When the war started in 1939 the total pro- ducion of manufactured goods had reached $3,474, 783,528. At the end of the war in 1945 it' stood at $8,200,368,866. The fear of war is a barrier to human progress but it must be admitted that industry acid agriculture still go forward "even in a powder cart." -World War tio..I broke out in 1914.

There must be tens of thousands in Europe for which the human conflict- was too great a strain. - They Marry their wounds not on their bodies but in their hearty and minds. 'Recovery is a slow and painful process. The channels of trade have been obliterated. The people are no longer free. Each country has its towering mountain of debt. These debts may be repudiated but re- pudiation is costly. It does not satisfy an obligation --the bills re- main unpaid. Slowly Europe will -return to life. There are' many 'thousands who would like to escape, come to Canada, raise their Tam- ilies under freedom. They will come in . time. The heartbreak of ,two wars in one life -time is too much to bea r. het them rest for a time. Eventually _they will (stale to a free land and learn to love freedom --if only they know what it means. i opened this story with ax record of 1,391,753 immigrants eoming to Canada in the four years 1910, '11, '12 and '13.

To a man, Canadians questioned by The Financial I'ost, prefer the Canadian system of naming can- didates for the office of Prime Min- ister over the U.S. method of choos- ing presidential candidates. 'Il;ut that doesn't mean Canadians have nothing to Learn from the U.S. political' sideshow : we should be on guard against "cheap promo- , tional ballyhoo" creeping into our own system, says one respondent. . Disadl'antages Canadians see in the U.S. system: the size of the show, rather than personal ability can set the standard; unnecessary animosities created . within the parties; preliminary stumping -tends to weaken ultimate election chances; political, chicanery is made easier as is powerful politieal ma- chinery that reaches into all levels • of government. At the same time, it's pointed out, Canadians shouldn't get the idea MILLIONS FOR CIHARITY How does Canadian business de- ride who should get what from the $27 millions a year it's currently giving to charity and other good Causes? asks The Financial Post. To try to bring corporate giving thinking into sharp focus, a nation- wide study Is being planned to start in August, the Post reports. Chairman of the Committee is George M. Bleck, Jr., president, Canadian Breweries. His speech on multiplicity of appeals -his firm hid to deal with 1,411 in one year- opened a lot of eyes. Object of the study, according to • Chairman Black: "to obtain all available facts on corporate giving and the policies, and procedures of 'different companies." This, Mr. Black explained, will enable corporations to review their owil giving experience 'ltnd to revise it in accordance with the present giving record being employed throughout Canada.

GODERICH DODGERS at Judith Gooderhafn Park, Goderich that their own system has no.weak. ness: we are open to "back -room choices" for one thing. One big advantage seen in the American system : the ballyhoo 'serves well to work up public in- terest in. their own affairs. PRESERVING . OUR HISTORY More than .protests are needed if we are to preserve • our historic buildings, warns The Financial Post. First and foremost there must 'he local interest and local pride and a willingness on the part of •souse historically minded local group to snake some real effort at preserva• tion, until national interest has been Sufficiently aroused for the state to take • over. These relies from the past really aren't ours to destroy. We should hold them in trust for generations yet to come.
