And For Reports from Ottawa, naturally unofficial but believed to have a strong foundation of reality, state that the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation is urging the imposition of a $15 license fêe on all television receiving sets as a means of partially offsetting its ever-growing deficit.Such a move would be idiotic and an outrage.The $2.50 fee which was charged for many years for radio licenses was dropped finally because it was unpopular and costly to collect.Without doubt the high antennae needed by most television receivers would ease the task of the inspectors in determining the presence of a TV set in any dwelling.But unless the government network can produce consistently popular and effective programs to justify a direct levy on the viewers, any form of licence fee would be an insult.The suggested fee would be particularly open to criticism in view of the fact that many CBC programs are sponsored What ?by advertising, and because today there is understood to be a move afoot to permit more private television broadcasting stations to establish themselves in the larger cities.The average viewer is entitled to ask the quêstion: Why should the CBC charge a fee when advertisers carry the bulk of the load?A few quality programs have been developed by the CBC and are well worth watching whether broadcast over CBC stations or by relay over private stations.These cultural and entertainment programs are to be commended and form a justifiable phase of activity for the CBC, which it could continue without necessarily operating its own stations.But the cost should be borne by the government \u2014 by the public as a whole, as part of the general cultural development of the country \u2014 not by a nuisance tax, most of which would probably go to the cost of collecting it.Rescues There have been more than a few cases in Canada this summer of inexperienced swimmers attempting to go to the rescue of a drowning person only to end up dying in the water themselves.While the bravery and selflessness of such attempts may at first seem admirable the fact remains that such action only complicates the task facing the subsequent rescuer who is capable of handling the job.In too many cases he finds that he Wheat Rapidly Replacing Rice In Oriental Diets JACOBY On Bridge WEST FAIS TO SHOW WEAKNESS \"Who was responsible for the bad result in the accompanying hand?\u201d asks a Texas correspondent.\u2018\u2018As East and West, we'd have been down only two at five spades, for a loss of only 300 points.At five diamonds doubled and made, the opponents scored 250 points plu* the rubber bonus.Who did the wrong thing?\u201d West was responsible for the poor result that the partnership achieved on this hand.West did not fully indicate the weakness of his hand by passing at his first turn.There was no way for East to know whether or not West had a worthless hand.East had good defensive strength\u2014two aces, and the slight chance of a second spade trick.He could be sure of defeating five diamonds ¦ if West came up with any defensive strength at all.East was therefore justified in doubling five diamonds.The double instructed West to leave well enough alone if he had some reasonable prospect of taking one defensive trick.If West had that much, there was no use in taking a loss at five spades when they could collect a profit against five diamonds.BFt.0* NORMAL YCcIttfOfftotf fSeaina.^ v P.\t\u2022 A&OVE M - J /*- Wf/fHtpea \u2022 normal *.v* below'\" NORMAL^ 'ane M UCH '/orosrfoS, Owa/rar 'sart^frasrascQ ABOVE : HEAR NORMAL -x BE LOW k NORMAL BELOW NORMAL NORMAL WEST\tNORTH\t2$ *9 VKQ98 6 4 + A 10 9 6 + Q10 EAST (D) *Q872\tAAK10 64\t ¥752\t¥ J 10 ?4\t?J + 96 54 2\t+AJ873\t East\tSOUTH + J53 ¥ A3 ?KQ 8 7 5 3 2 *K North-South vul.South West North 1-+\t1 ¥\tPass 2 ¥ 2 +\t3 ?\t3+\t4?4 A\t5 ?\tPass Pass Double\tPass Pass Pass Opening lead\u2014* 2\t facJksvny/ffe y\ti.f y\tThe Eastern Townships lies in a small Eastern Canada pocket that is slated for \"nu'ch above norma!\u201d T GS, IT S I TUG \"\" temperatures during the next month.Temperatures east from Saskatchewan are rated in the above normal class, while the temperate west coast can expect much below normal readings.(See Editorial),\t(CP) BYGONE DAYS Screen Actor Answer to Previous Puzzle Take Skill has two persons requiring help and that he can only handle one.Thus he must decide which to rescue and which to abandon, the favor often falling upon the latecomer to the water who complicated the situation with the original victim being left to his own fate.The inexperienced swimmer can better serve the interests of everyone concerned, himself included, by immediately seeking experienced assistance rather than by attempting feats beyond his skill and capacity.West knew that he didn\u2019t begin to have the defensive strength that- could be expected of him.It was barely possible, to ! be sure, that East had three sure defensive tricks, but this was too much to hope for.In short.West should have run out of the double of five diamonds.He could feel reasonably sure that the penalty at five spades would be rather small, ; and that loss would be a sound insurance policy against a big loss if South were permitted to play the hand at five spades doubled.CARD SENSE Q\u2014With neither side vulnerable, the bidding has been: North East South West 1 Heart 2 Clubs ?You, South hold: Spades K-Q-J-5-3, Hearts 8-3.Diamonds 8-6-4, Clubs K-9-5.What do you do?A\u2014Pass.It goes against the grain to pass nine points In high cards, hut a free response of two spades might force partner up to three hearts with a minimum opening bid.It is safe to pass, for North will act if he has bet-; ter than a minimum bid.TODAY\u2019S QUESTION The bidding is the same as in the question just answered.You, South, hold: Spades A-K-Q-5-3.Hearts 8-6-4, Diamonds K-9-5, Clubs 8-3.What do you do?Answer Tomorrow TWENTY YEARS AGO From the Record of August 23, 1935.Riding an avalanche of votes even greater than the sweep of the United Farmers of Alberta in 1921, the Alberta Social Credit League today achieved a clear majority in the Alberta Provincial elec tion and threatened to sweep the field almost completely.Comparative calm followed the decision of the British Government on policy in the Ethiopian crisis, when it became apparent that only if all other efforts fail will the League of Nations be asked to consider sanctions against an aggressor.Repairs to the concrete of the Frontenac street dam are at present underway by a group of city workmen.Blasting operations are being carried out in connection with the repair work, which is to cost between $500 and $600.The tailrace is also being cleaned to ease the flow of water from the machines.TEN YEARS AGO From the Record of August 23, 1945.Lt.-Col.M.W.McA\u2019NuIty, of Sherbrooke, officer commanding the repatriation liaison group which will facilitate repatriation of Canadian pris-oners-of-war liberated in the Pacific, left Ottawa yesterday for the West Coast, en route to Manila.The surrender document formally ending the war with Japan will be signed on Tokyo Bay Friday, August 31, aboard the battleship Missouri which only a month ago was bombarding the Japanese homeland with 16-inch shells.Nearly 10,000,000 persons, a sixth of the population of Japan\u2019s home islands were killed, wounded, or made homeless \"as a result of enemy air raids during the course of the war in Greater East Asia,\u201d the Tokyo Radio said today in a broadcast recorded by the Associated Press.ACROSS 1 Screen actor, Macdonald 6 He appears in motion picture \u2014\u2014 11\tHis fans \u2014\u2014\u2022 him 12\tCity in New York DOWN 1\tHe does his work before a - 2\tExperts 3\tDiminutive of Roland 4\tSilkworm 3 Periods of time 6 Golf shout B\tA\tT\t\tC\tO\tP\tE\t\tC\t3\t1\tT A\tL\tEE\t\tO\tM\tA\tR\t\t\tU\te\tE C3\tE=\tM\t\tM\t1\t\t3\tP\tE\tl~\t\t3 \tB\tP\tT\tE=\tT*\tS\t\tO\tR\tL-\tE\t \t\tEs\tH\t\t\tEE\tT*\tE\t\t\t\t H\tE\tR\t&\t\tA\tP\tl\tT\t\tH\tA\t6 EE\tR\tA\te\tE\tR\t\tP*\tl\tR\tE\tC\tT M\tO\tT\t£E\tt\t'3\t\tE\tC\tA\tR\tT\tEL -i3\ts\tEL\t\tD\tO\t NIGHT LAVARIERE\u2019S!

today\u2019s children grow up and marry there will be a lot more people\u2014millions more in fact\u2014with hundreds of thousands of new homes to accommodate them.More people will be needed to supply the goods and services they require.This will create many more jobs bringing more purchasing power to more people.The use of electricity has nearly doubled in the past ten years.By the time our young couple move into their first home, the nation\u2019s power requirements will again have doubled.This country, with the exception of Norway, is the world\u2019s largest per capita user of electricity.Canadian imagination and enterprise that have done so much in the past will still further develop our natural resources, and find new ways to improve our manufacturing, transportation and communication facilities.Far-sighted men in power companies from coast to coast are constantly planning to meet the ever-growing demand for electricity.Today, just as it has for over 60 years, Canadian General Electric is continuing the steady expansion of its engineering and manufacturing facilities .helping to supply the vast amount of equipment needed for our increasing power requirements and providing new and improved products to put it to use in industry and the home.wm Ncn\u2019 appliances suck as the wall refrigerater-freezer, the built-in range, and the combination washer-dryer will shortly be on the market.They exemplify the constant progress taking place in the development of new and improved General Electric products for the generation, distribution and use of electric power.Tbogress fs Our Most- Important T^oduct CANADIAN GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY LIMITED I SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD, TUESDAY.AUGUST 23, 19W Seven ^ \u2022 V sïwHSAiN ABERDEEN ANGUS CHAMPIONS
