CIVIC ELECTION NÎOTES It looks as if there wlll be no dearth of candidates for Uic ôf- fices of town council this ycar. Aircady several newcomerm have aunouuced their, intention to get their names on the nomination list. There is no doubt that, as alwaym, certain of tise present office-isolders will oniy give up this "labor ai love" ($60 per year) under. pressure. As to tise ather offices there is less likelihood of Uic contest le- ing keen. Barring "dark horses," only anc man Dm at present lu thse public oye as logical choice for Mayor - hlm narne? - we would not; be foolis onough to risk being wrong. 0 Thse individual activity lu dig- ging up likely candidates. for these offices sud sponsoring Uiem Dm rnost praiseworthy.

As for Uic three Board of Edu- cation mon sud anc Public Utili- ties Commismioner ta le elected there bhas boen little talk 30 far.

Any who fai'.belndtheemonths are to be removed fromn the lists. I'im going to see the job through and maybe step on sonip tocs - but PUi step on yours first, Mr. Editor. Who is responsible for so many get#ng so far behind? I say you are as much to blame as they ame Instead of insisting upon 9triot business dealings) you go soft. aud hate to ask for payment. What Dm the resuit? Well $2.00 grows into $4.00 the second yeax' then $6.0, thon $8.00 and so on Up. The higher it goes, the more formidable it looks and thus the 7reason it im put off. In short, you 1have been helping people get into debt by not being firm. As you go sof t, they grow hard -e t case hardened, neglectful, lndMferent. In other words they become less than good citizens, and you are in the. same boat too because you were resting on your om swhen you ought to have steered a true course. Now it's up to me to bring both you and themn back on solid busi- ness grounds - then you can al start fresh with mutual self re- spect. I've had an eye-opener making Up these lists. I find some sub- scribers were behind as much as 5 years-or more. Two years in arrears is common, and their neighbors -yes, even they them- selves would say they are 100% in paying bills. Maybe they are - in every- thing save the Statesman account and the doctor's bill. 1 have billed ail past due sub- scribers this week., If the letters; arer't returned I will know they received them. Those who negleet this notice will invite stronger methods - *and I won't stand for you, Mr. Editor, butting in oxtending the time. Getting back to strictly business rnethods and squared up accountS will' mean that everyone is in a happier frame of mmnd. Now the warý is on and Christmas is near things ought to shape up botter. Thon I can fix these Audit Bureau reports the way they should read. The very fact that I've told you off will please lots of people who rub their hands in glee when an editor is put on thse pan - and they will settle up because of that fact. Ali of which is straight talk from. - AI. In l charge of Collections. C*MADIAM Rab CROSS nEiTeors Mail 266 Armadale Ave., Toronto November 16, 1940 Dear M4r. James,- For several years now a group of mothers of students at Hum- berside Coflegiate have been studying history, current events and contemporary memoirs. Last year we spent weeks on the study of "Union Now" by Clarence Streit. Briefly, it is a plan for international government with the saine aim as the League of Nations but a diffreent method. It showed why the League could flot work because of the necessity for a unanimous vote and be- cause League members represent- ed governments and flot peoples. When President Roosevelt has said of "Union Now" - "It is the sole constructive idea since. the post-war collapse of international politics", and Prime Minister Win- ston Churchill offered this very thing to France last June - it merits our careful study. The Canadian Association for the union of the free democratie peoples of the world has been or- ganlzed here in Toronto sud char- ter applied for.
