W. JAMES, Editor. Labor Union Leaders Taklng a Destructive Course A well-knowu writer stated recently: "Everybody loses in a strike, those who strike probably mast of ail even if they win it." Hie ias wrong in one particular. En- trenched labor leaders, highly paid and ar- rogant, risk nothing but a grow'ing public resentinent against themselves and the generally uninformed workers whom tliey profess to lead. These leaders get their pay, win, loose or draw, iin good times or bad. The coal mine union boss, John L. Lewis, is reported ta get a salary of $50,000. a year and an unlimited expense account. lis concern and those like Iiùm, are ont for personal power. This' was shown iu a rec eut issue of Liberty Magazine containing a personal sketch of Mr. Lewis, described as the most powerf ul figure, in America. But what of the workers? R.ecently a noted advisor to the Trade Union Fellows pointed ont that as a resuit of strikes since war closed, the workers will not recover the money lost to thein by the action of their leaders until the year 1953, even nder full- turne employmeut, every day until then and at the increased rates won. But can anyone gnarautee that these leaders will not again throw them ont in the course of those seven years? Late events show that the public is getting fed np, and even the workers theinselves witli the destructive course pre- sently followed by irresponsible labor lead- ers. The railroad strike iu the U.S.A. brouglit ont public opinion. In general, the thesis holds that everybody loses iu a strike, uotably farmers and the rank and file of factory workers. A strike, for instance, in the major inustry of Bow- manville, wonld lose to employees at least $100,000 per month with ail the consequences that follow. Thc Statesman holds that every factory worker is entitled to every last dollar and every meaus of steady employ- ment under the best of working conditions, that the economny of this country eau afford. .And the saine goes for farmers ail alonog the hune as, w-cl as those who risk tlieir resources to create emiploynient. But nîo proper balance eau be aclîieved under the vicions circle contintually spiraling to-day under the direc- tion o leaders ahnost whlly concerned with thîcîr persoîîai amblitions. The Campaign for the Churches We are glad to noate that the campai-il for funds for the three Protestant Cliurches- United, Presbyterianl and Anglican is mneet- ing witli very good success in ahl cases. Il goes ta show that tle people are quite sym- pathetie toward thie cause and realize that their support boili financially anîd morally is absolutely uecessary. It is very necessary that ail members and adliereuts get iu their contributions as quickly as possible in order that the drive eau be closed off. The main thing is that the response lias been splendid lu ail cases and shows that Protestanîts are solidly behind their church- es wlien assistance of any kind is needed. It is vitally important lu these limes that this spirit be manifest on all occasions. It is just as ilecessary that interest be taken ini the work of the varions cdurclies bv- the mnembers and adlierents in order thaithtI churci may carry on its work and further the spread of the faiths.

But as a mani who lias long been outstanding lin his chain- pionship of the veterans' cause and who does not shirk his responsibilities, Maj.-Gen. Price was a singnlarly fortunate choice for a position of trust wliere leadership ivill be re- quired. It is safe to predict that the for- tunes and future of the Canadian Legion are safe ini lis hands. Where IS' Canada ? A Question Seriously Âsked Members of the Bowmanville Rotary Club were literally astounded when President C. W. Slemon told one of his experiences while holidaying in Southern California during the past winter. 11e presented himself as a visitor to one of the Rotary Clubs down there and as requiredI gave his name and stated lie came from Canada. The Rotary receptionist, prommnent in local circles, anx- ions that the introduction should be pro- perly made, enquired: "Canada, yes, yes; and just where is Canada?" Anyone know- ing Dr. Slemon mast certainly knows lie was stating a fact in relating this episode. And episode is a mild termin relating this amaz- ing admission, innocently revealed by a member of a great international organizatian. Another revealing sideliglit on how little Canada is really known across the line, was told by Senator Hlorner iu the Canadian Senate on the debate dealing with Canada Day. He felt that people down soutli liked to poke fun at Canada. He qnoted from a IU.S.A. geography text recently in use whidli Why MORE People M ake Loans ut HOUSEHOLD 'FINANCE MIHousehold Finance than from any other loan company in Canada (over 140,000 in 1945). Sudh great preference means you get more at Household, more in service, consideration, and most important of ail, reduced rates.' See the sample costs made possible by Household's reduced rates. For example, a $100 loan repaid in 6 monthly instalments costs only $5.30; a $300 6-pay- ment loan only $15.96. When you make your loan at Household, you choose the pay- ment plan that fits your budget best. Payments shown include land north of the 49th parallel, covered with snow and ice mot of the year and mortgag- ed ta the International Harvester Oompany." We cannot vanch for the Senatr as we ean for Dr. Siemon, but as we said, these things are certainly revealing. It will be recalled that ail editorial iii The Statesmani, May 2, dre'v attention to a niew. brilliant, illnstrated text, "Canada and lier Northern Neiiyhbors," and that 75,000 cop- ies were being distributed to schools iii the IU.S.A. The idea is to mnake Canada better known iu the U.S.A. and to inspire good- ivili. This text was brouglit to our attention by Geoffrey Andrew, Director, Canadiail Information Service, Ottawa. We suggest tliat Canadianl Rotary Clubs shonld vote funds to distribute copies of this text among Rotary Olnbs in the U.S.A. It miglit be a good plan too, for Seiiators able to cet about witlout crutches, to address public meetings south of line when time cati be taken off from their arduons duties. The treasnry board might be induced to foot expenses. discounts, extras of any kind. Loas Mode SImpI, QulCklY You can arrange your Household loan by telephone. Or visit the Household office if you prefer. You need no help from outsiders to get your money at Household- noguarantorsno bankable security. If you can make the monthly pay- ments shown, you can ask for any amount you need. And usually, get your cash the same day you apply. Remember, you can get your loan for less at Household than at any other Small Loans Company in your community.

Dashing cow- boys, beautiful cowgirls and col- orful horses wili be seen at this big 3-day show; which is present- ed as an added attraction to this year's Rotary Fair; incidentaliy the 22nd annual gala event. 0w- ing to the extent of the program, this year's Fair is being held in Alexandra Park. "A completely new show, big- ger and better than last year," is the pronouncement of Leo Hearn, general manager of the Rodeo. "The people will see trick and fan- cy riding at the.fastest pace ever seen in this area. This rodeo show really will be sensational. It is a grand show from finish to start- something that everyone should see, young and old alike," Mr. Hearn declared. There will be 24 thrilling acts and ail the cowboys and cowgirls participating are champions ini their own right. They hail from Leaps and Bounds Reverting to editorial comment by The Cobourg Sentinel-Star that farm produc- tion is increasing by "leaps and bounds" we suggest perusal of bulletin No. 99, issued for May, 1946, the Monthly Dairy Report, Ontario Department of Agriculture. -It lists April %production as follows: Creamery but- ter is down 12.5 per cent. Cheddar cheese is down 35.8 per cent. Processed milk pro- ducts are down 10.7 per cent. And cumu- lative production of milk produets for the first three months, 1946, are 13.2 per cent less than the same period a year ago and they were declining at that time.

A highlight of the show is the moving drama presented by Chipp Morriss with his educated cow pony. This feature has earned great applause wherever it has been shown. It is expected that more than 10,000 people will view the Rodeo éjuring the three days.
