(Looks For Better Times) The government is banking on a continued improvement in employ- ment and business. This was shown There are still some landing fields and other equipment to be put in on the section between Montreal and Winnipeg, and the operat'on of the eastern half will not be possible un- til 1938. By that {Lime it is possible that TransAtlantic flights will have begun, and a letter which leaves London, England one day may be in Montreal the following day, and in Vancouver 17 hours later. It now takes upwards of 12 days for a letter to travel between these two points. j The gwernment is now moving a- ;long with its Trans-Canada aviation 1 bill. Alt'l'ng'h‘ some commercial avi- (ation authorities have been arguing ltfihat a stem cannot be -made until ‘1938, even with the westenn half of i'fihe service, from Winnipeg to Van- 'couver, the Department of 'Trans- port continues “to make plans for a commencement this summer. Domin- Zion Day has been set as a suitable Iapen'f’ng' occasion, and so far as the‘ lfac'ilifies to be provided by the gov-j ernment are concerned, namely, the1 lam’fing fields, aerod'romes, radio 'boa- . cons and Weather service, they ~w‘ill,l I am told, be ready. There may be! some doubt as to whether the new; corporation win have its aeroplanes] pilots and other arrangements ready! by that am, but I hear that it is‘ at least .a good gamble. ' flhaven’t any money, than they do When demand is good and the ram. ers are-relativ'eiy able to pay. Wh’y‘? Because the overhead cost of a fac~ tors“ is much the same when it is running '10 per 'CGHtv‘Of capacity as at 90 per cent. The overhead per Hmpkment in the former cage may {be :severel times-“what it is in the i latter. opposite. So much, and a good deal more. the farm imnlement committee is dis~ covering. But What to do about it? That is met such a simnle matter. (Airways Service'By‘Dominion Day?) The effect'being- that just whnn the farmer needs ~a 'little refief in the way of ‘lower costs of producâ€" tion he is faced with exactly the ' (Tariff Not Responsible?) as I can gather, a major discovery to date is‘that me direct !duty on 'farm implements entering Canada'has now very little to do with the high prices, although otlie: tar- iff restrictions (su‘ch as duty valus- ' tions) may be more Significant. What 1would happen if 'the 'duty was taken (off entirely, on imnorts [rem all leount’ries. is prob‘ema'ncal. But thcre ’is, according to the analyses of farm implement costs submitted to the lcomn‘ii'ttee, a very wide spread be- 5 tween the cost of some farm machinâ€" iery m ‘the facwa and the price {a "the’farmer. 'I noticed one illustra- tion in particular. A machine cost-‘ ring something over $900 at the facy ‘tory ran up to $2,400 by the time it was taken out' by “the farmer at his lurid dealer’s. "The difference,~of ’ coursc; wasnot all prafit, nor agent's com-missions. But a layman would certainly say offhand that there is something<wrong with a distribution service when a $900 machine cannot [be laid down in a famer’s front yardj [for less‘ than $2,400. 5 Ottawa, March 9.~â€"Every farmer knows that farm implements cost plenty. A parliamentary committee is trying- to find out why. A little over a year ago, just when some farmers were beginning to see faint streaks of daylight ahead for the first time, the list price of farm im- plements jumped up several notches, A committee of members of the House of Commons was appointed to discover the reason. Meanwhile the 'duty on farm implements was reduc- ed. 'it is LOW one of ‘the lowest in the'tar'iff schedules. But the price of farm implementsstays up. The committee came to no conclusion last Session, and decided to continue their inquiry. Meantime accountants and economists have been looking into the books of the big producing com- panies. repeated meetings of‘the committee, exhaustive studies ~of book-keeping accounts, tariffs, taxes, overhead, This session we have had‘ labor, capital structure, raw mater-r ials.’"What is the nigger in the wood-v pile?

The ' Supreme Court ‘building, for which a ssite has not yet 'been chosen, will ‘ eventually cost $1,250,000, and the new office buililing‘between 5 and 6 millions. , During the Bennett regime it was a favorite occupation of opnosition groups and: members to denounce the government loudly and frequently for its failure to do anything about unu lemployment. Now it is the turn of ’the Opposition to go after the Kine: [administration llnemo‘lovmenf may finot be so severe as it was. but it gis a long way from cured, and the lprog'ress toward recovery has not Lbeen as rapid as the Liiberals believ- led it would be when they got into Ioffice. There is not great vigor or fire in the attack, but the gravity of the situation is being stressed on the House. It is a current charge of the ‘south-east-corn'er’. which stands still down there while Liber- als and Conservatives move places after an election, that the major par- ties are deeply moved about the un- employment probiem when they are in opposition but don’t care so much when they take office. (New Supreme Court) The first of these is a Supreme Court Building. As everyone knows, the highest court of justice in Can- ada sits in a building originally erected to house the architects and engineers while the Parliament Build- ings 'were being- erected in the '60’s. It isrobscurely, almost meanly situ- ated at the base of Parliament Hill, a poor relation of the dignifie& off- ice blueks now rearing on every side. I have “heard the argument that "it is met and fitting for the High Court of justice to sit in a building little more ambitious than some stables. But most people will feel that a country as substantial as Can- ada deserves a more beautiful and impressive home for its highest tr’i- bunaL ‘ l A sum of $7,331,000, for instance, covers the amount set aside for fed- eral contribution to provincial and municipal relief projects, which may include some housing assistance. ‘A million dollars is set aside for devel- opment and training plans for un- employed young people. The sum of $2,500,000 is set aside to assist in eliminating- level crossings on railâ€" roads. This is a, combined relief and safety measure. Two mflllons is be- ing voted for assistance in. the dried out areas of western Canada, in the “form of direct relief, and another two millions for the drought rehabiliâ€" flzation schemes for the same area. ‘A sum not to exceed ‘$1,4’00;000 is available to build roads into mining areas. The special supplementary esti- mates, which amounted to $96,063,- 307 cover what the government calls extraordinary as distinct from ordin~ ~ary expenses of the government. There are in them some big- items -arising out of unemployment, quite apart from the $19,500,000 for direct relief noted above. "Similarly, the provision for the Canadian National Railways in 'the coming year is only $35,000,000. Last year the railway system cost the taxpayer $43,303,000. The total bill for all governments a1.d authorities for direct relief in 1936 (the calendar yearl was the staggering sum of $80,000.00(). If the" Minister of Labor is right in his forecast, and other governments re- &uce costs in proportion, this will not be more than $55,000,000 this year. Time will tell. The Dominion’s contribution to~ war'd‘the direct relief costs in Can- ada‘in the present fiscal year, end- ing in a few days, will be $28,930.â€" 00'0. But the government is only eriding $19,500,000 for this pur- pose in the coming fiscal year. The total bill for all governments a1.d authorities for direct relief in 1936 (the calendar yearl was the staggering sum of $80,000,000. If gates were brought down last week. The sum available far rel ef grants to the'provinces is being pared down swbst'crntially, while the vote for the deficit of the Canadian Nat=onal Rail- ways'is also down several millions. um LIBERAL, RIGHOND HILL.

His business expanded and he became in)- terested in hog-s, pork and beef pack- ing, creameries and cheese factories, wholesale and retail stores for the of his products, and finally in the great industries of the country. He became a director of many concerns and perhaps the most important busi- ness man in western Canada. Nine years ago he sold part of his inter- ests for 15 million dollars. He be- came a warm friend and supporter of Hon. R. B. Bennett, who appointed him to the Senate of Canada in 1931. The picturesque pioneer days of the Canadian prairies were made more wholesome and attractive by the clean-cut, merry personality that has just paSSed from Sight.
