THE STAR EDITORIAL PAGE mis Weekly Newspapers LB \ dk THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1th, 1953 This' winter has proved to be a mild '<blessing. As.a matter of fact we might well say that we have been enjoying a luke- -warm winter, And for this clime that is - most unusual. Long before this we ex- rected free.ing temperatures and a snow- covered landscape. And what have we had? Spring weather, fall weather, and weather which with a little stretch of the imagination we ;mjght even call summer. It is tene that the trees, the ground hardened up a bit, but the grass, all unblushing was still green and fresh, flowers spurted forth here and there ~+in the abandoned garden, and the wild-life bewildered vainly tries to adjust to what even we humans can't understand. Though quite frankly we have no sens: ible:explanation for such unparalled, unsea- soning we can speculate about its cause. Perhaps the blasts unloosed by such per- sonages as McCarthy, McCarren, Jenner ~ Commenis at Large _ Mr. C. R. Ragonem, deputy attorney general for Ontario told a delegation repre- senting Negroes that Ontario has no laws to fight discrimination against Negroes. Any restaurant, barber-shop, or other in- stitution engaged in the business of person- al services has the right to refuse Negroes _-the use of their services. In some com- munities there is no discrimination; in others there is complete discrimination. I8 this a problem 'to be salved by passing laws orithrough local enlightenment.

That would do the trick. 'Any housewife can tell you how it is with curtains . . . they just won't stay in place. Perhaps, too, the mysterious race which controls the mysterious saucers has brought some new field force to bare on us so that we will turn our attention from cold wars:and cold winters, from red flannels and red noses and just plain reds, to something less irritating. A mild joke is intended and perhaps, all speculation aside, that is precisely what our present winter may. well turn out to be and for just no reason at all. ¥ tend a course given by 'the government. 'Too often such parents showed a cruel dis- regard for the fate of their children and all too often the delinquency stems from the conditions of the environment inthe home. The problem is one of assessing responsi- bility .and finding suitable ways of dealing with such parents. Perhaps, the govern- 'ment could well afford ito experiment with _ this idea on a small scale, Better still, a - town or city might undertake such a pro- Ject to determine haw workable it really is. oF kok Kk Rab Butler, Chanceller of the British Ex- . chequer, claims that he loses money on his farm.

CLIPPED COMMENTS INTERNATIONAL TRADE As everyone should realise, interna tional trade implies both imports and exports, but possibly 'this is most cleatly redlized'in a community where export'trade is the chief business.

Watch for the Flashing Blue Lights "With first heavy snowfall requir- ing use of Ontario Department 'of Highways snow -, removal vehicles equipped with flashing blue lights, the motoring public.is reminded to watch for these signals and, thereby, ayoid accidents and, perhaps, serious blogk- ing of main thoroughfares. As recommended by the Chief Con- stables' Association of Canada in 19- 61, flashing blue lights were first-au- thorized to indicate that a unit on which they are used fs wider than ordinary vehicles, such as large snow- plows, and usually would be moving at less than normal speed. The idea worked out so well that use of flashing blue lights was final- ly restricted in this province to snow removal & winter maintenance equip- ment only. This was done by Ontatio Regulations 140-53, dated July 81, 19583, under the Highway Traffic 'Act. Now that winter seems to have set are urged to watch for flashing blue lights, especially during storms when snow plows and sanding trucks are clear and free from treacherous glare fee. Large snow,plows are a bit wider than half of a two-lane highway. The 'dangerous extra width is often hidden by snow being removed from the road. Sometimes, the vehicles have to move quite slowly, and especially so if the snowfall is heavy.
