dollars may fairly be rcgardcd as strong evidence that the pcoplc of our Dominion have faith in Canada today and in her future IIrc the campaign opened under sccmlngly nonl too favorable conditions and with tho objective raised tosl50tl00tl000 the fool ing of many was not very optimistic as to the outcome But when thc canvass got nicely undcr way confidence lllclcasctl and bcfoic thcrxpiration of thc Loan pcriod thc mln sights were set higher As tho days passed the now objcrtivos wcrc gradually over haulcd and finally topprd with ovcr tffo bil lion for all Canada wonderfully successful and hcartcning achicvcmcnt Espccially so when it is considcrcd that this grout volume of bonds hasbccn maikrltcd at an cstlinzvttecl cost of loss than one ccnt on the dollar for advertising supplies commissions etc It would be impossible for anybusincss con cern to raisc money so cheaply In the rcsult Barrio and Simcoc Wcst fully played their part Bonds to thc cxtcnt of 86155900 were sold in the unit as compared with $3952000 in thc Eighth Loan When Larric rcachcd thc million the salesmen kcpt right on going and finished with the splendid total of 81601850 This was four times what Barrio purchased in the First victory Loan Collingwood deserves special mention for its flue showing going over the million for le first time on record notwithstanding to loss of the Clyde Aircraft payroll and reduced employment at the shipyards Notwithstanding the discouraging Fall the farmers bought on scale even better than before While feeling of patriotism was very important influence in securing support for the Loan selfintcrest was not overlooked by invest0rs Purchasers realized that the Ninth Loan was good investment espec ially with lovver interest rates in prospect The USA Victory Loan pays 212170 and in Great Britain loan at 21400 was withdrawn in the expectation of floating another at lOWer figure The United States recently gave loan to Great Britain for $5000000000 for 50 years at Money was increasingly plentiful as savings bank deposits showed without profitable investment in sight This combined with scarcety of consumer goods created demand for such sound security as the Ninth Loan feature that helped to put pep into the campaign was the addition of 17 servicemen as salesmen who entered into their work enthusiastically All exceeded their Quota and of the ten highest salesmen half were servicemen One of them was at the very top with respect to percentage of objective achieved One thing that greatly facilitated the workof the salesmen was thefact that with more bond conscious Unfortunately after the last war all bond holders did not realize that there is big difference in the value of bonds according to the security behind them and some suf fered at the hands of high pressure sales men who sold very inferior issues just be cause they were bonds MWTAlthllTUomihiO6f Canadabonds are investments of the highest quality and the personmwhol holds onto them

dustry but politics They have fought good and they may be said They have labor development Similar more and more fight have won the war won it chiefly through the strikc weapon But having won the war and secured full recognition many of the union leaders still go on fight ing and using the old Weapon of the strike It seems that they still regard industrialists and employ crs generally as the cucmy of all working people if not of so lt would perhaps be unfair to blame the recent epi demic of strikes on trade unions generallyfor it appears that many of these disputes have been pro cipitated by unions and irresponsible agitators This is reported to be the case rte garding the dock strikes in Eri tain As for the recent strisz in the United States and Canada the Labor Review organ of the Cana
