ED170RIALS The "Tight Money Being one of thase individuals wha arrlved before the twentieth century and have lived in Canada since, we are getting a littie tired of hearing so much talk about "tight money", states The Acton Free Press. In al aur life we have neyer seen znoney so loose as it is at the present. We do need some tight spending and it would not create any hardship but it might enable us ta get on an even road between the tight money that was prevalent 17 years &go and the fast anid base money talk of today. Many aider folks will flot remember the days when labourers' wages were $1.50 for a l-hour day. But some may recal the days fram 1930 ta the early '40's of this century when jobs were scarce and money was scarcer and rnany good citizens and familles had ta be helped ta just get enough food and shelter ta keep exiýting. We do not want ta set the return of tho8e "tight- rnoney" days any more than you do. We like aur present standard of living much A notable human tendency is ta con- sider that far f ields are greener-to be enthusiastie concerning the wondrous scenic and other advantages ta be found elsewhere and overlook the numeraus assets and attractions ta be enjoyed right around home. In Ontario there is something for everyone-for every vacationist ta sec and do-whether he be ardent angler, hunter, camera fan, lover of nature, culture or history, or just sightseer. Ontario's myriad sparkling lakes and rippling streams offer some of tht best fishing in thtworld. Hunters return home well rewarded in most cases. An 80,000 mile system of toîl-fret, paveti highways enables onetot reach most holiday areas within a few hours. Historie sites, s u m m e r theatres, rnuseums and art galleries tell the colorful, 1The advantages the city worker has over the tarmer are mort apparent than real. Ht gets more cash and he gels it ottener than the tarmer, but he spends it more easily and on things of less lasting valtie than a farm. ,And, at tht end o! his active career, he seidom has more than a pension ta depend on, while the farmer bas a proptrty which bas. steadily increased in value tbrough the years. Tht money be didn't spend bas gant into bis farm and is stili bis. In asking 80 rnany tbings o! the gav- ernment, tht farmers are asking ta be 'Th- auttoinotive vebicie, wbich bas so vagrioùsly altered and betîered al aur lives o'tëeY. tht past bal! century, bas le! t us with tht problem thal, in ttrms of its sate usage, man bas nat yeî masîered Ibis machine. It is a terrifying thought, but il seems that, booking int tht future, the only possible prediclion is: the more cars tht more fatalities. In 10 years tht number of traffic deatbs in Canada bas nearly doubled, and this year will considerably exceed 3,000. Il is small comfort that in tht same period tht number of fatalities per 10,000 register- ed vehicies bas almosî balved. Thetotal of nearly 10 deaths per day is tht command- ing figure. It may be Ihat sometbing couid be donetot cul Canada's mounting accident Each year forest and bush fires destroy miore than $20,000,000 of Canada's national resources. Across the country 6,000 f ires of this type can be expected each year according to the Ail Canada Insurance Federation. Human carelessness causes most forest and bush fires. Unseasonally warm, dry weather this year could cause additionai losses. The Federation, xvhich represents more than 200 Canadian fire, automobile and casualty insurance companies, asks each Canadian to take these precautions ta help prevent f orest f ires. 1. Neyer throw cigarettes or matches from car windows. 2. Build campf ires. on rocks or bare earth. Be sure your f ire is well away f rom dry timber. 3. Drown campf ires or smother them with earth before you leave the campsite.

Beautif ul, breath-taking scenery abounds, making Ontario an artist's para- dise. The Ontario Government, in an effort ta encourage. more people ta travel at home-and ta visit Ontario-.-has institut- ed a "Kriow AIl Ontario Better" campaign with considerable success. A steadily in- creasing number of inquiries is being received tram residents and from abroad. Any native son or daughter-or prospective visitor-wishing further infor- mation regardig tht places named or who would like ta "Kenow Ail Ontario Better" is invited ta address a letter ta the Pro- vincial Department of Travel and Puiblic'- ity, 67 College Street, Toronto. relieved of tht risks inherent in their business. But those who take tht risks also take tht contrai and tht farmer wbo gels ouIt ram under tht risks also loses contrai of bis business, Instead of asking for pariîy prices and ail the devices and contrais thal go with them the farmers shouid ask for a taxation system that would allow them ta build up their own reserves as insurance against the risks they bave ta run. To do this they bave ta take tht risks inherent in tht business and make what provision they can against them. ttal. Here is asggestion made to the Canadian Higbway Suattty Conterence in Quebec City, by a Mr. Blaisdell, a U.S. traffic safety expert: "I am convinced that no amaunt o! persuasion, moral or other- wise, can get tht peopletot drive safely. I arn equally convinced that tht ont best answer ta the traffic accident problem is entarcement - a rough and tough crack- down on the violalor - an enforcement program based on accredited ttchniques ta command respect, but designed ta remove tram tht road permanently, those who bave no regard for tht welf are o! others." It is an idea. Certainly if some peaple commiîled as pedestrians on tht sidewalks tht acts they commit as drivers on tht highways, Ibey would be arrested for allempted assaull. 4. Break matches in baîf before dis- carding. This precaution ensures that tht flame is exlinguished. 5. When biking, stamp cigarettes out on rocks or bare earth; if passible, douse themn with water. 6. If you live in the viciniîy o! a bush or foresl, equip all chimneys on your home or cabin with spark screens. '7. Broken bottîts should be buried. Tht sun's rays when magnified by glass can start tires. 8. If you spot a toresît ire, however small, report il bo police or forest officials immediately. Readers wbo go camping ntar or in fomest or woods, should clip out tht above precautions, and memorize thoroughly. Fighting Intolerance Tht !ollawing exîracit ram a recent address by Major John Bassettt, pubhisher o! Tht Toronto Telegram, is worthy of reprinting in this era o! intolerance: "Tht battît againsî intolerance, preju- dice and misundcrsîanding must be fought ceaselessly by men of goodwili every- whtre. It must be foughl publicly, openlv and courageously, whcnever the occasion arises and whatever may be tht cost in social acceplance. Criticism by one's friends, or any other inconveniences or discomt arts whbic b, although seriaus perbaps in tbemselves, in tht larger issue count as nothîng. This battît also must be foughl privately just as bard in tht beamts o! men, because bow difficult il is for ont not to say tram time to time-"I am better than rny tellow because my skin is lighter or because xny !aith is different." A Czecboslovak lien lays triple eggs once a week. In time, we hope, for that large, leisurely Sunday breakfast. A noted Austrian surgeon was defeat- ed for president of that nation. Tht doctor, il seems, wasn't just what tht people ordered. ""Talk better, but we are not irnpressecl with this doctrine which refers ta the present as a "tight mnoney" period. There neyer was a period we can recall or which we have heard aur parents tell us about when there were so many 20 dollar bis in circulation. There neyer was a time when so many labour-saving devices were available or when the market places were so' full of goods and wide choice. There neyer was a time when s0 inany houts were available for leisure and entertainment. There neyer was a Seriod when so many new homes were ousing families and providing such a high standard of living. There neyer was a time when aur desires and ambitions were go great and we were sa impatient in their fulf ilment. If you are tempted ta talk about "tight-money" of the present day better study a little history of years that actually were not pioneer days in Canada.

I don't mind paying dues for tht maintenance of the Union, but when we must also contri- bute to the maintenance of a political party (which many of us don't like) is a bit hard ta take.

Students & Summer Jobs As high schooI and collegiate students across the country heave great sighs of relief now that their examinations are over. their next thoughts will be of a summer job. If their thoughts go no further than a job for the holiday manths it will be a good thing for them. The unfortunate point; hawever, lies ln the fact that many of them may be tempteti into leaving school entirely. The high wages offereti by the large Industrial companies and the easy purchasing power of the money they tarn may lead many students to forsake their education for tht sake of quick andi big earnings. This would be a sad situation indeed. Tht big money that they think they are earning now will be a mere pittance in the future if they get married and have to raise twco or three children. The reason? Most of these Jobs that look se tempting now are what the guidance departments of the schools cail "deadend occupations". That is, they offer little room for advancement andi thus littie chance for incr1-!,: ,1d salaries. Though it is a hackneyed expression, it la stili truc that today is an age of specialization. The fields of science, medicine. electronics, engineering andi many others are rapidlv expanding with the speeding up of our times. The day of the self-made maii are almost gant. With the stress more andi more on pragress a mnan with a limited education has two strikes against hin before he enters tht working world. Education a iew years ega was a difficult thing to achieve. Il needeti fot onhy knowledge but also a great deal ai money, Vemy littie help was offereti tht struggling student ta further his education but today such i.nat the case. Tht governmtnt offtrs mort schoharships anti most ai tht langer industries offer bursaries ta students who show signs oi intellectuel potential. Thaugh education is necessa.ry ta gain a better job in 1he wark-world, there are rewemds for highcr education aven th. monetary anes. University training cultivates the mind a 4Y' teaches stutients ta tbink. Thcy are introducedti t othe- philosophies anti religiaus beliefs. Thmough tht enlighltWpjrnt gaineti in universities they become mare broati-minded when deeling with their fclhow man. If this situation existeti »ij-ug~s oui tht worhti theme would be far lesg friction betwecn r. Ont could go on adi infinituni about tht reasans tor hý4ex1 education but il can be reducedti t two simple facts. Ont is, the more qualifications a stutient bas tht better chance he has for a goati job. Tht other reasan, though not as profitable a one, is that tht educateti are better equippeti, through their enlighten- ment, ta bandIt tht afiairs ai a rapidhy changing world. Tht best wey ta fighl for freedom today is by educetion. Tht responslbility for the future lies on the uboulders ai studentgN who today weigh the high summer-time salary against school ne4S ll.
