I urge the farmers ta consuit aur Agri- cultural Representatives andi se- cure their heip and advice at al times. A moratorium must be deciareci on many debts. This is necessary until such time as we recast aur whole manetary system. When this war is over, and ail wars do end, xve shahl neyer again put money in the driver's seat. Neyer again shahl money be the master of man. Neyer again shahl we go through a depression comparable xith the last one. Neyer again shail we by idieness destroy the morale of a nation while a cen- tral gavernment is claaked with the authority ta issue andi contrai curency and credit. And even although xve may emerge from this xvar with a debt of untoldi billions, every bond issued in Canada is taxable' bath xith re- spect ta coupons andi principal. A ten billion dollar national debt on one side of the leciger is bal- anced on the other side of the iedgem by ten billions of taxable bonds autstanding. The whole resalves itseif into a domestie ecanomic poblem. The nation it- self is no poorer in material things except by the wastage of war. It is ail a matter of bookkeeping andi taxation. The nation which con- trals its credit andi currency can ýnot go bankmupt, so I say in this ememgency egadless of debt or any other money factor keep moving the wheeis of production an aur tarms, in aur farests and in aur factories. The Liquor Question Today a wave of prohibition hysteria is sweeping the country. Before we again attempt anather futile effort ta force prohibition let us first review aur experiences of the past. Man is a stubbomn' animal, that is xvhy he is supreme on earth. You can only go so far in egulating his way of life even in wartime. Governments do nat create a liquar prabiem but have ta accept the responsihility of cantroiling the taffic. The peo- ple buy the liquor unsaliciteci and while you can in gavemnment stop the sale the same as yau can the sale of an automobile, yau can not contrai the production of liquor like you can the production of an automobile. It is flot much of a step tram the licensed to the illicit distiller nom fram the beverage room ta the bootlegger. .I pay tribute ta Mr. Ililey. Canada's Minister of Finance, for impasing an even heavier tax ail liquors. Most of the money spent on licauor taday is a direct cash contribution ta the revenues of the public treasuries. The maoney thus deriveci is disbursed for social services andi aur war et-j fart. I amn quite satisfied toa that Save Sugar EAT HONEY 1942 HONEY NOW ON SALE LARGE OR S31ALL QUANTITIES Charles IR. Knox Orono - Ph. 42r2 gmaund inta the welcame arms of the ciass of society which handled the illicit traffic during the last unfortunate experience xve had in aur attempt ta farce prohibi- tion even as a war measure against the xiii of the people. If prohibition will help the war effort let us have it with a ven- geance. However, inasmuch as the spirits are made largely from domestie grains of which xve have a present surplus and the liquar now being consumed has been aged in starage for years and the labar involved is largely in dis- tribution and sale, it is not an important ecanamic factor in that respect. The government xiii ad- here ta a policy of local option and shahl continue ta provide the machinery xith which any muni- cipaiity can close its beverage rooms or vendor stores. Lord Woolton, Food Controller of Eng- land, dealing with this very sub- ject said recentiy that he didni't propose ta add ta the govern- ment's problems by atianing beer. "There wouid be the dan- ger that a severe restriction of it wouid resuit in widespread indus- triai discontent, as it did in the last war, xith a harmful effeet upon aur war effort," Lard Woal- tan deciared. " Expeet Food Rationing Concluding, the Prime Minis- ter, in his officiai capacity as Pro- vincial Treasurer, took his audi- ence into his confidence on fiscal matters during wartime and hint- eci that xve may weli expect foodi rationing 'ere long; that there wauld be no fear of overproduc- tion and that Canada's fammers, can produce, must produce andi wili produce, despite ail handi- caps, the foodstuffs needed ta sustain the fighting men of the United Nations. He prociaimeci his xholehearted endorsation of the Fedemation of Agriculture andi lauded its aims. It was recagniL- ed that farmers had ta arganize ta demand acceptance of their ecanomic ights, and had they îlot commenced cooperation of this sort there was the ever present threat that labor organizations suich as the C.IO. might enter the picture among farmers as they were attempting in the U.S.A.
