ignificance there is m this land the resurrection of the earth from the long winter the coming to life of all growth which seems to cotncide to well with the teaching of caster not always do we have high promise of spring days a taster often the symbols of win ter are still with us at the eastertide and the winds are cold as we write on monday april has just left a big fall of snow but warmer weather sees it going almost as fast a it came it s the season of hope of faith and ustihca hon in the glory and oy of resurrection it s a joyous and happy time and the world of today needs renewed faith in itself in mankind in our provinces our dominion and other countries never was suspicion and distrust more prevalent than today and never was the spirit of caster its suffering and its glory more needed in our every day life than in 1950 life depend an water we can live without house or clothing for months we can live without food for days but 1o live without water is figured in terms of hours and minutes it is something we seldom think about water ii common easily accessible and cheap it is cheaper than dirt you can buy water in our cities delivered by tap to your bath and sink for about a nickel a ton while pjst ord nary dirt fill costs from a dollar up nd topsoil comes at around 10 it is only when a crisis occurs that we realise our dependence upon water even then we most ly take stopgap measures such as prohibiting the watering of lawns or shutting off the supply for a few hours a day or ast new york recently going without shaving on one day a week with so many demands upon it there natural ly is competition between one use and another sometimes municipal or provincial or federal governments must step in and establish priorities they may prohibit street washing or reduce with drawal for electric power generating or ration he supply to industries our disregard of the importance of rainfall and water supply has become a dangerous in fluence in our civilization it leads to faulty economic ideas confuses our thinking about colonization and immigration blinds us to the consequences of building bigger and bigger clues and leads us into wrong judgments about the location and prospects of factories water is benevolent when properly manag ed it can be productive and will support pros perous communities if its flow is wisely used our water problems are the outcome of our ef forts to adapt our physical environment to our economic and social needs without reckon mq sufficiently on nature s unchanging ways by drying up marshes and lakes we have destroyed the homes and breeding grounds of useful water fowl and fur bearers by clearing lake and stream banks of bushes we have expos ed the water to sunshine warming it so that it is spoiled for the best fish life by denuding hill sides of trees we have increased water wastage and lowered the water level in great areas mak tng it impossible for the roots of food plants to find moisture by inadequate management we have run short of water flow for production of electricity as in ontario last year and of- water depth for navigation as in the lachme canal last year orangevtlle banner in world competition recently business circles were disturbed by cheap shirts and cigarette lighters flooding the market and steps were taken to stop the dump ing there are other indications of a return of world trade which may have an effect upon our wage and hour standard for example two printing presses that have been manufactured in the united states by an american company are now made in england and come into canada at a lower cost to the canadian printer another press that is made in great britain compares very favourably with a machine made in the united states and sells for 1200 less than the american built press these are examples only in the printing field in every other field similar instances could be found that are going to change our trade outlook and have an effect on our economy canada reached a new high in exports to the united states recently in february 64 per cent of canadian exports went to the united states the war is over and again there itvprld wade it will be well for unions to take this into consideration when making demands for pen sions and other benefits american and canadian made cars are in competition with cars imported from england and any highway will confirm that tley are popular with many motorists these are but signs of the times goods made on this continent are in world competition again no- one wants to lower the standard of living but there are indications that we may raise it beyond the purchasing power of consumers many new industries located in ontario in 1949 what does a new industry mean to an ontario lwn village or city in terms of new payroll tvfitpr schools arid greater retail trade part of the answer is contained in a r view of the 1v49 activities of the trade and industry branch of the ontario dept of manning and development which lias leen released by the minister col th hon william griesmger in this review director f j lyle discloses tnal his branch last year assisted in the establish men of 47 new plants 12 in toronto and 35 in ether ontario municipalities capital invested was 33 15 millions number of employees plac ed on new payrolls 5229 and the new annual payroll estimated at 10 5 millions the new industries brought ontario a greater diversification of industry and new products ranged from cigaret lighters to dieselelectric locomotives an illustration of ontario s net gam may be measured by the estimate that together these new payrolls would support an ontario city of 21 000 persons in addition to gains in local retail trades a working force of this number normally supports 14 dentists 16 lawyers 22 physicians and sur geons 14 1 school teachers and 103 graduate nurses other activities of the trade and industry piench include assistance to domestic and foreign trading firms anxious to establish new business connections in ontario and research facilities arranged through the ontario research founda tion in all this the work of the staff at ontario house in london england is also integrated expressing satisfaction with last year s ac complishments col griesmger described current find future prospects as encouraging lfovslfo recollections ol aclon drunk driving the increasing number of drunk drivers being apprehended on the highways of the province indicates that something extremely drastic must be done to eliminate as far as possible this men nee to life and limb 1312 drunk drivers were convicted last year in ontario when brought before the courts of the province certainly many many more persons than this number drove while drunk and were fortunate enough not to run efoul of the law each year the number is rising steadily and if not checked now highways will become so un safe that the average motorist will shun driving altogether the indication is that some closer check must be instituted on the drivers we do not make any suggestions as to what form this check would take for the law enforcement officers of the province should be able to devise some manner cf eliminating this danger every motorist should be willing to submit to a check at any time in order to stamp out drunk dnvmq it would be in their own interests of safety to do so bracebndgc
