Austin’s Drug The compression strength of a concrete block is partly determined. by its solidity. A prOperly tamped 10 inch. concrete block should weigh approximately» 70 pounds. All of our blocks are properly tamped and material carefully proportioned. Should a block weigh say 60 pounds and 800 are used for the foundation of a building (the most Vital part of any structure) that foundation lacks 8,000 lbs. or 4 tons of material.

Who Care é‘rden PHONE 87 Review’tof Recent Session of the Federal Parliament 1 An amendment was made to the Food and Drugs act, circumventing ‘paten‘t medicine vendors WHO have been advertising remedies for serious ailments with which no patent medi- cine can be of use. These remedies ‘Vare prohibited under the Patent iMedicines act, but were being- sold .under the Food and Drugs act. The Jamenrdment shuts them out alto; [gather and prevents Charlatans from {raising false hopes of recovery for épeople suffering from such danger- lous ailments as cancer, which no con- coction can help and may only en- danger. RAILWAY AMALGAMATION ens, adopted by the prime minister, but having stirred up arhornets’ nest both are trying to get rid of it. The investigation revealed such appalling industrial conditions that it swept along and nobody could stop it. The session has ended, there is reams of evidence, but the enquiry is unfinished. Cabinet ministers held up their hands in horror at the sweatshop and other damnable practices, but al- though the committee sat for months nothing seems to have been done about it. Children are still working from dawn until dark in sweatshops, girls are still being employed for $3 a week, men and women are still be- ing exploited in half a dozen trades. The answer given is that the com- mittee hasn’t heard both sides of the question. It will resume its sittings in September as a royal commission. It will go to the maritim-es and in- vestigate the fisheries and then re- turn to Ottawa and continue other enquiries. Western members are pressing heavily for an enquiry into the gasoline situation. Hon. Charles Stewart showed a spread of 9% cents per gallon in gasoline prices in Ed- monton and Ottav\va, though the gaso- line is transported about the same distance from the refineries Weak Radio Report The radio committee has complet- ed its work and made a milk and water report. It recommends the ap- pointment of a general manager un- der the commission and a depart- mental enquiry during the recess of parliament. There is still a. sub- stamtial balance unspent from the lees collected from radio users, but it has not been turned over to the commission, which needs funds to ex- pand its programs in accordance With popular demand. An attempt to move in the dime- LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO .1 9 :3 4 tion of amalgamation of the Canla-' Idian National and Canadian Pacific irailways was frustrated by the Lib- eral opposition. The minister of rail- ways brought in a bill to provide for -co-operatiorn between the Canadian National and the Canadian Pacific railway express companies. Co- Ioperation is one thing but this bill proyided for the incorporation of a -company to be known as. the Canad- ian Railway Express Company. A second bill was to be introduced d0â€" Iing the same thing with telegraphs, incorporating the Canadian Railway Communications Company. In fact of the determined protests of the opposition the bills. were withdrawn. It meant at the outset the dismissal of about 25 per cent of the employee's of the express and telegraph compan- ies; Another move in the great five- year plan of the prime, minister to end unemployment. The Supreme Court brought in a decision which has the effect of cur- tailing the power and independence of the tariff board, a body which Mr. Bennett created himself which was to have judicial background. Instead of amending the act to give the board the powers it needed when it was found there was some doubt on the matter, the prime minister sent the case to the Supreme court, which de- cided that the board had not these powcrs, and their decisions were in error in certain cases. Curious, that when the board’s decisions raised the tariffs they were good in law, in fact andgin politics, but when they rais- ed tariffs they were bad in law, in‘ fact, andâ€"well. well, this is a. matter: for the Supreme court. The logical,‘ sensible, statesmanlike attitude would have been: if the act doesn’t give the board the powers intended, parlia- ment shall amend the act. It was a case of'the board was made for the act and not the act for the board. Stop Australian Flour F. G. Sanderson, South Perth, Ovn- tario, Liberal whip, by sheer persis- tence moved the Government to live ‘up to its own gospel. Recalling that on eve'ry possible occasion imports ‘were shut out if they competed with ‘Camadian manufactures, Mr. Sander- son broke the news to the minister of trade and commerce that shipments of Australian flour were coming into Canada. He was put off by vague ‘replies but day after day Mr. San- derson and the Australian flour pop- ped up at question time, until the government did take action, cabled to Australia and finally announced there would be no more such flour importâ€" ed. The government which was to make the tariffs fight for the farm.- er over-looked one of the very few cases where the farmer could get some protection. Penitentiary Mess The penitentiaries mess was again aired. The minister of jus- l tice himself admitted that disturb- * ances were of monthly occurrence, . and that he had dispensed with the ‘ present warden. On the last day of the session he made a speech which would have clarified the sit- uation considerably had it been made a year before. There is still some sticky sentimentality about the treatment of convicts, some of SEP'E'.8 all sense of decency, but the public outcry has brought about many l needed reforms. The Gib report on the harbors has‘ gone into the port of missing docu- ments. It is pigeonâ€"holed in the! ministry of marine and now and then the minister takes it out, reads it,l sighs and puts it back, and does nothâ€"l ing about it. i The minister of national revenue sought to put through a drastic amendment to the customs act, 1e- galizing the seizure of any automoâ€" bile or other vehicle carrying- liquor nr other illegal goods. The Liberal opposition fought this at once. Hon. Charles Stewart cited a case of a young man taking out his father’s whom are dangerous men, lost car without permission, giving a f stranger a lift; the stranger had a bottle and the police found it and the 1 car was confiscated. That amend- ] ment was finally toned down and. the 1 innocent owner of a car can go to the courts for redress. Some Liberal 1 members suggested the adoption of , the American rule, permitting $100 1 worth of goods entered by tourists ,free, but were unable to get the minâ€" 1 ’ister to agree. , IElections‘ Effect \ The result of the provincial elec-‘i ions in Ontario and Saskatchewan had a marked effect on parliament.l It was realized that what the twoi provinces said in June, the countryi will say next year, or earlier if the opportunity offers. Immediately after the elections Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King called this to Mr., Bennett’s attention and challengedl him to go to the country, but Mr.vl Bennett refused. The opposition‘ leader planned a want of confidence motion but the business of the House was so heavy that he waived it. Mr. King‘s final words were: I “It is perfectly obvious that the administration no longer enjoys the confidence of the country. . . . l I Had I proceeded with the motion : I had intended it should be the last motion of what I believe and hope will be the last session of this par- ' liament. Should I be mistaken and should there be another, I shall make it the first motion of the new session. The prime minister might well advise us that this session will , be followed by dissolution. . . . . .v If parliament Should not be dis‘ i i solved and this government should come back and ask the House to vote supply for the year ending l March 31, 1936, I wish to say that > the opposition will do all in its 5 power to prevent this government obtaining further supply." The House adjourned on Tuesday, 5 July 3, having been in session since i Thursday, January 25, a matter of i 105 working days. It was the heav- iest session in years, and members i carried on morning, afternoon and - night. The prime minister’s health r was good, but Mr. King suffered the ; aftermath of a previous illness and Robert Gardiner, the U.F.A. leader, ‘was quite ill throughout the session. Mr. King and Mr. Gardiner carried on their legislative duties despite the scrious handicap of ill-health. Canadians have come to regard the Canadian National Exhibition as the music festival of the year especially in the matter of famous hands. This year the superb organization of Kneler Hal, the Royal Military 'School of Music in England, will be the feature attraction.
