LET'S FACE THESE FACTS (Financial Post) "This week Canada's Prime Minister made a talk on a subject-near to his heart: the place of labor in the mod- ern world. He apeared on the "Let's Face the Facts" series of broadcasts. A get of facts which the P. M. did not face either in his broadcast or in his administration is giving industrial- ists and governmental executives some sleepless nights. Here are the facts: A, There is a shortage of highly skilled men in many key industries. To keep 1p to schedules, industry can- not afford to lose even for a. month any man whose work cannot be done by someone else. f 2. The National Labour Supply Council, appointed by the Government to deal with such questions, recog- -> nized the problem and worked out a system of exemptions and staggered training. 3. Ignoring the urgent necedsity of war supply and forgetting the exis- tence of the Labour Council, the De- partments of National Defense and of National War Services decided that there would be no exemptions from the military training drafts. This week industrialists were press- ing upon Ottawa their claim to be al- ordinary draftees. Mr. King was forced to turn from the deliveiy of an academic speech on labor to deal with a real labour problem that had grown: up because no one was co-odinating the war efforts of his various depart- ments. It looks as though some de- | partments of Government were slated to retrace some of their steps so that all could get pointed in the same! direction. E -------- eee NEW USES FOR WHEAT (Financial Post) the facts about Canada's crisis are disturbing, nullion bushels to sell abroad this year. The world cannot possibly an- sorb it; not that part of the world to which we can still ship. We shall be pouring out tens of millions of dollars to pay for and store wheat that we cannot sell. We are doing nothing to ensure that we do not keep on growing more-wheat than we can sell. In fact; our present policies encourage people to grow more wheat--wheat for the taxpayer wheat We have 660 In a world where there is starvation one does not like to think of delibe- rately setting out to raise less wheat.' Lf we cannot sell all our wheat abroad and if we hesitate to curtain produc- | tion too drastically at home, then there is only one escape from our di- lemma. We must find riew ways tol use wheat, Last week the Financial Post told about the work of the National Re-! search Council in trying to solve this problem. Most of the studies have | been directed toward finding some in-; dustrial use for wheat. If we could do that we would not need to worry. So far the research has led to no startling discoveries. It should be | continued. The Dominion Govern- ment should give our scientists a sub- stantial vote to expand their studies of wheat uses. A few thousands for such work is trifling beside the mil- lions it is costing us to grow more wheat than we can sell. It does not scem that cnough study has ben given to ways of turning wheat into food products other than flour and bread. If we cannot sell wheat perhaps we can sell more of it as eggs, bacon, or beef. : In Canada we admire and promote the scientific spirit. But we do not apply science to our daily lives: as much as do the Nazis who despise the scientific spirit. Science should be able to help us solve our wheat pro- blem, One of the first steps toward solv- ing the problem would be to find out exactly what wheat is. We have been thinking of it as a bread cereal. We must begin to think of it as so many. basic chemical elements and then decide how we can use those clements to advantage in building a stronger people and a more prosper- ous Canada. ------, GREENBANK Congratulations. to Mr. Morley Raines and Miss Isabel Leask on their marriage last Saturday.
