Call In The Experts.

Sir Arthoir Currie, addressing the Citizens’ Research Institute of Canada,

siated that hundreds of millions of dollars in expenditure had been wasted be-
cause the Government during war time had refused to heed the advice of ex-
perts. He cited the Ross rifle, the Oliver equipment, the harness, and the
fact that 100,000 men lad been enlisted who were no good to the armies in the

field. He intimated thac these 100,000 men had each cost the country $1,500,
and some of them ave still costing the country money, being patients ~in
hospital.

Commenting on these statements, the Financial Post declares that what js
true of war times is equally true of peace times, that the los: through in-
efficiency in the conduct of our public affairs are a very considerable factor
in the size of the tax burdens which the business Institutions and ci
generally have to bear It points out, however, that during the Great W
crisis the seriousness of the mistakes being’ made was realized and dras
steps taken—it was a case of efliciency or defeat,

Canadians will do well to realize that it is sill a case of efficiency or de-
feat. The financier, manufacturer, merchant or farmer who has not organ-
on an efficient basis, and who neglects to avail himself of the
advice of experts, may continue to struggle along, but he will achieve no out-
standing success, while the chances are that he Will go down in defeat; - The
man who despises the advice of others who have made themselves expérts in
@uy particular branch of business does not thereby indeyote bigness nor
sirength; on the contrary he is revealed as lacking in one of the primary
tings that make for success.

One of Canada's weaknesses nationally is the failure of our Governments
to seek the vice of experts and profit by- their knowledge and experience
in dealing with national questions and problems of development. With our
great wealth of natural resources, there*has been a lack of constructive expert
Political considerations rather than sound
economics have all too frequently dictated the policy pursued, and, while de-
feat has not always followed, we-are paying a fearful price in taxation to
cover the cost of blunders made. i

Membership in the Parliament of Canada is not as representative of the
yaried interests and industries of the Dominion it should be. There are
t.r Many lawyers and not nearly enough enginee scientists, educationists, |
dcctors, chemists and experienced business men. With a seattering of other |
professions and occupatio: membership of the House of Commons may be

and when that is done to r rd the objective aimed at
as reached and a complete cure for ills in the body politic achieved.

Canada could get along with considerably less legislation, and a great
deal more sound, expert administration. The main trouble today is in ad-
ministration, or rather the lack of it along expert lines. The main business
of a lawyer is to get people out of trouble after they haye got into it, but the
business and training of an engineer is to exercise foresight and take pre-
cautions guarding against the occurrence of trouble.

In the later years of the war Governments the world over were only too
glad to secure the services of experts in every occupation. Red tape, pre-
cedents, theorists, went into the discard, and men of knowledge and experi-
ence came to the front. Action, the rapid solution of problems, was requir-
ed, and the practical men of action were the ones finally entrusted with the
job.

A survey of the Caadian situation today gives emphasis to the positive
declaration of the Financial Post that there is just"as much need for men of
ability and experience in the Government now as there was in the days when
German guns were barking their way to Paris and the channel ports.

Governments are not wholly fo blame because there ave not more of
these men engaged in the public service. Such men were prepared to sacri-
flee their all during the war, but they cannot be expected to continue the
sacrifice throughout their lives. So the people of Canada must face the
question discussed in last week’s article. That Is, they must be prepared
lo pay these experts salaries commensurate to what thelr abilities and know-
ledge command In the world of private business. Having secured such men,
then the Government should leave them unhampered by partizan considerations,
free to carry out their policies as their expert knowledge and experience dic-
tates. Then, and then only, will Canada begin to reap the full benefit in
results for the generous expenditures the country is making on development
programmes.
