept responsibilities as well as rights if such a guarantee is to mean a high standard of living and not a low one. 3. Every man mttst at least carry his own weight in the community if he can, and not loan unnecessarily on his neighbors. Other- wise such a guarantee, instead of bringing the substance of progress, will be a drag on in- itiative and l1ring rctrogrcssiou to the conv- mttnity as :1 tvltole. . 4. The slate must co-opcralc with enterprise and step in to provide employment when, for any reason, enterprise fails to do so fully. - EDIIORIAL NOTES- The New Brunswick" govcrntncut bill chang- ing the basic standard time it: that province from .\tl:u1tic Standard 111 lfastcrti Standard (same us Quebec) has bet-it giVttl lbifll reading and passed. lt now stands for Royal Assent.

I i i i Another reduction has been made in the num- bor of types, shapes, sizes and voltages in elec- tric lamps in a. restrictive order of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. All decorative lamps have been eliminated, and colored lamps are limited to one style, in three colors only, red. blue and green. Many special types of lamps have been eliminated for other than essential wartime uses. Lamps will be made now in only three voltages, 115, r20 and 125, in place of five formerly the IIO and 13o voltage being eliminated. Household lighting lamps, in ‘the inside frosted types, in t5, 25, 4o, 6o and roe watt size will still be available, but only in the three permitted voltages, according to Hardware and Metal, Toronto, Ont. The order reduces the number of types, shapes, sizes and voltage by 57.4 per cent, including reductions also in auto- mobile lamps and flashlight bulbs. n1 1c a a All calculations we have so far seen, says a medical contemporary, and our own experience, indicate that the cost of complete medical ser- vice (providing only those services which can be produced by physician and ancillary services) will be at least $24 per person per year-a bill of $264,000,000 per annum on the basis of l1,- ooo,ooo population. It cannot be assumed that this figure will take care of all the accumulated backlog of medical care. There are literally thousands of hernias, diseased tonsils and fe- male repairs which will flood in during the first two to five years. True, this is work which should be done and the advantages would be manifold. It is also true, however, that it will at least double the cost of operating such a plan during the first five years of operation and this cost must be met. To proceed on any other as- sumption will undoubtedly lead to bitter disap- potntment. a a n1 a Good news for tea. drinkers.

A cheap outfit ln the long run ls the m.sl. ex- pensive for. apart from doing the work unsatisfactnrLy, lt calls for a continual outlay for re alrs as well as for more wales for t: cperntlon. A good snow plow will last for many years and the best plow share ls one that has a wheel ln front. of lt. to keep the cutting edge firm the and curbs. The brush must, of course, be made‘ or the strongest fibre. The cost of the plow and brush together, with the necessary steel attachments, wlll be in the neighborhood of $100000. Inc matter of the m.tive power is one regarding wnicn men, who have had experience tn snow clear- ing. diner uonslseralny. There is I. choice between a truck with whecLs turd PUJJGI‘ tires carryung a heavy cud to keep the tires in close con- tact with the pavement. a tractor with wheels and tires, and a. tract- or with steel treads. Over a period vf ten years. although the last- meiltioned would ccst the most, the two former would probably call for wbnlrs that would make the ulti- mate cost about the same in all cuscs. Such being the case, it wlll ce_ as well to figure tn the higher Drlced motive power, vlz., the tract- or with treads. This costs. Includ- llls war tax, about $2500.00. In ether words, the total cost of a single outfit would be abut $3500.00 or $7000.00 for two sets. In addition to the machines. the cost of labor, gasoline, oil and repairs must be c nsldered. Now, ln order that the cost of clearing the sidewalks may be figured independently of any other clvlc undertaking, I think, perhaps, that the tirst cost for the two out- fits should be paid on a sinking fund principle. during a period cl’ ten years. at. an Interest rato of 4 percent, which apparently la the interest rate of Charlottetown de. belttures. Dlvldlng $7000.00 into ten years would call for an annual pay. ment to thls slnklng fund of $700.00. As these annual lnsta merits could be invested at a rate of, at least, 4 percent, interest on the 1:an need not be included ln the cost figures.
