lo them they subscribe to bonds from salaries already heavily taxed and yet seem unable to carry through this easiest form off saving lo its natural conclusion they cash them to finance their christmas spending for a vacation or to buy clothes some regard vic tory bonds as a form off christmas saving club to which they paya small sum weekly for the sake of having more money at holiday time apart altogether from patriotic consideration cashing of victory bonds just isnt smart many persons are making more money now than ever be fore there hasnt been the same opportunity for saving in two or three generations those who dont do it are failing themselves money spent now does not give the same return it will after the war prices are high there isnt the same selection of goods there will be after the war at lower prices antl money- saved now is insurance against possible loss of work in the switchover from war to peace so if youre tempted to hand that bond across a banks counter for those crisp speedilyspent 10 bills remember that you probably wont get normal value for your money if you do spend and youll probably regret the lack of the money later when it can bo really useful

political parties us a croup take an active interest in municipal elections in toronto tho c c f ran a slate or ofhciols and the electors didnt chose ono of them lor office wo are told that as a group this party was active in other municipalities and with about the same amount of success there never was room in municipal elections foi any party to put forth candidates as representatives of that group it is difficult enough now to get men of experience from all parties to all all the posts without dividing it three ways or more just what could bo gained by having a liberal conservative and c c f slate in municipal elections other than u lot of needless argument and a consequent neglect of local affairs every municipal body needs all shades of opinion but tho question of whether that opinion conforms with a certain political belief is unimportant in municipal affairs the important thing is whether tho proposal under consideration is good for the community as a whole and on that basis alone should all decision bo made the c c f made a bud blunder when they at tempted to bring their party into municipal arfairt lack of experience und lack of knowledge of on tarios system of

popularity of the c c f initials which may have induced candidates to run under that banner the unswer hus been given and a few more answers wilkbe given by the electors when they find that new names

morealrtnivel one of the problems that will face every munici pality in the postwar period is securing a landing held for airtravel gray coach lines has already made application to operate a helicopter or similar aircraft service with passenger carrying capacity of machine of not less than seven persons and in all probability a capacity of 12 to 14 persons applica tion is made for eleven proposed routes in ontario and includes this section in the days between the world wars it wus scramble by cities towns and villages to have a highway serving the community and they were built in the greatest number in the most thickly travelled sections after this war it uppcars that the town without un adequate lunding held is the one that will be practically off the map gray coach lines propose to operate at least one roundtrip schedule per day on each of the eleven routes and serve all intermedi ate points as rapidly as equipment can be made available it may be that the companies operating the air lines will provide the aircraft terminals just as has been done with bus terminals but it would seem the municipalities would do well to cooperate in secur ing these fields and have a place on the air travel lines of the future v jeopardizing the future christmas season cashing of victory bonds has emphasized again the lack of foresight of some cana dians who scrimp for months to save forbonds and then convert them to use the cash for gilts there arent any figures available as to the number of vic tory bonds that have been cashtrl- but government conscience may develop an image of
