Fhe Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Om Page 6 Monday August 1960 Full Employment Can Mean Full Dictatorship Full employment is =a deceptive phrase. In 1945 it was used to describe the effort to bring about orderly transition of the economy from wartime to peacetime conditions, It has also been defined as a situation in which all em- ployable workers have jobs, And it has often been given an added meaning, one that implies that a government is res- ponsible for seeing that everyone, always, has a job -- and that in turn implies that the state direct the national eco- nomy so that no one capable of work is an ever out of work, That is an attractive and plausible idea to those who cannot find work or who have difficulty hanging on to jobs. Unfortunately, they do not seem to give much thought to the power that would have to be given to government to bring about such a condition Speaking in the Upper House during the recent session of Parliament, Senator Thomas A. Crerar put his finger on the point that if is that responsibility, it could not be gov ernment "Is it to be the responsibility of government to find jobs, to provide work at all tines, government to have as we now know it, for the unemployed?" he asked, "If the answer is in the affirmative, if we con- elude that it is the responsibility of gov ernment to see that unemployment is banished from the land, then we must go the further step and consider how we can place our governing authorities in the position where they can discharge that responsibility, I think that is fun. damental' As Senator Crerar recognizes, in any state where the people permit or de mand that government guarantee jobs for all at all times, the means to that end is supreme authority of the state over the individual and the end is jobs that take jobs that workers may want; that is, conscription workers must not of labor, To some theorists, this is an economis cally logical, politically desirable course, Some the party in Britain assumed that peacetime conscrip- be members of Labor socialist party with a clear man- tion would a policy of When the there came into office any government Labor date, its failure to impose compulsory national service was a source of undis- guised chagrin to some of its doctrinaire members.

What then is needed? It must start back at the so-called grass roots level, Instead of standing around criticizing, farmers must attend their local meetings pro- vided for their convenience for the purpose of electing officers and discussing the Important problems of the day, From here of these two grains, and since expansion 1s feasible, another $00,000 acres could be devoted to this production, CABLE FARMING Engines, secured al the top of hills, pull plows and harrows up steep inclines by wire cables in Norway, FOR BETTER HEALTH *9 Visual Trials Faced By Cross-Eyed Child MD worry baby's infant realize aon Herman N, Bundesen, PARENTS often needlessly about their eyes, They fear that the is cross-eyed and fail to that newborn bables can't trol their eye muscles The time to become is when the haby reaches the age of three months, If his eyes are not staight most of the time by that age, it is probably a good idea to tell your pediatrician or family doctor about it HE'LL, WATCH EYES I doubt very much whether the doctor will do anything about it except to wateh the baby's 'eyes for another three months or so.
