in The Fiat Goes Forth l

As we predicted from a perusal be- tween the lines oi our contermporarys editorial remarksanent the vacant Bursar-ship at Falconwood Hospital, a political appointee to the position has already been chosen, with or without the consent oi the Exec- utive Council as a body, and the re- quirements for the position are being changed to suit the said nominee's particular qualifications. Th1; is ev- ident from the editorial announce- ment in Saturday's Patriot, which, bythawayJulLvboarsoutthechas-ge made by Eon. Mk. Butler that the provincial adminisu-atlon ia being dominated by an autocrat oi the Iussld-be-diluseolini type.

Cmelder, for sample. lbs laudat- I7 inferences to “the man who h lo be appointed at the next meeting I the Coimcil." This phrase is Pdf- blw the most extraordinary that has bued from an inspired government organ since the Province secured the right o! democratic repruentation in Parliament. Mist aumority has the Liberal organ. Or the Presniar him- ldl for that matter, to say what the -@lmcil will ‘do or will not do at a meetimwliiohhasyettobeheld? Baa the Council no will oi its own?

K Ind i8 decisions all "out and dried“ in advance? Or is the an,- nouncezneut above quoted intended as a hint to dissatisfied Council mnnbon that they must come pre- pared to knuckle under to the ipei flail oi the Ibos"? In any event, we we new Assured in advance oi the Council meeting and irrespective oi sny opinion that body may hold that a certain prospective nominee with alleged qualifications in medicine and dentistry-and apparently without snyqualiiications otherwise-will be appointed bursar, or business custod- lan, oi Falconwood, “at the next meeting oi the Council." So that's

that.

Whether the said appointee‘: pro- lsssional qualifications are such as to entitle him to a raise in the $1,000 salary of his predecessor, or whether his skill in medicine and dentistry, minus his business inexperience, are considered to be worth only the aiore- said ‘$1,000 a year, has not yet been divulged.

In any event, the meaning oi the’ Liberal organs statement is unmis- takable. It means, to Liberal party supporters and Government members who may have opinions oi their own in the matter, that the iiat has gone forth. Sir Oracle, through the party press, has spoken: and when he opes his mouth let no dog bark!

It means, in a. wider than partisan sense, what a certain American plum- er& meant when he said. oi the an- ticipated reaction oi the public to a notorious iinancial scheme then under way: "The public be damned."

American Investments

points out, it is more than likely that one eflect oi the steps which m. Bennett has promised 1° "ks will be the investment oi more Am- erican capltal in Canada. Our tarifl. so iar as we have used it, has work- ed that way in the past. Where it h“ shut out American goods, it has en- couraged the American manufactur- ers to build iactorlas in Canada and to make goods icr the Canadian market on the Canadian side oi the boundary. These iactories have em- ployed Canadian workers and these workers have spent their earnings in Cali-

Prisons For Sale

steps are being taken by the Brit- ish government to dispose oi eight- eon more prisons which are no 1on8- I‘ needed. Already eight have been closed, and this will make a total oi twenty-six in England and Walu to be removed irom active service since the Great War. In making this announcement in Parliament the Home Secretary explained that: “More and. more-oi these plaou are becoming unnecsofl-fl’. partly ‘be- cause we have fewer wrongdoere, and partly because we keep people out oi such places unless it's absolutely noc- essary to put them there."

This would bearemas-kelble showing under any circumstances, but it is more remarkable in view oi the tact that it was expected that liter-war conditions might tend to an increase in crime, and even more remarkable when compared with the experience ‘oi numerous other countries in the period which has elapsed since the armistice. The iact that the’ prison population oi Great Britain is 1m than two-thirds. oi the total record- ed before the war is the most not- able when the industrial deprasion and the increase in unemployment are taken into consideration.

The Acting Premier

During the Western absence oi Mr. Bennett, Sir George Perley is the Acting Prime Minister. Ilhis, surely, l5 as it should be. For although time does not seem to wither nor custom stale Sir George, he is one of the eld- or statesmen oi Conservatism, with all of the wisdom oi experience in the problems oi public liie. More than a quarter oi a century‘ ago, he entered the House oi Commons, and in the years that have intervened he has served Canada with ability and distinction in both domestic and Im- perial spheres.

Today, at an age when most men seek rest irom the conflict. and with the material things oi life to give him leisure, Sir George keeps ob his armor, willing to share with younger men the responsibilities oi oflce. It is something, one thinks, which all oi us should honor. Something which, in this day c! an apathetic democ- racy, sets, a shining example that is worthy oi praise and emulation.
