Opposition calls it a "meddle", Well, after listening in on the debates for weeks on -end, it becomes increasingly clear that Canadians have got to think and interpret for themselves .a little; too, We'll try to unravel things if possible, always keeping in perspec- tive the national picture and that mil- lions of others have problems and ideas, too, Letters in from editors all over Canada relative , to this new service reveal that people in Canada are pondering these .days and want to take the works of the clock apart them- selves. One .editor suggests we dig with both hands into a Health Insur- ance measure now pending which he clainis would be foisted on us by a medical monopoly, and which in its present form would cost the people Plenty,' A Manitoba editor wants, ."in simple language enlightenment on matters pertaining to farmers and the farming communities" and also "of what ,bene- fit will the post war reconstruction schemes be to the farmer." That seems to be our "simple task" in this weekly news letter. You must not expect miracles of reporting. Time, experience in digging out the essential fadts and developing a con- tinuity of understanding of what you might be interested in out here will follow. Undoubtedly you want facts, and an authentic, unbiased and inter- pretive slant at Ottawa, dished out as if your own worried-looking editor was here doing it, - IMPLEMENT ORDER SETS NEW QUOTAS Large Increase To Be Allowed The Prices Board issued a new farm machinery order providing sub- stantially-increased quotas for manu- facturers and importers for the" next 12 months. Announced by H. H. Bloom, ad- ministrator of 'farm machinery, the order provides for a supply of farm equipment equal in tonnage to ap- proximately 77 per cent of the average of 1940.41. output, and represents an increase of about 130 per cent over supplies provided by the previous farm machinery control order. It also establishes repair proVisions on the basis of 156 per cent of the 1940 and 1941 overage outpitt. Reasons for the new order, Mr. Bloom said, were increased food pro- duction goals, loss of farm manpower and the short supply of farm equip- ment. For the Eastern Canada, British Columbia and irrigated districts of the Prairie- Provinces, additions, to the production, schedules include 11-tube grain drills; two-row potato planters, 10-foot cut tractor grain binders„ aerated or surface type milk coolers, power potato sprayers and dusters. Though the order provides that machinery and equipment requiring rubber tires may not be made except under permit, a limited number of rubber tire tractors and combines will. be made. Certain types of small equipment such as bee hives, hog troughs, poultry and livestock feeders and milk stools are exempted fi:om the produtcion restrictions provided they are made of non-critical materials.

LOOKS AT - ttawa Written 'specially for the wieldy newspapers of Canada By, Jim Greenblat This introduCes, from the nation's capital, a new series of weekly letters, designed exclusively for community papers of Canada and that vast audi- ence of readers which never gets out to a night club. For the rancher, farmer, fruit grower, miner; the semi- urban and rural people whose feet are directly and indirectly rooted in the soil of Canada. • Your own editor among others has been annoyed to high heaven with the flood of material which he cannot use. Like you he's • a busy person running that old paper you think so much of, whether you agree with him on politics or not. He knows you would be inter- ested- in a quick catch-up on govern- ment doings and what's what around Ottawa after you come in from chores at night. He also knows you do not relish long winded reading after a hard day's work. And this weekly feature, for your editor's sake and es- pecially you, I hope will fill the bill. The Wartime Information Board 'has been made aware that readers of weekly papers are entitled to some- thing in their own language from Ot- tawa, and so, accepting this assign- ment it would be interesting to get your collective reaction through your; editor. If you have any particular problem which has its anchor ,in Ottawa, and you want to know what makes it tick, feel free to drop a line to this column. Maybe it can be interpreted for you. Possibly there are thousands others who want to know about the same thing. But it w8uld be better if none of us get too personal or too political, We'll leave that sort of 'thing to the politicans. This column to justify itself should be a national mirror for the home town. I don't suppose you are much interested in the fact that Ottawa looks really beautiful this time of year. So is your own place out east and west. But you might like, occas- ionally, to hear of strange people, strange faces, strange ideas, all of which makes Ottawa so intriging even if you have to stand in line to eat, There could be little sidelights, like seeing the Soviet fliers recently; the fellows who flew from Moscow to Ottawa—just like that. I watched them in the hotel lobby, in their black tunics, rakish forage caps; smart earnest looking fellows who looked as if they had a mission in life, Undoubtedly their's is killing Germans, They were watching the smartly dressed girls in and out of uniforms; men of our armed forces, civilians and seemed to be measuring the standards of democracy as against Communism. I got a kick out of watching them eye the well filled cigar stand, the .jammecliltotel tate. Well, that's part of Ottawa, A little of this, a little of that about Government activities, legislation, Parliament, none of it 'too wearying-. but informative, Just recently I heard Hon. Hum- phrey Mitchell in the House of Coma., mons justify the governtnent's man- power policy,. When he Said that 5,- 100,000 meet and women out of a total population of 8/120,000 aged 14 years and over were iti the armed forces or at Work, this nil the face of it speaks mighty well for Canada at war.
