as to why acton should trail in the percentage of grows value of production going for salaries and wages the reader has work ed out the percentages and since he ha shown interest so keenly we will be glad to give him the figures he requires from the same source from whith we secured the other in formation under cost of materials here are the figures for the same municipalities which we quoted the parable of the hot dog there was a man who lived by the side of the road and sold hot dogs he was hard of hearing so he hid no radio he had troubje ith his eyes so he read no newspapers but he sold good hot dogs he was a firm believer in advertising so ha put up signs along the high way advertising the merit of his bot dogs and he stood by the side of the road and cried buy a hot dog miner and people bought he increased tus meat and bun orders he bought a bigger store to take care of his trade finally business became so good that he brought his son home from the ctty to help him then something happened his son said path er havent you been reading the newspapers there a a big depression on and the furupean situation is terrible the domestic situation is worse everything is going to pot whereupon the father thought well my son has been to college he has lived in the city with big buainess men he reads the pap i era and listens to the radio he ought to know so the father cut down on the meat and bun orders curtailing his advertising and no ung er bothered to stand by the highway and call out his wares his aauwyetl off almost over night he said to his boy you were right son we

study of percentages that found interest for our correspondent the only other column heading in the booklet which we have not supplied is that headed cost of fuel and electricity which can readily be given if it is of interest to readers we are glad to learn that we are not alone in our interest in such statistics and that others find enjoyment in working on such tabulations we must aiumer communion recently powerful canadian and u s bus ness groups have launched a nation wide cam paign to advertise the advantages of free enter prise over communism we have the highest standard of living tn the world higher wages shorter hours lower prices run the slogans this is all true and to our credit but commun ism doesnt challenge the fact that we hae doubled production since lio or hate cut 1h hours from our average work week instead the communists exploit the inequalities that re masn in our system wealth can demoralize just as poverty embitters inequalities can breed mistrust and division at any income level red tactics work just as successfully if our tandardof living were ten times as high as it is inequalities might be ten times as great feryone tan think of someone else who is to

do up to 60 miles an hour with 45 miles to the gallon and will weigh only 980 pounds being largely of aluminium there is a grow ing feeling that canadian manufacturers are missing the boat in popular
