CARL SAIGEON, The Thornhill Auctioneer (To Sell Out Wheat?) The announcement of a federal grain board suggests that Premiu- Bennett proposes to adopt..Mr. “anx- ford Evans suggestions. If so, then the creation of a board will be fol- lowed at an early date by the adopt- ion of a domestic price independent of the world price. This has been the case in the United States for many months. Wheat might be worth 80 cents at Winnipeg, but sale of Canaâ€" dian grain might be proceeding to Britain or other markets at the pre- vailing Liverpool rates, which might be as little as 70 cents'a bu'shed for No. 1 Northern. The next few months will likely be 5 a critical period in regard to Canada’s 1 Wheat stocks, and, less directly, in ‘ regard to the government’s political!I reputations. If a substantial quan-g‘ tity of wheat can be moved, and the!t excessive carry-over reduced, the:E western farmer’s anxiety about the ] glut of Wheat will be relieved. There ‘ will be good prospect of better world ( wheat prices, also, if the surplus canl oe absorbed. Moreover, the figures for Canada’s export trade in the next few months will be materially imâ€" proved, and the earnings of the Cana- dian National, the Canadian Pacific, and other Canadian transportation and steamship lines will go up by leaps and bounds. These developments will materially assist in the creation of an optimistic and satisfied frame of mind which all politicians on the gov- ul'nm'ent side like to encourage on the eve of a general election. (Sustained Test of Motion) The government had no difficulty in defeating the “want of confidence” motion introduced by Hon. Ian Mac- kenzie, (Liberal, Vancouver) which condemned the government for its remedies for the unemployment situa- tion. ‘ The debate lasted from Mon- day evening to Wednesday afternoon, and the motion was defeated by a vote of 93 to 69. All members of the Co-operating Groups voted with the Liberals, except A. M. Carmichael, Progressive member for Kindersley. Ah-‘InD-hflIâ€"AAv-hrn It is obvious that if the federal grain board sold much Wheat at 70 cents for which it had paid 80, a. loss would be sustained which would have to be met out of federal funds. The value, however; of disposing freely of the existing stocks at the present time probably outweighs any disadâ€" vantages of thet kind, in the mind of Mr. Bennett and his colleagues. The difficulty about this \vas that it meant allowing prices to fall; and the government was anxious to avoid a decline in Winnipeg levels. Mr. Evans said, in effect: “Bonus the western farmer by pegging’ prices, if you like: that is a matter of fed- eral policy. But don’t expect our customers in other countries to foot the bill.” He advised the goverm ment to maintain its domestic price if it wanted to, but be sell its sur- plus abroad at market prices, making up the difference out of the federal treasury. , tmarket of wheat, the financial burden of “stabilizing” the Winnipeg wheat market, were all contingencies or occurrences which had to be faced, unless a. drastic \change of policy were adopted. (Not‘ Confined to Opponents) The criticism of the recent policy was not confined to polit:cal oppon- ents. Sanford Evans, Conservative leader in Manitoba and a noted grain authority, became aiarmed over the way in which world customers of our wheat were turning to other sources for their supplies, and came down to Ottawa about six weeks ago to urge the government to start selling its wheat more freeiy. The “Canadian Grain Board” will have power to buy and sell, store, handle, etc., all grains: but in its early stages it will no doubt confine its activities to wheat. The Wheat problem has been facing the federal government for several years, some- times developing symptoms of crisis, sometimes easing off again, but al- Ways present. 0f recent months it began to look very serious, and a feeling prevailed that only a. third light crop on the North American continent could avert the worst wheat congestion in the history of the country. The, possible loss of world markets, the loss of revenue for Canadian railways and steamship lines, the loss of much of the export ways preser began to k feeling} preV light crop The leading announcement of the week was the proposal to create a federal grain board. Until the reso- lution is debated in the House of Commons, and the actual legislation introduced and explained, all corm ment will of necessity be of an un- official nature. At the same time the circumstances leading up to the proposal are so well known, and the general intention of the govern- ment, that one is not likely to go far wrong in anticipating by a few days the general trend of the legislation. 1 By Wilfrid Eggleston THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILIi,I ONEARIO Committees both in Commons and Senate are working away now, though nothing sensational has yet come out of them.

Sir George Perly, who was leading the government at the time, was obvious- ly caught somewhat off guard, and was unable to make a detailed reply to the allegations and criticisms of Hon. Ian Mackenzie.

The number was only 12,476; and as there were several thousand deportations, the net gain to the coutry was still smaller. In 1913, the year when the largest immigration to this coutry was recorded, the number which came in was 402,000 odd.
