one canadian soldier can wipe out an enemy ma chine gun nest ten canadian soldiers may capture an enemy outpost two hundred thousand canadian troops can press back a germany army but the mountainous task or beating germany completely and anally requires the help of at least three million canadians here on the home front the support which our soldiers sailors and airmen require for the last punishing blow comes primarily through the sale of victory bonds and to make that support adequate canada needs at least three million purchasers during the seventh victory loan campaign who will make their individual purchases larger than before v the good and he bad it isnt long since retail stores felt it compulsory to keep open long hours to get a share of the trade to maintain the establishment now with more buy ing power than ever it is found shopping hours that have been drastically reduced aro quite adequate the wartime restrictions havo made changes too in credit and delivery systems for retail business when they and other changes were inaugurated many felt they would work a hardship during the change over there was some confusion but now few will advocate return to many of these long hours and overlapping and wasteful methods that were costly and quite unnecessary thore are many wartime restrictions that might well bo discarded at the earliest possiblo moment but there are likewise many changes brought about by the emergencies of war that will bo woll to retain in the days of peacetime in the postwar period it will bowell to sort these restrictions carefully and sift out the good and the bad rather than make a wholesale discard of everything v wartime incongruities glimpses of life in europes oppressed countries aro filtering into canada as allied armies steadily but surely bring about tha liberation of these lands from german domination throughwar correspon dents reports and news photos canadians ore learn- ing more and noro about the hardship degradation and privation suffered during hve years of war the sympathy engendered by these accounts should in no way be tempered by reports of factional strife in these countries of gay and protracted lib eration celebrations of crowds at race meetings and of the latest parision fashions these are the incon gruities of war sidelights that cause a minor mentul shock at first glance but which pale into insignifi cance when set against the depressing picture of conditions in the greater purt of europe on this side of the atlantic we huve bien engross ed with the broad aspects of war of german and allied offensives and withdrawals the effects of the german air blitz on britain the atrocities in poland and greece and the nazi persecution of the jews so black has been this overshadowing picture that we have hardly sensed that life has gone on for the suffering peoples a life only possible beoauso it has been buoyed by the hope of ultimate release every picture has its light as well as its shade and a little thought puts the incongiuities of war in their proper perspective the spark of freedom has been kept alive under conditions never before known in the history of europe and the resiliency of the emancipated nations has been thoughtprovoking in n its revelation but behind it all lies the fact that the wartoru and pillaged countries cannot fully recover without the help that only the new world can give in abund ance canadas part in bringing about this recovery win be no mean one whore does the auavoacoiuty belong we hear a great deal about indigent hospital patients at council meetings and the burden added to those who pay taxes by those who have not the present ability to foot their own bills it seems that hospitals too suffer a loss in treating these patients at the meeting of the ontario hospitals associa tion in toronto recently a report presented showed that a survey of fifty hospitals made by a joint committee of the ontario hospital association and the department of health had revealed the fact that the cost of caring tor an indigent patient in a public ward exceeded by sms per diem the contribution made by the government and the muicipality the average per diem cost as shown by the survey was 384 for a public ward patient of which government and municipality pay 2j5 a day dr fred w routley secretary of the association pointed out that these voluntary hospitals have to take revenue from the private patients which should be used to extend the facilities of the hospitals to pay the difference in what is received for indigent patients and what their actual upkeep is this is manifestly unfair a resolution was adopted by the association asking that the care of indigent patients should be wholly paid out of public funds it seems no matter how it is done the citizen who can pay is the one who will foot the bill in montreal they havca tax on restaurant meals termed hospital tax just why those who eat away from home should pay the hospital tax we never quite understood but we paid it when we ate in montreal and were thankful not to have to patronize their hospitals we suggest that a more justifiable im position of hospital tax in any province would be on those who drink and in that way many of those who enter hospitals as indigents would be making a contribution to their own maintenance in illness
