Dec. 1. ltttj MADE IN CANADA GIFTS The minister of trade and commerce is today making an appeal to Canadians to buy such Christmas gifts as will give employment to Canadian people. He quotes a number of figures to, show what a great thing it would be for the country if people would buy Canadian made goods. He estimates conservatively that Canadians spend $75,000,000 a year on gifts. If this were spent in Canada for goods made in Canada it would be a great help in the present un SsnnnrtrWl uAi-rfc nf anma fo f morula and relatives at asjcea VJ'WfWVfWW ft Vi tli V WVSW W WJStf www Christmas he is underestimating rather than over.

Daily News: In reply to your request for an expression of opinion relative to a' ftjwiiyear term for mayor, wer re: cordvour; .opposition. . A - few years ago ex-president Coolidge was urged to be a candidate in the 1928 campaign. He absolutely refused. He claimed that even the best of supermen had after all only a limited amount of good ideas fend that they should be able to give effect to their very best In four years. During long terms of office men were able to forget the good promises and virtuous past and fall victims to tha rnares of evil. This theory Is supported by much of the evidence produced at many of the lnvest-gatlons in civic corruption in several U. S. and Canadian cities. The New York Times Just now Is printing a series of articles on "Corruption in Civic Administration." Long term m office for mayor and aJdarmen, lahiie not proven as a cause for corrupt government. Is emphatically shown to be condu cive to ltx Some, few,, years ago one of the .'argest labor union In B.C. altered their constitution so as tc prevent members from holding, of -fice .more than one year. Other, have since adopted the same pre caution. Our provincial goverri ment, both past and present change police officers from plac to place quite frequently. The two-year term would tend U engthen the mayor's term of office. The two-year term for alder men which was folitered on us by the B. C. Union of Municipality as an experiment has not Impror ed civic government. Many claim it has made om? aldermen careless for the first year and a-hal' pf office. As Mr. Wesch pointed out Saturday, we must have an el ectlon every year In any event. How quiet It would be without a mayor to elct! An acclamation for mayor gave: us an example of thi !n Rupert a, few years ago. V.'e fall to, see any reform In th-suagttlon-merely change.

What do you auppote s the size ot Canada's annua! ift bill? Would jf turprise you to learn that it is vattly greater than the sum voted by Parliament in September last for the relief of unemployment? Note the foU lowing, and you will realize that it must be so. To begin with, everyone of her 10,000,000 people has a birthday each year. If only one in five receives a birthday gift, and it is worth only a dollar there is f 2,000,000 to begin with. ' About 70,000 weddings take place in Canada each year. At the low average of $100 for the presents sent each bride, there is another $7,000,000. And at least 500,000 of the wedding anniversaries celebrated each year are marked by a gift to the wife costing at the very least $5, So there it another $2,500,000. There are over 1,800,000 mothers in Canada and about the same number of fathers say 3,500,000 in all. With Mother's Day and Father's Day observed aswidely as they are, another $1,000,000 for gifts for them is easily accounted for. Other huge sums are spent for gifts to sweethearts, for bridge prizes, and for trophies for every conceivable kind of contest. And commencing now, and continuing for the next three weeks, comes the great annual round of gift buying that marks the Christmas season. Computing the per capita Christmas shopping bill at only $5.00, the aggregate for that alone would be $50,000,000! All told, Canadians probably spend well over $75,000,000 a year on things to be given away, sometimes as rewards but mostly as tokens of esteem or affection! And if we assume that in the production of every $7,500 worth of such goods, as sold at retail, steady employment has been given to one person, it follows that Canada's annual gift bill Is sufficient to keep 10,000 producers busy the year tound! With unemployment so prevalent in all parts of the country, with so many of our fellow Canadians dependant upon charity even for the bars necessities of life, don't you agree with me that the mpral obligation rests heavily on all of us to govern our Christmas gift buying by the "Produced-in-Canada" policy, to the end that it will help to give some fellow citizen a job? Another point! For our personal consumption we buy what we specific ally require, but for gift purposes we buy anything that we think will prove acceptable to the recipient. That being the case, shouldn't it always be easy to find, among the many splendid things that are produced in Canada, something that is suitable alike to the person and to the occasion? Remembering that this is the season of peace on earth and good wilt to man, and that the relieving of unemployment is one of the most ideal ways of spreading Christmas cheer, may I not plead with all of you to restrict your Christmas buying as far as possible to things that have been produced in Canada, so that in addition to bringing joy to the recipients of your favour, you will be conferring great happiness on some fellow Canadian who is now out of work!
