Those who wishfully think that paying politicians more will make them better representatives, are putting the cart before the horse. Let the politicians prove they are worth more money, and graâ€" duate the rate of pay in relation to their value. That is the method of private business and no other way is intelligent. At‘s the statement of a new mayor of a Canadian town as reportâ€" ed in the local weekly newspaper. We don‘t know this particular Mr. Mayor. But let us be thankâ€" ful that there are men of definite opinion who have convictions and some confidence in themselves. With all their dangers, egotism, conceit, domineering ways and error, they are still refreshing oppoâ€" sites to "meâ€"tooism" and the "I think I can" rather than "I will". While the quality of an employee either in private business or government should be in relation to the amount of remuneration he receives, we all know there are many in government holding wellâ€" paying posts who could not even hold a good job in a private busiâ€" ness. That a man in private business must at least to a great extent justify his salary, goes without saying. Private business has no unâ€" ending supply of tax money to draw on. It must make a profit through the energy and intelligence of the employee. If the profit is not made, then the business ceases to exist. Many MP‘s do not even make an effort to 'atrtrend the meetings and sessions necessary to the administration of the country. They play golf or pretend they are sick, while of course, still drawing their Where a man in private life has been earning ten thousand dollars a year, then it can beaccepted that he has sufficient knowâ€" ledge to warrant at least the same rate of pay as a government memâ€" ber. Where another man has been playing hockey or basebail and has been elected because he became popular with the spectators, then his worth to the country is dubious. At least this is true until he has some years to gain experience. (From The Financial Post) ‘"Most citizens are thinking toward better things in 1954, and I believe they elected me because 1 am qualified to do the job." There‘s no hedging here. No "if", "and", "but", "perhaps" or ‘"maybe". When Canadian tourists caterers honestly go after Canadian tourist business with the intention of giving Canadians the same service they have been offering Americans, then possibly Canada will become a country for Canadian travel . . . not before. While we do have some good men in the Canadian Government most of those that do amount to something are men who have made their own way successfully before entering politics. The rest have chosen politics as a means of making a soft living and have neither knowledge nor ability to maintain the same standard of living if emâ€" ployed by private enterprise. Canada has a government large enough to administer to a counâ€" try ten times our size and population. If all members are given raises in relation to their supposed importance as has the MP‘s then this country will never be able to support them. Somerset Maugham, who was 80 last week, wrote a book some 16 years ago. He miscalculated his lifespan and called it "The Sumâ€" ming Up." But in it he said: "I do not much care if people agree with me. Of course I think I am right, otherwise 1 should not think as I do, and they are wrong, but it does not offend me that they should be wrong. Nor does it greatly disturb me to discover that _ , my judgment is at variance with that of the majority. I have a certain confidence in my instinet." So good luck to the mayor. May he, with his courage and convictions, have the everâ€"fleeting good fortune of sometimes being right. Whenever one of these outfitters are questioned as to their yearnâ€" ing for the almighty dollar, they tell you with a perfectly straight face that they only have a very short season to make money in and they must make the "mostest the fastest". For this they can not be entirely blamed. Everyone is after a fast buck if they can make it, but there is something wrong with the picture so far as resort owners are concerned. "Canadian travel is not for visitors from other countries only," a Royal Bank Monthly Letter states. We agree with that, but does the tourist industry? We have seen too many tourist camps, particularly the expensive ones, which caâ€" tered exclusively to the American trade and would not accept Canaâ€" dian business because they felt they could not get enough out of There are other camps who actively agitate for Canadian busiâ€" :r':’f 2&,‘: ness but only during the offâ€"season when there are not enough |from the i Americans in this country to make a potful for the resort keeper. performers. With few exceptions, after their season is over, they lock up camp and head for their own holiday in the southern States, Mexico or any one of the many places where they will be catered to for a change. They have the money to afford these things, short seasons and all. How many business men can do the same? Canada should be primarily for Canadians. We are at present having enough trouble keeping it even for all Canadians, what with this little township and the other trying to reserve all hunting and fishing rights for the residents of their townships. The Americans have done a Grade A job of depleting their own country to the point where there is little fish or game available for the ordinary sportsâ€" man. They are also doing the same thorough job right here in this country, aided and abetted by the present government who spend several millions advertising dollars yearly telling them to "come and get it while they last". That our fish and game is on the downward track is even acceptâ€" ed by government officials, but the government and the resort ownâ€" ers prefer to sell what is left to the highest bidder. The thought that more money may induce a better type of men to run for Parliament is straight wishful thinking. While we do not doubt that Canadian resort owners are looking toward more Canadian patronage, it is probably only because some areas have been depleted to‘the point where the Americans will not frequent them any longer. 4 EXPERT EYE CARE PAGE TwWO Editorial Comment BETTER VisiON GLAsses 17 King St. West _ Walper Hotel Block Dial 2â€"1971 Canada for Canadian Travel? ? ther Editors Say m-r-.upusa:.u-uadfi.%; 5 Fe Tc Wermie ow Poees es caccerme o PrOSGNnt SONQ member of the Cansdian Weekly Newspapers Association and of the Ontarioâ€"Quebec Newspaper Association. e THE BEAN PRINTING & PUBLISHING CO. .

C. Row, presiâ€" \dent and general manager, Chrysâ€" {ler Corporation of Canada, Limitâ€" Impact Wide "Today, all industry must live and do business with not one, but several, publics," Mr. Row said. "It must be sensitive to the reâ€" quirements and demands of them all." "These "publics" he listed comprised employees, citizens of communities where industries opâ€" erate, customers, suppliers and shareholders. "We cannot imitate the ostrich, stick our head in the sand and asâ€" sume that nobody will know what we are up to," he continued. “AYy industry such as a major motor car manufacturer, makes such widespread impact upon the ecoâ€" nomic life of the country that it must, of necessity, provide the public at large with full and acâ€" curate information concerning its activities." Car Operation Costly Referring to the automobile as a major factor in the country‘ economic life, Mr. Row quote} from a recent newspaper editorial to show that Canadians spend, in buying, operating, maintaining and insuring their cars, about a quarter of their total income; that buyers of cars paid more in one year in sales, excise and gasoline tax than the total income tax paid by persons earning $10,000 a year and less; and that the value of cars manufactured in a single year was greater than the value of all the wheat produced in Canâ€" ada. Speaking to delegates anendinq the Canadian Managing Editors Conference, the Chrysler of Canâ€" ada president praised the press for what he termed its fair and impartial reports of his firm‘s acâ€" tivities. He laid stress upon the important role that the newspaâ€" pers play as interpreters to the public of events in the industrial field that exert a stronf impact upon Canada‘s economic life. The Chrysler president exâ€" pressed strong optimism concernâ€" ed Ceramics production is a key industry in Indonesia, but until reâ€" cently this country had to import quality ceramics for dinnerware. Thgse imports have dropped, however, now that Indonesians have learned to produce similar quality wares, but lower in price than the foreign product. This was made possible by introducing new production methods with the cooperation of United Nations technical assistance. Photo shows ceramics worker in the village of Plered.
