Mr. King, as Rt. Hon. Arthur Vfeighen told him long ago, la ‘bursting through an open door" when he talks of Canada's right to attain national sovereignty. He is even wider of the mark when he attempts to claim credit for having achieved this objective for Canada.

Here in place of political rhetoric, are some facts and figures which are a sufficient answer to the etatemente the Liberal leader ad- vances on this point:

Exports of Dominion products to the United Kingdom since July (the month of the Imperial Econ- emlo Conference) were $15,000,000 greater than during the correspond- ing months of 1931; to rill Empire countries more than $10,000,000 greater-this despite the decline in

According to Sir George McLaren

.Brown, European manager of the Canadian Pacific Railway, some 20 or 30 Canadian firms are’ now do- lng business in Britain for the first time; while at least 150 British firms are arranging for agencies in Canada.

Since March 81 (the close of the 1931 fiscal yeiir) Canada has in- creased hcr exports to 14 British countries and to 34 foreign coun- Iriel.

THE PHILIPPINES BILL-

President Hoover has vetoed the Philippines Independence Bill on the grounds "that it does not fulfill the United States triple responsib- ility to the American people, the Filipinos, and the world at large," The President's veto message lest week expressed the vlow that the United States must undertake fur- ther steps toward liberation of the islands "but they should be based upon a plebiscite to be taken fifteen or twenty years hence."

The United States problem of giving political independence to the Philippines is a.n insignificant one compared with Britain's similar problem in India. 'I‘he.t is a fact overlooked by anti-British American newspapers whichgln and out of season, have been agitating for Indian nationalism. One wonders what Uncle Sam would do if he had B Gandhi on his hands in the Phil- ippines, plu; millions of “irrecon- cilebles" and warring religious factions who would be at each other‘: throats the moment law and order were withdrawn.

RELIEF EXPENDITURE

Anticipating the opening yester- day of the Dominion-Provincial Conference at Ottawa, the Mail and Empire reviews the contribu- tions of money for relief purposes which the Federal treasury has made to the provinces and muni- cipalities. Under the Relief Act of 1930 the Dominion spent 818,130,- 000; under the Relief Act of 1931 the expenditures rose to $45,632,000; under the 1932 Act $9,500,000 was spent up to December 31. It is, in- deed, estimated that the total ex- penditures for the year ending March 31, i933, will not exbeed $25,000,000. It will thus be seen that in the face of very trying con- ditions the outlay for this year will not greatly exceed one half of last. year's expenditures.

The savings thus effected, notes the Mail and Empire, may fairly be attributed to the assiduous la- bors of Hon. Wesley Gordon, Min- fster of Immigration. Mr. Gordon is intent upon seeing that nobody shall suffer from hunger at" want of warm clothing or shelter, but he also realizes the necessity of pro- tecting the excheqiler and the tax- payers of the country, many of whom during the world depression have a heavy load to carry.

' Elsewhere in today's issue ap- pears an article from the Toronto Saturday Night by Mr. E. C. Buchanan, chairman of the Press Gallery a‘t Ottawa, oii the question

. _ of Canadian trade with Russia.

l‘ _ Ml‘. Buchanan emphasizes, what

was emphasized iii these columns ,_ yesterday, the fact that while Can- adian business houses are at lib- erty t0 trade with Russip, there is iio reason why they should expect "ihc Canadian Government to guar- Iahl lthvlnent from the Soviets,

Tlic cabaret and night club account rims to $23,725,000; vacation. automobile tours, tlierlii/zf. account for $3,200,- 000,000.

A statement of great importance to the 1300111,; of llie province of Quebec appears in tlic Lieutenant Governor's speech at the recent. opening of the legislature: "The Government has therefore decided to practice ihc strictest economy in every direction, not to add a single penny to the burden of "tax- ation which weiglis o.i. our people.

. to keep niuiiicipaliticg within the

strictest limits of their credit and iioi; to undertake any new works which will iiecd an appeal t0 our resources, save in so far as unem- ployment is concerned, if this should become necessary.“

From the Niagara fruit. district comes a. bit of encouraging news showing the early working of the Imperial Trade agreement as it is affecting Canadian business. 'I‘cii carloacis of canned fruits of var~ ious kinds have been shipped from Grinisby for the British market rc- ceritly. about. three hundred tons in all of the pears, plums, and pea.- ches for which this part of Cana- da. is famous. The most significant thing about it, is that the three hundred tons was a repeat. order, a. first. shipment having gone out by boat some time ago. Manlfestly, therefore, the first lot must. have proved satisfactory or there would not have been a. demand for more. And it there have been two ship- ments there will probably be more. The Governments of the Empire cannot drum up business; they canizot usurp the functions of com- mercial establishments. By politi- caharrangcment they have taken steps to change the channels of world commerce, imd now it is up to the people to take advantage of

their opportunities. While Cane-i dim products have a preference over non-Empire commodities,

there will still be plenty ofoompe- tition provided within the common- wealth of Nations.

Uuring 1932, the historic town of Imuisbucg. with its 2.000 inhabi- tants, did not have a. single arrest, and it was not necessary for the Magistrate to hold one session of the Police Court. "Not one citizen was injured, nor was there a. serious automnble accident," and "to fur- ther this record, no citizen has ap- peared at the Supreme Court at Sydney during the past twelve years on a criminal charge." May- or Huntington and the citizens of Loubburg may wcll take pride in a. record of this, kind. It is, per~ hops, unique ln Nova. Bootia. history in a. town of this size.

The program of trade preference which Canada and Bennuda. will put into operation on January 1, expending existing arrangement-f. is designed to serve the interests of both countries, but has stirred considerable criticism in ' the United States. Empire trade offers Bermuda. the hope of commercial expansion. In trade with the United States it can expect noth- ing but crumbs from the gable. The current lament in the U. S. Senate represents nothing but a. new eon- feseion chat trade cannot psi-man- ently be one-sided, and the fact that this is a. discouraging discov- ery for any country which has at- tempted to direct its commerce in

Mr. Galsworthy is much con- cerned with the younger novelists, and views them with pessimistic irony. He says of them: ‘"I'lic gen- eral level of literary efficiency among young writers is, nowadays. almost terrifying. An old writer has only to talk to them i0 we liow mucli iriore they know than himself, and if he can but; beak down their modesty. he can get quite a. lot of useful information about liow not to write, and whom not to read.

“But sometimes it is impossibio to break down their modesty; and then it is that the old writer has a. sort of cold feeling in the pit of h’; stomach. The silence: of the young writer ls disconcerting."
