MACINTYRE, Cox and CLARK who have just returned. from affpicnic" to,Ottawa_ The excuse given by the powers-that-be is that the Federal Government must exercise iron econ- omy in the provinces, though it is not binding in Ottawa. itself, wheregthe Government voted $155,000 to buy a street corner property to im- prove the appearance of the city. The CAMPBELL Government is disappointed and» disquieted over the situation which has arisen- Unemployment is increasing through nolfault oftheii-sé-éxcept sense funobtainable.‘ 'It was‘ hoped the Federal Government, of which the junior member for Queenls holdsthe purist! strings,‘ would be easily induced at least to continue the road policy of its predecessorif it did not consider it advisable to authorize other public works, but the hope has turned out vain, and the delegation has re- turned defeated and discomfited. The question now arises, what schemes will the CAMPBELL Government devise to substitute for the hard- surfaced road projects? Public works of some kind must be initiated as soon as the snow flies, as the condition of thousands of unemployed will be a nrenace to peace, order and good gov- ernment. Now is the time to devise the necessary ways and means; “be prepared" being a good motto for governments as well as Boy Scouts. Separatist Scheme Peters Out Cheering news comes from the Ottawa correspondent of the Financial Past-o. Toronto paper strongly favourable to scrapping the B. N. A- Act as an Imperial statute—-to the effect that the constitution scrappers are fight- ing among themselves. They have “failed so far to advance materially the driye for agree- ment on procedure by which the B. N. A. Act is to be amended by Parliament." Moreover, saysthe Post correspondent, “out of the negoti- ations” (between the law oflicers of the Domin- ion snd provinces) “emerges the distinct possi- bility that, having agreed upon transferring the British North America Act from London to Ottawa (New Brunswick dissenting) the dele- gates to the present constitutional conference have exhausted their enthusiasm for reform. The present tendency is for the delegates to fashion a new strait-jacket for this country. The .new one difiers ‘from the old, but promises to be just as restrictive. "This tendency takes the form of insist- ence by oevoralof the provinces on placing prac- tically all important matters of jurisdiction in the class of amendments which will require unani- mous consent. The original intention was to restrict this class to so-called minority rights, but provincial delegates now want it to include, llso, solemnization of marriage, property and dvl rights and all matters of a local or private blasts. For the reason that practically all im- poi-tut social rcformr-social insurance, hours impinge upon property and civil rights, the point at 1581161 is regarded as being vital. . “Strenuous efforts, it'is learned, are being made by Dominion delegates to compromise this "issue in such a way as to obtain the same degree of constitutional freedom. For several days, feasibility of breaking down property and crvrl rights into units of jurisdiction has been ex- plored with a view to persuading the provinces to risk the chance of parting _wrth some of the power they now hold. Opposition, however, rs i strongly in evidence, chiefly from Quebec whose civil code is thought to he involved.” _ Highly encouraging also is the report that “the opposition of New Brunswick to all constr- tutional reform continues, The DYSART govern- . ' , ment does not desire any change in constitu- tional matters but if these must cpme, seeks to have all ordinary amendments subject to appro- val by seven ninths of the provinces, instead of two thirds as suggested by Ottawa and concur- s red in by most of the other provinces- “Originally," says the Post correspondent.

What a lot of dead orators we have heard in our day! ll! 5K 3K The result of the scrutiny into the voting in Ward Five for the City Council indicates clearly that there is something radically wrong with the Civic Election Act. It seems there is no provision made for a recount, and evidently the‘re is no penalty for negligence or neglect on the part of officials, as certain rejected ballots were not produced at the investigation, It would thus appear that there is nothing to prevent lEIlOt-bOX Stuffing and all sorts of irregular- rtres in connection with civic elections. The City Council owe it to the» citizens and to themselves to see that this state of affairs is remedied be- fore another appeal flies glad; to thtfelectorate. The Preacher tells us there is nothing new under the sun, but possibly there was no coin tossing when Ecclesiastes was written. One of the few things about which humanity up till now was certain is that if a coin be flipped in air no one can tell whether it will turn up head or tail, and that no sleight of hand will enable the flip- per to govern the fall of the coin- This is now shown to be a fallacy by a little apparatus ex- hibited the other day by the Physical Society at its annual show at the Imperial College of Science, South Kensington, London. It is a simple apparatus but it turns a chance into a certainty; moreover it has a. scientific value: it determines exactly the force of gravity at any spot on the earth's surface when a pot of oil is spun pn a phonograph motor.

The distribution for the remaining provinces was as follows: Quebec 94, British Columbia 49, Manitoba 32, Alberta 9, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick five each and Sas- katchewan one. The value of the products in 1934 was $17,159,000 compared with $15,017,000 in 1933.
