Chamber of Commerce Election The 'election of directors for the Cham- her of Commerce has resulted in a happy combination of experienced directors and newcomers to the board being chosen to office. 'It is encouraging to note that such men as George Hart, A. G. Storie, R. S. Morphy and W. M. Gilbert, who have in the past given valuable service to the Chamber, and to the city, re-elected to office. 'And the three new men, Russell Storks, L. F. McLaughlin, and A. R. Alloway will bring new viewpoints to bear upon the problems which the board have to face. It was regrettable, perhaps, that the noard of directors is to lose the wise coun- sel and untiring services of Gordon D. Conant, who just failed to secure re-elec- tion. He has been one of the strong pillars of the Chamber of Commerce since its in- ception, having served as vice-president and president as well as a director. 'Yet he himself has been the first to recognize the need for new blood on the directorate, and his message following the election showed a true spirit, not only of good sportsmanship, but also of public. service. He will find consolation, however, in the fact that many other good citizens, capable of rendering able service to the community, also failed to be elected. The nominating committee did its work of selection well, and it was difficult indeed for the mem- bers to select, out of the twenty-one names selected, the seven to hold office as direc- tors for the next two years. With the election over, the Chamber of Commerce will now be able to prosecute its policies vigorously. There are large problems to be considered, and, with a membership keenly interested and looking to the directors for aggressive leadership, they are facing responsibilities of a heavy character. The citizens of Oshawa, having given the Chamber of Commerce a new lease of life, are looking to it for action. And, with the experienced men already on the board added to be aggressive new di- rectors, there should be no let up in the efforts of the board to make the organiza- tion count for a great deal in the life of Oshawa. Taking It Seriously The British government is taking the Imperial Economic Conference at Ottawa in July very seriously. That is apparent from the list of delegates appointed to represent the mother country on that momentous occasion. Men of the calibre of Stanley Baldwin, Neville Chamberlain, J. H. Thomas, Lord Hailsham, Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister and Walter Runciman would not have been chosen unless the British government looked upon the coming conference as being an event of major im- portance. This is a healthy attitude on the part of the British government, and the announce- ment of its tentative delegates, at this time, was a splendid strategic move. It serves notice on the overseas dominions . that this conference must he taken seri- ously, that in its deliberations the very life of the British Empire will be at stake. Thus an object lesson is being given to all parts of the Empire, which will be more inclined to send their very best men, from the ranks of their respective governments, to represent them. Never before has Can- ada had within its borders, at any one time, such a galaxy of Empire statesmen, and if the other Dominions follow this lead, the conference will not fail for lack of ability on the part of the representatives in atten- dance. Crusoe and F; riday 'The following analytical parable with anemployment in the state of primitive society, which is going the rounds in the Ontario Employment Service, carries many valuable lessons many of which may be applicable to conditions in this city: " 'Friday,' said Robinson Crusoe, 'I'm sorry, I fear I must lay you off.' ? 'What do you mean, Master? 'Why, you know, there's a big surplus of last year's crop. I don't need you to plant another this year. I've got enough goatskin clothes to last me a life time. My "house needs no repairs. 1 can gather turtle eggs myself. There's an over pro- duction. 'When I need you I'll send for you. You needn't wait around here.' » 'That's alright, Master. I'll plant my own crop, build my own hut and gather all the eggs and nuts I want myself. I'l] get along fine." 'Where will you do all this Friday 7?' 'Here on this. island.' "This island belongs to me, you know. 1 can't allow you to do that when you can't pay me anything I need. I might as well not own it.' 'Then T'll build a canoe and fish in the ocean. You don't own that.' "That's alright provided you don't use any of my trees for your canoe, or build it on my land, or use my beach for a land- ing place, and do your fishing far enough away so as not to interfere with my ripari- an rights.' 'I never thought of that, Master. I can do without a hoat though, I'll swim over to that rock and fish there and gather sea- gull eggs.' 'No you won't, Friday, the rock is mine; I won the riparian rights.' 'Then what shall 1 do, Master ?' 'That's your problem, Friday, You're a free man and you know about the rugged individualism maintained here.' 'I guess I'll starve, Master. May I stay here until T do or shall swim beyond your riparian rights and drown or starve there ' T've 'thought of something, Friday. I don't like to carry garbage down to the shore each day. You may stay and do that. Then what ever is left of it, after my dog and cat have been fed, you may eat, You're in luck.' 'Thank charity.' 'One thing more, Friday. This island is over-populate. Fifty per cent of the people are unemployed. We are undergoing a severe depression and there is no way that I can see to end it. No one but a charlatan would say that he could. So keep a look out and let no one land here to settle, and if any ship comes don't let them land any goods of any kind. You must be protected against foreign labour. Conditions are fundamentally sound, though, and pros- perity is just around the corner'. "--Samuel Danzier, American Economic League." This is offered without comment. you, Master. That is true Editorial Notes It is rather hard to convince a body that has a substantial surplus that it should cut the salaries of its employees, as Mayor Macdonald is finding out in his dealings with the Utilities Commission. All foreign settlers are being ordered out of Soviet Russia. In return, how would it do to send all the followers of Soviet Rus- sia's policies over there from Canada to take the places of those deported? Even if everyone does not agree with him, the letters which F. W. Watkinson has. written to The Times have the faculty of making people think. | Other Editor's Comments BRITAIN COMES BACK (Christian Science Monitor) Repayment today of $150,000,000 of the $200,000,- 000 loan granted to the British Government by United States banks last August stands as' milc- post on the road to world-wide economic recovery It serves as an asfurance that the nation upon which much of the world has depended for financial anch orage has been able to withstand the economic shocks of history's most=trying post-war period, It takes only some such hope-inspiring occurrence as this to call forth from veteran financial observer the opinion that London will in time show itself the financial stronghold. it used to be.
