COMES FROM CANADA'S TRADE ABROAD ILL is not running a fever. He is merely trying to explain to the new mechanic that 35 cents out of each dollar in his pay envelope is put there by Canadian trade abroad. "Those parts you are making go into all kinds of machines, from refrigerator pumps to marine engines," says Bill, "and the countries that buy them must sell us different things in return, or they would run out of dollars to pay for our work." "Let's get this thing straight," says Bill's new friend. "You mean that 35 cents on each dollar I get comes from things like coconuts and bananas?" "Yes , . . and from coffee and sweet potatoes, sugar and cotton . . . spices and tea." "What a way to make a living! Why, 35 cents on the dollar is more than I pay for rent , . . what would happen if these foreign guys stopped buying my machine parts?" "That's something that must never happen," said Bill thoughtfully, "That's why I'm so fussy about the quality of * the parts we turn out, Ours must be so much better that foreign buyers will prefer Canadian products because they are dependable and made to high standards. That's the way we'll build our foreign trade." "But we can sell the parts we make at home. Why bother with the coconut fellows?" "That's the tricky part of it. We must make foreign markets for Canadian goods now . . . or we won't keep the production lines moving after the people here at home have bought all they need." And this is where YOU come in, friend reader. At least 36 cents of every dollar you earn comes from Canada's foreign trade, too. So if you want to do well by your future -- be patient when some of the goods you want are sold to other countries, And remember, too, that everything you produce is a knock or a boost for Canadian goods in foreign markets . : 3 90 put your heart into your job. Everyone who buys or sells merchandise abroad makes jobs in Lanaaa: That is why we have a Foreign Trade Service in the Department of Trade and Commerce. It maintains able trade commissioners in 29 countries, and an experienced exp. ort and import staff at head office, to collect the most up-to-date information on foreign markets and give practical help to every business that wishes to buy or sell in other countries. ; Hon, James A.
