Scot, SOME NATIONS CAN- AGREE Last Ti'riday this writer attended a most interestIng and impressive ceremony—the opening of the power project which has been constructed along the St, Lawrence Saway. The ceremony was held at the centre of the gigantic dam, on the internation- al boundary between Canada and the United States The power development is so vast, and the engineering and Con- sttuction work has been so compli- cated that pages could be written, upon these aspects alone. However, the most thought-provoking aspect of the entire plan is the fact that it was planned and carried out, not within the borders of one nation, but rather by two neighboring countries. The completion of the project is in- deed a living and working monument to the truth that great nations can still agree with one another and. work together for their common welfare., Two thousand people from both sides of the border assembled at the centre of the dam on Friday morn- ing to hear a program which opened with the "Star Spangled Banner" and closed with "God Save the Queen''.. Speakers were 'Robert. Moses, distinguished chairman of the Power Authority of the Sate of New, York, James Duncan, chairman of the Hydro-Flectnic Power Com- mission, of the Province of Ontario; Governor Joseph B. Johnson of the State of Vermont, Hon. Thomas E. Dewey, former governor of the State of New York, Hon. Leslie M. Frost, Prime Minister of the Province of 4 NO SENSE OF HUMOR • Every editor receives, and inci- dentally discards, vast piles of mail each week, much of which asks space in his newspaper for the support of any of a hundred different causes. When these causes are worthy We try to comply as far as humanely possible, but a large percentage goes straight to the faithful waste paper basket. :This week we came across a dady. A lengthy article emanating from Regina, tears the heart out of the government for its farm policy, .deinancls that farmers tighten their thinking and form a new political party to, put an end to this- injustice and to solidly line the agricultural slaves beside the comrades in city sweatshops. The payoff comes toward qthe end, when, the writer states in no un- certain terms, "The propaganda put out by the capitalist controlled press„, radio and TV on this question is misleading to say the least." Having thus been clearly inform- ed of our status in society, this cap- italist newspapsr has decided not to provide any free space for the West- ern crusader. You're darned right this is-a, cap- italist controlled paper and the capital behind it was earned by plenty of hard work and no handouts from anyone. AS a matter of fact we ,ever get a government grant or subsidy in our entire career and we' aren't asking for one. Frankly we get a little tired of this word 'capitalist" being used to indicate something or someone dirty. There are plenty of fine upstanding capitalists in this country, who inci- dentally, provide all the employment that exists, • — And in case out Mend is in any doubt there is no more clear-cut and significent capitalist than the Canad- ian farmer, .

First sod for the mighty project was turned just a little over four years ago, in August, 1954, by Governor Thomas Dewey and Pre- mier Frost. Since that time 600 million dollars have been spent. Ninety-five million tons of earth and rock have been excavated ; 3,2 mil- lion yards of concrete have been poured. Other requirements fo'i the project were two million tons of sand; 3.2 million tons of stone; 28,000,tons of structural steel ; 20,200 tons of, gates, hoists and cranes. In an undertaking so vast, one can well imagine the' numberless occasions on which differences of opinion arose between commission- ers,from the two countries, The fact that all were settled quickly and without Serious detriment to the common' purpose surely offers sonic hope that eventually mankind will learn to handle its problems without, guns and planes. WRONG FROM ,THE START For several weeks controversy has raged. in Ottawa, where a gov- ernment coMmission has been in- vesting the excessive cost of the bureau of printincf b . Some years ago the construction of a new building to house the government printing plant -was ;started in the -city of Hull, across the Ottawa. River from the capital. We can well recall visiting the site when nothing more than the 'cement piers of the foundation were in 'evidence, and ,the prospect was not too promising even then, for two pert in ,a rowboat were placidly in- specting ,the beginnings of the build-, ing., The fact that sump pumps and temporary buildings in the basement of the completed building Just- nat- urally' follows. The cost of the structure exceed- ed estimates by a slight 12 million and' it is now believed that some $700,000.00 will 'be needed to repair faults in the air conditioning system alone. These and many other facts are, of course, the reason for the investi- gation and all we can do is leave the final outcome in' the hands of the in- vestigators. None of the news releates we havev seen, however, have referred to the fact that the Canadian'Weekly Newspapers Association and other graphic arts groups in this country protested the erection of the printing bureau' ,as an infringement on the rights of private industry. There is every indication that the government printing bureau has never been able produce printing at anywhere near the price which would be charg- ed' by the independent printing com- panies throughout the country . even before allowance is made for the monstrous cost of a new building and millions of dollars worth of new equipment. The question of whether or not the government should participate in the manufacture of commodities which can be purchased from tax- paying business firms has been thrashed over many, many times. The government of the Province of Ontario has issued directions to its various departments to purch-ase their printing from printing com- panies through the proper govern- ment official, who is known as the ueen's Print er, All this would appear toi be of interest only to printers the fel- lows who suffer directly. Such, how-. ever' is far from being the case, The federal printing bureau employs thousands of persons who are 111&11- hers of the civil service and who are therefore, to some degree, limited in their political freedom; These $A,111 people would still be employed by private industry if the printing eon- tile& were plaeed where they belong and the country as a whole would be a much healthier democracy, N "It **J.
