It is contend- ed, however, >1: iii-i couiitrics are not coin- parable. Uiiiii; to szze and our federal sys- tem, the cost of g-werziment in Canada is far greater per cap" than in Britain.

It is suggcstci the best wa of apprais- ing the impor: t our war ef ort is by as- suming that " l income this year will be $4._<OO.Cfi0_~ri0_ ill this deduct $1,000,- 000,000 to pay for t e 1st 0f government. \\'ar aetl at $500,000,000 for forces; $100,000,000 for .2 ihe air trai tlte rapatr in Britain. [rm securities now held buy back these securities m that Britain iiziy for ivhat she requires from Canada. . CXTQIIE of these repatriations cannot be estimazed. In the first six months of the war the 101a} was $~ 12.000000, and this was a direct deal iJi‘.\ cn the British and Canadian governments. Iliir from mid-March, repatria- tion is to proceed by private sale of these secur- ities by British holders to Canadian buyers. A substantial bii=i"e=s is (lerelopirig and it may well run to S: roooooc) this year. As for the e res of war expenditures, it is noted that the e-amate for the first seven months of the war \\'f‘l’¢ exceeded by t5 per cent and the estimate for the full year now beginning will probably be excceilctl :0 a like extent All this adds up to a total war expenditure, direct and indirect, of about 80.40.000.000. And it must come out nf an income, after costs of gov- ernment have been met, of 83.500.000.000. It is evident, here, that if Canada does as well as this, the government wiil he more than satisfied.

I\lr_ blclntyre interrupted the Opposi- tion leader in his sieccli on the budget Wednes- day night to inform him, the House, and the public in general that it was he, Mr_ McIntyre. who “first found gravel on the Island.’ That. Mr. McIntyre explained, was back in I928, and he had a report from the federal engineers t0 show for it. _ Mr. blclntyre has put forward this claim on Rural OccnElnllF, bu: unfortunately it is one ‘vhich m, afllftffl]: of rvpitfition can substantiate.

He was constantly extolling the superior quality of imported gravel, and Quoting au- thorities to show that the use of the “native" material (as one Liberal member called it last week) ivas only a waste of money. \Vhatever credit is due for the policy of de- veloping local gravel pits, it is to the McMillan Government and not Mr. McIntyre that it be- longs. Even as late as the I935 election cam- paigii, when the Borden-Charlottetown highway was under construction, the Patriot, Mr. Mc- Intyre's party organ, was declaiming: "There are road: in this Province cot/trad eviih imported growl flint utill last longer than any paced /ff_fjhfi'fl_\‘.l' the Conservative: are building, and tliry ‘tr-ill be than whm their road: crumble fa dial." (July 22, 1935). The highways the Conservatives were build- ing, largely at federal expense, included a stretch of solid concrete road which is not likely to crumble to dust for a good many years yet. And what of .\lr. Alclntyre‘; imported gravel roads which were to be everlasting? It was not long before he was digging up what was left of them and sub-grading with Island gravel in preparation for continuing the Conservative hardsurfacing policy; this time not with federal money however, but at our own taxpayers’ ex- pense. a- EDITORIAL NOTES n The roads are drying fast. and by Saturday should be fit for heavy traffic. i Ill I i Norway is giving the unthinking an inkling of the stiff time before us, before victory rests 0n our pennons.
