PAGE TWO THE CANADIAN STATESMAN. BOWMANVTLLE, ONTARIO THURSDAY. JAN. 26th, 1956 EDITORIALS Suffering From Political Indigestion Speaking from experience and also from our observation we agree with John Atkins, that modern philosopher of The Rural Scene, when he says most of us are over-fed and over-weight. Our doctors admonish us to watch our calories but our governments have given aur economic rights to privileged producers, who con- front us with the alternative of eating our way through mountains of food surpluses, or of ransoming our stornachs and o4r health by surrending taxes for subsidies and paying part of our pensions through inflation to maintain dornestic prices for foods that aur compulsory marketeers refuse ta sell at prices that potential Brit- ish and other outside custamers are able and willing ta pay. (That long cumber- some sentence is a mouthful of sage comn- ment in itself!) While our doctors are warning us ta Canada's Worst Killer Added ta the already sevemal com- mendable medical reseamch projects at top level o! bath government and the medical profession is the Ontario Heart Foundatian ta combat the world's wamst killer-heart disease. It is not the petite, delicate, allergy- type individual that accounts for the large percerutage o! victi.ms amound midlife o! 45 years o! the killer, but rather the high pressure business executive who is wont ta boast of his youthful sports pmawess. That means twa things-medical came bas summarily failed ta restare woth- while function and heart trouble was the cansequence o! stress, mental rather than physical. Drugs will ever be the medical pro- fession's sheet anchor for ememgency and subsidiary help generally, but ta expect drugs ta restare function ta a continuously operating argan like the heart, is some- thing else. diet discreely, the marketeers of food surpluses are beguiling us to eat more apples, butter, red meat, wvhite meat, wvheat and other cereals, cheese, and a hundred and one prepared products made f rom them. It is obviaus that we might destroy aur health by stuffing ourselves with deliciaus foods in an altruistic attempt ta sustain stability in a political prie system that threatens the solvency of millions of producers and consumers, par- ticularly that of self-providers with fixed incomes. The Siimple remedy for deleteriaus food flatulence is a bitter one that aur politicians and their marketeers refuse to swallow because it involves swallowing themselves and the ensuing political indigestion. It is orderly liquidation by sale in the free world market. - Heart Disease There are only two natural primary sources of eflergy int' the world, viz. - electricity and sunlight, which a kînd Providence has provided in inexhaustible ýuantity. Fatigue is electrical energy exhaustion and "sleep knits up the ravelled sîcave o! care." The use o! electrie treatment in rncdi- cine is as yet comparatively new. The sum total of such treatment, the case being gatten in reasonable time an.d common sense exercised, means restaration of life worth living and nat with anc hand clutch- ing the nitroglycerine capsule vial-as this writem knows from experience. There are plausible reasons for doctors deferring electrical treatment in their practice, but that shauld not enter into the deliberations of the Heart Foundation. Let's have widening research. Bath drugs and electro-therapy have their place and we necd bath. Workmen's compensation is a term describing a multitude o! activities instigat- ed by a community and implemen ted by rnany skilled members o! that cammunity in an effort ta restare its industrially- injured workmen ta a iseful life. Prior ta 1915, variaus systems func- tioned thmougbout the world. Most o! them had one tbing in common. They attempted by litigation toa a!!ix the blame and financial responsibility for the accident on the employer, his womkman, or somne third paty. These systems proved unsatis!actory for twa chief reasons. They did not con- tain any provision for the rehabilitiation of the disabled workman ta a useful life in his community. Regardless o! whethem the decision banded down by the courts was in favour o! the warkman or bis employer, it practically pecluded the posslbility of an amicable employer- employee relationship ever being re-estab- lished. In 1915, recommendations made by Sir William Ralph Meredith in his Royal Readers may recali that years aga Harold Gully, native son o! Bowmanville and for many years Public Relations Director o! Silverwoods Dainies, wmote a feature article each week on his philosophy of life under the heading "Scribe G." He bas sent the editar the following which he terms "Philosopby Regamding the Possibility o! Profit": I bave no illusions that profits are concealed in costs. I amn in business for profit ... nat for fun ... for my health -... for f ame ... for the good o! humanity. I like custamer's compliments -... the smile on the landlord's f ace . . . an em- ployee ta say that he likes working for me. WhIile not ane Canaçijan in a hundred knows what money is or how it works, the ninety-nine have learned in the last decade that maney is not something ta be tamper- üd with lightly, says Bruce Hutchison in The Financial Post. They have learned the liard way by losing half their savings during the war period. That wvas a large lass (though a small price for victory) but w~as partially balanced by a remarkable Main in public knowledge, or at lea6st in public instinct about money. Until the war ended and the flimsy dams of wartime price contrai. broke, the Commission report on workmcn's com- pensation became the basis for the Womk- men's Compensation Act o! Ontario whichi came into farce on January I st that year. Sir William's recommendations were conspicuous for their complete disregard o! any attempt ta attach the blame for accidents arising out o! and in the course o! employment on any individual. He recognized the incvitability of industrial accidents and contended that ail costs involved in restoring the dîsabled work- man ta a usef ul life in his community should be evenly distributed amang the members o! the community. Ontario then adopted legisiation that embraced this new conception o! work- men 's compensation. Sa successful was the Ontario system £rom the outset that all provinces have since passed almost identical compensation legisIption. As well, delegates from caun- tries throughout the world have been sent' ta study the system that has gained world renown. But I don't want these things ta side-track me. I amrnont working for the landlord, the fammers, the suppliers of this, that, and the other . . . or the employees. I arn working for Harold Lowheel Gully of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The landlord, the farmers, the suppliers and the employees get theirs before I get mine. And unless there is something left over for mie, it won't matter very much, because 1 will be ruthlessly retired, along with the idealists and humanitarians who are not first of ail business men. . . . whenever 1 get feeling foolish, I hope the possibility of profit will impress itself upon me. This plan is at lcast honest... is it not? public tlîought o! inflation as sometlîing that happened in remote places like Ger- many and could neyer happen here. And until it did happen here on a considerable scale, any monetary lunatie could gather audiences anîd electoral votes by damning the wicked money power and advocating prosperity by fountain pen. Talking in Billions J. Harvey Ferry, director o! the Canadian Tax Foundation, estimates that the total tax bill in Canada last year was betwvccn W/2 and $7 billion. O! this flic Federal Governîment took $4½ ,ta $5 billion and $2 billion wvent ta the provinces and municipalities. At a $7 billion rate, the average Canadian was paying in taxes about $470 per ycar. In other words the average wage- earncr was p.aying out well over $1,500 per year or an amount equal ta his or ber "take home" pay. WVho was it suggested that we were nat over-govcrned? Or are aur legislators satisfied that a 50-50 split is fair - haif for the governiment and hal! for the taxpayer? Observations and Opinions 1-lew-ho travels ov-er 60 miles an hour is not driving his car-he's aiming it. Some inquisitive members o! Simcop County Council are asking for a detailed statement of how the Children's Aid Society of that caunty spent close ta $200,000 last year, as they are asking for an additional $60,000 for 1956. The C.A.S. is a great humanitarian organization, but those figures seem a bit inflated. Wonder what it costs ta opex-ate the Socictvy in aur UJnited Countieb. 25 YEARS AGO (1931) It was reported again thât the Provincial Government was seriously considering building a newv bridge ta replace the bazardous anc over the C.P.R. at the west o! town. Plans for building a greenhouse at the Boys' Training School wvere also said ta be complete. Eight year aid Wilmer B. R. Griffin, son o! Mr. and Mî's. Wm. Griffin, Enniskillcn, died of injuries received in a sîcigli riding accident. Mr. and Mrs. Hcnry Mount- joy, Blackstock,' celebrated their 5th wcdding anniversary with their entire family pres- cnt.

Tamnburlainie is the first big success Canada lias lîad oin Broadway and it looks as though its future now is assur- red. Many people have been asking lateiy why wc in Can- ada sbould cane whether or flot aur productions are acclaim,,d on Broadway. Well I think it is a twofold reasan. First there is the antistie side of the question and fon so many yeans we have given all the hanouns, and de- scnvedly so, ta aur neighbours ta the sauth. Secondly there is the question o! finances and with a guarantced twelve wcek run Tambunlaine should make more than cnough for expenses. The fabulous new permanent building which is ta be enected in Stratfond ta replace the tent is going ta be a costiy venture but the festival committee is not sitting back wvaiting for !unds ta came iii tlîy are lworking ta raise it themseives. I hope that Tambunlaine is only the finst o! many sucb success- ful ventures. Nothing can bc more dis- conccrting than arrlving alone in a new town in the dark of -night. For th.at rea- son 1 always iikcd the sto- ry of the man who did just tlîat, but to add to bis mis- ery he had been ridlng a bicycle and dismounted at a sign hôlding bis last match tlghtly in bis hand. Carefully he climbed the signPost, struek the match and to his horror read the message th e re on - ie paint. At onc point durnîg tue ]azt wan tbe invasion o! Bitain by Genmany seemed imminent -- just bow imminent we learnîedl a!tenwards. With great fore- sight the government issued instructions that all signposts were ta be taken down, cars and buses no longer carnied the names a! their destination on the fronit, the names were ail remnoved !rom the stations. In fact anyonc travelling in Bnitain ini those yeans neyer quite kncNv wiîerc they wvere.1 It pnobab]y ail saunded quite plausible in tbcory.

The Statesman feit that Dur- ham County had been "mulc4t- ed" in the tax share o! $100,000 expenditure on the ncw Coun- ty Home for the Aged and gaal. There were 76 interments in Bowmanville Cemetery in 1906. The ripe aid age o! many of this number was commented an. Some o! those who passed on, o! vaniaus ages, were Mary Bcith, Wm. Crago, Thos. HQar, Helen Heal, Gea. A. Burk, An- tbony Mitchell, J. B. Fairbairui, Mary Dunsford, Harold Tap- son, Grace Hoar. An afternoon tea givcîî by Mr. A.

Misses Wilkinson and Gage, Toronto, and Misses Vanstoneé and Emory, Town. The terrible eartlhquake l Kingston, Jarnaica, ini whici thousands o! lives were lost caused some anxiety here as many bad relatives there. Dr. W. E.

Wben the translata! finished, he was in tears, andi the rest of the graup seemed deepiy moved. You can't real- ize how unusual that was," he went on. "'A Man callcd Pe- ter' was almost the first thing that rcally touched them. Iii the days bat foliowed tbe Rus- 7sians didn't seem ta be able ta get the movie off their mînds. They kept bringing it up at odd moments. Whcn we gat te iPhoenix on aur way back tacross tue country, one ai tbern said anc day-apropos of nothing-'I don't think that Catherine Marshall exists'." "I said, 'Yes, she cxists. 1 know ber. Would you like ta meet ber, if it could be arrang- cd?' "When the visitîng journaiist said he would, 1 adçlcd, 'I go ta a littie cburcb in Washington that believes that the worid's problenîs can be solvcd by love. If I cauid dear it with the State Department and ar- range it witb Mrs. Marshall, would you iike ta meet ber there and attend a typical Amn- enican church service!'" My fniend xvent on ta say that he bad clearcd this with the State Department. "Would you be wiiling ta meet us aut the Church of The Saviaur on Massachusetts Avenue tamor- row?" he askced. Wlîen I agreed, he addcd h-astiiy, "o! course, they mnay not show up. Tbey mnay get co]d feet at the iast minute. After ail this isn't on their itinerary, and tbey don't have ta appe'ar." Oit the followinct Sunday murning, however, five of tiiý Feven clid appear. Before -the service. as I was introduccd to thtrn, there was much bowling and scraping. One interpreter had been sent with themi. In addition thene vas anc o! tMl seven who spoke Engiish - Bonis Izakov o! International Life. Izakov asked, "*Was the ma- vie made right after the book?"

However, before they left thcy asked in great detail about my son and added-With ges- -tures-"Wiil you kiss your sons afor us?"
