At least. one of them has worked out the problem of building the Great Pyramid of Egypt in modem England, which is said to liiivc- taken 100,000 men twenty years- to build. Nowadays 21,366 men would be required to erect the pyramid in the same length of time. The cost would be about $330,000,000 -enough to build a city for 230,000 The world has advanced in mechan- ical ingenuity; the progress of science has been marvellous; but Art and Culture move in cycles of their own and are dependent on factors other than material prosperity and the de- velopment of labor saving machinery. The time may come when the forces of nature will be harnessed to do all ful lf we shall ever succeed in finding a royal road to artistic culture. We need to bear this in mind every time we are tempted to congratulate our- of our age. The novelty and utility of these achievements tend to obscure the fact that there-_are other and finer things io be enjoyed in life. The musical culture requisite to provide one’s own entertainment at home is a better investment than the most ela- borate radio or phonographic equip- ment: It is better- to be able to read good literature, as Abraham Lincoln rcad it in boyhood, by the flickering fire-light in a rude log cabin. than ui dawdle over cheap literature in tht- most luxurious modem surround- ings. The best that can be said for mechanical improvements is that they give us more time lo devote to the , of Hon. Peter Keenan, Minister of Labor. that unemployment was a mat`-* emments only. Another resolution called attention to 'the fact that there was a greater number of men and women unemployed in the western provinces at the present time than at any period during the past five years. This problem, ~tl1e resolution declared, was further complicated by the immigration policy of the Domin- Premier King, on his return from the West, was asked il he intended to take action similar to that adopt- ed by President Hoover in the United States for the stabilization and stim- ulation of busines, to give employ- _ ment to labor and maintain wages. The Premier’s reply was that there was no need of such action in Canada, where there was no unemployment and where the most prosperous con- ditions prevailed. He has however gone so far as to promise to take into con- _ sgdemtgon M,-_ Mosher; timely sug- lucies for facts wherever it suited his gestion of a conference of labor and other interests to consider the situa- tion, but in the meantime affairs are moving to a crisis. If the Prime Min- ister has any influence to hearten Canadian trade and industry it is to be hoped that he will now exert it to the utmost. He has been criticised. and justly so. for busying himself with political speechmaking in which misrepresentation of the statements of Hon. R.. B. Bennett on the tariff question have taken the place of any constructive policy calculated to re- store public confidence. He has still the opportunity of rising above petty politics by grappling with the unem- liiiiabiwnls- |Paswf of st.

I-Ie had little to say about his western tour, or touching Liberal prospects there. But he spoke at length defending the right of the that neither _a_very high nor a very low - tariff is desirable and in that par- ticular, Mr- Bennett the Conscraiive leader, can agree with_him.._ ` i Mr. King put forward the discred- ited claim that. the ,debt of _the Do- minion is being rapidly _re_duoed. This is based on_ the fallacy that the Na- tional Rallway debt_fo,rnis no part of Canada's indebtness. Nobody eri- cept Liberal partisans who want to believe it _would. credit that conten- tion for a moment. He ,alsoclaims that taxation is being_red_uced, and cites of the _reductoin in letter post- age as “reduced taxation,’_' which is not true. _ __ _ A tax is a rate of duty oiiincome or ! property, or on ‘imported merchan- ‘dise, hence we speak oi’ customs and excise taxes. Postage on 'letters is payment for service rendered, and is in the official publications of the King Govemment.`The' payment a traveller makes for his railway ticketfl or for the cahiage of freight is not a tax, any more than letter postage_ m_ - _ But Mr._I{ing was passing off fal- purpose. The _revenue 'from customs excise and incometaxes-all our big itaxes-_all our big_ taxes in fact~arc_ [_ much larger than they were when the King Gove_r_nment` assumed ofiice and prove greatly increased taxation but he would have his followers believe' that taxation is_`being' reduced. Wei can imagine the giib`taiker laughing in his llleeve_ as he states how eager- his followers drink down the delicious delusion. _ _ _ ' |` The Premier no doubt realised that_ London is far distant from Prince_ Edward Island. Hence he could in- dulge in another little fallacy that he would not care to repeat in Charlotte- town. Here it might bring a blush to mantle the cheeks of his faithful henchmen, but,in London he was re- ported as follows: ' _ ' _ _ One of his, first efforts, he said'-~ waa to seo. that everyprovince in _ Canada _was represented in -his - Cabinet. This he succeeded in ' - doing, although it was necessary - to elect the Alberta._ Minister in. the Province of Quebec. Did the Premier forget Prince Ed- ward Island? Or did he think it is no longer a Province of the Domin- ion? Anyway he took _away even the forecastle member of his Cabinet which at first he hadbestowed. Per-, hops the Hon. John E. Sinclair M. P., or one of his Liberal colleagues, or mayhap, Premier' Saunders, will throw further light upon this particular fal- lacy cherished by the Prime Minister of Canala.
