The National Motor Show The sweeping success which attended the opening of the National Motor Show in Toronto is encouraging to those whose interests are tied up with the automobile industry. The show itself is an ambitious venture, a venture planned with the main objective of stimulating interest in the purchase of new cars. Manufacturers are so impressed with the car values being offered this year that they are welcoming the opportunity of placing their products before the public, and the fact that so many thousands of people crowded into the motor show on Saturday indicates that the venture was well-timed. There is so much of Canada's industrial life dependent upon the automobile indus- ¢ try that anything which tends to increase its production has a widespread effect. During the last two or three years, the buying of cars has fallen off tremendously, so much so that automobile manufacturers are inclined to believe that the time has come for heavy replacements. This is the theoretical side of the situation. The prac- tical side, however, rests in bringing the buyers and the sellers together, and the National Motor Show is an ideal means of attaining that end. Judging by the inter- est which was shown in the 1932 models of cars at the show on its opening day, sales will be stimulated to a remarkable degree, and the whole country will reap the benefit. : Naturally, Oshawa is more than inter- ested. The General Motors of Canada, Limited, is playing a large part in the show, by its wonderful display of its vari- ous makes of cars. This exhibit is bound to attract buyers, and one can only hope that the results will be more than gratify- ing to the company, for the simple reason that whatever benefits are derived by the company will be passed on to the workers of Oshawa in the form of increased em- ployment. So naturally, Oshawa is greatly interested in the motor show. The Conference Keynote Speaking, apparently, as the spokesman of the government, Hon. Donald Suther- land, minister of national defence, in an address at Sarnia, set a new keynote for Canada's attitude at the Imperial Economic Conference. One of the difficulties which many people have seen in the general tariff attitude of the present government was that the government appeared anxious to keep all other countries from selling goods in Canada, while at the same time trying to find markets abroad for Canadian pro- ucts. The address of the Hon. Donald Suther- land shows that this idea has been dis- pelled from the minds of the members of the government, and that they are now resigned to the fact that all trade must be reciprocal. "We cannot expect to get a lot of things unless we are satisfied to give _ something in return," he said. In other words, the government is now convinced that, if Canada expects to sell goods to other parts of the British" Empire, she must be prepared to buy their goods from them. . Trade cannot be one-sided. There must be give-and-take. A country which tries to reserve its home market exclusively for goods manufactured and produced within its own boundaries will find the doors of other countries shut in its face when it seeks export trade. That is exactly what has happened to the United States since the Hawley-Smoot tariff came into effect. That is why Canada's export trade has fallen off to such a large extent gince the Canadian tariffs were raised E eighteen months ago. Protection may be a sound tariff policy if a country is able to provide a sufficiently large market for all its people can produce. . But Canada is not in a position to provide that market, so there must be an outlet for surplus products. There are strong hopes "that the Imperial Economic conference will ~ a heartful of sympathy for provide large outlets, and now that the government, through the Hon. Donald Sutherland, has announced its recognition of the foundation principle that we must he willing to buy before we can sell, there are brighter hopes for the success of the conference . Every mother and father, too,--wil] have Col. and Mrs. Lindbergh, : As Liquor Consumption Drops In the annual report of the Ontario Liquor Control Board issued recently, there are several rather significant points. The outstanding one though is that the consumption of spirits, both domestic and imported, showed a sharp decrease in the past year and even beer consumption drop- ped due no doubt to the depression, Native wine showed a slight increase. The sale of permits dropped over 60,000 and the whole business done by the board is greatly cur- tailed. The net profits show a decrease of over six million dollars, nearly six and a half in fact, but that is really not the significant thing because prices were raised twice last year. The really important fig- ures that are the ones dealing with the number of bottles sold. The total number of bottles of spirits sold was 7,887,834, which was a decrease of 1,868,262 bottles from last year. Of course, the total number of bottles sold is large but it must be .re- membered that a good deal of that liquor is bought by visitors as, for instance, there were some 8,000 liquor permits sold to tourists. Generally speaking, it is a fair showing, for it must be remembered there was a a reduction last year also in the total sales and profits of the commission. The Liquor Board feels, though, that the profits are still high and will probably re- main high for a time despite the steady shrinking in business, The net«profit for last year was something 'over $8,000,000, but the board paid the provincial treasurer $10,000,000 as the extra cash was on hand and was not needed owing to the shrink- age of business. The report on the whole that there has been a marked decrease in the consumption of liquor, particularly of the hard variety in Ontario during the past year. It may be, as already noted, that people have not as much money as they did when the liquor stores were first open- ed, but it might also be that temperance workers by means of their educational cam- paign are beginning to see the light of ultimate victory. Education is a greater power than financial depression in fighting the legalized liquor traffic. It is also a greater power than legislation. Temper- ance workers everywhere should remember this fact and direct their efforts accord- ingly through the most effective channels.

Two days ago, Mr. Stevens, minister of trade and com- merce, made the front pages again with the news that for the ten months of the current fiscal year, which ends March 31, the favorable balance had reached twenty-four million dollars. That is goad news, one supposes. It seems that we have to have a favorable balance in order to maintain our credit. abroad, which, of course, is essential, And yet one begins to wonder whether the price we pay for this favorable balance is worth what we get. What we get is not usually disclosed in the tavorable balance bulletins, They never refer to the total trade of the country, which has been virtually reduced by half. As a matter of sobering fact, Canada's total world trade has declined more than any other coun- try in the world, with two exceptions, These two arc. Brazil and Taiwen.
