HEAR at every hand these days from coast WE to coast of the peril that is facing our free democracy here in Canada, of the persistent influences that are out to undermine it and then take com i ill. The press and certain organizations, even including some labor leaders, have taken up the battle but what are the ordinary people doing about it? Why do the people who would be most seriously affected if the system were changed continue to take a passive and indifferent attitude, apparently leaving it to some one else to fight the battle for the basic freedoms of democracy which others are working hard these clays to take away? Canadians should be more actively conscious of the perils which face their way of living as selfish groups of non-productive people plan and advise against the primary basis of freedom in Canada. If we lose that freedom we can blame our own lethargy, both of mind and action, as much as subversive infiltration. as possible while the city would formed the Petitioners that it leasues.

UOfUhf uilb Cttitadi.tni in evtry w.di of Hjt u COLLEGE EDUCATION AN INCREASE in the number of manual ONLY workers will slow down the growing migration of professional and technical workers from Canada to the United States. The Dominion is producing more educated persons than the country can provide educated incomes for on a scale com-narahle to that of educated individuals in the United States. And the United States is producing fewer educated persons than it can incomes for. So says B. K, Sandwell of Toronto, well known lecturer, writer and student of economic trends and theories. In other words, Canada is turning out more educated men and women fhan the national economy can afford. It is, doubtless, true enough examples can be seen of where time spent at a university is largely wasted. Efford directed in some other direction might be best in the long run. Misfits are by no means few, and usually costly, not to mention reappointing. To do 'what one .likes to do, is to be greatly blessed.

On top of all this the seven year lag in normal new con .miction has pyramided present building demands. Disregarding new buildings entirely, this factor of larger enrolments has increased school costs by at least 30 since 1945. SCHOOL COSTS WILL CONTINUE TO RISE B.C.'s population Will continue to grow through lrhfhi-1 gratton which will bring eventually added prosperity but immediately increased education costs. A There should be a general reduction In class size as soon as the shortage of teachers has been alleviated. Teachers' salaries are still too low.

The actual aggressor in 1870 it's Here Nowl THE NEW S -QUART PRESTO Meat -Master ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL MEMORIAL to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, THE unveiled in London yesterday, is ten feet in height. It stands in Grosvenor Square facing south. The bronze statue portrays the former President standing bareheaded, dressed in a double-breasted lounge suit, soft shirt and four-in-hand tie. He is wearing the naval type he favored in his lifetime. It is draped about his shoulders and a walking stick protrudes from, its folds on the lower right. Roosevelt's left hand is clasping his left lapel. The memorial is the first purely British gesture in honor of an American president. Already there are statues of Lincoln and Washington but both are results of American interest. This represents co-operative effort on the part of the Pilgrims' Society and the British government. The cost was $160,000 through public subscription. Perfect spring weather .prevailed and, after the solemn ceremony ended, the great assembly which had stood in deeply respectful silence, slowly dispersed. Winston Churchill, in the course of an address on the establishment of the memorial, said these words: "Of Roosevelt, it must be said that had he not acted when he did, in the way he did and had he not resolved to give aid to Britain and to Europe in the supreme crisis through which we have passed, a hideous fate might well have overwhelmed mankind and made Its whole future sink into shame and ruin. It may well be that the mm we honor today not only anticipated history but altered its course." Blsmark, having established was Napoleon III, not Bismark. the necessary military and political conditions for a united German nation, proceeded to cultivate the national development with a system of national schools.
