@¢ THE DAILY TIMBES-GAZETTE, Wednesday, September 98, 1008 Editorials The Gully Times-Gaseite (Oshawa, Whitby), 67 _Simooe shed by Times Street South, Oshawa, Ontario Give Away Surplus Grain If it Cannot Be Sold With the advancing season it becomes more and more obvious that large amounts of wheat will have to be piled in the open on the farms of Western Can- ada because there is neither immediate market, transportation nor storage. From the standpoint of food the coun- try is wealthy beyond all possibility of use and to some extent of sale. Yet it is also true that, in other parts of the world there are hungry people, those who would like to have some of this grain were they able to pay for it or pro- vide the means of transportation. In the circumstances this newspaper is inclined to repeat a former suggestion that donations or gifts be made. to those most in need. It would be much better than to permit the grain to spoil in the open or to burn it, as has been done in some isolated instances and like the cof- fee that was burned in Brazil or the little pigs killed in United States because no market was in prospect. ; There are countries direly in need of food. Some of them are looking with en- vious eyes on this continent with its plenty evep unto wealth. What they might be inclined to do if they continue in want while this continent overflows with wealth is a question that cannot " fully be answered without ominous sug- gestions. While huge investments are being made in armies, arms, bombs and other things that could be used for defence pur- poses, one of the best investments of all might be in sending food where it would do more good in saving life and dissipat- ing prospective threats against this coun- try's security. Welfare Comes From Enterprise One of the major worries of most democracies today is how to meet costs of welfare services. In New Zealand the question has been highlighted by that country's minister of social welfare, Mrs. Hilda Ross. In a recent debate Mrs. Ross said that too many people were getting help from the state who ought to be able to fend for themselves. "Some people think the State should be the all-provid- ing father, arranging for everyone their wages, jobs and houses. "This is not my idea of a welfare state at all. I think the state should come to the aid of those who are in distress and who are genuinely unable to help them- selves, and I believe the help given should be the greatest degree possible." The true welfare of the people both here and in New Zealand les not in the extent and number of free hand-outs from the national treasury -- which in turn, is reimbursed from the taxpayers' pocket ~-- but rather from the high level of savings and investments which create she jobs and the pay envelopes for the people. ; : Welfare, governmental or individual, has always depended upon the investment in new productive facilities of the savings of the people. Offidial figures quoted in the Letter Review and published by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, attest to the truth of this assertion. Capital investment in Canada in 1958 is now estimated by the Bureau to be $5,664 millions -- three per cent higher than the original official forecast and ex- ceeding by nine per cent the investment level for last year. Hqually significant is the fact that only a small fraction of this amount comes from abroad or from gov- ernment in Canada. Most of the capital comes from individual savings and Cana- dian corporations. po The maintenance of Canada's pros- perity and national welfare at present levels depends upon three things. First, a tax structure sufficiently liberal to en- oourage savings and new enterprise; re- straint in the matter of wages and prices so that Canadian exports may enjoy com- petitive advantage in world markets; an aggressive immigration policy designed to enlarge the domestic market and dimish reliance upon exports, Time To Check Heating Units ; This is the time of the year when there oomes a realization that the fur- nace should be checked in readiness for another season's operation. Actually, & is not the time when the work can best be done. Especially with automatic fuel- fed furnaces and those with thermostatic control it is better to have the furnace itself and its mechanical contrivances cleaned and reset during the summer months. If this is done the heating plant is all ready to go into operation when the first cool day comes around and added comfort and convenience result. The point is, of course, 'that a lot of people don't have their furnaces checked until the time comes for them to once again be placed in operation. It is still essential in the interests of safety that this should be done. Everybody knows that mechanical' units cannot go on in- definitely without wear and tear effect- ing their efficiency. Furnace pipes become M . - Editorial* Notes Striking fact revealed by the inquiry into Ontario prisons: Canada, with one- third the population, has more people be- hind the bars than Britain.

Every winter fires and accidents oe- cur as the result of inattention to the proper care of furnace equipment. Safety appliances on automatic furnaces may not work satisfactorily unless periodically checked. Even with the conventional types of furnaces a good cleaning out usually proves to be not only a good safe- ty precaution but also a means of econ- omy in the use of fuel. ; Canada's climate makes it necessary for all households to be provided with some type of heating equipment. Whether it is an old-fashioned stove, a convention- al coal furnace or a modern automatic unit there is the need to be sure that everything is in order when the season for cooler weather starts. Fires will be prevented and lives saved if the proper precautions are not overlooked.

Of a total of 4,500 such families, classed as agricul- tural workers, about 1,500 had settled on farms of their own by the middle of last year. A large proportion of these were in Ontario. .

QUEEN'S PARK Some Weaknesses In Liquor System 5 By Bid EARN . pec orres| ent to The Times-Gazette TORONTO -- We have had a few words to say about the Jarvis street liquor rumpus. In fairness to licence holders both on that street and through the province we think a few words should be said about their position in the matter. There is no doubt that our liquor system is weak. That there are many infractions through the prov- ince. And that there are many bad bar operators. But because of 'the current ex- citement the whole industry should not be given a black eye, and this includes Jarvis street operators. GOVERNMENT FAILURE Some of the fault in present con- ditions undoubtedly belongs to the government and the liquor licence oard . These two senior parties in our liquor administration have gone along with their eyes blank and their ears closed. They haven't recognized that there was lax en- forcement except when it has been thrown directly at them through an incident, such as the present, which has caused .a commotion. POLICE FAILURE bys Some of the fault belongs with local police. They haven't accepted their responsibility of policing bars. And despite the fact they ave being paid to do so one can't blame them particularly. Without a direct control it is a very tough job to do so, and with a divide® authority and another body (LCBO) having authority it is easy to pass the buck. ; LICENCE HOLDERS Some of the blame lies with licence holders, particularly the most irresponsible element, They have permitted infractions of the board regulations, particul- arly in crowding and double serv- ings. They have jlked = bars. And some them 'have been most irresponsible. } But there are at least' two com- pensating factors which should be weigh ment on them. TOUGH JOB For one thing it should be eon. sidered that they have op- erating in a system which been his brother so much for aping him, And as a second consideration it must be realized that licence hold- i do have g, tough job on their WHERE BLAME It was Boteworthy in the news- paper story that caused the ex- citement there was little concrete evidence against bar owners. It was written excitingly and with many broad accusations, but the only specific fact in it was that drunks came out of the bars. To check against this a bar owner has to control both his tap- men and his waiters. And the last in turn have to decide when a man is too drunk to be served. As just one instance how much blame should be on a man when a customer goes in his lavatory and drinks wine and then comes out drunk -- a common occurence with the winies on Jarvis street. Operators are to blame, but so are both spheres of government. , B DENTAL SERVICES GOOD HANNOVER (CP)--Col. R. E.

MAC'S MUSINGS A Toronto woman who has Had her 102nd birthday Claims that in spite of Modern labor-saving * Devices, housekeeping Was much simpler in the Old days than it is now, And gives reasons why. In the old days, when There were no motor cars, Uncle Bill and Aunt Marge And their brawling brood Did not drop in for Sunday dinner uninvited without war! after A hundred mile motor trip. When after dark the Light grew dim there was No' call to replace a Burned-out fuse or Search for a new bulb Oil lamp, trimm Wick and wiping Chimney did not brighten Up the home, fo) Just went to bed. The painted softwood Floor got by with Scrubbing once a week, Whereas today's hardwood Floor now calls for Constant waxing and Polishing day by day. In the old days, too, The housewife stayed home With the children and Her knitting, instead of Scouring the seingborhood To find a baby sitter, And when the housewife"s Work seemed too heavy A hired. girl would be Brought in at two or three Dollars a week, with Or without board. It sure does seem simple To read of it like that, And compare it with KS Complex living of tdday; But yet who is there Who would go back to what They called good old days.
