Anonier- Pledge

The Ottawa journal has bceu rcminding Mr. Mackenzie King that. yvars ago, he pledged him- self to reform the Canadian Senate. and has ex- presscd the hope that the l'i‘illlc .\Iin' tcr would not find it necessary to prcscnt a QTcbiscite to relieve himself of the promiw.

The Prime liliuistci-‘s pledge was given some time in thc middle l\\'.‘|lll(‘<, The Senate, ivhich had a Conservative nmjuritv at tlic time, had been intercfring with sumo govvriiiiisiil legislation, and Mr. King was illccn-c/l. Had he had the power. no doubt he would have undertaken reform right then. llut the Scnnle uuist PtllliPlll to its own re- form and Ilicre win-z lllll'lllll“ll use risking it to adopt any rcfnrm bill Mr. King might scnd up. So there ivas tiollling l0 do but prnlllise mu] ivnit for the working nf time and mortality‘, which,

1 wmisiug nothing, are continually making

the Senate over.

As a result of Mr King's appointments In the late twenties, the Scnatc- became more and mnra Liberal. 'I‘hen My. Bennett turned the tide and it became Conservative again. Since Mr. King's return to power in 1935, it. has become definitely Liberal and at present about a sixth of its scat: are vacant.

"The time for reform," comments the Van- cutivei- Province, “has arrived. But it may b2 doubtcd if .\lr. King is very much interested. He has a lot of other things to attend to; and, in any case. the Senate gives him littletrouble. It has not been very active for some time. and, now that Mr. Mcighcn is no longcr a member. it will be lcss of a factor in Canadian life than ever, The problem of the Senate has been solved by allowing it to go to sleep."

If. would be logical to place the Allies defence o! the Indies under a Dutch ad- miral. But Admiral Hclfricli has been chosen not. alone because of his office but because of his ex- ceptional knowledge of the waters and defenses of the Indies and be- cause of his rare personal gifts. For years he has. been preparing against the picsenu crisis. For years he has studied all the ap- prc aches to the Indies. and the pos- sible defenses. He is an authority on unierseas strategy, and an ad- vocate of the use of air power as a weapon against. sen power.

In the last issue of Canadian Business Is given under the caution “Who‘s Who in the Wartime Price: and Trade Board." a list of over 250 officials and administrators who are directing this business In Canada. under Chairman Donald 30111011. of Ottawa.

_We are not questioning the neces- sity of some control over prices, but doss It rcqwre an army? Two hundred head officials distributed tn Ottaiva. Toronto and Mont-real, seems like a top-heavy administrat- ion. How-ever. remember that- each one of these officials calls for a large staff and In each city they have taken over huge biriklings no house this extraordinary staff. Clerks. séenographers and other office assistants are hired by the hundred.
