JAMES, Edilar Hon. Tom Kennedy Welcomed As New Premier of Ontario This week the people of Ontario extend a hearty welcome to Hon. T. L. Kennedy as the new Premier of the Province of Ontario. AI- mont without exception the press voices the feel- ing that the welcome embraces all sections of opinion, farmers, labor, industry and even polit- ical opponents. Mr. Kennedy cornes to his new job quite legitimately under the aýcepted prac- tice of leaving the choice ta a party caucus foilowing the resignation of Hon. George A. Drew who was recently chosen national leader of the Progressive Conservaitive Party. Having been returned to power with an impressive majority only four montha ago under Progressive Conser- vative policies, Mr. Kennedy takes over very eminently equipped to give these policies f ull ef f oct. Mr. Kennedy is a real farmer-premier with ahnost 30 years exporience in the Ontario leg- isiature who bas made his Portfolio of Agricul- ture an outstanding department in the provincial econamy. In ail his public appearances he has talked the language of farmers. His leadership was shown this year when Ontario farmers responded to his appeal ta increase ieed grain production by a million bushels. V1 he went ta the country again tomorrow he would be re- turned to power. He alsa holds the regard of labar for ho has stood up for la bor bath as a Minister and frequently as Acting Premier. The apposition has always shown respect for Mr. Kennedy whose rugged krindliness was [' always in evidence in the heat af pcrliamentary debates. At the same time ho can be firmn when fully convinced ho is pursuing the right caune in private or public. matters. His f ear- lesaness was shown in the first world war where lie rase to become a Brigadier in command of Artlllery and was severely wounded in action. His age, past 70 years, fiinds him rugged and exceptionally active but ho has made it per- fectly clear that ho will flot compote for the party leadership at the coming convention. He -IU c.arry on as a matter of duty until relieved %l.."ich in quite what the-,public wish at the radnent. Ontario bas had several farmer premiers, Including E. C. Drury, George S. Henry and Mitch Hepburn. Some may have been more brilliant than Mr. Kennedy but few of ahl the past Ontario premiers possessed the balance and innate qualities that sets the new premier apart in commanding the respect and even af- fection of such a wide section of the population. * The Statesman joins in the universal congratu- lations to Mr. Kennedy on bis elevation to the Premiership. \Canada Packers Ltd. Report Shows How Profits Socialized Canada Packers Lirited, always a target for CCF sacialiste when ranting from public plat- forme. about predatory big business, boldly an- nounices in their 2lst Annual Report flot only ar record breakirig tonnage handled for the year ending March 31, 1948, but record-breaking pro- fits as well. Going further, the report lists a big Inventory reserve made possible in profit realized fromn storage butter. Total tonnage handled was ai billion and a haif pounds. Total net profits, after taxes, depreciation and inventory reserve were $2,182,300. Total sales reached $238,454,- 037. These bare facts will be seized upon by the twin-bed CCF-Communist propagandists crying "unprecedented profits" at the expense of labor, larmers and consumers. Sa let's go a littie further in the report and see how the Canada Packers' sales dollar and the profits are cistri- buted. Out of every dollar paid out, abodIt 82c goes ta farmn producers, labor gets more than 8c and the remainder scales dawn through supplies and taxes to a point where the net profit on tonnage is just 1 7c per pound. Out of this amaîl fraction cornes the year's big net ada. Now it shows juat how profta are social. ized. With the above facti on the record. now leta hear Irom the anvil chorus.

Otawa AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPEF Lead in Power Farming Creates Much Local Interest Last Week The Statesman carried a feature story telling af the unusual undertaking of N. C. Taylor, business manager of Oshawa Mission- ary College, ta break up and eed ta f ah wheat some 1,800 acres of land at Ajax, Ontario County. The project was unugual la that seed- ing began the second week la October. The story turned out ta ho a "scoop" wbich was carried later by dally papers la Toronto and other Ontario chties. It is seldom that a weekly can dig up newm of such importance la advance of the mare greathy staffed and departmentalized dailies. The story is important in several respects. The oxtent, effort, and risk of the undertaking la believed ta be unprecedented la eastorrr Can- ada. It risks thousanda cf dollars on a gamble that October wheat will germinale sufficient ta withstand the winter. But it pilots an inevîtable trend that f arming by power machinery must be the future course ia these aider settled com- munities. And the experimont cames at a lime of a deepening shortage cf world food sup- plies. When interviewed Mr. Taylor suggested that' the ime bad came ta rip out all weed-breeding fonces abaut amaîl fields and make the entire acreage fully productive. This also applies ta tho'isands of acres now lying idle as abandoned smcîll farms. The only way ta get at it intelli- gently la ta employ power machinery indivld- ually, co-operatively. or maybe witb government assistance. Getting a lease from the goverament on 1,800 acres that was allowed ta lie idle for 8 years, marks Mr. Taylor as a man cf vision and antorprise. acquired la large farming aperations la western Canada. Itla sincerehy haped bis experiment with faîl wbeat wihl prove out. Ottawa Kitchen Cabinet Admits Hitler Protegees Confirmed press reports credit a Quebec Libefah Senator with having successfully brought political pressure an the Liberal goveraiment at Ottawa, ta give official sanctuary la Canada to four pro-Nazi Frenchmen who entered this country under false passparts. The Senator told that ho had made more than ana appeal ta the Prime Minister designate Hon. Lduis St. Laurent, following wbich the Mackenzie King Cabinet passed an Order-in-Council pormitting these French traitors ta romain la Canada. Acting Prime Minister Hon. C. D. Howe, later confirmed this dea] which was put across by a secret Cabinet Order. la digging up these secret dealings the press also called attention ta the fact that four Jews, pro-ally and anti-Hither, wha bad entere'd Can- ada under false passparts bad been deported ta Gormany under arders cf the Liberal Cabinet at Ottawa. They had no powerful poitical allies ta pload their case la Canada. Ta make the matter one cf even more stark discrimination. it was disclased that the Jews bad clear records whîle the trenchmea bad been convicted for treason la French courts established under a French government recognized by Canada. Mare will ho beard cf this beo re and during the caming federal election. The bars facts above shouîd ho enough for the public ta reach its own conclusions. Acting Premier Hawe statos that the recommendatian for the harboring of French crimninals camne fram highly placed civil servants.

Today there are 487 Key Clubs in United States and Can- ada, with a total af almost ten thousand members. Kiwanian Wyman went an ta explain the arganization and set- up af a Key Club, as developed ta best take care af the needs at hand. Ho pointed out that a Key, Club was a new venture for the; Oshawa Kiwanians and that the establishing of a Key Club in a school af the type af the Bowman. ville Boys Training School, was a pioneer stop in Kiwanis work, for Kiwanis International and ho stressed that the success af the venture and progress made by the boys in the BT.S. wouhd ho watch- ed with keen interest.

EVERYBODYS lBUiSINESS by tN "You've Gotta Accentuate the Positive" says the popu- lar sang of yesteryear. And it's true! The men and women who have accomplished big things in science, art, busi- ness, education, political and military affairs have ail been positive thinkers. They bad ta be! Otiierwise risks, mis- takes, obstacles and Iaziness would have stopped -them. A barber once told nie he wanted ta open bis own shop. But ho neyer got around ta it. IFear of failure held him back. Negative thinking is like- wise typical of ail the people who are habituai fault-find- ers, indecisive, Iazy, defeatist and ovor-cautious. They act as brakes against the world's progress. Yes, we need more folks wbo accentuate the positive. And they themselves are hap. pier, more successful in their work and enjoy botter rela- tionships with others!
