moves to reduce wheat acreage j e w recently us secretary or agri culture benson announced that the 1958 wheat price support level will be redcued to 75 per cent of par ity or 178 per bushel this is 22 cents a bushel below the 195657 support price at the same time the total wheat acreage allotment is to be reduced to 55 million acres the minimum permitted by con gress quotas must be approved hy a twothirds majority of producers in a june referendum but if they are not approved supports will drop to 118 per bus or 50 per cent of parity 000000 that was loaned to the promoters of the pipeline was all paid back on schedule and in addition to that the government collected 1000000 in interest can we deny it was a businesslike proposition sound in all respects and a distinct advantage to our country as the ottawa citiaen recently remarked in an editorial in commending mr st laurent for reasserting at the very utjtaiit of his campaign the liberal belief in parliamentary supremacy ibe voters ought to have realities as well as fantasies put before them bo they can make an intelligent decision on which party is to be en trusted with office the pineline has been built and the deal did not cost the tax payer one cent canada is now getting a new productive asset as im portant today as was years the first transcontinental railway and control of the eommon voting stock did not fall into control of- us interests as the conservatives predicted at that time the government wisely stipulated that a minimum of 51 per cent of the stock must be offered to canada and despite the opposition come back that an offer in canada would not deter the americans from stepping in and buying it statistics released by nonpartisans show that over 60 per cent of the stock was sold to canadian investors large and small and much ado has been made that national sovereignty was endangered by the inflow of foreign capital into canada particularly from the us many countries throughout the world are seeking in every way to get us capital so that they may undertake the sort of development projects that we see all about canada and i dont thtalt for a moment that the canadian nation with its ever i strength and unity will be in danger because of us capital speaking in washington on the matter of us eapluu the presi dent of the canadian chamber of commerce told the annual meeting of the us chamber of commerce canada did and should t to welcome us capital with wideopen arms a nation of lfljekjoyooq people just hasnt got the savings to finance some of tha projects necessary in canada today 4 v us money is increasing canadas productive capacity to the extent that we are gradually reaching a stage where we will no longer be quite so dependent on many types of imports and provide us with the capacity to process all our raw materials at borne it is speeding up canadas growth at a rate which could not be maintained if canada were entirely dependent on many types of imports it has brought with it the management the techrucafskills the knowhow and the assurance of markets so vital to the rapid growth of canada an endeavour is being made to blot out the substantial work of the liberals fdr the people of canada by the sound and fury of our opponents deliberately with much ado about very little the pipe line debate the influx of us capitalmhe opposition hopes to blot out the very real gains made by the canadian people under liberal administration the success of any government should be measured by what ple by it accomplishments in providing a by it has done for its pcopi better life for all and by its foresight in planning for the future any standard of measure the achievements of the liberal government for all of the people has measured up and will
