When the official opposition, allied- on lliedon this occasion with the C-C.F., de- termined on a policy of what, in ef- fect, was rule by riot, they were at- tempting to achieve by confusion, delay, and pressure, what they had not been able to achieve. by the • regular processes of democracy. Denied the right to propose legisla- tion by the vote of Canadians, the opposition minority persisted in denying to Parliament the oppor- tunity to consider legislation. The rules of Parliament have been de- termined on through the years as a means of furthering business of parliament. By considering t h e rules as an end in themselves, the opposition brought the busi- ness of the House to a standstill. It was at this point that the Govern- ment, in order to protect Parliament and the rights of the majority, had no alternative but to employ other sections of the same rules designed for just such a purpose. As a speaker has pointed out: "Under our Parliamentary rules, the minority has all the opportunity for free discussioi , but it is given no right to objstruction. The rules of the House are devised to protect mii ori - i v5 • against oppress !u of une ma jof'ity,: and the ma1:jrity against ob- struction by tie minority. "The very foundation of aur demo- cratic system is the will of the people, as it is represented by the majority. Rule by the minority is nothing but dictatorship."

While theological differences .re- main, there is, generally speak- ing, a better religious atmosphere. Through radio and television, both Roman Catholics and Protestants have a wide acquaintance with church usages and customs other than their own.

The Roman Cfi"tholic Churchis at present engaged in a world - girdling family prayer crusade, which originated in the Diocese of London, and has returned to the same Diocese. The form of Cath- olic family piety through the use of the Rosary is foreign to Protest- ant modes of family worship, and probably not well understood by Protestants. But they can sym'- pathiye with the stress which is being placed on family worship, and the slogan, "The family that prays together, stays together," will find a response in hearts out- side the 'Roman Communion. Ready For Open House Paint brushes, lawn mowers and ether housekeeping hardware are being flourished in high gear at R.CA.F.

Profit provides the money fro]li which dividends to shareholders or owners are paid. Any enterprise that year after year disburses all of its profits in dividends is headed for financial trouble., eg Prudence dictates that a portion of each year's profits be retained and used in the business. These retained earnings enable a business to pay at least a part of the cost of the constant need for better equipment and additional capacity. Profits are necessary for business growth. And business growth creates more jobs. Thus profits retained in a growing business benefit employees, shareholders and customers.
