In time of war like the present, Hr. Fergu- son said, life insurance companies have as their special responsibility the meeting of death and disability claims resulting from war casualties and assistance in the Govcrnuienfs task of fin- ancing the war and resisting inflation. In the period of post-war reconstruction they will also have their special functions to perform, as for instance, in the financing of housing and of new business enterprise. “They will not fail," he added; “to do their part in co-opcra- lion with all other sections of the community in the upbuilding of the greater Canada. of the future. The Arguments Men Use Speaking at a political meeting the other day (just about the time our Charlottetown airport delegation was vainly trying to get an appointment with him), llon. Colin Gibson, Minister of National Revenue and Acting Min- ister for Air declared: ' “You will find people who tell you ‘there is no difference between the old parties.’ Well, that: is simply not in accordance with the facts two leaders in more than 5o years. The Con- servatives have changed their leader at least six limes since the last war." According to this test, the Liberal party is not only greater than the Conservative party; it is also greater than the British Conservative party, which has changed its leaders five times since the last war. Indeed, according to Mr. Gibson's test, remarks an exchange drily, the only party in the world today that comes any- where near the Canadian Liberal party is the Nazi party in Germany, which has had Herr Hitler as its leader for more than 2o years. he Five-Year Men The position of the men who have been brought home from overseas after five years of service is still in doubt. The available facts are that about 1,150 of thcsc incn returned to Canada in December, and another 1,000 are expected in the prcscnt month. The men appear to have been drawn from all parts of the coun- try.

One point stressed at the poultry producers conference at Moncton, says the Telegraph- Jaurnal, was the need of improving production. This could be accomplished by better housing for the flocks, improving the ranging or pastur- ing conditions and by cutting down on the mor- tality rate of young chicks. From the reports of the deliberations of those present at the meeting it appears that there is a full realiza- tion of the needs of the industry. The fact that the three provinces are not producing enough eggs to supply the home demand was promin- ently’ featured and discussions indicated a de- sire to right this condition and eventually cuter the foreign markets. The findings of the as- sembled poultry men will be awaited with kccn interest and it is hoped that their efforts will be rewarded. a w w w Cabinet Ministers were not too busy to see New l3runswick's Premier on Tuesday, though they could not spare time to see Mr. Lester Douglas, M.
