I.n Eastern “Canada there was an increase of 48B cars owing to the increased movement of grain, merchandise and miscellan- eous freight.

they break one anothers heads, then burn the pillage, and then the battle is on in earnest. The excit- ability cf the national temperament plays a big part in it all."

Sir Henry was asked whether ‘complete autonomy would not re- flect on the economic position of the Empire as a whole. He denied this.

i India. Pays No Tribute

“The phrase “The brightest jewel ' in the Imperial diadem‘ has no re- : ference to revenue. India. pays no-

thing by way of tribute each year to England. There seems to be some misapprehension on this point. Let

me give you an example. A Can- ‘adian and an American were talk- iing recently. The Canadian asked whether the American was going to establish s. branch factory in the Dominion. The United States man, thought it would be a good thing for trade, "but I'm not going to pay tribute to King George." The Can- adian said he was sure no such im- Dost existed. He, at any rate, had never hcard of it.

The position in India is the same. England gets interest on loans made t0 India. but that is all. ‘lsiie de- ‘iemilmilnii " from Cfiese loans are used for the advantage or 1n. dia. Say one million pounds arc lent. The interest on that at five per cent. comes to fifty thousand flmlilfilly- 58y a railway is built and the revenue is one hundred and fifty thousand. That leaves two thirds for use in relieving the tax- payers.

mierrins to the financial assist- ‘mce Riven the western pmvlnqgs by the Dominion in meeting their New York obligations, Mr, Bennett said this was no indication of their "internal insolvency." ‘They are not bankrupt," l” assured m; House. They had contracted loans payable in New York in gold and because there existed no free gold market in Canada, they werg un- able to secure it. The Dominion

1111118 our whole financial struc- ture." _

Canadian municipal, provincial. federal and industrial interest and sinking fund payments in the New York money market aggregated $1,- 000,000 a day, iiaid the Prime Min- later. This, in his opinion, was the most potent reason why Canada could not abandon gold backed cur- rency.

Opposition Applause

For almost 45 minutes the Prime Minister held the undivided atten- tion of o. full House. Whcn he re- sumed his seat, he drew as much applause from the Opposition as ‘from his own followers. It was a subject dear to his heart-finances, credit and banking.

“I m not an economist," Mr. Ben- nett said, "but s'nce September lust I have been dealing with a real problem-maintaining the credit and financial integrity of Canada-fwd I know exactly what at least the men we owe say. And after all, the man you owe is very often the man who has somethini! to say about the situation."

Reference was made to the fam- ous Sunday night when announce- ment was made Great Britain had abandoned gold. The Canadian Gov- icmmeiit had to make a decislon— whether to follow Great Britain or ‘retain gold. “The statement I made," proceeded lVir. Bennett. “was that the people of Great Brit- ain could determine what they were to do but we would continue to meet our obligations in. gold where we had promised t0 pay l" gold, We had to do that or our credit was gone. Upon what we sad that night, depended the cred- it of this country.”

Investigation of the credit sys- ‘tern, Mr. Bennett said, would be

lconducted by a commission, the na- ,

ture of which would be determin- ed, by Parliament. But he opposed a. resolution sponsored by G. G. Coote, U. F. A. (MacLeod) which would empower the parliamentary banking and commerce committee to undertake the probe at the present t'me. The Prime Minister agreed with Ian MacKenzie, Lib. Vancouver Centre, there was insuf- ficient time before the end of the sesion tomndertake the work and he doubted if the committee pos- sensed the technical ability to as- sume a. task of such vast propor- tions. Mr. Coote's resolution wa talked out.

European Trip On

NEW YORK, N. Y., Mar. 1—(By The Canadian Europe may be paid for after they are taken under a deferred pay- ment plan announced today by the Cunard Steamship Company. The Cunard Line's plan, which is the first of its kind to be adopted by a steamship company, calls for a 25 per cent down payment- b61010 sailing and monthly instalments after the trip is taken.

In its announcement, the com- pany points out that the Cunard and Anchor Lines have felt the depression and that the new plan is hailed as the “panacea for the ills from which the shipping _indus- try has been suffering for the past two years."

The plan becomes effective im- mediately, and the 8,000 agents of the company have been supplied with complete infonnatlon. In most cases, according to the com- pany, no co-makers or indorscrs will be~ required. The interest charge will be 8 per cent a year. The arrangement calls for a mini- mum loan of $1044, and the max- imum 0688. Payments may be made over periods from four to twelve months.
