Jan. 13—(CP)-'i‘wo mining stocks featured the busiest session on the Toronto Stock Ex- change today since Nov. 18. 1947. Reports late yesterday of ‘an en- couraging copper flnd at Waite Amulet mines in the Rouyn district of Northern Quebec sparked Waite and Wlltsey-Coghlan, a neighbor- ing properly, through today's heavy session. Wiltsey-Coghlen turned pver some 1,115,000 shares of the total volume of 3,395,000, to show a gain of three cents and touch a new high at 37 cents. The stock opened under pressure of realizing sales, boomed ahead to 3'! cents and re- acted to selling pressure to close at 31 cents, about triple yesierdey’: opening price. In view of the market activity. Waite Amulet late today issued a statement outlining available in- formation from the’ latest drilling. A handful of western oils rosc strongly in the last hour. Calgary and Edmonton, Pacific Petroleum, Anglo-Canadian and Central Lcduc showed gains ranging from five to 50 cents. . The exchanges closing index showed golds up .12 at 99.12, base metals up .16 at 109.98, western oils up 2.47 at 58.10. At New York NEW YORK, Jan. 13—(AP)-The stock market teetered a bit lower today in the slowest trading of the week. Losses were small for the moat part with only. a handful exceeding a point. The setback was due more to tepid buying interest rather than any hard-hitting sales pres- sure. Late in the session a. faint pick- up soon puffed out and the general price level at the final bell was at or near the low for the day. Turnover amounted to only 700,- 000 shares. This was 10,000 below yesterday and the lowest since only 640,000 shares changed hands on Jan. 4. At Montreal MONTREAL, Jan. 13 -(CP)_ There was a slightly firmer under- tone at the close of trading on the Montreal Stock Exchange and Curb Market today. Most gains were fractional but two issues mov. 0d ahead more than a point. Trad- ing was lirrhi as only seven stocks had turnovers of more than 1.000 shares each. Mines also moved into higher ground in exceptionally active trading. Bell Rights were traded for the first time. rinsing at $1.17 after hovcrih! around $1.20 most of the day.

"On the evid- ence before the world today, capi- telism works" said Sydney G. Dobson, President. "It works so well that the lowest paid workers 1n mess North American demo- cracies are better fed. better housed. and better supplied with the comforts of life than are the great mesa of the population of coilcctivlst. countries. And they alloy freedom." “Our successful develo -t. of natural resources confirms our be- lief in private enterprise as the best motivating force in an econo- mic system. All the natural re- sources imaginable are useless un- til they are brought out where they can be turned into service- able goods. and the primary seek- er, the most successful finder, and the greatest manufacturer has been private enterprise. “Under this system people think hard and work hard because there are reasonable rewards. The need of incentives is recognized in every country where men are free to choose whether they shell work or not work, and how herd they shall work. “In all collectivist economies - Communlstic or Sociallstic — the idea prevails that dictators or bureaucrats can arrange the lives of people better than people can do ii. for themselves. Capitalism. on the other hand. believes that individuals should be free to ex- press their abilities and thereby bring about a better standard 01' living and a better social order. "Our system hinges on initia- tive, the courage to invest capital. the right to take a reasonable profit from such enterprises es are successful and the obligation to stand such losses as may be incurred in enterprise which fail. THREAT TO FREEDOM “Socialism and Communism do not seek to make the best of peo- ple's minds and enterprise. 0n the contrary, their process is to level all people by dragging down those who might have superior attain- ments. They need a strong cen- tralized government with control over all sections of the economy. They are not systems of freedom, but of rationed democracy, which liberty is doled out like _so- cial security benefits. Incentives are lost, and individual initiative is smothered. Standards of work and product remain unimproved, because jobs are assured without regard for efficiency or perform- ance. The ambition of men d - cllnes to doing just. as much s has to be done and no more. ‘Pro- gress is sacrificed to s. worship of averages-and they are averages somehow arrived at so as be well withlmthe reach of the least progressive. Promotion on merit is abandoned in favour of promotion in turn. Skilled workers receive very little more than unskilled workers. It is only natural that such _a state of affairs should drive the best brains out of a country. "I believe in equality. so long as it is equality of opportunity in education. careers and public life. Socialism is a. force which holds back, while enterprise is a force. which propels us fog-ward, and gives men and women a chance to dis- play their talent and their worth." FOREIGN TRADE Viihile Canada's export figures had shown satisfactory gains dur- ing the past few months. Mr. Dob- son warned that, "there is rioihing in our foreign trade picture today about viliich we can afford to be complacent. "Our present peak of business is being maintained to a large ex- tent by artificial respiration in the form of credits from Canada and the United States. To realize our position we need only imagine what would be the state of‘ our commerce-arid therefore of our standard of living-if the Econo- mic Recnvery Programme and our own loans to Europe were sudden- ly cut off. "It is true that we can examine our rising export business of the past few months with certain sai- Afnnual Meet 'Socialism and communism are not sys Bonk assets - Profits moderately higiier-MDOQOOO ‘in the corrcspundmg period of Sydney G. Dobson, President, declares private enterprise iilejt _ _ ht to take risks and reap re words the mogcr motivating force tems of freedom, social security benefits.“ ond General Manager, reports i948 was 0250 million higher than o- 947. Turning to domestic affairs. Mr. Dobson noted that wlule the pres- sure of demand has tends-d w push prices steadily higher, iieie has been s. levelling oif in the rate oi increase. PRICE S "It is with regard to prices." he said, "that the manufacturer and the business man have lllell‘ great- est worries. No matter how they balance increased labour costs with technical advance, and other 1n- crealed costs with prevention of waste. they are driven. in spite of ell their ingenuity, to raise prices to their customers. "It seems to me that those who work for wages are ill-advised when they rush into dcrrfmd‘ which are planned to give iitem an immediate advantage through increased wages, while losing sight of the rm that there is an 1m- portant long-term aspect to be considered. How mum money a worker makes is far less significant than how much he can buy. and if he is to buy anything at all his employer must be able to stay in competition with manufacturers in the rest of the world." ELECTRIC POWER The importance of Canada's hydro-electric power development to the national economy was em- phasized by Mr. Dobson. Wide dis- tribution of power and its healthy development had been, he said- vltal factors in promoting Canada's industrial progress and maintain- ing a ixigh standard of living. “Each installed hydraulic horse- power. if operated continuously, throughout the year, would be the equivalent of the power obtained from 4 ions of coal. On this basis. ilxe present hydraulic installation in Canada might. be aid to re- present the annual use of about 44 million tons of coal. “There arc still largo reserves available for development. A gov- ernment tabulation shows 40 mil- lion horse-power available. and a little less than eleven million de- veloped by turbine installation.” Discovery of additional oil in Alberta and Saskatchewan was a favorable development to which Mr. Dubson made special refer- ence. “It. has become evident," said Mr. Dobson, "that il/‘csicrn Canada. and particularly Alberta. has become one of the brightest Pfflibects for our future supply. It ls forecast that by 1950 thc oll re- quirements of our Prairies will be satisfied out of home production and there may be a surplus avail- able for other markets. This is important because every barrel of oll produced and consumed in Canada conserves from three to five dollars of United States dollar exchange." CONCLUSION “I believe that more attention needs to be paid to the education of our people in the responsibilities as well as the advantages of democratic citizenship. Too much stress is being placed, these days. on human rights and not enough on human obligations. If it is rea- sonable for a man to expect to be taken care of when disaster it reat- ens or strikes him, he should be educated to know that he needs to contribute his share to the wei- fare of the nation. I deplore 141i- increasing trend among a. portion of the younger generation today to think too much of security and not enough about going out and really accomplishing something for themselves. "We live in a world where we Jiould not expect to receive some- thing for nothing. This ls an old, oli‘ law recognized in economics. and no discovcry'by any political party or reform faction has ever found a permanent substitute. Queer creeds based on ease and‘ leisure may rise and flourish for u time, but they always run into difiiciilly which can b». overcome only by work." GENERAL DIANAGEIVS ADDRESS Mr. James Muir, Vice-President and General Manager, reviewed the bank's 1948 Annual Report and noted i! at new high water marks in the bank's progress had been established during 1948.

"\‘.e have had a half- ceniurys experience in this re- gal-d," Lg said. "Our oldest branch outside of Canada and Newiound- land, and still'in operation, is that. in Havana, Cuba. opened fifty years ago this spring. Apart from those in Newfoundland, we have at present 62 branches outside Canada, and. in addition to this direct representation which covers New York. London.

Your bank is in a pre- ferred, if not. unique, position to facilitate, as it has for many years facilitated. Canada's foreign trade activities. NEED FOR ENTERPRISE "Whatever the outlook for Can- adian business in the short run, our long-run position would be secure. For our economic fortunes as a. nation depend, not on dis- turbing short run ups and downs, but on our tremendous wealth in. natural resources. Of course. na- tural resources are of little use un- less they are developed. And l‘. agree heartily, therefore. with what: the President has just said about ilze need for ambition and enter- prise. “We Canadians might appraise ourselves and our possibilities a. little higher than we are inclined to do. No country 0n earth has a. future that promises to surpass or cvcn to equal ours. Whenever we forget that fact. some Canadian voice must speak out. reminding us boil} of the greatness of our resources and the responsibility that rests upon us to iakc a. ma- ture and an ardent view of Can- ada's capacity for economic de- velopment. Then, surely, a breed of courageous, clear-sighted and Can- ada-conscioux men will arise who will become acutely seized g! the fact that we are in duly bound to develop these resources and en- dowments and deal with item in our day for the greater good of generations of Canadians yet to (201119.
