SAILS FOR ENGLAND

THE DIFFERENCE
There’s a big difference between collective bluffing and col
lective action. One requires a big pretence and leads to disaster.
The other requires brains and moral stamina and leads along the
road of honour to security: Over 50 nations in the League of Na
tions simply bluffed. We know now who' they are and we’ll not

LET’S BE GRATEFUL
Not for a long time has there been a prospect of better crops.
The hay is quite up to the average, for though this crop is not as
long as it is some seasons, it is thick at the bottom. In this
necion we are reminded of the old Scottish saying regarding hay.
“One inch at the bottom is worth two at the top.” Oats and bar
ley, in he face of the frosts of early June, are doing splendidly. Fall
wheat while not as thick on the ground as it is some years, is even
ly distributed and well headed. While the corn is limping a little,
because of a continuance of cool nights, it is ready to shoot right
up well and are likely to give a good

and that was all they were, prepared to do.
Neither nations nor communities are as yet ready for anything
like collective action or co-operation, on a large scale. A lot of in

OF COURSE HE’S BAFFLED
The following quotations are from the Peterborough Examin
er, unless when otherwise designated. We refer them to the very
earnest consideration of ”oui\ readers. Unless Canadians do some
mighty stiff considering grave disaster is ahead. Only fools and
blind refuse to face up to conditions rapidly becoming ominous.
Says our contemporary:
“York Township has 16,0'00 (people on relief and the reeve
says unless the governments do something at once many of these
people will face starvation. There .have been >660 single'men taken
off the relief lists. The case was discussed when a deputation went
to talk it over with Premier Hepburn and .How. David Croll.”
Be it known to all interested that .if there is a region .in all
North America more bedeviled by party politics and “socialistic”
and “communistic” propaganda than York Township and. some of
its adjacent municipalities we’d- like to hear about it. These re
gions threw common sense to the wind and are now- reaping the
..whirlwind; That is the simple truth. • But that is not all. .Having
eaten their own in the brew and stew of their own folly, these
people are calling upon the thrifty taxpayers of the Province to
make amends for their self-invited calamities. Politicians and their
kindred have got the municipalities referred to into the present
lamentable condition and have the brazen impudence to ask the
rest of Ontario to help them out.
Then follows from the Examiner, the following unmitigated
nonsense, typical of the utterances of the soft-hearted and the soft
headed that is working untold ha'rm in these distressing days:
“Premier Hepburn or any other man worth his salt would give
these people employment if he could. The Premier is not trying
to keep them from working, but the plain truth is he cannot do
what this man expected could be done.”
The government “give” these men work or anything else!
Surely “the government” does very well when it sees that every
man who works, when he works without making a nuisance of
himself, shall have the opportunity of SO' doing without molesta
tion'! Whatsoever is more than this results in trouble. If men pre
fer to choose their jobs with the accompanying risk of not getting
the job they choose, with the natural consequence of going un
clothed and unfed, why should we say “Keep right on. We’ll not
only Condone your folly out we’ll feed and clothe you better than
are fed and clad thousands of those who toil, to support you in
your freedom to do as you please!” Those pickers and choosers
will do well to take a leaf from the book of the men Who cleared
away the forests of this country, and laid the foundations of our
present civilization.
Premier Hepburn is very frank about this situation and very
manfully confesses that he cannot do what >he set out to do. If he
will but admit that he had no business in attempting to- do what
no government has a right to attempt to do, he would have conferred a lasting boon not only upon Ontario but upon all who are not
disposed to think our present situation through. Here is what
the Prime Minister says, according to the Examiner:
“Let me ..point this out to you men and women, I have always
believed in placing taxation where it was least felt, We have done
so, but now we find wealthy people leaving the province. They
are going to Nassau, Jamaica, Bermuda and other places to, escape
our taxation, and there is nothing we can do about it. We have no
■control over credit and currency. These are Dominion matters. The
unemployed have my full sympathy, but we cannot spend that which
we do not possess.”
There you have it. The toilers and the thrifty simply will not
give of their lawful possessions to the crippling point to support
those who do not toil except on conditions of their own ease
loving choice but who. look for a handout from those who have gone
on the principle of earning a dollar and living for the present on
90 cents, leaving the unused 10 cents for the rainy day.or for old
ago.There are certain things that even governments cannot do.
Wholesale confiscation of the property of the thrifty and economi
cal folk of this Dominion is hot a pleasant thing to contemplate. It
is high time that the average Canadian got over hi# party ridden
condition,
