Last year alonU. more tian 140,000 people camU to Household for money help, and received it quickly and Peconomically. See the sample costs mnade possible by Household's reduced rates. For example, a $100 loan repaid in 6 monthly instalments costs only $5.30; a $300 six- payment loan only $15.96. When you make your loan at Household, you choose the pay- ment plan that fits your budget best. Payments shown include principal and charges-no fines, discounts, extras of any kind.

'You need no help from outsiders to get your money at Ho"shold - no guarantors, no bankable security. If you can make the monthly payments shown, you can ask for any amount you need. And usually, get your cash the sarne day you apply. Remember, you can get your loan for less at Household than at any other Small Loans Company in your community.

Th-ý latter sub- sidy of two cents per quart has meant that consumers have been getting their milk two cents be- low the legal price set by the pro- vincial milk boards. The government has now taken three new steps: It has continued the producer subsidy at 55 cents per cwt., the winter rate, instead of dropping it to 35 cents per cwt. for the sum- mer months, which was the prac- tice heretofore. In the second place, the con- sumner subsidy is cancelled as o June lst,' 1946, which will mean an increase of two cents per quart in the price of milk to consum- ers. In the third place, there wvill no longer be a federal ceiling over milk, and price control as be- tween producers and consumers will revert to the provincial milk boards. Their "legal price" will no longer be reducible by a fed- eral subsidy to consumers as of late years. .The chairman of the Milk Con- trol Board of Ontario says: ~'It will mean that the price to consumers in Toronto will revert to 13c per quart which actually has been the legal price ail along." From this is follows, due to the removal of the consumer subsidy, that there will be an upward change of 2c per quart througout the province. Prime Mlinister. King As Seéen Dy Veteran Press Gallery Reporter 1. There's a lot been said and writ- ten about Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King but one of the best "close-ups" that has come to our attention appeared recent- ly in the Montreal Gazette. It was written by their veteran press representative, Fred C. Mears, who hias been in the House of Commons press gallery for 20 years. During that score of years Mr. Mears should have a fairly accurate size-up of Mr. King from ail angles. Here are his observa- tions: Prime Minister Mackenzie King lef t Monday to join the conference of Commonwealth Prime Minis- ters in London on defence and other vital questions, and a month from now, on June 10, his party supporters are expected to fitting- ly mark his twentieth year as Prime Minister. Moreover, it will soon be 50 years since he did his first important job here, the es- tablishment of the Department of Labor. A bundle of personal and pol- itical contradictions, possessed of an astonishing faculty of some- times deluding himself, sometimes eiuding others, Mackenzie King is definitely, indubitably a national fact. He just cannot be erased by the wishfui thinking of opponents or by the earnest desires of somte Liberals who think a new leader should be found soon. But what makes the King dlock tick? How did he manage to win the party leadership in 1919? How did he escape the Valley of Hu- miliation in the odorous Beauhar- nois episode? -How did he man- age to hang on'to power after the 1925 election when at least haîf his Cabinet and Mr. King himseif were rejected at the poils? How did he succeed in climbing back to power in 1926 when the constitu- tional issue almost bewildered the electors? And, lastly, how did he extricate himself fromn the con- scription bog? Few have ever attempted to an- swer all these questions, one good reason being that all the answers are hard to find, and the more one examines his personality and his public record the more difficult il is to discover the dlue to his suc- cess. Like Franklin Delano Roo- sevelt he has neyer had a good press, lneyer had more than twc or three daily papers that consis- tently supported himn and his pol. icies, and, unlike the late Presi- dent, Mr. King has neyer had a personal following that really 1coùnted on election day. Incidentally, it is worth recal ing that after one of the latter iRoosevelt presidential campaigns, in which even 'The New York Times deserted his colors and in which Republicans felt they hada good chance of finally beating him, the ballot showed him witl an xncrased majority. Pointec comment came the next day iri gWashington when some one said é"Everybody seems to be againsi Roosevelt but the people." Profits by Division But there is another side to il 1here. The political situation i. 1essentially different in Canadý with a multiplicity of parties, an< Iit is the confusion arising from thi. 1very multiplicity that has worke< to the advantage of Mackenzi( King. His ardent backers wi]' parties' platforms, paint them ov- er with a Liberal 'hue, and chris- ten them his own. And here is presented one of the notable contradictions in Mac- kenzie King. No one in Canada has spoken so much about nation- al unity, no one has seemed to stjrive s0 manfully for its preser- vation and nobody in the nation's public life owes so much for his continuance in that arena as does Mackenzie King, to the existence of disunity, out in the country, in Parliament and, sometimes in the Cabinet. Ruling by dividing has been a political science in which Mr. King more than once has shown himself to be a master. Another notable fact in Mr. King's career is that while on most occasions he is a tedious speaker in the House, he does shine out- side Parliament on public and semi-public occasions. It has been said that when in Parliament he seldomn talks to the House, cares little what it thinks of his utter- ances, but cares a great deal what the electors think of them. Some- one has aptly said: "Too often Mackenzie Kifig has- lost argu- ments in the House when pitted against eminent parliamentarians, such as Meighen and Bennett, but if he lost the arguments he won the votes." In one field, though, he has won a high place by his own exertions and by the qualities that fit one for it. Mackenzie King is an out- standing internationalist, has in- tex mittently for nearly 30 years spoken influential words in world affairs. An eminent London writ- er not 50 long ago said that Can- adians made a big mistake when they underestimated Mr. King's influence outside his own coun- try. At Stiekier for Protocol Ata press conference, now ai- most an extinct function as far as Mr. King is concerned, he shines tbut even there he sometimes be- Strays what looks like downright -diffidence. This is, however, more 1often than not a rigid adherence to -protocol, a meticulous respect for the demands resting upon himself as Prime Minister. He has a sense of humor, likes good stories and likes to tell them, but Yhe doesn't like to have anyone laugh at the office of Prime Min- -ister. At his town and his coun- rtry houses he is a genial and gen- erous host, and many people in kthis country, quite regardless of r' party persuasion, have had reason aat different times aimost to mar- 9 vel at his little personal remem- h brances. d What puzzles many, even some nwho profess to be on the inside, is 1why during this session he took ;the trouble to have the House en- act legislation that would enable hima to name a Secretaryof State It for External Affairs other than ýs himself, and then fail to follow a through. It may have been his d1 way of telling his party that he ýs intends to etay in the East Block~ d for a considerable time; that ai ,e least plenty of time will be aff ord- I1 ed Cabinet aspirants to show if ' they are fit to take on the load of aExternal Affairs. That he will remain Prime Min- îLter and Leader of the House anc President of the Council also fora considerable time is now assumed. Some Liberals say he will be at the top so long as he is physically capable of doing a job, that hi may even lead his party in the next general election in spite of his own hints that he would quit before that time. He continues to be a puzzle, and, even though it looks like a trick of over-simpli- fication, that may be the answer 1to a lot of questions about him.

Indeed the Discoverer and Founder of this Sci- ence, Mary Baker Eddy, writes (Rudimental Divine Science, p. 2)~: "Healing physical disease is the smallest part of Christian Science.

The weekly average for March totalled 69,289 cars as com- pared with 65,529 in the preced- ing month, and it was also higher than the average of 66,846 in March a year ago. Loadings in the first quarter of this year were the highest for that period in any year except 1944. Export trade in the flrst quar- ter of this year was higher than in any first quarter for peacetime years, but it was down by a con- siderable margin from the pre- ceding three years' levels which counted heavily on war shipping. Exports in March amounted to $178,377,000 as compared with $153,143,000 in February and $301,- 175,000 a year ago.

Consequently, the seasonally adjusted index of gen- eral business activity in Canada, as compiled by the Alexander Hamilton Institute on the basis of 1923-1926 as 100, showed a de- dline from 189.0 in February to 170.8 in March.
