Port Of Great Work Done This is Red Cross month Although the Red Cross is probably the bestknown hu manitarian organization in the world there are still many who have very little idea of the extent of its work Should therebe full realization of what the Red Cross does then it could be expected that the necessary funds to do the job would be forthcoming without any need for an appeal being made In Barrie the Red Cross branch is member of the United Appeal and its annual campaign for fun to carry on the work will be part of that drive in October But just the same citizens at this time need be reminded of the job being done daily by Canadian Red Cross The Canadian Red Cross has been serving Canada and the world since 1900 More than two million Canadians volun teer their time and effort to serve in some voluntary capacity for Red Cross Its effort is extremely diversified both in Canada and throu hout the world Over 287000 people all ages took part in Canadian Red Cross water safety ser vices and rojects last year Nearly 28 0001Canaillans borrowed thousands of sickroom supplies from Red Cross Loan Cupboards maintained in 584 communit ies across the nation last year This is free service Since 1947 Canadians have donated more than five million bottles of blood to the Canadian Red Cross free blood transfusion service To meet the de mantis of Canadian hospitals Red Cross must

are but some of the services rendered by the Canadian Red Cross Ot NatiOn essarily ugly service stations serving as corporate symbols seeking public favor He claims that across Canada there is evidence that we have not learned to build cities of beauty and order which can compete with the Maya Indian cities of nearly 2000 years ago Mr Maclennan is quite correct in his findings our cities for the most part just grew and they grew along the lines of commerce rather than beauty Even the energetic work of the modern town planners will not be effective for years in removing the ugliness we have creat ed It is well to point out these facts that presentday oyesores may not be repeated Other Editors Views pens are economic legal and psychologic al Psychological in that people have be come more or less accustomed to wage in creases Legal in that the unions are ex presst granted monopoly power Econ omic in that such power exercised through industrywide wagefixing and nationwide strikes is heavybludgeon held over the whole economy Management of course operates und er tight le al restrictions The merest sus picion of ndustry collusion or pricefix ing is pounced upon by Washington And the realities of quickening competition at home and from overseas impose in creasing restraint on price decision For all their faults managements do not have the monopoly power to compel consum ers or investors to choose their products Given the political influence of the un ions its not surprising that politicians draw polite picture of an evenly balanc ed collective bargaining process But they would be better to explain why reallife bargaining is so onesided POCKET PROBLEMS Cleveland Plain Dealer An inventive tailor comes up Mike mans suit containing nineteen pockets thus making it

the Eritisfi govern ment and the six countries of the Common Market on Brit ains application to join that body are not going well Be ports from Brussels indicate that they are becoming more and more deeply involved on certain points and are indeed floundering without any real Progress being made While no official statements have been made by Edward Heath and Christopher Soama regarding their recent talks in Brussels on agricultural and Common wealth problems it is known that the differences revealed at these talks were so deep that things have almost reached an impasse Bnissels reports indicate that the gulf between Britain and the six Common Market coun tries on the providing of safe guards for British agriculture and trade with Commonwealth countries has widened rather than being narrowed down While another meeting at minis terial level is to be held on March 22 it is not expected that much advance towards an agreement will have been made by that dateu OFFICIALS WORKING Meanwhile teams of officials are trying to work on the pro posals made byBritain and the counterproposals of the Common rk countries These experts discussing such problems as common form policy guarantees for produc ers and Commonwealth food im ports are finding fresh difficul ties and complications arising at every point The plea made by Christopher Sopme Brit ainsa minister of agriculture that Ihc British government should retain the right to help this countrys farmers if their discussions standards of living are threat ened does not fit in with Come mon Market ideas The six ECM countries are opposing any such safeguards The ECM group is also insist ing that the present system of Commonwealth rences particularly in to stuffs should be terminated not later than 1959 It is taking the same attitude towards Britains claim for wyear changeover per iod for British agriculture The Common Market transition per iod is fixed as sevenandahalf years and they wish to lie Bri tain down to the same period CONCESSIONS NEEDED it is certain that if the nego tiations are not to founder com pletely there will have to be concesslons on both sides The Common Market six refuse to consider transition period of 12 years for Britain The only basis on which compromise is likely lies in arguing the whole range of farm products and bargaining for staggered periods of time for bringing each one within the schedule of Common Market agricultural policy Even if this were poss ible Britain would have to make some concessions which might involve Its relations with Commonwealth countries One thing stands out in the The Common Mar ket countries are determined that there will be no concessions to take care of the special agri cultural problems of Canada New Zealand and Australia Their View is that when the Common Market system is in fullswing they will have to be placed on exactly the same ba sis as all other foreign loudex porting countries With all these complications the British governments hopes for any early agreement for en try into the Common Market are gradually but surely fading away almost In line disappear ing point Cliiks cnriy Scouting days

taxis appeared about 1910 and just two years later Mr Wheeler decided that taxis would be his career He has fond memories of the early days Thlse Vinot automobiles went around like juggernauts over the cobblestones and dirt up to 20 miles an hour he re calls They frightened horses and if they didnt frighten peo ple the rates did The lowest rate was 30cent drop fare and 30 cents mile during the quiet afternoon hours At night it was 50 and 50 Night driving was precarious with kerosene lamps for head lights and every murky yard ahead potential hazard The rough streets and tires hard as iron were enough to jar your teeth loose said Mr Wheeler When you got bogged down in winter it looked per manent Some people would even jump out in panic though Im not sure to this day whether it was fear of the ride or of the cost gt He had some troublesome pas scngers such the lanky youth who flaggedim down and then jammed him In the back with hard object whie remembered an old trick another driver

Infection 0i Nerve By JOSEPH MOLNER Dear Dr Molnar My husband has had Ihhglu for several months and although he has not been to doctor he has been told by several people that there is nothing to be done but wait for them to heal Others hue told inc about people who have gnne to the doctor on were cured In few weeks In this modern day and age surely something has been dis covered to take care of them shingles Is virus Infection nerveand even In these times we know almost nothing about curing virus infections although we can prevent some of them with vaccines In shingles we can do migth little to cure an attack except to support general health Th Is Important we also can give medication to relieve the pain and this too Is important Dear Dr Molner Id like your comments on reducing system that claims you dont have to count calories lily hus band is fattyabout 75 pounds above average and we about him We tried to induce him to get his weight within annual limits So have doctors Nothing works He just likes to eat1 The best can say for the notion of not counting calories is that the counting doesnt mean anythinghut the number of calories you consume cer tainly matters So why try to kid ourselves Sometlmcs it seems the only way to get an obese man to reduce is for eventsconcerning his healthto scare the day hghts out of him recently talked to man who joined reducing class at hospital and went down from 200 pounds to 130 ill simple explanation ate ex actly what they told me to eat and nothing else found that eating lots of celery helped was the only man in the class And was the only person who reduced Dear Dr Mother How many of the strongest sleeping pills are considered an overdose My friend says 20 and say to MBS The things people worry aboutl But your inquiry rascs useful point Ive been tryan for years to explain that the dosage of any drug must be the nmount that fits the patients needs Whats right for one person isnt exactly right for another So for lomo people one strong sleeping pill would be an overdose for anotlier perhaps enouib But tolet alone 20 wouid be an overdose for any body dont necessarily rrean fatal overdose since some people might live through such an amount especially if they received prompt medical care But either would be extremely dangerous Dear Dr Molnar recently read that honey is the purest of all foods Would it be detrlmcm ta to anyone suffering from phlabitis 0r hardening of the arteries The article also stated that dlabetlcs can take honey where they cant sugar Does this mean it is at fatten ing in itself Mrs get me than bit tired of faddlsts claiming that this food or that is purest What does it mean Nothing newly dug potato is 100 per cent pure potato An apple is we per cent apple and an egg is all egg Theyre all absolutely pure foods However can see no possible reason why honey should harm anyone with phlebltls hardening arteries or anything else It it perfectly good food contaln ing great deal of sugar The remark about diabetes however is dangerous Diabet ics must keep their sugar intake law no matter what the source and that include the sugar in honey Honey is just as fatten ing or anything also containing sugar and its loaded with it BIBLE THOUGHT The trying of your faith worketh paIIcnceJames 13 only that faith is real which cat endure the tests of mint il QUEENS PARK Some Memberslike To End Fall Session By JON OHEARN TORONTOThere is move on by private memhers on the government side to do away with the fall sessions started two years ago They probably wont have any luck this year at least For while your observer wouldnt give odds he would take beta that the government is going to be very anxious for fall session at which it will introduce an expanded program and possibly supplementary budget if the Robarts government had to go to the country now on its present program and the budget it has brought down this winter you can say almost cer tainly what would happen to it it would go down to defeat it knows this or at least senses iIas well as anyone NEED NEW POLICY It knows and has known that it is going to have to come out with new policies and new ap proach And not having had time to develop them yet and as re sult having had to present an essentially standpat budget it knows that over the next months it will be dropping in public opinion Presumably it will want to start correcting this as soon as possible The summer months should give it the breathing space it has needed to get program worked out and off the mark And presumably it will want to get this before the public as soon as possible There might be strategists who would disagree with this They would contend that tho governmant will and should hold off until very close to elec tion time which would mean next winters session Their argument would be that the strong impact at the and would register better and that there wouldnt be the opportu nity for opposition criticism that earlier action would pre sent WONT GO ALONG However there are two rea sons to behave that the govern ment wont go along with thil thinking One of them is that it has realized for some time that it needs new identity is new image with the public That the PC party with the change in administrations must resell itself And there hardly would be time to do convincing job on this during the few months be tween winter session and spring election The other is that Premier Roe barts gives the impression that he wont be excessively politi cal in his considerations That he will be more of type to do what he decides is neces sary and let the chips fall where they may CANADIAN GAS Canadian gas companies oper ate up to 30000 miles of natural gas pipelines HUBERT ordering him to turn into lane Yeah you can sit there If
