A good example of the shortaighted
.VieWs that have so often blocked Canadian progress in the pao is contain -1
ed in the following short editolia
clipped from one of 01.11' contempor-
aries. It -reads:
"Why should all the people of Can-
ada have to chip in to help pay for
the coal 'used. by some people in On-
tario? The coal users of. Ontario
'have most of this world's goodf ex-
cept, coal' right at home. The coal
users of Ontario are the most wealthy
of Canada's population. Why should
they net pay for their coal? 'Yet the
Ontario Government and the Domin-
ion Government combine to pay a -
large part of the coat of supplying
Ontario rieople with coal. If they
loelp others pay for coal why wit help
-me ..pay for wood?" ,
A five -cent piece held near enough
to the-eyo will shut out a_whole land.
scope of dbieets far and near. And
in the history of our country a small,
innnediate and personal loss has of-
ten blinded us to -a broad view of
eational progress that would have
meant great ulthnate profit to us, not
only as a nation, but to, eery- indi-
vidual in Die eamtr-Y`.. In the aboV'e quoted editorial we
presume that our contemporary has
reference to the proposal to subsi 'ze
either the coal mines or ,the rail ays
to assist them in, sending .coal from
Alberta or Nova Scotia. to Ontario
and pitthec, or to the proposal ticiat,
the 'publicly owned Canadian National.,
Railways shall be asked to eaiiry the
coal either without a profit or at a
loss in order that Canadian coal shall
be used in the Central provinces.
"Why should all the -people of Can-
• ada. help ±0 pay for coal used by some
.of the people of Ontario ?a Well, if
all:the coal used in Canada were
• mined in Canada, it would mean that
