men to take civic office buine and induitry have aid let j leap out of politic that comfortable policy i in too many plac e leading to dire trouble insurance not savings unemployment insurance is making bums out of some young men they would rather take sib a week in insurance than go where work is available this statement was not voiced by a reaction ary conservative industrialist it is the considered opinion recrntly enpres ted of a man intimately acquainted with the op eration of our unemployment insurance com mission and one who is entirely sympathetic to the plight of thoe who are obless through no fault of their own he must remain anonymous because ho is a tenior civil servant but hi views are worthy of itudy far too many canadian look upon jobless insurance fund a money which they themselv es have saved and therefore money which they have a right to dispose of ai they tee fit that of course is far from the case joblesvtf lurance fund are not the sum total of the savingfof all canadian workers if each contributor decided to quit work and draw all the unemployment insurance to which he or she is entitled the fund would be speedily bjpke while there are 585 million dollars in the fed eral unemployment insurance treasury it is worth noting that in 1949 a year in which cana dian employment was at a high the fund staged a very close race between costs and income unemployment insurance is insurance and nothing more it is intended to cover short term emergencies it is paid out of funds contributed only onethud by the employee and the balance by the employer and general tax paying public insurance is only good if it is paid out under scund business principles it is not designed and never was to bonus idleness attention governments this editorial is directed to provincial and federal members of parliament and to senior civil servants but even if the idea it suggests is essentially sound it will need the support of electors all over canada to put it into effect here is the idea would it not be more sen sible for opr federal and provincial government in decentralizing further their offices to locate in cities and towns not already favoured by ex panding industrial growth in other words why should not governments locate more branch offices in municipalities tn which office space is less expensive housing is easier to get and in which the added employ ment potential would ease 1o some extent the jobless problem certainly convenience in communication ser vices is a factor tn certain places but we wonder if this consideration is not more than offset by other gains too many timekeepers it s an old uymg that too many cook tpod the broth but its a modem fact that loo many timekeepers keep this section of ontario in a tur moil the period for observance of daylight sev ing time had become fairly uniform and was be gmmng to operate smoothly then along came the hydro shortage and another tourie of m fluerue star led to extend the time when mr saunder chairman of ilw ontario hydro a tied toronlo and hamilton to remain on daylight saving time unlil november be appar ently failed to grasp the full meaning of hi re qurtt all the communities withn forty or fifty miles of thete c tie supply many mater al m tin ty and receive many material from these cities for instance the milk supply of the cities come from tre district outside many of the industries totaled out de ttt- cities have city office you just cant change the lime switches m the 1y wiikoul an effect for many mile beyond the limit the result that the centre with n forty or ftfty mle of the cities find it impossible to oper ate on anything but the identical lime of the cit ie tb of coure defeats the original interest of mr saunder to cut down eak demand on hydro by having staggered working hours it ai so acids to confusion in the whole district can t we gel an official timekeeper or is ihe meddling with time to continue each yar to meet a variety ol conveniences autumn glory at this time of year we really have a look at the same trees we have een every day for month without ever noticing they are trans formed completely as the leave change color and the line from the poem trees comes to mind only god can male a trx country sideroad are more attractive for driving now despite some bumps and dust the views are worth a detour around a concession or two and a special trip of sightseeing right around your own town is recommended at one spot on no 2h highway lytwecn acton and mil ton the sudden vista out over the fields lelow and ixryond is breathtaking the road curve a little around a hill and the panorama swing across the screen of the front windshield me a moving picture like a travelogue of canada at its best or something like that it odd that only in nature can all colors com f lement each other different shades of reds and yellows and oranges look teautiful in any com bination with the contrasting green as a back oound materials paintings wallpapers color ed photographs all try to imitate nature but can never approach the glory of the trees grass and flowers themselves there s only one old stand by of a poem that pops into our head every fall along the line of smoky hills the crimson forest stands we often forget that the beauty that inspires poets is not off m some exotic country it s right ground us editorial notes it seems to be very difficult to bargain col lectively when our thinking is individual from all over ontario comes word of the bad effect of the weather on tho success of fall fairs even western canada affected the east when a blanket of smoke travelled 000 miles to wipe out daylight most of a day country town a place where when you meet a friend crossing the street you don t have to scurry for the sidewalk to complete your chat the first responsibility of any business is to oive service to its customers tp do so it must remain solvent profits are just as essential as wages a business winch makes no profit em ploys no one school teachers are blaming parents and par ents teachers employers are concerned at the apparent failure of both we do not know who i at fault but certainly the spoken and written word of our rising generation s being marred far too frequently by a slovenly disregard of the elementary rules of grammar and spelling the businessman who is proud of the goods and services he offers is proud to have his signa ture appear regularly in his advertisements be cause consistent advertising of quality goods and services is profitable to both buyer and seller the advertising
