comments sideration of ontario rural municipalities because there is a strong opinion that towns and villages should receive some consideration even to the extent of 25 per cent our election chief federal elections are big business jules castonguay is canadas chief expert on such matters for the past 32 years the man who is now chief electoral officer of can ada has been handling elections his job is unique and so is this son of a family of 15 from vaudreuil he can only be removed from office by impeachment he has the rank and the power of a deputy minister he reports to no one in the government but only to the governorgenerahncouncil through the secretary of state he is the only man outside the cabinet who is in formed when an election date has been set usually he is called up to the east block about 10 days or two weeks ahead of such government that gives him 60 days to do the job or rather finish it here is what he has to do with a staff of six he starts 40000 enumerators to work collecting about seven million names of voters despite the fact that there is a perfectly good municipal voters list that only needs the attention of a court of revision always printed and available hemails tons of printed instructions and other data to electoral clerks throughout the dominion sends 15 million books out to enumerators mails 19 million copies of i revised lists to- gether- with unrevised lists for the 25000 polls and of course there is the overseas vote to think of during the election period he is empowered by law to hire and fire whom he wants then he has to convince the auditorgeneral that what he paid these workers was the correct scale for the job two will call soon there will be a knock at the door of the canadian home on the threshold will stand the victory loan sales man confidently expecting an invitation to come in it will be the eighth time that he knocks at the door and his con fidence will not be badly founded for more than three million canadians have long since learned that he is indeed a friend and brings with him something of real value for the householder the victory bonds he offers are now visualized everywhere as instruments to guide individuals towards a more secure postwar situation but let us not forget that there are two callers at the door when the salesman knocks- behind him in spirit is the canadian boy in uniform who is backing up the sales man in his effort to increase the size of individual victory bond purchases not so much because of his concern for the future material benefits to the purchaser but because those purchases help to guarantee the continued flow of arms and ammunition to the battlefronts the canadian who decides to buy a hundred dollar bond after listening to the victory loan salesman may change his mind if he looks over the shoulder of the sales man into the eyes of that sailor soldier or airman who counts on folks at home to back up his efforts overseas sucha look may prompt a two hundred dollar purchase village roads get no help roads that are designated county roads receive a sub sidy from the ontario government of 50 per cent for every dollar spent on their upkeep township roads likewise are subsidized to the same extent but roads in towns and villages do not receive any subsidy whatever unless it happens to be some provincial highway which of course is under the jurisdiction of the government has the- time not arrived when the government should subsidize roads serving towns and villages after all thousands of motorists live on these streets pay gasoline tax just as the folks in the township but nothing comes back to them by way of aid in maintaining their roads this is a matter that should receive the con- farm machine production until further notice production of new agricultural equipment and attachments will be at a rate that repre sents 725 of output in the base period production of re pair parts will continue at 100 assuming this rate was to continue throughout the entire production year- starting july 11945 this would mean a total supply for canada of- 172000 tons of this total 124000 tons would be produced in canada the fin ancial post reports as originally planned it had been arranged to produce j74000 tons in canada and make available a total supply of 238000 tons for the next production year what is expected is that the present allocation will be reviewed again at the end of the european war actually 194445 program calls for 100 production for the year but there is at present inserted in the program the clause which cuts back production of new equipment and attach ments toy 275 until further notice in view of the criticism of canadian agricultural imple ments imports made last week at washington by senator william
