barrio Examinrr Published by Canadian Newspaper United 16 Bayfield Street Barrie Ontario Walls Publisher Brixn Sleight General Manager MONDAY MARCH CIPI THE HONEYMOONERS Valid Complaint Concerns The Free Enterprise System defence of free enterprise in rail way operations comes from Crump president of Canadian Pacific Railway Company And what he says applies to to any business That the railways have unusual problems today is not in dispute and there are voices that suggest that the problems can be resolved by bringing all companies under government owner ship What Mr Crump says is but com mon sense yet in view of what some oth er opinion holds it needs to be repeated Railway nationalization does not solve railway problems It serves only to shove the roblems off onto someone else there ensuring that the basic issues will never be solved Canada has had some experience in this connection and it has not been en tirely happy one Admittedly there is bit of difference in government tak ing over group of bankrupt or near bankrupt lines Such is the background of the ONE and it served but to shift the troubles into the lap of the people To this extent it bears out what Mr Crump said The roblem of course is not private owners ip It is government intervention and regulation which prevents the rail ways from operating in sound busi nesslike manner They are forced to com pete in the world of transportation shackled by legislation while other car riers enjoy relative freedom It is not the state of the railways that needs to be changed so much as the conditions under which they are required to operate Mr Crump has valid complaint that railways cannot compete in the second half of the 20th century when they are required to meet work rules appropriate to the 1890s Because of the prevailing attitude railways are prevented from at taining greater productivity the only way in which higher wages can be borne Whether government action on the Macpherson commission report will lead to the changes needed to allow the rail ways to go forward remains to be seen but certainly if the country wants the railways to continue to serve drastic changes must be forthcoming Down Memory Lane

experiment means that 2000 new home are to be built in way which virtually dis pcnses with the traditional con structfon methods Instead of going up brick by brick the complelo shell of each house is being fabricated in only two operations This is done by pouring cun crete through hoseplpe into rendymade moulds which are set on the foundations After 21 hours the moulds arc remov ed leaving the entire bottom floor of the housu in position The bedroom floors which are nlw prefabricated are put into place and the moulds set up on them These moulds are again filled with concrete poured into em

from the skin is also in gcnernl way port of the skin The two problems in ahnrt apply to the some basis Dondruffls at making of dry akin of the scalp so in that way the dandruff and the dry lips are related For those reasons think youd do well to have the help of dermatologist who is specialist in problems related to the scalp the lips or some other part of the rather large area of skin that covers us all But in addition 1d point out these possibilities You may be sensitive to lipstick This hap pens often enough to he suspicious pnssibilityHChanglng to nonallergic type may help For an even better test why not use no lipstick at all for little while just to find out MAY BE NATURAL Second your lip dryness may be because you have naturally dry skin If so nothing that you rub on is going to change the kind of skin you have Third is file yearround trouble or does it appear mainly in the cold months7 If therlatter then perhaps you are not taking adequate pains to keep the air moist in your home Winter heating can dry house excessively unless steps are taken to keep humidity at suitably high level As to diet added vitamin sometimes helps the skin lips and scalp Dandruff is dry skin of the scalp gradually flaking off It might among other things be due to seborrheic derma titis or ailment of the tiny oll glands of the skin and thus be amenable to moderate medical treatmentwhich is why in the first place suggested that seeing dermatologist to start with might save you time Dear Dr Molncr We are two teenagers each 14 and have had our periods for about year and

Cost By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA Every Canadian worker labor for three week in each year to pay the na tlooal cost of n1mhcllc indul gencc Alcoholism is high price national luxury costing us about per cent of our Gross National Product and affecting one in every thirty adult Ca nadinnx There are some of the con cluxlonr which can be from tudy of speech which Dr Tynnrd Con servntlvc MP from Orlllla re cently Iurvoyed the human bnl nncc sheet and the mulllbllllon dollar cost of this mountlhg problem 111 ch might well be entitled wth his dramatic words What thirst What oostl It was of course the excesses which Dr Rynard reviewed Alcoholism is selftofu dlxcun 10 said It anks among causes of death of adult Canadians being exceeded by heart disease cancer makes and accidents He painted on that alcoholism is problem older than detailed history for the magnificent old Chinese civilization degenerated through its ruvngea untll by the year 1100 BC that country had become nation of paupcrs ruled by powerful class of pampered lords LISTS EFFECTS Dr Rynnrd listed the com mon effects of alcoholism as broken homer lllcglllmncy and disease criminal offenccx trof flc accidents illness and death absenteeism and our hidden army of half men who can work at only 50 per cent of their normal capacity The immense amount of thought and research which went into Dr Rynards preaen tetlon produced the staggering conclusion that the cost of nico hollsm to Canada is in excess of $500000000 each year The economic benefits from the bot tle total mere one quarter of that figure consisting of 0131 033000 paid In wages for the manufacture and rule of liquor $51400000 paid for the lngrc dlenfa of alcoholic monquo tum and gigantic yield of $457000000 in taxes to various levels of government There are some of the na tionalexpenrea caused by alco hol in the assessment of Dr Rynard In Ontario during 1900 nicolm played role in nine out cl every 10 cases of actual or ar tempted murder manslaughter and rape Some 40430 offences resulting from the use of liquor were charged resulting In con victlonx There were also 28490 convictions for violation of the Liquor Control Act Court colts legal fees and the expenses of imprisonment in such cases ex tended io croanannda level amount to tens of million of dollars ALCOHOL CUTS WORK One half of all roadlccldcnu are estimated to be caused by drivers who have been drink ing Alcohol sold DrRynnrd is thus involved in traffic and dents costing $145000000 and klllng about 2500 Canndlons each year To that cost must be added thelost coming bow er of the slaughtered clllzenl Some 2541 new alcoholics and 1545 repeaters were od mllted to hospitals in Canada for an average stay of so days in hospitals or public Institu tlons Adding those cared for in special or private institutions brings the bill up to 34000000 year very large cost 11 the loss of productivity by worker who are scrnl incapacitated mens fully or manually by alcohol that hidden army of halfmen which has its fifth column in every factory and office Finally there is the large ex pcnse generally born by tile communlty for social welfare work helping the children and the wives or even husbands who are the victims of an alco hollc Dr Rynards thoughtprovok Lug spccch pointed out these often overlooked byproducts of uncontrolled use of the bottle And by lndlrcllon as wed as
