Prime Minister B. B. Bennett said the statement to be wrong. These three were members of a large number of sha- holders and directors controlling the assets re- ferred t0. “It is well to be flir about these things," Mk. jennett

suggested.

"The right honorable gentleman is quite right," Mr. Garland agreed, "but he knows full well bow they dominate this wealth."

"Quite the opposite," m. Ben- nett retcrted. "They control the companies they head but in the case of others I know they often do not attend the directors meet- ings." '

“Well, I would like to know when Sir Herbert Hows will was ever thwarted-even by this govern- ment," m. Garland said.

replied the Prime lnnista.

That was another quution, m. Garland replied While the Bank or Canada Act contemplated con- trol of the volume of money by the central bank, it did not provide for directing its use.

Heavy Damage Is Anticipated From Thaw

(C. P. By Guardian's Special WIII) MONTREAL, March L-Yiood ill- surance is being sought to an unpre- cedented amount here this year in anticipation of a March thaw, in- surance brokers reported today.

Canadian companies ordinarily do not write this type of risk, it was learned, and applications for cover- age are being addressed to Llcyds in London. Whether that vr will accept the risks is expected to be decided within a few days.

Heavy snowfall and extremely cold weather have caused apnea; a thaw would cause heavy dsmsge and house owners in low lying parts of Montreal are gravely concerned.

In many cases household furni- ture has bee moved to protect it should floods occur. The coating of ice in the rivers is much heavier than in recent years and s serious ice jam is feared when the break- up comes.

Independent House

sir John had referred to the Up- per House as "the sober second thought of legislation" and intima- ted there would be no use of en Up- per I-louse if it did not exercise when it thought proper, the right of op- posing, amending or postponing the legislation of the lower House-it must. be an independent House hav- ing a free action of its own, valu- able as a regulating body, prevent- ing any hasty or ill-considered i88- islation which may come from the lower House."

Senator Murphy outlined the re- peated eflorls of the Benet-e itself to secure a greater volume of legis- lative business. 1n I068, right after Confederation it. appointed s oom- mittee to seek means to this end, and the committees report was un- animously adopted. Subsequently other efforts were made.

senator Murphy. dealt with the f ‘uent ilfwoesl through the years that there should be Cabinet min- isters in the Senate if not with port- folim. then without portfolios but in the government's confidence, and the proposal that inisters should be able to appear in either House to explein and deal with legislation. There was a very dull debate on the latter question in 1921 when the Minister of the Interior, the Post- master General, and the Minister of Labor were all members of the Up- per House. After debate the resolu- tion we_s withdrawn.

in the world. When Julius Caesar invaded Britain he captured tbo their oc- cupation the Romans fortified the town and erected around it three walls. when they left Britain they left intact a city which was built on the plsn of Roms. The Iibrum was located where Idansion House now stands.

The Romans occupied London m account of its strategic value. A large ares near the river was tidal bog. The Thames valley is very fer- tile. Over the chalk formation is an alluvial deposit 400 feet thick in which there are traces cf tropical vegetation. The Romans found the fisher people of the city fierce and warlike. and therefore settled in the midst of them. They built the first London Bridge. The Romans with- drew in 410 and the Saxons con- quered the country, and eventually occupied the city. ‘Iha city stood out heroically against the Danes who could not go beyond London Bridge with their boats, until they had dug a canal around it. Event- ually London came to be rifled by the Danes, and was later a centre of interest during the Norman con- quest.

Wiliiam the conqueror built the ‘Dower of Ienqpn. The Saxons, who were not town lovers, left the city to the Normans, who were great builders, and who erected the Tem- ple, and first St. Paul's, which was burned in i060, finished Westmin- ster Abbey, and built great monas- tries. To this day there remains a spot in London when the right of sanctuary may still he claimed by criminals. Smith field is an historic section, as there it was customary toburn‘ “ ,andtoholdtourn- aments. -

The Temple is a very large place shut of! from the world. In the cen- tre is the Round Church. Here for- merly was the headquarters of the semi-religious and-nmi-military cr- der cf Knights Templar. When the Tcmplers were expelled, the Knights Hcspitsllers occupied the Temple. The Hospitallers were driven out by Henry VIII. who rented the ‘Temple to the barristers. After occupying the Temple till the time of James, the barristers bought it outright.

During the Plantagenet Period. and the Houses of Lancaster and Yonlr, the City grew, though scour- ged by fire and plague. The city of London today is only about one- thirtlcth of Greater London. which occupies 400 square miles. The Bank of Englnnd is the financial centre of the world as well as of London.

Dr. Ramsay took his hearers a- long some of the chief streets, in- dicating points of historic interest. Various parts of continuous streets, he stated, have different names, be- cause they grew inch by inch. and because formerly they were streets of outlying towns. In Greater Lon- don there are 16.000 different street names.

All the Ihiglish literature is in- stinct with the atmosphere of Lori- don. Dr. Ramsay said Chaucer worked there in the thirteenth cen- tury. Bhakcmesre and Hen Jonson arlilcd there in we I rid Tav- ern. Xt is related of aon that on one occasion ha pined two friends who had been imprisoned by James I for some lines they had written about the Scots, and who were threatened with mutilation.

Speaking of great edifices of Losi- don, Dr. Ramsay described St. Paul's Cathedral which contains some of the most sacred tablets of the lim- pire history. Other buildings, well- known throughout the world were also described by the speaker. lu- ference was also made to a visit to Thomas Carlyleh house, behind which he saw people picking pears from a tree which Carlyle himself had planted, and from which he had said he expected the Cockneys would pick the fruit.

The speaker described a visit to Hyde Park and Kenaingten Oar- dens. In the Round Pond of the latter. boys and men sail toy boats. In Kensingtcn Palace, Queen Vic- toria was born, and spent her early life. The royal residency in 5t. James Park were also described Charles I spent the night before his execution in St. James Palace.

There is no definite industrial see- tlon of London, Dr. Ramsay stated. The slum area of the hat bide la gradually disappearing as s result cf the Government building policy. Modern transportation has made pcilihic much building outside the city.

His address was full of beautiful and comforting thoughts for the bereaved ones as well as paying a tribute to the departed.
