EXCLUSIVE NEW YORK TIMES WORLD NEWS In The Globe and Mail foreign 'correspondents of the famous New York Times staff bring you latest, moat . authentic .news from every part of the world :.. items and articles written by men who know news and bring it to life in Canada's moat progressive newspaper. "In this particular case there is a situation in which It means clear that one pt the parties to-. the dispute 'sought to dominate the other, and un- fortunately, both parties seen; to have ignored the interests of the state and of the public." , • • This was the revealing statement in 'a report on a' strike of Winnipeg printers, by W. D. Card, of Portage la Prairie. .The report was written 'by Iidr. -Card .as industrial commissioner in an; impartial• report 'to. the Domin- ion Minis_ter_.ef Jabot r, -- Hon. C. D.. Howe, Canada's Minis- ter of Reconstruction, also spoke out forcibly,and plainly 'on the events .of the last six weeks when he opened a higher, powered' radio Station' at 'Sud- bury, Ontario: • "The problems -of postwar • recon- struction 'in Canada are being 'made impossible by 'labour' disFputes, "The differences between.labour and management are far too small to war- rant the- time lost ,by the workers. "It seems to me to be impossible that this senseless strike in Canada's basic industry can• last much longer,"' What is the answer? While this column is being written. Parliament . is discussing the report of •its committee „on .°industrial rela.= tions" which sat 'for' three. weeks and heard evidence from all sides -labour, industry and elected representatives of the general public. One thing em erged--clearly from the evid,an ence d the debate:- There is n� single or sim- .p1e solution to the problem. Some indication of where we must look far -an answer 'did appear: (1) The'interest of. the general pub- lic (consumer) must be the first and paramountconsideration and labour and management must both recognize this. Both ownership and employment Must be considered a pyblic 'trust. (2) .That employees must have full and fair opportunities rto' enter into managerial positions, to have a voice in deciding• working conditions, and to know the facts 'and problems .of the -business in• which they are em- ployed. ' Many' contend that • if labour were given, in addition " Co its wages, a share iri the profits it helped to cre- ate it -would bean effective step this direction. ...politics and Personalities Not everyone is interested in the prospects•of Mr. Walter Tucker, M.P., in his, new role as Leader -of the Lib- eral party in Saskatchewan,. but a'i or almost all; 'are interested in a lead- ing. article which ' Saskatchewan's largest daily, the "Regina Leader - Post," runs -on Mr. Tucker's- family: Of the :fourth trip which Mrs..Tuck- er and family took • from Rbstehn to, Ottawa, 'the Leader -Post sane. 'rTrav- `elling on a train for two days and two nights with nine children' would be a harrowing and nerve-wracking experience to most people; but not to A'/Irs. Waiter Tucker. The answer is that she loves children, the more the merrier." 'Meals must be prepared for twelve in the Tucker home. "It keeps me. busy'and I enjoy it," Mrs. Tucker told the, reporter. "You wonder -how you are going' to get along with nine youngsters,' but things seem to .lit in and eyery+thing works out pretty well." Mrs. .T-ucker laughed as she reeled off the names and. ages of be',' family. They are three girls and six boys, the oldest sixteen, the youngest two. , Careers For Women • Of interest to young• women who are.._considerin.g the question of a car-• eer, is a study ,of .the directdry of personnel of the Civil Servide in Can- ada. •' There are, of course, thousands of clerks in the service, and these come and go -or remain doing a necessary job. But in this service also are, ox' have been, women"with special train- ing, doing good work along special lines, of. whom little is known: • There was recently, for instance, in the department of External Affairs, - 'a young woman lawyer, acting as jun- ior legal adVIaaer.

''"Hen Housed" and Other Records • The reason that what are known as "Hen Housed' Records" are used as an index for determining family and flock egg production in the Canadian Record of Performance is because they give the most informa- tive and accurate indication of economic efficiency. The.,method con- sists. of dividing the total number of eggs laid in a. year by the number of birds placed in the house at the commencement of the laying •period. The method. includes -liveability and- gives ndgives credit for persistency of pro- -duction-:beyend...-other systems. AI. the, same time, it is :pointed out that if excessive mortality or culling occurs it" is apparent in the ' production record of the flock or family group. Two other, methods in common• use' are: (1) -Survivor Records, and (25, Hen. Day Records. In the Survivor" Records system,, only .the average egg. production is given of the hens left' in 'the house a't• the end of the year. No account tis -taken of culling or mortality, resulting, in- a high average production of little signi'fi'cance:'. In the. -Hen Day ,R,ecords, culling is also permitted. The fot'al number df eggs` laid is divided by the total number ()hien days -that is, the total of all the days • the.. ben -was in the. house. This gives the average daily percent-. age production; which,., multiplied by 365, gives ,the average yearly produc- tion. Iron on Sods Best For Anaemia in Pigs • In view of the 'fact .that the ques- tion of how best to administer iron to young pigs as a preventive of anaemia is still discussed by several hog rais- ers, the results of experiments carried 'out by the` Animal Husbandry Divi - scion, Experimental Farms Service, for the control of that- disease should prove helpful. In experiments dealing with the control d'f anaemia, four treatments were carried out with three litters each. Reduced iron, pow- dered ferrous su1'phate•;•; ferrous sud- pi ate solution on sods, and ferrous engaged., in. fossil research. With the National Film Board' are women editors and research workers. A woman is in charge of rata} -dis- tribution of films and one of the best producers is a woman. . , The Department of National Health and Welfare are most anxious for more qualified social workers, and for graduate nurses. Perhaps to our surprise we find in the 'Department of `Transport a wb man' in charge of Marine agencies and another the chief' registrarT of shipping, - t:L ther departments, are qualified women statisticians and eccrnomdst' and a field is open ,here for those w;th special training. 4 Rev. A. R. Looby, C.8.B., son ofMrs. A, M, Looby, Dublin, and the late Louis J. Looby, who was ordained in Toronto. on August 15 by Cardinal J. C. McGuigan. -Father Lobby celebrated his 'first Solemn Mass -At 'St, Patrick's Church, Dublin, on Sunday, Aug., ust 18.; sulphate solution painted on the sow's udders were the treatments studied. The weights of the pigs, the mortal- ity from birth to weaning, and tests of the hemoglobin content of the blood were the facts collected. A check lot of pigs received no treatment.. i due of the oustanding features of the results. was the superiority of the treated' pigs both in weight thrift, and lack of mortality compared with those' that" received no treatment • Among the various,.,treatments, 'the results of the experiment indicated that ferrous sulphate 'solution on ' sods was the best. Next in order, and in fact a close.second; was powdered ferrous sulphate.' Of lesser value, as indicated -by the results of the test were reduced iron given on the tongue, and ferrous sulphate painted on the sow's udders. Possibly, suggests.,the Division, one explanation for the.. good results with ferrous sulphate.solution on sods. was that the pigs bad a supply of iron continually available to them. From the experimental point Of view, it is interesting that the lot of pigs given sods was. superior to the others and it is also a valuable 'finding from the practical -standpoint -that so simple a treatment for anaemia - asferrous sulphate solution on sods should prove a good preventivie • treatment •for 'anaemia in young pigs.' ' Turnip Feed Tests • The results of- recent tests on sheep on the- digestibility of turnip `and silage and of hay?' turnips;'nnd corn alone indicate that the turips were highly digestible and exceeded the digestibility of,. corn silage. How- ever,states the Division of Chemis- try, Science Service., Dominion De: partment of Agriculture, in view of the moisture content of the turnips. it is evident that the turnips and corn silage have about the same feeding 'value per unit weight as feed. A' Flower Oddity Seeing :is .believing. and we saw bowers. of two distinct colors bloom- ing on the saarre stock. it was --a holly- hock in the fiow.er garden of Herb. Sullivan Brussels. At the time it was noticed there were only two blootps Left on the stalk. One at. the top was a delicate peach' shade, while farther down the same stal.k was a deep red bloom, In • the 'large clump of holly- hocks this one had not been prev- ' iously• noticed and it -is not known whether the other blooms on' the stalk - had been •of both colors or if there was only one odd bloom. or which was the gild color.. Not being an auth-. oi••it-y on tiow•ers we would now like someone to tell us if thi's is a rare occurrence. as we think, or does it happen more or less frequently `due to i,ollination by bees. -Brussels Post.
