The meetings bere well-conducted, speakers were given a hearing, and the electors were thus Well informed before the time came to vote.

At one of the elec- meetings, a speaker referred to them he University of the People." It uld be still more apt to call them a train- ¢ school for citizenship, for, at their tings, there is a great opportunity for p study of civic affairs and matters re- ing to the welfare of all the people of a nity. The average man, we are to admit, has not had the opportunity oroughly study the public affairs of | community, With active ratepayers' gociations, that lack would be remedied, d in this way a worth-while service mld be rendered. year 1932 is young yet. ppayers' associations do not need to jit until there is something to condemn nd criticize before getting into action. yw should be functioning now, holding as often as possible, and discuss. civic affairs, not in a critical spirit, but desire to educate the ratepayers and gtors, and to offer constructive sugges- for the guidance of those who are rged with the responsibility of handling g city's business, But the petin Supplying Water begins to look as if the medical health has the advantage of the Public s Commission in the controversy as } what action is to be taken in the case f indigent families unable to pay their er rates, has full authority to turn off water in } of unpai on in a number of cases, althougi, in to the commission, everything le has been done to prevent undue hip in the case of families obviously to pay. he latest contribution to the contro- however, rather changes the com- ion of things.

That is attitude for the French people to take, if they are to look at the question purely selfish standpoint, and one can hardly place much blame on France for that attitude. One doubts that Ger- many is telling the truth in saying that she cannot pay, and France will certainly have to be shown conclusively that further payments are impossible before accepting the situation with good grace, It is an unfortunate prelude to the vari- ous economic conferences which are com- ing. The most that one can expect is that the conferences will look at the big ques- tion of the stabilizing of the world's whole financial structure, rather than at the narrower aspect of the interests of individ- ual countries, If that broad outlook can be assured, there may be some hope of saving the situation. If not, then one can hardly foresee what will come next, Editorial Notes The Oshawa Choral Society made a splendid start on Sunday night, May it now grow .to a large enough organization to make it a real credit to the city of Osh- awa, Here again, the organizing and executive ability of Ross Mackinnon were a great factor in sending the society off to a splen- did beginning, The slackers are the well-to-do; in stores there are as many sales as ever hut of cheaper goods.~--Professor P. H, Nystrom, economist at Columbia U, I can't sit still, and I can't stand still,-- Robert Montgomery, film actor, What we have never been able to figure out is whether wallpaper manufacturers get their designs from Christmas neckties or Christmas necktie manufacturers get their designs from wallpaper.--Hank, St, Thomas Times-Journal, In an economy year, the first motion placed before the city council is one, which, if carried out, means an expenditure of money. Only one firm of engineering firm sub- mitted plans and specifications for the sewage disposal plant, With little likeli- hood of the scheme being carried out for some considerable time, other firms prob- ably figured they might as well save their money by not entering the contest, Other Editor's Comments SILVER AND CHINESE TRADE (Prof, T. E. Gregory, in the Spectator), The advocate of a "forward policy" for silver base their claims upon what they consider to Pe the disastrous consequences of this decline in the gold value of silver--which is, of couse, equivalent to a rise in the silver value of gold, For the fall in the gold .value of silver is equivalent, in a country in which silver acts as the standard of value, to a decline in the international purchasing power of the local currency, But , , , it is not the fall in silver which has in general checked Eastern trade, but the declin. in world prices, of which the fall in silver is only one part, Moreover, the fall in the gold value of silver leads to consequences the reverse of unfavourable to silver produgts, So long as Chinese prices' (which are silver prices) have not risen as fast as the gold value of silver has fallen, this very ract encourages silver ex- ports to China, and causes rising prices there and prevents that distracted country from suffering, in addition to invasion and banditry and misgovern- ment, the evils of deflation as well, ODD KIND OF PEACE (Hamilton Spectator) The latest move of Gandhi is to appeal from his prison to the Christians of India to support him in his struggle, which, he says, is "essentially" The appeal is made to those who are loyal to the "Prince of Peace", but since Gandhi i$ now turn- ing to the Christian Bible in the interests of his faction, he may be reminded of the passage con- demning those who cry peace where there is no eace, If it is peace that Gandhi wants he can have it for the asking, BITS OF HUMOR NO HEARSAY The witness was no longer youthful, and the young barrister thought it would be to his advan tage to get her rattled, "And now, madam," he said, "I must ask you a personal question.
