The reason this ycar was on account of the twain-await no; transfer of freight from one guagc to another causes unnecessary iii- convcmence, delay and ‘expense, and is a serious handicap to farmers. shippers and business interests generally, especially so in connec- tion with the handling of perish- able products, and.

Harding, formerly governor of tii-e federal rcscrvc system of=tlie Unit- ed States and now president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. gave evidence. The members of the committee arc practically (iivideil into tiircc groups. Onc taker the orthordox view of the Canadian bankers that present system "fulfills all thc functions for which the United States federal rcscrve batik-z were brought into existence. namely. to provide for an adequate distri- bution of money and credit th, ' ugli- out the various sections oi/ that country-Eastern. Western central. Southern and so enable private onsl national banks. which arc not part of a coherent zstom, to finance when local slioiingcs unusual large demands occui. The Hon. l-i. H. Stevens this morning represented that group and asked most of the questions. Mi‘. Loon Ladner. South Vailcouver, who most- largely represents his own views in that respect. has an idea that a syistcm based on the U. S. federal reserve system would sup- ‘plcment and strengthen i the ‘ pres-- .cnt system. »l‘-Ic has been quite in- sistcni in that view since enteritis; ‘t rl ingot. 1, fngihlg radical group.‘ which in ‘ludcs 1- T 5D .01“ line labor members and the entiic lprogressive list though seeking for "reform." far exceeding what is iii- .vclvccl in the federal reserve sys- item. nevertheless regard the latte." as a step ln thc right direction in bettering labor and rural condit-, ‘ions through the stabilization of prices and interest. Mr. Harding in his replies this mcrning put a decided “ci-imp" particularly in progressive ideas. He stated that there had been more bank failures in thc United States during thc last five years than cv- u‘ before in its history. adding that “you cannot legislate sense and prudence into every banking man.“ In reply to a question as to whether thc system had an effect in stabilizing prices and business conditions he stated that in view, of the many and diversified inter- ests of the United States affected by banking it was difficult to ans- wci. It was a factor hc said. but not an important one, and in thaii he agreed with secretary of stoic Mellon. n statement from whom tvor. read by Mr. Sicvcns. The fed- eral system oi‘ banks had no poliiyv respecting mergers. Everything over there ivas regulated by competition among bunks. Mi. Woodsworth pointed out that there was no regional system in Canada outside of Montreal and Toronto. the entire west and ex- treme cast being in the hands, s0 to speak, of those ti r. cities. Of what lic understood of thc Canadian banking system Mr. Harding held flint a federal reserve system such as they had in the U. S. would be impossible hcre. He as- sumed there was competition in the west among banks his} us there was in Ontario-and Quebec, and statrd later on. in reply to another ques- tion as to the adequacy of the Can- adian system to supply‘ thc finali- cial [needs of Canada. that in fin- nncial circles in the U. S. he hail never heard a word of criticism of it but rather the opposite. As an instance taking the lfhl‘ five or six years thc extreme peak‘ of advances to bunks by the fed- eral reserve banks in time oi‘ dirci-t need was $300,000,000 while ciiriiidii the average of about e125.- 000,000 per annum from the treas- ury board (cn sound liquid assem was in proportion of Canada anzl the U. S. in banking transactions and other ways. many timcs more in the former than in thc latter. In connection with the unem- ployment situation in the U. 8.. he threw out a suggestion made by thc U. S. Secretary of Labor. who hail made a special study of the situi- tion, that if governments through- out the world adopted it. it would greatly improve continuity and steadiness in employment.
