Prof. MacKlnnnNl Address In speaking on “the im-pflltlmle of locnl Democracy”. Frank MacKinnon emphasized the value of self-government in con- temporary affairs and pointed out that. self-government in the local areas is just as important as 1n large units. for. if people d0 not take an interest in the busin- ess of their owmcommunity, how can they be exllecmd 9° Pfl-Tucll-l‘ ate in the democratic achleveme ‘s of the nation as a whole? Democ- rurcy begins in the cities. towns and villages and from the“ BMW! to national importance.

For this reason he compliment- ed the local Boards of Trade for providing the means by which cit- izeiis might take an lntfiefil? 1" their own affairs and lend the benefits of their suggestions and efforts to community service. Or- glmlzatlons such as local Boards of Trade are foundations upon wlhich democracy is built.

Ho pointed out- that 80W!"- ment, business. and education were three of the most important pub- lic activities in any community and to these activities local groups and individuals can make enor- mous contributions which ivould be helpful to responsible officials.

It is an old maxim that people get thc kind of govemment they deserve, The same is true. he said. in education. for no government or institution can plan an effect- ive educational system without tho full cooperation of the citizens themselves. And the contribution 0d business activity to public wel- fare depends to a very 1H8! 6X‘ tent upon the publlch interest in its own economic affairs.

A Major Problem

One of the iriaior problems in modern society is the question of the extent of the relations be- tween business and government. 1.1-. government control or private enterprise? It has become obvious that neither government nor priv- ate enterprise can handle all the major economic problems of the nation hy itself. Each must bear its’ shin-e. Tire-re are things WlIlCh government can do better than business and there are other things which business can do much more cffcrtlvply without government in- terfcrence.

The need for cooperation and

team wnrk between government nnd business has become obvious. and the place to encourage it ls at the community level. M15 0"" of the chief agencies for such en- couragement la the local board of trade. The vnlue of cooperation between government and education has been obvious in recent years. I01‘ governments have bone-fitted en- ormousiy from the research per- formcd in the colleges and from thc training which the education- al institutions have provided its younger citizens; and educational institutions have received much support and encouragement from government in carrying out their various programs.

This field of cooperation is one in which individuals and groups

have been taking an increasing in. terest. for the education of citiz- ens from the kindergarten up to the graduate school is a task in which all can ah!"

and from

50th lAnniversary Of Eastern King’s Trade Bd.

The 50th Eastern King's was observed last night at a d1...

which all will benefit.

The same interest and coopera- tion is important in the relations between business and education. for the educational institutions can keep in touch with the needs of the business and professional world. and provide appropriate training and rese rch. Business in turn has contrib ed enormously to the ivelfure of educational 1n- stitutions by encouragement of many kinds. Here too, ls a task for the local groups which can oon- cern themselves with nothing more practical than the improvement of educational facilities.

These forms of cooperation are of vital importance to the ivelfare of any state and of any commun- ity whatever its size. Local groups such as boards of trade. church organizations. service clubs. school improvement. leagues and such like, can lend their influence and sup- port by maintaining an interest in political. educational, and bus- iness problems and by assisting appropriate enterprises by contrib- uting advice. suggestions. and con- structive criticism. After all gov- ernment conducts their business. education trains their children; and business exists for their coiiven- iencc; democracy requires their participation in all three.

Monthly Meeting Ch'iown Council K. 0i a

The regular monthly meeting of Charlottetown Council Knights of Columbus was held in their hall Tuesday evening with Grand Knight Li". MacDonald presiding. The meeting opened with prayer

Principal .

offered by His Excellency Most Rev. James Boyle.

During the course of the even- ing considerable routine business was transacted. Communications were received from the Catholic Social Welfare Bureau and State Deputy Dr. J.A. MacMlllan re- ac- tivities of the Council. In their letter the former thanked the Council for the outstanding and most generous Christmas collec- tion on behalf of the poor of this city. ‘Ilhe State Deputy. in his let.- ter. stressed the importance of re-

tainlng membership at s. high level. Considerable progress was re-

ported for the Five Point. Bowling and Raffles committees headed by George Cheverie, Deputy Grand Knight Louis Butler, and Walter Morrlsey respectively. It was sug- gested that the Council carry out appropriate activities in keeping with this present Holy Year.

The lecturer, Wilfred Smith. and the treasurer. Charles Praught, eri. tertained the members with the following appropriate films: Sum- mer Camp for Boys; The Rising Tide; and Eicploratlon in Canada. It might interest the general pup- lio to know that the second film deals with the growth of co-oper- atives in the Maritime lfiovinces. This film, incidentally, ivas taken on Prince Edward Island and fea- tures many prominent Islanders.

Whitehall Notebook

By ALAN HARVEY

LONDON, Jan. 11 — (CP)--'l“:ie city slicker is gradually getting ahead of his country cousin, and it's a bad thing for Britain.

That's a short summary of views recently expressed by Professor Laurence Dudley Stamp, 51-year- old British expert on economic geography. who has consistently urged thc need of grou/ing more food in the United Kingdom.

“Our country's great menace." Professor Stamp said in a speech to the Royal Institute of Charter- ed surveyors. "is the growth of an urban mentality -_ thc delfication of an urban way of llfc, the con- cept of a standard of living as consisting of such material pos- sessions as refrigerators. motor cars and wireless sets. . . .

County Conflict

The professor. whose biography takes up nearly it eehlnn in Britain's Who's Who. thus put a

new twist on an old argument. For a long time, he has been con- cerncd about the new conflict of the countryside which is also wor- rying Whitehall - too many peo- ple chasing too llttla land.

With Britain already having a tougih time trying to support 48.- 000000 people. the urge among all government departments is for ex. pension.

Agriculture Minister Ton-i Wil- liams, who hopes that Britain will grow half her own food by 19M. naturally seeks more land for farmers. Service chiefs need more elbow room for training camps. and depots. Town and country planners wistfully scan blueprints for model communities based on a concept of l0 persons to en acre.

Towns To Starve In

Professor Stamp. awarded a spe- cial fellowship in 1003 to study problems of land use in the Uri- ited States, comes out strongly on behalf of agriculture.

What the planners are heading for. lie says. is "new towns to starve in."

Instead of the old Victorian in- diistrisl towns with 64 houses to

the sci-e. the standards for the new towns. taken over-all. are one acre per 10 persons. so that 6.000

Addresses Senior

Pupils of_ll_. S. S.

Yesterday afternoon the Senior pupils of Queen Square School assembled in their auditorium to hear a. practical talk on Farming by Mr. Lincoln Dewar. New Perth.

The speaker outlined the many advantages which farming offers as a. profession. Among such ad- vantages lie stressed were: the var- lcty of the work, the healthfulness of farm operations, the sense of independence which a farmer eii- joys and the pride of contribution to the needs of time's fellow-men. The fact that a farmer must be lIl carpenter, plumber. veterinary, machinist and mechanic, implied that he must have a wide know- ledge about the various crafts. The
