M. F. Tompkins, Traffic Manager Atlantic Region, Canadian National Railways, said today regarding the reductions, that the second propos- al made by the railway at a coli- ference of leading shippers in the provinces and traffic department officials, had been followed in the tariffs. This plan provided for an aver- age reduction of 19.6 percent in the rates from Saint John to Montreal, Toronto and London, Ont. This rate applied also to Moncton. Other points, the pro- portion of whose mileage to cent- ral Canada effected by the reduc- tion is smaller, get a slightly high- er cut, worked out on a percentage basis, but when the actual reduc- tion in dollars and cents is consid- ered the change in rate is the same for practically all shipping points. ' Under the new tariffs, -Mr. Tomp- kins said there had been a change in the number of rate groupings and the way in which the shipping points were grouped. The alter- ations affected for the most part inces more distant from central Canada. » it was said at the rall- way offices that the new tariffs on commodities had not. been receiv- ed as yet, so that only shipments which move under class rates are affected by the changes Mr. Tomp- kins discussed.

Previous to flie opening of the House, the cabinet held a meeting and it is understood that the min- isters approvctl a statement which Premier Baldwin proposed to make in reply to itlie Lahorite censure motion. _ ' ' ll -' u!‘ BALDWlN_'S REPLY . Premier Baldwin, replying said there could be no question of the House of Lords becoming a really. serious rival of the Commons. There could be no power there to make or unmake ministers, nor equal rights in finance measures. Dealing with the elective prin- ciple. he said it was exceptionally plausible on first sight, but that an elected upper house would immedi- ately becolne n rival of the Com- mons, and to that the government was opposed. The powers of elect- ed chambers must tend to become equal even if tlie upper chamber did not eventually become the stronger, iii-i iii tlic vase of the United States. - The Premier pointed out that no reform scheme ever brought tar- waril had entirely left out the hereditary element.
