ERAGE CIRCULATION DAILY AV : for OCTOBER 11,345 eee -- ee te WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1951 | this statement is offered More Austerity Prime Minister Churchill, in his first speech in the newly-elected House of Com- mons, made no attempt to gloss over the extremely precarious condition of the British | economy at the present time. He was frank, | brutally so, in placing before the people of | 'his country that they were heading for na- "tional bankruptcy, and that only by intén- | sifying the measures of austerity, and whole- hearted co-operation of all classes of the people, could that overwhelming disaster be avoided. As we predicted in these columns some weeks before the general election, thé gov- | ernment faces a tremendously difficult task. Britain's dollar reserves have been declining | at a rapid pace this year. A continuance | of this would put the country back into an even worse position than it occupied in 1947 | and 1949. Drastic measures will be required to halt this deterioration of the British | economy, and the unfortunate part of it is that these drastic measures will bear heavily on the already low standards of living of | the working people. Strange to say, while the Socialist party was defeated in the election, its dominant component parts, made up of the unions within the Trades Union Congress, still re- main the key to any British recovery. The TUC, which virtually set the policies for the | former Attlee government, can either help or make impossible that recovery, because they control production in industry. Britain's only hope lies in a greatly increased produc- tion per man hour. Even with the Socialist party in power, this increase in productivity in industry was not forthcoming, because of the lack of incentives. With the Churchill government now willing to set up incentives, it will remain for the TUC to decide whether it will agree to longer working hours and greater production per man hour for its | members. The task which confronts Church- | ill, then, is to sell the Trades Union Congress leaders on the imperative necessity for dras- | tic measures along this line if the country | is to be saved from bankruptcy. As we predicted, Churchill has inherited | a bad mess. To clean it up will tax the resources of himself and his colleagues, But | if he is able to challenge the utmost effort | of the British people as he did in the dark | days of 1940 and 1941, there can still be hope | for utimate recovery. g 27th Brigade's Role There is a good 'deal of confusion of thought about the role which the 27th Cana- dian Army Brigade, now on the way to Ger- many, is going to play over in Europe. This confusion is caused by a declaration from Ottawa that the government has notified her allies in the North Atlantic Pact that bier troops are not going to Germany to fill the role of occupation troops, even though the occupation of Germany is still in effect, and they will be attached to the British army of occupation. This has resulted in such com- plications that military and legal authorities are now trying to work out a formula which will fix their exact status when they reach Germany. There may be some justice in the stand taken by the Canadian government. It is perfectly true that the 27th Brigade is going to Garmany as part of this country's contri- bution to the defence of Western Europe against Communist aggression. It is intended that it will be a part of 'General Eisen- hower's European Defence Army. But it has to be recognized that about the only effec- | through their | do without, they come to believe that they | family. Such persons never let the possible the worst criminals.

Thug a grim warning is given that "few, incidentally, will mourn. tive forces now in that army are the occupa- tion troops maintained in Germany by Britain,sthe United States and France.

It seems very strange that there should ® - | saw the giants, | but they will have, no eccupation | be this restriction on the role of the Cana- dian army forceg in Germany. Of course if might be the logical outcome of the decision of the Canadian government, back in 1946, to withdraw all its troops from Germany and have nothing to do with the occupation of that defeated country. It would mean a direct reversal of that policy of five years -ago to have the troops now going to Germany used for occupation purposes. Yet it does seem foolish to split hairs on such a matter at the | present time. The only thing that matters is | that Canadian troops will be in Europe, ready to take their place dn European de- fence--which means. the defence of Canada ' --should occasion arise. And so long as that is established, it matters little whether they are known as occupation troops or NATO | troops. They are all part of the same army commanded by Eisenhower.

After spending our first time with the Liberal leader on the hust- ings here' this is our reaction. Mr. Thomson stands much bet- ter on the stump than he does in the news reports. On examination of his statements as reported in the news - particularly the grand- iose reports of the Toronto Star - one can pick holes. But when he delivers them in person he carries conviction.

Her role as a major supplier of food and raw materials fo anti- Communist countries is one of the | chief reasons for an anticipated active season of winter shipping, | a Canadian Press survey showed today. | Port managers see higher-than- usual export and import trade.

GRAIN RUSH BEGINS Port Arthur (CP) -- Twenty | freighters were taking on grain | here yesterday as the annual fall | rush began. However, prospects | for clearing a record tonnage this | year lessened somewhat with an- {nouncement that the American Sault locks may have to close three weeks earlier.

The meeting here was one of | the smallest of the Thomson cam- paign. It was held on a Saturday night, which is poor for attendance, but considering the attendance through the rest of the province the showing was poor. On the street gossip has a two- way fight in the local riding, with the CCF trailing in the rear. | The seat was strongly CCF until 1948. But Bob Carlin was a big factor in its strength. The former union organizer who built up the big International Nickel local was very popular throughout the dis- | trict and took the seat handily in| 1943 and 1945. Between then and | 48 he split with the party, how-| | ever, ( or more properly the party | split with him) and he ran as an in ,'48. With the CCF vote split Welland Gem- | | mell won the riding for the P.C.'s. Mr. Carlin has now left the local scene and the present CCF stand- | like his strength, while Mr. Gem- | mell has solidified his position in the intervening years. And the Li-! berals also have gained through a strong candidate, Leo Landreville, | who is the law partner of Leo | Gathier the local Liberal M.P. | A close fight 'is looked for be- | tween Mr. Gemmell and Mr. Lan- | dreville, with the odds slightly favoring the former. Contract for an extension to the Oshawa Salvation Army Citadel was awarded to the W. J. Trick Co., Ltd. The Felt Block on King Street East has been completely renovat- ed to make it a modern business block. General Motors of Canada em-| ployees organized a Musical and Dramatic Society.
