"Dear Anne Hirst: We have
three children, and my husband
11s good to us in every way—ex-
cept concerning in-law matters
. , , Briefly, he doesn't care to
visit my par-
ents, and when
they see us for
a few hours I
hold my breath,
hoping he will
not be sulky.
He never
shows anw ap-
preciation o f
their gifts or
their kindness to us.
"I treat his people as I do my
own. I visit them with hint and
the children, and everyone is
congenial. I've cared for his
mother when she was ill, and
I help her when she needs it
It is all so unfair!_ I try to
overlook his attitude, but the
time comes when I get so choked
up I,explode,
"CAN'T HELP IT"
"When I approach my husband
about it, he says we're two dif-
ferent types, and if he doesn't
like someone he can't help show-
ing it. I contend that for sake
of harmony he could be pleasant
with them, Both sets of parents
are nice, and neither interferes.
"This problem is driving my
husband and me further apart
all the time, It's been going on
for years, and keeps getting mare
serious .. , I don't want the chil-
dren harmed by such contentio»
.. • Is there any way I can han-
dle the matter so that harmony
will prevail? . , , Thank you, and
God bless you in your helpful
work.
• 1 am afraid that your bus-
* band has stated his case and
* will brook no attempt on your
• part to change the facts as he
* sees them, For too many years
• he has had his way.
• His defense, though, is irra-
-• tional. In his business, and in
' other contacts, he undoubted-
' ly must deal with people whom
• he does not like—but would
• he dare to show it? Ile em-
• ploys the, courtesy and tact es-
' sentlal to his successful ends.
• In 'his attitude toward your
• parents he should be fair, if.
• only to please you,
• Perhaps he is just too stub-
• born to admit haw right you
* are, too autocratic to yield to
# your pleas. How stupid (and 1
• use the word deliberately) to
• allow this one defect in his
o character to destroy the har-
• mony of your marriage! You
* are gradually losing your re-
* spect for him and your confi-
o dence in his judgment. l am
• sorry for you both.
• Perhaps I have missed a cue.
o But it seems to me that you
can only take the children to
• visit your parents more often,

s fcction and thoughtfulness. Ac-
• cept his attitude as a lack in

" and at least end these unhappy

in their shallow pride resist any

Queen Overworked?
Are• the British overworking
their sovereign? As the old year
came to a close this not new
question bounced back and forth
between those who feel it would
be more "Democratic" to let the
Queen live a simpler life, and
those who feel that plenty of
hard work is good for a young
woman. Advocates of the simple
life for Buckingham Palace at-
tack "court circles" for keeping
the Queen's diary too full. But •
their opponents are sure the
Queen wants it that way. ,
Meanwhile Queen Elizabeth 11
is showing herself as a very up
to dale young monarch, an ex-
ponent of simplicity, with a deep
sense of democracy. lier Christ-
mas message which was broad-
cast throughout the Common-
wealth reflected these qualities
movingly.
In it she asked her peoples to
pray for her — that she might
have strength .and wisdom to
perform the tasks to which she
will dedicate herself at the coro-
nation next June. The request re-
minded many of her hearers that
in 1P47, on reaching the age of
21, she pledged herself as Prin-
cess Elizabeth to serve them but
added That she could not carry
the burden alone but %voul(l need
the help of. all her people.
What she seems to puny Bri-
tons lo be saying is that n na-
tion's , strength comes not pri-
marily from its rulers or leaders
but from the rhararler of all, its
people.
In recent weeks London movie
audiences have been watching a
film dealing with the exploits of
the first Elizabeth, and hearing
her words which were tuned to
another turbulent age, words in
which she said she might have
the frail "body of a, woman hut
she had the heart of a King of
England, and would lead her
armies to victory. The style of
this speech nfTers a roaring con-
trast to that of the message of
Elizabeth 1I, though with, dis-
credit to neither sovereign; their/
tasks differ so.

Ice On The River
The ice is on the river, the
slow -flowing, un -salt water. It
began with shards rind sheets of
ice drifting down in the slow
current, forming fragile bridges
where it massed. Another night
of cold and there was slush be-
tween the shards and along the
bank; another day of cold and
it was a sheet, as crystal sheet
over the river which danced with
glitter when the sun struck it
and gleamed with frost crystals
in the moonlight. The flow was
still there; break the ice at the
fragile edges and the slow mavc-
ment of the dark current could
be seen, But it was now a hid-
den flow.
1l will melt. The ice will loosen
and go out, and •come again.
Those who have lived with the
river a long time say that it
must freeze over three times, and
then winter will settle down to
stay out its time. This is the first
freeze, bank to bank. Two more
to come, two to go and one to
remain
it is. so clear, so simple, this
ice, that one forgets that ice
carved the valleys. ice was the
great knife which shaped the
hills, the ice after the fire had
died away. Ice. crystalline water,
one of the simplest solids and yet,
in tine crystal, close kin to gran-
ite. liaise its temperature five
degrees and it flows away. Raise
it twenty degrees, on a chill day,
and it steams, becomes a cloud.
A snowflake, leather -light, or a
glacier, or a river no longer open
to the sky. Ice.
'i'he slow streams flow in the
ice -shaped valleys, and winter
night closes down, and the
streams at dawn are gleaming
hlghwnys for the wind. And man
stands face to face with his
land's beginnings, its primal
force, its relentless ice. -- From

We have come to the end of
our first week without company,
Lonesome? No, we have been iar
too busy to be lonesome, Partner
doesn't get much spare time
from the barn these days and I
have been doing just what I had
promised myself I would do --
a spot of "rodding up," start-
ing off with the worst rooriz In
the house — ,my office, study or
glory hole — "call it what you
will, Olt dear, saving recipes
and quilting patterns Is bad
enough but when one's clippings
also include bits of poetry and
prose; odds and ends of infor-
mation that might come in use-
ful sometime, and stories and ar-
' ticles written by friends also
in the writing field, then indeed
one gets really swamped. I hate
to throw out anything that spe-
cially appeals to me, which
means I have a collection of
Edna Jaques homely little
stories from the Milk Producers'
Magazine; Maud Ker'r•'s edito-
rials from the Family herald
and Weekly Star; Mona Pur-
sers's from the Globe and Mail;
H. V. McArce's "Two -Bits" col-
umn, W. H. Deacon's "Fly -Leaf,"
and many interesting little bits
that I have clipped from this
paper from time to time, There
are also very interesting local
histories published each Satur-
day in two evening papers. They,
also, have to be saved. But, alas,
my clippings are not always cut
out and put away when they
should be — the whole page is
saved instead — which means
I Invariably have a pile of mis-
cellaneous clippable material
waiting to be sorted out "when
I get around to it." Eventually
I settle down to the job but by
that time the clippings are often
out of date so that I look over
this one and that one and won-
der what on earth I kept it fart
So that is tt'hat I have been
doing for the last two days --
�
and you can understand why I
started "redding up" in my own
room first. But thank goodness I
didn't need any help — other-
wise there would have been some
uncomplimentary remarks fly-
ing around — of that I am cer-
tain, You sec I rearranged my
office a few weeks ago —= brought
up a set of shelves from the cel-
lar and pushed a big cupboard
I didn't want out into the hall,
meaning to have Bob put it
somewhere elese when he was
at home. But for some unknown
reason I didn't ask him so the
cupboard stayed in the hall. To-
day I brought it back again to
where I took it from! By a little
more re -arranging I found I
could use, to good advantage,
both the cupboard and the
shelves. Now, if I had needed
help for the job .. . See what
I mean?
Then there was my trailing
ivy •— that had to be changed
to a new position. It was over
the register — fine in summer,
but too hot in winter. So I put
the ivy where I thought it would
show to good advantage, and
tacked_ up all the trailers. Later
in the day I decided it wasn't
in the right place at all — so
I changed it all over again.
So you're laughing, are you?
Well, now, how can one be sure
that one will like anything in
any particular place until one
finds out by putting it there?
That's a logical question, isn't
it? Anyway, I am quite sure
.that I now have everything
exactly the way I want it. I
always know when 1 nm finally
satisfied.
Well, before leaving the sub-
ject of clippings — I wonder
what you • people, have found to,
be the best way of caring for
them — you see I ata quite sure
you have clippings too, I find
that every clipping addict has
a method of her own — good,
bad or indifferent. I used to keep
any clippings In one section of
a filing cabinet in alphabetical
order. But I soon found that
that method didn't work too well
because I never could remember
how 1 had things listed, For in-
stance I might want to look up
something on dogs, Then I would'
wonder . , . now, will that be
under "dogs" or will it be —
"Animals •— domestic"? Later
I found another writer, Lyn H.,

• One of the fine sporting gestures of 1952
was, in our humble opinion, made by an
Olympic girl champion, This is an era in
which the great ice shows offer amounts al-
most fabulous to international title winners,
and there is nothing wrong nor unethical in
these possessors of unique natural talents sell-
ing their wares to the highest bidders. Sonja Henie, Barbara Ann
Scott, Jacqueline de Bief, the great Dick Bntton are notable
figures who have led the vast parade of ice stars into the monied
ranks.
'!b all this, there's one notable exception, Because she believed
her future lay in other, far less glafnorous roles than the great ice
shows provide, Britain's Jeannette Altwegg, the queen of the last
Olympic winter games, hung up her skates, refused a huge offer,
choosing to devote her life to charitable work 'that involved menial
and tiresome duties,
After she had stolen the head -lines at the Oslo show, .Jis4
Altwegg announced she was through with contpetitiv'e skating, Few
believed that she was serious, It was felt that when the "big offer"
came along, Britain's -girl champion would succumb, as had most
of the stars of her time,
The "big offer" came an offer of 2000 pounds, or around $6,000,
per week from the Music Corporation of America. But still this
21 -year old daughter of a British naturalized Swiss declined, She
replied simply that she was not interested, no matter how high
the offer. "I'm just not cut out for the bustle and whirl of show-
manship and it would make me unhappy to.do so" she said in
effect,
Today Jeannette is doing something that is utaking her very
happy. She is in Switzerland at the international "I'estalozzi"
village at Trogen. There she is helping in the British dwelling
to look after orphaned children who come from a dozen different
nationalities, Her self-imposed tasks for payment, Jess in a year
than she was offered per day by the show magnates, include the
hundred and one daily domestic chores involved in looking after
children who, if it wasn't for such organizations as this, and such
self+pacrificing persons as Jeannette Altwegg, would be thrown
helpless upon the world,
This isn't intended to criticize, by inference, those who have
followed the dictates of a practical era, and deckled to capitalize
on the skill they developed through long and arduous hours of
practise. They're entitled to their rewards, just as Jeanette Alt-
wegg is 'entitled to the rich satisfaction she undoubtedly gains
in her more humble sphere of life.

"The higher you climb the
;harder you fall," and "A hero
today and a bum tomorrow" are
1 two axioms almost as old as
aport; and their truth was never
more pointedly proven than in
the case of M. Georges Carpen-
tier, one of the ring's most fab-
alous figures" back about 30
Fears+ ago.
• • •
A French flying -hero of World
War I, Georges — handsome,
iioappily-dressed and with per-
sonality a -plenty was the idol of
.his countrymen who cheered him
111 the skies as he battled his way
10 the world's light -heavyweight
11tIe, ' Even at Boyle's 30 acres,
,just outside Jersey City, prob-
ably nine -tenths of the spectat-
4 ra were pulling for the French-
man to pull a miracle and flat-
iem Jack Dempsey. Of course
*et was just a bit too much even
i►or M. Carpentier. He lasted
Assn than 4 rounds against the
lldtanassa Mauler, but even that
defeat did his popularity little if
may harm especially along the
boulevards of that dear Paris,
(By the way that Dempsey -Car-
pentier was the first fight to have
a round -by -round broadcast and
the microphone -maestro was J,
.Andrew White. Remember him? -
Well, neither did we!)
• e *
But it didn't take long for
*Gorgeous Georges" to hit the
popularity 'skids. Apparently --
Ake a lot of other athletes we
could mention — he had been
•
c
doing too much reading of his
press notices and, what is.worse,
believing what he read, So, just
to pass the time away and to pick
up a few loose francs, about a
year after his meeting with
Dempsey he took on an unknown
by the name of Battling Siki. For
what happened then, here is the
story as reported in The Police
Gagette of that day,
• • •
With dramatic suddenness, and
most unexpectedly, came the de-
feat of Carpentier by the Afric-
an black in the sixth round of
what was scheduled to be a twen-
ty round bout, staged in the Buf-
falo Stadium in Paris, France,
before a crowd estimated at
110,000.
Dizzy . and spent, with his
"Greek profile" nose smashed by
a blow frons the . negro's fists,
Carpentier came . out wobbling
for the sixth and final. round of
the encounter, and one minute
and ten seconds after the bell
sounded, was crumpled on the
canvas, taking the count from
Henry Bernstein, the referee.
By his victory Siki, scarcely
heard of outside of Paris • three
months ago, became the light -
heavyweight champion of the
world and the heavyweight
champion: of Europe, the two
titles so proudly held by Carpen-
tier and the boast of his manag-
er and mentor, Francois Des -
camps, passing to the African,

Keeping in Practice -This French soldier isn't getting ready for a
date, He has a long tour of duty ahead of him piloting his am-
phibious vehicle through rice paddies in French Indo-China, He's
lust taking advantage of a lull in the fighting to keep in practice
with the razor.,
if pity were called for, one
could well pity the once debonair
Georges as he lay, a shattered
idol, on the ring floor, with the
ebony -hued fighter who had beat-
en him down being frantically
hailed as a hero by a great
throng of Carpentier's fellow
countrymen assembled at his
pugilistic Waterloo.
• • •
Georges met the fate not un-
common to professional athletes,
of a broken idol, For some time
the ardor of French sportsmen
had been cooling towards Car-
pentier. They remembered that
he had seldom boxed in France
(where purses have been small
owing to war drainage of the
nation's finances), and seldom if
ever for charity, so that when he
faced Siki for what Georges ex-
pected to be a boxing lesson the
French ex -airman .was no longer
the pet of the populace.
„
* •
When, after the third round,
it became apparent that he was
a- beaten fighter and, withal,
seemed anxious to foul his negro
opponent in order to stave off
a knockout, the 'crowd turned
completely against its one-time
favorite and the stadium rang
with jeers and catcalls directed
at the loser. •
• • •
Carpentier interrupted his mo-
tion picture engagements to ac-
eept the challenge of Battling
Siki. He underwent thorough
training and was apparently in
good shape. Furthermore, he was
as confident (on the surface at
least) as ever when he bowed
to the throng at the Buffalo Sta-
dium. But after the. first round
•there was nothing to the en-
counter but Siki, who, after
Mopping a couple of George's
much vaunted rights to the chin,
awakened . to the fact that he
was not facing a superman as he
had supposed, but a mere human,
after all, who could not hurt him
and. whom he could, in turn, pun-
ish almost at will.
• • •
The bout was devoid of
science, In the first round Siki
presented the appearance of be-
ing overawed by his opponent.
But after he had been hit a
couple of times and didn't drop,
he took heart and sailed into Car-
pentier just as if he wasn't a
"mastermind" and that sort of
thing.
• * •
in the second round Carpen-
tier landed his famous right
against Siki's jaw, but failed to
stop him. The Frenchman look-
ed surprised when the Senegal-
ese did not fall. In the third
round Georges dropped the col-
ored man to one knee ' with a
hard right for a count of seven,
but Siki 'got up and in a furi-
ous exchange landed a smashing
blow to Carpentier's chin which
sent him down for a count of
four. * • 0
It was this blow (tabbed
"lucky" by Descamps) that real-
ly proved the definite turning
point of the bout in Siki's
favor, for Carpentier was badly
dazed by it and never fully re-
covered from its effects. In the
fourth and fifth rounds Siki bat-
tered Carpentier all over the ring
and the Frenchman resorted to
every trick in his repertoire to
avert the ignominy of a knock-
out. More than once he butted
Siki with • his head and was
warned by the referee, while the
crowd jeered the foul tactics.
* • , •
.Isis nose smashed, his face raw
and bleeding and his gait un-
steady, Carpentier laboriously
left his corner for the • sixth
round when Silti finished him.
• w •
As Georges fell, his feet fell
through 'those. of the negro, and
his manager claimed that Siki
tripped .him, The first verdict
was that Siki lost on a foul but
this was later reversed and the
African was declared the winner
by a knockout,
Siki weighed 174, and Carpen-
tier a pound less,

The Ford Times ran a cartoon
recently by Cal Dunn that made
hundreds of male readers weep
into their hot toddies. It showed
a weary .husband who has just
dug a fifty -yard path from his
private garage to the road
through a six-foot snowdrift, As
he is about to open the garage
door, with an evident air of tri-
umph, his dear little wife calls
out from the kitchen, "Oh, 1.
forgot to tell you, dear. 1 took
the car over to mother's yester-
day before the storm started."

Free Exchange Rates, Lower Tariffs,
Encouragement of Foreign Investment,
Keys to Healthier Economy, Says President
Urges dollar countries to remove excessive trade barriers and
customs formalities, "Canada serves high moral purpose and
'own self-interest by accepting her present-day responsibilities,"
Canada's dependence on the
world economy, and her respon
Ability to it because of her in-
creased importance in the world
was the main theme of the a» -
Dual address of James Muir, Pre-
ddent, at the Annual General
Meeting of Shareholders of The
Royal Bank of Canada. Self-in-
terest and high moral purpose, he
said, lead in the case of Canada
to a common goal: the rehabilita-
tion of the world economy, Reli-
ance on the free price system,
be felt, is prerequisite to the re-
moval of numerous obstacles to
healthy world trade which exists
today,
"Unfortunately the world's eco-
nomic ills are more easily ding-
nozed than cured," said Mr, Muir.
"The most spectacular symptom
iv, of course, the so-called short-
age of dollars which still persists
seven years after the end of the
Second World 'War.
"In international trade, goods
must be paid for either in the
exporter's currency or in funds
that are freely convertible into
that currency, The world chooses
to buy goods and services from
the United States and Canada
at such a gate that, even with the
multitude of restrictions imposed
by the importing countries, dol-
lar payments for imports exceed
dollar earnings from exports by
more than $5 billions per year.
THE DOLLAR SHORTAGE
'Exchange control can check
the loss of dollar reserves for a
time, but it does nothing to com-
bat, indeed it may intensify, the
underlying unbalance that causes
the dollar drain. In contrast, a
free rate moves automatically to
restore balance in the internation-
al accounts.
"I do not mean to say, nor have
I ever said, that free exchange
rates will solve the whole prob-
lem; there is no simple solution,
evertheless, it is surely unwise
to forego the advantages of a free
market merely because after its
adoption, some problems will still
remain.
"In the short run,he dollar
countries should act without de-
lay to remove excessive tariff
barriers and customs formalities
that now present unnecessary ob-
stacles to overseas imports. Can-
ada, especially, has m u ch to
gain by reducingthe preponder-
ance of U.S. goos among her im-
ports; and at the same time the
release in this way of extra dol -
Jars to overseas countries would
tend to reduce Canada's depen-
dence on the U.S. export market,
"In the long run, an invest-
ment programme will be of the
greatest importance in correcting
the fundamental economic weak-
ness that lays our allies open to
recurring dollar crises. Briefly,
investment may provide relief in
three main ways: first, soft -cur-
rency countries may concentrate
their domestic investments on in-
dustries producing dollar -earning
exports or producing goods which
otherwise -would have to be im-
ported from the dollar area; sec-
ond, dollar area countries may
concentrate their foreign invest-
ment fn the same types of in-
dustry; and third, the soft -cur-
rency countries may make direct
dollar -earning investments in the
dollar area itself:
PROBLEMS OF INVESTMENT
"The way to encourage pri-
vate investment in under -de-
veloped countries is not to create
another international • lending
agency but to secure a general
elimination or reduction of the
present restrictions in these coun-
tries on the repatriation of earn-
ings, on the capitalization of
earnings which are not or can-
not be transferred, and on the
effective control by its owners
Over equity capital when the ma-
jority interest resides outside the
tender -developed countries.
"In the last analysis, interna-
tional investment and economic
development depend upon a
change of heart in the under-
developed countries themselves.
I believe this change will be
easier if those countries adopt
the short -run monetary and ex-
change-rate policies I have al-
ready discussed, Any easing of
the dollar shortage by these
means will make it easier to
transfer interest, dividends, and
capital sums out of these coun-
tries; and the mere power to
withdraw will in turn encourage
new investment and thus create
m further improvement in the
exchange position of these coun-
tries. Nevertheless, the will must
be there if healthy long -run in-
vestment is to be encouraged; and
no plan or assistance programme

"EASY" CR[:DIT CAN BE
COSTLY TO CONSUMER
Three devices, Mr, Muir said,
had been available to correct
the hill in business which had
occurrei:l early in 1952. These
were tax reductions, price re-
ductions, and easier credit
terms. Despite some reduc-
tions in excise taxes, the effect
of the 1952-53 budget had been
to impose a heavier over-all
burden of taxation; price re-
ductions, while they had oc-
curred to some extent, played
a rFlatively small part in the
revival of trade which look
place towards the halfway
mark of 1952.
"It was the third device,"
he said, "that of easier credit
terms, which was apparently
chosen by business and gov-,
eminent as the means to re-
store a stronger current of
business activity, Consumer
credit controls were abolish-
ed on May Oth, 1952, and the
voluntary restrictions on bank
lending were removed, at the
suggestion of. the Bank of Can-
ada, on May 20, 1952, We are
experiencing the buoyant ef-
fects of these decisions. In-
deed, there is some evidence
that the declin in activity has
been over -corrected, and that
inflation has again become a
threat to the economy,
"So-called 'easy' consumer
credit can be most costly both
to the consumer . and to the
economy as a whole. The ef-
fect on sales is immediate and
gratifying to business; but re-
payment of the debt by the
public in the future may well
result in an enforced reduc-
tion in consumer spending on
durable goods to a level quite
as low and depressing as that
which followed our pre -bud-
get buying spree of 1951, if
this reduction were to occur
along with other deflationary
factors, such as heavy inven-
tories and a reduction or a
levelling off in armament ex-
penditure, our present boom
might seem, in retrospect, an
unsdund and temporary one.
Indeed, the economic pattern
today bears no little similari-
ty to that of 1928 and 1929,
Then, as in 1952, the expan-
sion of consumer instalment
credit played an important
•part in increasing sales and
maintaining retail prices at a
time when raw material prices
were on a steady decline, The
result then, as in 1952, could
only be a concealed inflation
with its attendant dangers.
"I believe that a sounder
prosperity in 1952 would have
resulted from greater use of
the two other corrective de-
vices, namely tax and price re-
ductions. These interact with
and reinforce one another in
promoting a healthy expan-
sion; in other words,the ex-
pansion they promote will not
be based on the shifting sands
of consumer credit."
or investment institution can
serve as a substitute,
BASIS FOR OPTIMISM
Mr, Muir concluded with an
appeal to Canadians to exercise
discretion . when discussing Can-
eda's prospects to their friends
in other countries, "It may be
pleasant," he said, "to have one's
nation regarded highly abroad;
but the boom psychology that
prompts even small investors in
other countries to rush into Can-
adian securities should teach us
caution, Both our good repute
and our long-term prosperity will
be far safer if we do not over-
sell Canada now. Let us then
temper our private optimism with
a little public caution, . es ecially
when we are talking to Canada's
many friends abroad,
"Canada made a valuable con-
tribution to the revival of faith
in the traditional price mechan.
ism when she freed the dollar
in September, 1950, and removed
all exchange controls a little over
a year later, In other countries
there are legitimate differences
of opinion on whether or not
the time has come to make a
similar dash for freedom, But
theme is a surprising amount of
agreement that ultimately this is
what must be done.
"Our country is young, its eco-
nomic system is strong, and its
capacity for growth will put our
resources of imagination and en-
terprise to•a severe but welcome
test, This is. what we should re-
member when we become too
greatly impressed with the dif-

'1', H, Atkinson, General Man-
ager, in reviewing the bank's 1952
report, stated that total assets of
The Royal Bank of Canada have
now reached the imposing total
fo $2,691,456,873, This, he said,
was a new htigh mark in Cana-
dian bnnking history, and is the
highest ever reported by any
Canadian bank,
Deposits likewise had reached
record totals, said Mr. Atkinson.
They now stand at $2,527,510,437,
an Increase of approximately
$176,000,000 over the previous
year, "This increase," said Mr,
Atkinson, "reflects not only sub-
' stantially higher balances in the
names of former clients but has
been accompanied by a record -
making number of new names on
our books. The number of deposit
accounts on the books of the bank
now exceeds 2,250,000, an in-
crease of well over 100,000 during
the_ year."
Mr. Atkinson reported profits
for the year had increased $],-
762,382 over the previous year,
After providing for taxes, depre-
elation and dividends, including
an additional dividend of $875,-
000 (at the rate of 25d per share)
the bank transferred $3,000,000
to Reserve Fund, which now
stands at $55,000,000.
The bank's programme of im-
provement to branches, which
has gone on steadily since the
end of the war, continued during
the year to provide the public and
staff with modern, up-to-date faci-
lities and surroundings, Some 275
benches were provided with new
or improved premises, 18 new
branches were opened, and a
further seven are in the course
of preparation.
ROYAL BANK ABROAD
Mr, -Atkinson reviewed the
history of the bank's extensive
organization abroad, pointing out
that its growth had followed ac-
tual or potential channels for
Canadian trade development. Of-
fices were established only after
a careful survey on the ground
to ascertain whether the field was
adequately banked, and if not,
whether the bank could not only
service Canada's export trade,
but could contribute something
worthwhile to the business com-
munity in the particular country
end operate on a reasonably pro-
fitable basis,
"The volume of business trans-
acted by our foreign branches re-
mains very substantial indeed,
and profitable. During the past
year, our overseas chain has again
demonstrated its worth as an im-
portant complement to our Can-
adian organization. Not only was
this so from the standpoint of
record earnings, but the contri=
bution made in the direction of
business to • the Canadian field
through contacts established
abroad was well worth while.
As has been said in our pub-
lished reports of previous
years, through our extensive
' overseas direct representation
plus our world-wide relations
with correspondent banks and
the specialized departments we
operate in Canada to aid traders,
we are proud of the services we
provide and also of the contribu-
tion we make towards facilitating
traders, the value of which can
hardly be assessed in a nation
which ranks third in world trade.
PRAISE FOR STAFF
"It is a daily occurrence in
Head Office to receive letters in-
dicating that at one point or an-
other some member of the staff
has gone out of his or her way
to deal kindly and thoughtfully
with the problems of a client,
Public opinion of a bank is by
and large the opinion held of in-
dividual branches, of the bank so
that our reputation is largely de-
pendent on the deportment and
actions of branch personnel. That
it is in good hands is amply evi-
dent,
"An expanding business inevit-
ably places increased demands on
the staff and in the past year we
are well aware that at many
points our officers have been
faced with difficulties which at
the moment may have seemed
insurmountable. In no case, how-
ever, was there the slightest evi-
dence of a breakdown in service
to the public and so, ori behalf
of the executive officers of the
bank, I say .a heartfelt "thank
you" to the stall'. In turn, on their
behalf, 1 have no hesitation in
assuring the directors and share-
holders that the demands of the
future will be met by the staff
in the efficient, warm and friend-
ly manner they have displayed
in the past."
ficultics still ahead of us. There
Is little excuse for' gloom in a
young country that even now
stands confidently on the thres-
hold of national greatness."

Lower Tariffs
To Increase Trade
In his address at the Annual
Meeting of Shareholders recent-
ly Mr, James Muir, President of
The Royal 13ank of Canada • had
some Interesting things to say
about existing obstacles to for-
eign trade, Mr, Muir said, in
part:
"1 ani no recent convert to the
view that free exchange rates'
are today prerequisite to inter-
national monetary equilibrium. I
have consistently urged this
policy since January, 1050. 1 do
not mean to say, nor have I ever
said, that free. exehnngo rates
will solve the whole problem;
there is no simple solution, Nev-
ertheless, it is surely unwise to
forego the advantages of a free
market merely because, after its
adoption, some problems will
still remain, The greatest pos-
sible reliance on the free price
system, through a flexible mon-
etary and 'exchange rate policy,
13 prerequisite to any final re-
moval of exchange controls, im-
port restrictions, and other spe-
cial obstacles to, healthy world
trade,
"In the short run, the dollar
countries should act without de-
lay to remove excessive tariff
barriers and customs formalities
that now present unnecessary
obstacles to overseas imports,
Canada, especially has much to
gain by reducing the preponder-
ance of U.S, goods among her
imports; and at the same time
the release in this way of extra
dollars to overseas countries
would tend to reduce Canada's
dependence on the U.S, export
market.
"In the long run, an invest-
ment programme will be of the
greatest importance in correcting
the fundamental economic weak-
ness that lays our allies open to
recurring dollar crises, I think
of this investment programme,
not as an excuse for creating new
and high-sounding international
institutions, but as a campaign
to reduce the absurd obstacles to
Investment which ' are nowhere
so great as in those countries
where capital is needed most,
"Canada ,made a valuable con-
tribution• to the revival of faith
in the traditional price mechan-
ism when she freed the dollar in
September, 1950, and removed all
exchange controls a little over a
year later. We should be proud
of the part Canada has played in
this return to economic sanity.
And, since Canadian economic
expansion demands an expand -
Ing world economy, we should
be grateful that, in general, the
spirit of economic freedom
seems likely more and more to
become the spirit of the age.
"0f course, so favourable an
economic environment may have
its disadvantages, It is pleasant
to have one's nation regarded so
highly abroad; but the boom
psychology that prompts even
small investors im,other countries
to rush into Canadian securities
should teach us caution. Both our
good repute and our long-term
prosperity will be far safer if we
do not oversell Canada now. Let
us then temper our private op-
timism with a little public cau-
tion, especially when we are talk-
ing to Canada's many friends
abroad."
Nylon things should never be
left standing in bluing water,
'Streaks and spots may gather in

safe, however, if used properly.
It should be very light because
nylon fibres pick up the color
