strong recollections of The Sweet est Music This Side of Heaven dispensed by Guy and His Royal Cana dians and similar melodies by the original Glenn Miller aggregation and Paul we have listened with little joy to the rhythms of the beat generation Basically we suppose many of the present hit recordings have some melodi ous characteristics but these are com pletely overshadowed by the Beat which is overemphasized out of all pro portion and then distorted by a type of singing which is reminiscent of the noise produced by the Ancient Order of Cats holding a lodge meeting on the back A little brightness on the musical horizon has appeared with the work of The Beatles for they have shown talent for musical phrasing and the songs they have written and presented compare quite well with the

brochures from govern- t efficiency experts citing methods of cutting expenses and gaining production percentage of the involved but it appears that despite the work by management and employee to boost profits all around Ottawa gets on the scent and proceeds to chop off approximately per cent of the gains without getting the least bit involved in any of the work A letter posted on the bulletin board by the head of a large corporation ex plains to the employees Ottawas par Our suggestion plan continues to reward interested employees the sad part is that for every dollar we save through better methods and equipment the government takes over half without having done anything to earn it despite this what we can retain is worthwhile because cost reduction is a neverending battle if we are to stay in business After reading this we would suggest that it would be an excellent idea if gov ernment departments could get as inter ested in saving and efficiency of opera tion as they are constantly advising industry to do It would be interesting to discover what happened to the Report which had a few thought provok ing suggestions on the promotion of more efficiency in government Study and action on some of their own ideas might do much toward closing the gap and curtailing some of the expense involved in setting up commissions to streamline government overlapping and expendi
