WELD 1'0 OR GUIDE?

The " ‘Mi Coll! v a ‘of the Church oi Elllllnd, at a re- jcent conference, decided to permit iSunday games on lands belonging to the Church. The decision raised iquite a discussion in the course of which the Dean of Exeter is re~ ' ported as saying that Sunday recre- ation. whether they liked it or not. - had come to stay and that it was impossible to stop it. The real question. he said, was whether the church should oppose the movement or seek to guide it; and he was in favor of the latter. Without refer- ring to the wisdom or unwisdom oi the decision, the point raised by the Dean of Exeter is perhaps of more importance even than the question of Sunday recreation.

We in this rapid age ‘have seen many things "come to stay" that had no place to stay in even a coin- paratively few years ago. Things stay it we permit them to stay. Sunday is not the holy day it was a generation ago. Political corrup- tion is more openly practiced than ever before, even the Speech pill into the mouth oi His Excellency’ the Governor General at the open- ing oi Parliament has been known ‘to make statements which looked suspiciously like preparation for an ielcction. lias it, too, come to stay’? ~l=l it ,like Sunday recreation. till- preventible and can we guide it? i What is the driving force behind

summarized as follows:-

During the war, ‘ and for some time afterward, railway wages in Canada coniormed automatically with those fixed in the United States: and in 1921, when reduc- tions were ordered by the United States lLabor Board, those were also applied to Canada. in 1924 the trainmen of the United States were given a 6 per cent. increase, a. demand for a further increase oi aotne 1'8 per cent. has since been made, and a decision has just-been given ‘by a_newly established Unit- ed Ststes Labor tribunal for an in- crease of 7% per cent.

per cent. over that which was fixed in 1920. The following is a state- ment of the wage increases asked for -by Canadian trainmen, as pre- ‘ ’ before the Board of Canoni- atlon in Montreal: .

es asked will amount to 818,000,000 a year, and that the railways have ‘not the resources to meet these de- -mands.

Between these arguments and counter arguments it is diilicull: for the average man to discern the truth. One thing, however, is clear. 1t is that if the Canadian National Railways, with an already annual deficit of 820000.000, are called up- on to put up 88,000,000 or $9,000,- 000 more a. year for wages, that amount must mine out of the pock- ets of the taxpayers of this coun- try. Either that or freight rates will have to be increased. The only conclusion, therefore, is that in this matter the public is between the devil and the deep sea; and the only way out would seem to be some reasonable settlement until

creased railway earnings arrive to remove the difficulty.
