Fire Is always serious, but the
president points out that now. every
loss of life, every interference with
production, every loss of critical
materials delays victory He empha-
sizes that the special fire preven-
tion week set a side affords an op-
portunity to impress all the peo-
ple with the urgency of protecting
resources of any and all kinds
against destruction
re-
hrfrpee Of the navy officials to give details of the
fight as an effort to keep the enemy guessing, but
there isn’t much point in withholding details in this
country that are being published in England and
being cabled to this country in advance of official
reports. Perhaps the British have a smoother-work-
ing press arrangement than the Americans have
• been able to perfect, or it may be that the U. 8.
navy affldala are a little reluctant to raise false
hopes in this country that may be dashed to pieces
by the fortunes of war. In either case, there should
be some co-ordination between the news releases so
that American newspapers would be able to report
successes of American troops to American citizens

Fire losses In relation to war
effort is, of course, the first con-
sideration, but in addition there
comes up of importance to proper-
ty owners ahe prospect of addition-
al insurance costs when losses are
heavy. Denton's fire loss, bringing
the matter close to home, has been
unusually heavy this year, and
there is every prospect of a high-
er insurance premium here unless
the kgises are held to the very min-
imum for the remainder of this
year.

What time is left from the cigarette broadcast and
the Anny shows are spent with his cows. Roas is a
farmer at heart, he swears, and pines for the alfalfa
and the com. All available time is spent on his
country place.
the Dominion had to suspend the collection of In-
come taxes by the provinces and municipalities. TTils
had to be done for the salvation of the taxpayers—
for al one time before the suspension order was put
into effect, Montreal people who made $200,000 a
year actually were called on for more than $200,000
a year in taxes. In return, the Dominion was forced
to pay the local government a subsidy, or assume
their debts.
Canada's taxes today are supposedly the highest
in the world.
Take price control. There are far fewer Canadian
exemptions to price legislation than In America But
there Is a provision by which wage earners are paid
a bonus If the cost of living goes above a certain fix-
ed base. It is paid as a percentage of $25 weekly, which
was set up as a minimum* family budget base If the
cost of living goes up 10 per cent, all workers get $2.50
a week increase, regardless of what their salaries
may be
So effective has the Canadian price control been
that cost of living has advanced only 25 per cent
since the bonus law went into effect last October
Take manpower Canada now has gone beyond
the equivalent of full employment. Its 30,000 unem-
ployed are all definitely determined unemployables.
Five million of its population of 11,000,000 population
are employed. Three of those five million are in.the
war effort or essential Industries. From now on the
problem Is to get more of the two million shifted
from the non-essential Industries
To that end. unless the government gives Its ap-
proval, no one can be fired, no one can quit his job.
no one can change his job. no one can take a job in
a non-essential industry. And no one can get or give
an increase in wages.

OBSCENE MAGAZINES BANNED
The excitement and generally disrupted routine
of individuals during war time tend to cause a let-
down in public morals that is reflected In jokes, in
stories and pictures carried in certain publications
and in actions of people. About the only one of
there three groups that can be controlled easily are
publications which cater to salacious and immature
minds.

that one one contract for 400,000

made delivery 22 days ahead of
schedule, with a turnback of a
single cot—a 00004 rejection per-

For this kind of work the com-
pany was awarded a nine foot long
pennant with a swallow tail, four
feet, 6 Inches wide at the mast-
head with a white "E” on a yellow
wreath of oak and laurel leaves on
a vertically-divided blue and red
background. White letters eight
inches high spell "Army” on the
red background and “Navy" on the

have about a 24-hour edge on American newspa-
per* in the announcement of good tidings. The re-

bats out his own broadcasts, then, when he'8 off the

The guy simply hates to stop singing I saw this
happen at a benefit broadcast for the Father Duffy
Canteen, and when It was over Lanny cried, "Okay,
now were going to have some real fun"—and he led
the mob in mas® renditions of "Deep in the Heart
of Texas" and "Jingle Jangle Jingle."
Later I asked him about it, and he said. "I’m not
happy when the going gets stuffy. I like it informal,

TEACHING THE PEDESTRIAN
Logical enforcement of traffic laws in congested
urban areas has always demanded that pedestrians
be made amenable to common sense rules, but few
cities have ever done so much as give the matter a
try. There have been sporadic and spasmodic cam-
paign* to regulate Jaywalkers, but Detroit probably de-
serves credit for launching the first sywtematic cam-
paign to regulate pedestrians Between June 15. when
enforcement of the jaywalking ordinance began, and
July 31, Detroit police Issued 1964 tickets to persons
walking in an unsafe and Illegal fashion Within the
last few day* warrants have been issued for 335 per-
sons who failed to present their Jaywalking ticket*
in traffic and ordinance court* First offenders against
the pedestrian traffic ordinance are given an inter-
esting option. They may go before the traffic court
referee Instead of paying fine*. There they attend
classes and receive instructions on how to cross
streets safely. The clisses are conducted by a psy-
chiatric clinic. Detroit evidently thinks Jaywalkers
are 6$ least partly crazy; that is to say, even if it
assumes some measure of mental deficiency for mo-
torists who violate safety, regulations. We hesitate
to express an opinion in a field where only experts
know their way about, but Detroit clearly has <om<
talking points on tta side of the argument. Ftor the
