THIJRSDAY, NOV. 24th, !90U T~E f~A?.7AflTA~E ~'rA 'rV<~iA ¶~ 9f t~'Iff A M~??? Il' ~.ttPt' A EDITOKIAL COMMENT It iust Doesn't Seem Right For many years, The Canadian Statesman has always contained an editorial at this time of year stressing the great responsibility citizenis have 'n attending municipal nomination meet- ings and allowing their names to stand for clvic electian. This year there is something miss- Ing for the first time. Bowmanville wiIl have no nomination meeting, no election - nothing.. This is the off year because the two year term started last January. Somehow, it just doesn't seem natural or right, but ye electorate passed it and until they decide to change the system, we are stuck with it. How- ever, in ail fairness, we do believe that very few would wish to return to the old annual elections. The present niethad gives municipal officers an excellent apportunity of carrying through their programs without being rushed. It enables them to plan more leisurely and extensively, knowing that they have two years ta. show resuits for their actions. But, such is not the case in the sur- rounding areas. Most of them will hold Recent figures released by the federal labor department indicate that Canada's farm labor force is continuing to decline, but in Durham there is no evidence of any slackening farm activ- ity or interest. To us, Junior Farmers' Award Night, last Friday at Orono, speaks for itself in this regard. When a couple of hundred youngsters show such an enthusiasm for 4-H Club compe- titions of many kinds, the future of farming in this area should be bright. Much of the credit for this enthus- iasm by young farmers must go ta the high caliber of Provincial Agricultural Representatives who have given the lead here in this work for many years. Many of the young men and women who through the efforts of the late Ed. Surnmers became convinced that there was an excellent future in farming, have remained on the farms and become the leaders who are encaurag- ing, coaching and guiding the new crop of future farmers. Fortunately, Mr. Summers was iollowed by another outstanding man, This might very well be termed Royal Commission Year, with so many of our problenis under study by experts that the cost cf preparing briefs must be staggering. Also, for the average layman, including us weekly editors, the rn'aterial being accumulated on these subjects is so extensive that there is very little hope of f inding time ta give them the study they deserve. 0f particular interest are the studies being made an the auto indus- try and, more recently, the one now at Its peak concerning the periodicai f ield. While bath are different in many re- spects, they also are similar ta the de- gree that neither probe would have been necessary had some section ai this economy nat been hurt by imports frani oether countries. I the periodical or magazine f ield, at least two major US. publications have made extensive invasions in the past few years by producing gimmîck, so-called Canadian editions. A bit ai Canadian news has been added ta the regular American edition, enabling these magazines ta build their sub- seriptian lists in this country and, more important, enabling them ta sell adver- tising in large quantities ta Canadian finms. Fearing that other U.S. mag- azines couN follow-this comparatively "'cheap" example and eventually take ever the Canadian periodical field ai- niost completeiy, the large Canadian publishers have appealed to the govern- nment for heip. It wiil be recalled that the former Liberal gavernment met the ehailenge by imposing a special tax on these invaders, but this was removed by the present administration. We in the weekiy newspaper field are in sincere sympathy with our magazine publishing colleagues in Cana- da. They are doing an excellent job of promoting our Canadian way of life and keeping alive the history and tra- ditions of this country. Certainl'y, their success and veritable existence could be threatened by an extension ai the practice which allows Canada ta be flooded with a spili-over of corn- paratively low-cost publications from the United States or any other Country. If the situation were reversed, we have ino doubt that the United States authori- ties wauid move qulckly and ruthlessly Oliver A. Dalrymple, a hard-working, knowledgeable representative, who in a short time has won the confidence of the young people with the resuit that at present there must be even more 4-H groups at work than formerly. Sa long as we have this type of leadership, plus the willing sacrifice o: time and effort by those who in ear1ier years were the 4-H Club members, we have no hesitation in farecasting that this is onie county which will continue ta hold its head high, proud of its farm- ing reputation. In this cannection, Durham County fariners certainly excelled themselves inl sa many competitians at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair this year thal aur reputation as a top agricultural area must be even more widespread than ever. Our sincere congratulations tc every man and womnan, adult and ado. lescent, who has the courage ta believe there will always be a worthwhile future for the good farmer who enjoys his work and knaws what he is doing. ta stop il and proteet their own. At the moment, the U.S. post office even grants special rates ta these publica- tions, encouraging theni ta extend their influence outside the confines ai the U.S. The cammisgioners have no easy task in determining wbat action bhey should recommend, but being weli- acquainteti with at least two ai them, we have every confidence that they will came Up with a workable solution. The magazine publishers, however, are nat the only anes who are suffering from U.S. invasion of one kind or an- other. Every rebailer must have sbud- dered last week when he saw the huge advertisements announcing the opening ai U.S. owned discount bouses in Canada. These wili add yet anather difficulty ta their problems of trying ta make ends meel. We, in bhe weckiy newspaper field, aiso have problems connected with a diminishing volume ai national advertising. This opposition is flot necessarily af U.S. origin, but there is a tic in because a portion of aur form- er revenue must now be gaing ta sanie of the Canadian editiohs ai U.S. publica- tions. Il is also being diverted int the multi-color magazine sections of the weekend daily papers, which in sanie cases are printed in bbe United States, as well as into Canadian magazines. Possibly our.biggest competitor for tbe langer advertiser accaunts is television which is so expensive even tbough sub- sidized by.us taxpayers that adverlisers feel they cannot afford la use this medium and the weeklics boa. Our printing departments aiso have suifer- ed because ai the inroads ai duplicating machines which are now almosl stand- ard equipment in schois, churchies and factories. Sa, while we are sympathetic la the Canadian magazine publishers who also have taken sanie ai aur former business, we hope bbc ioderai gavern- nment will think very seriousiy before il again imposes a tax an advertisiag content. This is anc fieldi which s0 lai' bas escaped bbc cagle oye af the tax collector and we in the town weekly field vicw with alanm what appears la be the thin edge of a wcdge being aim- ed in that direction, Surely, there nmust ho a better way ta avercome the diii i- culty. ,%tatetmn Durham nCounty 3 Great Family journal Estcibilh.d 106 yecars urgo in 1854 Aise Incorporcuting The Bawmnviîî.

From information which we have received, there should be some warm, possibly heated discus- sions at some of them, if they live up to the advance notices. In others, un- fortunately, only a few ratepayers will turn up at the meetings to hear the reports from the politicians and fewer still will ask any questions of those seeking election. In these days when the business of local governmhent is becoming more and more complicated; when zoning by- laws, building codes and ail the rest tend ta confuse the council and the electorate, it is most important that good men and women are eiected to run our coxumunities' affairs. We urge each and every one of you to attend your local nomination meet- ing so that you wil have a better idea of what is happening in your area. Your councillors who have worked hard ail year will be happy to see you and will relish any questions you may have. Don't let them down.
