(The CYC will reconsider the other half this fall.) This poor mouthing is accompanied by warnings that new housing will inde- finitely: be without service, that little if any temporary service will be available for election night and that we country cousins will just have to put up with unfin- ished work; crossed connec- ttons and dead telephones. Why? Because Ma Bell is running out of cash. That is, cash to spend on subscribers. But what about share- holders? An advertisement run recently in a European paper describes Bell Canada as a big investment oppor- tunity; 6 billion dollars in assets and 2 billion in reve- nue last year. From another - source we learn that Bell's profit after tax rose by 12 percent last year. So Ma Bell is speaking with a forked tongue-stable and rich to potential foreign investors, with holes in her shoes and incipieg anemia to us at home Who use her services. Bell Canada was once sup- - posed to be a model of free enterprise efficiency. Suc- cess in business is when the interests of the consumer - and the .investor interlock equitably, not when the con- sumer is being panicked into arate rise to swell the value of its shares.

On their way back they stopped in Freel- ton, their old home town, to renew acquaintanceships. In the variety store in Port Perry an anguished yankee voice was heard, "What has he done now!" While the man sorted out change to buy The Toronto Star, The EN Sun, The Globe and Mail, The Oshawa Times, his. wife peered around him saying , "Oh dear!". There was the name Nixon on every front page. A quick scanning of the column bewildered them even further. 'His name's not Robert," the woman was saying when a bystander kindly took over.
