much interest in the tariff, It is, to
Its way of thinking, relatively unim-
portant, and.; "the •debate concerning
it '"largely obsolete," (See 1933 mani-
festo).
Mr. Bryce, speaking for 'himself and
his party, :proclaims' that the basic
policy of the C.C.P. "is, and always
has been/ so far as the farmer is con-
•derned, "the removal of the tariff bur-
den • from the operations of 'agricul-
ture." A' fairly thorough search of
C.C.F. pronouncements fails to reveal
where Mr. Bryce has got this quota-
tion. It does not appear in the major
C.C.F. manifesto of 1933. That docll-
went offers instead the formation of
apo& and export boards for band-
Ifiiig'Mtjor commodities and the con-
trol by license ,hof minor exports and
imports, in oth`r words a totalitarian
regulation of international trade of
which the world had plenty before'
1839 and which proved tb be an im-
inortant: factor in bringing on the war.
In the -following year, 1934, the C.

the slightest mention ,of, the'tar1i , or.
of lifting the tariffbud off the.
farmer. 'There is, •however, 'an e;rn,
phatic itrirono n'cem,ent that, under Pe
circumstances whatever must OaJ)ad.a
engage iu war, . The change of Heart
on that subject may oon eivably ;have
been 'accom'.paztied by a change of
heart about the tariff, but the record
is not there to back it up.
The bulk of Mr. Bryce's letter is
taken. up with citing • instances in
wiic`"h the tariff burdens t'he farmer,
the idea being to .prove that the Lib
c-rala.do not reduce the tariff. The re-
cord—always a safe thing to go by—
shows progress, and shows moreover
a constant° -and unremitting attention
by the Liberal party to the tariff, di-
recting to getting the, barriers down;
and .all that the Free Press said was
that it would be useful •to add to the
Liberal representation at Ottawa a
man so devoted to tariff reduction as
Mr. Fillmore.
There is -nothing in the record of
the C.C.F. to suggest that its western
meml5ers' will dedicate themselves, as
:
�'estern Liberal members have done,
to getting rid of, the restrictions on
international trade. Its emphasis has
always been upon internal tinkering
with the economy, coupled with the
fantastic idea that an iron -clad state
morioboly of exports and imports is
the best way to maintain existing
markets and open .fresh ones. The
idea is fantastic because it is clear
from many C.C.F. pronouncements

gramme.
The western•. farmer is unlikely to
be seduced by these meretricious
_promises. He is a practical man
whose attention is seldom diverted
from ilia constant need for overseas
markets. He knows that the tariff is
an obstacle, and that after t'he war,
as before it, the tariff will remain a
central issue. Wisdom suggests that
he should •support candidates whose
record on the tariff is clear, just as
wisdom, has suggested to Mr. Bryce
that free trade, far from being a "red
herring," is something he had. better
'be in favor of quickly, if he wants
farm support.

Summer holidays mean long hours
ofoutdoor play for the children. Their
active little bodies are on the go from
morning till night and when they are
quiet and still for a few moments,
Mother knows it's usually because
they are busily devising some new
activity, and that in a few minutes
they'll be off again in another whirl-
wind Of activity.
How the children do grow in the
summer time! They seem to add
inches almost overnight.
According to Nutrition Services the
child's food needs in summer may be
even greater than they are in winter
when he spends more time indoors
and his physical activity, is at least
parrtly restrained during school 'hours.
As well as needing plenty of en-
ergy -giving foods in the summer, chil-
dren may need extra calcium too. Cal-
ciuum is required to build strong bones
and the need of it is greatest when
the child is growing fastest.
Milk ranks highest ,of all foods as
a source of calcium. Without milk
.and cheese it is almost impossible
for an adult to get all the calcium ho
requires and quite impossible for a
child.
