Some of the causes contributing to our utterly unnecessary debt are: the establishment of ten separate governments to govern eleven millions of quite intelligent and dJaw abiding people; the constructing of luxurious and expensive ublic buildings and the maintenance of same to Lnusn an unwarranted number of officials and a retinue of staff; the payment of large sums of money for projects that were not essential to the people‘s interest although, no doubt, of political value. We trust that these practices are in the past. From coast go coast our people must have taken on a new courage when Prime Minister Mackenzie King issuea an invitation to all the Provincial Premiers to meet him in Ottawa to assist in creating a new order, a better condition. It must be kept in mind though, that the remedy does not consist merely in the shifting of debt from one geographical area to another, but in the climination of duplication and waste. In such saving no province should fear discrimination or loss, as every province has in our governmental institutions a representation proportionate to its population. As citizens and regardless of political affiliation we should lend every aid to both flu‘ll)mniniun and the Provincial Governments to revise the B.N.A. Act, to bring it in keeping with our current requirements, to simplify to the nth degree the operations of government, to reduce costs not only within our ability to sustain but within our ability to liquidate." Unsound EKconomics and War "Canada is setting about to measure up to her responsibilities. _ The cost is tremendous. She will carry on as long as her manpower and her resources permit," said Mr. Carlisle, paying a tribute to the "heroie endurance" shown by the British people in the Battle of Britain, and the thigh intelligence, penetrating analysts of the things to be done, courage undaunted, decisiveness of action, and just and kindly consideration for all" of Prime Minister Churehill in his leadership of a people seecking to free itself from and â€"Mussolini and nordinate and Canada a Sound Investment "Investors may hesitate, and some have hesitated, in making investments in Canada due to our being at watr. They are cognizant of the great toll exacted of us in resources, money and men. But there is another picture of Canada. Her crops are abundant; her eranaries are full to overflowing; her mines are proâ€" ducing large quantities of various moetals; her facâ€" tories are at maximum production and many more {factories are in process of construction; her forest products are at a high peak of production; her banks are sound and are providing for the requirements of expanding business; her per capita natural wealth is likely greater than that of any other country; her laws are equitable; her courts are of high standing; her laws are enforeed; her people are of a creditable level of intelligence, law abiding, resourceful, and meet with courage from day to day the problems that confront them. All of these things are essential to a sound and prosperous nation, where safe investments may be made. War Brings Debt "Thinking people throughout the world are appalled at the destruction of this war. What we have accuâ€" mulated for ourselves and our families and others who are dependent upon us is now being liquidated. Several goenerations following us will labor under the burden of debt now being accumulated. Art, buildâ€" ings centuries old and many other things we hold dear have been and are being destroyed in pitiless succession." + But while Canada had achieved remarkable progress in most things attempted, she could not boast of a high degree of efficiency in her political and governâ€" mental administration, Mr. Carlisle believed. ment of the pes to a governme of a political ; cedure that ma "‘The worlkdl not so long ago was very large.

They adopted methods and misconstrued principles, to the undermining of the entire system.â€" Totalitarian states are, at least visibly, efficient and eficiency appeals to most peopie. We do not want totalitarianism. â€" Can democracies continue to exist on their recent past or their present performances? We think not. Can they be so operated to give a greater freedom, a greater ehiciency, a greater effectiveness in world affairs? We think they can.â€" How can we bring about this better state of affairs?â€"by â€" liberatingâ€" our statesmenâ€" from â€" the shackles of party bondage, so they may unrestrictedly serve the people best; by reducing the number of govermments and lightening the awful load of governâ€" ment machinery; by reâ€"organizing the franchise so the unfit and unworthy do not have equal rights with those who work and produce and pay. dn this respect Australia has made at least a commencement." "We believe in the liberty of press, of speech, of thought, but there is a line between fliberty and license," concluded Mr. Carlisle, "If liberty is to continue, license in speech and license to agitate cannot be permitted to destroy liberty itself. It is hoped these distressing and perilous times will make all conscious of the necessity of change, so that the fundamental institutions of democracy may still be our inheritance." A. B.
