E1112 Titanic Examiner Published by Canadhn Newspapers Ltd 16 Hayfield Street Barrie Ontario PAGE FOUR THURSDAY JUNE 16 1960 norroman High Taxes Cause Inflation Shakes Countrys Economy What is the cause of inflation Arthur Bryant the historian in The Illustrated London News reviews the symptoms and points out that the patient has been all lng here and there due chiefly to over indulgence on the one hand and lazin ess or ignorance on the other Qrganized labor has been demanding higher and higher wages for less and less work more and more social security socialism from the government with less taxes Mi Bryant contends that the direct cause of inflation is high taxation But hlgll taxation is Dhe reflecton of the high demands on the governments trea sury which has no other means of sus tenance No large sum of money on national scale says Mr Bryant can any longer be raised except by taxing the industrial wageearner Any budget that involves substantial increases in the money roisedby taxation is therefore almost certain now to result in further inflation There are thus only two alter natives before any modern British gov ernment to let organized Labor with its irresistible power force industry to raise prices to counteract increased tax ation and so institute new inflationary cycle or alternatively to reduce expen diture in the public field so as to avoid the necessity for increased taxation What is government to do in that situation It cannot control wagerates or prevent the consequent rise in prices If it were to cut down its expenditures on free public services taxes could be re duced or kept from rising But in that case Labor would be Justified in protest ing that the loss of th services meant serious rise in the lg of living and to make up for it wo demand higher wages to make tip for the deficiency Ill other words they would be fighting in flation with further inflation and the end of that battle would be industrial and social deflation Once begun as in the past inflation is difficult to stop says Mr Bryant Nor can see any end to our rulers unhappy dilemma until they are strong enough or courageous enough or both to repudiate socialism and drastically re duce public expenditure When the day comes when the British wageearner re alizes that the only alternatives before him are either smaller effective wage packet or less lavish scale of expendiu ture on Public Services the nemesis of socialism will have come It may of course come too late for the working man like his bettertodo fellow tax payer may by then have become the helpless helot of the Servile State and be unable to shake off its bonds That is how the Roman Empire collapsed and Roman civilization with it Canadian Labor To The Fore Major eruptions may soon take place on the labor front says The Financial Post With courage that has won the applause of all decent Canadians the Canadian Labor Congress split its ranks but ejected the International Brother hood of Teamsters andywith it shock ing labor liaison in the us with thugs and crooks But this is very probably only the be ginning of Canadian labors battle with the arrogant and aggressive Teamsters Can the CLC hound the Teamsters right out of Canada Or will Teamster union drive to swarm out over all the Canadian transportation industries endanger the CLC itself Mostdetermined of the OLD unions the Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Transportation and General Workers will probably be turned loose on variety pf Teamster locals in an attempt to wrench membership away from the Hoffaites The CERT also has about 40000 members in Canada But they will be pitting them selves againsta CanadianJlefimster or ganization backed by an international empire of 1600000 members with gig antic war chest Whatever the outcome there is likely to be more union turbul ence more needless disruption of busi ness and more hurt to innocent bystand ers in one next few years than there has been in the past 15 years The reputation of the Teamster leadership just about guarantees this This will be terribly important testing for Canadian unions concludes The Post News of Former Years JUNE 16 1940 Donald Tomlinson son of Mr and Mrs Tomlinson of 71 Bradford Street was confined to the Royal Victoria Hospital with fractured skull He had been riding on bicycle and following him was Ernie Wildrnan also on bicycle Miles

what is going on in the world around us or so brain washed nnd confused by those in authority over us that we just dont give you know what any way Or both On the political scene We have governments on all levels paying no attention to opposing groups or delegations dismissing them by calling them minority graups in reality it would probably be more correct to say that the only minoriiy char

impressive rec ord since taking power June 1958 will confound hisenemies and enable him to win settlement of the Algerian war De Gaulle apparently detects some wavering among the lead ers of the Sillyear rebellion en couraging him to think the Alger inns can be persuaded to accept peace under some sort of associa tion with irance Observers had notedand were puzzled bya sudden hardening of de Galllles attitude toward the rebels last March although Fer hat Abbas premier of the Alger ian provisional gnverrunent had accepted the principle of selfde termination offered by the French president Recent reports have given an explanation of what may have been behind the change French inlelligence it is sold discovered that the nationalists were quietly plotting to bring about revolution as well as independence and that they were determined not to re llnquish their hold regardless of the result of any referendum on self determination NEW EFFORT De Gaulie now has turned anew to the Algerian problem andde spite serious domestic troubles involving labor and agriculture the 59yearold president is sure in the knowledge that he has raised France to unprecedented mo av prestige in interna tional councils When Soviet Premier Khrush chev unleashed his hurricane of abuse at the summit conference de Gaulle found himself in more intimate confidence with Presi dent Eisenhower and Prime ister Macmillan position he has demanded as head of resurgent France Despite reservations of cans cienec France is obviously proud thatthanks to tie Gaulleit now has joined the nuclear club in modest way by the successful ex plosion or two nuclear devices Barring disarmament agree ment de Gaulle intends provid ing France with small nuclear striking force and the country will then have joined the United States Britain and the Soviet Un ion as an effective nuclear power HOME AND EMPIRE When do Gnuie answered the call to power two years ago he took charge of country on the verge of civil war with an

crossing picket lines and by using the products of the company concerned Here hen is the effect of The Exam iners policy of twisting the news and views so much in favor of management and shareholders

There is no logical relation between your costs and your price And get this one One basic prin eiple should be remembered and that is Get as much as you can be our social scene it is con sidered commendable that chill iren and adults alike can sit at home on Sunday and watch bloodshed and horror on TV but highly immoral to go to ball game or musical show It is all right for man native or tourist to sit in smokefilled room and have beer or two or three if he likes as long as he doesnt enjoy them by singing whistling or laughing too loud Yet he must not have cocktail bar expensive but nice where he can sit and enjoyvhirnself while piano plays if youve got the money honey Be cause he might happen to reach into his pocket and find that working for the wages most people get in this town he hasnt All of which makes us wonder if our social laws are made and enforced by an unseen group of aenlle sourpusscs who have long since had any spark of life that was ever in their well rigor

Insurance By DON OllEARN TORONTO Over the next while we will hear great deal about medical insurance When the CCF government was returned in Saskatchewan it look this as mandate for an insur ance program And Ontario Leader Donald MacDonald immediately hopped on the development to boost his program for similar plan here ENDORSE PLANS The question of mandates of course is highly controversial one Whether in electing govern ment the public also endorses everything it proposes to do can be argued from here to eternity To at least one observer it has seemed that usually the public en dorses government as such That it chooses what it considers the best group available And that particular issues are secondary to this There may be some things about partys pro gram it doesnt like But if it feels this is the best party it will vote for it neverthe less DONT IGNORE Mandate or not however it would appear that the old parties would be foolish if they dismiss medical insurance just because the CC has espoused it It is proposal that has wide public appeal And if the older parties are going to argue against it they had better have strong cases Otherwise they are bound to leave the impression with large segunents of the public that they are out of touch with it BAD THINKING it would be an interesting as sessment to know just how much the thinking of the old parties is restricted because of CCF sponv sorsbip of certain measures Because it is known as socialis tic and because it has shown touches of irresponsibility there can be an automatic attitude to dismiss everything the party prm poses This of course is not right The party can be wrong in some things and yet he very much right about others And failure to appreciate this can mean that certain needed measures are unnecessarily held back FINANCIAL HELP medical plan could be one of these measures Certainly it would seem to be inevitable one day in our society There are other fields particult larly those involving personal fi nances where there would seem to be strong public demand for government action And in the public interest it is better if they are looked at ob jectively If they arent this fact in itself could tend to but the people who profess them into power UBC Student composes Picture Of Types Popular With Ladies VANCOUVER CWFrom the University of British Columbia has come composite picture of the young man who is popular with the ladies He has money and regular ac cess to car takes drink smokes wears desert boots skis jives tangos listens to jazz and plays on some athletic team

dating patterns are tied to ma terialistic standardspeople well off in material sense are suc cessful in dating Mr Macdonald started with the proposition that to understand the selection of mates one has to understand selection of dates People in North America he says tend to be more neurotic than those elsewhere in choosing marriage partners who choose mates unwisely do so be cause they fear possible rejection in ordinary competition This fol lowed irom the dating system which stressed intermittent re lectlon BIBLE THOUGHT Brethren pray for us that the word of the Lord may have free
