TUESDAY, FHBUAIIY $5, 1930 What Did Mr. King Mean‘? ‘ — The Canadian Press quotes Prime Minister Kmo as having said to the House of Commons: “Up tothe present time mam‘ of the Government have been- unable to discover a number of commitments to which the country has been obligated Every now and then we have felt that we have reached a point where we are aware of all outstanding obligations, but to our amazement every few days some new obligations come to the front and we find that in connection therewith the country has been committed to great expendfures." In the Department of Finance there is a very able Deputy Minister. Also a Comptroller of the 'l‘rcas1iry. Is Mr. KING suggesting that at any time 0r on any day since his coming into office these gentlemen could not have given him a completely accurate picture of the country's obligations? If so, then he is suggesting so1iie- thing which, to anybody with even elementary knowledge, seems impossible The implication of Mr- Kmcfs words as he used them, was that the previous Government committed the country to expenditures about which nobody knew anything. were secret, or perhaps sinister. What he must have meant, surely, was that That they there you are. may we say of peace and war, you can expect any kind pl trouble out if atkhe East. it? Butter imports in January amounted to 8,965 pounds, of which 8,456 came from New Zealaiid and 509 from the United States.

' - Empire Vs. U. S. Trade Figures of Canada's export trade for Janu- ary, issued by Mr. EULER last week in Parlia- ment. are an interesting study. January saw operation of our new trade agreement with the United States. This month. therefore, affords a good basis of comparison of the respective merits of the United States and British markets. _ \Vliat does the comparison show? It shows that while, in January, the United States was buying $20,000,000 worh, of goods from us, the United Kingdom was buying over $21-ooo.o00 worth. The United Kingdom alone. The whole of the British Empire bought much more than that. The Canada-United States trade agreement included cattle_ In January our sales of cattle to the United States were 9,445 head» a big gain over last January- On the other hand, our 1935 sales of cattle to the United States totalled 103.- 000 head, so that unless there be a considerable gain for the rest of the year, our position in this respect will not show any substantial change from what it was just prior to the agreement. Indeed, the quota provision in the agreement, applying to cattle, makes any great gain impos- sible. In the matter of other natural products, our exports to the United States in January were lower in value than they were a year ago. Wheat dropped in volume from 565,000 bushels to 87,- ooo bushels. And this drop occurred in the month when Canada was selling abroad-mostly in the British market-more than $6,000,000 worth of wheat. this as against about $4ooo,ooo worth in January of last year. With the Canada-United States trade agree- duced in Giornalc (Vltalia is that Britain has no particular interests in that country, and would be as well-off if not better with Italians in control. All that is essential is that Britain should secure territorial control ovcr Lake Tana and an ade- quate corridor joiniii this lake with the Sudan. and also over other Nile tributaries. It was a confidential document, however- and some one has betrayed the (iovernment in handing a copy to some one in Italy. Naturally the British Gov- eminent and members of the House of Commons are worried over the matter, not so much about the disclosures, which are really favourable. but over the fact that spies are having access to British data, 9K 9F 9K Referring to gambling cxpedicnts to help hospitals and other charities the London Spec- tator says : “It is a bad argument for voluntary medical services that, to exist, they must share the proceeds of gambling with promoters, crou- picrs, and punters, and a worse argument for gambling that it flourishes by involving hospitals and charities iii its own discredit. It has long been thought one of the advantages of the de- pendencc of hospitals and medical services on voluntary contributions that such a system pro- moted charity as \vcll as health. It appears now that it promotes gambling also; charity is scarc- ely the word for a. percentage of the gains made at roulette or chcmin-dc-fer. Nor did the qnes~ tions which engaged the attention of the court compel the conviction 'that the sole object 0f those who engaged in this charitable activity was the alleviation of pain and disease. Indeed, there appear to be more repellent diseases than those which lead to a hospital ward.” ‘It 9K 9k Part of the evidence in the Washington en- quiry into the purchase of the Canadian Gov- ernment steamer Margaret was not carried by the Canadian Press, and as it affects the credi- lllfilll 3 lllQlllll Old, Blllalll Slllllemillns Olll’ best bility of the witness and the reputation of Can- mllkfli Wltll “l!

From these facts the Ottawa Journal con- cludes : This coming Summer the Canada-United Kingdom trade agreement comes up for revision. Now it is an admitted fact that when the British delegates were in Ottawa negotiating the United ‘Kingdom agreement, one of the things which i11- fluenced them (it was- held over them skilfully and subtly) in yielding concessions was their thought of the United States. Always, like a shadow ovcr them, was the belief that if they didn't make an agreement with us, or an agree- ment that we liked, the United States would. And that, from their standpoint, would be bad. The position has changed. Next July, when Mr. KING or Mr. KING'S ministers arrive in London to revise the Canada-United Kingdom agreement, British statesmen will not be afraid of the United States. They won't need t0 be. on the contrary, they will be able to say-and they are pretty good bargainerr-that our United States argument or weapon has become some- what blunted. In other words, our United States turd 39 n trade bargaining thing» is no loriger face down.
