MARKET MUST BE RESTORED FOR WESTERN WHEAT Ottawa. L see only one possibly solution to make living tolerable on the prairies, Dr. Jacob Viner, Uni- versity of Chicago economist, told the Dominion-provincial relations com- mission, e must be a attempt by Canada to biast a plac for wheat in the markets of th world by tariff concessions und trade agresments. Failing that, continued the pes- simistie professor, the population of western Canada will-be destroyed by increasing malnutrition, vanishing ric * income and failing hope. The reat problem is how can Canada restore rkets for prairie wheat? There s no other reasonable prospect for the continued support of 2,500,000 of prairie population unless wheat is made respectable again or the mar- kets of the world. Professor Viner s entire argument was devoted to the thesis that the protective not the revenue-produe jing sections of the tariff but th: prohibitory protective tariffs, imp: an extra burden of 47,000,000 h year on the prairie proyinees in in- creased living cost. Simultancously, self-sufficient policies of other ns tions, coupled with retaliatory tariff: have destroyed prairie dwellers pos: sibility of existence. Professor Viner, born in Canada and 2 graduate of McGill University, said he felt this was a very im- portant issue for Canada. Thougit he had been away for several years he was still deeply interested in the nation's problems. Y can see only one possible solti- tion for the prairies, tolerable for cae and reasonable for Canada as a whole. That is, a serious attempt to blast a place for Canadian wheat in world negotiations. the destruction of wheat markets by In another part of Lille seyeral) hundred strikers overturned a brew- ery truck and fought with mobile guards until they were dispersed, At Marseille 10 persovs were ar- rested for attacking police.

At Dieppe police inspector was injured by dockworkers. Bleyen workers at Grenoble were arrested for violence against the police. Organized jabor of France had sought to tie up the country for one day in protest against the Daladier government's economic program, It was the first big challenge to the Daladier regime. Daladier went ahead by ordering for France a three-year state of economic mobilization, and turned to a campaign for parliamentary ap- proval of his decrees imposing new taxes and suspending the 40-hour week labor's chief target in the gen- eral strike call. Eeonemic mobilization was de- creed in the national, interest, the government said in explanation of its 1939 budget demands, During the whole (three-year plan), the note said, the French must understand they are in a state of economic mobilization. * Daladier broadcast his thanks to workers for disregarding the general strike order. He said Noy. 30 would remain an historic date in French history be- cause it was marked by a renewal of respect for law and respect for order throughout the nation, He declared the general strike order had met total defeat and emphasized his government would continue its efforts to improve the national position domestically as well as. internationally. No Propejandl Bureau British Government Has No Intention Of Establishing One London. The government has no intention of establishing a propa- ganda department or controlling news, Prime Minister Chamberlain told the House of Commons, Arthur Henderson, Labor, asked whether in view of anti-British propaganda efforts of some countries the govern- ment would not consider installing a special press and propaganda de- partment, es suf of representations of agencies from coast to coast regarding per- sons unable to qualify for relief un- der loval regulations. Reports before the council indicate that not only is the problem assum- ing very serious aspects in practic- ally all parts of the country but that in several centres the problem of the of comparably critical proportions, a statement said. Tentative plans were outlined for a possible national conference under the council's auspices in Ottawa dur- ing 1939 as soon as posgible after the Dominion-provincial relations is made public, Demanded Release Of Ships Greek Vessels Held By Insurgents Carried Wheat For Britain London. The British government demanded the immediate release of two Greek ships seized by Spanish insurgent forees Nov. 23 and 26, Richard Butler, under-secretary for foreign affairs, announced in the House of Commons. The ships were carrying cargoes of wheat purchased by the British gov- ernment in Roumania. They were taken to Palma Bay, Mallorca, Mr. Butler said, and instructions were that he demand immediate release of the ships. Award Was Refused Cincinnati F. W.

On its strictly economic as- pects I do not see how the federal government can meet the problem by subsidies and the like, for there is no unlimited wealth in Canada to pro- vide such revenue.
