New York and Chicago MONDAY, JULY 21, 1930 THE LEGION AND POLITICS The Injection into the general. election campaign of the question of the treatment of war veterans, and veterans' pensions, has made it necessary for the Dominion Presi. dent of the Canadian Leglon to make clear the status of that organization in the elec tion eampaign, Col. LaFleche has emphat- lcally announced that the Ledion is not a political organization and Is, by its con- stitution, absolutely debarred from taking any part, as a body, In a political campaign, No person has any authority to speak for the Legion politically, because it has no po. litical voice, This, of course, Is essential of an organ zation of some one hundred thousand vet. erans who belong to all shades of politica) opinion. In fact, the success of the Legion in securing new legislation at the 1028 wes slon of parliament, and further amend ments at the session of this year, was due, very largely, to the fact that it was not a political organization, and was able to have Its requests considered by both parties In the House on a non-partizan basis, The fact that the Legion is non-political as a body, however, does not mean that its individual members are debarred from tak. ing a part in the campaign, No organiza- tion of any consequence could be so auto- cratic as to deprive its members of their rights as citizens of Canada, and the Legion in essentially democratic, So, like any other citizens, Legion members, as individuals, have every right to' make their volces heard in the campaign, and they are doing wo, but only as private citizens, without In any way involving the Legion by their utterances It is well that this should be thoroughly un. derstood, since during the last week or so efforts have been made, first, to give the impression that the Legion was being fore od into the campaign by at least one man whe happens to be a high officer of the or. ganization, and second, to silence certain veterans, even in Oshawa, on the ground that they would be involving the Legion in political action. Both efforts are founded on false premises, and it is well that the public should be made aware of that fact, TRADE WITH BRITAIN Empire trade is occupying a large place fn, the public mind in these election cam- paign days since the question Is being fought out on the political platform. There are aspects of the matter, however, whic! are far removed from the political field, and which are entirely economic For instance, statistics show that the bal- ance of trade between Canada and Groat Britain is tremendously In favor of - this country. In the fiscal year, 1028-1020, for instance, Canada exported to Great Britain goods to the value of $429,780,4805, while in the same period goods to the value of $104,020,573 were imported from Great Britain, Thee figures show to a remarkable de- We, the advantage which has accrued to Canada from trade with the Mother Coun- try. One would not be surprised if Britain were to feel rather put out about it, and to suggest, in so far.as suggestions mich safely be made, that she be given # mow equitable share of Canada's import traue The United States exports to Canada in the same period were $868,085,807 as against $500,167,609 in Canadian exports to the States, This unfavorable trade balance is something that has given moat Canadians much cause for concern, and it would be a splendid thing if this could be cut down by increasing the use of goods manufactured in Canada, to replace as much as possible of this huge volume of imports, And, at the same time it would be a good thing for Empire trade if those goods which cannot be secured in Canada be imported from Bri- tain rather than from the States, That Is not a political conclusion, It has nothing to do with politios, It is a straight matter of sound economics from the. Em. pire standpoint, and it only requires a pres . sentation of the facts as shown in the above figures, to make the solution obvious, / STABILIZING EMPLOYMENT The other day The Times, In these cole. umns, referred to the plan of unemployment Insurance which the General Electrfc Com. pany, of New York, had put Into effect for its employees, As was stated then, that was but one phase of the scheme put into operation by this firm. One of the main planks in its general plan Is to provide for the stabilization of unemployment, so that, In times of depression, there will be as little hardship as possible to the working men and their families, The whole stabllization scheme of this company is as follows: When business 1s Increasing: "1, Increase the working force by adding employees as slowly as possible, "2 Increase the number in especially busy departments by transfer from oth- er departments, "3, Resort to overtime in particular «departments, and, generally, before in. creasing the working force, '4, Postpone plant renewal and main. tenance work as much as possible when gmploying the men on regular produc- on . "When work begins to fall off: '1, Conse hiring at once, "2, Cut out all possible overtime, and bring departments down to the normal week, "Transfer people from slack to busi. er departments, "4, Stimulate the sgles department to secure co-operation from customers, and got business for future delivery "5, Bulld standard apparatus for stock up to month's shipments, based on average of last three years' sales, ad- Jusated to expectation of next two yours "6 See that stocks at all factory and district warehouses are brought up to this maximum, » "7. Use on maintenance and repair work ; bring the plant and equipment up to a high standard, "8, Cut the normal week as generally and gradually as possible, by depart- ments==down to B0 per cent. of the nor. mal week, "9, Proceed with construction of In- creased plant facilities previously plan ned, using our own men as far as pos sible "10, Drop new employees with less than one year of service--single per- wons with no dependents, and who are mont easily apared, first--always with not less than one week's notice." As 18 to be expected, a plan of this kind has received much favorable comment, It has come out of the present industrial de- pression In the United States, which has been affected even more than Canada by the general world condition, and it is worthy of the attention of all large industrial concerns as a means of safeguarding their employees against just such a condition as the world Is in today, ------ ---- TAKE HOLIDAYS FROM PEOPLE Bickering is a product of too.great inti. macy amongst a few, Every man needs new interests and new friendships, and, ever so often, he needs to be alone, The great balance of life is or should be hooks.

Too much companionship Is weakening to the intellectual faculties and blunts the keen edge of friendship. For If we see a man overmuch, we are able td note his fine qual- ities only when he is dead. To have an instant appreciation of noble thought or action is to be a connoisseur of life and friendship.

Moor Program For Employment A daily department jn support of the candi. dature of W. H, Moors, Liberal candidate in South Ontario. | ' I'HE RELIEF OF DISTRESS . The second principle of the W. H, Moore Program for Em- ployment is closely allied to the first, It recognizes that, in times of unemployment, there is bound to be distress, there. fore any plan for solving the problem must make provision for its relief, The program of Mr, Moore therefore provides for "The distribution of relief to cases of distress by the Local Unemployment Councils, with assistance from municipal, provineinl and federal treasuries." The first essential of the distribution of relief to those in distress Is that it be non-partisan in character, That alone is sufficient reason for placing it in the hands of the Local Em. ployment Councils, which were explained in yesterday's article, Thin was made apparent, too, during the last session of parlia- ment, In the present campaign, Premier King Is being criticized because he has not already distributed funds for the rellef of the unemployed, because of what has become known as the five cent Insue In the campaign, Let us be frank in this matter, Take, as un example, the province of Ontario, The promier of Ontario who has been condemning Premier King for refusing to hand out money for relief on the eve of an election, has him- self done nothing about it, cont plece for relief purpores, He has not offered to give a five And he was right, He could not do that on the eve of an election and preserve political in- tegrity in the province of Ontario, What would have happen od then, had Mr, King, knowing an election was imminent, an- nounced wholesale grants to the provinces to be distributed among the unemployed opposition the greatest cry of raised in the history of Canadian political life, There would then have come from the "bribery and corruption" ever One can go oven further and ask, "Should the Premier of Canada 'have turned over federal funds to Premiers of Tory provinces-- his political opponents--=to distribute to the people on the eve of an election, when they would not distribute a five cent piece of thefr own money 2 Mr, King wan too jealous of the political Integrity of Ontario to consider such an ation, and he sald so in foreible language He might have said "Not by a jugful", and his meaning would have been just the same as when he sald, "Not a five cent plece," He knew only too well that Mr, Bennett would have been the first man to condemn such a dls. tribution of money from the federal treasury, and he would have had every right to make a public issue out of it. So, under the W. H, Moore Program for Employment, the hasle principle of relief distribution Is that it shall be non-part. lean, even fo the extent of not being handled by the city coun. ell, for even the members of the council, boing elected by the people, would not be free from attacks should they distribute relief funds in November or December, just before election time, The Ideal system for relief distribution, as we see it, is that suggested by Mr, Moare, the pooling of grants from the municipal, provincial and federal authorities, on an equal basls, and the placing of that fund at the disposal of the Local Em. ployment Council, which would have the very necessary in. vestigation of cases made, and distribute the money available as its members deemed wisest, This would place at the dia. posal of the Council a definite sum, which have to be adequate to meet the necessities of the community, and which could, if the citizens of the community so desired, be supplemented by donations from citizens who deaire to make voluntary con. tributions, This would solve the problem of relief, and we believe, as Mr, Moore stated in his speech of July 9 in Oshawa, that this matter, along with Mr, Moore's suggestions for its solution, should be one of the subjects for serious consideration, and for action, at the unemployment conference which is to be called by Premier King immediately after the election, : The principle of the W. H, Moore Program for Employ. ment, that of unemployment insurance, will be dealt with in tomorrow's article, (Inserted by Ontario Riding Libaral Association) THAT COURTESY IN A GREAT NUSINESS GETTER.
