Britain's
hope
for
permanent
economic
salvation
depends
upon
the
regaining
of
the
world
markets
foi-
her
products,
Rt.
Hon.
Herbert
Morrison,
who
is
visiting
Canada,
told
the
Canadian
Club
at
Ottawa
on
Saturday.
So
the
British
Labor
government
adopts
the
same
economic
theory
that
has
been
practised
in
Britain
since
the
industrial
revolution
and
which
led
to
her
unprecedented
era
of
progress
and
prosperity
in
the
last
of
the
Nineteenth
arid
the
first
of
the
Twentieth
Century.
Now
it
is
admitted
that
Britain
must
regain
the
trade
outlets
wjjich
she
lost
during
the
war
if'
she
ifgto
return
to
an
even
economic
fvThe
same
orthodox
prescription
Will,
of
course,
be
made
for
the
permanent
'
ecpnomic
restoration
of
other
countries
once
their
wheels
of
Production
can
be
put
in
motion
ipfain.
Then
there
may
again
be
the
Old
competition
for
the
world
markets
which
invariably
leads
to
war
to
maintain
national
preservation.'
So
in
this
world
it
becomes
more
and
more
apparent
that
the
selfish
Imperialistic
and
nationalist
ideas
will
have
to
be
relinquished
if
peace
is
to
be
maintained.
We
will,
instead,
.have
to
learn
to
live
internationally
and
develop
a
system
of
giving
and
preceiving
nation
between
nation
that
.will
ensure
to
each
citizen
of
each
nation
in
comfortable
measure
the
goods
he
needs
for
the

There
is
abundance
in
the
world.
If?
the
machinery
can
be
devised
and
the
will
applied
to
make
it
function
.equitably
through
the
application
of
jirjnciples

consideration

for
things
that
are
after
all
;
unessential
to
good
living
the
world
;
could
be
a
peaceful
and
happy
place.
;
In
other
words,
we
must
learn
to
;
think
of
our
neighbor
and
do
to
him
;as
we
would
be
done
by
on
a
broader

than

One
of
the
most
costlv
and
use-
fless
strikes
in
Canadian
history
end-

week
when

jarge
majority
voieu
to
go
nacK
to
work,
says
Financial
Post.
By
this
vote
the
men
are
accepting
exactly
;
what
was
offered
by
the
company
be-
fore
they
walked
out.
In
other
words,
rthe
strike
was
absolutely
unnecessary,
exactly
on
a
par
with
an
exceedingly
bloody
battle
fought
after
the
!
armistice
terms
had
be?n
arranged.
I
In
briefest
form
here
is
the
cost
jof
the
Ford
strike
at
Windsor:
;
99
days
lost
by
10,000
workers;
i
.:.
Well
over
$5
milions
lost
in
"wages;
5,000
urgently
needed
cars
not
;,made;
To
these
direct
losses
must
be
added
the
hardship
to
workers'
families
with
pay
cheques
cut
off
for
jjnonths
before
Christmas,
the
col-'lapse
of
business
for
local
merchants,
export
opportunities
thrown
away;
land
more
idle
days
for
thousands
of
"workers
waiting
for
plant
to
be
put
in
shape
to
operate
again.
.
For
all
this
needless
waste
those
Uabor
union
leaders
who
called
the
-strike,
and
those
communist
aviators
who
fanned
it,
must
accept
the
major
responsibility.
The
worker,
who
foots
the
bills,
must
now
won-.der
at
the
leadership
he
has
chosen
'or
permitted
to
represent
his
in-iterests.
In
this
case
it
should
be
ab-jundantly
clear
that
he
has
been
the
jvictim
of
an
unnecessary
squabble
land
of
political
agitators
whose
only
iinterest
was
stirring
up
class
strife.
Unholy
Railway
Plot
.
.
.
Decision
of
the
two
Canadian
railways
against
re-oneniner
the
old
Hotel
Vancouver
is
far
more
sinster
than
appears
on
the
surface,
says
a
Vancouver
Sun
editorial.
It
is
the
heaviest
blow
the
tourist
business
of
British
Columbia
has
ever
received
but
there
is
far
worse
to
come.
The
plain
fact
is
that
the
railroads
have
made
an
unholy
alliance
which
will
stifle
the
tourist
traffic
for
the
next
five
years.
Refusal
to
restore
the
hotel
is
only
part
of
the
deal.
Before
the
war
the
railways
competed
for
coastal
passenger
trade,
each
with
a
fleet
of
luxury
liners.
That's
alii
over
now.
They
haven't
got
the
ships
and
they
aren't
going
to-
build
any
replacements.
Talk
about
cartel!
For
sheer
callous
indifference
to
the
public
in-
terest,
the
railroads
surpass
anything
uncovered
by
the
trust-busters
or
the
combines
investigators.
When
the
C.N.R.
got
into
bed
with
the
C.P.R.
to
share
the
new
'
Hotel
Vancouver
the
public
should
have
been
warned
that
no
good
could
come
from
such
a
union.
The
railroads
should
not
have
been
al
lowed
to.
mate.
It
was
atjainst
na
lure.
Fruits
of
their
financial
mis
cegenation
are
now
to
be
seen
in
the
ship
compact.
D.
C.
Doleman,
president
of
the
UP.K.,
recently
went
to
Great
Brit
ain
to
order
fleet
replacements.
He
came
back
without
awarding
a
single
contract.
British
shipyards
were
choked
with
orders.
The
alternative
is
to
build
the
ships
in
Vancouver,
even
at
a
slightly
higher
cost.
The
C.P.R.
won't
do
that,
however,
because
its
construction
funds
are
anchored
in
England
in
blocked
sterling.
The
sum,
realized
from
war
earnings
and
insurance,
is
close
to
$50
millions
bul'it
'has
to
be
spent
in
Britain.
So
the
C.P.R.
discarded
the
idea
of
using
Pacific
Coast
yards;
it
will
wait
for
a
few
years
in
hopes
of
getting
better
terms
in
Britain.
The
hotel
agreement
rrieansrthat
the
C.N.R.
will
also
wait.
It
won't
try
to
replace
the
Prince
Robert
and
the
Prince
David,
converted
to
naval
use,
or
the
Prince
George,
burned
and
wrecked
up
the
coast.
It
will
get
along
iwith;
the
venerable
Prince
Rupert,
with
'the
possible
addition
of
a
remodelled
corvette
of
the
"Castle"
class
for
the
Queen
Charlotte
logging
camp
runs.
Picture
what
is
going
to
happen
next
summer,
and
the
next
and
the
ones
after
that.
Even
before
the
war
the
passenger
crush
was
terrific.
What
will
it
be
like
when
the
rail
ways
try
to
cone
with
it
on
a
make
shift
basis,
with
vessels
which
were
headed
years
ago
for
the
marine
bone-yard?
The
companies
don't
care.
Thev
are
perfectly
willing
tp
betray
their
trust,
it
doesn
t
matter
to
them
that
thousands
of
shipyard
workers
must
walk
the
streets.
Why
should
they
worry
about
the
loss
of
British
Columbia's
once-thriving
tourist
traffic?
The
companies
have
made
a
deal
.between
themselves.
Neither
will
try
to
get
ahead
of
the
other.
When
they're
good
and
ready
they
will
get
their
ships
and
not
before.
But
it
will
haye
to
be
done
together..
It
will
be
a
crime
against
this
province
if
they
are
allowed
to
get
away
with
it.
Public
opinion
should
force
them
to
build
two
or
three
ships
each,
in
Vancouver
or
Victoria,
or
Prince
Rupert,
and
to
open
their
vacant
hotel.
In
fact,
their
hotel
merger
ought
to
be
dissolved
entirely,
by
government
action
if
necessary,
as
contrary
to
public
policy.
Let
them
get
out
and
hustle.
There's
plenty
of
business
for
both
and
lots
more
to
come
if
they
will
only
compete
for
it.
But
there
won't
be
any
tourist
business
for
British
Columbia
none
to
speak
of
if
the
railroads
are
allowed
to
strangle
it
by
under-cover
agreements.
