NSTEAD
of
straining
our
eyes
looking
"around
the
corner"
for
that
phantom
which
men
call
"Prosperity"
and
never
overtake,
let
us
look
at
some
facts:
Our
natural
resources
are
still
beyond
any
accurate
estimate;
our
national
wealth
over
$30,000,000,000.
iSL
i
Our
banks
are
solvent.
Their
debits
are
1
1
per
cent,
more
to-day
than
they
were
ten
years
ago.
A
i
Their
savings
deposits
more
than
22
per
cent.
-
Twice
as
much
life
insurance
is
in
force.
Outsiders
knocked
dowrf
our
dollar
but
our
bills
to
the
world
have
been
paid,
our
taxes
met,
our
hungry
fed,
and
our
helpless;,sheltered.
-'
Masses
are
always
blinded
by
trie
immediate
view,
but
our
Canadian
people
are
coming
to
see
that
a
riot
of
economy
is
just
as-foolish
and
just
as
dangerous
as
a
riot
of
extravagant
spending.
"
Sane
men
of
every
class
must
realize
the
necessity
of
keeping
a
constant
unrelenting
contaet

While
the
optimists
were
peeking,
around
that
"comer1
and
the
minor
prophets
whispering
blue
ruin,
Canadian
corporations
in
1931
paid
out
in
dividends
$226,351,000,
an
increase
of
$32,500,000
over
the
average
for
six
years,
and
$50,000,000
better
than
any
year
in
Canadian
history
prior
to
1929.
Why
should
Canadians
stop
working
to
shake
apart
with
Fear?
All
the
"terrible
things"
that
were
to
happen
are
fading
out
of
focus
There
is
no

so

the
Canadian
consumer
as
his

newspaper.
