of government sale in eight provinces and suggested the necessity of giving consideration to the problem of con servation in this time of national em ergency one of the questions which natur ally prese itself is how do the economists view the situation the men who have at their disposal facts and figures not available to the aver age citizen may we quote from the writings of a few v tjie late rt hon viscount now- den chancellor of the exchequer in the labor government of oret brt tain said in 1936 all experience has shown that the liquor trade is one which in the public interest should be discouraged it is wise policy reduce the duties on necessary arti cles such as tea coffee cocoa sugar fruit and foodstuffs so as to make them cheaper and thus encourage con sumption but pot in the case of drink high duties on this article should be maintained so as to discdur aie purchase and to turn expenditure into more useful channels but the best of all ways to stop the expenditure on drink is fobn the individual himself to stop wasting hub substance upon it emphasis in quotations is ours the late mr william graham former financial secretary to the treasury and president or the board or trade is quoted thus let it be urged as a simple economic truth that no amount of subsequent revenue which is derived from the liquor traffic will ever compen sate for the original misdirection of the

very energetically both before the declaration of the war and since much good work has been accomplished and every member is ready and anxious to do bis part in bringing this war to a successful conclusion to these yeterans of the great war the present one is but a continuation of that one in which they fought and which they now find they did not finish even though at the time it seemed like victory years have passed and most of them find they through sickness and disability caused mostly through their service to their country and their age are now unable to take their place win their sons in the ranks of the fighting forces some however who find themselves still fit have shown they are ready for then- country s call by joining the canadian active service force and we salute them others are only waiting an opportunity to do like wise as for those who must perforce be left the canadian iwlon has conducted a national survey of veterans and each is listed with ajl par ticulars so that should his services be required in any capacity jar toe government he will be ready to do his bit already a number from georgetown have been employed as guards and it may be mentioned here when called upon in the first instance were at their posts within an hour the georgetown legion has thrown open all the facilities of its club rooms to those of the militia who maj have enlisted for active service or who may be doing guard duties also it is both willing and anxious to cooperate with any town organizations participating in war work and they will be happy to team that others are doing likewise for getting party politics or partisanship in the end that with united effort very definite results may be obtained so far as is known ncne of the industries in the town have come forward with a statement of policy in regard to their men enlisting it would b a splendid gesture on their part if they let it be known that any of their staff who joined his majesty s forces would at the very least be assured of fils job when he returned the legion has already done this it is also hoped that those places left vacant by enlistment may be temporarily filled by those who in the great war offered thelr all and who are now unemployed the legion throughout canada has thousands of men registered according to their trades and the george town branch has its own lists there must be someone there who can fill the gap members of the legion have by sacrifice earned their right to membership they are again willing to rededicate their lives to god king and country and live up to their motto
