Keep Him Safe and Bring Him Home Soon Future Employment Depends On Price Control at Present Full employment in the trans ition period from wartime to CANMORE NEWS (Continued from Pa e One) . tilth's shore leave witli h if and children at White tt.v; He i I VIM i hi nts, Day after day you piay that he may soon come safely home to you again. You long for the day . . . you wives and sweethearts, you mothers and dads . . . when you will hear the ring of his joyous laughter again. Every Victory Bond you buy helps him along the road to final victory. Your Victory Bond sends tanks and planes to smash down resistance when he attacks. Your Bond helps cripple the opposing air forces and makes him and his fellow airmen masters of the skies. Your Bond helps to remove the menace of mines and submarines during his lonely vigils on the deep. So you will work towards his home-coming by buying Victory Bonds. This time buy one more bond than in any previous loan. Invest in Victory BUY VICTORY BONDS peacetime production is tied up with the maintenance ot price ceilings, Donald Gordon, Chairman of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, stated at the Canadian Congress of Labour conference last week. For this reason labor' has a special concern .in effective price control. All experience shows that a stable and reasonable price level holds out the best prospect for continuous and high employment at decent wages, Mr. Gordon pointed out. In a serious inflation wages trail behind prices and labor loses out, the Chairman stated. He showed that sensible planning of production and markets Is not possible when business becomes gambling and labor Is struggling to get wages into line. He estimated the labor potential as about 1,000,000-more men after the war than before, and said that to take up the slack caused by decline in war contracts labor and management think in terms of mass markets to provide plenty of jobs at decent wages. To help meet employment needs, prices must be controlled now and during the transition period, the Chairman stated In the reconversion period' prices must be prevented from rising so that the urban worker and the farmer can byy better housing and more consumer goods and services, and so that Canada can get into and hold expanded export markets. If wc can get volume production, Canada will enjoy a high level of employment. And if employment is well maintained I am sure that organized labor will look after the question of wage rates, the Chairman declared. Mr. Gordon emphasized that maintenance of employment after the war, the buying value of dollars in terms of goods and services, are just as important as a high wage. Buy More War Savings Stamps I.

BANFF MEATATERIA Correspondence , Banff. Saturday. To the Editor, Crag Canyon: .Dear Sir: n Your editorials in the last two issues of the Crag Canyon' bitterly denouncing the Conscientious Objectors raise a distinct pertinent question in the minds of your readers, rt Is this: Why have you singled out for attack those boys who have been quite rightly segregated by the government into work camps, allowed only 50c per day, and their hours of liberty strictly curtailed? All this because the religions they adhere to forbids them to join the Active Services. I think the editorials in question would have served a better pur*pose had they -been directed at the yellow-streaked fraternity of so called indispensables that one finds in government offices and places of business throughout the country. England in her desperate hour still exercises tolerance towards those, who bound by religious scruples, have not volunteered to fight. It *s extremely doubtful if she i would show the same leniency towards those who can offer no better motive than that of self protection. Toward the latter group Can ada apparently winks its eye. In controversial subjects such as this it is wise to maintain some sense of balance. I hold no brief, .whatsoever, for the Conscientious Objectors , but I hold in contempt those who could join the services but are protected frorri hatfing to do so and yet in the post-war world cwjl clamor for their voices to be well heard) in the rearranging and re-shaping of a shattered world. Yours sincerely, Mrs John Citizen Canned Grapefruit in glass containers returned to the ration list on October 15.
