regulate wage health and welfare conditions for thousands of persons who work in everything from a dock yard snack bar to a honkytonk night club it proposes establishment of a sevenman commission to examine the many sides of the complicated catering industry and to recotnmend wage boards where necessary the bill has an abundance of sup port but it will probably take rough ride before it finally becomes law about 200 backbench numbers ot parliament intend to buck it on the grounds that it would give the government dictatorship powers over the trade toe mark dictator officials in industry also have been pecking at the bill ever since the 15- page document was printed they feel that conditions are already good and ellorganized and suggest thnt frnest hevin minister of la is to bring down

the news chronicle houcicr termed the bill a walters charter and said that nobody but a biased party could call it dictatorial this is no question of an unjusti fiable extension of bureaucratic in terference with a ucllorganued in dustry the paper added th bill must be welcomed as a belated effort to bring a slum area of em ployment under proper control itnenaplvment care the bill doesnt mention anything about britain becoming a tourists mecca but political observers say that possibility has been discussed by the cabinet as part of a vast plan to cure postwar unemployment some members believe the time is ripe to lay plans to bring to the uorlds no tice the nations beauties amenities and even her battle scars before the war the catering trade employed about 500000 persons many of

managed to scrape through in either case yon will want to he prepared for next winter when greater hardships loom unless you take immediate action the shortage already has anvrttd many c tout storks of dry wood are nearly exhausted in some places the small supply of green wood cut for next winter is being used tmttr to meet the present emergency throughout most of canada fuelwood is obtained not far from where it is consumed its production and distribution are the business of local citizens the dominion government recognizes that the woodhid shortage ia so serious that even with the full cooperation of everyone in affected com munities an adequate supply is not assured accordingly it has been decided to stimulate the output of woodfuel by assisting those normally engaged in its production and distribution to this end the following measures will be adopted v a subsidy of 100 per cord will be paid to dealers on all commercial fuelwood contracted for and cut on or before lune 30 1943 and held to dealers account on that date at the coal controller has been authorized lo arrange in his discretion for the payment of such portion of the transportation costs as he considers proper in respect of fuelwood particul arly in cases where dealers to procure supplies find it necessary to contract for fuelwood at locations outside the area from which they normally derive their supplies in order to obtain any such reimbursement dealers must obtain a permit from the coal controller before contracting for such supplies 3 the coal controller will repurchase from dealers at dealers cost all commercial grades of fuelwood on which a subsidy of 1 per cord has been paid and which are still in dealers hands as at may 31 1944 as assistance will be given in providing priorities for necessary equipment s farmers now on the farm and who leave the farm temporarily in response co this appeal to engage in fuelwood cutting will be deemed by national selective service to be carrying out their regular occupation as farmers and will be given all the rights of deferment of military service which such an occupa tion now carries such temporary ab should not however interfere
