Are we like that old parable, the j of the sower and the seed, where the fell on different ground. You recall fell among the tares and was choked. ) all know what the true end of man is f the height of civilization. Has this seed * choked by the riches, the pleasures, the + for new wealth, power and position man is £hyaically a wreck. The present ; mands everything for comfort ‘ individual and our hospitals and instiâ€" are filled with physical wrecks. is called upon to develop to the highâ€" i culture that will be a heritage These Indians are not dropping dead of heart failure, or congesting sanatoriums with psychopathic wreckage, or demanding that society give them doles. The white man â€"seems to have lost confidence in himself and his king. The widespread hysteria of the present is, at bottom, a panic of uncertainty about three square meals a day. The Indian ealmy takes up the slack of his stomach with a belt woven by his own hands. He is capable of being happy though hungry. Down to his Jast meal he goes to sleep in serene conâ€" !idlnu._m himself and the beneficence of food for thought as to where this great civilization of the present is leading us to. Here is the quotationâ€""It has been said that the average successful man was born in the country, where he worked like hell so he could live in the city, where he worked like hell so he could go back and live in the counâ€" try, The Chichisastenango Indian is smarter than thatâ€"smarter than the tourist who maknages an occasional escape from the squirâ€" rel cage of success to enjoy a brief freedom and the glow of feeling superior to these ‘uncivilized" Indians. Uncivilized they may be, but as one scientist reported after years of studying them: . a ic industry, it is not a case of working conditions ; it is a fact that the whole of the ecomomic system of this country and our futuré is being tied up at the present time, by the inability of the present leaders in management and labor and the government finding & common ground upon which they can work â€"and preserve the economic system. It is high time that the people who are mogt effected by the controversy and who suger. would produce a leader that will take hold of the situation and bring about a definâ€" ite/settlement. The present disruptions are bedoming unbearable to the consumer and the individual who has to live from day to day. ) $ CIVILIZATION LEADS WHERE? make up his losses, can the manufacturer and employer carry their immense overheads, carl the poor widow and the orphan and the institutions that are dependent upon investâ€" ments continue to carry on? Can the emâ€" ployer meet the demands and still produce at these figures? These are the questions that must be considered. It is not a case of granting fifteen and a half cents increase on thi plea of the employer, and still nothing is dome. Thousands and thousands of people are idling their time away picketing plants and hindering progress. People who want to work are not permitted to work because leaders control their destinies, and thus week after week the vicious circles goes on, and still the big boss who can control all, sits by idly and pays the increased priceâ€"he is the consumer. What will be the â€"outeeme of this whole situwation? Can the man out of work ever There does not seem to be any anxiety on‘the part of the people with the announceâ€" ment that during the month of July another rise has takem place in the index cost of liv&nx.k _People go on paying the extra half cent or cent more per article, without a murâ€" mur. â€" They do not even stop to ask why since 1989 the cost of living has risen to 125 per cerit. Authorities give us to understand that it is still rising, yet nothing is done.

SAM WILSON, Publisher "As for the "student of economies" who is said in the article to have written the letter to Mr. lisley, we have Jlooked far enough into the matter to be reasonably sure that the "student" is really a stockâ€" broker. Just why he should not be honestly described as a stockbroker instead ‘of as a "student of economies" in this widely disâ€" seminated matter we don‘t know. Stockâ€" broking in itself is an honest business, so why should there be any concealment of this mah‘s real o€tcupation? We do not suppose that he himself gave his letter to Mr. Iisley the wide propaganda circulation to which we referâ€"that was obviously done by some hidden propaganda bureau, probably the donkey u{’lno to some political party machine. ntil such parties and propaâ€" gandists ulo{t the aboveâ€"board, frank, outâ€" ln-t«hm“mt methods of dealing with the public and Candian newsâ€" glperl. they cannot ever expect to get to rst base, whether on monetary reform or any other party line."â€"The Co,flu Statesâ€" man. © "Now when one sees the same words, quotâ€" ing the same anonymous authority, in a number of widely separated newspapers at one time, all sniping from ambush at the same government policy in monetary matâ€" ters. one cannot but suspect that the space thieves are at it again. ’l'g?particular article to which we refer got extremely wide circulation. Just who circulated it we do not pretend to know, but whoever did met with a signal defeat from an alert weekly press. The newspapers that published it could be counted on the fingers of one hand. The others did not fall for itâ€"but this is written in case they are tempted. ‘"Honest people buy their space and tell their story honestly. As customers of newsâ€" papers they are appreciated and friendly. There are others, however, who never buy any space and who do not tell their story honestly but seek to filch the publisher‘s costly good white newsprint "for free" to work up a propaganda by subterfuge. ‘"We can smell a space thief a mile away. For instance, quite recently there appeared an articleâ€"an editorial if you pleaseâ€"in the Heraldâ€"Tribune of Grand Prairie, Alta., which started off this way: "We are in reâ€" ceipt of a copy of a letter recently sent to the Hon. J. L. IIsley and to all members of Parliament. It was written by a student of économics and says in part:"â€"and there follows a column or so of monetary reform bunk, followed in turn by what purports to be the newspaper editors own editorial comâ€" ment. We found it interesting. It aroused our suspicions, and we were not surprised when we found the same editorial in exactly the same words, and expressing exactly the same sentiments, and using exactly the same quotations in the Glace Bay, N.S., Gazette. In between there tw6 geographical extremâ€" ities the same exact wording appearedâ€"also as editorialsâ€"in the newspapers at Dunnâ€" ville, Ont., and at Perth, Ont. "Just last year certain organizations not far removed from certain golitical parties started a regular spaceâ€"grabbing conspiracy. A lot of "Letters to the Editor" were coopâ€" ered up at a central pointâ€"form letters on different aspects of a party programâ€"then the faithful were invited to write in for copies of these letters which could be signed locally and given the appearance of bona fide views of local people. Space thieves are the bane of any newsâ€" paper Publisher‘s existence. George W. James, Editor of The Canadian Statesman, and for a number of years Chairman of the Advertising Committee of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association, has this to say for the wouldâ€"be grabbers of free space in a recently published editorial: FREE SPACE GRABBERS BANE OF PUBLISHER‘S EXISTENCE Maclean‘s Magazine, as usual, in giving prominence to this article, has rendered a distinct service to Canadians, for without undue alarm a case is presented that will serve to mould public opinion; to inspire an immediate awareness of a danger that has long been developing. If this kind of true picture could be projected to the peoples of the democracies and Russia alike, the force of their convictions laid upon present leaders would change the whole picture. We have been told and we realize in some hazy way that an atomic war would virtually wipe out civilization. It is time we acted upon that assumption. It is hoped that all those who read Mr. Shapiro‘s article in Maclean‘s will pass it on to others to be perused thoughtfully and carefully at this most critical time in world affairs. Shapiro is acknowledged to be a careful observer, an able writer whose opinions carry great weight, particularly among informed people in many parts of the globe. He sets forth his arguments that we are heading for another war under our present inept leaderâ€" ship in a way to open the minds of the great mass of people to the situation. He goes on to suggest ways and means how real underâ€" standing can be achieved and the looming conflict avoided. He quotes opinion that, with 20 million recently slaughtered, we are blindly heading for an atomic conflict which may break out anytime within the next six months to ten years. The writer argues that the masses should be persuaded that Comâ€" munism and Democracy can exist in one world, given universal enlightenment. Maclean‘s Magazine, August 1st.
