office mm poppy day local appeal the local branch of the canadian legion is making its annual poppy day- appeal to the people of this community onnovember 6th the poppy fund is now n recognized institution wherever the canadian legion exists in canada and it serves a twofovd purpose of very great merit the money which is raised by the sale and distribution of the wreath and poppy the symbol of sacrifice is used entirely to re lieve unusual distress among war veterans of all the empire wars and their families this is where the poppy fund raised through the sale of wreaths and poppies by the local branch of the legion steps in and provides relief for the situation all vetcraft wreaths and poppies sold by the canadian legion are manufactured in vet- craft shops throughout canada solely by par tially disabled and handicapped veterans men and women who urgently require earnings in addition to their meagre pensions for their sus tenance by purchasing a vetcraff wreath citizens can find much satisfaction in knowing that they are helping these handicapped veterans to o1fairil aliveliliooa whtcltthewauttebthenvisc lack on account of their special disabilities this twofold appeal will find n ready re sponse in the hearts and minds of the people of this community which has always been pre pared to make the way easier for those of its citizens who served country and empire in the empire wars we commend it to your sympa thetic consideration in the hope that you will respond generously and thus help to hold the torch flung to you by those who did not come back democracys future leaders against a background of assassination civil war and a generally darkening world picture millions of our youth went back to college and school in an era rrademarked by division and chaos the question arises what are they being educated for how to make money and get ahead are no longer adequate in the face of world crisis thematerialists ore training their youth to use division and chaos as tools to gain world control we find the fruits of materialism por trayed in youth graduating from our colleges ns fullfledged marxists miss elizabeth bentleys testimony in the recent spy trials dramatized this although a vassar graduated with 20 years of education she fell for the marxist line according to her she was never taught the basic moral structure on which americas founding fathers built their nation the los angeles board of education in the face of the challenge has unanimously adopted a new statement of policy for teaching amer icas ideology in the schools mrs eleanor b allenioneofthemembers of the board out lined this stutement the materialistic ideologies of fiisbism and communism have been on the march vwilh power plan and purpose in this twentieth cen tury democracy as conceded bv washington jefferson lincoln and other curly statesmen can only survive af we affirm boldly the ideol ogy that will put the democracies on the offen sive in this ar of ideas the schools of the democratic nations must therefore teach their future leaders the demo cratic ideology which is based on moral and spiritual concepts ships donj just run themselves someone has to give thought and time to their guidance sometimes you may disagree with that guidance and think another course should have been pur sued but at least give credit to the citizen who had the courage of his convictionsand nerved to the best of his ability constructive criticism is always desirable but crltipism without a constructive suggestion or remedy is of little or no use if a man or woman has given good service to the commun ity in a public post it doesnt hurt to tell him about it a word of praise is as easy as ridicule andiscertainlymore fare these are days when men have specialized interests that allow them little leisure many capable men feel they cannot spare the time from their own business to give to the affairs of their mtmjcipnity and the multiplicity of regulations from provincial and dominion governments often makes their local duties more frustrating and unsatisfactory it will be a sorry day when the small municipalities do not have sufficient men for public office even now it becomes more difficult as men find the honor does not compensate for the effort and criticism involved to be effective our system must have the best men and women as leaders in our munici palities municipal affairs will be in the fore ground the next two months its the duty of every citizen not just a few to assume interest if our community is to grow and prosper and fill its niche in a better world the part may seem small but its certainly important shahie3icaii30l recollections ol aclon 2e cionr3 back in umi information for the politicians george gallup originator and director of the gallup poll has been sensing public opin ion on the magnetic effect of various types of political campaigning throughout the united states he finds some interesting angles to the appeal of politicians for public support here are some of the revelations on party platforms gallup says that nn outrageously bad platform may lose some votes and a phcnommally good platform may win same but generally political platforms hnvj little effect upon the voter thirteen years of polling show that a poli tical speech or evcnnscrics of speeches do not change many votes the value of a prominent man as candidate has much less effect upon the voters than is generally supposed an appeal to women is n wasted effort mr aikk crlpiw and ilia unlitf of workmen aro enuaiion till wmik tn roofing tho now

canadas current trading position with the united states underlines the extent to which vigorous demand in that country has thus far more than counterbalanced the contraction of our markets elsewhere the bank of montreal makes this observation in its latest business re view which is devoted chiefly to a comparative study of canadas exports and imports in the first eight months of 1b47 and 1948 the substantial improvement m the do minions adverse balance of trade with the united states the bank says has been achiev ed mainly by a 35 per cent increase in exports to that country and has been dependent to a much lesser extent upon reduction of imports which are down by only 10 per cent in the eight month- comparison principal items listed as contributing to the higher export values hove
