It is sometimes advisable to "follow thecrowd"—to ac- cept the popular verdict.

In respect .to Lilo Insurance, tor example, lt is clear that very strong reasons musa have inﬂuenced the nuru erous persons whose applications for protection have, for thlrtogn succzaslve years, given the Great-West 1.11s the largest Canadian Business o1‘ nil the Canadian Companies.

TUESOAY, DECEMBER 28, 1920

TIIIC (‘HUI Ii \\'.\ VIC A veritable wave of critne is sweeping over many Canadian and American cities at present. lllurder

' and robbery are 0f almost daily and nightly occur -

encc and thc police arc lacpt. busy with but indiffer- ent success in stemming the yvave, while the tltcor - Tsts arc equally brssy trying to account for 1t. One blames the laxity of the police, another blanles the war and still zmothcl- blames tho prevailing uncut - oloy/ment. While each 0f these may contribute its

quota to what is certainly an alarming condition, it is possible that a (lccpcr and more potent cause ex- ists. There is another wave sweeping over the world thattis even more dangerous than the wave of mur- der and robbery; that other wave is--for want of a better riamw-Bolshevism. A better nzune might be Socialism run mad. When "from the soup box ‘ and street corner and by rmmphlct and newspapers (lcma gogues and agitators denounce existing institutions. advocate the confiscation, 0f capital, and preach s0- calletl equality and all the other rot that has been very largely instrumental in causing many of the strikes and disturbances that have almost paralyzed industry bot-h in Canada and the United States, thr- nost natural thing in theixvorld to follow is a wvtvc of crime. There are manyvrht) listen L0 these (lenta - gogues- litany who find it convenient to believe in

thcln and to believe is to becnnic u criuliuzll.

Police laxit) is not wholly blameless n01- is the looiicc court. There should be no compromise with crime, no laxity in punishiilsy the guilty. .

To say that the war is cwcu a contributory cztltsi‘ or that rctilrlretl soldiers, as such, are implicated. is aimply an insult. Slatcltrzrs and evade-rs arc much more likely t0 yicltl t0 BOlShQVlSHl than those men whr risked their lives for a cause they believed in. Wher the present wave of Bolshcvism is stemmctl, as il should be by stern measures, then we may expect the crime xvuve to subside, not till then.

The British Government is appropriating" ltalf a billion dollars for housing purposes. Houses there, well as on this side of the Atlantic are very bad itccded and in making this large appropriation tlr Government is serving two purposes, providing hou es and providing employment, for over there as (WC here, there is much uncmpioyirueut. Strange to say the Ilritisb Trade Unions refuoc t0 llllUW the unem- ployed British ex-soltliers to be trscll in the building operations- They threaten to strike if thesz- or an} others outside of their unions are perruitjtcd to wor] m the new buildings. An ugly feature of the situat ion is that there is a scarcity of bricklaywarsvantl mas ons and although therearc many of thcsc scckin employment, many of them- tax-soldiers, they arc no permitted to work. It will be remembered that cvc" during the war, when the Empire yvas fighting‘ f0 its life, leading British Unions refused to pcrtni “dilution 0f labor", a term given to the temploylnczi of titese outside the unions.

The British press and the British public arc be coming impatient with this unfair and unjust mono poly on the part of the unions and the opinion i freely expressed that Unitmism is put-stung t suicidal policy.

There is much to bc said in favor of lllillllllSn‘. nuch creditable history to look back Llptlll but wbe; it presumes to govern, when it shows the lutli-rmtrl oflsectionalisln and class government it will be th beginning 0f the cndcf unionism.

There is no doubt that many foreigners havr worked their way into many unions particularly’ i! Great Britain; no doubt that foreigners and agitat- ors have obtained considerable control in union this side of the Atlantic. If these elements are per- mitted to obtain a controlling interest in any rmior they will compass the ruin of the union. As an ex- change points out “The Government's first duty i: to find some method of-easirtg the unelnployluenl crisis. If it has to fight the unions, it will have tilt support of the laubiic. Instead of being supports f0 the __g'erteral position of Labor. the Ltnions will be p11‘. m the false position of trade oligarchies putting up “Keep off the grass" sigrns to all other clussc: o1’ workers. This will cause a row lurt\.\'ccr1 classc: of workers, and certainly," catunol b0 in the interest of Labor as u wholc. Nothing would better serve thr anti-Labor interests than continued cxclttsitmist pol- icy by the building trades tmions."

It is estimated that this province produces be- tween three and a half and four million dozen egg: a year. Last year the total export of eggs from Ca- nada, according‘ l0 customs returns was 733,44’ "lozen. If all other provinces put together pro- duce only twice as many eggs as this‘ province tht total egg_p_rotluclion 0f Canada would be over twelve |11lllI0ll dozen. In addition to our own pro ductron Canada imported last year 1,753,122 dozer eggs, a total Canadian and imported product o.’ nearly thirteen million dozen. Yet we exported lml "about three quarters of a million dozen and somr people tell us the home market is of little or no use to Canada.
