Production was the answer to Canada's problems and he felt the dominion should be importing British industries and a large iiiiiniier of people from the Brit- ish isles.

Mr. Benedickmn said he could think of nothing that would help Canada more than an increase in tlir price of gold in the United States.

readily understood. Defence Coumq

In his address to the jury, H, P- Mbflxflfll. defence counsel, said the title of the article, "Af- ter all we’ve heard" was a "mild description of what went on" at the home.

“l! W“ Purely e speculative COIIIIIICPCIuI venture in the lives of young Canadian: by capitaliz- "18 on the fears of these expect- ant mothers and by wringing from them the lest cent of their mon-

ey.

"They traded in more than fear. They traded in race, blood and nationality. The Standard has done a grand job for this Prov- ince in exposing this baby mar- ket and its proprietors. To cen- sure them for so doing would be to make this community a laugh- ing stock to 1h! people of Can- ads."

Counsel For Plaintiffs

F. W. Blssetl. counsel for the plaintiffs. referred to previous convictions against the Youngs

and the home under statutes ad- ministered by the Provincial Health Department.

"Acre these people to be blud- geoned again?" He asked. “News- papers have endeavored in this country to lake and create a, law

unto themselves-ihe right to say what they like. "But in this country we have

the right to make them come in- to court and justify what they say."

He said the rates at the home were "not. unreasonable whenolic considered the services rendered.‘

"Noteworthy among these was that it gave the mothers a chance to be free from their babies and the home took the chance of hav- ing to pay for the care of these babies for a long time. ,1 sub- mit, there‘: nothing to show they traded in the fears of these worn- en. There was nothing hidden from them. They knew thewhole situation.
