CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursdays July 20, 1961 CASTLEGAR NEWS Hundred and Forty-Seven CANADA MONTH The forerunner. issue of a new Can- adian newsmagazine made its debut this month. : The .magazine—called Canada Month —will start regular publication in October of. this yéar., The forerunner issue was the dimedstons of Saturday Night, Time - and Newsweek and had 40 pages. Adver- tising was low but content was of a high calibre. In a lead editorial. the magazine said it “rejects” the patronage of a Canadian ' uy .. The Social Credit Party of Canada held a national convention and chose a Jeader. This is important news to the members of the party, as well as to those people in Canada interested in politics. But perhaps ‘the ‘most ‘thought- -pro- voking aspect of the entire convention is the announced* crusade to put monetary reform-ideas into action in the federal field that is'if-Social ‘Credit is elected to Ottawa, and most erperts say Phat this is an im- - possibility. ‘A New Magazine periodical press suggested by the O'Leary Royal.’ Commission ‘on .

Has People Thinking poverty, shortages, and lack of goods and material. These create many and varied hardships on the people living ‘in these countries. Then on the other hand we have countries. like Canada and the. United States. Here there .is.an abundance of everything . .-. . natural resources, land and -an, unlimited potential production of ‘both foods as, well as material goods.

Premier Manning of Alberta. Although it is‘ not a new ap- proach, it is one that does provoke serious consideration. Premier Manning - stated: “The purpose and objective of this crusade is to end once and for all the most absurd paradox of our, day — the’ para- dox of insecurity in the midst of material abundance, , recessions ‘in’ the - midst of potential prosperity, and pyramiding debt in the midst of almost limitless wealth.” Whether the Social. Credit party can or cannot put. this. objective into practice, we: ly cannot. f But - the statement: does touch one of the most ironic aspects of our present times. There is no doubt that what Premier Manning "says is true.

There are, naturally, two trends of thought on the subject. Many: contend that Deraons : with special qualifications, Heavenbound Every mortal envisions.a heaven, Where trouble and pain is unkown, And a merciful, loving God ruleth From a holy: celestial throne. Our thoughts, ever longing, soar upward," While our heads, in reverence, bow down, But our deeds, which spring forth from our wishes, Stay immoblie, unyielding, self-bound. Man can’t reach the top of the ladder Without first setting foot on each rung; Nor can join in the heavenly. choir, While his song on this earth ‘is ‘which leads toa lower standard of living. We are not saying that the: Social Credit Party has the answer, to this pro- blem. But the. situation is one that think- ing people must wonder about. — Osoyoos - Times Values ; thing’ anes are howling : to the tops of the tall fir trees, ~ But why should camp sites in provincial parks be entirely ‘free? ‘True, the taxes’ developed them, but thean‘ taking. over the BO, Electric, the!

Mr. Coyne, in all probability a most able man, has his own theories on what is good or not good for the country from a financial point of view. It may. well be that he is better informed and has good reason for decrying the policies of the present Minister of Finance. But :this is not ‘the issue at stake.
