Forty local co-operatives in On- tario operate egg-grading stations and each local mai-kets eggs ta the surraunding district. To develop a mar-ket in larger cities, a num- ber o! these lacals join tagether through the United Ca-Operatives o! Ontario. They also turn ta Centrai ta handle the export o! their producîs. The same thing applies ta poultry, dairy products and wheat. In livestock, United Co-Operat- ives is operating the largest com- mission business in the Ontario Stock Yards at Toronto. Profits fromn this venture are channelled back ta' lacals and are used ta benefit member-purchasers. People Control It United Co-Operatives o! On- tario is awned by the 50,000 mem- bers of the 140 locals in the prov- ince. As the locals are cantrailed by members, sa the locais uniter ta contrai Centrai.11 Each local is a common share- halder in Central and depending on the volume of business, it may have fromn one to five votes. 0f the $800,000 share-capital in Central one half is owned by locals, the rest by earlier indi- vidual shareholders. Gradually the latter's investment will be retired and control will revert to locals which in turn are contrali- ed by the people. Co-Operative Principles The principles o! United Ca- Operatives of Ontario are: Uni- versality, including open member- ship, racial, reiigious and political neutrality; Democratic control, wherein one member receives one vote and there is no voting by proxy; limited returns on capital; Return o! savings through patron- age refunds; Continuai education; Sales at mar-ket prices; Business done for cash; Reserves to achieve financial self-sufficiency and pro- vide for contingencies; Contînuous expansion.

They have founded new homes in Canada- have they found the true democracy they came 50 far ta seek? They are dis- covering the untold wealth o! farm and foi-est, mine and miii- are they finding the counterpart in the hearts and minds and spirit of the Canadian people? "We who are yaur childi-en, know you, 0Oaur land"', sa do not let us fool aurselves and thus strip aur country of her mightiest opportuniîy. With homes that can be buiwarks, with educational tacilities unsurpassed anywhere, let us keep remembering that the leadership o! the future goes ta men o! moral courage; that as a great Oxford philosopher said, "A nation that bas erown up intel- lectually, must grow up morally or perish'. For this, we need a re-dedica- tian o! aur people ta the elemen- tary virtues of honesty, unselfish- ness and lave and we must have the will ta find what unites people rather than xvhat divides them. July lst, 1950, can become for Canada the symbal o! a new era, a new age leading on ta a new world. OBITUARY MRS. ALEXANDER K. B,IRKS Mrs. Minnie Birks, nee Elfard, mother o! Dr. W. H.
