In fact, a working arrangement between the church and the Govern- ment seems probable.

The Soviet regime has hitherto worked on the theory that, while the adults were committed to relig- ious belief, the younger generation might he wholly emancipated from it. So they have `closed down the Sunday schools, and the parochial schools have been requisitioned. In all the schools, in fact., atheism is taught, and irreligious instruction is a part of every school day for the youngsters.

ADDRESS OF FARMERS' SUN PRESIDENT The following is the address of Col, J. Z. Frazer, President of the Farm- ers' Sun Publishing Company, pre- sented to the shareholders at the annual meeting of the Company held in Toronto on Tuesday of last week: ladies and Ceutlemen:—In pre- senting to you, as stockholders of the Company, my fourth annual re- port, I must again congratulate you on the financial success that has at- tended your Cutrtpany during the year just passed. A year ago I ad- vised you to be prepared to receive a less favorable report in this re- spect than in the past, due, as I then intimated, to inercased costs of publication and postage, items which enter largely in the costs of news- papers. This ineretise in these two items alone during the year just passed as compared with the prev- ious year amounts to $8,764.88, and as these increased rates have only entered into the hest six months of the past year, it will show a much larger figure of increase in the next twelve months. Our increase in postage alone has gone up from $3,300.88 to $7,582.75, or an increase of over 125',. The postage for the past six months shows an increase over the corresp'ending six months of last year of $2,735.05, or $628.44 more than the entire postage for that period, or much more than doubled. The revenue from subscriptions the past year amounted to $52,317.13, and from advertising $79,746.43, or a total from all sources of 3132,- 1163.56. The total expenditure amounted to, after setting aside for loss on unpaid subscriptions, and had debts, of $7,555.84, to 1128,- 052.67, leaving a balance to Profit and Loss of $3,110.89. A dividend of seven per cent., the maximum amount allowed, has been provided for, which, after providing for every contingency, will leave a balance of $:1,076.74 to lie carried forward to the credit of I'rniit and Loss Account, The usual amount of $1,913.43 has been written off organization ex- penses, leaving a balance of $3,725.86 of the original amount of $9,607.15 still to he retired. The I'olltu•d Aling Mailing Sys- tem has been installed in the utiles at an expense of $3,075.23, which is expected to effect a very great sav- ing, when in full operation, over the old system, our increase in circula- tion necessitating the change. Commencing from the first of February last year your paper has been issued three times a week. In this ,connection two years ago in my report to you, I drew attention to the clamior of the farming public to the demand of a more frequent issue of the Sun, but in view of the, in- creased costs of publication, your directors did not deem it wise then to embark in a more frequent issue, and though :hey have now complied with the request, personally I am not in favor of such procedure; time, however, will show the wisdom or otherwise of the course, but the last ight years have been a "Graveyard" many once promising journals, as no less than thirty, -eight daily newspapers have gone out of existence in that time, to say noth- ing of scores of weeklies in this country, large urban centres as well 1:8 ttnaii ones having suffered alike ie this respect. With the -weaken- ing of newspaper leadership, which i. becoming more and more appar- ent, men are beginning to think more far themselves, which will have a beneficial effect on the country. In spite of the many failures of dailies there is, in my opinion, no more profitable field for one than a "Farmers' Daily."

A. Crockett, M.P.P.,. and three members of the U.F.O., very few being stockholders, it is neces- sary for me to deal with this matter. On two previous occasions during the past year attempts have been made to discredit the tried and faith- ful leaders of the Farmers' Move- ment, but without success. Farmers cannot be stampeded by disgruntled members or dismissed inefficient employees, but for downright treachery std ingratitude nothing before has equalled this latter at- tack. The circular of the 18th of August last teems with untruths, but the crowning act of infamy was the unsigned circular letter sent out on the 29th of August. In all classes of society, as well as newspaperdom, the most despised man is the anonymous letter writer, the sneak who has not the courage to come bodly out, but strikes from ambush. However, the attack was of very shallow planning and de- ceived few. I do not blame the eight members of the Committee; I only pity them. They were only the monkeys pulling the chestnuts out of the fires, none of them could write such a circular, not having any knowledge of analyzing financial re- ports. The author dare not show himself.Much stress is laid on the item of $14,805.58, net earnings of date six months ending 31st Janu- ary, 1922. This item, of late (I having been very ill when this audit was made and till long after), has been discussed by me with the auditor, pointing out its inconsist- ency to him, who has explained to me over his signature how this item occurred, and which does not reflect creditable management. The truth is that the profits in question are very much smaller, if there was not an actual deficit. It is not yet definitely decided what action will be taken against these parties, but doubtless a salu- tary lesson will he taught them which will discourage attacks of like nature un our organization in future. A Crisis. The Committee, which for a better name we will style the Parliamentary Committee, in their circular letter to you, has stated that it was to prevent a grave crisis which was impending that caused the formation of this Committee, but they failed to inform you what that crisis was. Your directors have failed to discover what was meant by the term, hut have come to the conclusion thatthe only crisis at present in view is the likelihood of an approaching election, in the not distant future, and a number of members of this body will not even get the nomination convention of their constituency, to say nothing of those who will suffer defeat, and it was perhaps considered by therm necessary to secure at all costs the control of_theSun to put on a pro- paganda of false representation to minimize, if possible, the impending disaster to them, I notice we have a few stock- holders present from the City of Toronto, some of them alleged to he representing several of the city dailies. Some of these men used subterfuges to secure their stock holdings, but your directors were quite cognizant of their identity, and welcome their accession to our ranks, as we have nothing to hide from our city brethren. We know, like ourselves, on their joining us, they will become imbued with our spirit and united with us will learn that our movement stands for the uplift of Canadian manhood, mother- hood and childhood. United we will place agriculture on this lofty plane it is destined to fill, which will pre- vent the creating of a peasantry, which has been the curse of so many countries, being foisted on this con- tinent. With these conditions brought about, depression and unem- ployment in our cities will he un- known and slums will be foreign to them. In closing, I want to say that the success that has attended your Com- pany has not been altogether due to the sane and wise policy of your directors and management, but is very largely due to the Loyal and unswerving support that has come from our farmer stockholders and the rural public. generally ; and if jou are alive to your best interests you will jealously guard and keep control of your paper, the greatest factor for success in your movement to -day, and always remember in the history of political movements, the insatiable lust for power, which seems to fasten on every leader, has, in every instance, caused them to depart from the paths of true fidelity to their constituents. Watch your lead- ers, or your interests will be jeopar- dized. All of which is respectfully sub- mitted. J. Z. FRAZER. Toronto, Ont., Sept. 5, 1922.
