hk (Saturday Night) The game of sniping at the Canadiarn Manuâ€" facturers Association has become so popular in pulpit, press and platform that a stranger from Mars might imagine that the buccaneers of the spanish Main were meek and devoted curates in comparison. When they were straining every _ effort to secure labor and paying higher wages than had previously been known, they were ‘"profiteers"; now that world conditions have rendered readjustments both of wages and proâ€" _ duction inevitable, they are denounced as someâ€" _ thing worse. _ The percentage of people who take the trouble to seriously consider what the industries our manufacturers have created mean to the country as a whole, and what the Canaâ€" dian Manufacturers‘ Association has done to help Canada "carry on," during the most difficult perâ€" 10d in her history, is lamentably small. ‘The dawn of a new year seems an appropriate time _to survey the services of a much criticized class; â€"and material for such a retrospect is to be found in a statement recently issued by the manager â€" of the Intelligence Branch of the C.M.A. They did nothing of the kind. During the ‘two years that have elapsed since the armistice, they have spent more money in efforts to develop Canadian export trade than in any previous decâ€" ade. Their enterprise was justified because trade returns show that in the last financial year, exâ€" ports of Canadian manufactured goods were ten times the total for the year immediately precedâ€" ing the war. They practically equalled the exâ€" ports of Canadian agricultural productsâ€"the toâ€" tal value of all exports having been about one billion, two hundred million dollars. Such figâ€" ures are an answer.to those who are inclined to regard other Canadian interests as negligible in comparison with agriculture. _ Give the councils and school boards of 1921 all the support and assistance possible. They all have difficult problems to consider and solve. Road construction and repairs will demand inâ€" creasing attention in view of the almost univerâ€" sal cry for good roads. Money, even for siuch desirable purposes, will not be so easily obtained But Canada is fortunate in one respect. Her machinery and organization for production and marketing are on a broader and more efficient basis than ever in the past. Since 1913 a Govâ€" ernment fleet of 63 steel freighters has come into existence with the definite purpose of serving as carriers of Canadian goods, and equipped with passenger accommodation and sample rooms priâ€" marily intended to assist in the Canadian camâ€" paign for wider markets.. The factories of this country are much better equipped than they ever were in the past; and the labor problem, long a serious obstacle to trade ambition, is showing symptoms of solution. While it would be foolish to minimize the hazards that a prosâ€" pective period of deflation hold, Canadian manuâ€" facturers, if they persist in the same courageous «courses that they have developed in recent years, should continue as a great and indispensable factor in Canada‘s progress,. § : How far our manufacturers will be able to keep up the pace during the coming year is, of course, problematical. But in many important lines in which she was not Seriously regarded as a competitor for export trade seven years ago, the name of Canada is now established in the markets of the world. Competition is certain to increase as various European countries, in which industrial production was arrested, are restored to a producing and exporting basis. & Those who were privileged to know someâ€" thing of the worries which assailed the Governâ€" ment of Canada during the long sustained crisis which began in the summer of 1914 are aware that the armistice of November, 1918â€"though it brought great relief of mind, because slaughter had ceased, and fear of defeat forever endedâ€" created a new set of anxieties for those entrusted with the task of administration. The question of how to weather through the period of reconâ€" struction was an appalling oné for mariners in charge of the ship of state. The task would have been an impossibility had they not been able to rely on the strong men of the country to keep their heads steady and render all the help they could. Upon the manufacturers of Canada a special pressure lay, for a sudden abatement of the large export tradeâ€"that had been created during the war would have been disastrous. Moreover, popular sentiment in Canada, as in all other countries, is curiously fickle and inconâ€" sistent. Any governmental measures to help and maintain other interests meet with popular approval; but steps to assist manufacturers to maintain production and wages, at once cause the croy of "Stop, thief!" to be raised by every crank and every outâ€"atâ€"elbows politician in the land. Nevertheless, the record of the manufacâ€" turers in helping Canada to "carry on," have been splendid. If they had been the gross and bloatâ€" ed "profiteers" dear to cartoonists, they might have been expected to hibernate like the bear and live through the time of storm and trouble on their own fat.

WHAT MANUFACTURERS HAVE DONE CE TWO Published every Wednesday by : THE CHARTERS PUELISHING CO., LINIMTED §. CHARTERS, Pre= C. V. CHARTERS, Sec.â€"Treas THE TMES & GUDE EDIT OR 1 A L WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5, 1921 NOTES WESTON Get ready with your good resolutions for the New Year. Work, save, where wastefulness was practised, spend judiciously, be cheerful and agreeable, and the future locally and generally are all right. There have been many mayoralty contests in Toronto, which were followed with interest throughout the whole province, but never to such an extent as on Saturday last.. Mayor Church had served six years, a longer term than that of any other mayor. He was running for the seventh time, and was opposed by a man of wide municipal experience, who had the supâ€" port of The Daily Star. Mr. Church was elected by a majority of 16,000. Explaining the mayor‘s strength, The Mail and Empire says; "Mayor Church‘s strength with the people is a triumph of personality. The people recognize him as their friend. With them it is not a matter o analyzing his public policy, but of knowing that his heart is in the right place. The calculating politician is of another class not unknown to them, and they have sometimes been the victims of coldâ€"hearted selfâ€"seekers. But they also know and appreciate the man of human affections, the man who in office shows himself to be the big brother of his neighbors fighting the battle of life." The correctness of The Mail‘s estimate is borne out by the following incident which apâ€" peared in Monday‘s Globe: On Saturday evenâ€" ing when the news of the "Tommy landslide" had become common knowledge among the big crowds who braved the drizling rain and stood for hours in front of the bulletin boards of the newspaper offices, the Mayor was seen to slip hurriedly out of an automobile, and had almost reached the door of the building when suddenly a shrill voice piped out: "Hey! There he is now, Tommy the winner." The Mayor turned around and looked at the little Jewish newsboy who had accurately proclaimed him to the byâ€" standers. T. L. Church, among other things, is known for his amiability, and stepping over to the boy asked him : "Did you vote for me?" "Not yet," came the answer, "but I will as soon as I grow up enough." His Worship, dropping in the vernacular of the street, put out his hand and sard : Eut her right there." Desctibing the inâ€" cident to some fellowâ€"vendors a few minutes laâ€" ter, the boy proudly stated that he had "just shook hands with Tommy, the Mayor." Writing in MacLean‘s for January, Frank Mutton brings out the following facts and gives wise advice: A reduction in prices in some direcâ€" tions is inevitable. _ Everybody expects itâ€"so why wish to defer it? The corollary of a downâ€" watd. trend in prices is a downward ftrend in costs. What manufacturer or what employee fears such a movement, wherein the buying power of neither is impaired?: Measure up. Adapt yourself to the new order. Be prepared in the transition days to accept a reasonable proâ€" fit, to accept a reasonable wage â€"to take even a loss, if need be, with a smile. Think in precise terms in working out your problems of industrial or commercial readjustment. Don‘t be misled into confused thinking by the inexact phrases and loose habits of speech of people about you. "Normalcy," for instance,â€"you hear it morning, noon and nightâ€"this parrot word, employed in a vague sort of way to signify prices or costs or wages that prevailed before the war. _A moâ€" ment‘s reflection will bring back to your mind the wide fluctuations in prices dictated by supâ€" ply (and demand in the years immediately preâ€" ceding the war. Since in many branches of industry neither wages nor prices may be exâ€" pected to return to "preâ€"war levels," may we not more profitably turn an attentive ear to the same stern old master, supply and demand, than grope for a mythical "Normalcy"! Buy now to satisfy your own needs, sell now to satisfy your neighbor‘s needs. Hesitancy in trade can only aggravate and prolong the readiustment period. Canadians have the buying powerâ€"resources, good crops, sufficient money. Keep these mighty forces moving. In an article in the January number of Macâ€" Lean‘s Magazine, the Right Hon. Arthur Meighâ€" en makes the following reference to the worldâ€" wide unrest of the past two years: ‘‘Undoubtedâ€" ly Canada is not free from this worldâ€"wide epiâ€" demic; how could it be? But when all is said and done, when all the facts are considered, the truth stands out that there is not a country on the face of the earth toâ€"day which is freer from unrest and turmoil than is this Dominion. Exâ€" amine the statistics and what do they show? Eor the year 1919, the time lost during strikes in Great Britain was approximately 30â€" million days. In Canada during the same year the time lost was approximately 4 million days, and 1919 was in this regard a heavy year for Canada. Proâ€" portionate to population the loss in Great Britâ€" ain was nearly twice what it was in this country. In the state of New York alone, for the year ending June 30th, 1920, the time lost in strikes was 10,600,000 days. This is at a rate of more than twice that of Canada. _A single strike of miners in Australia, which extended over a periâ€" od of two years, and which has just ended, cost the country approximately sixty million dollars, which is more than Canada‘s loss in many years. Labor has been just as reasonable, just as sane and just as patriotic as any other secâ€" tion of the country. It has been willing to coâ€" operate, and its coâ€"operation has been of the utâ€" most value in solving problems that have been extremely complex." x _ Girl brides in New York under a certain age are required to attend school unless they present a reasonable excuse. One of them who had been reported for truancy sent a note to the teacher stating, "mwe have started a kindergarten of our own.""â€"Vancouver Province. as in recent years, and as the rate of taxation has almost, if not altogether, reached the limit, in the municipalities of Peel, Halton and York, it will be the part of wisdom to consider well beâ€" fore undertaking costly works of any kind during the present year. It is often forgotten that school boards have the power to spend, a right that is often exercised to the full. This year new school buildinges must be erected in Brampton and at Lakeview if sufficient accommodation is to be provided. Greatest care must be. exercised in making the estimates and in awarding contracts for the erection of these necessary buildings, but it is false economy to delay work of this kind, even when labor and material are expensive, TIMES & GUIDE, WESTON Over 190,000 pounds. sterling has been set aside by the Carnegia Trust ~to help spread the rural libraries‘ scheme. .

S. Congressmen are chuckling over the announcement of the one woman member, Miss Robinson, that she "will make no speeches‘" in the House. They are already betting on this announcement. Professor Roget, of Geneva Uniâ€" versity, stated that "it would be betâ€" ter for couples who propose marriage to exchange certificates of health than engagement rings." The Kenilworth Jockey Club reâ€" ceived $690,231.75 of the bets for the July and October racing meets. The Government received $126,463 â€"and people wagered altogether $6,902,â€" $17.50, In an interesting article on ‘"Womâ€" en and Civilization,‘"‘ the writer holds woman he does want, Martha and Deliliah alike pall on him. There is that "Man does not know the kind of no affinity so strong as that between the best sort of primitive man and the best sort of cultivated woman." The writer, by the way, is a woman. The Monetary Times Printing Co. of Canada, has put a group insurance plan into effect by which allâ€" the company‘s employees are given life insurance protection : ranging from $500 to $3000. In Australia, only 1 per cent. of the exâ€"service men have remained unabsorbed, and the number is deâ€" creasing at 600 per week. Until reâ€" cently unemployed exâ€"soldiers receivâ€" ed 2 guineas a week, and more if married. Local committees aided in this good work. The series of ‘quakes felt at Haliâ€" fax last week were heavier than the Halifax explosion, according to Dr. Johnson, Director of the Seismograph Observatory. In the Dominions, in for?eig'n counâ€" tries, and in the British Isles there were at the October census 231,8$96 Girl Guides, an increase of $0,419 in a year. 130,000 British exâ€"service men have signed requisitions to get free passage to Canada for work on farms.

"Suppose there were a Russian Jew living in England with an Italian wife, smoking Egyptian cigarettes near a French window in a room with a Turkey carpet on the floor. If this man drank American cream sodas while listening to a German band playing "Come back to Erin," after a supper of Dutch cheese made up of a Welch rarebit, then you might be quite safe in saying that he wasâ€"a Cosmopolitan."
