THE CANADIAN gTATE~MAN. ROWMANVTT.T.R nT'.T'rARTn Militarized Socialism Mn. E. B. Jolliffe, Leader o! the 00F in Ontario, delivened a lec- ture on Febrvary 7fb las! to a group o! bis party workers on "Social Ownership - Dominion and Provincial." The purpose of th 1lecture was f0 make dean to t!E9inds of the workers the in- tentions o! the Party, and "what we are trying f0 do wben we accep! the responsibilities of Power." The lecture was a sort o! "sales' talk," but if could hardiy be called a "pep talk"- a! leas!, in ifs conclusion, for fhe lectunen, aften outlining in eiab- onate and pictunesque detail wbat 00F intended to do, told bis wonkens that it could not be done. We have a mimeographed copy o! this lecture before us. It fakes up oven eleven closely typed foolscap pages. Social Process Mn. Jolliffe began bis lecfure in an opfimistic tone: "Now thaf the 00F is approaching power," be said, "if bas become more than ever necessary for us to be dlean about our objectives. We must be dlean in oun nefenences f0 social ownership when we an- swen the questions o! the gen- enal public and in oùr debates with opponents." Mn. Joli!! e then proceeded f0 answer fhe question, "Wbat is meant wben the 00F uses the term socializa- tion?" "It is dlean," he said, WÂNTED: MORE OOVERAGE WITH higher costs for replacement you will be wise to look over your in- surance policies to make certain they cover as <uly as possible aaxy loss that may occur.

It a Pnocess exfending oven a pei iod o! time." Mn. Jolliffe did n( attemp! f0 estimate the lengtb that period, but he issued the fo lowing warning: "The public wi not enjoy fhe full benefits( social ownenship until the pni cess o! socializafion is fan a. vanced-unfil indusfry and trac in this countny become predomi nantiy socialis! as it is predomi nantly capitalist today." i Having made it dean that ther( Swere no "short cuts to socializa. 1tion," Mn. Jolliffe empbasizc that the 00F did not propos( wholesale confiscation," becaus( he said "that would be inequit. 1able, and because *it would dis. funb or destroy many o! the ecor- omîc processes wbich we wisb tc 1continue f0 function as privatE enterprise ,either !emporarily oc permanently." That may appeai to be a compliment and a gener- ous concession !o pnivafe enter- prise, but Mn. Jolliffe ieff nc noom for doubt as f0 the ul!imatE purpose o! the subtie "process. If would be a !orm o! slow con- fiscation. "We propose," be con- !inued, "ta compensafe the own- ens, no! in cash, but in secunitieç bearing a neasonable rate o! in- fenest." But he hastened f0 add that these secunities would not "ýcontinue to levy fribuf e for al] time f0 corne." Graduated in- corne fax and deafh duties would sec f0 that. The income ta: would expropniate the '-reason- able rate o! inferes!," and fhe death dut ies would expropniafe fhe principal. Ail o! wbich would render fhe "securifies" wontbless. This process the lec- tuner naively described as "an ordenly way and witbouf any in- justice f0 those wbo bave legifi- mate cdaim f0 considerafion." Rewards vs. Profits Mn. Jolliffe bad much f0 say about "profit and reward." He claimed fba! there was a definif. distinction befween those two ideas. Pnices f0 farmers and fisb- ermen, wages f0 workers, sal- aries f0 teachers, commissions fo salesmen, there were "rewards' for services rendened. "Profif," said Mn. Jollif! e, "is something else. If is a premium over and above the actual cost o! produc- tion." Socializafion wouid cuimin- ate this profit motive-at least that was fhe impression Mn. Jol- liffe conveyed in this part o! his lecture. But later on, wben deal- ing wifb the quesfion o!f aking over industries, he saîd: "Indus- tries which are exfnemeiy Profit- able should be socialized eariier raf ber fban later; similariy, the socialization o! unpno!itable anc froublesome enferprises should corne lafe rafhen than eanly." It would neyer do for fhe 00F fc take over 'the froublesome en- ferprises - fhey would die out, anyway, since fhey could hardly compete wîth the big govern- ment monopoly.

The Agricultural Supplies Board states that there is a great- er need for home production of vegetables now than at any time since the outbreak of the war. Every available bit of land that is suitable should be put into a garden, states the Board and adds that seeds, fertilizers, spray ma- iteniais and tools are available in isufficient quantities, but urges avoidance of waste.. Another feature of the new edi- tion of "The Wartîme Garden" is a table indicating the best kinds and varieties of vegetables to grow, the amount o! seed or plants required for garden rows of 50 feet and the probable return obtainable. 4nother table shows the time to s0W seed or set out plants for every region in Can- ada.
