On Monday evening Seaforth Bosh - arts took their twelfth straight league game when they defeated Clinton 19 to 9. Both teams played poor ball all night and were not up to the usual better games, The game was late in starting as tire visitors had a time to round out a team. Both teams agreed on a seven -inning game. B. O'Shea held the visitors, down most of the way except in the second frame when they scored six runs. Seaforth scored five in the first, four in the second and the third big frame was the nab, 'when they pushed across 7 big runs. Boussey hit a double, B. Smith a triple, and Woods a homer. Kings- well for the visitors clouted a two - base hit. Madsen, pitching for Clin- ton, issued four walks and had 14 hits.

Ivany Goes to Weston In charge of the Salvation Army in Seaforth for the past four months, Lieut. E, J, Ivany has been transfer- red to Weston, and will leave for his new post on Friday. He will he suc- ceeded here by Captain Dorothy George, of Toronto. Since coming to Seaforth, Lreut. Ivan has taken an active interest in various activities and has done much to indicate the place which :the Sal- vation Army can occupy in a com- munity. Interested in athletics, he was in 'charge of the "Sally Anns," an entry in Legion -sponsored juvenile softball league. The outstanding suc- cess which was attained in the re- cently completed Red Shield cam- paign was in no small measure due to his organizing ability, and to the manner in which he -presented the appeal to the public.

She was a member of the Presbyter- ian Church, Cromarty. The funeral will be held 'from her late residence on Friday, with Rev. McWilliam offic- iating. Interment will be in Staffa cemetery. The Budget And After (By R. J. Deachman) 'More than a month has passed away since the budget was brought down. It has met with a mixed reception, a storm of approval and disapproval. It's my guess that the total weight of the former would exceed the weight of the latter but, in virulence of tone and expression—this is a horse laugh —thd neighs have it! A substantial surplus used in liquid- ation of debt is a barrier against in- flation. We have the evidence of Sir Stafford Cripps, a wise man, a sane economist, but in the wrong party. He budgeted this year for a surplus of $1,320,000,000 as the surest method of combating inflation. 'Most econ- omists would support this point of view. So too would farmers and busi- ness men. They know from experi- ence that debts can get out of hand, that a touch of Scotch frugality, a de- sire to bold the debt within controll- able limits, is a virtue not a vice in a Minister of Finance. We are told that Mr. Abbott refus- ed to cut taxes because be felt that if the people spenttheir own money it would be inflationary, but if he took it from them in taxes and let the government spend it, all would be well. There is no truth in that asser- tdon. The money was taken to retire debts. Mr. Abbott could'have-cut tax- es, it would have made him a popular hero.

Sizes 1 to 12 years at 3.95 SienneZzto find a cabinet minister who would rather be right and condemned than wrong and approved. It would be folly to reduce taxes while the national income was at the highest level'of all time and the debt inflated by six years of war. Mr. Ab- bott knew the facts; here is a very pertinent' one. "After deducting indirect taxes in- cluded in the price of goods and ser- vices and business costs, such as de- preciation, the net income accruing to Canadians during 1947 is estimated at $10.8 billion, two and a 'half times as much in doMar terms as in 1939. All types of home shared in these in- creases."—From page 4, Appendix to the Budget. The highest national income in our history was in 1947; goods were scarce, money was abundant. To re- duce taxes would be highly inflation- ary; a modern minister of finance no longer uses kerosene for putting out fires. If we were to attack the debt prob- lem, this was the occasion for it. The honeymoon may soon be over. This does not necessarily imply that a de- pression is on the way. It means on- ly that we must face the realities of life—the odd morning when the por- ridge is cold and the car won't start. The reduction of debt, through its de- flationary influence, may bring down the cost of living. When the debt is down and a steak costs less, heaven- ly days will be here again. Sound business plows back each year a part of its profits. Why? It is the only way by which 'costs of production may be lowered and real earnings of labor increased. Capital increases the efficiency of production. Should it not be a part of the wisdom of governments to do the same thing? We are living in an age when the supreme desire is an increase in per- sonal income with not a thought for the future of the nation, It was not by ignoring realities that our industrial pioneers laid the foun- dations of Canadian industry. They sought to strengthen their capital position. They invested for the fu- ture. Now our assets are wasting away. Farm lands are deteriorating, forests are being. destroyed, the dykes are breaking. 'There are many wliys of improving our position. By building up new as- sets, by reduction of debt, by looking at this country as a great estate and firmly resolving that, come what may, we shall leave it richer than we found it. Whatthen should be our policy in the years which, lie before us. We should continue to reduce the nation- al debt so long as we retain present levels of employment, Taxes should 4 ttt be lowered as the interest burden de- clines. Federal encouragement should .be given to certain definite construc- tive proposals: irrigation, flood con- trol, protection of our forests against fires, reforestation of burnt out lands and afforestation of large areas in On- tario and other provinces. We give scant consideration to the things which matter most. Our con- structive effort consists of transfer- ring goods from one group to another. It curses those who give and those who receive. It concentrates effort on the division of the national income in- stead of on the one thing• which really- matters, eallymatters, the capacity of an intelli- gent people to increase production. "Do you think there is any moneys in literature?" "Loads of it," said the man with a genial air of prosperity. "In, fact, I can personally testify that there is." "I didn't know you were a writer." "I'•m not. I'm an architect. I make a specialty of designing library build- ings.
