The value for 1927 was re- cently stated to be in the neighborhood of $3,500,000,000, or about $350,000,000 aboye the fig- ures for 1926, This constitutes a record in the , history of the country and indicates the extent , to which Canada has shared in the general in- * dustrialization of non-European countries since i the war The General Manager of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Mr, 8, H, Logan, draws attention to the general growth of the coun- try: I "At the end of 1926 the capital invested in Can- adian plants stood at four billion dollars, but this has been since largely increased by extensive addi- tions to plants and the erection of new factories, notably in the pulp and paper industry, the manu» facturing of real and artificial silk, the automo- bile and allied trades and in coneerns supplying construction materials and household goods of all kinds. The bank has made a careful survey of recent deyelopments in Canada and finds that during the last eighteen months over two hun» dred important extensions have been added to existing plants and over ope hundred new fac- tories have heen crected." Of particular significance are the returns of imports and exports, If we add together our total exports to Belgium, France, Ger- many, Italy, China and Japan, "all countries of low wages," between the years 1868 and 1914 (Confederation and the outbreak of the war) it amounts to the grand total of $149,679,440, Last year alone our total ex- ports to these countries was $188,104,417, Our imports from these countries during the same period (1868-1914) totalled $671,965,286, Last year our imports from these countries totalled $72,792,726. Canadian exports to these countries in 1928 did not fall very far short of being "equal to our total exports between the date . of Canadian Confederation and the opening of the World War. Facts are facts. Whatever may be our political persuasion we cannot fail to join in the chorus of praise and thanksgiving which the knowledge of our certain progress in- spires. --------- THE SCHOUL TEACHER | With the approach of autumn the public schools will be opening shortly and to their labours an army of teachers will be summon- ed. The daily activity in classroom must be resumed. Teaching is a profession that | exacts much more than a routine. It levies tribute on heart and brain and body. A real teacher's work is not over when the bell | personalities, latent or dwarfed for one rea- son or another, is great gain, is satisfying and lasting. Let the school teacher ponder this well, The rewards are as substantial as the rock of Gibraltar and eternal in the values that matter most, DOES ONTARIO NEED MORE BREWERIES? ea Is there any real need for additional breweries in Ontario? Sir Henry Drayton says "No!" Apparently Hon, W. D, Euler, Minister of Inland Revenue, thinks there is, Or per- haps he considers the number of breweries a matter of indifference so long as people want to invest their money in them and the license fees and excise taxes are paid, Telegrams reproduced in a news article in this issue indicate the attitude of the two authorities--Federal and Provincial--with regard to the application of the Budweiser Brewing Company of Canada Limited which proposes to establish a plant in Oshawa, We are convinced that Sir Henry Drayton, Chairman of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, has the matter sized up correctly, He not only says he has "given no approval whatever" but in a recent letter to the Osh. awa Ministerial Association he said: "I am entirely of the view that it is unnecessary to have any more breweries in Ontario," In making this brief but unequivocal statement the Chief Commissioner is entire- ly consistent with previous more extended statements, In an interview a short time ago the statement was authorized that the Board was of the opinion that the 38 brew- eries now operating in the Province are more than sufficient to take care of present requirements, In fact, it was estimated that the gallonage capacity of Ontario breweries is between eight and nine times the demand through Liquor Control Board channels, In view of the above we are at a loss to understand the attitude of the Department of Inland Revenue, whose Commissioner of Excise states, "there is apparently no ohjec- tion to jssue of license," Surely the public has a right to expect that the capacity of breweries now estab- lished in relation to the demand for their product will carry some weight with the Department of Inland Revenue at Ottawa as it does with the Liquor Control Board of this Province. Certainly there should be the closest co-operation between the Provincial and Federal authorities, Any increase in the number of breweries under these circumstances is bound to in- crease the problems of law enforcement not only for the Canadian officials but also for those of the United States, You can not believe in honour until you have achieved it. Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world, --George Bernard Shaw, The only hope of preserving what is best lies in the practice of an immense charity, a wide tolerance, a sincere respect for opin- fons that are not ours.--P, H, Hamerton, bit of Verse | THE WHOLE OF LIFE .

RUBBER TIRES AND RADIALS (From the Toromto Star) A contemporary suggests that when the Hydro radial vote was to be taken in 1923 Toronto was told that the day of the electric railway was past. "Everyone was going to travel an rubber. ° The fact is, however, that the effect of rubber-tired competition was not a major factor in the de- feat of the radial scheme, That costly and grandiose six-track en- trance to Toronto which was in- corporated in it, and because it in- volved a serious loss of trafic to the T.T.C., necessitating, in all probability, a higher fare. The probable effect of rubber- tired competition was not empha- sized because it was not fully fore- seen. It is easy to realize to-day, however, what an important factor it would have been in making the Hydro radials even heavier defieit- producers than was anticivated by ticge who opposed them on other grounds. For while the bus will never replace the electric railway in handling mass trafic in large cities. bus and private motor ear competition has had a staggering elect upon the finan:>s of inter- urban roads, many ef which have Lean torn up.
