The London Free Press Recently theme have been com. plaints that the countries of the western world are not making full and proper use of the brains and bmawn of their womenfolk. Now there is a possibility that a step may be takçen to give womnen a greater shame of re- sponsibility in the commuily thmough par'icipating in the womk of the police departmeîît. No doubt some of the bitter- ness- would be taken out of traf- fic troubles if orders were given by a good-looking policcwoman -provided, of coulse, that she was not so gooc ~~ ng as to hold up traffie There would, however, be somne fields which would h ardly-p commend themselves to the fairr sex. The job of breaking up fights, with the isk of disfigume- ment, is hardly a lady-like oc- cupation.

Shot In the Arm Mr. and Mrs. Brown on "Take Off" We wish fo Ihank ail our cusiomers and friends who made ihis bip fo Nassau possible. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. "Mick" Brown, Case Dealer for Bowmanville and district, returned December lst from a five day business vacation in Nassau in the Bahamas. They were guests of the J. 1. Case Company at the Nassau World Premiere and Annual Case Dealer Conference. Climaxing an outstanding year of business Mr. Brown was xvclennicd as an honoured guest by virtue of the sales effort which won hii hoth the coveted Case Eagle Award and membersbip in the exclusive Case 25-M1 Club. These awards were presented by M. B. Rojtman, Presi- dent of the Case Comnpany, at a special Awards Banquet in Nassau. Business higblights of the conference were the introduction of rcw Case Agricultural, Utility and Industrial equipment for 1959, parts_ anid scrvice conferences, discussions on how a Case dealer can better serve his cu'tomers. This trip ias not ail business for "Mick" and his wife. They e':joy cd decp sea fishing, sight-seeing tours, swimming and relaxing on the beach wvith entcrtainment in the evening. They had the privilege of -:ayine ini the ncevest and largest hotel on the island, the luxurious E£nîera!d Beach. 1V He.1BROWN ýJ .CASE DEALER By C. J. Harris The solution offered by lead- ers of organized labour for con- tending with both rising unem- ployment and inflation is high- er wages in 1958; in some cases, higher wages plus shorter hours. In brief, the union leaders' argument is that the Canadian economy needs a shot in the arm and that more purchasing power in the hands of the people would provide it. It is an argument that stumbles on figures just releas- ed by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. In the first nine months of 1957 personal savings of Canadians were about 28 per cent above the same period of 1956. So the money is there for the spending. No doubt, if higher wages could increase national purchasing power with- out any increase in prices, the economy would get its shot in the arm. But since direct wages and salaries account for haîf of in- dustry's cost of production, and indirect wage payments account for perhaps 30 per cent more, a higher labour cost must inevit- ably increase prices. This, too, is conclusively shown by the DBS survey. Comparing whole- sale prices in the January-Sep- tember periods of 1957 and 1956, industrial materials were down by a haîf per cent; but manu- factured goods were up nearly three and a haîf per cent. For the same periods, industrial pay- roîls were up by six Der cent, Iwhile the number of Canadians employed in non-farm jobs was up by only four per cent. Thus, while the cost of manufacturing materials went down, payrolls went up out of proportion to the increase in the number of work- ers, and prices rose. jSome union leaders put the Ionus for reducing prices entire- ly on management, and dlaim that prices could be reduced I even if wages are raised. But competition governs prices and any company that wants to stay in business must keep its Drices to a minimum. A wArehouse filled with unsold goods is no asset to any firm. Union leaders who want to give Canadian industry a shot in the arm in 1958 shouild think first of ail in ternis of the prices of what their industries produce.
