HUMAN RELATIONS VITAL The selfâ€"righteous protagonist of the status quo is at least as dangerous an enemy of progress as the avowed violent revolutionary. The revolutionâ€" ary usually has something positive to contribute. The hardâ€"boiled reactionâ€" ary menaces the things that are worth keeping in the tradition he professes to protect. Take this problem of Manâ€" egement and Labour for example. Big Businessâ€"Big Communism, too, if you like,â€"have both permitted the machine to take charge; the individual is forâ€" goitten; what is wrong today is not that workers are badly rewarded in money, what is wrong is that the inâ€" dividual worker feels he doesn‘t count in the scheme of things; the hunger is for recognition, and ‘this is really a soul hunger. A century hence the avyâ€" erage citizen will find it hard to beâ€" lieve that a segment of industry and business in 1946 managed to survive on the principle, or lack of principle, of "Management versus Labor‘"‘. Busiâ€" ness success in the future will be with those who contrive a voluntary work« ing partnership of Capital, Manage: ment and Labour in a joint adventure. sharing both the ups and downs. The core of the problem is neither "inâ€" dustrial relations‘" nor "public relaâ€" tions"; it is simply "human relations‘". DOUBLING THE POPULATION In 2046 the population of Canada should not be less than 25,000,000 or rather more than double the present population. To reach this objective will require bold longâ€"term policies arimed at attracting the right kind of immmigrents. â€" And there is this importâ€" ent consideration: if we are so foolish as to do nothing about immigration, the problem before Tong will be taken out of our hands by the United Naâ€" tions. The modified conception of sovâ€" ereignityâ€"the only one that will be tolâ€" erated by world public opinion in futâ€" ureâ€"will not confer upon us the right to maintain perpetuity a "caretaker‘" policy. This haifâ€"continent is still reâ€" latively uninhabited. The initiative should be taken while it is still in our power to take it. Incidentally a popuâ€" lation of 25,000,000 disposed and creatively engaszed will provide us with the steadying influence of a substanâ€" tial home market to counterbalance some of the vicissitudes of trade. World War II has seen Canada asâ€" sume the leadership of the intermedâ€" iate powers, and become the third trading nation among all powers. In another century I believe we shall rank with the greatest powers, but a good deal will depend on how well our genâ€" eration deals with its unfinished busiâ€" ness. THE PEOPLE OF CANADA Of a totsl population of about 12 millions, five million seven hundred thousand are of British origin, that is, slightly less than half. Frenchâ€" speakinz Canadians number four milâ€" lions, or about a third of the total. The rest is a microcosm of Europe, Asiz, and North America, including half a million ¢f German origin, and substantial~ numbers <of Scandinavian, Ukrainian, Netherland, Polish, Italian and Russian orizin. The Canadian type is different from any other European mixture. It has a wider base. Apart from the difficulties of adâ€" justment caused by the change in British trade policy, the year 1846 saw the beginning of a cycle of depresâ€" sion. And there were other problems; the potato famine in Ireland, crop failure in the North of Scotland, atâ€" tended in both areas by distress and epidemics, projected a torrent of imâ€" migr2tion to North America. Ninety thausand immigrants were literally dumped without warning on "Canada East‘"‘. A population of less than sevâ€" enteen times the number was called upon to absorbh this army of immiâ€" grants. A GLANCE BACKWARDS ; By Gladstore Murray ... Before the pluri;e into the future let us glance backwards. What was the situation in 1846? To gain a perâ€" spective of Canada in 1846 one must go back sixtyâ€"three years farther, that is, to 1783:;: Then "Canada East" conâ€" sisted of eighty â€"thousand Frenchâ€" speaking citizens, a handful of Engâ€" lish officials and soldiers, some hunâ€" dreds of English merchants, a few thousand exâ€"New Englanders, a scatâ€" tering of other English settlers, and perhaps forty thousgnd Indians. In the sixtyâ€"three years after 1783 the population of Canada grew to two million two hundred thousand, one and a half million being in French Canâ€" ada. The Canadians of 184§ considered this development almost miraculous. It is true to say that the history of Canada is characterised by the achieveâ€" men of successive impossibilities, and it is well to keep this in mind when we consider the future. THE YEAR 1846 The year 1846 wes a momentous one for several reasons. It was the year in which Great Britain discarded the old exclusive Imperial trade system The difficulties of adjustment hit Canâ€" ada hard in the beginning, but not nearly as hard as business expected. There was, however, a good deal of bitterness against the Imperial Govâ€" ernment. It is indeed amusing to reâ€" flect that a vigirous "annexationist" movement was organized in Montreal by the so called "Tories‘". Lord Elâ€" gin, the Governor General, encounâ€" tered hostile public demonstrations. Sir . Allan McNab, leader of the Tories in Montreal, declined to call in the Govâ€" ernor or speak to him for four years. All this was because the double wall of tariffs around the British Colonies had been suddenly swept away. Canada A Centâ€"uâ€"r; m Now Plan Regular Walks Persons living within two or three miles of their places of work should walk both ways. Shoes should have straight inner lines: from heel to toes, soles as wide as. ao}es of feet when standing, snug fit sbout arches and nceels, lIoose over the toes. The heels should be low. Walking Shoes The {fundamental principle in the care of the feet is the maintenance of freedom of motion of toes and ankles in locomotion. Posture is of distinct importance in walking. Keep toes pointing straight ahead, abdominal muscles flat and firm chest wide with good expansion, head well balanced, and chin in. It is true there is inherent resistâ€" ance to discase and sickness but there is ‘also acquired resistance. A daily walk of two to three miles will strengthen this resistance. Correct Way to Walk Walk ‘and stand with toes pointing straight ahead so that the big toe seems to have a grip on the ground. Carry weight forward from heci to toe, pressing on tocs. Swing arms vigorously from the shoulders. _Walking is necessary.-bccausc some form of exercise is fundamental to health. A brisk walk of two or three miles daily, in all but the most severe weather, is one of the best investments there is in personal health. Such exâ€" ercise will pay dividends in a sense of buoyant, happy fitness. Such is the admonition in a "Walk and Keep Fit" pamphlet issued by the Toronto Central Y.M.C.A. "The body is built to be a going concern," the pamphlet says. "Walking is nature‘s great universal exercise and is available to all without cost or taxaâ€" tion." Walking is excellent medicine for all agesâ€"it cures cold feet, hot heads, pale faces and bad tempers. Our Permanent Force Canada‘s goal of 53,000 for her thrce armed services is slowly being apâ€" proached. The Navy has 8.600 of its 10,0000 objective. Army 15,000 of 25,000. Air Force, 12,500 of 18,100. With modâ€" ern equipment it should be the nucâ€" leous of a formidable. Government Control Of Building The Canadian Legion h2s asked the Federal Government to take immediate control of building in a recently: preâ€" sented brief. Other main points in brief included: (1) Use of governâ€" ment emergency powers to "control, divert, or acquire" materials for buildâ€" ing lowâ€"income houses. (2) Develojâ€" ment of a Veterans‘ housing project with. mortage loans amounting to 95 percent of actual cost, amortized over a 30â€"year period at 3% per cent. Polish Veterans Getting Settled Nearly all of the first group of 1700 Polish veterans who arrived in Canacda have now been placed on farms. Reâ€" ports indicate that both the {armers and veterans are quite happy with their new men and jobs respectively. Canada‘s Workers Before the war, in 1939, the total working force in Canada was 3.8 imilâ€" lions, of which a little over 2 milllions were nonâ€"agricultural wage and salâ€" ary workers. 17 per cent of this latter group belonged to labour unions. Toâ€" day the total working force is conâ€" siderably over 4.9 imillions, of which 2.9 â€"millions are nonâ€"agricultural wage and salary workers, 25 percent . of these are members of labour unions. Unemployment Insurance Employer â€" employee contributions paid into the Unemployment Insurance Fund during October totalled $6,585,â€" 574.37, according to a release from the Commission. This was $1,2065,891.85 greater than payments in the corresâ€" ponding month last year. Presents For Former Enemies After much pressure the British sgoverment has agreed to allow food parcels to be sent as Christmas‘ preâ€" sents to Germany, reads an article in the Financial Post. Therefore, many thousands of Britons will contrive to save something from their meagre raâ€" tions to send them to former enemics. Walking, The Great niversal Exercise Vacancies Equal Jobs Unemployment now is less than 3 per cent of the labour force. At October 31 there were 134,00 unplaced applicants registered with National Einployment Service, 133,000 unfilled vacancies regâ€" istered. Brides and Babies Mr. W. B. Hanna of Toronto, as chairman of the Red Cross Veterans Dependants Committee for all Ontaric, has in person greeted most of the 230,â€" 000 wive sand babies of servicemen who arrived on "BBU" trains (Brides, Baâ€" bies Unlimited) and passed throuch the Toronto Red Cross Reception.
