There is a real danger of his losing one or both of his legs. Both legs are affected by the dis- ease—called thromboangiitis—Which causes a continuous contraction of leg arteries and obstructs the blood supply to the feet, The greatest peril is that this supply may be altogether cut off, causing gangrene. It has been revealed that the King was first afflicted as far back as last October, While shooting at Sandringham he remarked on the numbness of one of his feet. Pass- ing by s stone wall he kicked his boot against it and was surprised to And that he could feel no sensation. But he delayed letting his doctors know about it, and insisted on making several tiring public appear- ances late in October. His last such appearance was when he walked for two hours, sometimes over plough- ed fields, at a Farm Engineering Show. Just before the royal birth, doctors were visiting him frequent- ly, the crowds gathered outside the Palace imagining that they were there to see the Princess. Every effort is being made to make King George take plenty of Test, but he's a stubborn patient and it's said he has even refused to give up smoking. From time to time he has visited the royal baby, and he insists on keeping up with his work, such as carefully scanning all state papers before signing them, Just how it will all come out no- body—even the physicians—can do moreihan guess. But millions, in all parts of the world, when next they sing "God Save the King," will do so with more fervor and meaning than in the past. In the meantime other members of the Royal family —including Prince Philip—are tak- Ing over the scheduled engagements of His ]Majesty. Japan It isn't many months since cer- tain United States interests—the Hearst papers especially — were boosting General Dangles Mac- Arthur as the next President of the United States. Judging by he General's most recent actions, Americans may feel themselves lucky that they escaped such a fate as MacArthur acts pretty much as such dicators as Mussolini and Hitler once did. In other words, what he says goes, As supreme coo: ander in Japan, MacArthur was the sole reviewing authority on sentences passed on 15 Japanese war criminals. He confirm- ed all of these in a memo calling his action an "utterly repugnant" duty, and urging the Japs to znark the seven hangings with a day of prayers of peace, But just what that day was to be, MacArthur wasn't saying. Report- ers were barred as witnesses to the executions, and even personal ap- peals to the general, asking that the bodies of the executed men be re- turned to their families went un- answered. Of course, those condemned to death included former Premier Tojo and several high ranking Jap military men, One cannot help won- dering whether—had the executions been those of common privates, the General would have acted in quite anch an "up -stage" manner. Some Juicer l—If you plan to 1+o14 open house this New Year's, how about a "fruit juicer" like this. • It will take a pretty big house to accomo- date it though, because the "'juicer" is r e n 11 y a 60 -ton needle valve which will help control the flow of millions of gallons of water. Not A Worm, But A Kiss—This "early bird" --a pet canary owned by Alice Simpson of Winnipeg, gets a "Good morning" kiss from the family spaniel, The dog seems unafraid, and vice versa. Dog's name, by the ‘wap, is ''Manitoba Red Queen" which is why we omitted the name of the Province after "Winnipeg." MINIM "The most outstanding thing about Canadian • foaled horses," spoke up a trainer of Hibernian ancestry, "is that they do continu- ally a -beating of one another." • • • Sometimes, when on a Monday morning we scan the National Hockey League weekend results, we cannot help thinking of that opi- nion, The boys "do continually be a -beating of one another" and no mistake, and the form reversals— sometimes overnight — would be highly shocking if they occurred on the race track. • * But, of course, in hockey nobody pays any attenion to such things. With the scramble stuff they call hockey nowadays, anything may happen—and usually does, The way the schedules are arranged—so as not to miss any of those highly lucrative Saturday and Sunday crowds—isn't what you might call conducive to formful playing. And when, recently, the Maple Leafs had to play no lees than four games In the space of five days — well, what could you expect? * * Those same Maple Leafs still seem to be—at this time of writing —to be suffering slightly Isom too much success in the past. They can't, seem to get, out of their minds the fact that they were world champions for two years in a row, and that their mere reputations should be enough to make some of these "Johnny - come lately" outfits throw up hands and say "Uncle," * This the opposing clubs just plain refuse to do — the upstarts I — with the result that many loyal Maple Leaf fans, those of the radio variety in particular, . have hcen going around since the season. opened, wearing a slightly dazed and he; wilderecl expression, • • • however they're probably doing a lotof unnecessary worrying, Taken on mathematical percentage alone, it's easier to get into the National playoffs than it is to stay out of then!; and and we have no doubt that they'll be there or thereabouts when the real shooting starts. ' they're too good a club—with too much reserve strength in back tf them to be in any real danger of elimination. Still, when playoff -time arrives, we feel that the Leafs arc in for much stronger opposition than they met last year, or the year ,)e - fore. • * * That Detroit club looks as if it would cause any of them plenty of grief, and Les Canadiens and Boston Bruins can neither of them be left out of your calculations. And as long as Roy Conacher and one or two more of the Black Hawka last there's even a possibility of the Chicago team being up there et season's end—which would doubt- less be the biggest shock Windy City folks received since Truman K.Oed what -was -his -name? • 4 * In the meantime—or so they tell us, as we do not often have a chance of hearing him in person—Foster Hewitt remains in good form and voice, And Io long as that is the case, what more can the millions of long-distance M,L, fans wish for? Bo long as Foster can keep up that pitch of excitement—so long as he can sound ss though the Leafs have a chance, even if four goals be- hind and with four seconds to go— a11 Is well with those who believe that big-time hockey is an exclusl- ively Saturday night affair. • • • There are plenty of them, too, more power to them. In fact if we wore sifted what individual had es - ercised the greatest influence in Canadian hockey during the past couple of decades, it wouldn't be a star player such as Syl Apps we'd name; it wouldn't be an owner such as Conny Smythe; it wouldn't be a coach such as Dick Irwin or Ja:k Adams. It would be Foster Hewitt— the voice of hockey—whose word - pictures of the game may lean slightly to the sensational, but who has built up for the Leafs a follow- ing that is probably unique In all the world of sport, with the exception of the Notre Dame Football Team. • * Doing that anywhere would be a real achievement, but doing it for a team representing what is probably the most -disliked city in Canada— Hogtown!—well, it's no wonder our vote wouldgo for Foster 1-1, as the outstanding hockey figure of the year—any year! 'We never heard him broadcast a chess game; but we'd bet he could make it sound as though the ringsiders were hanging on the ropes with their elbows.

Protected By Law Moose can be indifferent to hu- mans these days because they have been protected by law in New Brunswick ever since 1937, and no one seems to know it better than the animals :henlselves do. At that time, the loss of life caused by hunter's rifles and the tick had seri- ously thinned out the moose popu- lation. The surviving animals were retreating away from timberlands where extensive lumbering opera- tions had destroyed touch of the natural cover. Food was harder for them to get, because of the ravages of tree diseases and tree insect plagues, and the decrease in the number of beavers meant fewer dammed -up streams and lily ponds for the moose to browse in. Pre- dictions were heard on all sides that, like caribou, which were seen in herds of 150 to 200 in New Bruns- wick during the last century, moose would soon be extinct as far as that province was concerned. So moose -hunting was stopped. Since then, year by year, the huge creatures have been making a slow but steady comeback. About three years ago a census taken by game wardens during the Winter, when moose arc concentrated in "yards," estimated there were about 7,720 in New Brunswick. This scounds like R lot, perhaps—but actually it is leas than half the number of deer shot each Fall in the province. Last year the annual report of the De- partment of Lands and Mines com- mented with satisfaction that the moose population was continuing to Increase, especially in the northern and central areas.

The lives of millions of people all over the world have been Influ- enced by the life and work of a Northumberland pit -boy, George Stephenson, the centenary of whose death was celebrated this year. Stephenson's first job was under- ground, and he would not read till he was eighteen, but before his death at Chettertield, when he was rich and successful, lie had ensured great and lasting fame by his in- vention of his stealll locomotive, the Rocket, forefather of the great locomotives of today. 1-1is first moots' was earned by minding his neighbour's cows for the princely sum of twopence a day, but in his *pare time he made clay engines and used hemlock for the stearal pipes. '!'hen he went down the pit and his alining days convinced hint of the need for better machinery un- derground, 'this set him thinking about engines and how to build and improve them. Stephenson was Sir Humphrey Davy's rival in the search to design and patent a :safety lanip for mines working in'danger- ous pits. There is a statue of Steph- enson in Newcastle and na second memorial, if he needs one, is to be found on Tyneside, where the min- ers to this day are Geordies, because their forefathers used the lamp that Geordie Stephenson designed for them, The little cottage at Whiten where he was born :8 to be bought for the public and may possibly be- come a Stephenson museum. Stephenson's was a wonderful ex- ample of the Success story. No tri- umphs can have been better deserv- ed than those of the "father or railways" and they were won by hard work and perseverance allied to genius. But no one ever carried himself more modesty in the face of world -tribe fame.

Where and what his dwelling?" "Sire, he lives a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence, By Saint Agnes fountain" "Bring me flesh and bring me wine, bring me pine -logs hither; Thou and I will see him dine, when we bear them thither.

"Sire, the night is darker now and the wind blows stronger, Fails my heart, I know not how I can go on longer" Mark my footsteps my good page, tread thou in them boldly Thou shalt feel the winter's rage freeze thy blood less coldly!' In his master's steps he trod where the snow lay dinted Heat was in the very sod which the saint had printed.

She to picked up, the lone survivor, by a young lawyer, Art Carey, who lives with his another near by, She gives them the name Honey Roe, but that afternoon when Ale and Art get the newspaper her real name Is listed among the victims. CHAPTER VI. (Continued from last week) "I'II sure be glad to get back, too," he added. "Loafing is fine for a time but then you' get fed up with it." He took out his pipe and filled it," "I've had my say. Now, let's hear about you," he suggested and lit his pipe. Honey's brow clouded. "There isn't notch to tell," she faltered. "I ant an orphan since my grand• mother died several years ago. I live by myself and do as f please and have a very good time, Even walking with Art, and lis- tening to his soft, interesting voice could not erase Dan from her mind. She kept remembering that he thought of her as a thief and would have her arrested %vhen he found she was still alive. His love would not interfere with w hat he deemed justice, ":\ penny for your thoughts. They must be interesting to take you so far away," said her companion, re- calling her to the present. "I'ln sorry," she apologized. "They aren't for sale." "Ah, a man then, When a girl is secretive abbout what she is think- ing, it's always a roan." "I won't argue the point," she laughed, "because lawyers have a way of winning their points," "We sure try hard." Honey rode into the village with Art for the trail in the late after- noon. It seethed she had known hint always and not just since early morning. While he assorted and opened his letters, he handed her the paper to read. The headlines, of course, were all about the crash, There among the list of victims was her name, Honey Monroe of Los Angeles. She looked up to see Art Carey reading the same list over her shoulder. Surprise crossed his face and he lifted his eyes and [net hers square- ly. There was a hint of inquiry in the depths of his but he said noth- ing. Honey lowered her gaze quick- ly and continued to read the other captions on the front page while a flush of guilt burned her cheeks. .\ moment later, she caught her breath and a sob rose to her throat au her eyes fell or an item near the bottom of the page. CHAPTER VII With hands that shook uncon- trollably, Honey folded the evening paper carefully, trying to pretend that all was well when her whole world was about to crumble, and handed it back to Art. That last article she had read was about Dan- iel Brewster. He was in the hos- pital, the paper said, hovering be- tween life and death. His assailant was unknown and there seemed to be a cloak of mystery surrounding the affair, The police, it said wet e inclined to believe that a woman was involved, since the bedroom door was locked from the inside and escape had been made by sheets over the balcony, and the knots were not the kind usually made by men. The smile she tried to give Art was a mere shadow and her lips trefnbled, but she held back the grief that [wanted to come out, \'hen she could speak without giv- ing herself away, she said lightly: "Newspapers do get things and 1•11 - CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS 6.

"Do they:" he asked stiffly, and she knew instantly that he was wondering why she had lied about her name. "I wonder?" Her heart cried out in agony to go to Dan, but common sense told her to stay under cover until he was well enough to talk to her. That was her only chance of security. As for Joe, she reasoned, he would see her name among the crash victims and would cease to look for her. She was so deep in her own thoughts that she jumped when Art spoke to her, "You wouldn't care to explain some things, Honey?" "I'd like to, yes -but 1 can't," she told hint earnestly, feeling ter- rible that he had caught her in a falsehood when he and his mother had taken her in so gladly and without asking questions. "Please believe toe, Art," she implored. a * "And your name really is Honey Monroe?" he kept on with determi- nation seeking the truth anyway. "Yes." "Ma thinks you are on the level," he reminded her unreleutlessly, pipe between his teeth, She flinched and lowered her head in shame. Tears stung at the back of her eyes hotly. "I know," she whispered. "I am awfully sorry." "You are afraid of something,' he continued as if reasoning things out for Iter. "I have seen it in your,,, eyes all day. And just now some- thing in the paper made you catch your breath for a moment and it tore at your heart." "Does nothing escape you she asked him softly. He did not answer her question, just ignored her interruption. "You want to hide for some reason. All right." There was first decision in his voice, He picked up the paper and threw it out of the car, "We lost the paper when Ma asks for it. The wind got it." "Thank you," site said chokingly, and the tears spilled over the lashes this time and she did not try to stop them for a moment, He put a hand over hers gently, comfortingly. "You will tell ole some time all about it, Honey, and until then, it is all right. You need a friend and I ant it. Now we will forget troubles for a while." He lifted his voice to a more cheerful note. "Would you like to go fishing tomorrow:" "Olt, Art!" she said forcing a ghost of a smite. "I'd love to go fishing, And i could kiss you for being so nice." * , He laughed and there iva- a bit of amusement in it. "You may have to do it sooned than you expect," and he pointed up to the cottage as he pulled the car to a stop before the garage. "There stands the curious neighbor. 1 don't know what story Ma has told Mrs. Riba, but we'll have to stand by it," Honey stepped out of the car and unconsciously dropped her hand in the dress pocket and felt the velvet box. Its presence had been for- gotten momentarily, and feeling it now was a distinct shock and it brought her heart right into her throat. Her mission had not been accomplished and she was reminded once again to be cautious. "Wait." She put a detaining hand on Art's arm as he started to move toward the house. "How far are we from San Francisco?"' "About 80 miles or more, I guess. Why's" (Continued next week.) 16. Stumble /1. Staying power 10, Uncle (Scot.) 31. Unroturnable =L Encore tennis serve 12.

E llsiriSCHOOL LESSON By Rev. R. Barclay Warren GOOD NEWS IN THE BIBLE Luke 2:1-14 Golden Text; Fear not; for, be- hold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. -Luke 2:10. It is a very old story; but it is still news, It is old news, but it is gond news. For one day at least it takes the headlines from the latest murder, Its solemn cheer seems to permeate the atmosphere of factory and home. It is solemn because sacred. The child horn in Bethle- bent's manger was Immanuel, God with us. The Divine One took flesh and was grade in the likeness of men. It is cheer because it is good tidings to all men; to Jew and Gen- tile, rich and poor, high and low. He brought salvation for all. This was the child for which forty centuries had waited. When ratan fell, the promise was given that the seed of the woman should bruise the serpent's heath The sacrifices pointed to the Lamb of God who would take away the sin of the world. The prophets foresaw I1itn, 'Chet' joined in telling the place and time of His birth, His lineage, the manner of His Ministry, They de- picted in amazing detail 1-Iis suffer- ing, death and resurrection. Now, after nineteen centudies, we look back to this event as the greatest of all time, We set our calendar by it. Let us enjoy to the full the spirit of Christmas. As in war opposing armies have made a truce for Christ - nus 1)ay, so let its relax front the war of nerves, Let us praise God as the choir of angels over the hill- side and the wondering shepherds. Let us bring our homage as the wise men from the East. The south warmth of the Christmas Spirit can help to dispel the cold war. Sin divivdes us, but Christ unites us. 1 -Ie removes the divisive factor, sin, from all those who will let Him, 0 that all the peoples of the world would hear anew the song and let it reecho in their souls, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men," * She Said It! "\Vhy, Jane," protested the mist- ress, "that cake is as black as a cinder. Did you cook it according to my instructions?" "Well, no, mutt," replied, the cul- prit.

Our wishful thinking concerned taxes, Round about this time we generally look for our tax' bill to arrive. Naturally we had keen thinking about it and allowing,for it on our expense sheet. And since every- thing else is up we thought the tax- es certainly would be. Oh brotherl ao•at,,osioal up I In our own minds we allowed them a boost of around When the bill carte in, to our dismay they were $50 over and above what we paid last year. We haven't recovered yetl However, we sort of managed to dissect it, as it were, and we find that over one-third of the total Is for education, Of course, we want to see all children given an opport- unity to get a good education. But what is a good education? Isn't education supposed to be a means of training a child to adjust himself to life along with what knowledge he can absorb from the usual school curriculum? But is it good training when children are raised on a spoon- fed systems of education? Is it kind to children to relieve then of any trouble or hardship in regard to getting to school? Adversity de- velops character, then what chance hare present-day children to develop eharacter—or muscle, or physical endurance? How can they when a bus comes along, picks them up and drops them at their school door? Do you know what? We are glad we haven't got any school age chil- dren now because we would hate to have them grow up robbed of their independence by having transporta- tion provided for them day after day. "They don't need to ride in the bus," did you say? Olt come now, you know children . , , not one of them likes to be different from the rest. If one rides the rest must ride too. Our children walked one and a half miles to school in every kind of weather and 1 don't think they were ever any the worse for It. Oh well, let's talk about some- thing else—sty collar is getting a little warns. • • • Maybe the Royal \Vinter Fair 'night be a safer topic. The three of us went down on the last Tuesday to the night performance, Last year we looked around at all the live- stock, This year we didn't go near them at all, It seems impossible to do everything in a few hours, We did enjoy the Musical Ride and the horse jumping, also the showing of the magnificent horses. There was oi1e part of the programme I haven't seen mentioned in the papers , . . after the heavy six -horse teams had been in the ring the announcer said —"One team of horses was not ready when the others came in but they insist on corning in now—so here they arel" And with lots of fan -fare in came a miniature dray drawn by six Shetland ponies which the announcer called "The Mighty Mites". My, how they raced around the ring — and we noticed the dray was fitted with a brake out one back wheel — and I ant sure the driver needed it. Of course we saw. the Flower Show --and I never saw one I liked better. There was a beautiful ex- hibit of roses put on by several nur- series co-operating to make one big showing instead of individual exhibits. It seemed almost im- possible such perfect roses eottld be real—and not the least bit wilted.

If your childiten are like most youngsters, there's probably nothing they enjoy more than gathering in the kltch'en to make candy. This Is especially SO at this season, when there's a spirit of jollity in the air. Here are some recipes they might try—easy to make but really grand 10 eat, 1 can assure you. !:Toney Crisp 1 cup shelled walnut meats 2 cups honey Break or chop the nuts into small pieces and spread then in a med- ium-sized, well-oiled dripping pan. Put the honey into a saucepan, place over gentle heat and let it boil for five minutes after It reaches the boiling point, stirring occasionally. Pour over the nuts, set aside to harden, then crack into pieces for nerving. Vanilla Caramels 1 cup sugar IA cup corn syrup t light ) 134 cups cream small pinch of salt Put sugar, corn syrup and y; cup of cream into saucepan, Stir until sugar dissolves, then boil to soft- ball stage, Add another half -cup of c..aut and boil again to soft -ball stage, than add remaining creast and boil to first -ball stage. 1)o not beat, as candy may. become gran- ular. Pour into oiled pan, 8"x8"x2", to become cool, then cut into shall squares and wrap in waxed paper, Popcorn halls are always popu- lar, especially at Christmas, lfere is an old recipe, using molasses: Molasses Popcorn Balls 13 cup light molasses 3/4 cup of sugar N cup of water 34 teaspoonful of vinegar ''A teaspoonful of salt 1% tablespoonfuls of butter 6 cups of popped corn Combine molasses, sugar, wattu, vinegar and salt. Cook slowly, without stirring, to the point where a entail quantity, dropped into cold water, separates into heavy threads. liennove from heat, add butter, stirring only enough to mix well. Pour mixture over popped corn, stirring constantly. Shape lightly and quickly into balls. Peanut Butter Marbles 34 cup peanut butter 134 cups shredded cocoanut or crumbled cornflakes 1 teaspoon vanilla Mix ingredients thoroughly and mold into stnall balls, Chill until first and roll in powdered sugar. (Add more peanut butter if mixture seems too stiff.)

Is it the equalization of rewards regardless of the contribu- tion that anyone stakes, or fails to stake to the social product? To many of tis a system under which the talented and skilled and indust- rious receive no more than the in- competent and shiftless and lazy, and which equalize rewards ir- respective of effort, would be not only unjust but, what is worse, un- productive. Most of us, if we thought that were the only alter- native, would prefer an enormously productive if not ideally just sys- tem to c,ne which provided a per- fectly "just" distribution of scarcity and poverty. Fortunately, a free capitalism not only provides both more liberty and .t elfarc than any other system, but more econonic justice. Under it most of us, in spite of exceptions, :ct approximately the economic value that we ourselves contribute to the total social product. That is I;ow the system provides incentives. Keep improving it, certainly; but - don't "reject" it. --henry Hazlitt. Poor System 'Elie late Sam Harris once bought a play because he heard that excel- lent actor, Arnold Daly, reading it aloud to a group and found himself profoundly moved by it, It turned out to be one of the most dismal flops of his career. "This has been a great lesson to me," he said, "That's what I get for letting a $2,- 000 -a -week actor read a drama to the and getting a $100 -a -week actor to play it." With the Movie and Radio Folks By Grace A few wecks.ago I wrote some- thing of what I had heard and read regarding the new Laurence Oliv- ier "hamlet" film. Now, having seen it, I want to say that it's a really tremendous thing—which probably sounds like a raindrop sliding down a window -pane at Ni- agara, and saying that the Falls is a pretty considerable body of water too. • • • Anyway, when you get a chance, you owe it to yourself to try and see this version of Mr, Shakespeare's nighty opus, as doing so is the sort of experience which doesn't often come to one. Seeing Olivier as a blond Hamlet may be some- thing of a shock at first, as I've al- ways thought of the "gloomy Dane" as on the brunet side, but you soon get over it. • • • However, there's no suiting everyone. I've spoken sometimes about a certain Character—to whom I'm slightly related by marriage— and on the way out of the theatre, when I was doing a slight 'rave about Olivier's perfortnance, he condescendingly remarks, "Shucks, you should have just seen Forbes Robertson." But that's how it goes! Whenever I say that hockey players such as Tedder Kennedy or Roy Conacher are pretty smart, he always looks scornful and starts raving about Howie Morena, Dutch Nighbor and the like, I suppose when Mother Eve used to remark how grand the Garden of Eden was looking, Adapt would take her down by telling her how much lovelier it was be- fore she carte along. • • • But I managed to get some of my own back. Of course every man, deep down inside him, thinks that HE—if he only had a' chance— woul., hake the perfect "Hamlet". So when we got hotne from the show I could hear the Character pacing up and down in another room, muttering to himself, "Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother" over and over again. So I just h ilered out "That should be a re- minder for you to take your winter overcoat to the cleaners tomorrow— it's simply filthy." Hamlet's final speech fitted what followed perfect- ly. It is, as you probably remem- ber, "The rest is silence." • • • So be sure and see the Olivier "Hamlet", It's honestly worth while—even though I tnust confess that, for steady fare, I'd prefer Red Skelton or Clark Gable. Whoever it was that first tagged The Prince of Denmark as "gloomy" was cer- tainly quite a word -painter. You could clock all the laughs in the show with an hour -glass. • • • A week or so ago the papers were making quite a fuss over the "dis- appearance" of Bobby Breen, who a lot of you will remember as a "child singing star" twenty years or so ago. He and the pilot of his consin, suddenly vanished' and it plane, off on a hunting trip in Wis- was feared that they had crashed, • •. * Now it looks very much as though it was all a publicity stunt. Breen was discovered comfortably stowed away in a hotel, and the plane found undamaged not far away. "The whole thing smells" said the Captain of the State Patrol which had sent parties searching for- the orthe missing pair in sub -freezing weather. I aometitues'used to think —When little Bobby was starring— that a good spanking wouldn't do him any harm, Now, maybe he'll WhenYour SACK Begins to Ache REACH FOR P BECAUSE— Backache is often due to `4`zYF� an upset kidney condi- tion; and for over hell a century Dodd's Kidney Pills hare helped bring relief from hacksche by treating the kidneys.

"If it was for publicltY, it's going to take a whole lot of ex- plaining" says one angry official. • • • Not long ago one of the big radio networks paid "Amos 'n' Andy" something like two and a half million dollars for the full lifetime rights to their show—and similar deals are pending with Edgar Ber- gen and Jack Benny, the latter re- ported to be getting three million for his corporation stock. • • • The reason for such deals is generally explained as the stars' trying to escape the very heavy "upper Bracket" income taxation. By forming themselves into corp- orations, they get off much more lightly than when working for straight salaries. But there might possibly be something else behind it all—the threat of television. • • • Here in Canada we have little Idea about the way television 1. going ahead south of the border; movie people are beginning to rea- ase that the "honeymoon is over" so far as those huge salaries are concerned. Within a year there will be plenty of stars, both on the air and In filmland, working for only a fraction of what they receive now—so maybe Messrs. Bergen, Benny et al are just "getting out while the getting is good." • • • And although it's pretty late to be telling any gags about the U. S. election, here's one you might like. Happening to say to the aforemen- tioned Character that I wondered how Dewey was feeling, he told of a man who ran for Reeve in an On- tario small town many years ago. Maybe McCarthy wasn't the name, but we'll call hint that. • • • McCarthy made an intensive per- sonal canvass, and on the eve of polling day was certain of winning. It turned out that he was very badly beaten—swamped, in fact. When the results ' were known, somebody asked the defeated can- didate how he felt. "There are more liars in Teeswater," said McCarthy sourly, "than there are in hell." So probably Mr, Dewey -'s feelings are greatly similar to that. So long for nowt Economic Regimentation Threat To All Canadians - B of M Head FLEXIBLE INTEREST, MORE EQUITY CAPITAL ADVOCATED BY B, C. GARDNER AS STABILIZING FORCES General Manager, Gordon R. Ball, Reports Record Deposits — Loans Levelling Off Montreal, Dec. 6.--B. C. Gardner, president oi the Bank of Montreal, told shareholders at the 131st annual meeting that doctrinaire socialism was attacking the moral and economic foundations of the nation. Nd' Canadian, he stressed, can hope "that it will be possible to establish in this country some form of selective economic dictatorship that will apply to others but leave him unscathed, The experience of other countries makes it perfectly clear that once regimentation is established, no interest or class in •the community can escape its toils." Such an attack, Mr. Gardner as- serted, was a challenge to all Cana- dians, but it placed a particular re- sponsibility on business men, "I hold no brief," he said, "for any con- cern that in this day and age oper- ates without regard to the public interest." Good business practice was the first essential, and, to achieve more effective public rela- tions, business had to tell its story more completely and in terms more readily understood by the man in the street. Weapons Against Inflation Chief corrective • to the present "wide disparity between the supply of stoney and the things that money buys," Mr. Gardner stated, was in- creased productivity, which in turn depended ultimately upon more rap- id technical advance. There had been a boom in capital expenditure on new plant and equipment in Can- ada during the past two years, an encouraging development, but un- fortunately this expansion had not been matched by an offsetting in- crease in saving. The result was competing demand for capital and consumer goods and a strong impet- us to the upward spiral of prices and costs. After expressing his approval of the Government's policy of oper- ating at a substantial fiscal surplus, Mr. Gardner questioned whether sufficient attention was being paid to the control of expenditure. Gov- erning bodies Wright well be expect- ed "to give a lead in the elimination from the public budget of all but absolutely necessary outlays." This point, the speaker continued, took on added significance in that existing levels of taxation had a direct and adverse effect on the sav- ing capacity of the public, particu- larly that portion of the commun- ity which might be regarded as a substantial 'source of venture capital. 'The president referred to the pos- sibility of using a flexible rate of interest both to stimulate saving and to retard the rate oi capital outlay. The policy of easy money had been developed in a period of deflation and unemployment, and he felt that there would be a definite ad -vantage in introducing a further element of flexibility into the interest rate structure. Further, he said, it nas highly desirable that an increased propor- tion of corporate financing should be done in equity form than through the issue of additional debt. General Manager's Address Gordon R. Ball, general manager. reported that the bank's assets stood at $1,991,000,000, total deposits at $1,877,000,000, both at the highest level in the B of M's history. The volume of banking transactions had continued to expand throughout the year; special services of the war and early post-war years had been re- placed by the larger volume of more normal banking business. The staff of the Bank of Montreal now numbered 9,300. Referring to journeys he had made across the continent, in the course of which he visited 135 branches in Canada as well as the bank's otlices in the United States, Mr. Ball said, "This was a moat inspiring experience ... I cannot speak too highly of the fine spirit of teamwork, enthusiasm and devotion of which 1 found evi- dence on all sides." The rapid increase of personnel in recent years had brought special problems of staff training. Schools for entrants were now operating in Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg and Vancouver, and senior staff courses had been instituted at head office, while intermediate courses were in contemplation for the cooling year, Mr. Ball ,toted that the upward trend of commercial loans, which had reached a peak in November, 1947. was now levelling off, and he regarded this as a "constructive de- velopment". In view of rising prices and costs many customers were adopting a more cautious attitude in their commitments. Turning to other aspectsof the batik's loan policy, he showed that advances to the grain trade, as' well as loans to farmers and primary producers, had increased over the past year. The hank found great satisfaction in the fact that loans under the Farm Improvement Loans .\ct had risen almost 50 per cent. 99 of Every 100 B of M Loans Approved Locally In its general lending policy the 13 of 1d had been particularly anxi- ous to meet the requirements of small busiiness concern; and individ- ual borrowers. "Despite this," said Mr, Ball, "it has been alleged from time to time that, because of a concentration of financial resources in the larger centres, Canadian business concerns, and small ones in particular, arc at. a disadvantage in dealing with branch banks in the smaller centres, 4jte inference being that only relat- ively •few have access to credit. "With this view 1 emphatically disagree. The full facilities of the entire bank are placed at the cus- tomer's disposal at all of our branch- es and the number of borrowing accounts- on our books is to tis a clear indication that our customers' requirements arc being properly and Promptly met. "1 may say that a: at September 30th last, of the total number of loans on the hooks of this hank, over 99 per cent were made directly by and at the discretion of our branch managers and local superintend- ents."
