Some of the messy accidents occurring now between truck: and passenger cars may be ytodified to some extent in the near future it an amendment to the Highway TttUN: Act is cnlomed. Manufacturers of hush bodied trucks may in future be required to install bumpers on their vehicles before releasing them to the customers. In the past, hundred of drivers have been killed when involved in an accident with a truck. The modern low slung plunger car will drive right In under the high trucks with the result thet the top ot the car Is sheered oft and-sometimes the drivers head goes with it. Formerly no satisfactory way ot attaching bumpers to than high vehicles had been found, but one mtututtbcturer now claims to have devised a method assuring complete success. . Bumperless trailers and trucks have been accepted as a must for too long. There are more than enough highway hand; without having them built in at the source of the vehicles. While the installation of bumpers on high bodied trucks and trailers will not stop motorists from crashing into them, there is little doubt but that they will save some lives, in that it will prevent the passenger car from driving under the truck. If this new measure is the means of only saving one or two lives it is worth the trouble and expense to install. In alt the talk about taxes-and thére is a good deal of it with Ottawa estimating its next year's spending at " biiiion--one {act is hardly mentioned; as long as the tax is hidden the public with lime complaint. . People who objected to paying the $2.50 annual radio license fee now pay without complaint 15 per cent tax to support the CBC w hen they buy a radio or television set. On a $400 television set, for instance. the buyer pays about $30, or the equivalent of the radio license fee tor 12 years. The television set will probably last five years and every time its owner buys a part for it he will pay another 15 per cent on the repair equipment. Editorial Comment Parents complain about the price of children's shoes, but they rarely complain about the 10 per cent sales tax hidden in the price. They pay the 10 per cent sales tax and an extra 15 per cent luxury tax when they buy a car and rarely complain. 'Other Editors Say Recently the Ontario Provincial Council of Women suggested that retailers' price tags list the tax content of their goods as a separate item. Specifically, the Council is attempting to draw atten- lion to the luxury taxes placed on many essential articles as a deter- rent to buying Just after the war. In that connection their tax-tag idea is not a bad one. _ (From The Financial Post) Once agaln the question of toil roads has been raised in Canadn. In three of the most populous provinces the authorities have been urged to take action. C 9. "If highways like the Queen Elizabeth, No. 3 (i.e., the Niagara- Windsor), the Barrie Highway, Toronto to Montreal route, and the super-highway from Windsor to Toronto now under construction were set up under a toll road authority," says T. J. Mahoney, manag- ing director of the Ontario Good Roads Association, "it would relieve the Government of many millions of dollars' expenditure on roads." In this particular case as in all of the others the example of toll roads in the United States has been cited approvingly. But is that a good example? The situation in most of the American states is very ditterent from that m all of our provinces. In this country motorist, are taxed at least 10 per cent on every gallon of gas they buy. Over the line. the gas levy is very much less, in most cases less than half of what we pay. The average American motorist in a year stil pays less including tolls. than the Canadian motorist would without tolls. PAGE TWO Let's keep that fact clear. In a few areas where our tame is extra heavy and where special highways would be iustifled, perhaps we may sometime want toll roads. but remember these will be extra roads " extra cast _ With our levy gasoline and other car taxes, every Canadian road is a toll road, whether 11 is a super-highway or merely a gumbo trail. Little did the late Jack Miner in 1904 realize when he started his Wild Life Santuary at Kingsville. Ontario, that his refuge system of Conserving Bird Life would be copied all over both the United States and Canada. Little did he realize that with little grammatical education he would have a lecture career preaching Conservation throughout the continent that would draw such crowds as to have 13,000 admissions In three days and that his message was so far reaching that in 1906 l the Minneapolis Journal ran an editorial which referred to him as? the "father of the Conservation movement on the continent." 3 Little did Jack Miner realize when he started his Bird Sanctuary that on May 7, 1935 when ng George of The British Empire was celebrating his Mth Anniversary as King of England that he (Jack Miner) would be chosen to represent Canada on a world wide broad, Last With this British monarch. Little did Jack Miner expect when he conceived the idea of a game rf'fugo that it would gain such recognition to cause King George VI. son of the above mentioned monarch. to bestow upon him the Order of The Brili‘h Empire (OBI-1). the highest honor that could come to any Canadian from his sovereign and with the honor tame the citation which read, "For the greatest achievement of Con, servatmn in the British Empire FT Not only was Jack Miner's achievement recognized by the British Emplre but in 1943 queen Juliana of the Netherlands in gay- ing tribute to Jark Miner said, "The work done by Jack Miner is of utmost value to scientists the world over and deserves all the recog- tuition It receives now and for all time ., The great thing about Jack Miner was that he not only preached Conservation but he made a practical demonstration. The birds of the an whim find safety and have for now a half century stands as I living memnnal to his trtstttht and foresight. "2 KING ST.
