iiiarric Examiner Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 16 Bayfield Street Barrie Ontario Walls Publisher Brian Slaigbt General Manager MONDAY JANUARY II Ila Pagl Chamber Presents Views On Canada Social Welfare Some observations on socialism and social welfare are contained in News Let ter official publication of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce The writer as serts that the Canadian Chamber of Commerce stands for liberty and indi vidual freedom totally directed econ omy is incom atible with this freedom and the Cham er is opposed to true so cialism as well as communism Even though country makes progress under collectivism it is always at the expense of personal freedom What is needed now more than any thing else in the world is fuller under standing and preciation of freedom and all its imp cations We must fall in love again with freedom We must understand it and believe in it and do sire it so strongly that nothing can shake our purpose to maintain and expand it This is positive philosophy Namecalling and witchhunting are themselves denials of freedom It isto be hoped that there will be no divmion among those who recognize the need for slid the true worth of freedom The most effective way to fight communism and socialism is to make our own stems of democracy and capitalism forth before men so that they will be immed iately recognized as superior to any op posing systems There ap ears to exist great deal of confusion th respect to the terms social ism and social welfare Inevitany when the Canadian Chamber of Commerce op poses Socialism there are those who claim that the Chamber is opposed to social welfare This is slm ly not the case In the alloy approve at the last annualmee declaration made it quite clear that the Chamber is in fav or of wellbalanced program of social welfare of scope consistent with what the economy can afford without damag ing the enterprise system which roduces the tax revenue to support we are pay merits The Chamber opposes socialism which means state ownership of the means of production and distribution Such govem merit ownership and control reduces the freedom of the individual and makes him merely cog in the machinery of the State While socialism and communism are not the same thin Khrushchev him self hss said that soc alism is the vesti bule to communism Social welfare how ever is vastly different thing No one is opposed to social welfare It is only reasonable however to suggest that if you contract to spend more than the ec onomy can produce then you run into debt and run into the danger of destroy ing the system which makes true social welfare and security possible gOur Income Tax System Canadas income tax system is one of the most severe in the world in trying to level out mankind and share the wealth Enterprises which create employment and wealth are those which are organized and constantly maintained by people with substantial accumulated capital Where is the new crop of business creators ing to come from to provide the dynamics of our economy in the next generation The Financial Post asks Between violent ly sharetheweaith death duties which so much diminish probable family inherit ance and violently sharethewealth in come taxes which demolish hope of capi tal accumulation save by fortunate specu lation young Canadians on whom our country could otherwise depend for lead ership and vitality in our economic ac tivity in the decades ahead are now be ing condemned to kind of economic paralysis We are fully aware of all the valid arguments for social justice of the oliticai problems of si nificant tax re orm But the fact shou be faced that our tax system punishes the energetic that it is creating most serious national problem for the decades ahead that it mostseriously diminishes the amount of Canadian business which in future will be controlled by Canadians It should also be recognized that our present tax system makes it easy and enticing for politicians to spend our mi1 lionsin ways which please them But if Canada in coming decades is to retain suitable degree of economic pros perity and if it is to retain its present system of individual initiative as the dy namic of its economy drastic reexam ination of our whole approach to taxa tion in the national interest and not just the interest of any particular group of individualsis urgent Other Editors Views PEDESTRIAN MOSCOW Wall Street Journal We read with interest that Moscows edestrians are ignoring traffic lights Waik and Dont Walk signs with reckless abandon Indeed so many cit izens are getting run over that major educational campaign is being planned to persuade them that it pays to observe the signals We suppose what makes playing rou lette with the lights such popular game among Muscovites is that the choice between Walk and Dont Walk is one of the few free ones they have But our guess is that the pedestrian problem will be solved rapidly as soon as the Moscow authorities tumble to the fact that their citizens are actually emulating decadent capitalist Americans PLACE OF NEWSPAPERS Oshawa Times One of Canadas most important ex ports is newsprint and since it is nec essary to have

tbsnln dtbl findings are applicable in large measure to Canada In Foreword Charles Lipscomb Jr president of the Bureau of Adver tising Inc ANPA states The research shows that newspapers are big that they enjoy unique position in the daily life of the people Most import ant for the advertiser it shows that newspaper advertising shares the in timate immediate personal character of the paper itself that people accept it as factual and downtoearth More than with any other medium they feel it speaks to them Some of the facts brought out are Daily newspapers are read in nine out of ten homes in cities and suburbs Telo out of three persons read the newspaper at habitual time and the paper is picked up 24 times by each reader Of particular interest is the authent icnted record that 11 per cent of readers read their newspaper thoroughly page by page and that 49 per cent state they would feel quite lost without it Of significance to merchandisers is the re port that four out of five newspaper readers like to look at the ads even when they dont plan on buying Commenting on the survey Editor and Publisher of New York weekly magazine of the newspaper fraternity has this to say The most important and significant part of these comments and their ratings was this 1328 per cent of those interviewed said news papers tell me where to buy things This was almost 30 percentage points above the ratings same statement Television came in third andmagl azines fourth FOR LACK OF FOOT Hamilton Spectator filmis being made of the life of Lawrence desert hero of the First World War The title

towards corporate farm ing For some time now we have been watching the form be come more and more big busi ness The gatejas been opened in fruit and vegetables and to some extent in dairying In these fields the farm owned or controlled by the corporation has become reality And all agricultureands ernmerithas been watching to fie how rapid the growth will FORCED IN Nobody is sure just what problems this growth might cause for government Underlying all is the question of just how much government should interfere Whether it should try and pro tect the individual farmer if this protection might be unccn nomic Whether it has any right to interfere at all We seem now tobe getting an answer at least for this question And it is thatgovarnment will have no choice It will be forced in name noumr Depending on your immediate interestyou have been more or premium price less aware that the government has been using pressure to re organize the dairy industryu The ins and outs of the situa tion are very intricate and wont be discussed here Let it merely be said that un derlying the whole difficulty is the threat of corporate farming Individual milk producers now are organized lunch way that there is not equity for all The fluid milk men get The concen trated producers get much less It is not said so in so many words but government efforts are really directed at share thewealth program among all producers If there is not this it fears theu conditions will be wide open for corporate takeover in the entire dairy industry QUICK cannon Why does it interfere Becauseit can see great so cial disruption if it doesnt And not onlyin the farm in books entific study of caves dustryilself But also among the small dairies It can see the possibility of almost overnight change where the smalldairy industry in the province would be wiped out This could ruin families and evenamaii communities And it feels it is the duty of govarm merit to prevent this That is the real background story in milkwhich promises to be controversial for some time to come And anyway Mr Anthony has not written book about politics but about the events that concom ed him of his friends and ac quaintances of his travels and of his effort to understand an other way of life Tunisia is country of con trasts and variety and the author visits each area of Tunisia He starts with the city of Tunis and roceeds to the villages of Si bouSaid and Hammnmment then ruln ed and modern Carthage the island of Djerba Kslrwsn and the desert There is an air of mystery and romance about Tunisia which makes it most inter esting country to read about SAMOAN INTERLlbe By lllARIE TISDALE MARTIN Mrs Martin Canadian writes about the two years she spent on the South Sea Island of Samoa with her husband doctor in tropical diseases Because of introductions from an anthropologist friend who had lived in Samoa ear lier the Martins were well received by the Chiefs and is landers They were eagerly welcomed into these families and also to the village feasts and celebrations The Martins lived in Pago Page where the climate was seldom oppressive because of the trade winds The days were often hot and humid but not like Canadian city dur ing heat wave The even lngs were delightful The author tells the reader of Samoan life she describes the elaborate social systems and the Samoan tradition of concealing rather than reveal ing or sharing facts There is also description of the food and drink that was consumed at the daylong banquets where the talking Chiefs speak for hours The many experiences of the author

Ailment Hy DB JOSEPH MOLNER Dear Dr Homer In there any cure for colitis and the constipation that accompanies IL caused by the bland diet that we must eat tun asking not only for myself but for two friends who have the some trouble We an in our mid die SolMn This is one of many such let tersfoi colitis Is most common ailment Before go farther must make this first fact clear Col itis often is not single spe cific ailment or disease It is term used loosely to cover multitude of troubles it is quite possible that lllrs lil and her two friends may have three different types At the same time they may all be receiving similar or even identical treatment Does this sound odd Perhaps so But road on hope to sat Isfy your mindand very likon make your colon more comfort able too suppose the fairest general definition of colitis might simply be colon that mi behaves There is colitis as rcsult of infections including nmebio dysentery and variety of germs that can cause ulcera tion and sometimes bleeding Usually there is fever in such cases Diarrhea or constipa tion may be present Colicky pains are common This is more true ionn oi colitis Another frequent and dis agreeable formis mucus colitis featured by passage of large amounts of mucus with the stool This is found chiefly in nervous women and cum it tum their nerves becomn even worse from worrying Food allergy may be factor but usually there is profound emotional upset as well Whether by use of sedatives tranquilizers philosophy 105k horse sense or psychotheropl if the nerves can be brought back to truly comfortable placid state major part of the med ical battle has been won But its not niwaysueafy its the pa en un thewilalgsic facts certainly helps Still another form often called nervous colitis is ba sically disturbance in the ner vous control of the colon or bowel The colon may be no duly lrritable and go into spasm at the slightest provocation Or the colon may be Lazy or technically an otonlo colon or some entirely differ ent cause may be doing the mischief Diverticulitis tendoo mctriosls infected appendix or disease of the pelvic organs may simulate the symptoms of colitis Citing these example is nec essary beloro we can really talk sensibly about how to get rid of colitis So well continue this tomor NW Dear Dr Molnar am 65 and long past the change of life For the last year have been spotting

scraping is es sential to find out whether the tissue of the uterus is healthy REPORT FROM 11x Change In Coinage Expected By By MclNTYRE HOOD Special London England Correspondent for The Barrie Examiner LONDONIt is now taken fairly well for granted that within the next three orfour years Britain will have new form of coinage and currency based on the decimal system The government has already in principle made its decision in favor of the change The committee of inquiry which it has set up under the chair manship of the Earl of Hals bury is to report on the best form of new coinage how and when the change could be made effective and how much it would cost the nation It is not likely however that the change will be made be fore ices When the change does come it will automatically do away with something which has been source of annoyance to the British people for great many years That is the use of the long outmoded guinea as sum of money in fixing prices charging fees and de termining rentals of houses and other property Even be fore decimal coinage was mooted there was campaign to abolish tbeguinea as sum of money The gold coinnf that name disappeared well over century ago But in spite of the fact that there was no such item of legal tender as guinea the use of the term hasperslsted MEANS EXTRA SHILLING Glllneflln value is equal to 21 shillings and when quot ed in the pricing of any art icle simply meansadding one shilling to the pound in the view of those who want it abolished Their battle cry is Down with this outdated guinea nonsense Let every one be paid in pounds and shillings like the honest work ing man The guinea is an offence against the modern world and as such it must go Although the guinea no long or exists in legal tender bar risters architects accountants and other professional men including dentists and doctors still reckon their charges and submit their accounts in guineas or multiples of 21 shillings Piano lessons sur veyors face the rewards of

artiststhese are still find in the noble guinea scale ON DOWN THE SCALE In the stores of the country dresses coats suits furniture jewelry mink coats and long line of other articles can be seen in the windows priced in guineas And these addi tional shillings do mount up Twenty guineas equal £21 or an extra five per cent over the pound value That is pro bably why business and pro fessional peoplecling to this outmoded price tag which if it were given in even pounds would save the client or cus tomer that extra fiveper cent added by snobbish practice HISTORY OF THE GUINEA Guinea pieces first appeared in 1663 They were gold coins struck by the Royal Mint to the value then of 20 shillings for the use of the company of Royal Adventurers of Eng land trading with Africa They bore little elephant and were at once called guineas since they were in tended for the Guinea trade and were struck from Guinea gold By 1695 market fluctuations in gold values had raised the status of the guinea to an shillings but in December 1717 the value of guinea was permanently fixed at 21 shillings and it has rewarded recipients with that extra shilling ever since LAST ISSUE IN 1813 The last issue of guineas was made in 1313 and they were at that time silver coins Four years later there came the golden sovereign attractive but worth only 20 shillings But ever since the guinea as sum of money worth 21 shillings has survived in its Wide range of customary use and it will probably continue to be used until wBiitain moves to its decimal system of cur rency It will be difficult if not impossible to fit the guinea into any kind of decim ral system There will be some regrets of course mostly on the part of those who have had the benefit of that extra shilling on the pound like the agent to whom pay the rent for my home And there will be some complications as on the race courses where new name will have to be found for that historic race The zone Guineas It would not seem the same if it were called the 2100 pounds BIBLE THOUGHT The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show his might in be bnlf of those whose heart is blameless toward him II Chronicles 169 Man may
