Page Four THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20th, 1945 RED CROSS NUTRITION NEWS Bread has been called "the staff of life", an aptly chosen epithet, for bread is the yardstick of a nation's economy and the mainstay of its population. All this is as it should be, for bread is both a good energy and protein food. How imoprtant it is then, to eat breads and cereals with the greatest nutritive virtues such as those of the wholegrain family. This cereal group includes such grains as wholewheat, oats, barley and rye and is in a different class from refined flours because little or nothing has been removed from the flour in the processing so that the valuable portions of the grain are retained. The germ portion of the grain seed is richly endowed with vitamin Bl, the most important contribution of whole grains. In addition, these whole cereals contain riboflavin, niacin and other less known vitamins.. Minerals too are present, especially phosphorus and iron which are found chiefly in the germ and bran layers, and calcium is present In varying amounts. Is this not evidence enough for conviction that complete grain flours and cereals are the types to eat? The Food Rules advocate that one serving of a wholegrain cereal and at least four slices of Canada Approved Vitamin B bread be eaten daily. Wholegrain cereals fit into almost any recipe for homemade quick or yeast breads, and now that school is in session, sandwich breads are in great demand. This one is packed with whole grains of goodness and r ishment.

Toronto, Sept. 11--What The Salvation Army strives to do is to restore to full community usefulness the fallen persons it reaches In its work, said R. C. Berkinshaw, in asking generous support for The Salvation Army's National Home Front Appeal for $1,500,000. This request, he said, was a modest one and if over-subscribed The Salvation Army would put the money to the best possibie use. "Charity is easy, rescue is hard," said Mr. Berkinshaw, who is Toronco campaign chairman. "The Salvation Army takes on the hard task, the task calling for the human touch and the understanding heart and patience that is never discouraged by failure. That The Salvation Army succeeds in restoring people who have made serious missteps in life can be proved anywhere The Salvation Army operates. "We who are asked to help The Salvation Army have the easy part of it, the mere giving of money. The Salvation Army will do the hard work, providing the patience and experience essential in dealing with the human problems that daily are presented to its members. "All we need is enough of the understanding heart to know that a great work is being done and it will be good for us to help that work along. "The Salvation Army's day in and day out job is helping people to solve their problems," said Mr. Berkinshaw "Many of these problems are serious, such as those of the unmarried mother, the first offender, marital difficulties which can lead to the breaking up of homes. There are also many smaller difficulties, serious to those who are involved in them and which might lead to worse trouble unless understanding assistance and advice were given. Large numbers of persons go to The Salvation Army when they are in trouble and The Army goes out seeking those who are '.n difficulty. "This is truly a ministry of service and we also serve who help to make it possible to carry on this service." The Salvation Army's Home Front September 18, 1945. St. Andrew's United Church, Grafton, celebrated its 101st Anniversary Services on Sunday, September 16th. Large and appreciative congregations listened attentively to inspired messages delivered by the Rev. James Semple, B.A., S.T.B., Th.D., pastor of the George Street United Church in the City of Peterborough. The Davey Sisters' Quartette from Bethesda supplied the special music for the morning service. The Roseneath Male Voice Quartette composed of- Messrs. Willis Dow-ler, Melville Macklin, Alvin Kelly and Lewis Roberts, were heard in two musical numbers at the evening In Santiago, Chile, there is a "Canada School" where Chilean boys and girls are taught Canadian music, shown Canadian books and paintings and being given a general picture of Canadian life. Since the discovery of radium at Eldorado in northwest Canada in the early 1930's, the price of a gram of radium has decreased from about SIOO.OO to $30,000.___ Appeal across Canada is to meet deficits on operations and to provide for the carrying on of its nearly 50 social service and welfare activities next year. R. C. Berkinshaw, General Manager and Treasurer of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. of Canada, Ltd., was on loan to the Federal Government from early in 1941 to May last. He was at first Director-General 01 the Priorities Branch, Department of Munitions and Supply, then for a period chairman of the Wartime Industries Control Board and Coordinator of Controls. When the Government plant for the making of synthetic rubber was in its early stages of construction, Mr. Berkinshaw was named President of the Polymer Corporation, remaining there until May, when the smooth running of that plant permitted him to return to Goodyear. He is also a past President of the Toronto Board of Trade.. TRADERS SHOULD BE TAXED EQUALLY Reprint of Editorial from the Kingston Whig-Standard of July 28, 1945. We agree thoroughly with the submission of the Canadian Retail Federation to the Royal Commission on Taxation of Co-operatives. The Federation said that all who trade in Canada should be on a basis of equality in respect to taxation, neither suffering a penalty nor enjoying an exemption. The principle is sound and just. It might be interesting to apply it to Kingston. As far as we know, the merchants of this city are on a basis of equality in respect to taxation at the present time. If a co-operative were established here, the situation would be radically altered. Merchants who dealt in commodities handled by the co-operative would be under the unfair handicap of competing with an establishment which paid n.o taxes, as against the considerable impost borne by the merchants. We have seen nothing in all the arguments favoring co-operatives which successfully refutes the contention that such exemption from taxation is an unfair discrimination. The argument that co-operatives keep prices down is specious, to say the least. Ordinary merchants cannot hope to compete with co-operatives. Taxes enter the price of goods, and co-operatives do not pay all taxes. Buyers at co-operatives may benefit thereby--for a while. But if the condition continues, we may see the establishment of more and more nontaxable co-operatives--and the Government will be forced to seek elsewhere the revenue it now receives in taxes from merchants. And elsewhere means the people. Buying at co-operatives may thus mean a short saving later to be balanced by increased individual taxation. The thing that keeps prices down Is competition, which is so keen among merchants handling goods susceptible to co-operative handling that their margin of profit is extremely small. Granted equality in merchandising MEN FROM THE ARMED FORCES FOR FARMING Any personnel in the Armed Services, wishing to be released for farm work at any period of the year, should now be advised to:-- (a) Apply to their Commanding Officer for release for farm work, stating past farm experience, giving reasons for request. (b) Give location, type and size of farm, wherever possible. (c) If possible, submit a letter from a parent or former farm employer and a letter from municipal or other official in home locality, indicating need for services. Agricultural Labour Survey Committees have been set up by the Federal Department of Labour, to co-operate with the Armed Services in the release of men for farm work. These Committees represent the Provincial Department of Agriculture, the Armed Services and the National Employment Service. They are prepared to advise farmers or Service personnel on any problems concerning such releases. For further information write your Agricultural Labour Survey Committee, care of Mobilization Registrar, at Charlottetown, Halifax, St. John, Quebec, Montreal, Kingston, Toronto, London, Port Arthur, Winnipeg, Regina, Edmonton, or Vancouver. DEPARTMENT OF LABOUR HUMPHREY MITCHELL, Minister of Labour A. MacNAMARA, Deputy Minister costs--which include taxation-- the present margin of profit cannot be reduced to any great extent and allow merchants to remain in business. If co-operatives are allowed to flourish without taxation, it is not inconceivable that they might in time eliminate competition--and then the most effective of all price controls would have vanished. In due course, we shall hear the finding of the Royal Commission on this question. Whatever its verdict, we would do well to keep in mind an incident which occurred in Saskatchewan, when many retail merchants united to form a co-operative. The taxes they had previously paid were automatically uncollectable--yet we do not recall any drop in Government expenditures by a similar amount. The sum had to be found by someone-- and that particular "someone" was the people of Canada. A large number of the prefabricated, barrack-type huts that sheltered United States Army soldiers and civilian workers during the building of the Alaska highway will be used this winter to house 400 returned service men and their families in Edmonton. Each unit will have its own living room, a small dining room off the kitchen, bathroom, utility room and one or two bedrooms. THAT WILL BE THE DAY!
