DAILY EDITION, Are They Playing With Cost of Living? It looks as if the Canadian Government was only going to play with the cost of living question. If that is so there will be little patience with them. To say that the cost of living is high because the people are cheated by the small dealers is but begging the question. Three pounds on a peck of potatoes makes a dif- ference but not the difference that the inspector of weights and measures would have us believe. The President of the United States seemed to have struck the right spot when he forced down the price of everything, but whether the price will stay down and continue to drop, remains to be seen. The difficulty seems to be that production is re- quired and there will not be any forced production if the prices of products drops low. Not that there is any danger just now of their going down out of sight. Letters to Editor Always Welcome. The News welcomes letters from writers who have some publie question to discuss and can do so without introducing personalities and making themselves and the paper offensive. Sometimes it is absolutely necessary to say things which some people do not like, but as a general policy we do not go out of our way lo annoy people. We like to discuss questions on their merits and not bring peopie into the discussion in an offensive manner. Primarily a newspaper is for the purpose of disseminating news—as accurate news as possible. Secondly the dissemination of opinions comes within the scope of a newspaper and it is for that the editorial page is used, Naturally those opinions, like all opinions, are open to question. Here the correspondence comes in. Other people have opinions as well as the editor and some like to state them. The columns of The News are open for these people, but they must be stated in as moderate a manner as are the views expressed by the editor. Hard hitting is not a part of our general scheme. We prefer to discuss in a reasonable, moderate manner. THR DAILY EWS why that skin trouble, from which you are suffering, Will not heal?

DATED-at the Land Registry om A good letter is always welcome. We publish a good many, and readers seem to realize that they are welcome, but it must necessarily follow that a good many letters that are sent in never see the light of print. They do not conform with the ideals of the editor. Letters are always welcome, but not always printed. Labor’s Holiday Was Great Success. . Organized labor is to be congratulated on the excellent man- ner in which it provided holiday attractions for the people of the city yesterday. Every effort was made to please and the city responded magnificently. There seemed to be no hiteh in the proceedings from beginning to end, and the weather man lent his aid, The various committees in charge of the proceedings must have spent a great deal of time on the arrangements and they certainly brought results. As a reward they have the satisfaction which comes from having performed a public service. In a town like this jollifications are needed from time to time and yester- day's was among the best that has been held here.
