overseas empire thati Fifteen per formerly understood cent of all the wheat milled and consumed In Great Britain Is to be home grown Seventy per cent of the nation's supply will be purchased within the empire and this largely means Canada and Australia and the remaining 15 per cent will be secured from outside sources The belief In Ottawa Is that Canada will supply about 80 per cent of the dominion's quota or 55 per cent of the wheat supply of Great Britain If these percentages turn out to be corect It will be freely acknowledged that the dominions are to be treated In all former discusgenerously sions the dominions’ share was not placed above 55 per cent of the total required Now it Is considered that under the quota system Canada will have an assured market in Great Britain for 130000000 bushels of wheat Thia la far below the total Canadian export but It will be of Immense advantage to hava a definite market for this large quantity Un doubtedly such an arrangement would have a stabilizing effect on the Canadian wheat growing Industry and on Canadian wheat price Can' ada would enter into direct competition with other countries In the disposal of tha remainder of her crop but even here would be only In the position of today with regard to her entire crop export A British wheat quota would not mean millennium for Canadian wheat producers but undoubtedly it would make their marketing problem less difficult than it is now British millers who are opposed to the quota plan hava suggested the alternative of a tariff of four shillings a quarter (eight bushels) on foreign wheat and two shillings on empire grown wheat but the British government prefers the quota ays tern because it is anxious to avoid Under a direct tax on foodstuffs that system no perceptible advance in the price of domestic bread Is ex pec ted for even If the British farm-er- i are guaranteed a slight advance over the prevailing world price the small proportion of the total aupply provided by them will militate against any specific influence on bread prices -- Salt Lake and Utah with all the Christian world to reflect pause something of the Infinite goodness that Is enrapt In Christianity In the spirit of Christmas selfishness Is dissipated by the universal desire to render cheer and comfort to less fortunate neighbors Our trials and tribulations are forgotten as we set out on pur missions of kindly human service We are more concerned with what we may do for others than Jtvhat we can gain for ourselves The world would be a better place in which to live If the virtues of the Christmastide could endure down through the years If we could grasp and hold our spiritual blessings the reverses of & material world and the adversities of gainful pursuits would be easier to bear The depression as we have come to term the period o t struggle and travail that has haunted our Efforts for gainful advantage would lose most of Its terrors If the cooperation which Is evident at Christmas time could gain pally expression Christmas this year found Salt Lake more distressed than fever before More families were In want than In normal times Santa Claus the ancient and modern symbol of bounteous giving In behalf of little children was sorely pressed for resources to meet the trustful enthusiastic entreaties of his youthful wards parents viewed the prospect of Christmas with misas giving empty stockings loomed as the bitter regret of an world Imperfect The spirit of Christmas spared that sacrifice In spite of restrictions the heart of Salt Lake opened Itself in generous response to a seasonal need Thousands of Salt Lake people enrolled in the Subs for Santa movement sponsored by The Balt Lake Tribune and the Salt Lake lodge of Elks and shared their blessings with those less fortunate than themselves Santa Claus lives and 3750 Salt Lake children who otherwise might have been denied the Joy and happiness of the annual visit know It Generous Salt Lake people came from every walk of life to help in the great work of preserving the illusion of Santa Claus for children too young to know the vicissitudes that await them in earthly endeavor Most of them returned with food and clothing for families sorely distressed by the reverses of the times Charity organizations and kindly citizens gave their utmost to the movement and the Joy of it all Is to be found in the realization that on this Christmas day Santa Claus came to all the good children of Salt Lake be they rich or be they poor Every worthy case had generous attention Salt Lake could ask for no more self satisfying Christmas What has been done for those in distress has made the city richer The good people who participated in this work must feel better for what they have shared on this blessed Christmas morn for they not only know that they have helped in a most worthy enterprise but that they have blessings of their own Which must and will add to their Christmas cheer NCE more
