MESSAGE AT THE SOUND OF THE TONE YOU MAY REPLY TO OUR FRIENDLY COMPUTER AND MANS VHONE is HIS PLEA 78 Pressure on Canadian US Interpreting the news Fou rth coll for restraint LONDON CPI For the fourt con secutive year the British governme has called for wage restraint considering that the fight against inflation must take priority over union appeasement With Prime Minister James Callaghans Labor administration likely to go to the polls within matter of months the decision to curb wage boosts appears to be calculated political risk especially with the demands by unions for return to free collective bargain mg The unions had hoped that after three years of accepting restrictions on wage increases they now would be free to get as much as possible out of management particularly with the casing of previouslyvhigh inflation rate But the government has argued that the reduction in the inflation rate to about 75 per cent from the alarming 28 per cent four years ago was due principally to workers accepting curbs on their wage pa ckets GUIDELIer REDUCE What is more disappointing to the unions instead of continuing the 1977 recommended ceiling of 10 per cent wage increases the government has reduced the current guideline to five per cent With the national average wage ranging about £80 $170i the fivepcrcent limit would hold the average increase to about £4 l$850ira step behind the average rise in prices Guidelines do not have the force of law but the government through various means can bring pressure to bear on those firms which ignore the recommendations and bow to union demands for higher earnings In fact most unions pledged support to the governments inflation fight and it wason the basis of Laborunion compact that the guidelines generally became effective The question now is whether the unions will continue to heed the governments plea or try to seek better deal even if this means defeat for the Labor party in the next general election PKHFER LABOR PARTY

are hardly prepared to stem the tide of bad taste and bad manncis Government encouraging as it does bad manners bad taste and mediocrity cannot hpr us only hinder U9 up to us Stemming the tide of the

reality which removes the Queen from being part of Parliament and which concentrates power in the hands of the Prime Ministers ap pointee the GovernorGeneral The Governor would exercise power in his own right giving way to the Sovereign only when she was pre sent in Canada Not only is this gratuitous insult to the Queen whose labors and in terest have been directed so evidently to Canada but it also would allow for government to consolidate its own power without The deceitful danger of the Bill is that it maintains many of the Crowns trappings while these sym bols would in fact stand for altered ideas and quite different institu tion Equally it would preclude Prince Charles or Prince Andrew from scr ving as GovernorGeneral it would eliminate rcfcrcncc to the Queens Canadian Forces and it would abolish the happy status quo whcrcby both Queen and governor can exercise their powers fully within and without Canada Canadians determined to preserve their institutions should write their

commentary World problems have multiplied over the last six or seven quarters and the US has shown itself singularly incapable of dcaling with those problems in systematic way International financial markets are reac ting to this indccisivcncss by weakening the US dollar against othcl major world curren cics To come to grips with the declining US dollar we must see some success on the part of the artcr administration to push through kingress legislation specifically designed at solving the energy problem We must see specific legislation and private scctor initiatives to stem the horrcn dous tradc deficits that continue to accrue quarter after quarter We feel the US dollar is going lower over the next 90 days This will put further downward pressure on the Canadian dollar If the economic summit was the empty showpiece that it now appears to have been the western world has lost an important op mrtunity to put its house in order And if the participating countrics treat their Bonn commitments lightly as it seems they will then the future holds worse infla tion furthcr weakening of the US and Cana dian dollars and maybe even economic chaos manner which finally resulted in the defeat of Conservative administration What may be of greater concern to the unions than the immediate fivepercent guideline is the announcement by Denis Healcy chancellor of the exchequer that the government wants longterm approach to pay discipline He spoke of system in which collective bargaining is based each year in broad agree ment between government unions and employers That would suggest that return to free col lective bargaining may be long way off with the prospect that the government may be faced with increasing pressures from resentful unions which in the past have shown ability to use explosive tactics to get their way still survive By BOB BOWMAN In 1849 the Tories and the Whigs were the political parties in Canada The Whigs preferred to be called Reformers or Grits Their slogan was All Grit No Dirt and variations on the theme The Tories held convention in Kingston on July 26 and petition was circulated propos ing that Canada should join the United States The disgruntled Tories were mostly business men from Montreal and other parts of Lower Canada who violently objected to the Rebel lion Losscs Bill There were other grievances They had lost great deal of business because Britain had adopted free trade and Canadian products no longer enjoyed preferences in the mother country This led to depression and thousands of Canadians were emigrating to the United States The Annexation Manifesto was signed by 325 Tories including JJ Abbott who became prime minister in 1891 He recalled then that he had signed the manifesto in moment of petulance which he regretted later The Kingston convention provided John Macdonald with an opportunity to demon strate his ability to become an effective leader He had only been member of the legislature for five years but at Kingston he counteracted the Annexation Manifesto proposing the organization of the Britis America League Its objectives were to retain the connection with Britain the adoption of national com mercial policy and eventually confederation of the British North American colonies Macdonalds proposal had marvellous effect on the party and the Annexation Manifesto was forgotten Macdonald did not like the name Tories and was able to chan it to LiberalConservative party in 1854 en he formed coalition government with group of moderate Re formers The present name Progressive Con servative party
