JAMES. Editor w Prof essor Turns Turile Renounces C..F. Pretensions In another column ln this week's issue of The Statesman will be found an article titled, "Socialist Professor Turns Turtie," which we commend particularly ta readers who have often been critical of this paper for is stand against the general program of the C.C.F. in this coun- try. The article is conttibuted by a highly in- lormed observer of the political scene in Can- ada, a man barri and educated in this district, who occupies a position of Importance as a mem- ber of an arganization contributing greatiy to the development of public opinion on current questions of the- day. Recently returned from an extended trip through eastern Canada, we 'wrote that our ob- servations were that 'public reaction was set- ting in against the propaganda carried on by the C.C.F. We had littie hope of seeing in print .o soon atter our returri such an outright co n- demnation of C.C.F. pretensions as that contain- ed in the observations cf Professor Underhili, formerly an ardent member cf the C.C.F. or- ganizatian. It is his article in The Canadian Forum which aur contributor reviews as a mat- ter of public information. It wiil be seen that the stand now taken by one of thé most earnest former supporters of the C.C.F. creed is simpiy one that the C.C.F. has tried ta do too many things ta too many people in hastening to capture canverts to their cause. There is considerable cause for The Statesman to feel satisfaction that we were on the right track in exposing many shortcomings of the C.C.F. now that we are supported along general lines by Protessor Underhili. We ex- pect the article "Socialist Professor Turris Tur- tie" will be read with very considerable inter- "More and Betier Things For More People I Probably the anc tbing shown aI the Cana- dian National Exhibition that caused thinking people to reflect an the future was the Train of Tomorrow, the product of thé General Mo- tors Corporation. It is the product cf men cf vision interestecl far less in profits than in creat- ing semetbing finer for ahl the people, every- wbere, as lime moves forward. Il was said at the lime thal the Train of Tamorrow was a sa- lute by General Motors ta American raiiroad- ing. In our view it was a salute and a challenge te men who create la look ta an even wider horizon; ta share wilh the wonld a great con- venience and comfert thal ahl may enjay. Powered by a Diesel locomotive, the train prejects ahl the facilities of a modemn home int a mobile unit travelling acroas space with ucar- cely a tremor lu permit an unobslructed view of the beauty and grandeur of nature. It is perfection that will move on ta, greater perfec- tion ini a worid that cari do wîtb more of these qualities. Il is the product of m e n w b o have made their way as adberents et the sys- tem af free enterprise wbich bas given ta, the womld almost ahl the advantages enjoyed in tbe nmoderni world of today. The slogan under which the Train of To- rrrow is presented le the public by General Motors is "More and Better Things for Mare People." The tact is that General Mter, dees flot plan te produce the train but bas simply pioneered in ils creation to permit other manu- facturer, ta, turnilitout. And il was flot basic- ally competitiori Ihat inspired its planning. When we gel rigbt dawn te tbe basis of the whole tbing we arrive straighl back ta cur as- sertion abave that it cames tram the unselfish devotion cf men of vision interested In humian welfare rather than personal profit. If we are ta rcach the millenium il wil l e at the hands ot men of Ibis breed.

Whal Do You Think? "Printed Word" this month points out sharply that a mani cannat be a Canadian and a Communist at the same time. It comments: An editor whose urbanity transcende h'ls perspicacity, recently remarked that Commun- iste in Canada "otten" are "weii-mcaning peo- ple." No member of the Cam.munist Party in Can-; ada can be well-memning as a Canadian citizen. A communist party memnber is sworn te take orders directly or indirectlv tram Moscow. It is his duty as a Communist ta practise decep- tion in order ta destroy aur system eof gavern- ment. If auch a persan is a Canadian betore he is a Communist he is net a Communist. Any per- son who is a Canadian flrst may be %.el-mean ing even if the rest of us think him insane in his ideas. But no Communiet is a Canadian first. W. Romain Compl aceni Àmidst World of Sinisier Facis Two cf the world's greatest weekiy jour- nais, The Saturday Evening Post and Collier's, bath employing a corps of experienced journal- ists widely scattered across the globe, attempt ta keep the democracies alive ta the menace of communism. We read their articles and stili remain quite camplacent ta the sinister tacts they set farth. Recently The Post concluded a series that told how Hungary felI at the hands ot a communist minority. Now W. L. Chenery, publisher of Collier's, writes tram the Pacifie threatre on the Red Shadow over the Pacific. We quote: "You begin ta see a new look in men's eyes, a grimness, a sadness, a resolution in the lines of their faces. Men who fought, saw comrades die, who seemed ta have acbleved a rnagnific- ent victory, are naw disiilusioned and anious The future appears ta demand a new struggle that will calI for aIl the reserves of strengtb, et wisdaom, of courage that they and ail who lave freedom and justice can muster for the next great emergency. You become consciaus of -a menace ini the air." "An impersonal threat larger and more sin- ister than the reckless ambition of any mere miiitary conqueror. For there is a zeal and a passion in the Communist Russian thrust in the Far East, that is ail but religiaus in its nature. That consciousness af impending danger increas- es as you move west, fram isiand to isiand. It saturates every issue, every problem. Nothing can Ibe pianned, undertaken or accomplished without taking into account the possibility of Russiaft aggressîon." Mr. Cbenery goes on ta document bis impressions, with case histories found on bis journey with an officiai mission. He is at ieast anc individuai who is no longer campiacent and. he is doing somnething about it trying ta wake up the people. Canada Packers Siaiement Shows Reducfion in Livesfock While no attempt is made here ta analyze the 20th annual statement of Canada Packers Limited, a few salient facts in the report may be noted in passing. It is hoped later ta carry points cf interest for the information af local farmers. Total tonnage, or weight of product sald, is down 10 percent from the previaus year, but dollar sales are down by oniy 2.4 percent, which reflects an advance in average price af products sold cf approximately 8 percent. Profit before federal tax is down by some $860,000, but the reduction in income and excess profits resulted in net profits increasing approximateiy $200,- 000. Whiie tonnage was down in livestock and ather farm producta and a very firrn priceý held the net profit for the twa groups represent- cd of anc - thirtieth per cent per pound or one- sixth of one percent. The low profit an these is attributed to conditions arising out cf war contrais. The story wiii be deait with in a fu- ture issue. The following statements appear in the re- Port: 'Prices cannot continue ta advance indef- initely. At some point they must level off, and at a later time a substantiai decline seems inevit- able. However the immediatb trend ii; Canada seems upward rather than downward." "This is certainiy the case in respect af hogs. An advance cf 2c per lb. in Wiltshire Sides was announced Sept. 1. The present.British contract would seem ta ensure maintenance of the Sept. 1 level ta date of expiry, Dec., 1948."' '«As to cattie, the fact that steers in United States are seliing at twice the Canadian price would indicate that the immediate price trend might aise be upward." This of course takes no account of the picture when Argentine and Aus- tralasia secure better transportation facilities. Conservaftin It is obvious that natural conditions have been digturbed in the course of the deveiopmnent ot our present social, economic and industrial *systems. We have not always been xise in our handiing of naturai resaurces and the things et Nature. Deforestation, drainage, Pollution, re- (tram Marketing) No. 5 of a Series Advertising bas become one of the greatest stabiiizing forces in industry. Instance after instance could be quoted ta show how advertising bas iifted industry out of the "ýseasonai" ciass by creating an all-around yeariy demand for its products. The refrigerator industry made its appeal originaliy as offering a service for the bot montbs. but demonstrated through advertîsing that it could perform an equaiiy im- portant funiction in the depth ot winter, or during any part af the year. The canneci fruit and veget- able industry which served a purpose when fresh produce was nat pracurable, has by persistent .and consistent ad- vertising taugbt people ta re- ly on a great variety of food products every montb in the year. The greeting card industrv, at one time with sales iargeiy conflned ta the Christmas sea- son, has by advertising and other promotional eff orts, more than quadrupled its out- put by popularizing greeting cards for many other occa- 510115. Some industries will always remaiti seasonai and subject ta peaks and valleys af pro- duction and sales, but wher- ever such "seasons" have be- came established by customn and tradition, rather than by climttic and other causes, ad- vertising bas again and again extended the use of the pro- ducts ta "off" seasons. Apart altogether îram these specific, specialized services which advertising bas render- ed industry and labour, it is directiyr responsibie for the tremendaus growth of busi- ness durIng the past ,genere- tian. It bas created jobs for millions of workers, many cf whamn wouid otherwise bave been unempioyed for long periods. Il bas enlarged plants and built new cnes. Advertising is no panacea for depressions. Whiie it bas net prevented such periods af stagnation in the past, it bas shartened their duration. It bas lessened their sevenities wbile they ]asted. The story af every depression shows bow advertising was earnest ta create, and quick ta take advantage af, the turn in the tide. il lost no time in steer- ing the goad sbip "Business" back into the trade winds.

DISUNITY FOSTERED In bargaining separately with thé provinces, the chief criticism et the apposition has been that the procedure la disrup- tive cf national unity. This has been shown in the negotJations by offering better terms to some provincial premiers than were offered ta others. In order ta, get signatures to separate agree- ments, Ottawa had to revise its, offens several times upward at nithlic expense. CENTRAL BOARD Back in February, John Bracken, leader of'the official opposition, demanded that a central Dominion-Provincial Board be set up ta study the whole proposai before entering upon a pressure policy af any sort and that means be taken ta reconvene a general conference rather than ta risk a schisrn in' national unity. He was supported by many leaders of thought in the Dominion. SENATOR FARRIS Bringing forward Bill 411 in the Senate, the Liberal Senator Farris, while seeking ta defend the goverriment's action, jnevertheless admitted the justice of the proposai ta set up the jkind of board advocated by bath Mr. Bracken and Premier Drew &.Ontario. Senator Farris said the proposai was made in good faith and nobody questions that the plan Was entireiy sensible. But Ottawa stili refuses ta adopt it. OTHER OBJECTIONS Senator Crerar, former Cabinet Minister and close asso- ciate of Prime Minister King, bas aiready been quoted as opposed to features of the Bill and their future implications. Most out- spoken of ail Liberais bas been Premier Macdonald of Nova Scotia, who, however, only recently signed up after gett-ing great]y revised terrns. But Ontario and Quebec stili remain out- side ail the proposed deais. FAIRNESS DEMANDED It wili be seen that most of the teiling arguments used in this series against the actions of the Liberai gavernment at Ottawa, have been made by leading Liberals holding the long view for the weifare of Canada. There bas been general agree- ment with the plea of John Bracken: "Let us settle * li points that concern us as a nation strictly on the basis cf equity and fairness."
