Get some sense into your head man! This is the country we throw apples in lakes, bury tons of potatoes, etc. We have no problems of production, we maintain artificial scarcity to keep prices up!" He over-states his problem. In 1926 we produced manufactured goods val- ued at $3,100,604,637. Direct factory labor received $625,682,242 for its services. There was also labor in the raw materials, freight, insurance, the construction of plant and equipment etc. The total labor involved, direct and indirect, would be over 83 per cent o fthe value of the product produced. In 1933 we were in the midst of hard times. Gross value of production in manufacturing was $1,954,075,785. The cost of materials amounted to $966,- 788,928, salaries and wages totalled $436,247,824. Here is a case in which my friend's theory does not work. Pro- duction has been substantially re- duced. Why didn't it work? That is for him to answer. His pet theory was applied in 1933 but conditions were worse, not better. Now let us come back to the bricks mentioned above. Let us apply his logic to that situation and ask him this question: Would an increase in the cost of laying bricks brought WHITECHURCH Mr, and Mrs, Will McClenaghan, of Rock Creek, Ohio, visited here recently at the homes of his bro- thers, George and Ben McClenaghan, and with Mr. and Mrs. Robt, Mc- Clenaghan, Wingham, Mr. Harry Mc- Clenaghan, of Belgrave, and with his Sister, Mrs. Herbert Laidlaw.

The Problem of 'Unemployment By R. J. DEACHIVIAN I received today a postcard unsigned in answer to 'a letter I sent out some time ago dealing' with the question of bricklaying. A bricklayer in Holland lays 1500 bricks in a day, in Canada he lays 500. I asked this question: In which country would you rather live -the country where the worker lays 1500 bricks or the one where he lays 500, This is what my unsigned friend answers: The cost of building is now very high. What would happen if all work- ers - not only the bricklayers but, all the workers worked at a third of' their capacity, laid 500 bricks instead -• of 1500 - or the equivalent in other • My unknown correspondent claims there is now no problem of production. There is, however, a very real, a much greater problem - production, at a price, within the capacity of the con- sumer to pay. Is that solved by the bricklayer laying 500 bricks when he has. the capacity to lay 1500? If ev- ery other worker employed the same tactics wouldn't the cost of housing be increased and the number of men Optometrist Patrick St., Wingham h. ALAN WILLIAMS Professional Eye.

This statement scarcely deserves an. answer, If the workers produced three times as much they would earn three times as much, The national income and national spending power 100.uld be multiplied by three, Does. our friend believe that we would be choked to death by our new abundance?
