The calling of a. special ses. sion to deal with unemployment, the voting of $20,000.00 for that purpose, the revision of the tariff, the exten- iion of Federal aid to agriculture and technical education, the increase by 5O per cent. of the appropriation for old age pensions-those surely con- stitute a most creditable, and alto- gether unprecedented discharge of preelection undertakings, by a Gov- ernment which has only been in of- fice since last August.

But even this is but a partial list of the Bennett Government's meas- ures for the promotion of Canada's development and prosperity. A n3_ tional fuel policy, the most compre- hensive scheme of the kind ever launched in this country, has been formulated and presented to Parlia- ment. An appropriation to aid in the transportation of wheat amounting to more than $i0,000.000 is forecast in the budget. The anti-dumping pro- visions cf the Customs Act have been enlarged and applied courage- Wsly for ‘the protection of Canad-

ian producers for the first time in .

On the other hand, he says that a nation which is perpetually trying to adapt its economic system to conditions which prove to be merely rapidly passing phases is like. ly to find itself in a state of chaos. ' Lord Herbert Scott gives figures t0 show where Great Britain excels in trade and employment, concluding that the future lies with the econo- ,mic groups which can command large markets, and he says that "the potentialities for all its units which a united British Empire holds out are almost limitless." The first duty of every nation must be to its own citizens, he admits, but continues: ffEnlightened self-interest will often dictate the sacrifice of an immediate advantage in order to secure a far greater in the future." His is a reas- suring statement of fact in a. num- ber that makes the reader realize the importance of the Empire in a ma- terial way and shows the advantage of membership in it.

The City Council is to be congrat- ulated upon the fact, reported at Monday's monthly meeting, that a larger proportion of tax arrears were collected this year up to May 3i than in any former year.

._-._. Are our contemporary's continued misrepresentations regarding the tax- ation measures in the Bennett budget inspired by the desire to cover up the Lea Government tax increase on gasoline, which it put into effect this month by Order-in-Council? v

Cana- dian Budget speeches had. unfor- tunately, degenerated into a mere slur-ring over the country's. financial position. Mr. Bennett, breaking with this unwholesome and undemocratic practice, gave the House and the country a complete balance sheet, a full and detailed, almost minute ex- planation of why and how and how much money was spent, of the rev- enues from various sources, of the

Railways, of the amount of borrow- ings and loans, and the reasons for them, and their status, of payments and receipts, and, of assets, active and non-active, of liabilities, and so on and so forth. The whole picture, complete in everydetail, is on Han- sard. It was all a remarkable per- formance. very typical of Mr. Ben- nett both in its industry and its con- scientiousness. _ _ _ -.__ We have repeatedly bdraiwn a-‘ten- tion lo the part played by Soviet Russia in recent disturbances throughout British India. Of Ilwh interference there is ample evidence. The International-Press‘ Correspon- dence, the organ ‘of the Communist International, recently declared: “We need in India tqlouud class pro- letarian ‘trade unions at a. feverish pace, intensely, everyday, and under all circumstances. . . . The pre paratiohs for a general political strike must be brought to the from. ...We mustrcusethemassca. . .
