In a few well aimed blows he demolished this 'futile witless contraption, this: con- tribution to those who had sufferedin con- centration camps.' For this act described by the local magi- strate as a 'bit of wicked, malicious, calcu- lated hooliganism' he was fined £10.- Previously to this 'so-called 'wanton act art critics had awarded the pieee.of junk The Hon. "Stuart S. Garson in a recent public address has listed five cardinal rules: - for the business man who wishes to stay out of trouble. --Don"t arrange with others to rig prices. ---Don't enter into agreement with others to limit supply or distribution. --Don't arrange with others to keep new- comers from getting into your kind of business. --Don't practice resale price maintenance (applies to wholesalers and manufac: turers--and was outlawed by act of parliament in 1961) --Treat your retail customers on an equal "basis (again applies to wholesale 'and manufacturers--) . The Minister went on to point out that there were many other things not to do.in ------business but he felt that if one could avoid not much retraint when he was + refugee rather that the blacksmith, SET sa a prize of £46500 Incidently, the SRatr of this bit of junk was an Engli shman, Reg. Butler--a- blacksmith by trade. * _ .While the. law must be upheld, we must Tonfess our sympathy goes out to* the . In a wiser society than: the present one: we 'enjoy, no doubt the affair would: have been quite the reverse. For having suffered as a politicakirefugee, Laslo, the Hungarian would havesbeen awarded £4500 as com- pensation for the injustice at' the hands of his fellows and Reg. Butler, the: English man would 'have: been fined. £10. for. his insult to those. who had suffered and to the cause ofiart in general. How To Carry; On Through in Business transgressing these:five no serious trouble could arise between-you. and the, govern- ment. Unfortunately in the past much of the co-operation found in our highly competi- tive system of business was: directed to . "ingtituting one or several' of the very things about which Garson had spoken. If business co:operation were used for the purpose of seeking: a fair: deal for all rather thanusin seeking an unjust advan- tage for a select group such statements by the Minister. of 'Justice would be quite: un- necessary. When we are prepared to ad- mit that business is after all not an end in itself but-simply a means to furthering a better kind: of living the practices about which the government is so concerned. will tend to disappear altogether. no me PASSING SHOW STARights x by - In one-of the city papers appeared in large print this heading: "Germans .

We have all heard of the happi- ness .(WNLLB. has bYoUght to many-a blind Canadian, but one case we thought was particularly outstanding. A middle-aged man lost his sight sud- denly through an accident. - He would not see any of his former friends, and refused to leave his bedroom. All the furniture was removed but the bed and one straight-back chair, His wife was expected to bring meals to the room The whole family suffered, till fin- ally like the drowning grasping at a stritw, someone appealed to C.N.I.B. The gentleman received the. blind IYigld Secretary coldly, and showed little interest in conversation: "Where's the furniture?" the field man asked, discovering by ear and touch that the room was almost empty, "I_bhad it taken out so 21 would not bmp into it," replied the potential client. That was the professionalla ¢lue, and, as one blind man to another, he deftly demonstrated the ability of a sightless person to walk nimbly and easily. - The new client was sceptical, but the sightless Field Secretary had lit a spark of hope in the other's heart. Later, when the Home Teacher, -a: trajned instructor, blind herself, skill-- ed in unravelling the maze of confu- sion, resulting from loss of vision, be- -gan-ealling regularly at the house, her doubting -pupil slowly started to rally. With the teacher's encouragement, the gentleman felt his way downstairs and learned to find his way cautiously through the rooms, around chairs and tables until he was once more putting in a regular appearance at the family crele, That man -has come a long way. i He's now a member of a recreation- al club for, the blind, and those who met him in the early days think of him as a different person.
