opportunity for our citizens to exhibit their best products of rural and ban centres to compete for the prizes not so much with the object of winning money or trophies but rather to compare and strlvc for improvement in quality to the benefit of everyone Keen competition is healthy for advancement And of course where is there better time or place for the people to get together merchant and industrialist for housewives to chat Theres healthy atmosphere about the rural Fall Fairs such same about to begin in the County of Simcoe that is just wonderful Were all for giving the hardworking directors of these agricultural societies all the credit they deserve for build ing up their shows into bigger and better than ever and everyone should get behind them and see that they get plenty of help and encouragement The Harvest Exile Harvesttime is the happy time on the prairies but for the prairie native working in the city its period of dreams and vul nerabllty No matter how far he may

or ill crowded theatre or restaurant his thoughts go back to the bustle of men and machines under the wide prairie sky to the chaff and dust from the slowmoving combines to the streams pouring from the threshing machine and the rows of siooked grain And if he grew up in some small town one of his most tantalizing recollections is the trip to the cookcar of the threshing outfit There he got real

OPINIONS OF OTHERS Communism vs Trade Unions Toronto Daily Star Conservative newspaper has reached the asg tonishing conclusion that trade unions even thRc they purge their ranks of Communists are the best allies that communism has in North America The reasoning Ls that the unions by gaining higher wages and shorter hours for iheir members food inflation upon which the Communists are counting to wreck our economy Not word is said of busin ness profits as factor in ination Oh no it is labors fault and labor can cure it by ceasing its efforts to improve wages and working conditions and by abandoning the strike weapon In other words when the trade unions lie down on the job for which they were created they will be doingi their duty as good antiCommuants Our confemporarys approach to this subject is so blinded by prejudice that the light of reality cannot penetrate Consider the charge that trade unionists are aiding the Communist purpose to cripple and destroy the vast productive economy of North America The weight of evidence directly contral diets that charge The major growth of trade un ionism on this continent has taken place during the last 20 years Production has not declined in that period it has grown and multiplied not only ini terms of inated dollars but in volume of goods The past two decades have witnessed prodigies oft production on this continent never equalled in prevl ious history Of course instances of union featherl bedding and unjustied work stoppages can bei cited only those afflicted by blindness of the othcrl extreme would claim that union leadership hasl been entirely wise and benecial at all times But the thesis that trade unlunimrl cripples production simply does not survive examination of the generall record wealth on this continent is that by and large It now is distributed more evenly over the populationl than ever before This improved distribution oflS wealth did not come about by accident or by Ilce cream was iced cream

The trade unions have had greaIA good cigar set you pack deal to do with it They have been effective ghters against poverty and exploitatiomconditions which offer communism its choicest breedinggrounds The countries which have succumbed to commun ism did not have high living standards and strong trade union movements before its advent with few exceptions they are lands where poverty and ex ploitation were the rule In truth the large and vigorous trade union movement of North America far from being an unwitting ally of communism is powerful bulwark against communism Editorial
