Fisher, in accepting the presi- dency, said: "During the past few years, we have become more tuliy aware et the international im- plications of the old truth that man cannot live unto himself, and that security for the individuel is impossible as long as there is national or international insecur- ity anywhere in the whole world.

The poor showing et the Socialists in the general election confirmed the trend notcd carlier in the Saskatchewan provincial vote. The CCF took a beating even in urban centres on June 27 but when it came te rural Canada Mr. Coidweil's supporters didn't even run a poor thîrd. By now even the CCPF must realize that Canadian tarmer et heart is an individuaiist and a capitehist. He either owns or hopes to own his own land. He insista on running his own show. In Canada, as in ail other coun- tries, the farmer has most to lose te Socialism. Whercver the state or a dictator has stepped in te as- sume supreme control, as in Rus- sia, the Balkans, or in Spain, it has always been the farmer who lias put up the. most resistance.

Apparenthy, the only alternative for a reader set upon having the paper will be te erder by mail. There is some- thing pecuiar ln the hoyalties and likes et people when a news- paper is involved. Politics do net appear te figure as largehy in the aubscribers rea- soning as ia former days. Some et the features which have stohen the political strenghohd are the cemics, the stock markets (ive and otherwisc) and certain daily features which really endear themsclves in the minds et read- crs. Chidren in the home couhd quite conceivably dictate the choiqe ef a paper. Chldren soon form their own testes, and dad's politics can "go hang" se long as the publishers are printing and picturing what Uic youngsters like. That heads too, into the realm et sport, and even the "Old man" may be secretly admiring the papcr's representatien et sperting events, and openly condemning its poitical leanings. Net se many years ago, you knew your neighbour's pohities by the. newspaper lie took. Today yeu hazard a guess as te just what leie l interested in. It may be the "ads," the. markets, the comics, the sports, the editorials, the daily sections o! discussion which identify some particular paper, or it may be simphy habit- ual custom. Judging people by the paper they read is as unrehi- able as judging a book by its cover. 7%e most delicate, the most' sensible of ail pleasures, consists in promoting the pleasure of others.-Bruyere.

The figures of course are for the United States, but the ap- plication verying slightly in detail might apply to Canada. *The argument emphaticalîy sup- ports the case that capital invested *in plant construction in machin- ery, machine tools and equipment is abetter insurance of productive emphoyment than a simular amn- ount empkuyed In governmen-t spending. We say productive cm- ployment, because there la one torrn ot employrnent that gev- ernment spending expands en- ermously, this is the unproductive effort et those who must secure the funds for goverment spending, distribute them and account for them. Here you come upon the serious phase et government spending. It provides jobs for the wrang group et people. It provides jobs that do net provide goods and hence can neither make jobs for others nor help reduce the cost et goods and of our living generally . The figures prove the sober tact that for, every $18,000 spent by governrnent one new goverment employee is needed te administer it. But look et the other aide et the picture. The figures et new capi- tal information trom 1929 te 1948 inclusive, omitting the war years 1942 te 1945, set against the total et fluctuating emphoyment, shows that a new Job la provided by cv- cry $1,500 invested in tools and equlpment. New private capital provides 93.8% et the jobs and government spending the balance.

Money for Ser- vice Work, which is actually cemmunity welfare work, is rais- ed by varieus methods, but the greatest revenue cornes from games et chance. There seems to be an instinctive gambling spir- t in most of people, whether they bc children or grown-ups. There are many parents who are net ser- oushy opposed te adulta partic- pating in games et chance, when the proceeda go towards a charit- abic cause, but thcy stoutly main- ain that chiidren et tender years shouid net be aliowed te play these games because it creates in themn the urge te gamble. The other day, liowever, a local businless mani was juat as tirrn In Lîs conviction that chidren should eot be harred from phaying these games et chance. He argued that rf chlîdren leara these matters in their eerly yeers then they row up te know how te handle ituations wlien thcy pass the age )f minora. He eddcd let children row up the liard way, don't îake things tee easy for them, lacli them the right and the Nrong way ef living, let thern take iceir knocks when young and they fll grow up te be men et decision ind backbone.
