The Tariff Changes There is little tendency on the part of Canadian business men to make specific comment on the changes which have been made in the Canadian tariffs, and in the conditions under which Canadian goods will enter Great Britain, as a result of the Imperial Economic agreements. On the surface, the agreements on both sides seem to be satisfactory to both sides. They are designed to extend the trade of both coun- tries by permitting a freer interchange of THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1932 All that is required is that some group of men take hold of this idea and organize it. What that group should be we are not prepared to say, but possibly the Chamber of Commerce, by virtue of having an office available as headquarters, might feel in- clined to take the initiative in this effort to provide men with work. Stretching It Newspapers which are rabidly partisan in their political views are inclined to stretch arguments to the limit in their ef- forts to discredit the opposing party. But the limit has surely been reached when the Sherbrooke Record, of Sherbrooke, Quebec, places on the government the re- sponsibility for declining sales of radio re- ceiving sets, Here is what it says: -- "The imposition of an added tax, the threats of a radio department in govern- ment and the creation of a new portfolio for the politicals has had an immediate effect. Sales of radio sets in Canada during the second quarter of 1932 were 11,210, against 28,092 in the same period of 1931. The value of sales declined by $1,642,000, putting out of employment over six thous- and workmen with families,' Apparently the Sherbrooke editor has not realized that people, nowadays, have little money left to spend on radio sets, and that this, rather than an extra license fee, is the outstanding reason why sales have dropped. If anything, the hope of a national radio system for Canada should Strain by C.H. Tuck Opt. EYESIGHT SPECIALIST EFFICIENCY Part "8" Everyone of us is inclined to neg- lect those organs of our bodies which de not complain, We forget we have backs, or hands, or feet un- til they give us pain--Nature's sig- nal of distress, And so it is with our eyes--the most miraculous organ by which our brain secures over one-third of all its impressions. We were born with sight and becausc we are used to that marvelous power, we are far too often neglectful of it. We do not take care of our eyes. Now, the human eye is so wond- erfully built that it can accommo- date amny of the abuses to which it is subjected, Its delicate wonderful muscles and nerves will adjust themselves for an indefinite period to the strains put upon it and even under very severe abuse may per- form the task with little or no com- plaint.

The aim of the Canadian government, so far as the tariffs of this country are con- cerned, seems to have been to interfere as little as possible with established indus- tries in Canada, so far as their finished products are concerned, but to provide for free entry for the raw materials which are used in many of them.

That seems like a sound policy, and one that should meet with general favor, The concessions granted by Britain were very largely known in advance. There Is disappointment, naturally, that there has been no extension of the preference allowed to Canadian automobiles entering Great Britain. On the other hand, as Col. R. S. McLaughlin has pointed out, there are effective barriers, such as the heavy horsepower tax, which stand in the way of the entry of the lower priced Canadian cars into the British market. In a general way, the greatest benefits to Canada will come through the extension of markets for farm products, which constitute a large proportion of Canada's available export trade, and in this respect, the whole coun- try should benefit from the increased re- turns to the producers. After all, however, extension of trade cannot be secured merely by the placing of laws on the statute books. It has been stated that British exports to Canada can be increased by $50,000,000 annually through the new tariff schedules. On paper, this looks fine. The same is true of the estimates made of the increase In the exports to Britain of Canadian pro- ducts. But in the final analysis it will be for the business men of both countries to make the agreements effective. Only as they enter aggressively into the new mar- kets provided, and take advantage of the concessions given to them, will the hoped- for results be achieved. Canadian and British business men will have to develop their own trade, and thus it is; only mere conjecture which impels anyone to say what the benefits of the treaties will be. The actual results will be shown in the future as the industrial and business lead- ers of both countries make use of the ' machinery which has been provided for them to create greater trade in their own products. The Man-a-Block Campaign In Toronto a scheme, known as the "Man-A-Block" campaign has been estab- lished with the aim of providing employ- ment for 1,000 men at $15.00 a week for the next six months. There is so much merit in this scheme that it is worth try- ing in other communities. The method by which it is operated is generally known. During the next six months there will be snow to shovel, fur- naces to attend, ashes to remove, apd many other household duties for the average man to perform. The idea is that one man can take care of these duties for twenty houses located adjacent to each other.. Each of the owners of these twenty houses contributes seventy-five cents weekly, making a total of $15.00 a week, and the man's employment for the winter is assured. Such a scheme, even if on a smaller scale, might well be adopted in Oshawa. There are a sufficient number of people in the city who can afford to pay the small weekly sum to give employment to a fairly large number of men. By organizing the residential districts of the city in: which people now employed and earning suffi- cient money are living, a number of fam- ilies could be removed from the relief lists, and the heads of these families placed in the class of wage-earners, in connection with civic relief. British automobiles now have free entry into Canada. But they have to go a long way yet before they can meet Canadian requirements. The Scotsmen in Canada will rejoice to learn that bagpipes have been placed on the free list. What other nationalities will have to say cannot be printed. _ Looking over Oshawa"s relief expendi- tures makes one feel thankful that the province is bearing eighty per cent of the burden. Some day, perhaps, Oshawa will have sufficient accommodation at the harbor to take care of all the traffic that is available | Other Editor's Comments TOLL GATES AND GASOLINE TAX (Guelph Mercury) The Highways Department refers with evident satisfaction to the fact that the day of the toll gate on Ontario roads is long past, "The toll gates had nothing on the six cents a gallon gasoline toll that every motorist is obliged to pay.
