Churchill Returns To Street-corner Campaigning
IDNDON. Feb. 23 —-(CP)-Oon- lervative leader Winston Churchill,
spruce and stmrtg-voiced, returned-
today tn street-comer campaigning with a tour through Hautmersmith south constituency where by-elec- tinn votes will be cast. tomorrow.
Standing in an open automobile, ltoidtttg a loud-speaker. Churchill boomed out his message.
Ile grinned at elderly wet-den who tned to touch his sleeve. snarled at labor interruptors, puffed at a cigar like a steam engine and wav- ed his ‘high-domed bowler hat when the crowds sang "For He's a. Jolly Good Fellow."
But for all the excitement over Churchill's visit. there are few in Harumersmith South prepared to guarantee that Anthony Fell. the Iu-rcar-oid engineer who is the Conservative candidate. would snatch the seat from labor. The
labor standard-bearer is Tom Williams. a At-year-old history tutor.

"If Canada wanted to, we could have free trade with the United States now." Premier J. Walter Jones declared in the Legislature yesterday. He added that this pol- icy would not he developed until after the next election "because the Conservatives would scuttle it the some as they did in i911."
I-Ie said that before Confedera- tion Nova Scotia and Prince Ed- ward Island were the most pros- perous parts of British North Am- erica. It was the national policy of tariff protection which had kept them back. he maintained.
Following the Leader of the 0p- position last. night in the Draft Address debate. Premier Jones rc- viewed both provincial and fed- eral matters in a speech of con- siderable length.
Paying tribute to the record of retired Prime Minister Mackenzie K1118. he quoted Mr; King as say- ing that. the secret. of political
ss is to avoid mistakes. "That," he_added, "is what this Government is trying to do."
The new Conservative leader, Mr. Drew, was making quite an impression until last week, when he took an uiiwisg stand on the issue of Nflwfoundlands entry into Confederation, the Premier be- lieved. He dealt at some length with the debate on this subject in the House cf Commons. at which he had been an auditor.
Premier Jones disputed Mr. Drew's claim that Mr. King. and not Messrs. Duplessis and Drew. were responsible for breaking up the last Dominion-Provtttcial eon- fcrence on tax agreements. "The two Central Provinces seem to think that they can control the rest of us in Canada.“ he said. "That seems to be in the minds

In Draft Address Debate Asked For
Floor Prices
OTTAWA. Feb. 28 — (C?) The government was asked by a farmers’ organization today to consider plans for supporting con- sumer food demand and establish- ing floor prices under farm pro- ducts as s. means of softening possible, future economic shocks.
Expressing disappointment that price controls during the war had not prevented inflation. the Cans- ian Federation of Agriculture pre- sented its annual brief to the Cabinet stressing dangers to the economy and urging new policies to meet them.
The C. F. A. said there tvim- minent danger oi severe deflation and a. probable breakdown in inter- national trade at the end of the present period of American fin- ancial aid to Europe.
It urged the government to ex- B" "H? effort to achieve the maximum exchange of goods and services among all countries. But pending that achievement. the C.
F. A. suggested considering bi- lateral trade pacts and barter agreements.
All? reduction in consumer da- mand for food due to unemploy- ment in industry would cause a sharp fail in farm prices.
“Therefore,” the C, F. A. said. “as a means of r -' ‘ Lngtnhliitv
in the demand of consumers for food we recommend that without delay tlze government explore ways and means of maintaining this consumer demand. . . we feel that before very long some such mo. gram will be essential in Canada if we are to prevent ruinously low prices for farm products and the piling up of food surpuluses in government hands."
The government was urged to fake immediate steps to work nut a satisfactory formula for setting

Federal Health Grants» Program Is Outlined
By Douglas How
OTPAWA. Feb. 23-—(OP)—-‘I‘he Commons‘ wide-ranging 'I"hi'0ne- Bpesnh debate today brought forth a government statement that Can- sdl. is getting another 13.000 hos- pital bed: and an Opposition statement that taxation is stifling domestic and foreign trade.
Its three-hour Wednesday sitting got the fomner from Health Min- ister Martin who reported on the first six months operation of the $30.000.000-a-year Federal health program which. he said. was un- surpassed in the world.
The jab at high taxes came from lion. Earl Rowe (PC- Bulletin-Simone) who charged that. they are imposing “a crippling burden" on the coun- try, threatening to “stifle the thrlt of our people" and mis- ing the coat of living.
In the last your. the government had collected 0M0 a family more than it actually needed.

The Y's Men's Chorus. directed by Mr. Frank Johnston. A.T.C.L., rendered pleasingly “Bless This House" just previous to the con- clusion of the official program.
Afterwards those present conductedmn a tour of the build- ing with .many complimentary re- marks bclng heard on the ntodertl, up-to-dste structure.

House opening brought another flurry of quesuons from members on subjects, bringing from Prime Minister St. Laurent the observat- ion that oral questions shouldonly be asked on urgantunatters. Others, he said, should be placed on the order paper for written replies. The answers that were given in- cluded one in which Jixiernai Af- fairs Minister Pearson laid it was too early to tell whether Christian missions in will be able to funct- ion properly in Communist China. There ‘had been reports from that area but they were ‘ lusive. Mr. Martin, reviewing the three- pt-ortged program of Federal aid to Provincial health activities. said some 600 projects costing $13,000.- ooo had been approved by his de- partment amee last August. The government considered its grants

By March 3i. he announced. Fed- eral aid would be authorized for 13.000 hospital beds. about one- third of a five-year objective. The total of 825.000 had been allocated for the Provincial surveys and they

‘Bali For Higher iPotatn Duty, ‘flower Quota
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23 --IC-P) ~A Maine potato grower today protested to Congress that. Canad- ian seed potatoes are being sold for table use in the United States. He said this hurts the United States growers and thp government price- support program. _

New Taxation Deal Expected For Farnlttrs
OTTAWA. Feb. 23 — (C?) — A new taxation deal which will affect some 50.000 to 00.000 farm- ers and ranchers across the country may be announced by the government within a week or two, it was learned authorit- atively tonight.
The government announce- ment is expected to place a new interpretation on the basic herd principle of computing income tax for farmers.
First indications of a taxat- ion revision came when H. H. Hannam. president of the Cana- dian Federation of Agriculture. met. wiln the cabinet. today and placed before Prime Minister 8t. Laurent and his colleagues a brief containing taxation and other complaints.
Specifically, the meeting at- tended by i2 members of the cabinet and held in the Prime Minister's office heard corn- plaints that ‘the basic herd system of computing income tax. while commendable. had certain aspects which _made_it “entire- ly unsatisfactory."

Opposition Leader Warns Against Further Deficits
Warning against. extravagance in the continued increase in govern- mental offices nnd officials, Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MacMillan. leader of the Opposition, railed attention in tthe Legislature yesterday lo the ihuge overall deficit of a million and a quarter dollars shown in the Public Accounts this year, and predicted a similar increase next year if the same policies were fol- lowed.
Speaking in the Draft. Address debate. he insianced the paragraph referring to the proposed rrentinn ‘of Crown companies. "I ran see," Dr. MnrMiilnn said. "that the Pre- micr wants to put ltitnsclf on n ‘par with the C. C. F. legislators in rSnskntchewAn. This Government is igniting too top-heavy. Perhaps if tsomc nf the Ministers did a little ntore work. instead of Iririn: so many officials to do thc- work for them. they would not he such an oxponsive administration aa we ihave at the present time.
"We have itearri so much during
the post. few years about this mul- tiplicity of departmental account- .lnp. that I nm getting rather sick iof il." the Opposition lender add- ed. "I think there is more thnn tsufficicttt help without adding to these departments? j Dr. hlncMillan noted that "a new tdeputy minister of a non-exisleutt ldcpnrtnlcnt" had been appointed, ‘who was also to supervise the treas- tury department. He nskerl what the. ttwo auditors and Attorney General were doing in this connection.
He reminded the leader of (he Gnvernntent. that several questions placed on the order paper last ses- sion had never been nnsur-rred. This year the Opposition tvotlld in- sist on having nil questions an- swered before the House rises.
He recalled that the Premier hnd taken two of his ministers in task last session for greatly exceeding their estimates. The Minister of Highwnys, who was 0ne.of the ministers referred to, had Inter ad-s mittctl ltnvin: done so and had boasted of hzuing won the election by that means. '
Dr. MacMillnn paid tribute to former deceased members. and went on to denounce the menace of Communism, which is threaten- ing all Christian faiths in Europe.
Are conditions so satisfactory to the farlners of this Province that their difficulties should he omitted from the Throne Speech? he asked. What. about freight rateg? About the potato marketing situation. the Federal farm income tax grievan- ces and other matters? He criti- cised particularly the onerous fax return system now in force.
He ngreed with the seconder of the Addren (Mr. Campbell) that immigrants to Canada should be carefully screened, not only with regard to their physical condition. but their environment and beliefs an well.
On the margarine question. Dr. MacMillan said it was well to pro- tact the interests of the farmers. but at the lame time there were many poor people in this Province who were unable to buy butter at present of margarine. however. it should be insisted upon that the people would have the opportunity of knowing exactly what they were buying.
Dr. MacMiilan was in accord with the pIODOBGd Workmenb Com- pensation Act. as he always believ- ed they have the same right to protection as any other class.
