Box 119 Phone AD. 0467 January 6 A world in which life keeps getting progressively less simple still looks fondly back to the simple life as one of the extreme blessings attainable by sinful man; and every now and then some one pops up with a reminder that the untutored savage is prob- ably a great deal happier and physically sounder than we are. The latest bit of evidence along this line comes from a San Francisco scientist who has justgot back from a trip along the headwaters of the Amazon. Along those far-off waterways, this gentleman found jungle tribes who share none of the white man’s ways and few of his ills. They go quietly about their business, nothing worries them and nobody hurries them â€"- and they never have cancer, high blood pressure or heart trouble. Many of them liv‘g to a ripe old age and remain hale and hearty to the last. LL -L ___A "A" “D v “as. Which of course, is just another way of proving that we pay for everything we get in this world. We have a great many things that these remote savages lack. and we couldn't very well get along without them, but we pay for them by living hurried, nervous, fearfully complex lives, and the diseases that lay us low are nothing less than by-products of our civilization. But that sort of thing has been said a good many times and if it makes us yearn for the simple life, it does not get us any near- er to it; and, indeed. there is no point whatever in dreaming about going back to the good old days, for the simple reason that they are eternally. beyond our reach. For better or for worse we have got ourselves into a complex, an artificial sort of society which cannot very well be simplified. ,The horSe and buggy days must have had a leisure and a placid contentment that we do not have, but if we abolished our trains, automobiles and airplanes we should all speedily die. The in- numerable complications of the age of machinery may be shor- tening our lives, but we can’t get along without them. We cannot turn the clock back even if we really wanted to. The only possible direction we can travel is forward. And we shall make the kind of progress we need to make only if we stop mooning about the blissful past and start figuring out ways to adjust tms modern \society of ours to the deep. inner needs of the human spirit. It can be done. if we put our minds to it; but it must be done by looking to the future rather than trying to get back the past.

Goods completely produced in Canada range from jet engines to tapered roller bearings, from vinyl sheeting to lace, from two-speed differentials to pyrex bottles, and from ethylene glycol to food extracts. There has been a substantial reduction in the imported content of other articles. For example, one firm has reduced the imported content of a radio from $17 to $1.35, while another firm producing refrigerators has reduced the value of nonACanadian parts from $70 to $36. The tide is being turned, in that many goods formerly imported are now being exported to the United States. These include noiseless typewriters, stainless steel equipment, hollow-ware, arr- etylene black and baby carriages. .
