There was some encouragement for
Canadians in the news at the end of last week.
A hope that there may be some improvement
in the economic situation. Stock markets on
Wall Street In New York and Toronto Bay
Street had a decided increase in activity and
hank interest rates dropped. We were
warned, however, to not expect notable
improvement for some time. It will not have
much influence on the economy for at least
twelve to eighteen months. Nor is it expected
to ,change the unemployment situation in
sectors where it is most needed.
*********
On a shopping trip with my Ottawa
fancily we visited the Loblaw Superstore. It is
an immense building (a city block) that
specializes in bulk food advertised as sold at
wholesalclpricee, There is a large variety of
these, Everything that can possibly be sold in
hulk front honey to cereals,- mixed fruits,
potato'chips etc., nuts of all kinds, peanut
butter, jams, jello powders, spices, iced tea,
candies, flour, sugar, etc, ete. They also have
packaged foods as well as baked goods,
meats. everything in groceries. Shopping
bags are provided free of charge and you bag
your purchases. Buying bulk food here
certainly -lues, and should anywhere mean
savings on a food budget. Shopping in such a
place for this small town gal was a hectic
affair. To add to the problem everything is in
metric. Even the smart cltly boys were
confused. How many tomatoes in a kg? How
many kitopascals in my tires?

Monday. August 9, was the 37th anniver-
sary of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki,
three days after the bombing of Hiroshima,
58,578 people are now confirmed to have died
in the Nagasaki explosion. May such a thing
never happen again.
********
A great human tragedy is occuring across
Canada - Youth Unemployment. The
national unemployment rate is frightening
enough at 11.8%. The rate among the young
is appauling. Among men 15 to 19 the
unemployment rate is now 28.4%. For men'
between 20 and 24 the rate is 21.5%. This
data has staggering implications.
Todays jobless youth will be tomorrow's
unmotivated.aed possibly unskilled workers,
if in fact, they find a, place in the work force.
At the. very least they will have lost the
opportunity to gain useful experience, good
work habits. a ,sense of self-worth and
economic independence.
As Employment Minister Lloyd Axworthy
said last month "We could lose a whole
.generation of young workers to despair," yet
his government has done little to improve the
problem. High interest rates increased the
costs of doing business and at the same time
prevented consumers from making pur-
chases.
The greatest impact is on the young. They
arc expected to be the workers of tomorrow -
indeed, the workers who will be called upon
to support and sustain an aging population.
Unemployment *is no longer a, regional
phenomenon. Everywhere it is the young who
stand out as.the groups hit hardest by the
state of the economy - the young who are the
real future of Canada.
********* •
Being an elderly lady, rock music, so
beloved by a younger generation, has not
been listened to by me. Something more
classical, or the popular music of yottnger
years are more to my taste. In a two week
vacation in a home where young. folks were
always present. a crash course of introduction
to rock was inevitable. There are unexpected
benefits in a hearing aid. When the ear
splitting racket was just too much it was
sneakily turned off and a good book was
enjoyed in peace and quiet.
