Week after week passes and yet very little oi the really important business of the session has yet been transact- ed. And unlike our provincial Leg- islature with its lenten ‘bill oi‘ iare. the Dominion Parliament has many matters oi the utmost gravity that urgently demand its attention. Re- distribution oi parliamentary seats is one oi these, revision oi the Bank Act ls another, and still an- other is the budget. which has been expected and haii promised ior weeks past, but still awaits t.he fixing oi‘ a definite date ior Mr. Fieldings deliverance. The redistribution bill was due and expected last year. it had been than delayed as long aiter the oflicial enumeration oi the people as any previous measure oi the kind during vfive decades past. It is a. year latcr now and the iour western provinces which‘ have much to gain in representation have become impatient oi the un- usual delay. Nova Spotia, con- demned to a loss oi two members by the hard terms oi the Constitu- tional Act. is struggling ior reliei against the deprivation and the King Government seems strangely hesitant and slow in getting on with the redistribution job. The budget is at once urgent and ‘Happenings 0i The D ‘_ Week The Prince oi Wales arrived in Brussels this week irom London to attend the unveiling oi a memorial erected to express the thanks oi Great Britain to lBelgium ior Bel- gium's treatment oi the British troops in the late war.
