TOURIST TRADE

The total expenditures of tourists

from other countries in Canada in 1932 was approximately, $194,000,- 000 and the total expenditures of. Canadian tourists in other count- ries approximately $58,000,000, these being decreases of $57,000,000 and $18,000,000 respectively as compared with the preceding year. If an a1- lowancc ls made for the exchange situation the expenditcres in Can- ada in 1932 would be in the neigh- borhood of $212,000,000 as against $250,776,000 in 1931. Saloon class passengers who came to Canada as tourists via ocean ports in 1932 numbered 2,445. an increase of 13 over 1931; cabin class passengers 3,929 and third class 4,381, these being declines of 460 and 1,027 respectively. The total expenditures of these in Canada are estimated at $10,812,000.

There was a substantial decline in the number of automoblcs which came into Canada from the United States in 1932 for touring purposes.

The Canadian railways have sel-

ected an area in Western Oritarzof for an experiment with a pick-up

and delivery system under contract

with truck owners, whereby the

service of the railways will be, in‘ effect, carried t0 the door of the

shipper without extra cost to him.

What the result of this experiment

will be ‘is still problematlcal, and

even if lt is successful in the area

thing approaching a general scale

may be considered doubtful in view

of the fact that the western pen-

nsula presents exceptional eondl-i tlons as a traffic producing territ- cry.

According to expert observations earthquakes are more a to take place in regions where there is a sudden slope towards a great dc- prcssion, as on the Pacific coast. Two of the nicst severe earth trem- °Y5 experienced in the United Stal- cs have occurred within a :irclc verging on the Pacific ocean, one of these ivas 1n April, 1906 in middle California, where the coastal reg- ion was shaken to its foundations, causing a loss of some 1500 livcs 311d some $500,000,000 I11 damage 1° Pmllcrty.

In contradistinction to the rigid Qwrwmy campaign of vcightecn months ago, in Great Britain, a new slogan is now gaining currency. “spend for Employment" is being heard all along the line excepting in the realm-of ﬁnance and bank- ing where the conservative attitude $011 Prevails. 1n 1930 the country readily responded to the demand that the sterling exchanges Shguld be protected, the flow of imports checked. credit restricted, public expenditure reduced. and taxation raised to any level necessary to balance the budget. In the stres; of n great crisis the natioir p“. icntly submitted to a policy vvhicn entailed much sacrifice. But nhcrc is now a swelling tide of opinion that the cautious policy rightly adopted, in 1930 has been improp-

now is for ercclit expansion, reduc- ed taxation, and the increased use of stagnant ﬁnancial resources for productive enterprises which would tlivc employment and increase con- suming power.

President Roosevelt ls on the right track when hc campaigns against crookedness in high finance. Greedy exploitation of the trusting public is not part of the doctrine of “rug- ged individualism." It is the worst foe of individualism under the cap- italist system of economy. These sentences in Roosevelt's speech stand out as the courageous policies of an honest man: “Practices of the unscrupulous money changers stand indicted 1n the court of public opinion,_ rejected by the beam and minds of men. There must; m, an end to a. conduct in banking and tn business which too often has given to a. sacred trust the likeness of callous and selfish wrongdoing. There must be an end to speculation with other people's money."

An order-In-councll now appmv. ed provides “that whenever mat- erlals or goods of ll kind or class not produced or manufactured in Canada. are required by any depart- ment of the Government or by any contractor of l-Iis Majesty engaged 1n a building or other contract, provision be made, when tenders arc called for or in the contract, to the effect that such materials or goods shall be of Empire production or manufacture and that where standards are specified an Empire standard be adopted unless it ls conclusively shown that the goods or materials in question cannot be obtained within the nnplre."

Archibald M. Campbell, the hon- orary curator of the Municipal Mlueum at Perth, now recalls that when the Mackenzie Rebellion broke out in Upper Canada. almost a century ago one of the ﬁrst acts 0f the Government was to pass an order-ln-council luspendlrig specie payment and almost immediately the silver currency disappeared as if by maglo-Brockvllle Recorder.

Keeping The Ether Alive

tNc-w York Sun)

The universal ether, without which nineteenth century science believed light waves could not be transmitted through space, has only a few champions left; it has a most loyal and aggressive one in Professor Dayton c. Miller, of the Case School of Applied Science in Cleveland. Professor Miller 1s about to present the results of nearly 160,000 readings with an 1n- terferomctcr which in his opinion show dcfirrte evidence of a drift of the earth through this all-per- vading medium. He. holds-and no one will dispute him there-that if the existence of the ether can be definitely proved one of the tun- damcntal postulates of relativity will have to be modified.
