lixzunincr Dear Sir In your September lfitli issue read very interesting arti clc Disniziycd with Socialist Ideas in England was very much surprised at some of the statements git contained especially so coming from person just returned from Englnnd lwas from pure ignorance of the time facts or had Mr Johns sotno for making such lditions in l3ritainnltlr Johns is 1quoted as saying among other lthings The people of England havc forgotten how to work also 110 quote another statement in this lsame connection The problem of lthc working man and his unwill ingness tO do days work for days pay dismayed Mr Johns spent ten weeks in England and Scotland last winter and saw vcry few men walking the streets except on business or shopping and any place where work was going on the men seemed to work witty will Thcgc were few cxccpi tions just like Canada or any oth er country never saw hitch hiker nor tramp as they calll them over there neither did sect young men riding the rods Here is another quotation farmer could not use his own grain to feed his stock but had to senili to him in quantities arbitrarily dcl cided In Yorkshire whcrc Ivisitcd relatives and friends on farms not only could they use their own grain before selling to feed stock pounds to40 pounds year Work commenced at 430 am and contin Hamlettill Limited lt CHRYSLER PLYMOUTH FARGO they managed to supply some of their friends with grain which witnessed Of course they must have permit to sell Mr Johns also says that farm laborers work 44hours with double time for overtime Farm laborers in Yorkshire workl 44hours week and are paid time and onehalf for overtime and understand hours and wages are standard throughout the country He also speaks about wages and hours when he left England in 1913 When left England in 1911 farm laborer married and living in rented cottage was paid 18 shill ings week for 72 hours work and hired man living in if he was big and strong was paid from 20 ued to pm with just time to eabhis meals Nowonder they decided to or ganize Tx Today fliegstandard rate of pay for agriculture workers including gardeners is pounds 15 shillings week for 44 houistapp1oximate Iy $20 and Mr JohnSthinks heis well paid Here is another qttotationand this would take prize for ignor ance of the truth The working cdinpletely by the government andt receiving goodwages with their children fed at school and all medi cal expenses free and assured old age pensions at 600r 65 he has no incentive to work as there seems to be no pdssibility of the proverbial rainy day understand the children now get lunch in school What is wrong0 with that Doesnt Canada pay childrens allowance so they will be assured of milk and worm clothing Now to thesocalled medical ex penses If Mr Johns had taken the trouble to do little investigat vinghe would have learnedthat the Minister of Health issued to all householders booklet show ing the amount each individual from 18 to65according to hisor her status mustpay every Week to the government in order to ge these medical benets As to the assuredold age pen sion which the beneciary is con tun wondering if it dan the situation with Ontario Libemi wcck
