It notes a 1910 house cost 1600 dollars and a car 156 dollars, while 1948 cars averaged 1714 dollars with 85 dollar tax and would cost 60 600 if built with 1910 tools. The piece also sketches evolving car features and tooling.

The Same Old Buck Passing Editorial
A Winnipeg Tribune editorial blasts Manitoba pension proposals by Hon. Ivan Schultz as mean.

It notes education funding debates and ends with a note about a window washer.
