IAIIIID UNANIMOUSLY

Uadar ihe heading “Something New at Ottawa." the ‘Ioronio Globe (liberal) says: "The people of Can- ada will be surprised—-and no doubt apaeably aurprised—-by news from Ottawa that Premier Bennett's

_ Unemployment Insurance Bill re-

solved its second reading with the unanimous approval of all partiet ill tba House. men 01d Parliamen- tarians do not recall another oc-

_ easlon when a Government meas- . use pccceeded so far unchallenged

i from ‘l! quarter."

The fact of ti?! matter is, oi

i emirae. that there was persistent

Liberal Opposition during the dis-

‘ mission on the bill, but that when

a showdown was called, and each

< member had to vote for or against . the measuzr, not one o! Mr. Ben-

nett's critics had the couraflfi

to

: stand by his gum. The Globe at- ? tributes this to a desire on the

i part of every member “to shl-fo 1H the big mform programme whieh is

to be the main work cf the present

Parliameftary session." But as the

' Sydney Post-Record (Independent) . points out, "no one is likely to be

' irliprnssed with the sincerity or ocms on sense of a Parliamentary

ment Insurance bill a dead letter. but nevertheless cast their votes in its favor to the last man. The time ',. ", if it ever existed. when kind of thing could let a p01- msai pq-ey anywhere with intri-

thlt iigeat people."

This appears also to be the real olhifll of the Toronto Globe: for its editorial above with the lilllliicant coal- : “There has been recolniticn

ers, which are likely to be legalized before very 1on8. will go far to en- able those in temporary financial embarrassment tocarry on without undue incumb or inconven- ience. But 8% per cent. government mortgage loans would put the ordinary money lender out oi bus- iness. ‘

If there were to be an early elec- tion Premier Bennett would not go to the Jubilee celebrations, and it is important he should be there be- cause ci inter-Imperial conferences that are to be held regarding quotas and one thing or another. He is looked upon as the Dolninions leader, and so long as he is Premier of Canada, he will be expected to lead at Imperial conferences.

It was proposed at the recent conference of the Sons of Temper- ance with Mr. Lea. and Mr. ‘Thane Campbell that the lash should be introduced for prohibition offences. That would be even a more rigorous measure. than holding farmers noses and compelling them to submit to taxation levies on everything tailg- ible and intangible as children are compelled to swallow castor oil.

In order to reduce relief expendi- ture, n ,‘ ., Ont, decided to publish the names of lcliei recip- ients weekly ln the local newspapers to deter persons, not requiring re- lief, from making application. But it reckoned without Hon. David Croll, Minister of Public Welfare, who has put his foot down strong- ly on the project, stating that it savoured of blackmail.

The manner irl which rmmber countries step out and in of the League ofNatioua leads to the be- lief that said members think the rules apply only to the other fellow. when Germany refused to be bound by the arms policy she withdrew. when Russia. refused to comply with the rules, she withdrew. when Japan went to war with Manchuria she withdrew. When Paraguay scores a near victory over Bolivia she withdraws. No doubt Italy would withdraw also had she not the ‘backing of France in her ils: of the “big stick" ‘against Ethiopia.

In 190G, the average value per acre of occupied farm lands in Canada. including improved and unimproved land together with dwelling houses, barns and all other farm buildings, is reported at $23 as compared with $24 in 1933. By provinces, theaverage values are as follows, with the values for 1933 within brackets: Prince Edward Is- land $4 ($82); Nova Scotia $2’! (m); New Brunswick $21 ($34); Quebec $34 (836); Ontario $41 ($38); Manitoba $17 ($16); Saskatchewan $16 ($16); Alberta $16 ($16)? British Columbia $60 ($68.)

in the register of the legislative and executive departments of the Coma-lo wealth of Massach Just published, appear the names oi seven former Canadians-licen- resentative Frsrik 1.‘. MacLean of Lowell, native of Prince Edward Is- land; Representative 1A0 P. Landry of Waiiertcwn, native cf ‘New Brunswick: Representatives Owen D. MadLellan of Belmont and Ger- ald D. Jorrm of Amherst, natives of Nova Scotia; Executive Coilhcili‘ lol- Edmond Cote, oi Fall River, native of Quebec, and Senator John DMMackay, native of Cape Breton. All oi them belong to the Republi- can party.

Investigation which the Domin- ion Department oi Fisherles is undertaking will seek tq find out what the iur seals have for break- fast. and other meals and in-be- tween lunches as they make their way up the British Columbia coast toward the breeding grounds at the Pribilof Islands in Bering Sea. The important purpose behind the in- vestigatloll is to ascertain the ex- tent to which the seals prey upon Canada's Pacific salmon runs, and, especially, the extent to which they prey upon Sockeyes. It is known oi course. that seals do eat some sal- mon but whether they destroy enough of the fish to do serious harm has not been definitely deter- mined. ‘

‘It h time. says the London Morn- ing Post, to point out to Mr. Mc- Geer and to some other municipal authorities in Canada, that there are two parties to a bond issue, and that neither party has the right to alter its terms without the consent oi the other. By mutual agreement the representatives of bondholders in this country have often foregone for a time their strict rights when adequate proof has been given of the desire oi debtors to fulfil their obligations. but the methods now proposed in Canada. are entirely different and raise an issue which affects most closely Canada's good name."

Just what degree of “discrimina- tion" Japan alleges that Canada exercises against her as yet to be shown. A mere adverse balance of visible trade is not, by itself, cn- ough to prove discrimination. Furthermore, Imperial preference must be taken into account as a fact that cannot be brushed aside. ‘The Ottawa treaties stand and must

ranged. The Empire holds together commercially and economically as a measure of mutual protection against less stable trade arrange- ments wlth other countries. More- over Japan has to remember that the trade ethics of her manufac- turers and exporters have not yet been brought into line with those of western nations and the lei-

For all Canada, the average wages per month during the sum- mer season of 1934 were for men sis as against e11 in lass, and for women $10, the same as in 1033.

, The value of board is estimatedeat

$15 per month for men in both 1934 and 1033 and at $12 per month for women in both ycars. Thus the combined value of wages and board amounted to $33 for men as oom- pared with s32 in 1033, and to $73, for women for both years. By prov- inces, the average monthly wages plus the value of board in the sum- ‘mer season icr men and women rc- spcctively were in 1934 as follows, with the figures for 1933 within brackets: Prince Edward Island $30, $21 (630, $21); Nova Scctia $35. $23 ($34, $33); New Brunswick $35. $21 ($31, $30); Quebec $30. $19 0U, Q18); Ontario $33, $25 ($32.

"Mines you never heard of." he added, ‘and tho "p0- tatou are hitting right into them. in big hunks and savage like." "Glad to hear it," said the Silent One, who has a long memory.

Naturally the overweight indivi- dual will want to know why ‘ phenol is so successful in rediuc- lng weight in some individuals. cupses skin eruptions in others, damages the her. t and kindneys in others, and already a number deaths have been recorded from its

use.

Your doctor will tell you that ordinary doses of other drugs will cause a, rash like scarlet fever, or,

penhaps, the lumps on the skin known as hives. It is along the same line as

asthma hay fever, and eczema. Why should 15 percent of the population suffer with hay fever in the Autumn and the other B5 percent have no synlipfbms through the ragweed poilen is entering the nose and eyes of everybody?

When dlnitrophenol agrees with, or is safe for the to use. it increases the rate at which the body processes work to such an extent that a raise in temperature-a real fever-elitists and this intense heat actually bums up the fat.

The drug should never be used until the usual methods of weight reduction—cutting down on food and increasing cxercisc—have been faithfully tried. In such cases the individual should consult his family 110C901‘. and if he advises its use, he will also closely watch its ef- fects.

The Perth Exposition with a wldc rural circulation, says: "The Ple- mier of Ontario and his Cabinet infused to accept the in- vitation of Lieutenant-Governor Bruce to the dinner at the opening 0i the Legislature. The dinner and other functions were cancelled. Orders for hundreds oi new dross- es were also cancelled. as the ladies had no use for them, and the store- keepers lost that much business. Hundreds of new slippers were not purchased, and mom business was lost. Orders for turkeys, chickens, meats and all the delicacies found lit such functions were likewise can- celled. More business lost to bus- iness people.

The royal commission to enquire into the operation of British arma- ment firms should prove of great and general interest. Naturally the scope oi its enquiry is confined to the national finld and one of the main charges launched against the arms industry is that, in the worse practices alleged, it is international in omrzliioll, fomentillg suspicion and arousing alarm for its own Drofit. Little that is definite and useful can be elicited, save by de- duction, in these mattzrs.

Many farmers were under the impression that the Marketing Board would establish minimum prices to be paid them at the dif- ferent shipping points. Because of the different freight rates and heater charges involved it does not seem possible to fix a uniform mill- imum price atushlppirlg points. If we attempted to do so those with the lowest freight and heater char- ges would get first preference in making sales. while those handl-

From this 34c per bag must be deducted the cost of the bag, about ‘I cents, the loading charges and the dealers handling charges. In our humble opinion those three items should not exceed 12 to 13 cents per bag and should netthe producer from 21 to 23 cents per bag. Using Tlgnlsh or Souris freight and heater charges the net value will be slightly less. If it is pos- sible to increase the price from time to time such increase should be added in full to tho producer M the freight and heater charges are a- fixed amount. i

Ii the farmers will make a memo oi those fixed charges, for future reference, they will be in a position to check up and see if they are get- ting a proper share cf the selling price of their potatoes. We require their full cc-oprration lrl this re- spect if the marketing scheme is to be of any value to them.
