That may sound like a silly question but it is doubtful if the average individual can answer it, except in a superficial : way by saying that it is made up of coins and bills ; stamped by public authority for use as a medium of exchange. But it is possible to have an abun-; dance of such coins and bills and at the same time ; have very little real money for their value depends ; solely upon the amount of things we can procure in exchange. There is such a thing as too much money. For ; instance, never has the private sector of the econ-' omy in Great Britain been more solvent financially, . and more hard up in real terms. Most farmers are olit of, debt, industrial concerns have large re-i serves, the banks are highly liquid, and many fam-; ilies have substantial holdings in certificates, post ; office savings and other encashable investments. ; There is a 1400,000,000 unemployment insurance ; fund. These reserves may impart a comforting .sense of security but what other solace do they pro-; ' "vide -in the prevailing austerity? With all this money saved up for a rainy day Britons have been freezing and paralyzed because they did not save !up enough fuel. ' . What is true of coal is true of everything else. ; The doctrine that full employment can be achieved am! -rroothly maintained by an adequate supply ; of nurchasing power has failed at the first test ' ; and it can go on the shelf with its fellow-delusion that the problem of production has been solved. So while the government mints coins and prints bills, the value of such currency is dependent upon . industrial enterprise, the productivity and the costs of labor and all services including govern- ; ment services, for "which taxes have to be paid. In other words, a nation's Teal wealth consists of an juntrammeled and profitable industrial enterprise : which builds up a capital structure which in turn depends upon the reasonable co-operation of labor in keeping down the costs of production. Z. If labor were to take away in wages all the profits of industry and give a minimum of work in ' return, the purchasing nower of money would de-: cliner anA industrial enterprise would die for lack, , of - capital. Moreover the" re would be rio reserved ; to draw upon for future emergencies or .even to meet the various claims of social security. PUTTING SOCIALISM OVER THE Co-operative Commonwealth Federation had content during the hard times of the thirties j and took advantage of the prosperity which most people enjoyed during the war years to spread and ! develop its doctrines. While believers in other poli-i tical.and cononyc theories were smugly and com-: placently inactive, the C.C.F. kept consistently on ' with its missionary -work. Now, at its British Col-; umbia-Yukon conference in Vancouver, presuming that it .will come into power at the next provincial election in British Columbia, it is telling what it '. intends to do when it assumes office. It suggests ! thatt meantime, the country is running into an eco-; nomic crisis and that a depression is due which will ; make that of the early thirties look like a tea party. ; In other words, the C.C.P. is reverting to its typical inform of blue ruin talk. J" The C.C.F. advocates may not be insincere in ( their indoctrination but the question still arises if their visionary doctrines would stand up in this fc world of materialism and desire for personal free-dom and the right to do and enjoy for one's self. ' PART OF THE WAY 4 WE LOOK AT BRITAIN and see where a Labor government, established by a government there which was a counterpart of our C.C.F., is going part way m the implementation of its . policies nationalizing the sources of wealth production and the public services but not bold yet to go the rest of the way by commandeering the means of operating those sources and services which means are the services of the people themselves. In other words, they are conscripting wealth but are hesitating about conscripting manpower and the result is that initiative, the exercise of which is vital to any system of personal freedom, is diminishing. The situation is thereby arising whereby the ; production of Britain is languishing and the coun-; try is in imminent peril of economic ruin and losing ; her position of greatness in the world. The Labor ; government has done the easy things and now it faces the difficult and distasteful ones. Continuation of 'Britain's greatness is the stake in the political experiment, the outcome of which I the world today watches for with the deepest of interest. FIND ANCIENT GUNS. AT CHURCHILL, MAN. A far cry from the modern artillery pieces presently undergoing trials at Fort Churchill is the above cannon which stands in front of the Hudson's Bay Post at Churchill, Man. Originally intehded for use in the defence of York Factory, which lies about 150 miles southeast of Churchill, the gun was later brought to the new port. Other guns have been discovered in the muskeg near Fort Churchill including one of Danish origin. It is believed that these guns may have been used in the fighting around the old forts when the French were battling the Hudson's Bay Co. for control in that area about the beginning of the 18th century. On a recent visit to the army base at Churchill the group shown above took a keen Interest in the ancient gun. They are, left to right, Brig. E. C. Colville. U.K.; Brig. G. P. Morrison, Ottawa; MaJ, Fishbourne; Lleut.-Col. D. C. Cameron, commandant. Fort Churchill; and Col. 3. S. Rose, of Ottawa. fCDD Radio Dial I T I l 1240 Kilocycles (Subject1 to change) .

Home-of-the-Month selections have been single family dwellings providing interesting ideas for Canadians Intending to build their own homes with N.H.A. or piivale financing. Owing to several requests for suggestions for multiple accommodation In the rental field, a four-family dwelling; of a type common in Montreal and district has been chosen for this month. Adaptable to duplex or row housing, it Is suitable for construction In other parts of the country. Working drawings and cost estimates for a dwelling of this type should be obtained from a local architect Rental housing projects may be financed by property owners or builders under Sectionll of the National Housing Act which provides for loans on a basis of joint participation by Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation and an approved lending institution. All negotiations are conducted through the lending institution selected by the borrower. The living room and bedrooms of each unit in this four-family plan are slightly above minimum size while the kitchen is unusually large for "apartment" accommodation. The exterior balconies provide some space for outdoor living as well as an alternative means of access from each unit to the ground level and the basement. Exterior walls are wood frame with brick veneer on the lower half and stucco on the upper half. Either a Jtat root or a oitch roof - may be U3ed.
