Xake for •in- : stance .the Canadian dollar, • she said. To stippart the dollar means borr0 vast sums of money, abroad on ;which we pay interest. This in turn means thaeyouandl, huainiessmen and wonien, pay higher interest rate. • Layoffs in the auto and farm machinery industries lead to cries for quick action, • she said. When farmers or email businessmen ). go babkrupt they are expected to fend for themselves. And by the way,11 per cent of the agricultural machipery industry and 96 per cent of t the automobile and parts industries are foreign controlled, she added. There also is a cry for help to control escalating, ab- sentee foreign oyvnership of farm land, Mrs. Fortune said. We must replace im- ports, with domestically produced goods. With government grants •and loans, new food processing plants could be built and others modernized. In conclusion, she said we must think things through. What looks good in the short term may be the worst possible thing to do in the long run. She urged everyone to take' an interest in what Canadian negotiators do in the area of trade and tariffs.

Pastor Chek stated that Christians must become involved in problems of fellow human beings and the church needs to contact Jap- anese authorities about the rights of the Koreans in Japan. Neighborly Ned (Hazel Hardie) felt that we all need to be •missionaries right where we are and cited the example of her 'paraplegic neighbor who, having had three Children to raise, found great difficulty. She felt her "mission" was in her own neighborhood. Saving Grace (Jean MacDonald) explained the most important part of the mission is bringing people to the saving knowledge of the Lord. Taking care of physical needs was im- portant but most important was the state of their spiritual life. Ms. Minister ( Isobel Arbuckle) declared that you cannot separate the caring for people's physical needs from their spiritual needs. When Christians act out in society what they believe, the community cannot help but see the church in a new way and realize the church does have a message. This is witnessing in another way.
