A, Living <Kilied in Action lln ta!y) Choosing~ A Candidatefor The Coming Election- Dîuring flic present wveck botli Liberals and Progressive Conservafives are holding meetinugs eoîcerned with selecting candid- afes to confest flic coming Dominion election. The former, go int o execufive session in a closed meeting for party discussions. The latter hold an open convention at Orono, Friday, to choose a candidate. Thus locally, wc now move toward organization for an clection f laf may lie called at any time but cerfainly before next June, whcn flic life of flic present goverfiment expires. Bofli old- line parties are clearing flic decks for ac- tion but so far there is no indication from other parties or groups in this constifucncy. The press, of course, in flic public inferesf, must take cognizance of these events. The Sfafesman's stand lias been consisfenfly to urge selection of flic best candidates pos- sible, preferably amoug fliose of youtliful, inu- formed and constructive opinions no maffer what tlie party. Personal infegrity and flic widc view outweigli slavisli parfy allegiance. The interese of fliis communify are largcly agricultural, wit h a franchise 70 per, cent rural, but flic interests of flic fown anud in- dustrial elem.ents are no less important for~ they are interdependent. Hence our rcp- resentative at Ottawa must bc conversant witli and sympafliefie f0 bofli. Thaf is flic waV dcmocracy must function. There have been times in flic psat wvlen the electorate lias feit thaf attention and service lias not been equally accorded as befwcen East and West Durhiam in flic Federal spliere. Thaf, too, is somefhing for tie consideration of any candidaftc seeking public confidence in fhis consfituency. These general observations arc nof without point for if must be rcmcmbcrcd that Dur- liam's member must represeuuf "alI lichepeo- ple allichefime" wifhout fear or favor. Our stand is against "machine polities" and en- tircly for flic intcrcsts of allich people. t Our support will be accorded onu flese broad principles and wvlin flue fime cornes, may flic bcst man win. -V Jobs vs. Jurisdictions Every once in a w'hile somebody coins a phrase fliat compresses iuto a few words cx- acfly whaf evcryone is fhinking or that prompts mosf people f0 flîink in a certain direction. Canadian historv is full of ex- amples. The oflier day in Toront o, Stanley M. Wedd, President of Thue Canadian Bankers' Association, during flic course of lis an- fluai address, made use of a pitliy phrase that seems fo have cscaped flic eye of many ediforial writcrs, althougl iti confaincd more sense and wisdom than many speeches wve have been reading lately. 1Refcrring f0 flic possibility of a Domin- ion-Provincial conference, fo iron ouf con- stitufional difficulties standing in flic way of Canada 's social and economie well-being affer flic' war, Mr. Wedd said licelioped if wouid succeed. -I am confident," Mr. Wedd continucd, "fitaf jurisdictional difficulfies will nôf Ioom too large for I believe fliat ail Cana- dians will realize, wlicn flicperiod of deino- bilization arrives, fliat fo flic men from overseas jobs will be mucli more immcdiately important than jurisdictions." Jobs will bc more important flian legal disputes or fine interpretations of flic con- stitution.. 0f course fliey will. Wlien flic war ends, ftle man returîuing fo civilian life wil have no patience wifli wrangling be- fwecn flic Dominion and Provinces over lis sccuirify a9nd welfare. Uc -;Ill wanf a job of national unify, fax revision, cosf of social services, immigration.i "Thuat wvas îlot îny report' were fhý wors ed by Col. J.'L. Ralsfoîu, in lis Iong delayed stement following lis forced resig. îuafioî from Mackenzie KiCitg's Cabinet. and flic Prime Minister's broadcast f0 flic Cana dian people, concerîing the urgency of scnd. ihug frained coîîscripts overseas as reinforce. mejuts. Ilis public sfafcmenf further statcc that lis resignation was requesfed by the Prime Minister. Moreover, he gocs on fc say that Mr. King 's inference as f0 lis ad. vice concerning "possible shortages ini the nexf few monflis," was "wholly incorrect.' These strong protesfs coming from a maix with a repufafion of faîrncss, courage, higi publicelionesty and loyalfy f0 Canada 's -fighting men, cannof have buf a profound impression on Canadian public opinion. The. former Minister of National Defence, in ai: fairness, wvaifed unfil his former chef had spoken before stating lis position based on what he had learned in his recent visil overseas. Now' that bofli have spoken the public are left with flic decision of which one lias wished fo fel lichewliole frufli in flic matter of giving fullest support fo Can- ada's war effort. To Brifish-Canadians, RaI- sfon's sfafement cannof @be misunderstood. In flic buse of Commons, Raîston lias rcpeafedîy said that if flic nccessity arose lue would back Canada's efforts f0 flic limit by sending conscripts overseas. Hcelias car- ried ouf lis promise. bis promise wvas not repudiafed by Mr. King. Buf if lias now beén repudiafcd by Mr. King asking for lis resignaf ion. Wifhin a maffer of mirnutes lis successor, Gen. MaeNaughtoîu was sworn info office. There eau be no other conclu- sion flian fhat fhis evcnfuality -svas long ago prepared for by Mr. King. Wif h ail these fhings now plainly before us fliere is only one conclusion to be drawn. Canadiauis again must lie asked at flue earliest possible moment f0 re-affirnu fleir position as cx- pressed in a dishonored and "crowning iuu- *dignitv" the Plebiscife. President Bankers Association Forecasts Post War ProsD)erity Jobs for ail able and willing f0 work ivas the keynote for post war stability inï the opinion of S. M. Wedd, President of fthc Canadjan Bankers' Association i ho stress- .d that view ini lus annual address last week. And f0 attain greafesf national wel- fare, hie said, " Export trade is the most vital factor bearing upon the problem of post wvar prosperify and post war jobs for Canadians." This is preciselv the view expuressed ini The Statesman in mýany editorials during the past two years. A sumînary of Mr. Wedd 's address appears in fhis issue and ini fhe gen- eral interest it should be read with care. We quote some of the higchliglits as follows: "If is obvious that returning to fthe dim- ensions of 1939 is unthinkable, nor should we accept experimental ideology which would sweep away al fhings inherenfly sound. The democraf je world cannot sud- denly scrap the system of free initiative and embrace a Utopia introduced over niglit. The recently revised Bank Acf provides re- newed opportunity f0 serve Canadians, and ancillary legisiation permits support in the fields of small personal loans and intermedi- ate credit to farmers. " Mr. Wedd pledged fullest co-operation of Chartered Banks within an enlarged, infegrated financial sys- tem to assure no sound credit need is left unserved. With the Exports Credits Insurance Act designed to facilitate world trade and crea- f ion of an Industrial Development Bank to stimulate business and indusfry ini the do- mestie field, the Chartered Banks are pledg- ed f0 play an enlighfened and liberal part in flie overali picture for post wvar pros- perity. Small personal loans and credifs f0 farmers are matters of great importance in the wvhole scheme. These are matters that inspire confidence among flie mass of the population and confidence is, after ail, fthc greaf, vital requisife for national sfabilify. The address of President Wedd is one thaf cannof but inspire ftle greatesf of confidence among Canadians. _V__ There'll Corne A Tirne Mackenzie King. "The resuit of flhe pleb- iscite is a national expression or view on a national problemi." "Nof necessarily con - scription but conscription if nccessary.""'Toi give effecf f0 the national will, if I deem if advisable, I shaîl seek a vote of confidence from Parliament on ftic issue." Mr. Raîston: "If we cannot maintain the army overseas witli volunteers and if if is necessary fo send NRMA, (Zombies) as rein- forcements, f lure cau be no alternative for me but f0 recommeîîd action under fhe Acf (Bill 80) and I shahl do so." Manfully lie ad- vised, wvas repudiafed, and lie resigned. Comment: Bofh have spoken as above. The facts speak for tliems*elves. Voters eau fake their choice. Pollowing Ralston's resignafion, Mr. King said: "Me have in mind the importance of mainfaining fthe confidence of the mothers, wives, relatives, thaf every step is taken f0 support them." \Vit h this so freely spoken The Sfafesman on behlaf of ifs staff fighting overseas, and the mothers, wives, relatives of this com- munity wit h sons wounded, kiiled, missing, can only say: "Read carefully and with closest attention the words of Canada's Prime Minister and decide whaf should and must be done about ut when the time comes:' _V Democracv Again Hailed As A Living and Vital Force For Canadiazus there is one great lesson to be obscrved in flue recent presidenfial -lection in flic U.S.A.

The oflier is that lie will stop faxes on co-opera- tives and other corporations. There are in- deed sfartling suggesftions. There will be mucli confroversy over how lie will distribute money f0 the farmers, al- thougli there will .be very liffle argument fliat this should flot be done. No politician will stand up and say fliat Mr. Bracken is wrong and the farmner should not have lis fair share of fhe national income. There is also nof likely fo lbe any discus- sion on the other suggestion. Af first *if sounds as thougli no taxes would be a big assistance for big, business. If would leav.e the corporations with more money f0 use f0 encourage fhem f0 go ahead expanding flueir affairs. If is quite clear that if ivould not mean less taxes on wealtliy people. If miglit mean a great deal more. As Mr. Bracken points ouf, jrofits iin the hands of corporations ane now faxed ail at thie samne rate. Distribufed to shareholders, they are faxed atcordinc, f0 the shareholders uncome. To th~e extent f0 which profits are distri- buted, thîs plan would mean hrgher taxa- tion from thie large shareholders and lesser taxes from ftle smaller îivesfers. Obviously, if would be necessary f0 fax those profits which are not distribufed. Witli this done, the problemn would îuot be liow to replace flic $300 million which cor- porationîs do nof f urn in. We should flot be faxing dîstributed profits while in the hands of the corporations, but we should be taxiiiog tlem while tlicy 'ere in flic pockefs Of the men w'ho received fhem. These are sfartling suggestionus. If xvould be a good thing f0 discuss them without aîîy partisan bias for or aga inst Mr. Bracken and lis party. v ProD)er Recreation Is Vital To lIealth The late Chaunccy Depew, famous Ameni- can Senator as wehl known for lis wit as for lis skill in debate, once said fliat lie took absobutely no exencise except fo acf as-palI bearer for lis fricnds wlio did. And f lere's a good deal of commoiu sense bchiîd flic flippancy of that remark. Your licant is a loyal and fireless ongan, but fhere comes a fime when if may objeet f0 overwoirk.
