J. Gar- ;and, U.F.A. Bow River, who branded it as entirely inadequate in scope and in amount of benefit, and Jean Fran- cois Pouliot, who condemned it as useless because in his opinion it was‘ unconstitutional. The Act wasi strengthened in several particulars} while passing through the Commons, one amendment giving the Insurance ()ommiSSion power to sue and collect from defaulting- employers who failed to contribute to the fund. The attempt of J. S. Woodsworth to make the action of the commission compulsory in such a case, protecting the worker in any event against the possibility of loss, was defeated by a majority of 21. “I cannot seem to want a six hour day for industrial workers when We have something that runs well over twelve hours during the summer sea. son and at least twelve hours a day the year round for our agricultural workers .‘. . the farmer works so hard that at the end“ of the day he is not able to think . . . the farmers could no more think of putting on double or treble shifts than flying to the moon because no matter how they work, under present conditions, they cannot break even . . . I feel that we have now altogether too much disequiliâ€" ibrium between the country and th»: city . . . What are the farmers get~ ting! out of this much talked of re- form program? They are getting the chance to avail themselves of the Bankruptcy Act, which other people have had for some time past. They are getting the chance of a loan from the $90,000,000 fund, at a rate of interest which will probably be at least five per cent and may be five and a half per cent. But the gov- ernment would not think of bearing the administrative costs. Yet we can do all these other things (the labor’ reform program) . . . at the bottom! you have a group like the fishermenl and the farmers, who are hardly organized at all, and they have to pay al 1this increased cost : : because there is no use blink‘ng the fact that such legislation as that for a minimum ‘wage, an eight hour day and unemâ€" ‘ployment insurance put additional ‘ weight on the backs of the already burdened unorganized farmers . . . The farmers were here first; they were the pioneers who cleared the land and opened up the west; let us not now serve them last.” (Three Against It) The Unemployment Insurance I Bill was given its Third Reading in' the House of Commons and sent on to the Senate. The vote on third reading was 123 to 3. The members who opposed it were Henri Bourassa, veteran Nationalist orator from Que- l ) Ottawa, March 19thâ€"So far most of the session has been devoted to legislation aimed at improving the condition of the working man in Canada, and, Heaven knows, there is plenty of room for improvement in this field. Whether the new legis- lation will do more than scratch the surface is, of course, a debatable matter. ,The Unemployment Insur_, ance Act will help to relieve the next depression; but for a good many months it will diminish purchasing power among classes illabletoaffordy even so little as 25 cents a week from their earnings. The Eight Hour Day, the 48 hour week, the weekly day of’ rest, and the Minimum Wage law will each in turn be of some service, al- though there are so many exemptions that their sc0pe is nothing like so sweeping as some would suppose. To whatever" extent these laws mean relief, in the form of higher wages, shorter hours, or better un-I employment benefits, some one will have to foot the bill. Some one will have to pay more taxes, eisher direct,| such as income tax, or indirect, in the higher cost of commodities. (Lady Member Protests) These remarks serve to lead up to, ceed without the Prime Minister, who Iwill hardly be back before the Easter ladjournment.

As the budget has not been balanced .since 1930, in spite of higher taxes, 'it is beginning to get rather serious. The net debt of Canada has gone up $550,000,000 in the past four years, and it looks as though the end is not yet. The Bank of Canada presented its first statement of Assets and Lia- bilities last week. Although it had only been officially in business for three days at the time, it showod‘ quite substantial figures on both sides of the ledger. It has already acquir- ed over 106 million dollars worth of ‘gold at the old price of $20.67 per fine orunce. At the market price for gold‘this would be worth nearly 185 million dollars.

(Assistance for the West) The royal commissions inquiring into the claim of Alberta and Sas- katch-ewan for damages from the federal treasury, to cover the alleged alienation and mismanagement of the natural resources of those provinces, from 1905 to 1930, have reported to :he governments concerned, and their reports were laid on the table of the House last week. They advised that a sum of five million dollars, plus interest at five per cent per annum, from October 1, 1930 to date, should be paid to each of the provinces. \This comes to about $6,500,000 21 piece, and will be of material assistâ€" ance to these provinces at a critical time, assuming that it is paid over week.
