In all the talk abqout rehabilitation after the war is ‘won, it would appear that a number of‘ very yital points are being overlooked, For inâ€" stance; there is one feature of the employment question that needs careful thought and stud'y' to avoid a serious situation. Granting that emâ€" ployment may be planned for a large number of workers, it is not well to consider only the proâ€" viding of work. There is the matter of supplying the help that is necessary to make this employâ€" ment a success. The world has been engaged in a form of employment that is altogether differâ€" ent to the type of work and the kind of workers that will be needed in the. days of peace. There are so mamry articles that are now in short supply, or altogeéther hon»ei:istent so many xiew homeS‘ and business bu11dmgs to replace, so much ma~â€" terial toibe ptovrded to supply the demands that are selfâ€"evident that it appears a simple matter to creat@""‘ln}ost unhmlted employment. â€" But such employment presupposes skilled labour and the questlo‘n may well be asked, ‘"Where is "that skilled labour to come from?". When the world, turned from peaceâ€"time occupatiton to the industâ€" ry of war there was considerable difficulty in seâ€" curing the necessary skilled help. With the men skilled in various lines it was possible to apporâ€" tion work to unskilled and to train large numbers to perform various duties that were required. There were large numbers still in apprenticeship and it did require very serious time or trouble to fit workers for the new work desired. The class of work possible after the war, however, is of a type in ‘which it is not so easy to speedily train men and womén Carpenters, plumbers and other mattsmen‘ hre not created in â€"a day.

The ve*ry condxtlons of warâ€" time industry work agamootheomeatlen of any large number.of apâ€" prentjces in any calling. The peaceâ€"time trades have 411 supexed from these conditions.

It is true that large numbers have had intensive training in certain lines at.government expense, but the trouble is that there have been so many in some lines that the supply will far execeed the demand, and because the lines of training will not be important ones required under the peacetime situation, these trained young people will ongy. form: a probilem in tabemselws{ For egample wkxe.n will thes hosts upon h%sfs young people entenslvely schooled in such mfitt@rs as tyflewutmg find work for their trainmg under peacefime condmon.s” At the moment, It looks as if ste ogmphen, dfter. the war wxll be, in gfiq paxlagce "a dime d dozen‘” ’I‘hrere will be ru = sands, of these ‘trained workers unable "to find placei while the demand for skilled worke,rs in other:lmes will only add to the difficulty.‘ ‘When peacem arrives there will be no virtue whatever and even less sense than toâ€"day in that presentâ€" day eyccuse for every deficiency, "Don‘t you know there‘s a war on?

It will not be enouéx to have full opportunity for employment; thereswill be the. eqml nécessity for having the necesfary \\oxl\m\ to fill the places. "It is‘ tl’ue that war conditions have brought out the latent resoufces and ingenuity: and adaptability, of :the peoplg. These qualities, «however, in peacetime will npt take the place of training and knowledge in a world. With the thought of full emplqyment should also go the idea that more than semployment is required. It is necessary for success that there be enough trained and skillei help to make full employment possible. The youmz man or young woman now preparing by lea'ning a trade or a calling is showing wisdom and will add much to the ease with which the trans® ion may be made from wartlme industry _# * *# z* to peadetimec‘employment.

Well, anyway, here‘s a family eligible for the new family allowances. And it is not the only similar case in this great North. And the North isn‘t any better stocked with them than other parts of Ontario, or other parts of Canada, for that matter. Some people would be surprised if they knew how many such cases there are. Other peopleâ€"‘are fiqt% SQ easfly surprised.

If people would stop to conâ€" sider the matter in all its bearings, however, the result would be a greater and more speedy success. The majority on the home front are prone to conâ€" sider how well they would serve if they were at the battle line, instead of recognizing the fact that they may give almost as direct service right at home on the safe front. No man anywhere can do more than his part. Those on the homs 'frén't. fia{e'tb'e'ir part. At the moment that part is to support the Red Cross to the limit. Such supâ€" portâ€"isâ€"a very direct contribution to the cause for ‘which the" servicemen risk their lives. The part of the Rred Cross in the war is such a magâ€" nificent one that every Canadian may well thrill with pride at its success. The Canadian Red Cross has won. the admiration of the world by its notable services. Its great work. overseas for the soldiers, the sailors and the airmen, for the prisonersâ€"ofâ€"war, for the bomb victims, for the people of the devastated lands, has carned the gratitude and the affection of ali. It has given a genuine glory to the people of Canada, second only to that of the men on active service. It has won a great name for itself and for Canâ€" ada. All the people of Canada may share in that fame and that glory by simply doing their part. That part is to support the Red Cross in every posâ€" sible way. The Red Cross is peculiarly a people‘s organizationâ€""of the people, by the people, for the people." It is the privilege as. well as the duty of the people to support it. With every conâ€" fidpnce it may be expected that such support will bg given to the one special thing reâ€" quired is that every man, woman and child, make a personal matter of it... Greet the canvasser as a friend; goming for a friend. Give as you would give‘to 4 friend, to this great friendly cause. With this thought in mind and in practice, the camâ€" paign can not fail. Indeed, on the contrary just as this district has exceeded its quota in the numâ€" ber serving in the Navy, the Air Force and the Army, so the inevitable result will be that the objective for the Red Cross will be reached â€"and passed. The calls upon the Red Cross are inâ€" creasing and will continue to increase, and for this reason the support of the Red Cross should be continued and augmented. is that both of them have to work part ‘of the time. The man does odd jobs, some of them, very odd. The woman does washing and scrubâ€" bing. Of course, that is away from home. She doesn‘t know how they have managed so far withâ€" out the proposed family allowances. The family allowances, however, will make it a lot nicer. And isn‘t that something. «â€" Now, â€"of, caairse;s fil this is not meant as, any élse‘s childfFen, these family allowances will come fa‘ ho%nd«h.bM§ and ‘a considerable help time rou‘)le "You #ould * expect the breadâ€" winner of such a family to be duly grateful, but first you have to find the breadwinner. _ You would hardly mistake the man for that.

This Bill is convinced that there is no justice in the world at all, at all. â€" It is discrimination and discourageâ€" ment to a hardâ€"working man with a large family of small children. The phrase "hardâ€"working" is Bill‘s own words, no doubt because he finds it hard to work. Fortunately for him, however, Bill won‘t need to work so hard now, for even $53.00 will buy quite a lot of beer, even from a blindâ€" pigger. But the taxpayers will all have to work so much harder to support Bill and his, hers and theirs, in the line of children. And Bill isn‘t even grateful.. What a life!

The steady hammering Gen. Dwight D.
