THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., NOVEMBER i\ 1945 iMACfoMLD'S VOICE OF THE PRESS WHO KNOWS? We confessed that we didn't know why trees turn red in the fall. But the arbori-cultured Chatham News is brighter, and says it's because they're embarrassed, knowing that their limbs will soon be bare.

Individuals have more than trebled their savings in bank ac- otlie: , gover ts since 1938. ed that at May 31, 1345, individual Canadians bad in currency, bank deposits, refundable taxes and dominion government securities more than $9,500,-000,000 -- representing an increase of more than $0,500,000,000 compared with 1938 -- and this does not include savings in the form of life insurance, pensions, homes or corporate securities. * The intensive campaign to borrow from individuals has borne good fruits. The number of individual subscribers grew from 946,-549 in the first victory loan to 3,-178,275 in the eighth loan last May. It is the hope of those interested in the economy of both the country and individuals that this great number of subscribers will be maintained or exceeded in. the ninth loan. Canada is on the alert for opportunities to enlarge its trade markets. With Canadian products rationed to foreign markets during the war, there was no need of advertising but now the time is at hand to map out a really broad and vigorous program of peacetime trade promotion. For this purpose all trade commissioners stationed in Latin American countries are being called to Ottawa for a conference in November, Trade and Commerce Minister MacKinnon has announced. They and senior trade officers in Canada can come to close grips with all the many individual problems that must be taken into account if the program is to be practical, well-balanced and well-sustained. Latin American countries are markets of ever-hcreasing importance. Even unde, the extremely difficult conditions that prevailed during the war years, Canadian exports to Latin America increased by 70% and imports increased By almost 400 per cent. There is warm goodwill between these countries and Canada and it is good policy to foster this feeling. The fame of Ontario as a good place to live has spread far afield. Major James S. P. Armstrong, Ontario agent-general in the United Kingdom, reports that about 30,000 persons -- 90,000 if families are counted -- have indicated that they would like to settle in Ontario when emigration is possible. But great care must be taken in selecting immigrants even when it is decided how many more people Ontario can suport. Persons interested in settling in Ontario must^ answer questions about their work,' the availability of funds for travel and so on. Unsuitable persons can thus be weeded out immediately. Major Armstrong said it was made clear that the movement of settlers would be elective, with the probability that priorities would be-created giving precedence to British men and women who served in the forces, to craftsmen whose skills were required for Ontario districts or industries and to those with plans for establishing new industries in the province.

The London Daily Express said recently that most of Germany's U-boat fleet will be taken well out into the Atlantic and scuttled. Britain, the United States and Russia are selecting six U-boats each for experiment and research the paper said. The remainder ol the 180 submarines now in British waters will be stripped of instruments and mechanical devices and scrapped, it said. U-boats captured in Germany and Norway will also be destroyed. Britain remarked: "The British came out of the war tired, cross and impoverished." He was referring to the people of the British Isl«s. If he were doing his observing here in Canada he might say: "The Canadians came out of the war tired, cross, period." Such an observation might be justified. Located far from the scenes of battle, Canadian homes, factories, and public services remained intact throughout the war. Thus this Country was able to satisfy the demands of a war-hungry machine. And in so doing, Canadian citizens earned money on a scale never equalled here before. Right now, in addition to holding several billion dollars' worth of Victory Bonds, Canadian citizens have a total in savings banks accounts which is the highest in the history of Canada. A critic might label us "cross and tired." But if he really knew us, he would not describe Canadians as ungrateful or selfish. al spirit will be forthcoming in the Ninth Victory Loan campaign. To provide for the civil re-establishment of our men who fought and to provide at least a little of the goods which impoverished people across the Atlantic must have to survive, our people will buy Bonds as enthusiastically in the Ninth campaign as they did in the previous eight Victory Loan drives. Indeed, they will do better than ever before.
