bright robes of gold the fields adorn the hills with joy are ringing the valleys stand so thick with corn that even they are singing as others sec it a week or so ago theannual conventiop of the canadian ucekly newspapers association was held at niagara falls your editor was unable to attend the sessions and we therefore had to glean our information from press re ports and bulletins commenting on the event the financial post says in an editorial headed strength of the nation of all the publications which go into the homes of canada few get read more thoroughly than local weekly newspapers the 750 week lies in canada print more than a million copies each week reaching most of the 7 million can adians who lie in areas of under 10000 popul ation the responsibility of the weekly editor to his community and readers is clearly stated by r a giles 1h8 president of the cwna in a message to their convention at niagara falls recently it is the aim af the local weekly to boost and build up its local people and com munity which in turn spreads t o larger spheres for a sound public opinion on national affairs is impossible without a sound public opinion on local affairs we are still in the midst of a critical period of transition following world war ii with problems ot readiustment still on our hands how can we overcome these by our willingness to work harder for more production and not continually wanting more pav fot less work it is here that the individual can plav his part along with the newspaper in helping to build up a nation of happy united people strong socially economically and politically the excellence of the weekly papers publish ed in this countrs towns and villages is con clusive prool of the tact they reflect the basic strength and soundness of their communities for these papers are well supported by local and national anertisers and well read by eerone in the community in newspaper competitions while the editor wasnt atthe sessions of the canadian weekl newspapers association this vear the papers over which we have guidance were in the annual contests and it niav prove interesting to our readers to know where their local paper stands m suji i diiiiiiniotiwide competition both the flee pi ess and cmidiin champ- ion were entered in class ii tor papers of 1100 jo 2000 circulation there weie 52 entries in j this class and only the scoring of the first i ten in the competition were published bo ill the acton and milton papers were in this group j of the first ten for the best all round paper the kree press was in fourth

two of tlin five ontario papers in- thin uroup were from llulton county we are pleased naturally with the competition and we felt perhupa our renders would like to know how their local paper utond in relation to those of similar circulation and that your town was represented by its paper at the national convention even if the editor could not attend other ontario papers in thin group who were listed were the delhi ncwh gaiianoiiie reporter and clinton newsrecord he ivvth lnt4t too miieh ttno flrtttirlal pout the drubbing ontario citirenx are taking from hydro and civic officials over the power shortage fins them hanging on the ropes from every newspaper messages jump out about your hydro system the radio blares forth gravelvoiced exhortations about your txower shortage several times sourcesi of surplus power have been found to take up some of the slack but prompt official statements are issued warn ing that this is only a drop in the bucket housewives are told to do their ironing on fri days workers are told they should work week endsrstores are urged to close all daywednes days instead of the usual half day daylight saving ended on schedule since any gain by extending it would not have saved enough power to make any difference to add to this confusion ontarios hydro chairman robert h saunders has stated that the people themselves arc to blame for the power shortage because they didnt heed the warnings given in the spring and made no effort to prevent it he say9 it is foolish to blame the hydro that sort of charge wont go down with the customers having put power matters in the hands of a public commission they expect their interests to be better protected recently ap pointed mr saunders may not like to inherit the blame but trying to pass the buck jo the people is no master stroke of diplomacy power consumption has been increasing rapidly in ontario and in all other provinces since before the war it is true that ontario hasbeen embarrassed by cuts in deliveries from quebec nevertheless citizens know that other provinces have no shortage if a shareholder corporation monopoly like bell telephone for instancewere to fall down on its service job the way ontario hydro has done it is easy to imagine what dreadful squawks would follow but here we have a publicly owned monopoly failing and the cus tomers are being read lectures telling them in effect to take it and like it that the shortage stheir fault editorial notes dont use one light that is not essential hydro is yours but only a small portion of it with all party lenders selected perhaps wc
