'THERE HAS BEEN little real ;.' collective bargaining since before the war," is an observation made imore than once by responsible , spokesmen both for management and labor since the wave of strikes began a year ago. They likewise offer reasons. One, they say, is the ;fact that both management and unions, of necessity, had to resolve their differences via Government boards during hostilities. Both are out of the habit of negotiating, and out of practice. Another reason given is that Government "interferes." There is still another reason, and perhaps the more potent one. It is found in the answer to the question, "Why does Government 'interfere'?" True bargaining steps out and Government steps in, nine times out of ten, because of management's obduracy, or union labor's. unreasonable demands and reckless use of the strike weapon, or all three. When one side or both carries its immovability or its intransigence to the point at which the public really suffers, "Government must step in. Collective bargaining already has been made a ;farce when either side uses public distress as a weapon against the other. Management's sins in this regard . are often hard to get at and not easy to see. For management can do its .share of the damage by doing nothing .at all. When unions use such irresponsible tactics they are painfully obvious. Witness the oil strike of a year ago, the shutdown of the soft coal fields last spring, and the paralysis of American railroads in the .early summer.

Collective bargaining will operate again when both management and labor hold their pressures against each other within the bounds of responsibility to the innocent public. H- INDICATIONS OF GROWTH DURING a thoughtful address to the B. C. School Trustees in convention at Prince George, Mr. H. N. MacCorkindale, superintendent of schools, Vancouver, made the startling statement that there are more children in Vancouver under school age at present than there are now in all the grades from one to thir teen in all the Vancouver schools. The annual average increase of children since 1941 in Vancouver is over 7,000. The figures in that city are indicative of the new demands that will accrue for more teachers and more accommodation as the years go by. From 'THE DESERTED VILLAGE' In all my wanderings round this world of care. In all my griefs and God has given my share; I still had hopes my latest hours to crown, Amidst these humble bowers to lay me down; To husband out life's taper at the close, And keeu the flame from wasting by repose. I still had hopes, for pride attends us still. Amidst the swains to show my book-learned skill. Around my fire an evening group to draw. And tell of all I felt, and all I saw; And, as a hare, whom hounds and horns pursue. Pants to the place from whence at first he Hew. I itill had hopes, my long vexations passed, Here to return and die at home at last O blest retirement, friend to life's decline. Retreats from care, that never must be mine. How happy he who crowns in shaaes liki these. A youth of labor with an age of ease; Who quits a world where strong temptations try. And, since 'tis hard to combat learns to fly! OLIVER GOLDSMITH. AS OTHERS SEE IT ' STILL NO HEAT : "We Ave in times that are passing stranee. A few years ago, council did not have the money to make improvements to the heating system at th town hall. Today, money has been allotted, but It is impossible to obtain necessary materials or labor. Carleton Place (Ont.) Canadian. TEAMWORK WINS Vhere Is more to sport than just winning a game. The players must learn to give and take, they must learn to play the game In a gentlemanly way and to be good losers as well as eood winners. It is teamwork together with the knowledge and stdll required to play the game, that -will count in the end. Huntingdon (Que.) Gleaner.
