HILL, ONTARIO a seat in the Canadian Parliament as a Liberal nominee, was elected to represent a western constituency va- cated by the death of her husband in 1941. An ostrich never wins by burying his head in the ound. All he does is get sand in ls eyes. Mrs. Cora Casselman, Canada’s woman delegate t9 the San Franclseo conference and fxrst womgn 30 Wt; What’s ahead is the future, a fu- ture we still have plenty of time to make or break. For six yeafs we have stared straight ahead at the necessity of fighting a hard war and keeping a strict watch on our home front economy. It’s true we can re- lax a little now. But if we think we can blissfully shrug off the shaping of the peace (when we still haven’t finished ALL the war), if we as civilians, for in- stance, think that we can ignore the storm of threatened inflation that would break over us at the least op- portunity, why we’re just fooling ourselves. vive May 8th, 1945 lies behind us.

Freedom in chains cannot sur- What would have happened if, in these moves, he had to ‘haggle and discuss each step with a governmen: board while his unfettered mind was soaring far beyond their ken. This board would be political. It would take into consideration the affect Of this proposal on the prospects of the government. The farmer would pro- test, the horse breeders would be up in arms. Delegation: would wait upon the government. The churches would speak. They would point out that this would take the boys and girls away from Sunday school, the men and women away from church. The instincts of free people are far more likely to be right than the‘ wisest judgments of our self ap- pointed planners. Tum now to another man. Henry Ford planned to build a car. He could have built for the few, 2. lux- urious car. He had broader ideas, he wanted to put the nation on wheels, take it into the country. It was a dream, to the average man an impossible dream. Men Were not earning enough to enable them to buy cars and use them. Ford had a scheme for that too. He. would develop their capacity to produce, and because they would produce more, they would earn more. He was the first to grasp that simple fact. Then this question arises. Would Mr. Atkinson be permitted to attempt the task under a controlled economY? Those in command might say that Toronto had no need of more papers. They might even recognize his abil- ity and offer him a pOSition as gen- eral manager of state publications. If that had happened would his conâ€" tributions to the life of the nation have been as great? Can we afford to chain the energy of a giant, de- prive him of initiative, black-out the dreams which a fervent imagination gives to a man of that type, and then expect his creative value to be as high as it would be under free en- tel-prise? This is a mistaken conception. Great builders, artists, writers, do not cease to build, paint, or write be- cause they stand high on the ladder of fame. They keep on because they love their tasks. The trouble is- that under a controlled economy there can be little freedom. Size becomes a crime, the successful business will .be taken over by the state. Would genius strive so mightily if the goal of success were failure? “Experience in peace has shown that the desire of men who are alâ€" ready albove want to increase their profits by imvestment is not a strong enough motive or sufficiently per- sistent in its action to produce a de- mand for labour which is strong enough or steady enough.†book, “F Societyâ€: In the City of Toronto there is a very able journalist and business man. He directs the destiny of one of its greatest newspapers. I refer to Mr. J. E. Atkinson of the Toronto Daily Star. His picture hangs in my office, for the simple reason that he has constructive capacity, ends I like men who build things, build them high and strong and with ample foun- dations under them, so that they may endure for ages. We need more men of that type, men who live conâ€" structive lives, tireless at the tasks they love so well.
