Low -slung Wagon
For Stone Removal'
In cases where land contains. •rela-
tively small stones; the removal in
volves ' considerable • hand work. As
yet there appears to be nothing- bet-
ter than a stone boat or a low -slung
wagon for the job, states the publica-
tion of..""Land Clearing," issued.; by-
the
ythe Dominion Department of Agricul-
ture.. A"stone_boat made froth •wood.
or a sheet of steel can be loaded eas-
ily and will carry about 'one-half ton
.of stone. Because the stone boat car-
ries a relatively small load,• it is suit-
able only for hauling short distances.
As• the length of the haul increases,
the , advantage of easy ;. loading be-
comes less important and it is desir-
able to use a wagon to remove the
stone. efficiently,
A low -slung home -built wagon is
made from. the axles •and wheels of
an old. wagon by suspending two logs
11 feet long belowthe axles and about
eight inches from the ground. At the
front the logs are bolted together and.
suspended from the centre of the
front axle with a chain. At the rear,
the legs are spread to the width of
the rear, axle..and.support ed' by• two
`heavy pieces of strap iron which"' go
over the top o1 the axle and fixed to
the logs. at either side. Wooden blocks
are -then fitted between the logs and
the' rear axle. A plank floor is built
on the top of the logs. When loading,
heavy stones, a stout plank may be
used, for rolling the stones on to the
floor which is only , about 14 inches
above the ground.
. The old practice of building many
stone piles in the fields is obsolete
because by such a method the stones
a.re merely shifted and the stone prob-
len is not solved. Numerous stone
-piles and stone-fencesaother than line
fences, restrict the use of labor-saving
farm machinery. Almost any farm
has' a ravine, or depression where
stones can: be deposited and covered
with,earth,`'if desired.
Steel Strike in
-New 'Phase
(By J. H. Gray, `in Winnipeg Free
Press)
With the dispatch of R.C.M.P. to
Hamilton to maintain law and Order,
on the Stelco picket lines, the indus-
trial ."war of, nerves" has entered a
new phase.- ' ° • •
While any analysis of the .situation
as it stands at t"lre moment must be
subject to' innumerable reservations,
it is possible, nevertheless, to make
some basic assumptions.. These are:
1—There is little chance of the
striking steel workers getting 'any-
thing more than 10. cents'an' hour. -
2—The Government is determined
to hold the line on its wage price
,policy, and will not yield to pressure
to settle the . steel strike, "at any
• cost."
3—The •effect of the strike on the
Palladian economy, while serious,'has
,been badly exaggerated 'in this part
of the •country. -
4—Mr. C. H. Millard, the national
director of the United 'Steel. 'Workers'
Union,. and top-drawer C.C.F. labor-
politicio, has got himself into an in-
.extrleable, mess. .
• Seeking A Sack Door
The most - important development
recently, has •been the frantic effort
being made by Mr. Millard'L C.C.F.
and trades union friends to get a
back -door for a 'settlement open for
him. But, Mr., .Millard, by 'calling a
strike with a woefully weak local, by
dodging the War Labor Board, by re-
jecting '.the ' Brockington .formula,'
which would have embarrassed the
Governinent, has sawn limb after' limb
off behind him, That he over -reached
himself in Hamilton cannot be doubt-
ed. He violated the first precept of
an experienced trades unionist—nev-
er call a strike without a strong ma-
jority in the local. At best his union
had a' bare majority. If the picket
lines are opened, it is more than like-
ly that the strike at Stelco Will be
broken.
This, however, is giving the Gov-
ernment serious concern. Many mem-
bers of the cabinet would like to save
the union from destruction, but Mr.
Millard has run out of formulas which
might achieve this. The fact that the.
C.N.R. workers have taken the 10 -cent
int:rease places great responsibility
upon the Government to hold that
line. • Indeed, the "10 -cent rate is rap-
idly becoming the pattern. •
But Mr. Millard, having rejected
this proposal Out of hand, must get
something more to 'justify his post
tion. The odds are he won't get it.

to held its line.
The -acceptance df the C.N.R. un-
ions of 10 -cents added strength. so

the country on that basis.
,What is Millard Up To Now?
Undoubtedly 'mere attention would
be paid to Current 'back -door appeals
G
to the overpment to save the steel-
workers' Hamilton local if anyone
could figure out for ,certain what. Mr:
Millard is, up to. ,, Those who make
these appeals argue that he was driv-
en
riven to calling the strike by Commun-
ist pressure. They, say to the Govern-
ment that: "You 'nay ruin Charlie
Millard, but you'll get something
worse."
While these winds' are still remem-
bered,, Mr. Millard makes a violent
speech to the Hamilton strikers, call-
ing on them to resist' the police.
One comment here was this: "The
trouble with Charlie Millard is that
no one has told him the war is over;
these tactics—paid -dividends during
the war, but -things have changed'
since then."
In looking backward, the Govern-
ment
overnment now realizes that the. Wartime
Prices and Trade Board made a ser-
ious error in not forcing the steel
companies to settle •their labor trou-
bles before granting a price increase.
This, indeed, was the advice which
the cabinet gave to the board. It, fail-
ed, however, to take the advice and
granted the so-called $5 a ton price
increase, before -wages were negotiat-
ed.
egotiated. •
Responsibility:. Not On Government
The Argument that the Government
should Pear the responsibility now
for forcing a settlement carries little
weight. It is pointed but that Cana-
dian Congress of `Labor adopted ` a
policy of refusing to deal with •war,
labor. boards. Then,'when the Govern-
ment .appointed steel ,controllers, the
union forced a strike anyway, and
against the .Government.
All this, however, does not becloud
the fact that there is deep, concern''
everywhere over what happens next
in Hamilton. All the ingredients that
could make for a first-class explosion„
There Are •
Two Ottawas
The 'recent discussion in the House
of Commons on the Government's
plans for a greater Canadian capital
shol,lr d . underline foul Canadians this
fact—there.- are twat a Ottawas. The
first is Ottawa the magnificent, • the
national capital of Canada. 'it is the
Ottawa of Parliament hill, of the truly
magnificent view. It is Ottawa of the
incomparably beautiful driveways, on
which' millions of dollars have been'
spent. I•t is the Ottawa Of the Experi-
mental farm; the Ottawa which as
years pass ,will become something
truly worthy of the people .of this
'country.
-The Other Ottawa
But there Is another Ottawa, Itis
a city of 168,000 people. It is a city
like other Canadian cities save only
in its appalling inferiority. It has all
the marks of •a beaten city, a city
without vision, a city without any con-
scious -realization chat it is' the na-
tion's capital.
Here there is endless talk' enter-
prise, and no sign of it. With it's hot
and .humid summers, no Canadian city
is more in nesd..,of air conditioning.
Yet a single visit to any leading movie
will effectively discourage .further pa=
tronage in 'summer, Itis• doubtful if
prices are . higher anywhere else .iu
Canada, yet -nowhere .is the service
to customers inferior to that of' Ot-
tawa's stored.
Ottawa, tate city, • wants tourists.
Yet. does almost nothing to cater to
their needs. r
•Ottawa, the city of 168,000, doe's not
even have a city hall What impress.:
es outside Canadians is the tact
Ottawa, the city, has failed cou?pl�e-
ly to realize that is Canada's' national
capital. One can see this perhaps
most clearly In its street names.
Here, as the capital of a great and
growing country, Canadians might log-
ically expect to find some awareness
of nationhood and sy-tnbols of the na-
ture of our nation. Yet. from Ot-
tawa's beginning until today it has
behaved precisely as most other cit-
ies behaved.
Its older streets are named' fo'r old
'settlers and Victorian Britons. There
are names in profusion of local gen-
try perpetuated in street names, but
.not a single Canadian province is re-
prerented. Neither are other Cana-
dian cities. 'Save for the rarest of•
exceptions; the great Canadians who
strove so mightily to build this coun-
try are ignored. All the familiar local
trees have been used,' Running wit of
trees and local taxpayers, the street
natnes turned to first names—James,
John, William, etc. They turned to
British belle iett're.
But wily go ---on? Others have worn
themselves out trying' to rouse . the
lethargic City - of Ottawa Into" an
awareness that it is Canada's capital,
but the' overwhelming inertia of the
Place has stymied all such efforts.
Ilut, perhaps now that the Canadian
Governinent has taken steps to en-
large the Federal District Commission
and provide funds for further beauti-
fication, there will be smile progress.
' Beautiful Driveways
' The Commission itself has already
built miles of beautiful driveways. It
might begin making the oapital a
Canadian 'capital by giving names to
these boulevards. There are enough',
of these for a.. beginning,' Surely all
