tlated by the Bennett Government last year at Ottawa, is evident from the fact that the month of August saw a heavy increase in exports to theUnited States. The total value was $17,754,000 compared with $12,- 233,000 in August last year, a gain of $5,521,000 or 45 per cent. The July increase was 43 per cent. The largest item was newsprint valued at $5,-

If Mr. do valera. “y. the Spec- tator, is intent uponsnatchlng an advantage st the polls, now is his

sible for him to deceive the country about the consequences of his econ- omic policy, but that cannot con- tinue indefinitely. Grievances are accumulating, and it will be the business of the new Opposition to expose the true causes.
