1. Flaw does the Liquor compare with the Dairy Busine ln.Ca.n- uh?

he the year ending March 31. 1010, Onindiuis spent n.mrrox1- mately 522 per capita for milk and M7 per caplui for alcohol.

I. How does the wheat crop of (hauls. compare in value with the outlay in Canada-on liquor?

Dr. Charlotte Whitten, C. B. 113., said at the Massey Hall meeting in November, 1049, that the great wheat crop of 1948 brought. 350,000.- !!!) Midty mvilwori dollars) less- than last year's drink bill.

I. How does Canada's Drink Bill compare with the sum spent for Education?

In the year 1949 the sum of 8M0.000.000 (two hundred and forty million dollars) was spent for education, but s63o,000,000 (six hundred and thirty million dollars) on alodholic beverages-more than two and a. half times as much as on education.

4. But is not the increasing gov- ernment revenue from the sale of liquor necessary for our increasing public expenses? 0

For the year ending March 31, 1950. the Liquor Commislon of Ontario paid into the Provincial Treasury 339,800,000 (thirty-nine million eight hundred thousand dollars)-just a portion of the in- direct costs of liquor to the Pro- vince. estimated at nearly 5100,- 000.000 (one hundred million dol- lei-s).

5. But does not the Liquor Re- venue make possible large expen- ditures for Public Welfare?

Liquor taxes of the Federal and Provincial governments totalled ap- proximately s263,000,000 in 19-18. The indirect cost of the traffic An Canada. including Public Welfare expenditures due to drinking, is estimated at s650,000.000 for 194R emore than two and a half times the amount received from liquor taxation. .

6. What are the Public Expen- ditures due to Liquor?

Accordingh to the Research Foundation of the Anierican Busi- ness Men's Association, for every dollar received as revenue from the Liquor Traffic it costs 89'; cents to oover the money expense from the results of the traffic. A report tabled in the Ontario Legislature oovering the first three months of 1948 showed that at that lime neorly two-thirds of prisoners in reform institutions were "linem-

perate drinkers". It costs sl.000 a year to keep a man in Don Jail, Toronto. Ontario's convictions for drunkenness in i948 were 33.446.

It is evident that the dollar rpont for liquor, often entailing tlrunkenness and home discomfort, cannot be spent for home comforts. out have we any way of computing this indirect cost to business?

'7. It is claimed that a liquor mire is good for general business.

Orillia, Ontario, had a local option volc in Noveinhcr, 1950. A study was niadc of trading con- ditions in Orilliar-a dry commun- ity since 1901- and Barrie, a licensed area 25 miles away. In Gig of a million dollars in liquor sales in Barrie and none in Oi-illia, the study revealed that: Orillia merdhants were receiving 5534 per capita from the people in their trading once. while Barrie iner- chants were receiving S410 per caplta from Ihe people in their Area. The population of the Barrie trading area is 50'; higher than that of the Orillia area.

The Right Honorable Churchill said years ago:

”If you can succeed in reducing the enormous EXpPll(IIiurP. on strong drink. every trade in the country will benefit. More food will be bought and better kinds of food; more clothing will be bought; more education, 3nd I be-tier kind of education will be given to children."

Oei'lin's words had ectrcelv ceased to sound before Jerry en- swered them.

”My only employer in this ore mine deal is Miss Walker," he said, "and 1 know what Break 0' Day's worth - and I'll see you two men damned before I flimflam her. You're a pair of thieves and 3. pair of murderersl"

Rose looked at him in unam- ment as he hurled that final epi- thet. Ca.rlin's gray face went white. Twombley sprang from his chair. oversetting it and drawing his re- volver. Then somebody - or something

pushed vehemently by him through the open door. Between him and the leveled barrel stood Angie.

Only Rose keipt her head. She struck down the leveled revolver.

"Who's this?" Carlin demanded of his confederate. "That Slinn wonian?"

Twom-bley. cheeks as fiery as hair, nodded. "I sent her to Don- caster cm a fake errand after I'd got her to write that note to get the Walker girl here. Didn't think she'd be back half this soon. Wish I'd have--"

But Rose was keeping a cool double grip on the wrist above the weapon.

Jerry's heart still threatened to crack the cage of his ribs. That ,body he had hauled from the .ci'z-el: -it was certainly a dead rhndx! He looked for water on the floor where Angie stood. Floor and Bkll'(S were dry.

Nevertheless. something had hap- ;pcncd to the recluse - somethiniz liiltimate. Her hrogans were while lultll road dust. Her apron hung ;nwi-y.

Quickly Rose spoke: know you had a-" ”Twombley knew it - and this other follow, if he's a fellow named Carlin. My own iwin bi-nliner Joe. It was them got him to hide here, dressed like me -even when you'd come, Miss Rose - after they'd oi- fered him half his insurance to pretend to commit suicide in the Hudson!"

"Shut up!" bawled Carlin.

To be concluded

Eisenhower Would Meet Slalin Srccessor -

WASHINGTON. fAPl-President Eisenhower took a position of alert watclifulness toward Russia today while expressing willingness to . meet a successor to Joseph Stalin . half way in the interests of world peace.

But Eisenhower said he is uti- ablo to say now what the effect of

Vi Stalin's iiicapacity willhave on the . struggle between the free world

and the Communist world.

Regardless of personalities in- volvcd, Eisenhower told I press conference. the goal of peace must be pursued seriously.

At 3 meeting or the Provinehl Red. Cross Executive held Wednes- day the following excerpt from I letter written by the wife of 3 surgeon now working in Guam was read by Mrs. E. A. Foster in pre- senting the report od her Com- mittee:-

"Gun is 3 most fucinetlng little city of some 50,000. plus some 200, 000 refugees. The surgical work for these refugees is done in the C. M. S. l-lomital under United Ne- tions by my husband. Medical and maternity work, except in very iii!- ficuit cases is done in the clinics at the nine camps in the area. There is is splendid TB. Hospital of 300 beds. I was very much pleas- ed in visiting the hospitals and clinics to see that every bed was covered with a colourful patch- work quilt. and the mark 'Gift of the Canadian Red Cross sewed on the corner. Each woman and girl was comfortable and warm in I bed Jacket or sweater with the same mark. In visiting the cloth- ing distribution centres of U. N. I saw packing case after packing case being opened - all from Canada - and what very fine quality blankets, quilts, clothing for adults and children, and best of all the lovely layettes - com- plete to the very last safety-pin. How I wished that some of the women who gave so much time to the Red Cross sewing groups could see the fruits of their work at the receiving end. I will hope to have some snaps of this work to take home wilh me."

The women in Prince Edward Island who helped to make up over 5,000 articles of clothing which were shipped for distribution in the above mentioned area last year will be glad to read this first-hand report on the comfort and solace their handiwork is

Meanwhile, Polish Minister Bien- islnw Kellee-Ki-3uz celled em the Danish foreign office and demand- ed that the MiG be returned to Po- land without delay.

Foreign Minister Ole Bioern Kraft told the envoy the matter would be taken up by the cabinet as soon as possible.

MIG fighters are used by the Communists against United Ne- tions forces in Korea. They are normally shy about combat close to Ihe ground lines.

A British Air Ministry spokes- man said, however. MIG eaentials "are pretty well known" from a damaged enemy plane salvaged of?! North Korea in 1951.

Might Have To Wait

Western experts working on the plane at the airport od Roenne, Bornholm, said the Poles might have to wait some little time to get it back because there are no run- ways on the island long enough to allow a jet to take odl.

Inlnndere can be proud of the way the Music Festival takes he of our community. ror one week all 'rouis lead to the Fsltivel. shipping and All other activities take second place. Either one has 9. real Job at the restivnl or one is interested in one'I children 3nd their friends; and in looking over any audience It the Fesilvtl one is always struck by the fact that people who have direct content with the renuvu are there in considerable numbers an inter- ested spectetors. 14' an interested enlightened public is needed to see us through our present oduo3tionel crisis we think that the Festival is playiing its part in the iieid of mus c.

Last week we discussed prelim- inary elimatlons And the need of railing standards each year. 'IIie statement we wish to deal with this week is:- "Adjudicafors en- courage pupils who definitely should be- discouraged."

Before dealing with this oom- plaint let us think about the aims of Festivals. Do we not hope to ed- ucste the general public to apprec- iatei what is good and what in bad in music.- and to encourage not only our future concert per- formers but also our lesser lights who may only bring pleuure to small groups in small communities?
