The three-day • meeting will

sessions will be held with repre-
sentatives of -advertisers and agen-

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.

One would have thought that.01,k)
un
moderate their demands ,for wage
•• increases: But no such thing IS
happening. •-In fact the Obticers
are being urged by their 'leaders
to increase their demands and to
'press them with all the power
they, haiie.
TheY are being told that this IS
the sure cure for unemployment
because higher wages for those
who are working •will increase
their purchasing power and enable
them to buy more goOdS,' the pro,

We, have known People who be-
lieved it.„ possible for a man to
thrOw the end of a rope straight
up in the air and then to climb
the rope. 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.

when more money is paid for the

worth more to labor than a 'dollar
