ting for a charming summer bridal

sall, who sang the Lord's Prayer be-
fore the ceremony, and Mrs. P. Dur-

ister. The bride, lovely in her pure
white satin gown,entered the church
on tie arm of Thomas L. Pryde,
M.L.A., of Exeter, a •personal friend
of the family, who gave her in mar-
riage. Her gown fashioned with lace
inserts, was styled with a sweetheart
neckline with sleeves tapering to
points. A halo of orange blossoms
held her floor -length veil of embroid-
ered net, and she carried an arm bou-
quet of white carnations, roses and
fern. A single strand of pearls, the
gift of the groom, completed' her cos-
tume, Four attendants preceeded the

feta, the skirt failing in graceful tiers.

inghigh voltage wires, ploughed
across a road and through a fence,
finally coming to a stop when one
sunk partially in the ground. Gangs
of men have been working an the
scene and one tanker has been re-
moved. The other, still three feet in
the ground, presents a problem to
the men and a afire hazard still, lurks.

by Ottawa observer
With ,three federal by-eleeltions and.
the Ontario provincial election over,
political interest here now centres on
the provincial election in Saskatche-
wan on June 24. it is considered cer-
tain that New Brunswick will return
a Liberal government when its elec-
tion is held on June 28.
The Government's Strategy
One of the main reasons for inter-
est in Saskatchewan is that the Slat
Socialist government of Perth Amer-
ica is on trial after a four year re-
cord. The Socialist premier predicts
the bitterest campaign in the history
of the province. So far the moat ex-
treme and vitriolic statements have
come from the Socialist premier him-
self. All the old catch phrases used
by Socialists and Communists every-
where are being paraded in Saakat-
chewan as serious statements. So-
cialist Premier Douglas claims his is
a "peoples" government. Everyone
who opposes or criticizes it is an en-
emy of the "people." As usual the
Socialist leaders claim to be the only
honest and sincere personalities in
the province.
Tucker's Campaign
The Liberal leader's, campaign is
watched closely here. The Socialists
obtained power on the usual Social-
ist promise to "soak the rich" for the
benefit of others. Mr. Tucker is able
to show that greatly increased So-
cialist expenses have been taken
from the farmers, workers and small
:business men.
One of the principal promises of
the Socialist bidding for power in
1944 was the repeal of the 2 per cent
education tax. The promise was not
kept, only some adjustments were
made in the tax.
Saskatchewan's loss, of population
under Socialism is perhaps the most
difficult for the C.O.F. government
to explain. 'While the provinces on
each side make gains, the Socialist
'province is losing all of its natural in-
crease and thousands of its basin
population.
The Liberal leader's plans for the
province include a wide measure of
farm electrification, improvement and
expansion in social services and more
democratic municipal and- school ad-
ministration. The Socialists are ob-
viously vulnerable on their records
with respect to roads and schools.
New Business
Fifteen hundred exhibitors from 32
different countries have space at the
Canadian International Trade Fair,
which opened its doors in Toronto
last week. Buyers and other business
men from sixty countries will as-
semble to view the wide variety of
products on display, many of these
visitors coming to Canada for the
first time in an effort to establish
closer commercial relations that may
ultimately result to a return to multi-
lateral trade. This is the first fair of
its kind to be held in North America,
a fact in itself that has aroused the
curiosity of many men and women un-
familiar with conditions in Canada
and the United States. The full facili-
ties of the fair are being placed at
the disposal of those who are princi-
pally concerned in buying and sell-
ing.
Many problems are involved at
present in the free exchange of com-
modities, not the least of , which are
the import and exchange controls
that many countries have been forced
to impose 'by reason of their short-
age of hard currency. These difficul-
ties will be discussed by businessmen

Eight assistant trade commission-
ers. having completed their training
at headquarters in Ottawa' and toured
all Canadian Provinces, will arrive
shortly in the foreign countries to
which they have been posted. They'
will •ighten somewhat the •burden of
t: 'de commissioners who have been
pr. moting the interests of Canadians
with an ever-increasing appreciation
of the importance of foreign trade in
the national economy of our people.
These assistant trade comenissi in
et•s go to Portugal, England, New Zea -

Last week ;beard, a great deal of
discussion and speculation on -the -sig
niacance of the Socialist wins in
three byeelectione. One question de-
bated at length was "To what extent.
did Communist support contribute to
C.C.V. successes?"
In Oshawa, the principal city of On-
tario
ntario riding, the national secretary of
the Communist or Labor Progressive
Party, made a personal appearance in
support of the C.C.F. candidate. He
spoke in the Trade Union Hall which
is controlled by the O.I.O. Unions.
The C.C.F. eandidate did not even
pretend to repudiate his support and
there was every appearanee of full
to -operation between the •Communists
and the C.C.F. party.
In all three by-elections the Lib-
eral Party candidate came second andi
the Progressive Conservative last.
It' is noted that the principal C.C.F.
gains in the Ontario provincial elec-
tion were made in Toronto which is
the headquarters of the L.P.P. (Com-
munist) Party.
Canada's Exports
One-third of the income of every
Canadian is dependent directly or in-
directly on external trade. In view
of Canada's dependence on foreign
trade for her welfare, it is interesting
to note the progress we are making
as a nation.
