Gregg,‘ Minis- ter of Labour, revealed this week that there had been an increase of more than 22,000 trade union members during the year 1950.

Canadian manufactnrers in deciding on the location of a new plant have many problems to consider. In order to help them arrive at a‘ decision many municipalâ€" ities offer the serwces of an industrial committee composed of members from the local council. Naturally the first duty of any such committee is to draw attention to the ad- vantages offefed by their own particular area, and in persuading manufacturers that it is a good place to establish a new plant. How persuasive they have been will reflect in the ever growing prosperity of the community, For any locality the introduction Of a new industry is a very important and necessary acquisition. One of the main sources of income for any municipali‘ly is from its industries. Plants also offer job A» new version of the Bible is about to be printed and the announcement that the first printing will be 1,000,000 vplumes reminds us that the Book is still the world’s best seller. No book-of-the-month club has been needed to drum up subscrib- ers. As fast as Bibles are printed people come forward to buy them. The new printing will be the Revised Standard Version. It will attempt to combine the beauty of the King James Version with the accuracy of the Ameri- can Standard Version of 1901. There will be the usual argument as to whether the translators have achieved their design. he new work, for example, revises “fain ave filled his belly with the husks that FOR TOUGH CONDITIONS 0 . .

Telephone, Richmond Hill 9 New Industry OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT Approximately 85 per cent of union members belong to unions affiliated with one or other of the three larger central labour bodies in Canada. The affiliated membership of the Trades and Labour Congress of Canada has increased approx‘ imately 2.5 per cent since December 1949. This increase was mainly in international unions affiliated with both the TLC and the American Federation of Labour and in “federal unions of the 'I’LC._.Mer_'r-1ber§hip opportunities to the local residents and a chance for steady employment. For ev- ery person on their plant payroll, several other people â€" merchants, teachers and so on are supportedfiin turn. In order to fully understand what a new plant means to a community one needs only to consider a report made by the Industrial Bureau of an American municipality. As a result of their research the bureau estimated that a new indus- ty employing 150 men requires and sup- gorts an average of 393 occupied homes; 3 retail stores; half million dollars in re- tail sales, 6,600 acres of additional farm produce; 24 additional professional men, 22 school rooms and 18 teachers, 320 cars (and services for them), 21/2 million dol- lars in additional taxable valuation. It would do us all well to bear these figures in mind. the swine did eat; and no man gave him anything. Is “pods” better than “husks” here? Is “no one gave him anything” as beauti- ful as “no man gave unto him”? We think not; but perhaps another generation, brought up on the phrases of the new ver- sion, will not cling so tenaciously to the old as we tend to do, and will see beauty in the familiar, as we do now. No one ever settles these arguments about new translations of the Bible. It is not important that anyone should. What is important, and it is demonstrated for us every year as figures are published show- ing its distribution, that the Bible is indes- tructible. It is the best best seller of all time.
