Surely a triumph of planless economy! "Oil was discovered in Alberta in 1914, In the thirty-six years since the first-well was brought in, sév- eral hundred have been drilled. In East Texas, the first well came in in 1930, and in 18 years, 20,000 wells were drilled. Western Canada's oil was explored at a pace that took thirty years or more to reveal that Canada had an oil potential about one-third as great as the United States, and that Canada's oil ter- ritory is about 15 percent of her acreage. In the meantime, oil has been Canada's leading import for every one of those Jee. To the excuse that Alberta a long way from Canada's principal petroleum using areas, consider this--in some of those years, Canada's principal supplier of petroleum was Vene- zuela! The kingpin in Canada's oil situation is Standard Oil of New Jersey, through its subsidiaries, Imperial Oil Limited, and Inter- national Petroleum. Canadian oil development didn't really start to move until Imperial Oil had liqui- dated a substantial part of her in- terests in Internationa] Petroleum's Venezuelan and other South Ameri- can fields. Other Canadian oil companies have had equally heavy investment in US, Trinidad, and other foreign oil fields. Their Cana- dian exploration and development has been even more reluctant.

Research "In the field of industrial re- search, Canada's per capita expen- diture is now one-quarter that of the US, and very much less than Great Britain's, Naturally US-con- trolled firms find it easier to rely on head office for research. Many Canadian plants wait for US re- search to find new methods, for- mulas, and materials, and then copy or secure the Canadian rights by license or royalty. In asbestos and nickel, purely Canadian pro- ducts, over 90 percent of the re- search is done in the United States. "In 1948, ninety-five per cent of Canada's patents were issued to aliens, while the US patent office issued a tiny percentage of patents to Canadians. The most serious as- pect of the prollem is the attitude of Canadian industry to research. Canada's annual expenditure on industrial research is about $19,- 000,000 a year, This is less than the research budget for a number of individual American and British corporations. attitude toward [ "The Canadian research shows up In the "pay TY |schedule. Canadian researchers ie- ceive about the same pay as high |one manufacturer of soda ash, and | school teachers, with longer hours, fewer holidays, lower pensions, and much less security. Chemists wl, PhD's and twenty years' experi- ence, average $4,735. per year. (Women less than $3,000.) starting rate for graduate chem- ists is about $205 per month. This may explain. why there are plenty of Canadian researchers in the United States. There are only some 1,000 industrial labs in Canada, wi 2,500 trained Si the top dozen firms employ 35 percent of the technicians, you can see that the average Canadian research lab is a one-man show. "I mentioned monopolies. Let's take a look at just one example -- and see what if means to us. Cana- dian Industries Limited -- the fa- millar CIL -- is owned jointly by Dupont, and Imperial Chemical In- dustries Limited, the British chemi- cal cartel. CIL cannot export its production, by terms of its agree- ment with is parent companies. This means that some of Canada's richest resources, such as her abun- dant high grade salt, which should provide fhe base for a heavy chemical industry, is effectively The technicians." : [ 'restricted 'to domestic production, i by There is only lade tind af a deal some of 8 deal |cnly one manufacturer of caustic |soda -- both widely used by Cana- | dian industries. It is hard to esti- fnew Now great aoehemical indus- try Canada could develop, with her abundance of raw materials, and \cheap water powér and electricity, if her chemical companies were free to develop. "Now -- if we aren't doing any of these things to make use of Canada's eat resources or, worse still, 'aren't even studying whether or not they can be done -- how does this situation: come about? It happens because our economy is absolutely planless -- and any such progress is based on the hope that the profit motive will drive men to do these things. When private profit and the public interests HAPPEN to coincide that's fine! The public gets what it needs, and somebody makes some money. That's fine -- when it hap- pens. But here I've given you a number of instances where it hasn't happened -- or took so long to happen that it hasn't done any- body any good. Of course, econo- mists will say -- be patient -- in the long run, everything will come out all right. Well -- economists . The superb new 1951 Lincoln Cesmopolitan and the glamorous new 1951 Lincoln are again becoming available in Canada. From bumper to bumper, Lincoln's lines are smooth-flowing, modern, tasteful. Lincoln's interiors match this outer splendor. Gem-like appointments . . . smart, tailored upholsteries in nylon, broadcloth and leather . . . and wide, comfortable seats! And when you drive, you'll discover fine-car performance at its ultimate best. This year, the spirited *"'InVincible 8", high-compression engine is smoother tha n ever. And with HYDRAMATIC, you get the alert, eager response and remarkable ease of handling worthy of this mighty power plant. Compare the fine craftsmanship an engineer- ing--you'll find that Linceln and Lincoln Cosmopolitans speak eloquently for them- . selves. Truly -- Nothing co: uld be finer! | have been saying that for 200 years {= so that now all we can be sure about is that, in the long run, we'll all be dead. Certainly if 50 year delays are to be frequent, we'll all be dead before Canada is the rich, prosperous country it could be, not lagging behind its neighbour. "There's another point. Most of these developments would take | many millions of dollars of capital, and could only be financed by big corporations -- or by the state. But youll find that the bigger a cor- poration gets, the more conserva- tive it gets, and the fewer risks it will take. There's nothing as timid as a milllon bucks -- except two million bucks -- and it gefs pro- gressively worse. Right here in Canada, we have the spectacle of our government' pleading, cajoling, and making all kinds of conces- sions to get our stec. industry to expand enough tu supply a respect- able fraction of our demand for steel. You can be sure that the ex- pansion program that has just been announced, will be made on a basis that doesn't risk very much of the steel company's capital. Nationalization In Britain "That's why the Labor Party in Britain is going ahead with their program to nationalize Britain's steel industry. They found out that | If British steelmakers were to bring viel iudusiry up vo date, it would Britain's greedy steel makers had been grabbing profits, and letting their plants run down, so that British steel 'cost too much. The steel] in one of those little English cars costs the British car industry more than the steel in one of our bigger cars. So that, while Britain's steel industry "had increased pro- duction, it still didn't come apy- where near meeting Britain's pyb- lic interest by supplying steel a competitive price. So that you can look for Britain's steel industry to make great progress -- in the pub- lic interest -- right away. Britain isn't nationalizing steel because she is committed to state ownership -- she is nationalizing steel because it is a practical, commonsense step, that she has to take if she wants to progress. "Whenever a . real emergency arises, the profit motive as the driving force of our economy has to be thrown-overboard -- and a planned economy -- planned to meet the emergency -- has to be used. We did it during the war -- and we'll start doing it again in this emergency, no matter how re- luctant our Liberal Government is to put back controls -- controls -- | planning -- they'll be driven to.it. {Even Leslie Frost says they'll be require millions of capital -- and |9¥iven to it. "But what kind of common sense does it make, to plan during emer- gencies, and then have to plan until another emergency comes alcng? "Now, tell you what I've been trying to is, that Socialism makes common sense and don't let anybody tell you any different. So- cialism makes sense to Canada, and it is the only way that Can- ada will develop, because Capfital- ism is too slow, too aimless, and Noo timid and greedy for our good, Does it make common sense for Canada to live meaner than her neighbours? Does it make common sense that so many things we need cost too much -- cost too much be- cause our free enterprise isn't en- terprising? Does it make common sense that we should have less to spend on education, on security for our old age -- on health services -- yes, and on plumbing and elec- tricity -- and on cars -- and on recreation -- just because our capi- talists are afraid of planning! "Planning -- and working to- gether democratically, unselfishly, and in the true Christian spirit -- that's the greatest common sense of our day -- or any other day."
