There proposition posed by Mi. James S. Duncan, president of the Mas- sey Harris Company, before the McMaster University symposium on population growth and immni- gration. It is not difficuit to realize how disasterously differeni aur world situation might have been, how sharply limited its future hopes, if the United States in years pasi had followed aur own dilatory and hesitaiing policy. In that laci is a challenge we cannot disregard. Canada, beginning to realîze the part she must play in world af- fairs, is faced by the fact that we bave only bal the population tbat a decade ago we so confidéntly expected. If we have not achiev- ed what we boped it is because, as Mr. Duncan bas explained, we have lacked a rugged faith in the great potentialities of this land, So we bave halted between the timidly cautiaus course of suppos- ed expediency and tbe more gen- erous attitude that would have made our resources available to a needy world. In thinking mainly of ourselves, we have nat benefited ourselves. In 1939 we might bave welcomed people bringing to us "their capi- tal, their skills, their industries, their artisansbip, their artistic qualifications and sometimes even their export !rade." We argued that we lacked the power ta ab- sorb these people. In aur bind- sigbt we knaw that we could have used every one of the tens af thousancIs that migbt have come ta us ta aur own advantage and the advantage of aur war effort. But, even wben we liberalized our policy, we continued ta argue the natter on a basis of palîtical, sec- tional and religious expediency. Shipping was needed ta repatri- ate aur returning soldiers, jobs and bousîng were needed for tbem. We wanted also ta main- tain the existing religiaus bal- ance. Sa the opportunity slipped by.

Winnipeg, widaw af Samuel Isaac Penwarden, died suddenly at home. Born in Newtanville, Ont., Mrs. Penwarden maved ta Virden at an ear]y age and received her edu- cation there and at Wesley Col- lege, Winnipeg. An active church and welfare worker, she was former president of St. Jahn's Methodist W.M.S., a charter mem- ber af the auxiliary ta the Win- nipeg Bible Institute, and took a great interest in foreign missions, the lepers, China Inland, Latin America and Syrian missions. Survivars include two sans, Reg and Hugh in Winnipeg; twa sis- ters, Mrs. H. Galbraith of Regina and Mrs. Harry Long of Abbey, Sask.; one brother, George Bel- lawes of Saskatoon; and one grandson. The funeral was held June 22 with Rev. George Darby officiat- ing. Burial was in Elmwood ceme- tery. PalIhearers were Rev. R. W. Afleck, H. L. MacKinnon, Harold Robinson, John Swan, Gardon W. Mark and A. Buhr. Lif e Is Not Like That in Canada Life is flot so simple as Mr. Coldwell would like it ta be. He spoke recently at Sault Ste.

He forgot one tbing, the Socialist Governrnont of Sas- katchewan prornised ta paint tho farm bouses of tbe Western plains but, "The best laid scbemes olmc and mien gang aft a-gley." Not much was done.

Why sively, is an active, dynarnic policy not lot thom kcep thoir rnoney af selocting, securing and absorb- and huild their own bornes! Thore ing good, new citizens and doing, will, under socialism, be othr it with liberality. _____things, expenditures graw from more to more then we reach the stage where no one counts the cost and people believe that the state can do everything. All that will be neededI is to ask and re- ceive but when this bappens check your tax bills. But that's not the end of it. This program would bring in- flation. The cast of living would rise, the people would have to pay not only the taxes învolved in getting a house but they would be soaked for a bigher cast of living. The demand for building supplies would shove up the price of commodities. The government would soon be paying $10,000 for a decent bouse, meanwhile taxes would grow higher and higher. With the phantom mush- rooming of ibis vast pragram we would reach the time when even the Socialist would protest against the tax rates. They do soflow, more savagely iban other laiths, but still they dream that the state pays. This pragram gives no hint of how the national income would be increased to carry the extra load. The dlaim is that under a Socialist system there would be stability in prices, that neyer again would we have a depression if only the state owned the lac- tories. -Mr. Coldwell dreams but the economics of reality tell us that the program he proposes would bring about the condition he desires to avoid. There would be violent infla- tion followed by collapse. Taxes would rise while real incarnes f ehl.
