Not by any combination of cir-

cumstances has the Liberal party the ghost of a chance of winning the next election, and Mr. Mac- kenzie Klng knows it. After Octo- ber 14, Mr. Bennett will still be Prime Minister.

The Conservatives will have a majority over all, or the biggest minority with which to form a coalition. That is what is worrying the Lib- eral Leader.

It comes with a rather ill grace from a United States newspaper, lays our Saint John contemporary the Telegraph Journal, to charge Great Britain and France with abandoning Ethiopia to the met- cies of Italy- The Chicago News assumes this attitude.

lion, as probably he will.

It may be well to remember.

however, that this power of per- sonality is purely local, and with- out influence beyond the radius of where he is known. His scheme, on

the other I-wild. might have a few followers every part of Canada, but would cut no ice except to have a. number of dfscontented voters in skeps where they would do no harm.

To illustrate the futility of the Social Credit scheme, let some one acquafntcd with facts analyse the specific item as set forth by Aber- hart, as his most convincing argu- ment, l-le takes a. bushel of wheat for example. In the “fair price" program he promises 60c per bush- el for wheat. His government rev- enue is figured out nicely for credits, but there are debits which are less familiar to him than preaching. Of the 60c, 5.'ic goes to the farmer. 5c to the government. Bran and by product are allowed the miller for cost of milling. This. transferred to the baker, at 600 is convertible into 50 loaves of bread. From this fifty loaves, which must be sold to consumers at 7c per loaf, the government gets lc per loaf, leaving Sc to the baker.

But Mr. Aberhart has lost sight

of the fact that “there's many slip twixt the cup and the lfp," as between the fanner's wheat de- livery and the bread to the con- sumers door. With wheat at 00c,and feed by products at stagnation val- ues, will these sever milling costs? In other days, with 'l0c wheat, and stiff prices for bran and shorts, it was sufficient, but is it today?

pay this, plus a further transpo tax to f.he Government, which

to reap a revenue at'every stag . The baker, allowed 6c for his loaf, sells to the retail stores which can- not handle for less than a cent a loaf, mostly it is not less than a cent and a. half, reducing his price received to 5c per loaf, or $2.50 for his 50 loaves, providing none are, bumt, or left stale and unsold on his hands, From this $2.50 he has to pay s0c for the flour, plus, bags as containers. cartage from mill to bakery, coal for ovens, employees wages, cost of delivery teams, sani- tary wrapplngs, rent, light. city and provincial taxes, insurance. wear and tear of ovens and equip- ment, interest on investment, and something over to buy bread, hous- ing and clothes for his family.

Likewise the miller, allowed the

by products for milling cost, must pay all these extra expenses in ad- dition to the actual cost of milling, even suppose the by products were sufficient to cover milling costs.

The utopia of income revenue as

figured out by Mr. Aberhart, when he limits the spread between 000 wheat to ‘lc bread, is very liable to become unreal. Particularly if ns collects his revenue after all the intermediate expenses have been provided for. And both miller and baker would very soon be listed in bankruptcy if they tried to work out on the announced Social Cre- dit example. _ __ __ -

Then came the awakening. Al-

is bel-ta revealed to them the bil/tel' e 'truth it was not tm Liberal party

that voters were taking fc their bosom. They were voting for the siren promises of bread and butter and employment. And like the sir- en nymphs of fable, with rich song and fine promises, luring marin- erg ui their doom. so the Liberal governments lured voters to de- struction; voters who had no use for King or his promising setelftca. but voted for the loaves and fishes

Only a few days before the elec-

tion the Liberal dictators announc- ed their intention to annex Al- berts. to the provinces already under their control. The small fry politi- cal isms were soon to be crushed under their steam roller, and thsn the solid phalanx at Ottawa d crack the whips of command. and canada would have tc bow to the great idol of imperlous and auto-

It took the apparently insignifi-

cant fam. the Aberhart, party, to show them how insignificant they are. It wasnt policy. It was a ques- tion of bread. It was also a ques- tion of faith. Aberhart was a relig- ious teacher. He had never deceiv- ed them as the Liberals had. He didn't have Mackenzie Kings ree- ord of low prices and falling mar- kets for their product. His promis- ea of bread and work were bigger and wider than the King promises. and they had better rea-son to be- lieve the divinity student than the pork barrel adventurer, and so they votcd.

Liberals had thirteen seals in the Alberta legislature, elected by~ lable maioritfes. 40.270 Liberal votes against 26.440 Conservative. Tho!! thirteen Liberals, with their commanding maierfties have been unhoreed. Their vauntlngs and boaltfngs have been silenced. Those of the mighty fallen, with none to do them reverence. Dreams of em- pire and conquest have faded. and they find themselves as eoinmon \n°n-\.ll- wmp-lied to lion ins dust in the reverses of fate.

only five years ago it gave Mac-

kenzie King a preliminary drub- bing, returning five Conservatives tc two Liberals to the Federal House. The gloomy iutlock for the Liberal leader is that the West. the fount of all his hopes, is unattract- ed by the bids and promises of Mr. King. The East likewise will hand the discontent vote to Stevens. with a possible few to the C,C.F., and, stripped of this expectant suv- ppm he will be poor indeed with the danger of not even holding sec- ond plaoe in the race for an elected following.

There is another great danger

from the lookout. Prince Albert. the strongest Liberal riding in Canada, is the seat held by Mackenzie King. in Saskatchewan. Only a few days ago he was renominated with .the flying colors of the party, accom- panfed with a congratulatory not/e that “nrmination here means cer- tain election."

The fatal outlook is that this

eonstituency ls closely within the sphere of Aberhart influence, and at s. mandate from the Alberta Premier-elect the Right I-lon. Mac- kenzie King is almost certain to be returned to the quiet of his home and fireslde. ft is a niral constit- uency, and ft is the rural districts that are most under "Social Credit" contro‘.

Criticism Without Knowledge

((Fiederfct.on Gleaner)

General Provincial elections

which have taken place in New Brunswick and Prince Edward Is- land during the summer, have started editorial writers of On- tario and Quebec away on an- other bout of writing about the Maritime Provinces and the great benefits which they can observe from their somewhat remotc posts, as likely to be reaped from Mari- time Union. The thleadbare argu- ments which have been employed before, once more are trotted out. Emphasis is placed upon the "economy" in administration-costs which would be brought about by the creation of one province in the

place of three.

This argument is one of the best

indications that the distant critics are doing what many years ago used fc be termed "talking through one'e hat." In order words they do not know what they are writing about. The three Maritimes have the distinction of having the iow- est per capita expenditure from all revenue, of any of the nine province. New Brunswick un- fortunately spends the most of the three, but even at that is almost one dollar below Quebec and Baskatchewai which are the next highest.

The list as follower- British Columbia. $38.89; Alberta, $20.87; Ontario/$i5.’77: Manitoba. |1491! Saskatchewan, 814.21; Quebec, $14.27; New Brunswick, 018.83: Nova Scotia, $13.04; Prince Edward fs- land, $1038.

It takes only a hurried perusal

of the abo"e to note that it has been the Western Provinces which have been "blowing in" their money 'on provincial adminfstra'- tion with British Columbia and Alberta the-most extravlllnt. But the third moat extravagant pro- vince-lo and beiioldf- is Ontario. when the criticisms some from. The natural comment on the part of a more lhrltimlr, would be for the Ontario or Ontarian editorial advisers to , produce economy within their own pro- vincial bounds before advising action towardtbat end in the Atlantic Provinces. tven Quebec

Canada’s Steady Climb

The steady but marked increase

in Canadals -.foreign trade for the year: ended March 31. 1935. had its inception in the early -months of 1983-34.

Total trade during the fiscal year.

1934-35 amounted to $l.l89,990.000Z imports accountng for $552,431_000 of this amount. and domestic ex- ports for $659,900,000.

The increase in the total trade of 1994-35 compared with 1933-34 amolifited to $173,537,000 Of 16.7 per cent.; the increase in imports to $88,632,000 or 20.4 per cent.. and domestic exports ‘to $00,551,000 or 18.9 per cent.

Empire countries accounted for

40.5 per cent. of the increase in Canada‘s total trade from 1933-34 to 1934-35 and fore‘gn countries for 53.5 per cent.

The Empires share in the in-

crease in domestic exports was 18.! per cent. and that of foreign coun- tries 2l.2 per cent.

Canada now enjoys a larger pro-

portion of the. world trade than it did in 1929, the last year of the MacKenzie King regime. ‘
