A Real Farmers’ Government Lu electing a Progressive Conservative govern- ment to power in Ontario the people of that Prov- ince not only voted out a. discredited Liberal ad: ministration Zlfhey also voted in a real “iflrlnrr5 government". This is evident from the follow- ing statements from the Globe and_Ma_il. "The new government of Ontario, implement- ing oiie of its pre-elcction promises, gathered nearly 400 farmers in Toronto last week and 1"" vested a coinmittcvof 21 choscn by tho Conffl“ encc with more authority than possibly has evcr been given to any farm group in Canada.

The purpose of both meetings is to consider the poll- tica‘. situation as disclosed in the August by-eler- tion ministerial defeats, and in the outcome of the Provincial election in Ontario, which provcd s0 disastrous to the Liberal party, and to formulaic such mcasurcs as may seem CXPCKIIBH! 10 C°Pe with tho zidvt-rsc political currents.

Premier Mackenzie King 1s not likely to allow the people to forget that Canada was host at the suggestion of President Roosevelt to the world's most memorable meeting of the democratic powers and that Canada’: con- tribution to the united war effort was accorded recognition both from Prime Minister Churchill and_Presitle_nt Roosevelt in their public utterances during and after the conference. This not- withstanding the fact thatlthe Hon. Mr. Cardin declared in the House of Commons, that Mr. King never made s. move to help in the war until goaded thereto by the Opposition, a n- u n- Scores of groups and agencies in, Canada are busy planning for the post-war world in the midst of a considerable degree of uncertainty as to what that world is likely to be. The planners include departments of Government, committees specially created by governments, associations of employers, experts in the employ of large firms and labor organizations. Planning is being dis- cussed in connection with three objectives; i. Reestablishment of members of the armed forces in civilian life. 2. Provision of empl0ym€nt on a permanent basis for members of the forces and war industrial workers. 3. Establishment of an improved system of social security. The over- all influence of world conditions on conditions in Canada, however, leads to an enhanced Can- adian interest in international affairs. As one of the large trading nations of the world Canada is interested in a stable system of international trade, and the development of such a policy is a first essential. a s n- s Some genius of a. bureaucrat in the vDepart- ment of Agriculture at Ottawa has been study- ing the ‘Psychology’ of pullcts, and has advised tlte C. P. that abrupt entry to the hen house in a morning tends to reduce egg production. Ac- cording to his theory, which he says is substan- tiated by several farmers, the best way to sce- ure a continuance of steady layers, is for the farmer to announce his arrival at the hen house by whistling at the door. Asked what particular tune the farmer should ivhistlo-“It doesn't mflttrr". answered the bureaucrat. “Mozart or Turkey in the Straw." There's bureaucracy for you, turning the farmer's wife's work into a c856 of "he who pays the fiddler calls the tune.” i i‘ I i ‘ Flying Officer A. T. Parkes, recruiting pro- motion officer for No. ! 5 recruiting centre, R.C. A. F., announces that young lads, hitherto con- sidered too young may now become members‘of the air crew branch of the R. C. A. F., authrity for the enlistment of 17-year-old: having been received. However, ivhile boys considered suit- able for air crew training will be enlisted at the age of r7 provided they have the written per- mission of their parents, they will not be taken into the air force until a later date. Those elig- ible under this new policy will be enlisted as “boy" standard air crew and paid one day's pay and subsistence allowance amounting to $1.95. They will then return home to await call some time after they have attained the age of 17 1-2 years but‘ preferably 17 years and nine months. On recall they \vill then be transferred m the standard aircrew list and receive regular R. C. A. F. rates of pay. This is the system in vogue in England and has been found to work satis- factorily. Iiii Commercial production of sand and gravel in Canada during 1941, the latest year for,which ‘figures are available, totalled 31,604,806 short tons valued at $10,375,723 as compared with 31,375,415 short tons worth $1,759,245 in the previous year. In the totals for both I94: and I940 are sand and gravel from all sources, in- cluding recoveries by dredges and material uscd by railroads as ballast and by mines as backfill. 0f the total sand and gravel output in r941, there were 19,769,793 tons used for concrete roads, and 4,836,908 tons s; railroad ballast. In addition there were produced 2,192,405 tom 0f straight run sand for building, 38,309 tom for moulding; 37,541 tons as cOre sand and 92,018 tons for other purposes. The quantity of crushed gravel produced during the year under review amounted to 3,274,510 tom, and 1,363.31? tom of sand were employcdms mine fill. Firms (in- cluding individuals) reported u lctivc in the Canadian sand and gravel industry numbered 1,399. Of these, 902 were located in Quebec, 422 in Ontario, 28 in British Columbia and lesser numbers in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Mani- toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
