MEMBER OP CANADIAN PRESS AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS CANADIAN DAILY NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION Liberalism or (anadianism . . I T WAS A TIMELY RESTATEMENT of Liberal 6 party principles that Prime Minister W. L. Mac-. kensie King made last night in a national net-. work radio broadcast. It also rang with high princ- cipies of true Canadianism as the Prime Minister '. called for national unity instead of provincial or local sectionalism. When he said that the Liberal party stood for principles of unity, security and fi'eedom, not only nationally but internationally, and warned against the disastrous consequences of multiciplicity of political divisions within a na-tionj he was preaching good Canadianism and there 'are few who would venture to say that Mr. King is " not a true and good Canadian first and foremost. There is nothing more timely and reasonable than the exhortation which Mr. King made that ' -those who are like-minded on general principles should combine under one banner and proceed as one instead of becoming divided in less important .-shades of opinion. In multiplicity of parties lay great danger, said Mr. King, citing the world's most tragic illustration in France. One wonders if Mr. King might, by any chance, have had the thought that, while he was advancing the cause of Liberal-: ;Jfcm as a party, it might be necessary to combine utgven more broadly along party lines to maintain 'Unity, security and freedom. Qui:e possibly he -. 'might picture such changes as being possible within thp compass of true Liberalism which has always "'boasted its capability of generous interpretation ,tuind elasticity. Not All Strikes publicity machines WELL-OILED of the labor lead- ers never let the public miss hearing about those cases where they have "forced" management to give higher swags and better working con-ifons; how union "demands" " ttiVe successfully "wrung new concessions from the bosses." What very seldom gets into the news are those thousands upon thousands of cases, where iBanagement has taken the in-iative in bettering the position of its employs. Some strikes we have had. But it should be remembered that only a very small pro- portion of the working population was tangled in this form of warfare. The vast majority of employees have continued to get along well with their employers with increasing rewards.

Senator McGeer Wins RUPERT PEOPLE, PRINCE who are voting themselves today, followed with keen interest the municipal election in Vancouver yesterday particularly the mayoralty contest and there appears to be satisfaction that the colorful man of ideas and action Senator Gerry McGeer is once again chosen chief magistrate of British Columbia's greatest city. Under the previous Mc- Geer regime, Vancouver got many things accomplished. In common with other places, Vancouver must have action again this time so it turns to McGeer. He was chosen because he was the most promising of action among the three candidates. Somewhat surprising to many was the relatively poor showing made by the C.C.F. candidate for mayor of Vancouver, popular Tom Alsbury, who ran second instead of getting into office on the split of his opponents as many had been expecting he might do. Tonight we shall know whether the trend shall be the same here with the independent candidates getting in or if the voting strength of the socialistically inclined is as strong as it once was here.

In districts like Strathdan and Corgarff some families are nine miles from the nearest shop and in winter roads are blocked with snow for weeks at a time. In the past, purchase of a boll (140 pounds) of oatmeal in the fall provided a safeguard against hunger in the winter. Under rationing; this represents 280 points and each Is allowed only 32 points a month. Storekeeper Thomas Shand said he has known families to be snowbound for 13 weeks. Before the war a common order for a family in i remote district was a bag of oat meal, a bag cl flour, a bag of salt and 100 pounds of sugar.
