As predicted a. few weeks ago, the aggressive move against Finland by the Soviet evidently had a great inuence on a, number of Torontonians whose sympathy had gone to the Communists of this country.

U Whenever business faces a crisis, the first thing to suffer is the advertising appropriutioxi. Para- doxically, it seems the easiest. way out. That less advertising means smaller sales always appears to be a. far cry at pruning time. No doubt about it. Canada is facing a crisis right now, but it isn't the ordinary kind. Business won't be "as usual, it will be innitely better. Industry, commerce nance and agriculture will be taxed to capacity to fill the needs of those at home and at war. In a few months, there will be no such thing as un- employment. Average purchasing power will have increased. and so will the average spending. Obviouslv. 1940 is nnt tho: timn m czfnn nrlunr- mwvuecu. uuu so wux we average spenamg. Obviously, 1940 is not the time to stop adver- Ilslng. On the contrary, the opportunity is wide open to invest in future sales while the going is good. Remember, too, that some percentage of ex- eess prots can be devoted to constructive develop- ment of business via. advertising. Printers, en- gravers or publishers will not only benet by the business, but will be better able to devote their energies to the cause of victory and right.

Just con- slder this fact: With the three Toronto daily newspapers vigorously supporting Ralph Day as the man to be elected mayor, and at the same time blasting at Lewis Duncan, his opponent, with just as much vigor, Duncan almost beat Day in one of the heaviest polls in the city's history.

Canada has pursued a moder- ate policy or expansion in company with the United Kingdom, Sweden and certain other coun- tries. In consequence of that policy. Canada. was able to reverse the deationary trend of the early depression years and to facilitate an expansion in national production and business activity that has been more consistent and prolonged than in many other countries. She has also effected a general reconstruction of her debt through refunding loans at lower interest rates and has repatriated. during the last ve years, over $900 millions of Canadian debt held abroad. The net result has been to ef- fect a. substantial decrease in the cost of govern- ment debt and to strengthen greatly Canada`: credit position. The new war lncan 1iLvn nvnh-:i|\1xr n11 Inn..- an...
