R. BENTLEY OPTOMETRIST LETTER FROM DENMARK The tollowing letter was re- ceived by Mr. Frm Johnston, from a relative in Denmark, and gives an idea how the Danish people feel about the war, This letter is written to give you some further details of the situation here in Denmark, "Well, let us take our native county, at the beginning: 1 sup- pose you may have heard in the broadcasts and read in your papers about the situation in Danmark among the allied na- tions, about the astonishment with which we suddenly dis- covered ourselves occupied by the German panzer troops. About these facts, we have just finished an examination to find out how it could happen. It is disgraceful to state, but the blame must refer to all the peo- ple. The last twenty years our politicians have cut down--again and again--the grant to the Dan- ish army and navy. We could not resist a bit against the strong German troops. During the occupation the na- tional feeling was strengthened, and by and by the real intentions of the Germans were discovered. We were presented with S. troops and gestapo (the well-known be- haviour of which you surely have heard and read a good deal) until we broke out the 29th of Aug- ust, 1943. Irom that time we have no legal government. During the last two years .a strong resistance against jeries grew out from all people. It is disgraceful to say, but we had a few Danish traitors. Now those men have been made prisoners. Generally in Denmark, people have not starved--thanks to our agriculture most of us have had good food, even if the lower classes and the poor ones have had many difficulties. We did not think we needed the help from UNNRA as did many other countries:in Europe. (continued on page 5) A FARMER'S WIFE LOOKS AT STRIKES By R. J. Deachman There appeared recently in the Canadian Countryman, a farm journal published in Toronto, a letter from Mrs. William Schrag of Zurich, Huron County, a letter -- oP tude to strikes more clearly than anything else 1 have heard or read this year. Here it ig: "It seems that all we hear about these days is Strikes! Strikes! and more Strikes! More pay for less work! I often won- der what all these strikers think (I doubt if they think much, or deeply) when they vote to strike for their demands. Do they honestly believe their action justified? Do they really think they are getting less than their share of the income of the nation as a whole? Do they foresee the result of their. demands, if met, upon the economic life of the country? Or are they deter- mined to get all they can at the present moment, regardless? "Apparently the only large group in the country not in strik- ing mood is the farm population. The farmer seems to be satisfied. He is enjoying a position of eco- nomic parity -- a position in which his returns for a 12-hour day (plus the hours contributed by his wife and children) are cqual to the returns of the indus- trial laborer for his 8-hour day. "Let us assume that all these li groups have a moral right to "a '30% wage increase and a 40-hr. wank, Do they not concede to lall the 'non-striking groups. the same right? Let us be fair and square and increase the income of every person in the country by 307% and cut their working hours to 40 per week, Are we any bet- 'ter off?" Even a moron could "see that we would be in a worse [ position.

The non-farming pop-|' half starved if the farmer work- ed 40 hours per week instead of the 100 hours which he (and his family) spend on the farm work at present. : "If industry were: able, by more efficient management--up to date machinery -- increased output, etc. to offer a pay in- crease, it would be much hetter and fairer to reduce the price of all. manufactured articles, thus benefitting the consumer. That would be helping every man, woman, and child in the country. If a product is lowered in price, the demand for it is increased, exports are increased, and the entire industry stimulated. "With prices, as a result of free competition becoming lower and lower, all workers would enjoy a continuously rising standard of living even though their money wages 'remained at a Siationgry level. "Wouldn't that be a happy si- tuation?
