In its decision to exempt the farmer from the socialism which will be applieci everywhere else,' the CCF reverses the theory of social- ist parties in Brîtain, in Russia, in the United States and aise- where. They have always insist- ed that land, being the basic wealth and primary productive machinery of any nation, must be the first thing that a government controls if it is to control the na- tional economy. Though the farmer is the greatast.producer in Canada and his land tha most im- portant productive machinery, the CCF says it will not touch it while controlling the national economy. The CCF does not truly believa this. It exempts the farmer from the great national plan of social- ism because it wants votes and it knows the farmer does not want to hand his land over to the gov- ernrnant and woik as a govern- ment laborer upon it. But the CCF knows, and every socialist knows, that if the whole national economy is to be socialized, land, its most important instrument, must be socialized also. The government cannot man- age all other industries and let the agricultural industry operata as it pleases. A free agricultural industry, seeking the highest pos- sible prices for its products and demanding the- lowest possible prices from the government's socialized manufacturing indus- tries, would turn the national plan into chaos. Whila it is not good politics at the moment to admit these facts to the farmers, and they are therefore denied in officiai CCF literature, some C C F leaders have been honest enough to ad- mit them. For example, Mr. Angus MacInnis, the right-hand man of Mr. Coldwell in the House of Commons and a life-long stu- dent of socialism, told a CCF con- vention that "if the farmer wants a co-operative commonwealth in which everything is socialized but himself, then he had better have a co-operative common- wealth of his own." In other words there is no place for priv- ate farming within the CCF na- tional plan. But Mr. Maclnnis admitted in Ontario Weekly News inI3rief Ontario Labor Minister Charles Daley announced last week that the act fixing an eight hour day, a 48 hour week and vacations with pay will corne into effect July lst and that regulations governing the legisiations are now being. framed at Queen's Park. The dance hall fire in Hamilton last week ranks among the worst fire disasters in Canada on the basis of loss of llue and injured. The stunned and grieving city saw the list of lits dead mount to ten and its injured to 34 as weary searchers combed through the ruis of the Moose Temple build- ing. Federal Coal Controller E. J. Brunning has urged residents of Ontario to start purchasing limit- ed supplies of icoal now available in their commùnities. He warned householders they rnay run the risk of "going short" next winter unless immediate steps are. taken to obtain their authorîzed re- quirements. T. W. A. Milgate of Christie St. Hospital, a bedridden veteran of the last war, whose phîlosophy of1 life is unselfish service for those1 less fortunate, has offered one of his eyes to any young and blind- ed veteran of this war, so that the veil of darkness may be lifted. The 64-year-old war veteran of- fered the cornea of his eye toi William K. Esling, Progressivet Conservative member of Parlia-i ment for Kootenay West, whot has waged and won a long battie1 for cheaper hearing aids for per- sons afflicted with deafness ai- though handicapped with grow- ing blindness.t Ontario industries are becom- ing increasingly consciaus of the fact that a heartache can reduce a worker's efficiency just as much as a toothache. Conse- quentiy mare and more firms are seeking the aid af psychiatry ta ralease employees f rom the daubts and fears that have them cabined, cribbed and confined ta duli and ineffectual lives. Ail scheduled hearings before the Ontario Labor Court have been completed and the jurisdic- tion of employer-emplayee cal- lçctive bargaining agencies have been transferred ta tha Ontario Labor Relations Board sitting in the Parliamant Buildings. In a short valedictory Mr. Justice Chevrier said last week that "we do not adjourn the Labar Court now; we simply pass out by sta- tutory anactment." Dry warma weathar during the first week ai May has enablad farmers in Southwestern Ontario ta make rapid progress in seed- ing of spring grains the Ontario Department ai Agriculture re- ports. In the eastern sections seeding was reparted an iight souls whila in Northamn Ontario farmars have only startad opera- tions. another address that the far mers of Canada were not ready for the socialization of their farms at present and added: "We will have to force them to the "social- istic view by the pressure of the economic situation." That is plain English. If the farmers will not accept socializatian of their land they must be forced to accept it by pressure of "the economic sit- uation"-by the ability of a soc- ialist government to ruin them unless they accept socialism. Again, Mr. Colin Cameron, the number two man of the CCF movement in British Columbia and a leadîng orator in its legis- lature, wrote in The Canadian Forum: "Collectivism in 'agricul- ture is inevitable. It is the task of socialists to point "this out to farmers and urge them to build their own collective 'organization before some one else comes along and does it for them.' In other words, if the farmers will not embark on socialism themselves "someone eise," the CCF, will corne along and force socialismn upon them. When such utterances brought a sharp reaction against -hie CCF among the farmers of British Columbia, the CCF News, official organ of the party, tried to ex- plain them away. It denied that the CCF plannd to socialize farms, but said it recognized: "trends in modemn society which can reasonably be ex- pected eventually to affect agriculture along with the rest of the economy . . . The trend in this case is discern- ible throughout the modemn world - the trend towards collective rnethods of pro- duction. This collectivism is not a socialîst theory but an observed fact in the world about us and develops alike within a capitalist society and a socialist one as a result of modemn technology." The farmer, in plain terms, is asked to accept the ultimate socialization of his land, not as a CCF policy but as an inevitable development which no one, not even the CCF for all its love of the farmer, can prevent. The CCP says to the farmer in effect: "We don't intend to socialize your farm, but "it will be socialized anyway. W're sorry, but we can't avoid it, "because it is in- evitable." THEY ALL LIKE BRACKEN That prominent politicians of 'bath the Liberal and Progressive Conservative parties are in agree- ment that John Bracken is not s0 rnuch a politician as an outstand- Sing and experienced administra- ttor in the realm of gavernment 1was expressed in cross-fire in the 3House of Commons, May 26, dur- ing the debate of the estimates of the department of Natural Re- sources. Hansard records the following passages in regard to forest policy: Hon. Mr. Crerar, Liberal, and Minister of Mines and Resources in Mackenzie King's Cabinet: "The hon, gentleman is putting a great deal of faith in Mr. Bracken. Well I do nat quarrel with that. I know Mr. Bracken. I support- ed Mr. Bracken in several pro- vincial elections in Manitoba when the Conservative govern- ment was trying its best to de- stroy him. I arn glad ha thinks Mr. Bracken is interested in a forest policy. I believe he is." Mr. Perley, Conservative: "What did the Minister think of his present leader when he first came into this House?", Mr. Crearer: I"Well now-the hon. member doas not need ta barge into this discussion be- cause he was one of the gentle- men, who, if I mistake nat, came into Manitoba and campaigned against Mr. Bracken." Mr. Perley: "I ask the Minister ta withdraw that. Neyer in the warld did I make a speech in Manitoba against Mr. Bracken." And £0 the debate went on with members af bath aid lina parties boasting of their admiration for Mr. Bracken, aIl seeking ta gat into the official record, Hansard, thair personal opinions concern- ing the charactar and abilities af the man who is now national leader af the Progressive Con- servative party. With these re- cogn zed political partizans s0 openly agreed, this would seem ta be the finest kind af testimony ta the qualities af a leader and administrator neyer defeated in over two decades of public lufe. PLANS CONSTRUCTION NOT RECONSTRUCTION Ontario's past-war planning will be "construction not recon- struction" Prof. George B. Lang- fard, director ai tha Provincial Department ai Planning and De- velopment daclared last week. "Many af aur prablems have been with us for decades," ha said. "Thay have not been cor- rected. We are far behind other cauntries in planning and de- velapment and that complicates the probiem today for it means that we must educata people ta the possibilities af planning." Dr. Langford said the past-war planning of this country must be dona in groups, "Thare must ba a central body as the ca-ordinat- ing autharity ta prevent over- lapping and duplication." Although the cost af making past-war plans is a local respan- sibility the cost af putting them into effect is another matter, said Prof. Langiord. He warnad thati when the time cames for Pro- vincial and Faderai authoritias ta assist in financing a community's plans "only those communities that have approved plans can ex- Pect assistance.'? BRANNIGAN'S LICENSE SUSPENDED FOR THREE VEARS Fine Driver For Dangerous Driv- ing and Having Liquor. Charged with dangerous driv- ing as a result of a collision on No. 2 Highway which took place a few feet west of the Oshawa Missionary College road about 8:40 p.m., last May 5, Clifford T. Brannigan, of Bowmanville, who Pieaded "not guilty,"1 was con- victed in police court, Friday morning, by Magistrate F. S. Ebbs who suspended his driver's license for a period of three Years and sentenced him to two months in the county jail with an alternative fine of $50 and costs. Aiso convicted on a charge of having liquor in his car last May 5, to which he pleaded guilty, Brannigan was sentenced to one month in the county jail with an alternative fine of $25 and costs. The jail sentences wpre to run consecutively, Magistrate Ebbs stated. The fines were paid, how- ever. In imposing sentence upon Brannigan, who was acquitted on a dangerous driving charge a year ago, His Worship comment- ed: "The main thing is to get you off the road. The last time you were acquitted as there was some doubt but this time there is no doubt. The evidence in this case speaks for itself. There is no doubt that you were travelling on the wrong sida of the road before the collision with Mr. Bryant's car. Mr. Bryant became confused as to why you were there and what you were going to do and tried to turn out to the left and miss you but of course you de- cided at this time to get on your own side of the road."
