greater importance to the P901119 01 this province than the guilt or lnnoceliCe of the defendant ‘was dis- posed of iii the Prohibition Court yesterday. These factors the "131 Magistrate decided were immater- lal to the issues before the Court. and the evidence attempted to be submitted in this connection was therefore ruled out. There should, however, be other means of inquir- ing into the matter. The public in- terest, after all, is of more im- portance than legal technicalities. The questions raised by the defend- ant's counsel cast grave suspicion on the administration of the Pro- hibition Act under thc Lea Govern- ment, and these questions should be dealt with by ‘a properly quali- fied tribunal. If there has been political interference with the free course of Justice on the imrt of any member of the Government, or any other person, the public have a right to know. If there has been

Sentence will be imposed on Tuesday of next week.

Important New Official

Premier Bennett is determined that the country shall be run 0n business lines. The oppomtment of a Comptroller of the Treasury will make greatly to that end. The comptroller, who will. doubtless, be a man of special gifts and training, will be the most permanent official at the capital, for he will have his hand on all expenditures in all the departments. After Parliament has. voted the money he will follow

In other words, in i930 we exported ‘twenty- five times less butter than in 1925, and imported 470 times as much.

The conspiracy charge contained i000 counts and the maximum pon- alty he might incur is two years in prison and a $10,000 fine. On the Federal income tax counts the pen» slties are more severe; he is liable to a maximum sentence of 34 years ln prison and an $80,000 fine. He has admitted evading his income taxes for five years, 1925 to 1929, and wilful failure to file income tax returns in 1928 and i929.
