SPAGE '£wu ED"ITORIALS Chamber Selects New Secreta ry-Ma nager After many months loi< deliberation and investigation, Bowmanville's Chamber o! Commerce this week announces the apointment o! Kenneth N. Morris as its Srretary-Manager. The. selection lias taken mucli longer than ariginally contemplated because of the higli qualitY of. applicants- for this position. The façtlthat Mr. Morris, a form- er Bowmanville. -resident, was picked indicates that.ÇAis ,qualifications- are excellent. Hee-haàý.-had considerabie experience ini work* which is reiated ta that which he-wil 'ý carrying on here in promoting the best interests of Bow- manvilie and its citizens. While, admitting that there is a great deai o! groundwork sil ta be done before spectacular resuits may be expected, we have every con- fidence that Mr. Morris will make a great contribution ta this town. He is highiy resýpected, by those who w'ere his conlpanions and acquaintances during his eariy year5 in Bowmanviiie, as, indeed is his wife. the former Milda Moore who., undoubtedly - will be of great- assistance ta him in his new position. Undoubtediy, the citizens of thîs com- rnunity wiil extend a help.ful and co- operative weicome ta. Mr. and Mrs. Morris when they arrive soon tal take over this important task. We wish thern every success. We have always held the United Em- #ire Loyalists in high regard, but after a visit ta the.U.E. Loyalist burial ground at Adoiphustown last week our esteem for the descendants o! these courageous Pioneer Canadians was somewhat shatter- ed. To say the least, the shocking sight of this historic burial ground was a disap- pointing and déplorable spectacle. .These grouiids are situated on a sligh% elevition o! farm land which tapers south ta the beautiful Bay of Quinte, South of 'Napanee. To reach this hallowed spot you drive through farm property, over an unbeaten path or road. Our pilgrimnage was aiso hindered by several barbed wire fences. Abandoning our auto. we wended aur wray through fields of high grass ta the 20-foot marble monument several -hundred yards awav. We have seen' manv deserted and unkempt cemeteries. but this historic one, without exception, Nvas the most fýirlorn and wretched specimen we havo', seen. The large monumént stands therz neglect- ed throu-gh the years and reidy ta toppie over.

In the author's (Virginia Taylor Kiose) home-there are six children rang- ing from college age ta a five-year-old and, as she writes: "After 18 years of mix- ing formulas, changing diapers, watdhing class plays. putting on snow suits, and kooking for the other mitteri, I've had il."

Says the Commission: "Leave ta private initiative ail the func- tions that citizený can perform privalely; use the level o! gavernment closest ta the cammunity for ail public functions it can bandie; utilize co-operative inter-gavemn- mental arrangements wbere appropriate ta attain economicai performançe and pop- ular approval; reserve national action for residuai participation wvhere state and local gox'emnments are not fulvy adequate, and for tle continuing responsibilities that How much of the present prosperity of Cati da and the United States is being finance d on the instailment plan?

Within the enclosure, which wvas originally.. surrounded by an attractive iran fence, now corroded with rust and faiiing ta pieces. the seî'eral family tomb- stones have fallen over and are settling in the ground, cavered over with grass, weeds, mass and dirt, makingý it impossible, ta read some of the inscriptions. More could be written about this 'forgotten and consecmated shrine, but we hope enough has been said ta stir up action before it is taa late by members of the U.E. Loyaiist Society. M'hile making a mental survey of the landscape surrounding the burial ground, the thought came ta us that il is admirably located whereby it could be converted int a National Park, wîth easy access for a road from the main highwav and pienly of suitable level'park land .along the Bay of Quinte.

As a generai proposition* this, statement of principles is one with which none but the most dedicated o! centralisîs or social- isîs can quarrel.

Nowadays varied and ingeniaus in- ducements are of!ered ta encourage people ta go int debt. Taxation and aller factors, meanwhiie, tend ta provide a disincentive jfor saving. That prosperity on the instalîment plan is infiahionary cannot seriously be questioned. Another unwelcome feature o! laday's credit trend is that, witb the advent o! government guarantees, the quality o! credit, by which is meant the likelihood o! repayment, tends ta deciine, while the quantity o! famiiy debt tends steadily ta nrease. Il is underslandable, therefore, that economists and allers who bave studied the debt problem should have become increasingly concerned to prevent furtler extension or government's raie as pawn- broker.
