TTT TUESDAY, TT 20 1027 FAITH IN CANADA . Oshawa can view with particular pride the impressive building program with which Gen- eral Motors of Canada, Limited, has marked and continues to mark its own and the De. minien's Diamond Jubilee, | Huge new plants have been added to the in- dustry's factory group here, Additions to ex- isting buildings have swelled the year's record of construction, A. new office building is steadily rising to take the place of the one the industry has outgrown. The past week saw contracts let for two new units to supplement the hody building mills and paint plants, doubling those sections' capacity, A fourth story for a north plant ' unit was also authorized, Yet on official state- ment, the expansion program for 1927 is not vet complete, Contracts for additional dry kilns and lumber storage yards are yet to be let, All these things are of vital concern to Oshawa, They evidénce a great industry's faith in the city that is its Canadian home, But these things' mean very much more than a greater Oshawa, They are a token, and a significant one, of the world's greatest manu- facturing institution's faith in Canada's im- mediate future, The structures which com- pese the Oshawa General Motors plant's 1927 'building program are letters in a word that has national significance, That word is Prosperity. Without a Canada about to enter upon the rich harvest of its past 60 years of prepara- tion, Oshawa would not have stood fifth amongst the cities of Canada in June build. ing and be making a fair bid to keep that place for the current month, The years of which Canadian: have dreamed since Confederation are at the very thres- hold of the present, They are no longer a dream but an urgent presence, The timid and self-doubting will not reap the full benefit of the coming years. But those whose faith has stood the test of adversity and still stands firm will reap such increase as the people of few nations have ever known before. * WHAT IS TRUTH? Most of us today can sympathize with the old pagan, Pilate, who asked, "What is truth?" Perhaps there were no professional propa- gandists in Pilate's time, but he had heard many conflicting statements as to a matter that interested him and he was sorely per- plexed. Professional propagandists in recent years have befuddled the public as to a great many things of more or less vital concern. Every newspaper office is flooded with literature, pro and con, on a myriad of subjects. Conflicting interests, contending forces, are at work in all countries, and each side gives out its own version of affairs. The average man | does mot know which is true, and perhaps he has not been given the truth at all. Is it any wonder that he asks, like Pilate of old, "What is truth?" ¢ LAWS VS. CHARACTER * Canadians generally will agree that the people of the United States have great faith IS 1 'enacted weakness on the part of some portion of the nation's populace. Edeh stands oh the statute books as an accusing finger pointing to those who have so little character that they must be disciplined by law as the child must be dis- ciplined by its parent, If too much discipline is detrimental to the character of the child, will not too many laws tend to undermine the character of a nation? As a rule laws are futile in strengthening the character of ani vidual or a people. 'ten 'statutebi have: te rétard the nat al development of character through education. It must; if | all that the led "purse-sii lafs have 'failed to check the public gts gambling instinot in games of ae wild-cat stocks, and 'betting, Whi i fagk self-control, once they have laws against themselves, Who is at fault when others use the whip they have given them? Few laws, well enforced--that is the ideal. PERFECTING THE RADIO Good times are ahead for the radio user. The broadcasting situation, thanks to the fed- eral authorities, shows signs of clearing up considerably, There is still some interference but as a whole the air is much clearer since the real location of wave lengths was effected. As time passes, there is every reason to be- lieve the crowded air will be cleared still more, and that with added experience those in charge will 'be in a better position than ever to deal intelligently with the involved problem, Of no less interest to radio users is the news just leaking out that the corporations which own and-contivl the basic patents upon which receiving equipment is built have come to an agreement releasing to one another their basic rights, When the new. fall sets appear on the market it will be' possible for the purchaser to obtain a receiving set combining the best developments of many radio laboratories, Re- sponsible manufacturers are being licensed to produce equipment utilizing circuts and parts heretofore available only to owners of the patent rights, Moreaver, it is whispered about .that radio engineers havé* hit upon improvements revolu- tionary in character and promising better re- ception, Better broadcasting should result from the work of the radio commission. Better sets are sure to result fiom cooperation between manu- facturers and the research of the radio labor- atories, Radio users will Benefit from all these ad- vances. And everything that makes radio more popular directly benefits broadcasters and manufacturers.
