It was a bloom to ,the pre- dictors of disaster -Who are -often Sus- pected of hoping' for the things they predict: ,It is recogbized, that food can be. hi -Ought to the starving only by breaking- the fetters from world trade. "What is' required no is not a gloomy resignation to an inevitable worsening of the present situation. What is required is a fresh effbrt of will and imagination to achieve our original objective.", This could well be taken at, a lead for all to follow. 7y7... Abbott empha- sized that the war was , not ,won by -giving up, elle!: the first try,' but by continual and -renewed efforts to meet ever-chamiting conditions: • Dominion -Provincial Relations Again The need for change and' flexibility in the respnsibilities of our Federal and Provincial Governments is again shown in tbe demand, from the pack- ing house labor unions that' the negd tiations for settlement of their strike be carried out on a "'national" basis. AS this is being written three prov- inces have agreed to transfer their "rights" •to the federal government so that.•this, can be don. The premiers of one of the largest' provinces (Que- bec) has warned the federal govern- ment against any interference in its "right" with respect to labor negotia- tions. Th,e government ofaantario has made no move to allow federal gov- ernment intervention in a strike that might take meat from the tables even -of our people who do the hardest physical work, our miners, lumber- men and factory workers. The provincial governments of .Quebec and Ontario appear. to fer- get that the welfare -of our people must come above theoretical or- an- cient "rights." The people of all prov- inces are represented in the federal government of Canada and "national" issues can only be handled by a "na- tional" government; To call this "dan- gerous ,centralization" as Premiers Drew and Duplessis are doing, is not facing .the facts of modern life in Canada. . • In the face of this situation the Montreal Gazette (Progressive 'Con- servative), perhaps. -in order to main- tain its position against the duties and authority of the federal government, made the fantastic -"suggestion that the 'provinces should get together themselves in order to _work out a sililution of the strike. To crate a new federal authority. in Canada does net seem a sensible way of meeting I:lath:Mal problems and could only bring disaster to' our ,countxy. •, The Only Road To Harmony There • is agreement among ''the keenest observers here with .the re- cent report. of a well-known writer who i-nterview our Prime Minister. The experience of the last few years has show -i -j that the fundamental prin- ciples outlined by -the Prime Minister are essential for the prosperity and welfare. not only of our industrial workers: but of all our, people. The first of these principles .which Mr. King has always. stressed is that the needs of- the whole community must. always be ranked' above those of labor. management or capital. The next principle is one that should . be carefully. remembered ' to- day when so many politicai ideologies in the world 'wart to "force" -their own peculiar ideas on the commun- ity. It is that there are only two ways to settle any dispute, industrial 'or in- ternation: by force or by peratiasien (consent). This can only be done by men whose attitude is right, by men who honestly and sincerely want., to reach a settlement. Certainly it can never be by a- management .that thinks it should rule by "divine right" or by labor leaders who foment dis- cord for the advancement of their 'own political party or fortunes. , "industry's baSic function is to be the serean•t of llumanity; so should nationality; never vice versa." .The return, to -Canada last week of our Minister .of National Defence, Hon: Breoke Claxton, from a British Empire Conference held in Australia to discuss the Japaiaese peace treaty, has ,stimulated renewed diseussion on our interest in the Far East and in the Japanese peace treaty. At' the opening of the conference Mr. Clakton outlined Canada's inter- ests.
