CE h i en se We have those who profess to be alarmed by the falling prices ol butter, and yet in Ottawa, Mr. Gardiner, the federal minister of agâ€" ‘riculture, affirms to the House of Commons there is a "floor‘"‘ price on butter, below which it cannot fall. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation appears to have a low opinion of the mental and cultural standards of the Canadian peoâ€" Fle. For a number of years a half hour programme of tand musâ€" c has been a gladdening feature of the morning programme on CBL. Recently the authorities decided it was time for a change, and substituted a moronic monstrosity which drew from a member of the House of Commons the comment that it was an insult to the intelligence of the people of Canada. It is alleged that the proâ€" gramme has proved popular in the Maritimes, which, if true, is not flattering to their culture.. But one might suppose that the Govâ€" ernors of the C.B.C. would have a minimum standard, below which they would not be prepared to descend, even to gratify the tastes of some of their audiences. We fancy the C.B.C. has little idea of how large a number of people make very little use of radio except for the news and an occasional special programme. The growâ€" ing use of records is an indication that people are turning to that medium to find the entertainment they can enjoy, with which the radio fails to provide them. v"Aga:in in Ottawa a member opposing the coloring of the butter substitute said it should be sold in its natural color, which is white. ‘_"ï¬g_ many Canadian housewives bought Danish butter wrapped in recognized Canadian butter wrappers, not knowing it was the imported butter product they were bgy}_n‘g? f ‘â€"';i'hoâ€"s;-éu_bborting the interests of the dairymen claim to be perâ€" turbed because unscrupulous retailers may attempt to pass off oleoâ€" margarine as butter through false wrappings. EOE ki ds us cA y 2i t _ In the Ontario Legislature we see a member urging the governâ€" ment to take action to prevent the substitution of oleomargarine for kutter, unless there is a clear distinction between the two proâ€" ducts. The battle of the dairy interests against the manufacture and sale of oleomargarine is now approaching ‘tpe ludicrous. Bhere should be no favored group in Canada. Any government that attempts to fly in the face of public opinion especially when it is a justifiable opinion, is merely laying its political head on the executioner‘s block. They should attempt to meet the competition of oleomargarine by a reâ€"examination â€"of production and distribution costs as they relate to Canadian butter:: It is going to be hard to.convince the people thb,t butter is worth anything near 70 or more cents a pound. Sudbury Star Recent press reports that even traditionally nonâ€"politicalâ€"labour unions are becoming more and more interested in national politics and that those previously cofhmitted to intense political action have allocated fairly large sums of money to back the party of:their choice and are planning to establish political action schools in . industrial areas point up one inescapable fact: industrial workers * are not sold on the system of private,enterprise and they are movâ€" ing more steadily left on the grounds that what they are seeking can only be secured by the defeat of the old line partiecs at the forthcoming federal election. | Anyone who believes that industrial labour still looks kindly on the private enterprise system must be classified as a wishful thinkâ€" er. â€" Labour certainly doesn‘t hate the system, but neither is it sold cn it And the reason for this neutrality of thinking in recent years, a neutrality that news reports indicate is now disappearing, is obvious. The system never was something that could be sold across the hoard like a pound of butter or a package of cigarettes, tut it can and must be sold day by day in terms of sincerity of intent and honâ€" esty of purpose. It must be sold to the individual employee by top mnanagement and the real results will only be achieved when top management decides positively that employer and employee. are going to get alongâ€"not just for the duration of the current labcur contract, but for good. alarm of these interests is illâ€"founded. All they have sucâ€" ceeded in doing up to this point is to lose public sympathy and supâ€" port. It seems time for the dairy interests to stop the guerilla warfare in recognition of the fact they have lost the main battle. When this decision is made, then personnel directors and public relations managers and employee magazine editors can get on with the job of wooing and winning the employee back to the system which actually has done more for him than any other system can possibly do, but whose proponents have consistently failed to tel‘ theh _story to the right listener. . .the employee himself. ~~~~Timmins, Ontario, Thursday, March 31st, .

This was the South Porcupine Board of Trade, with W. Proctor Smith as president. Harold Proctor as Secretary, and Captain The South Porcupine Board of Trade in 1912 had so many problems to face that is must have besn a puzzle to decile which, to tackle first. The South Porcupine Board of Trage met the situation by promptly calling for all the pressing needsâ€"better railway facilities, more roads and better roads, sidewalks sanitaticon, school facilities, better homes and more of them, street lighting, better telephone service, and cVerything The council and other government bodies were fairly showâ€" cred with requests and demands, and sc insistent, and persistent, were the old â€"timers that many of the needs were supplied. ‘Thos.

In later years of the work formerly czrried on by the boards of trade is the value of an active board of trade is still evident at many times. The people of Schumacher always appeared to be able to watch the interests of that community, but so far far as the records show, it was April of 1918 before there was a regularly orâ€" ganizeqd board of tradt in Schumacher. J. R. Todd was president, Geo, C. Murâ€" phy viceâ€"president, and James Shewan secretaryâ€"treasurer. It is several years sinct these gocd citizens of Schumacher passed to another world, but the work they helped to accompâ€" lish still lives toâ€"day.

One of the special proâ€" jects of the Schumacher Board of Trade in 1918 was the organization ard carrying out of a "Cleanâ€"Up Day" (May 8th) for Schumacher.
