THE
CONTEMPLATIONS
of
an
editor
around
j
New
Year
are
felt
from
two
connecting
though
:
different
points
of
view.
One
is
in
retrospective
thought
of
the
negative
pole
of
a
year
that
has
pkssed
intp
eternity.
The
other
is
the
prescience
of
the
positive
pole
of
a
new
year
of
an
eternity
that
is!
to
eome.
t
:
The
first
full
year
of
peace
has
ended
a
year
which
opened
with
the
hearts
of
all
mankind
lifted
up
by
faith
in
the
hope
and
promise
of
world
security
and
peace
through
the
United
Nations
organization.
But
from
San
Francisco
onward
every
meeting
seelned
plagued
by
gremlins
of
discord,
and
our
eialted
hopes
came
near
to
crashing
into
utter
despair.
j
Never
were
patience,
tolerance
and
determination
to
achieve
high
objectives
so
justified
and
rewarded.
For
the
final
meetings
toward
the
end
of
the
year
were
free
of
the
discordant
elements,
and
concord,
goodwill
and
understanding
prevailed.
Canada
has
enjoyed
prosperity
in
1946.
Ex
c&pting
for
the
numerous
strikes,
practically
full
employment
has
existed
with
high
production
for
an.
eager
market.
;
British
Columbia
has
shared
well
in
these
con-
ditions.
The
agreement
between
the
Dominion
and
tne
Province
should
strengthen
both
governments
to-meet
the
economic
challenge
of
the
future
years.
s
Some
communities
in
this
part
of
the
country
have
experienced
their
greatest
period
of
prosperity,
due
almost
entirely
to
the
buoyancy
and
increased
production
of
the
lumber
industry.
Looking
toward
the
New
Year,
the
international
outlook
is
brighter
for
all
nations.
Canada,
which
does
a
great
world
trade,
particularly
with
the
British
Commonwealth
and
the
United
States,
can
anticipate
continued
business
activity
that
can
only
be
threatened
by
a
recession
in
the
U.S.A.,

some
fear
is
indicated

Red

Appeal
WEEK,

to
NEXT

the
Canadian
Red
Cross
.Society
places
a
new
and
vital
appeal
before
the
citizens
of
British
Columbia.
The
appeal
not
for
money
is
for
voluntary
blood
donors,
people
who
are
willing
to
give
their
blood
so
that
every
hospital

have

Most
of

are
familiar
with
Ctcnada's
wartime
blood
donor
program
to
supply
the
blood
plasma
which
saved
the
lives
ofcountless
wounded
Canadians,
'some
of
us
gave
our
blood
but
many
of
us
did
not
have
the
opportunity.
K
survey
of
Canadian
hospitals,
including
those
in
British
;
Columbia,
emphasized
the
post-war
need
for
the
same
ki$d
of
service
a
service
that
will
benefit
all
of
us.
Now
we;
can
do
pur
part
and
share
with
others
the
knowledge
that
our
willingness
to
volun-tee'i.our
blood
will
mean
lives
saved.
Wartime
research
on
the
new
uses
for
human
blood
and
Its"
derivatives
has
brought
abbut
great
medical
advances.
Human
blood
and
plasma
have
been
used
with
great
effectiveness,
in
the
treatment
of
'
those
injured
and
burned.
The
Canadian
Red

has
undertaken

Branch
has
accepted
the
responsibility
of
undertaking
the
registration
of
citizens
who
wish
to
become
voluntary
donors.
This
newspaper
commends
the
Red
Cross
Blood
Transfusion
Service
as
a
challenging
opportunity
for
the
citizens
of
this
community
to
take

active

Three
companies
of
which
two
are
in
New
South
Wales
and
one
in
Victoria,
are
sharing
profits
irrespective

graphs.
Outstanding
among
these
three
companies
for
its
successful
record
is
a
firm
making
linseed
on
in
Sydney.
In
1944,
the
company
was
in
a
bad

finan
cially.
Preference
shareholders
met
and
agreed
to
cancel
$60,000

and
a
nun
per
cent,
ana
to
give
half

net
profits
to
the
workers.
Pay
Dividends
In
the
first
year
of
operation
under
this
plan,
the
company
paid
a
dividend
of
six
per
cent,
instead
of
the
42
per
cent
agreed'
upon,
after
giving
the
workers
their
share
of
the
profits.
The
company
maintained
peak
production
all
year
without
absenteeism
or
disputes.
Most
Australian
employers
favor
the
bonus
method
of
profit
sharing
as.
a
basis
for
cooperation
between
worker
and
employer,
but
do
not
agree,
to
the
sharing
of
profits.
They
say
that,
although
it
may
work
in
odd
cases,
it
would
not
work
generally
because
it
is
economically
unsound.
The
Australian
Associated
Chamber
of
Manufacturers
says
that
profit
sharing
would
be
more
effective
in
small
enterprises
than
in
large
concerns,
where
It
could
reduce
waste
and
give
greater
scope
for
skill.
The
workers'
view,
as
express
ed
by
trade
unions,
is
that
the
bonus
method
is
not
acceptable
because
it
cculd
be
used
as
a
speed-up
mechanism
to
make
more
profit
at
the
workers'
expense.
They
are
all
in
favor,
however,
of
the
sharing
of
actual
profits.
