Absentee Leadership
At the opening of Parliament
when Mr. King was speaking on Mr.
Bracken's election as leader of the
Conservative party, he expressed
the hope that Mr. Bracken would at
once find a seat in the House of Com-
mons as he did not think it wise that
the leader of one of the parties
should not be in his place in the Com-
mons. '
In answer, Mr. Graydon, the act-
ing leader of the Conservative party
in the House, ' rather twitted Mr.
King by observing that the Premier
himself had once been in the same
Position in which Mr. • Bracken was
at .the present time That is quite
true. In fact - that occurred on two
occasions. -
When Mr. King was elected leader
of the Liberal party -in August, 1919,
Parliament was about to meet for its
second session for that year, and Mr.
King did not take his place until
October 23rd, when he was elected
to a seat in Prince Edward Island,
made vacant - by the resignation of
the former Liberal member.
- In the general elections. of Octo-
ber, Mr. King was defeated and
when the House met the first week
in January of the following year, he
was not a member. But by Febru-
ary he was back in the House, hav-
ing been elected for Prince Albert, a
position again created by the resig-
nation of the sitting member.
It will .be noted, therefore, that
never a t- any time could Mr, Sing be
referred to as an absentee leader of
his party. On the other hand, ..it is
reliably reported that Mr. Bracken
does not intenitto seek a seat in Par -
!lament until after the, close of the
present session, and while there . are
many undeniable advantages in the
course he is said to have chosen, it
it is equally well known that many of
bis followers in' the House are not too
enthusiastic about it for reasons that
are also obvious.
In wartime, particularly, it is -a
most unusual procedure for a leader
of a political party to avoid the
House of Commons for a whole ses-
sion, but as we say, -it may have ' its
advantages ti from . a purely party
standpoint By doing so, Mr. Brack-
en will avoid being involved in pub-
lic controversy. In the House ' he
would be on the spot and would
have to meet the discussions and is-
sues as they arose from day to day.
But by being an outsider, he would
miss all the embarrassing issues and
all the embarrassing tumult.
Another very profitable advantage
from the party standpoint would
arise from Mr. Bracken being free
and with time on his hands to get
aboutthe country and become ac-
quainted with the rank and file of
bis party followers and infuse some
real enthusiasm into' an organization
w • ch, for some years, has been dor-
mant, if not dead.
But against these advantages
there weigh many defects. For one
thing, the 'apparent : refusal of Mr.
Bracken to enter Parliament is prov-
' ing more than embarrassing to the
Conservative House members, whose
loyalty to a leader is not being
strengthened by his refusal to lead
them at the present time, and, ap-
parently, for some time to come.
Many feel that as no other political
leader is avoiding that responsibility,
,:why should theirs? . -
Conservative members also re-
member these words of Mr. Bracken
in his speech, of acceptance at the
Winnipeg convention: "I depreciate
the ,departure from Parliamentary
pi ocedure which .has taken place
during the past three years at Ot-
to "' . Argy Unnecessary contempt

An Old Time Main Street
On Saturday afternoon last, Sea -
forth Main Street more nearly re-
sembled a busy afternoon some twen-
ty-five or thirty years ago, than any-
thing we have seen in the interven-
ing years.
From early afternoon to evening .
there was a continuous procession of
teams and ~sleighs, single horses, and
cutters. More horses than have
been seen in many a day—including
fair days.
The reason, of course, traces back
to the " previous week -end storm,
which blocked all the roads and high-
ways. , The highways were plowed
out by the middle of the week, but
on the county and most of the con-
cession roads, motor transport was
entirely out of the question.
But the country people who had
been practically sealed up for a week
had to get their produce out and get
their supplies. Consequently, the
horse came back to its own again,
and Tor one day at least, he was king
of transportation.
Where they all came - from, we
don't know, and where the harness,
sleighs and cutters were resurrected
from is even a bigger speculation,
but they were all there, including
the sleigh bells.
And, considering the number of
people who are not 'buying car lic-
enses this year, and the new gasoline
regulations _that will very strictly
regulate the mileage of those who
will `operate cars, we may reasonably
expect that the appearance of last
Saturday's main street will be dupli-
cated, a good many times during the
months to come.
The question is: Where are we go-
ing to punt the horses up when they
come to town? • And that is a ques-
tion the country people are asking
with increasing insistence these days.
•
Keeping An Army Supplied
Some idea of the enormous job of
keeping the British Eighth Army
supplied during its, pursuit of Rom-
mel's forces in North Africa, can be
gathered from the following figures
released last week by- the British In-
formation. Services:
The road from Cairo to Tripoli is'
fourteen hundred miles long. Over
five thousand tons of water were
needed by the Eighth Army every
day, and most of the supply had to
- come from the Nile River along a
pipe line to Tobruk, and the rest of
the ever -lengthening way by road.
More than three million gallons of
gasoline were delivered at the front,
and about eight thousand tons of
ammunition.
During the artillery preparations
for attack on El Alamein, the field
guns alone fired one million pounds
weight of shellsin an hour.
-- Water, food, gasoline, ammunition
—all these have followed, and kept
pace with an army which has trav-
elled thirteen hundred miles in nine-
ty-one days.
•
Obviously
Referring to his visit to Tripoli,
Prime Minister Winston Churchill,
in the British House of Commons
last week, recalled the directions
which he ' gave General Sir Harold
Alexander last August and said he
now had received the following re-
ply: .
"Sir, the orders you gave hie on
August 15, 1942, have been fulfilled.
The enemy, together with their im-
pediments have been completely
eliminated from Egypt, , Cirenaica,
Libya and Tripolitana: I now await
your further instructions." s
"Obviously," Mr. Churchill com-
inented amid .the' laughter of the
House, We Will have to think of
something else,"

'Said the Peterborough Examiner a
few days ago:
"A prominent Canadian who
died recently left an estate of
nine .million dollars, of which five
>llill}OA hiye gone in succession
duties. His heirs will watch eag-
erly to see what will be done with
this handsome sum --to see" if it
lessens the tax burden at any
point. But will it? Don't be
ridiculous! The idea that the
system of snatching from the rich
lessens the burden on the poor is
a romantic one, exploded long
ago."
Of' course, it won't affect the tax
rate! Forty years ago it would, but
We are now too late for that to hap-
pen. •
In 1941, total expenditure of the
Provincial. Government of Ontario was
over $110 million—in 1901 it was 4
million—quite a difference!
If that five million windfall had
happened in 1901 the debt would
have been reduced by the net 'sum
received or the Province of Ontario
could have been free from taies for
one year — carried forward also a
surplus of close to a million.
This one single item would have
been more than the total expenditure
at that time—now it's not even five
per cent. -.
The _Province of Ontario was almost
debtless at•the beginning of the cen-
tury. In 1941 its outstanding promis-
es to 'pay totalled $629 million. What's
five million dollars to a province with
such generous 'spending capacity?
Chicken feed—that's all! -
Of course, we .have something to
show for it. The highways are better
—we move faster on them. More
money is spent on health—it's pro-
ducing results—our forefathers died
young. The rural graveyards of On-
tario tell that story. Education is
more costly. Whether we get, better
value out of it is a moot question!
In . the old days most boys worked
their way through college—now it's up
to the fathers—they do the work—
but son's on the. hockey team!
Sometimes I am tempted to think
that there was more sound discussion
on a straw stack during a threshing
in the old days than you would be like-
ly -'to find in any similar, group meet-
ing today; there may have been, also

it ' some day—even make the vote
larger:
Now all these things bring one fur-
iously to think. I read a statement a
few days ago by a college professor
suggesting that the price level, after
the war, would be at least 25 per cent.
higher than it is now. I think he's
right. The object of a higher price
level would be to make it easier for
debtors to meet their obligations. We
cannot• continue,; indefinitely, the pol-
icy of making a land fit for debtors
to enjoy! If debts ale to expand more
rapidly than capacity to pay we must
develop, in a democracy, the demand
for a higher°price level—that means
inflation, or speaking economically, a
short spurt of prosperity --then a long
pull up the hill from the bottom.
Thought runs in waves. In the last
war "lease -lend" was unthinkable—,
now we thank of little, else. It,was.
suggested recently' that one means of
retaining full employment after the
war, was to keep on shipping products
regardless of the. receipt of goods in
exchange. Full employment was to
come from turning industry and agri-
culture into a Santa Claus—and mak-
ing Christmas the only day in the
year.
Still it's "a hopeful age. The idea
that we may get rich by . doing noth-
ing—the national dividend idea of
Premier Alberhart, prosper by giving
things away, is far different from the
normal idea of "get and keep"—but
it may mean, in- the end, the disap-
pearance,,,of the millionaire—at least
of the old type, the man who kept
what he got.Still, we may see the
coming of -the new' sera which, after
past wars, always blossomed but . nev-
er yet bore fruit. Delightful, isn't it,
to recall that hope always springs
eternal—that is, in reality the elixir
, of life.

The author of this series, Jim Greenblat, is the Editor of The Sun,
-thriving weekly newspaper published in,Swift Current, Sask. He is a
native of Winkler, Man., and attended public and high schools in Winni-
peg. He moved to Swift Current 33 years ago, -and studied law until the
outbreak of the First Great War. He then served in the Canadian Army
from 1915 to 1919, and was wounded in France. He has been in the
weekly newspaper business since 1923, and is a' past president of the
Saskatchewan division of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association.
At home, he writes a sprightly column for the Sun, called "Swift
Current Through the Looking Glass," in which he has developed the high-

Before leaving Ottawa, he left one postscript on a brief bit of biogra-

for a better world in this way and
