CANADA PRAISED
FREE ENTERPRISE BRITAIN’S DIFFICULTIES RELIANCE ON MONOPOLIES (10 a.m.) MONTREAL, March 25. Praising Canada’s reliance on free competitive enterprise, Mr. Robert Wason chairman of the American National Association of Manufacturers, addressing the Canadian Club, expressed the opinion that the failure of Professor Laski's and Mr. Attlee’s democratic socialism in Britain was not yet complete but was inevitable. It was also inevitable that if Britain and Canada each continued its present economic system the 15,000,000 people in Canada would outproduce the 50,000,000 in Britain, whose economies rested on monopolies. British reliance on a collectivised economy must fail as flitler and Mussolini had failed and as Marshal Stalin must fail. Mr. Wason claimed that Canada's recovery of economic freedom was proceeding faster than the United States because “for the past 14 years we have had the equivalent of a Labour Government."
