Some hon Members: “Go on"

Mr. Grant: “We have heard, Conservative

about the terrible plight of the _

mail couriers. They say the con. dition of these people is a scan. dai. That is what they said a. short time ago. and 1 believe they} were expecting a general election at that time. because the same thing took place in the last ses- sion before the 1930 election. At that time Mr. Guthrie of the Tory Opposition went so far as to move an amendment to the Post Office Act to provide that mail couriers should be placed in Ihe civil service of Canada. knowing that it could not easily be done.

Bennett's Letter

"That was the last session he- fore the 1930 election and, as I say. it was Hugh Guthrie who moved the amendment. Our hon. friends opposite mode speeches then exactly the same as their successdrs have recently been making on the some subject. but I notice that it was the younger

members who spoke. 111a old shell-backs who were here In I930 did not speak. It ivss the

younger members who put up the howl about the mall couriers. and they shed tears. just as their‘ predecessors did in 1930.

In that let- ter they stated that they had moved in the House the amend- ment to which I have referred and that it had been voted down by the Grits. _

"I read that letter and I may say that it was dangerous to meet a mail driver on the road at that time. That was the time the Tory member for Queens, w“ FIWIIUIIB on the platform. ‘Look at your milk cheques‘. Yes; 1 sawthe letter which these mall couriers received. But what hap- pened afterwards? As soon as the Tories gotinto power. the mall COUPWPS began to ask that they be put into civil service. The Tory Government then said. ‘We will have to do something with those fellows‘, and they threw almost all the mail contracts out for tender in a body. Times were get- ting so hard that the people were Stall/ms and could not get a dol- lar. Bennett spoke then of sound 111011633 He said, ‘This is sound money you are getting‘. but it was so sound you could not smell it. Well. these men lost their con- tracts or got them at a much re- duced figure. I know a man who had a contract for $1.100; when it was advertised he put in a tender for $450 and got the con- IITICI- again. and it remained at that figure until we raised it Io $1.100 two or three years ago.

II. Y. Stocks In ~Best Rally 0f Year

NEW YORK. June 1- (AP)- The stock market, during the last short week, enjoyed one of’ its best rallies of the year and. on balance. held a good net gain for the four session-S.

All securities exchanges sul- pended Friday In observance of Memorial Day and remained closed Saturday. Through June. July, August and September no Saturday sessions ivi-ll be held.

Bullish and bearish sentiment was pretty evenly split in Wall street. Optimists based their arguments partly on the big short

interest announced the week be- fore which‘ ma-ny felt. wars “over- dnne"; on the belief that the re- cent dive to lows since early 1945 called for a. substantial technical rebound, and on the idea that a possible economic letdown later in the year had been at least par- tially discounted marketwise.

On the other hand. dissenting conlingents held aloof or trimmed accounts due to skepticism over tax relief. labor legislation and the murky atmosphere surround- lng international affairs. A big batch of favorable earnings and dividends was viewed by these as "water over Ihe dam" and doubts ivere expresed regarding the maintenance of corporate pro- fits at anywhere near the i947 top.

Stronger Tone In Iron And Steel Scrap

CLEVELAND. June l-(API-A "stronger tone“ in the tron and steel scrap market uras yecorded today by the magazine Steel.

Prices fcr" scrap "show definite signs of turning higher” In Pitts- burgh and the east, said the trade publication, which also reported a continuance of strong demand for finished steel products. on \\‘IliIf'Il prices remain firm.

"Gray"' market operations In steel products “appear tapering off." said Steel. "Offerings now are reported at prices considerably under recent high levels. Extent of trading in this market is un- certain.

“Testimony at the Senate small business sub-commute hearing in- dicates tlic large aggregate tc/n- nage offered in this market is of’ the ‘daisy chain‘ variety with the same tonnagcs changing hands several times. Little evidence of illegal operations has been un- covered.” it continued.

Slvflllllflklllg operations were re- duced only slightly b_v the Memor- ial Day holiday. with most fur- naces maintaining normal sched- ules. Steels estimated national index tapered off one point to 95.5 per cent of rated capacity.
