M. Frost has aroused considerable interest in making an an- nouncement in which he has given ap- proval to the principle of compulsory automobile insurance. He has gone so "far as to indicate that legislation to- *swards this end may be introduced in the legislature at a not. too distant date. We are pleased to learn of the Premier's conversion to this idea, which we have advocated in this col- " umn on more than one occasion. The time has surely come when <gvery motor vehicle on the highways of Ontario should be covered by in- surance for at least public liability and property damage. There are too many gases in which accidents occur in which the party responsible has no in- surance coverage. The loss thus falls on the innocent party, in spite of the existence of the Unsatisfied Judgments Fund. The operations of this fund are too slow and laborious, and the com- ~ GUEST EDITORLAL p. sation allowed is not in keeping with modern needs. Let us cite a case. A short time ago, a Western Ontario young man who had lost one leg from polio some years ago was granted a $30,000 judgment by the supreme court for the loss of his other leg after being struck by an au- tomobile. The judgment meant little, as the car driver carried no liability in- suranc . However, the young man could collect only $5000 from the Un- satisfied Judgments Fund. The step taken this year, of adding $5 to the license fee for cars which are not covered by public liability insur- ance, does not cure the evilsof hav- ing people sustain injury without be- ing able to collect adequate compen- sation from the persons responsible. Only by having compulsory insurance can that evil be cured. We hope Mr. Frost will not simply shelve away this idea to the unpredict- able future. Ontario is ripe now for a measure of compulsory insurance. What Think Ye Of Christ? REV. E. A. IRWIN It was inevitable that Christmas Day should become highly commer- cialized, even by the most devout of Christians. There is nothing inherent- ly wrong about this so long as that .does not become an end in itself. The yearly celebration of God's greatest gift to man--Himself--calls: forth an instinctive response from all who re- cognize the Christ Child as the Eter- nal Son Of God. The due observance of Such an Anniversary requires consid- erable preparation, and the good - tom of making it a joyous family "celebration, combined with the giving of gifts in memory of God's gift of Himself, necessitates a considerable amount of buying and selling. It is right and good that we should do our best to make much of the occasion. The sad part of our yearly obser- vance of the Birth of Christ is the alacrity with which so many pecple put all thoughts of the "Good Tidings Of Great Joy" from their minds once the Christmas dinner is over and they have examined their gifts. To them "another Christmas has come and gone" when, actually, the Christmas Season ig just beginning. The only reason for having a festive season called "Christmas" is that "God so loved. the world that He gave His only begotten Son to the end that all that believe in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." He is the only hope of a frightened world, and He came to abide with us for ever. _Apples For Canadian MP's Ea Ernie Broome, M.P. for Vancouver ==8outh, and an apple-growing farmer 3 the Okanagan Valley, has started =--d@omething that might spread.

Delicious apples to the parlia- ment buildings, and members of the House, press gallery and staff were given a real treat. This was Mr. Broome's way of advertising the high- ly-regarded B.C. fruit. Mr. Broome's ingenuity was com- mented on in yesterday's column by Patrick Nicholson, our Ottawa corres- pondent. We have an idea, however, 'that it opens up great possibilities if other members decided to serve up samples of the produce of their dis- tricts to their fellow-M.P.'s.

This basic optimism of the peo- ple comes, in the main, from faith in the nation's vast re- serves of natural resources awaiting development or expan- sion, Less than one in four men and women think we will see less prosperity in the New Year, More than two-thirds, however, think Canada's good times will remain, or grow still better, At the end of an Old Year which showed troublesome as- pects in the economy in the last alf, the Gallup Poll went to the essential barometer in a nation's spending -- the people, to find out what mood they were in as the New Year came in. Question put by interviewers to. scientific sample of rich and poor, city dweilers and farmers, old and young, was this: "Some people think that Can- ada is going to see a continued period of prosperity within the next year, Others do not agree. What is your opinion?" Here is the national viéwpoint. Pet. More Prosperity ahead .. 30 Less Prosperity 23 About the same .. Qualified ....... - No Opinion ........e PON 10 100 Against this cross - country average, optimism rises and falls in the various regions, Mari- timers are most confident of the future, with 43 per cent saying "more prosperity." In Quebec the figure is 26 per cent; in the West, 27 per cent and in Ontario 30 per cent who think still better times are ahead. Throughout the provinces between one-fifth and one-quarter are depressed about the future. Business leaders, owners, and rofessional people are in the igh brackets of confidence for 1958 with more than a third (36 per cent) expecting still more prosperity. Farmers and Labor are less hopeful with about one in four expecting any improve- ment. The three in ten who expect continued prosperity do so for these The three in ten who ex- pect continued prosperity do so for these main reasons: Development of natural re- sources, 21 per cent; Industrial expansion ahead, 13; Everything is on the increase, booming, 12; Government will see to it, 10; More immigrants coming in, 7; No reason for a decline, 5; Still plenty of work and employment, 5; Other reasons for prosperity, 28; Qualified hopes for prosper- ity, 2; No particular reason, 8; (Some gave more than one rea- son). Total 111 per cent. The smaller group who sees . less prosperity ir the offing, do $0 in the main because of the un- employment situation, and. in- crease in the cost of living tied to inflation. On the other hand, those who think conditions will remain about the same, believe there is no evidence of any change in the national economy strong enough to affect the pres- ent general state of business. World copyright reserved U.K. OPINION Britain Looks Forward To A Better New Year By "ONLOOKER"" THOMSON NEWSPAPERS London, England, Bureau Into limbo, almost, has gone 1957. 'And for Britain it has been a pretty momentous 1957, with more "downs'"' than *'ups" in it. The beginning of the year saw the British troops just disembark- ing from the Port Said operation, with Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden a sick man and al- ready preparing to hand down the chief executive's office. Now tne end of the year sees Britain's problems still a long way from a solution, but 1958 is looked for- ward to a little more eagerly than 1957 was. There may be a start, for in- stance, to the problem that hits the man in the street -- and the wife behind him -- most. Prices may be a little less erratic dur-. ing the first few months of next year, and although the British housewife will not be able to fill her larder any fuller with her housekeeping allowance it will mean that at least she will not have many more excuses to ap- proach her husband for a raise. Commodity prices have been fall- ing during the past few months -- that is. They have not yet been passed on, but it is likely that some 'inofficial pressure will be brought {a bear on those who do not pass the price relief on. ELECTION PLATFORM There is another reason why the. present Government wants price cuts in some areas, price stability in others, during 1958. One of its main election plat- forms has been a promise to reach what Prime Minister Mac- millan called the "plateau of stability". Quoth a cynic a few months after he made the re- mark and there had been an- other round of price increases: "This plateau is the most uphill one I've ever hit." But now, with a general elec- tion coming along within the next eighteen months or so, the government will launch an all-out effort to keep prices stable or there will be irksome questions at the hustings. STILL LEAVING The dawn of 1957 saw, too, an upsurge in the numbers of emi- grants from Britain. Final figures have not been worked out, but when it is al' totted up it seems as if something like 220,000 peo- ple left the United Kingdom this year -- some 70,000 up on 1956's total. The question has just been dis- avsged hv the Overseas Migra. tion Board here, which is an aa- visory governmental body. The board has found that only in the case of Canada has there been any significant increase -- of the 175,000 immigrants Canada ad- mitted during the first six months of 1957 72,000 came from Britain. Now the main spurt, following largely the dissatisfaction and the increased cost of living following the Suez affair, has died down. But the problem remains -- al- though Britain still gets folk into the country, they are mostly the unskilled; and the drain on the skilled men continues. THE OTHER SIDE What of the other side of the coin -- the achievements? What has become apparent is an energy in Britain's newer indus- tries: its atomic power plants for peaceful purposes are better and more advanced than in any other country. For other advertisements, look up in the air: the "Viscount" is now an established world-beater on many of the main airlines, and now the "Britannia" turbo- prop airliner has started operat- ing on the most important route in the world -- the North Atlantic. And it is doing it non-stop in both directions. There is an addition to this achievement: the British are streets ahead of their com- petitors in aero-engine design and manufacture, and although the * foreign aircraft are coming along most of them are powered by British engines made under li- cence from Britain. On this as- pect, Britain can bang a worth- _ while drum for 1958. IMAGINATION Another chunk' of British {fmagination has been the way they have arnounced their inten- tion to cut their armored coat ac- cording to their cloth. They have been the first country in the world to ac .iit that a "new look" is needed, and is going ahead in creating a streamlined fighting force. It is my bet that Britain will pe too -- perhaps ten, or 15, or 20 years ahead the rst country in the world to cregfe a defence force under one head, with the, army, navy, and air force integrated instead of work- ing apart But the British still need many years of indoctrination to the idea. For instance, word has just come across from the NATO "summit" talks in Paris that four rocket bases are going to be in- stalled in Britain. The idea is not universally popular. There is ad- miration for Norway and Den- mark hoth 'members of NATO MAC'S MUSINGS The year is gradually Drawing to a close and We cannot help looking Back over what it has Brought to us as we Have gone through the Days and months of Its interesting progress. We are grateful for the Fact that it has been A good year, and we 'are Ready to count the many Blessings we have enjoyed As it has run-ts course.

We have been grateful For all the material Well-being given to us, But above all, for the Fact that life has been Interesting and good, Thanks to associations With our many friends In our 'own community. who have refused to have the bases in their countries. Now the main fear here is that the installation of the inter-range ballistic missile here -- those with ranges of 1500 miles, capable of getting to Moscow from Britain -- will put Britain far too forward in the firing line. And the Scots are proving that they will add flavor to opposition of the plan. I've remarked on how the Scots have so often rea- soned why in previous defence arrangements. On a small scale, they have opposed a London edict that one of the new regiments that are to come into being fol- lowing army amalgamation will wear the 'trews, or tartan trous- ers, instead of the kilt. On a larger scale, they opposed the setting up of a rocket range in North Scotland for training troops in the smaller 'rocket-type weapons.

Produc- tion schedules month by month showed an increase over the previous years. In March it was reported that the 1936 schedules were 41 per cent higher than the average for the previous three years. Employment conditions improved to some extent, but there were still hundreds of un- employed men walking the streets, or working part time in return for the relief assistance given them hy the city. WOULD NOT FACE FACTS The city council, under Mayor John Stacey, was not too well equipped to deal with the serious situation of the year. There was too much self-interest at play on the part of Property-Owners As- sociation - representatives. There was a definite disinclination to face the realities of the situation on the part of some who thought that by. some magical process things would right themselves. Many nights of debate were wasted on theoretical plans for refunding the city's debt, and de- ferring payments on it until a later period, plans which were promptly squelched by the pro- vincial government. BUDGET TROUBLES One of the great council argu- ments of the year was that in onnection with the adoption of the budget and tax rate for 1936. The council asked all its spend- ing bodies to reduce their bud- gets. It asked the board of edu- cation, which found it necessary to reopen the Albert Street Pub- lic School and therefore re- quired more money, to reduce its budget by $4800. The board reviewed its estimates, and re- duced its estimates, and reduced them by $2750. When the city council pre- pared its budget, it cut $3000 from the board of education bud- a change in policy. It announced critical situation rose.
