interest tq the theories of socialism it has been a bit of puzzle just how these ideal conditions could be brought about so we were intereted in the state ments of premier t c douglas of saskatchewan more since he got into power in that province than we were in the promises that secured his election speaking at regina mr douglas is reported as saying our views are that any utility or economic function which dominates the life of a community should be owned by that community only in cases where private owernship has developed into the stage of a great monopoly are we interested in creating a stateowned enterprise in its place the c c f government in saskatchewan will develop through public and cooperative ownership and control the economic areas in the province where capitalism has failed further in his address mr douglas outlined the three ways in which public ownership could bo brought about the utility may be taken over and operated by the province it may be municipally own cd or the utility may be cooperatively owned by an individual community looks awfully simple but we predict that mr douglas will find it more difficult than either lino type operating preaching or debating in the house of commons we wait with the rest of canadians to see the result of his endeavor if it fails wc can use r linotype operator who knows his job v becoming more selfdependent we plan to go with other newspapermen to morrow on a trip to sarnia and on the invitation of the department of munitions and supply make a tour through the plant of the polymer corporation where synthetic rubber has been produced in canada for m yoar the plant we understand is now fully completed and we are to see synthetic tires in actual use on army vehicles after our return we hope to be able to tell our readers something about this new development which is another step in m king canada independent of large imports of m ural rubber shipped from far away lands and a development necessitated by the war during the first world war many new products were made here when the usual supply was lost perhaps no manufacturing undertaking in this war has been greater that the production of synthetic rubber to help replace the demands for crude rubber wc anticipate with keen interest this visit to the new industry in canada now tilling war needs and soon we hope it will bo able to give some to civilian needs v hie feminine touch i this autumns fashion pages and shop windows are an assurance to many an anxious male that after live wartime years of slacks and overalls the fem inine touch is coming into vts own again we see a suggestion of grandmas bustle in new fall dresses the girls are letting their hair down after five years of feather cuts hats grow fancier ami sillier and its good to see them that way since 1939 weve watched our womenfolk lay aside glamor to help their men win the war the best girl donned khaki airforce or navy blue kid sister looked like a boy in farm service force overalls mothers were snappily attired in red cross uniforms two or three days a week five years in the services on farms and in war plants taught canadian women to work like men and drew for the job but a lot of folks missed the feminine touch in wartime tailoring some got to wondering wherether capable wartime clothes would toad oar ladies forever away from the apronfrilled 1 prettlneas of prauwar life atter sacaweighty discussions on theaubject of slacks and their probable influence on postwar glamor ita comfortinglo know a fantastic bonnet is still a prime drawing card for the woman shopper be she rivetter or red cross worker its hearteqing to see a touch of lace and ostrich plume regain their old place of honor in the womans world this 1944 glimpse of postwar fashion cant guarantee whether miss canada will sit by type writer or the family mending after the war but ac cording to what we see in the store windows these days our girls are going to look entirely feminine at either job v panada where an yean- utile culnrea records compiled by the dominion fire com missioner show that 35 small children met their death by bre in 1043 in canada when left alone in their homes eight others died as the result of play ing with matches altogether 140 children perished by fire last year in canada these tragedies arc reported day after day in the papers but beyond those immediately effected they do not seem to make much impression on the general public parents still insist on going out of their homes and leaving helpless little infants to fall prey to flames from overheated stoves and pipes others will leave children of two or three years of age alone with matches within easy reach of their inquisitive little hsnds many parents say they would never get out to a movie or for other relaxa tion if they had to depend on getting someone in to look after their children these days wartime conditions have made this safeguard a very difficult one they contend what a price many have had to pay for a few hours of borrowed pleasure hearts that will re main saddened for a lifetime because of their neg lect parents if you truly love your children and if you assume your full responsibility in regard to their welfare you will not leave your small helpless children alone in your homes to become tho victims of the lire demon always make sure that there is some responsible and competent person left in charge of them or take them with you educate your chlld- ren in the dangers of playing with matches or bon fires keep matches well out of their reach child a
