I Mr. Howe Once Again 'i

It is doubtful that any menrber of the King Government has achieved the reputation fur making more foolish speeches than Hon. C. D. Howe, Minister of Reconstruction in the Fed- nl Cabinet. hlziritiniers will remember par- ticularly his vulgar and impertinent reference to the “yappin_;" of thcse provinces when we dared to ask for our rights at Ottawa. liut in the speech lic dt-livcretl before the Canadian Club of Chicago last ivt-ck, .\Ir. Howe stirpas- ICCl himself and attaincrl a new altitude of ir- responsibility wlicn heydcclaretl that conscrip- tion in (‘anada “is rather a political question than a question of meeting an urgent need."

Ailzilyving this statement, the Sivdncyi Port‘- Recorrl iiiitls that it contaﬁis two obvious fzllsé- hoods. time is that lllcrt- is no “urgent need" of l'(‘lllftll't"t‘lllllll\ for tluizulzrs overseas forces. notwith-taiitliitg t‘..i.~....~i halstoifs insistence on this point. ziiit-r a tour of the bzlttlefronts and after conferring with the officers. in command of our ovcrscas (livisions. The other is that the (lClllllllrl for the dispatch of draftces from the lloiilu .'\rm_v to liuropc without dclay' is part of a. political game on the part of the King Government's opponents, designed to embar- rass the rcgimc at Ottawa. .>\nd this notwith- standing thc known iact that this issue has been iorcetl lllltlll ihc country‘ by the rcsignatioil from the Cabnict of the Blinistei‘ of Defence, whose long and tiiiuzlvering fidelity to the Lib- eral party will ccrtaiiily stiffer nothing by coni- pari-tni with thc rccoi-rl of .\lr. C. l). Howe.

It is inconceivable that .\lr. Howe would dare tn make so brazen and senseless a speech in Canada, where the facts are known,—-ivhere the Canadian Legion is demanding an inimedi- ate draft from the llotiic .\i'ni_v with a united voicc, and wlicrc Liberal newspapers and Lib- eral members of parliament are speaking out earnestly in support of that demand. But in so speaking in the United States the Minister of Reconstruction has done vastly more to pre- judice the Canadian \\'lll‘ effort abroad than he could have done by giving voice to any such nonsense in Canada where he is too well known to do any harm.

Ii there is a disturbing political aspect t0 this issue which is now stirring the whole Dominion, cvcryonc knows its origin. It has had its genesis and dcrivcs its sustenance from Mr. I\'itig’s dctcrmiiizition to stand iu with the Quebec anti-conscriptiouists at all hazards. There is no reason why politics should play any part in this question of reinforcements, and thcre will bc lllt danger of anything of the kind if Mr. King and his colleagues give honest and prompt effect to the will of the people, as ex- pressed in the overwhelming majority recorded 1n the IllElll]tf>\\'C'l' plebiscite of April I942.

Eden 0n Controls

Rt. Hon. Anthony Eden is not in love with controls of ally kind, esticcially with regard t0 industry. “To defeat the totalitarian States our people have ticccptci] rcgiineiitzition and controls to an cxteiit tievcl‘ before known in our history, but though we use these weapons we do not lovc them. Though we employ them for a spccificpurtiosc to dcfczti our encuiy in war we have no intention to perpetuate them for their Own sake in pcacc." _\ll_\' attempt to abolish all controls the moment the war was won would land us in chaos: ordered reduction ‘must be our ohjcct. lii iiitcrtiatioilzil affairs the cap- ital lesson today was that of the iutcrtlcpcutl-

evil to a greater or less degree. The only dif- ference is that the C.C.F. is the only major poli- tical party in Canada which enforces machine control all the way down the line without ex- ception and without compunction; the only party which maintains as a matter of principle and a universal practice that the members of our legislative bodies shall represent the party, and not the people who elect them.

“The whole basis of democratic government is that the people shall be governed by the f<-‘P' resentatives of t e people.

"The whole trend of the ‘far-reaching prin- ciple‘ announced by Mr. Winch is that thﬁ people are to be governed by representatives of a party or faction.

"In theory at least, while a candidate for election may be supported by, and declare his adherence to the principles of, a political party. his first allegiance is to the people of his cou- stitueucy. He represents all the people of that constituency, those who voted against him a5 well as those who voted for him.

"When he speaks and votes in the legis- lative body to which he is accredited by the pcO- ple of‘ his district, he speaks and votes for the people, not for a party machine 0r the ﬁlm-WIT of a faction.

“The principle which Mr. Win61! 1135 enunciated —— the principle that exactly the op- posite is the case-is an evil and dangeroul principle. ~It is a. principle which is already too much accepted in our political lifc. and wheth- er or not the C. C. F. chooses to stand’ or tall by it, it is a principle which cvcry bchcrrl‘ H1 democratic government should oppose and up- root wherever it is found."

A graduate of McGill University and one of that institution's women pioneers in the field of economics has added further laurcls to licr career in American politics. She is Mrs. Chase Going Woodhouse, Connecticut Secretary of State from 194i to r942 who defeated the sec- oud district Republican incumbent, Representa- tive john D. McWilliams, to become a. Demn- cratic congresswoman, the second congress- woman, elected by the state of Connecticut. Born in Victoria, B. C., Mrs. Woodhouse, who was formerly Margaret Chase Going, entered McGill in i908 electing economics as her field in the davs when few women devoted their at- tention to that study. Four years later she re- ceived a B.A. degree from McGill. and in i913 was granted the M.A. degree, the subject of her Master's thesis being “Women and Prison Re- form in the United States." At present a pro- fessor of economics at the Connecticut Col- lege for Women, Mrs. Woodhouse was at on: time assistant in the department of political economy at the University of Chicago. She is also at the present time director of the Wo- men's Institute of Professional Relations. She is the mother of two children, ouc of her sons being in the United States Army Air Force.
