community and dis trict have never failed to answer this appeal yet and now with the need greater over there can be no failure this nmc its no time for complacency if the amount is to be raised the red cross has done a magnificent ob thus far it can only con tinuo to do this work with your continued support when the canadian and british repatriated pris oners of war from germany reached a british port and saw the red cross uniforms on the dock they j cheered they had every reason to do w as tbc red cross could be called their bcvcridgc plan for comfort and service when u man joins the canadian armed force- he also becomes a responsibility of the red cross he is provided with comforts such as woollen scar ves helmets and socks and should he go to hospital through illness or wounds the red cross is at his side to provide dressings and bandages his home town newspaper and delicacies but best of all the society visitors service at home and abroad is there to bring him cheer and friendship when lie needs it most should he be seriously wounded on the buttle- tfnt red cross blood serum that miracle of modern medical science is there to give him a fighting chance to live when he reaches a base hospital the red cross brings him comforts in the shape of smokes from home writing paper books and magazines many of our men are taken prisoners and then the red cross is still at his side even across the frontiers of belligerent nations every week he will receive a lifesustaining food parcel and other moralekeeping services in entertainment and cul ture there is very reason to be proud of your red cross only through your generous support cim it continue v a question of control this war has done much to focus the eyes of canadians on their great northern empire that reach es up through the arctic und toward the orient there is every possibility that after the war the area will assume greutertigniflcance than ever in relation to the nutionul life war hits sped the development of the northland at strategic spots hidden until recently by untouched forest engineering m prudes have been wrought to create iunt uirkelds whose construction leaves lit tic doubt thut they ure intended to be permanent the wartime history of the northwest stuging route is common knowledge now und censorship ha- been relaxed sufficiently to indicate the tremendous how of military truvcl it has borne because of wur planes of the united nations have had free access to the aerial shortcut between east and west soon canada will have to decide how far this policy of open airways can be carried into the potwar years there is no doubt that every major nation will be anxious to obtain rights to fly by the direct land route which canadian geography provides there js also little doubt that canadian policy must be worked out in close conjunction with that of the united states which helped build the fields that stretch across british columbia and the yukon territory and whose alaskan territory gives it with canada a key position in air communications yhh the orient the quostion of control of the airways is some thing new in worm history and clear thinking will be required by those whose duty it is to formulate postwar policy if a country owns the air over it then canada with o much of it vast territory in the strategic northern tone should have a powerful voice in the conferences at whidt the decision will be made v the new llcami ibmmmk vun the new health insurance plan designed to af ford mcdcal and hospital service to everyone in canada and full dental care to

additional for children under 111 who however would get all tlu benefits ol the plan thus a single person carniug 1hhi u ycai would pay a total of 22 ml and il earning mm year would pay 1420 single persons earning sltwio or more would pay the maxi mum of 42 married men earning siwmi a year would pjy mi annually those earning 1h0 would pay s4 at 2oou the annual fcis would be u to cover all medical and hospital services for the family and at 224x1 a year or mole the fee would be the maxi mum of 74 single persons earning less than tmu n year and married persons 1200 or less would pay only 12 a year while the fees may look high to many who have eiioyed good health und u further form of luxation may not be viewed as advisable it is well to remember that now your municipal tax bill cither local or county has an mssestnciit for the hospitu cure of all indigents and you pay it whether you realize it or not the one objection to all these forms of siutc cure and attention is the fact that they muke people not reliant on themselves and too dependent on the state in meeting the obstacles that crop up all the wuy through life this may be outweighed howcvei by the likelihood of having a more robust peopte through preventative treatment its u question that indeed needs careful study because once em barked upon it will grow wider us other services have done where government aid is given und run on the peoples funds v editorial notes cend a hand buddy 1x imh ht m to tuk tfitcumavt lit it- nitr ituiki to miuy imiiiiiihi of luiiiury t oth- r lit oii of tin ii iio uu u iiuuau i loo
