The three-day • meeting will centre around discussions of the • problems facing the industry and sessions will be held with repre- sentatives of -advertisers and agen- cies and the Audit Bureau +of • Circulation. Highlighting the • dis.cussions, both formal-. and informal, will be the matter, of better 'promotion of the weekly newspapers as an im- portant medium for local and na- tionaj advertisers: • • This is expected to bring official sanction by delegates for the in- auguration and support of a full- time promotion and public rela- tions department in the CWNA national offices in Toronto. According to; William Telfer, CWNA managing director, promo - !ion of ,.weekly newspapers as an important medium will go .a long way towards increasing revenues thereby assisting many weeklies now finding it hard to hold adver- tising and 'subscription rates at present levels and still meet rising costs. Combined circulation of the Eng, lish weeklies in Canada has now passed the 1% million mark, Mr. Telfer said. A , number of national associa- tions and companies will entertain delegates at various luncheons and the Government of Ontario will give a dinner.

No haiin ever came to anyone frotn believing this, because no one' ever believed "it strongly enough to put it to 'the test. But .belief in the Indian rope trick is no more fantastic than be- lief -in the doctrine being propagat- ed among the workers by the labor leaders of today. And the workers are believing it as gospel truth. The similarity between the two 'beliefs is easily seen. The rope on which the workers are being told they can climb to greater prosperity is the ever increasing wage rates they are being urged to demand. And the source from which -this greater prosperity is to come is just as vague and just as unsubstantial as that which is expected to hold the rope „upright while the juggler climbs it. Why are the workers so ready to accept the theory of the union • leaders, and to risk their own jobs in trying it out, while they reject the pretensions of the juggler? It is because the union" leaders pro- mise them something for nothing, which is an art the juggler has not yet acquired. Not many of us can resist the temptation to fall Tor stia pronifses.
