With them, these mis- sionary friends brought beautiful Chinese embroidered panels, each with its own story and meaning. There were also the little shoes (with well-worn soles) which are worn by the ladies who have tiny bound feet; there were the little caps which the honored boy chil- dren of China wear to keep away the evil spirits, which the supersti- tious unchristian Chinese person feels beset them.

Photo Vancouver -- The comparative beauty of university coeds has be- come another post-war controversy in Canada.

Following the controversy between seven expatriate Saskatchewan students now at UBC and UBC co- eds, University of Manitoba arose in righteous indignation, issuing a challenge to Alberta, Saskatchewan and British Columbia. UBC ac- cepted and the Vancouver Daily Province offered to see the argu- ment through with a contest here in Vancouver in aid of the War Mem- orial Fund, U.B.C. had its own finals yester- day in Brock Hall Tea Dance dur- ing the afternoon.

Socialism, Communism Choice For World Today B. Jolliffe Toronto--Saskatchewan is at last getting clean and efficient govern- ment," said E. B. Jolliffe, speaking to the Political Science Club, Un- iversity of Toronto, last night. "In the world today the choice between democratic Socialism and Commun- free enterprise is actually no choice at all." The Saskatchewan government must run within the framework of the capitalist Canadian society and could not tamper with the control of money credit which was, by the constitution, under the control of the central government. Therefore must balance it's budget, "or be a permanent beggar at the door of the Federal government." Saskatch- ewan's financial record was enviable, he said because before the war Saskatchewan bonds sold on the New York market for below par prices, and now, with the CCF government in power, the bonds selling at a premium, The CCF government in Sas- katchewan has achieved a far reaching program of social reform. The Trade Union Act gave Labour a great measure of union security, which was in great contrast to Ontario, where Labour must fight through strike action to achieve any form of union security without the benefit of any legislation at all Though the legislature in Saskat- chewan was made up mostly of agrarian interests, a substantial community of interests between or- ganized farmers and organized workers has been achieved. 3 The government had also enacted a program to ensure security of tenure to the farmer and, he said, "the CCF wants to defend the' in- dependent tenure of individual farmers in the country". Most farm- ers in America were tenants and thus were at the mercy of the land- lord and creditor, but the Farm Se- curity Act of Saskatchewan has provided legislation to prevent the farmer from losing his land even if he defaulted his debts. Also laws were passed to enforced the mort- gagee to share the farmer's losses to prevent a crop failure, in order that the amount of interest on his debt be reduced. "Saskatchewan is the first and only province in Canada to provide free treatment and diagnosis for cancer", Also, as of January 1, 1947, free hospital care, whenever needed, would be provided at the cost of five dollars per capita. In the field of education, in con- trast to Ontario whose teachers' salaries were among the lowest in the Dominion, the CCF govt. in Saskatchewan, had increased the minimum salary to $1200 per year, ism, a highly publicized system of |8r & 4 which was the highest minimum salary in Canada. Saskatchewan had also embarked on a wide pro- gram of adult education and re- creation at the community level and intended to make this part of her education program an important phase in her whole educational pro- am. "The finest social security schemes in the world will collapse if unem- ployment goes beyond a certain point", In order to preserve a high level of production, Saskatchewan had taken over direct control of a great number of industries, wool, leather, printing and transportation being the most important. He con- ceded that for a long time a great deal of the production and distribu- tion would have to be under private or co-operative enterprise. He said, "all government can do is enable the people .. . to do a great deal for themselves without being dominated and exploited by special groups." Regarding the dominion-provinec- ial tax agreements which were now in the forefront of political news, Mr. Jolliffe said "If the Drew gov- ernment in Ontario would stop playing cheap politics with Dom- inion-Provincial relations a satisfactory tax agreement could be reached." Kiwanis Club (Continued from Page 3) wanis," he said, "is not to be raea- sured by the number of meetings you attend or the number of fines you pay .. . but by the worth- while and sacrificial work you do 1 for the community." Gift Is Presented The guest speaker was introduced by Bert Coulter who outlined his busy career. Thanks on behalf of the club were extended by Keith Gahan and a fine five-candle pew- ter candle holder was given the governor from the Oshawa group as well as a pen set to his secretary. Several guests from Lindsay Ki- wanis were present at the meal. At the head table, Ford Moynes and Charles Stevenson, and the others were Tom Quinn, Bert Wayman and Bruce McArthur. Others at the head table were: Major A. P. Simester, who gave a Remembrance Day poem, Keith Gahan, Dave Jamieson, Bill Burns, Dick: Read, Bert Coulter, Reg. Gib- son who played master of ceremon- ies in Cyril Souch's absence, Wal- ter Stewart, and Ted Johnson, All the members who could pos- sibly attend were asked to be out for the opening of the T.B. clinic $150,000 Fire Guts Building In Hamilton Windsor, Ont.,, Nov. 13--(CP)--A spectacular three-alarm fire gutted the three-storey Stewart Building early today, destroying the stock of three firms and causing damage estimated at more than $150.000. The blaze, which. was believed to have started in a chemical stock pile on the second floor of the old brick and frame building, took hold rapidly and left but a skeleton framework in less than an hour's time, Spontaneous combustion was said to have started the conflagra- tion. : One floor of the building is dan- gerously near collapse from the fire and the weight of water poured on the flames. This will delay a search aimed at definitely deter- mining the cause of the blaze. The fire proved difficult to subdue. At 1:45 a.m, firemen thought it was under control and much equipment left the scene. But it raged out again at 4 a.m. and burned as furi- ously as before. The equipment was called back to go to work again. The most spectacular since the disastrous Kresge Building fire last Christmas Day, today's blaze was fed by chemicals in various parts of the structure and fanned by a stiff southwest wind.
