Dec. 15. 1930 Port George Liberals did well not tp contest the seat against the Conservative nominee, Whoever he may be, at this by-election. Nothing would be gained by a contest as the government already has a sufficiently large majority to carry on without depending on it The Christmas season is one of peace and good will whereas elections always engender flJ-wfli. That is one of the difficulties of our system, caused by the fact that the party in power vas the distribution of patronage. The Da fly News has received innumerable compliments on the special number it published on the occasion of the opening of the new power plant It was the biggest effort yet made in the city but far short of what we would like it to have been. AD we can say is that we did our best under the circumstances but that we are looking to do still greater things as the city grows and the merchants be-eooe better able to support such an effort ; "We?vegot to start to Save!" e .((How often the words arc uttered how. often the wish fails to harden into a definite resolve for lack of a workable plan.

To Canadian Contumers, Everywhere in Canada. v JSlore for Your Money, and of 'Better Quality! When it comes to buying, we are all htike in one respect, Weewant to get the most we can, the best we can, for our money f If our dollar has regularly been getting us 20 pounds of sugar, we are naturally pleased when, some day, it gets us 21 pounds. Arid if, on trying it at home, we find that at 21 pounds for a dollar we are actually getting a better quality of sugar than we formerly got at 20 pounds for a dollar, we're doubly pleased. Now while it may not do that exact thing, that's the sort of thing thai the "Produced-in-Canada" movement will do for everyone of ut if we will give it our whole-hearted support. Let me explain. Incidental to the operation of every manufacturing plant there are certain expense that are commonly spoken of as Asedcharge. Included in that category are such things as taxes, insurance, heat, light, superintendence, administration, depreciation, and interest on capital invested. Expanses such as these run along with little or no variation, month after month and year after year, whether the plant U operating-full time at full capacity, or only part time at partial bapadty. Now let us suppose for purposes of illustration that these expenses amount to f 25,000 a year, and that operating at full capacity, the plant is capable of producing each year lOOfiCO of whatever article it is making. If it really does operate at full capacity, the cost of each individual article will have been increased only 25 cents because of these Axed charges. But it the plant only operates at half capacity, that $25fi00 of fixed charges, spread over SOfiOO articles, will advance the cost of each article 50 cents. From this simple illustrationyou can easily see why it is to our advantage, as consumers, to favour Canadian plants in our buying so that they will always be able to operate at full capacity. The lower their production cost per unit, the more cheaply they will be able to sell to us But that is only half the story. After a plant has been operating for some years at half capacity its reserves, if not exhausted, are at least so reduced that it cannot afford to replace old machinery with new as one means of keeping abreast of the times. If half capacity means half time, as it often does, it cannot hold the best of its skilled workers; they leave to go where they can obtain steady work, and the plant must get along as best it can with " labour that is less efficient. And confronted with the necessity of putting expanses to the bone, it must forego all kinds of experimentation and research, with the result that the quality of its product shows no improvement, if it does not actually deteriorate. But let that plant be kept at full capacity, as the result of Canadian consumers preferring its products to imported products, and it will always be on the alert to see that it has the last word in new equipment, it will always be able to retain in its service the highest class of skilled labour, and it will always be able to afford the expense of laboratories for testing and research, as a means of discovering new ways to improve quality or to reduce costs. i In previous messages I have tried to make it clear why, by adhering to the "Produced-in-Canada" policy, we all stand to benefit indirectly in many ways. But let us not overlook the direct benefits it is certain to bring us, eventually if not immediately, by stretching every dollar we spend so that it will buy us a bigger quantity, in a better quality!
