more important, it shows how badly this particular phase of our law needs revision in the light of modern conditions.The ancient restrictions on actions against the Crown were never sensible or equitable, but in former times, when governments confined themselves within a narrow range of functions, they affected comparatively few people.But now, with the state operating all manner of commercial enterprises, these obsolete rules may injure anybody at any time.The Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, for example, has become the largest mortgagee of house property in the Dominion.If a dispute arises between it and any of its thousands of \u201cclients,\u201d why should the aggrieved party not be able to take his case to the regular local courts, just as he would with an ordinary mortgage company?Frcmfcertstein PRESS COMMENTS SAVING AND PROSPERITY The importance of saving to increased production and the national well-being was emphasized in a recent declaration of Fred G.Clark, of the American Economic Foundation, who stated that we get more goods only by getting more tools and that, therefore, the better life in material things comes from more and better tools.But tools cannot come into being without self-denial for saving and this self-denial will * not be practised unless a reward is in prospect.Many of our troubles today flow from the illusion that if the ownership of tools is taken over by the state the results will be beneficial to the majority.If this were true then the tools would produce more and better goods at lower cost under state ownership and management, And if this in turn were true it would be either because under state ownership the workers would devote more energy to the tools or because the supervision of the state would be superior to the planning and supervision of orivate management.The chief reason w\u2019hy neither of these propositions is true is that government operation almost invariably turns into monopoly, and that, under monopoly, individual initiative, competition and efficiency disappear.This is true historically as well as logically.The production of coal in Great Britain is the latest demonstration.To enjoy the highest average well-being we must achieve the greatest production and to achieve the greatest production we must have private ownership of tools and competitive management.AUSTERITY, THY NAME IS NORWAY From London News-'Review Norway is probably the only European country which has more austerity than Britain.Ruled by a Labor Government, it has a super-Cripps in the person of Trade Minister Eric Brofoss, 31-year-old lawyer and former taxation official.A man with a head for figures and a determination of iron, Bro-foss is plugging away relentlesly on Norway's economic reconstruction plan.Bread has only recently come off ration\u2014a concession which Government opponents ascribe to the approaching general elections.Clothes and sweets are still strictly rationed, and so are sugar, fats, cheese and coffee.The milk and egg situation Î is very tight in winter.Norwegians mainly have to I live on fish and potatoes.These difficulties all spring from the war-| time loss of Norway\u2019s merchant fleet\u2014third larg- 1 est in the world.New vessels are now being built in British yards\u2014and import cuts are beginning to wipe out the dollar deficit.But Brofoss still ; has a long way to go, for Norway\u2019s population ' has increased by.300,(H30 since prewar.There were never many really rich people in Norway, and the Government\u2019s strict taxation pol-, icy has further reduced the gap between the \u201cwealthy\u201d and the poor.Brofoss himself, as Minister of Trade, earns j £1,200 a year, pays £360 of it in income tax, and walks to his office.There being no Norwegian word for \u201causterity,\u201d the English expression has been j imported.Norway\u2019s Labor Government has not done j much in the way of nationalization.For one thing, | the railways were always state-owned, while electricity and gas were the property.of the munici-] palities.The state has, however, taken over the ! modern aluminum plant put up by the Germans I during the occupation and is building a great new ironworks at Mo, in the far north.Much of the country's economic effort is used to rebuild the two extreme northern provinces which were totally devastated by the Germans before they left.The Government is trying to reorganize the : fishing industry, which suffers from periodical , slumps.New industries are introduced into areas which have depended exclusively on fishing in the i past.THE STATE COT London Economist The ingenuity of the Ministry of Health passes credulity.There are, apparently, officials who sit like crabs in holes ready to clutch eagerly at .the smallest pretext to issue a circular.The latest excuse for this greed has been provided by a baby of 22 months, who was so unwise as to put has head through the bars of a hospital cot, and dislocate his neck.Notwithstanding that millions of babies have slept in similar cots without mishap; notwithstanding that the hospital authorities are endowed with at least as much common sense as the Ministry of Health, the Minister has advised all hospitals ; to see that the maximum space between bars is not more than 3 hi inches.Where cots do not comply with this standard they are to tie 2-inch twine netting round the bars.Poor hospitals and poor babies.But what a happy time the Ministry will have when the babies ; suck the netting and acquire some new disease.What scope there will be for instructions to sterilize the netting daily and to inject the babies with anti-toxin.How passionately the Minister will be able to appeal to research laboratories to in-i vent a new kind of hole which need not be tied up with string, or a new finger guard which will not get mixed up with the holes.GOVERNMENT IMMUNITY IN THE COURTS One of the greatest causes for dissatisfaction with the Canadian legal system is the obsolete set of laws which restrict the right of a citizen to bring action against the Government or its agencies, a weakness which becomes more and more serious as the state increases its interference in the ordinary business activities of the nation.This immunity was carried to its logical extreme in Calgary where a married couple sued the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, a Crown company, together .vith a construction firm and an insurance rompany, for breach of contract in connection with the non-completion of a house they lad ordered under the National Housing Act.The action was started in the Alberta Supreme Court, but that court has now ruled that it has no jurisdiction, and that since the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation is an igent of the Crown\u201d it can only be sued by the implicated \u201cpetition of right\u201d procedure, ind in the Exchequer Court.This decision is likely to cause the plain-iffs much delay and inconvenience, since the Exchequer Court visits Calgary and other i UNFAIR TO JULY From the Printed Word July gets a poor shake from the poets and the literary gentry in general.Bartlett\u2019s Familiar 1 Quotations mentions it three times, but only one i of these references is laudatory.In comparison, April is favorably noted 28 times and May gets 38 pats on the back.This is unfair.What's the I matter with July?What\u2019s the matter with poets?I What\u2019s the matter with people?July is the best month.The all-around best j month, in Canada anyway.For one thing, it is a i good month for getting no work done.Another ad-j vantage is that you don\u2019t need clothes or much j food, so work is unnecessary.People are away, so ! you don\u2019t have to talk to them or listen to them.There is no question about July\u2019s being the best month.Its only rival, August, is apt to have frost towards the end, except in some favored spots in ; the Dominion.June is out, of course, because of i the mosquitoes; but in spite of them Bartlett has I 14 kindly references.Even March is praised more j often than July.The fault is not July\u2019s, but with the poets and [ everybody.We live in anticipation and don\u2019t appre-| ciate a good thing when we have it.Bartlett lists 58 honorable mentions for Spring and only 16 for Summer.Yet Spring is merely the promise of Sum-j mer.When the promise is fulfilied we lose interest and complain about our clothes sticking to the chair, the poison-ivy Willie got into, the odd way of tourists, the auto traffic, the crowds on the trains, the slice, the three-putted green, the stones on the beach, the umpire\u2019s patent bias\u2014-and how I fast the Summer is going.BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY But he knoweth the way that I take;
