COMMISSIONERS

first, operations.

Since the commission began meeting it had received literally thousands of applications for posi- tions, said Col. Harrington. All these were being turned over to the civil service commission which will make all appointments by its usual methods of examination.

Oine of the first tasks of the commission will be to make a sur- vey of all unemployment in Canada. ‘This was done to a certain extent in the 1981 census but the oom- mlssionerb survey will be the first national study of unemployment made indepen‘ ‘ly of the collec- tion of other information.

Employment was one form of social insurance, said. Col. Harring- ton, and was an illustration of the growing tendency on the part of Governments to protect e from the fear of poverty and d - wasalsc authorized to look into health in- surance but that could come after the employment insurance system was placed in operation.

SCHEME OUTLINE!)

‘The scheme contemplated the creation of a fund by compulsory contributions from which benefits would be paid to those who became unemployed after making the re- quisite number of contributions. The worker contributed 2-5 of the fund. the employer 2-5 and the

___(Continued from Page 1)

OITAWA, Aug. ii-Follcwlng is the text in part of the address by Mackenzie King cve: a.~natlonsl hookup of the Canadian Radio Commission.

"The Liberal Party." Mr. King said. "Does not stand before the electorate in this campaign wlthan armful of promises, nor upon u platform of assurance. constructed expremly for the purpose of a gen- eral election."

Its platform was drafted by the National Liberal Federation and approved by Liberal members and Senators-not like the one-man shows staged by Premier RB. Ben- nett and Hon. H. H. Stevens. With iv-gurc? to the latter Mr. King said that for days “the Cmliiily was kept in a state of suspense as Mr. Stevens. with scissors and paste in hand. was kept busy going through all the political programs and platforms he could collect, piecing them together. with as many ex- cerpts from the report of the price spreads commission, and as munv platitudes of his own, as could be. included in the document that would not be too long for public- atlon." A political platform to be transformed into legislation must be more than promises and profes- sions. It must bear the approval of a partyuas a. whole. * ‘ The Liberal party's platform was issued in Feb, 1933. two and a half years ago. Mr. King continued. It was not all-conclusive, but “viewed as a whole. you will find. I think. that the policies set forth consti- tute a. sound basis for the recon- struction of the national life of our Dominion." .

As a guarantee the policies would be carried out. Mr. King cited how the platform had been approved by the party as a‘ whole. It had been placed before the public at suc- ceeding by-electlons and apparent- 1y approved because Liberal candl- ‘ dates headed the polls. In oddi- tion, Liberals had swep. Conserva- tive governments from power in province after province.

In the 1930 election. Mr. King

continued, Premier Bennett “made promises galore and was more than emphatic about every one of them. He would end unemployment. He would abolish _doles. He would blast his way into the markets of the world. Has he accomplished any of these things?" asked the Liberal- leader. "If he has not. he certainly cannot argue that he has not had sufficient majority behind himdn the Commons and has not had a majority in the Senate which has steadily increased. His failure is obviously due to the fact that his policies were at fault. and that no government on earth could have carried out the promises he made." hfcre power by a political leader was no guarantee his promises would be kept. Mr. King continued. A party must be behind the prom- lses and policies if they were to be implemented. He claimed Premier Bennett himself drafted the Con- servatlve Party's policies, made the promises on his own behalf and it was no wonder his followers did not agree with him. Stalin, Mussolini and Hitler were dictaixirs. "But do we want that sort of thing in Canada? And will it. succeed in this country? Never forget. that in Italy. in Germany. in- Russia. it has been brought about in the name of social reform but at the price of political frea- dom. It means," said Mr. King. "The end of self-government, of democratic government. of govern- ment by Parliament, of government by a cabinet. I think that, per- hops. in Oanadanwe already have had enough of one-man govern- merit."

Makes Charge On the contrary. it was the Lib- eral pcrityj as a whole that con- structed its plaltfzrm. Mr. King said. When Premier Bennett en- unciated his "New Deal" over the radio last January, his own cab- lnet-oolleagues did not know what he was going to say. let alone his ‘ “ a in the House. charged the Liberal leader. "Is it any wonder that. .whcn it came to the enactment of the mea- sures that were forecast with such gisto over the radio, where there was no opportunity vqfdparty dis- cussion or dissension, the validity of some of thcm was at once ques- tioned. not by the members of the Opposition alone. but by members of the Government, itself?" asked Mr. King. Is it any wonder that important pravislons in govern- ment measures. which passed the House of Commons, were rejected in the Senate. and with no one by the Government's own following more active in the eliminating pro- cess than Mr. Melghen. the leader of the Senate, himself a member of the Government and a former leader of the Conservative party? Is it any wonder that the whole illwram. so far as contributing nught to an immediate solution of the pressing problem of unemploy- ment, was. from the beginning, and has since been shown to be. amare make-believe chair " Liberals Rclolflc

The Canadian electoratc. Mr King laid. would find the Idbcrsl party solidly behind its platform. It was a united party and "a happy party cs well, rejoicing that, in the face of the most sum and pro- longed economic crisis our country

deal with the present emergency conditions i. .,,‘ a. representative national commission, which would co-opcrate with the provinces and municipalities in the administra- tion of unemployment relief and in an ndcavor to provide work for the unemployed." "

“As permanent measures the Lib- eral party is pledged to introduce policies which will serve to provide employment by reviving industry and trade; and to introduce n. na- tiorpsl system of unemployment insurance."

"You will recall that it was Feb- ruary. 1933, in which t‘ c proposed establishment of ‘a national system of unernplcyment insurance was set forth in the statement from which I am reading. The policy itself had been advocated by the party for some time previous.

Liberation of External Trade

"The Liberal party believes that

trade is the basis of industrial and

‘l developm ‘. and that Canada needs trade.

"It will promote trade with all nations and negotiate trade agree- ments with any countries willing to trade with Canada on r. reciprocal basis

“It will abolish the extravagant increases in the tariff made by the present administration. which have had the effect of strangling trade, exploiting consumers. and robbing railways of business.

"It will abolish all unwarranted extra taxes on imports, such u the exchange and dumping duties, as imposed by the present tration.

“It will end the making and al- tering of tariffs by executive ac- tion.

“It will suistitfie stability for uncertainty in the administration of customs laws

"It will continue the Liberal policy of British preference by a percentage reduction in existing tariffs rather than by a percentage increase against foreign countries in existing tariffs. “It will grant to a real preference. “I cannot stress too strongly the importance the Liberal party at- taches to getting rid of prohibitory tariffs, and other restrictions which have been strangling Canada's trade. It believes, that upon the development and expansion of our domestic and foreign trade depends the only ultimate solution of the problems of unemployment, rail- ways, debt and taxation. and the establishment of substantial mons- ures of social reform."

' British imports

Liberation of Internal Trade

‘The Liberal party will seek t0 end artificial price control and agreements in restraint of trade. Price fixing by agreements restrict and hamper trade internally. The internal trade of our country has become haneycombe’ and, esh- ed by secret understandings and agreements. This policy. you will observe. was aimed at the very kind of unfair practices in merchandis- ing and industry which, more than a year later. were publicly disclosed, before the Mass Buying and Price Spreads Committee of the House of Commons and the Prir: Spreads Commission.”

Development of Primary Industries

"’I'hc Liberal party, by its policies: will continue to further the devel- opment of agriculture. lumbering, mining and fisheries by effecting reductions in the coats of produc- tion of Canada's basic products and by obtaining wider markets therefore. by encouraging export trade, and by state assistance in the marketing of natural produces."

Raises Objection

“This statement should serve ef- fectively to silence those who per- slst in saying that, because o1 its objections to certain obnoxious features of the Marketing Act. the Liberal Party is opposed to state assistance. and e. legitimate meas- ure of state control. in the market- ing of natural products. What the Liberal party objects to in the Marketing Act are provisions which give to the Governor ln Council, _a_ Parliament altogether, power to‘ restrict imports and ex- ports. and t; local groups, not rep- resentative of any Legislative bod- ies, power. apart from the approval of Parliament, to make binding reg- ulations and to create fines and penalties. As was r inted out in Parliament. Mr. Bennett has. under the provisions of the Marketing Act. taken the conduct of foreign trade awa from the control of Parlia- mcn and inio his own hands. Them is objection. as well. to other arbitrary and bureaucratic powers which the Act confers. and to pro- visions which, undcr a system of licensing and limiting production, place producers wholly at ths mercy of thoss in authority. The party also believes that the compulsory

people. and also to deal with 180b- lems of international commcrocand exchange.

“As a National Central Bank has been established. by the present government. since this statemcntof Lioeml policy was issued. I feel it

essary to say hcic that tho Bank. of Canada. as established, il flt from being the institution contem- plated by the Liberal party. The Bank of Canada is. as more than one. of our leading economists have laid. of the Fascist type- It is n private corporation. with power to control the volume of the country's credit. let me repeat what I said in Parliament. in protesting against the surrender. to a private institu- tion, of the state's control over the nation's currency and credit: “Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the nation's laws. Usury. once in contml. will wreck any nation. Until the control of the issue of currency and credit ls re- sumed to government and recogniz- ed ss its most conspicuous and sac- red responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of Parliament and of democracy is idle and futile. To regain for the nation what has thus been lost. will continue to be a flfll objective of Liberal effort.

Control of Investments

"The Liberal party believes the financial mismanagement of indus- try is largely responsible for many conditions obtaining today.

"To pwvent exploitation of the

public through the sale of watered stocks and worthless securities. it believes an investment control board should be established. with super- vision of issues of securities by companies incorporated under fed- eral charters. "How far short the legislationcn- acted by the present administration: has fallen of what is hero wiiwscd. should be apparent to all."
