The Quebec Elections

At the time of writing the fndioationg u; ti“; he Um?“ Natllmalc Pa"? under Mr. Maurice Duplessis will have the largest number of seat; m the next Quebec Legislature, with m. Lib- erals s close second. The Bloc Populaire of- fered no serious competition. Unfortunately, unless the followers of Premier Godlbotit and Mr. Duplessis can form a coalition —- which seems doiibtful~ihere is little prospect of any stable government. This will mean another elec- tion in the near future-a thing to he doubly d¢Pl°l'_€d iii view of the bitterness which this ralitnigii generated.

The Godbotii Government would have had a better chance but for unfortunate alignment with the hlagkeiirie lxiiig ‘(IOYCTIIIIICIII at Ot- tawa. The Iremier and I‘.lS colleagues sought to dissassociste themselves from this connection, but it was emphasized too strongly by their op- ponents to be forgotten,

The result is not pleasant for the King Government ‘to contemplate, nor is it satisfactory from s provincial standpoint unless some work- lng agreement bi-twccn the dominant parties can '_-e arranged.

A letter stating disapproval of the plan to adopt a national Canadian flag has been sent to the junior Chamber of Commerce of Levis, Que, by the London, (Ont.) Chamber of Com- merce. The letter was in reply to a query sent by the Levis junior Chamber asking the opinion of the London chamber on the plan for s new flag. The flag suggested was half red, half ivhite, with s green maple leaf in the centre. The subject of the flag was discussed st the annusl meeting of the junior chambers in Mont- real and delegates then decided the proposal was beyond the scope of the organization.

Even if the niost pessimistic view of Can- ada's future as an egg exporting nation were taken, if Canada should consider that as soon ls the aftermath of war permitted Britain would secure her eggs and egg products from the same source that supplied them in the past, it must be agreed that at least until that time a greater or less volume would be required from Can- sda.

Some Apt Quotations

Speaking at London. Ontario. .\[r. H, Macdonnell, formerly of tlie National Trust Company and now one of Mr. Bracken's can- didates in Ontario, made some interesting points with respect to the C. C. F. After deducing from the Saskatchewan election’ and the cani- paign put up by the C. C. F. that farmers of the West do not want socialism, Mr. Macdon- nell went on:

"Organized labor doesn't want socialism. Labor is wise, politically, and is well aware that lalwiir unions can only function when they deal with employers as equals, not when the employer is tlie state itself, and thst in social- ist countries laibor unions are unions in name

have found refuge in the Bloc Populaire, whilst the radicals have allied themselves with the C. C. F. It cannot be said that tlie Conservatives are gaining where the Liberals are losing. If we add to this the recent complications such as the McTague speech and the Boucliard “bomb", it is clear that the party is in a delicate situation and that it must find some formula for reform- ing its ranks between now and the general elec-

tioris. i l i it

The United States Senate liquor shortage investigating committee accuses four big distil- lery groups of moving to monopolize the pro- duction of alcoholic beverages, including whisky, wine aiid beer. The report, made public by chairman Patrick McCarran (Dem, Nev.) said that together, the National Distillers Products Corp, Schenley Distillers Corp, Distillers Cor- poration-Seagrams, and Hiram \Valker-Gooder- ham and Worts, "have in their possession today about 70 per cent of the nation's supply of whisky.” This possession has reached 70 per cent compared with an ownership of 49 per cent in i939, the report declared, despite the fact that since October, i942, there has been iio whisky distilled and “there has been a con- stant drain upon the inventories of the big
