The Wingham Advance-Times, 1939-09-07, Page 7. ** z" t •4^ Wroxeter News and Gorrie Vidette Thursday, September 7, 1939 A GERMANY CONTINUES HER DRIVE ON POLAND FOR SECOND DAY No Wonder Yon Are Constipated! What do you eat for breakfast? Coffee, toast, maybe some eggs? What do you eat for lunch and • dinner? Bread, meat, potatoes? No wonder you’re constipated... due to lack of "bulk,” And "bulk” doesn't mean the amount you eat. It means the kind of food that forms a soft, bulky maaa in the bowels. It’s this mass that helps your bowels move. The common sense thing to do about it is to eat Kellogg’s All­Bran for breakfast This ready- to-eat cereal will give you, just tlie "bulk” you need. And it gives you, in addition, Nature’s intestinal-tonic, vitamin Bi. Eat a generous portion of All-Bran every day, drink plenty of water; and life will be brighter, for you! All-Bran is made by Kellogg in London, Canada. Sold by every grocer.

THE CIVIL SERVICE, — Lib­ eralism approves of the merit system of appointment and believes that the jurisdiction of the Civil Service Com­ mission should be extended over all employees except where remuneration is less than $300 per annum. Civil servants should be promoted on ability and experience. Transfers from one section of the country to an­ other should be freely made, and here, as in the United Kingdom, Civil ser­ vants should be moved from one de­ partment to another wherever it ap­ pears that improvement in the service or fuller opportunity for development of the employee will be achieved by such action. 4. - DEBT AND EXPENDITURE. — Parsimony in expenditure may be extravagance, but expenditures which’ fail to return value for the money spent are a waste of national capital. Debt is not in itself an evil. The ques­ tion which arises in the contemplation of any expenditure, public or private, is a simple one—Are we likely to get full value for the money we are about to spend? The duty of Liberalism is to insist on this basis of action in the discussion of public expenditures, 5. FOREIGN RELATIONS.—The problem of foreign relations must be settled in the field of economic co-op­ eration. Sound foreign policy should begin in the domestic field. The grow­ ing tendency towards trade barriers and other restrictions between prov­ inces, cities, and towns within the na­ tion reflects a narrowness of spirit which makes co-operation and under­ standing extremely difficult both at home and abroad. Liberalism believes that extreme protection and intensive nationalism are incompatible with modern ciliviza- tion and a high standard of living and is convinced that the breakdown of existing barriers is the only alterna­ tive to world chaos. If this seems im­ possible in the world of today, it must not be forgotten that the many things of today are impossible in the world of tomorrow—if civilization is to sur­ vive. 6. GOVERNMENT OWNER­ SHIP.. — Liberalism accepts and be­ lieves in private ownership and the greatest possible freedom for individ­ ual initiative. It accepts government ownership only where there is an in­ terest which transcends'the economic and creates a field of activity in which circumstances restrict and limit the possibility of private action. 7. IMMIGRATION. — Liberalism cannot accept the doctrine that the natural resources of Canada are for ourselves alone. An increase of popu­ lation, the growth of capital invest­ ment, would strengthen the national economy. Therefore, immigrants, Sound in health and capacity and abil­ ity, should be encouraged. Every ef­ fort should be made to induce foreign capital to invest in Canada, 8. LABOR. — Liberalism does not hold that increases in hourly wages of tabor constitute the sole measure of the Standard of living, nor does it assume that wages can be fixed by government fiat, or helped by state in­ terference in support of the stronger groups. The problem is to increase real purchasing power and distribute it equitably to those who work by hand or brain and to the basic pro­ ducers of the nation. This can best be done through freedom of compe­ tition and by fundamental measures for lowering the cost of living and in­ creasing the purchasing power of the dollar. 9. MONETARY POLICY.—Mone­ tary policy is now subject to the con­ trol of Parliament. Control rests Where it should be, but the situation is one which involves certain dangers. The misuse of its powers, especially when they arc newly acquired, is al-; ways a possibility in a democracy, The remedy lies in a broader understand’ ing of the operations of the Central Bank and the limitations of monetary action in a sound economy, 10, RAILWAYS, The funda> mental need of our railways is an in­ crease >n the type'of traffic which they can handle with maximum efficiency^ The solution of the railway problem rests upon the restoration of agricul­ ture and the expansion,of the heavy goods industries. It involves building the country up to the railways rather than pulling the railways down to the country. It means facing the problems which have brought about the pres­ ent difficulty rather than trying to ig­ nore the difficulty while treating the symptoms. Co-operation can be extended. To do so means the development of th© co-operative spirit. For that’ purpose we may need an altered perspective in management. But Liberalism holds firmly to the view that such savings as intelligent anticipation can reason­ ably expect from unification will not compensate the Canadian people for the dangers involved in the creation o£ a powerful railway monopoly. 1.1. TARIFFS. — Tariff reductions should be gradual but substantial.. Changes should be made by .Parlia­ ment rather than by executive action, or departmental operation of sections of the Customs Act or the Customs Tariff. Substantial reductions would bring about the development of the home market which has for so long been strangled by high tariffs. A low­ er tariff would promote efficiency in industry, stimulate Canadian manu­ facturing, .permit the expansion of basic industries and lead to the ex­ tension of our export and import trade. 12. UNEMPLOYMENT. — Un­ employment is not the result of fun­ damental weakness in our economic system; it represents rather a lack of balance in the price structure. This is largely the result of governmental interference with the free play of nat­ ural forces, which brings about an ar­ tificial condition favorable, temporar­ ily, to certain sections of the commun­ ity. The spread in price between manu­ factured goods and farm products is,, wide; unemployment in these condi­ tions is inevitable. Wages and stand­ ards of living in the cities are forced up by special labor legislation. Basic producers with low earning capacity cannot buy the products produced in the cities. Increase of unemployment follows naturally; it cannot be avoid­ ed; it is inherent in our course of ac­ tion. Those for whose benefit the leg­ islation was passed are the chief suff­ erers. A few .have their wages raised j total wage payments are lowered, lab­ or, as a whole, earns less, or works more for what it gets. To improve these conditions with­ out remedying the underlying causes is quite impossible! rc6‘0g«,fc»- nizes these facts and approaches the problem from that angle. Save as a temporary measure, expenditures Oft public works which have no exchange value, slight commercial utility and high maintenance costs serve only in the long run, to render more difficult the attainment of the present objectiv­ es besides intensifying future difficul­ ties.

Deachman, M.P., Won Prize In Saturday Night’s Platform Contest Saturday Night, the famous Canad­ ian weekly, held a platform competi­ tion. R. J. Deachman, M.P. for North Huron, was a winner with the plat­ form he submitted. 1 The following is what Saturday Night has to say about their contest: "No single entrant in our Platform Competition has, in our opinion, com­ pletely Saved the Country in a single platform. We have therefore decided ■to divide the Fifty Dollars among three entrants, one of whom has in our opinion done the best job of saving in the Liberal manner, one in the Con­ servative manner, and one in a slight­ ly unorthodox Cc-operative Common­ wealth Federation manner. The Liberal winner is R. J. Deach- map, M.P. for Huron North, Ont. The Conservative winner is Herbert Maxwell Bruce, Annandale, York Mills, Ont., the son of the immediate past Lieutenant Governor of Ontario. The C.C.F. winner is J. C. Harris, of New Denver, B.C. We know that in a way it is unjust, but we are giving Twenty Dollars to Mr. Deachman and Mr. Bruce, and only Ten Dollars to Mr. Harris. This is because we feel that the C.C.F. is less likely to be able to save Canada in Mr. Harris’s way than the other two parties in Mr. Deachman’s or Mr. Bruce’s Way.” The platform by Mr. Deachman fol- Ioavs. AVtjclc wc will otilSlisli tile Prize Conservative Platform.
