(Curious Tariff Twists) Some queer twists and quirks oc- curred in the debate on the tariff items of the United Kingdom agreeâ€" ment. In one day we have the spectacle of Mr. Bennettâ€"one time champion of high tariffshplearlingr for free entry of galvanized plates. W. Ross MacDonald, a Liberal, chid- ing’ the Toronto Conservatives be- cause the Toronto Ti‘ansnorta'rinn Measures still to be dealt with in- clude the Trans-Canado airways biEI, the new Combines measure, the an- nual unemployment relief bill, the supplementary estimates, one or two small customs bills. The session will either conclude or adjourn on April 10th it is Said. The government wants a couple of weeks free before the sailing date for the coronation. If the work now before the House cannot 'be completed i.) that time it will be dropped, or, if too important to defer, will be post period until after the session. A committee has now for two ses- sions been studying the elections ma- chineny‘, of the country, with an eye ‘to reforms. It has rejected propor- ‘tional representation, the single al- ternate vote, compulsory registration and compulsory voting. They do, ‘however, recommend a number of minor changes expected: to improve the democracy of the electoral sys- tem. A bill‘ incorporating these changes! will be prepared during- the recess, it is expected, and will be introduced next sessiOn. The idea of a permanent voters list will almost certainly be abandoned. While it has manm useful features, it is very exâ€" pensive, and fails to maintain an accurate record of the TY’T‘SV‘WS en- titled to vote in each ridn'mr. It was brought in during the Bennett re- gime, several years ago. i The new company, Trans~Canada Airways, will have the exclusive right “to fly mails, passengers, ex- press, Ion~the main artery from Hali- fax to Vancouver, with certain ccn- meeting links to be designed. The Post Office department will Sign a contract with it to carry t1 0 mails. For two years any deficits! will be met by the Dominion govoi-mruzt. and after that a. rate for carrying the mail will The set likely to allow the company to operate at a small profit. It 'is‘ expected that i: will cost a million dollars a year. in ac- tual operating expenses, to run the route across Canada. The department still hopes to be- gin the western section thzs sum- mer; all landing fields are +0 be ready ‘by the end of 1937. 0f the 85.000,000 capital, a srrm of 551350.000 will be subscribed‘ for the mammoth company: being formed to fly the mails across the Atlantic. Imperial Airways, Pan-American Airnays, an Irish company, and the Canadian company will all share in the operations of this service. The northern route across the Atlanfic, which will be used in the summer, will be from London to Ireland, thence to‘Newfoundland, and then up the St. Lawrence to Montreal. The only other alternative was 'a cross between a private and a pub- lic enterprise, and‘ apparently that is what is being attempted. The Can- adian National Railways takes over the capital stock, 50,000 shares of $100 each, and allocates to the 1m- vate concerns, including the Canad- ian Pacific, if it wants to go in, such portions as they desire to Obtain. Presumably if there is a greater de- mand for the shares than the avail» able supply they will have to be div videdl on some 'basis still to be: ar- ranged. The Canadian National would» retain a considerable per cent age of the shares its-elf. Ottawa, March 30. The Tramsâ€" Canada Airways is a stage nearer reality, now that the legislation proâ€" viding for the creation of a Icompamy to fly the mail, passengers and exâ€" press across the country “has been introduced. Exactly what form the company should take has given the government deep and prolonged thought in the past year. To ieave it to private companies, such as Can- adian and Colonial Airways, Eastern Canada Air Lines, Wings Limited, and so on, would have meant, per- haps, several competitive éervices across the country, with costly dupli- cation and possibly not one "really adequately equipped. No one wanted a repetition of the railway duplica- tion which gave Canada three trans- continental lines when she could hardly afford two. Nor did the Dominion Government want to go into the aviation busi- ness itself, and run the TranshCan- ada service in the same way as it runs- the Post Office.

Some members with a construc- tive turn of mind“ suggest that the rermedm for such high interest rates are credit unions, savings societies, or other coâ€"omerative schemes in which peoplie put their savings to be loaned out again- at reasonable rates to those who need money. While the 18931 bank interest rate in Can- ada is only seven ner cent, some of these small lo2n corporations obtain 25% or more, the addritiional sum beâ€" ‘ing classed; as a service charge or some such camouflage. Parliament can. of course, put such companies out of busimss. but unless something is done to take their place. it may be doubtful whcfrher the accomplish- ment is wry striking. Commission had imported buses from [the United States inswad of buying I’t'hem 'in Canada, several western ILiberaIs assailing the Minister of [Finance because he did not reduce the tariff enough to suit them, Mr. Dunning in- his turn repudiating the suggestion that he was a free trader or ‘had ever been one, and stating his belief that there was only one . out-and-out free trader im the House. ' A big storm has been brewing ov-‘ er the Small loan corporations. Sevâ€"; eral of these companies have been seeking incorporation. change of name, or something of the sort, and it is' necess‘any/ to pass a private bill through both Houses to obtain these things. That is how they come be- fore the triihun'al of parliament. The whole principle of such loan com»- panies has been trenchan'tlv attacked on the ground‘ that they collect usur- ious rates of interest from near niec- ple who cannot avoid falling into their clutches. Parliament has been asked to pass stringent laws mak- ing it illeval to collect such high‘ rates of interest. I A FAVORITE TESTED RECIPE “It was deemed that a ‘stro’n-g arm’ attitude at such a critical moment would serve a useful purpose. An unusual step was taken by the government in. announcing before any humble had actually come to the surface. that ‘sitâ€"down’ strikes would not be tolerated in Canada, that the government would use all the re- sources and authprity at its com- mand to prevent such illegal meth- ods obtaining- a foothold in Canada. THE M. Kim“ HILL. ONTARIO The ’W-election results in Hamil- ton West and Bonaventure proved very little. The former is traditiom ally Conservative and the latter quite as traditionally Liberal, and they remained true to their faith. It may be argued that Kennedy Con- nor, the. Liberal, obtained several thousand more votes in Hamilton 'han he did 18 months ago, but as against that, on the former occaâ€" =ion there were two Li’beral nomin- ees. It is interesting that the C.C.F. candidate polled a heavier vote in ‘937 than in 1935, but again, in, 1935 much of the normal C.C.F. vote was picked up .btw the Rec0ns-truction "and'i'rlrahe. It cannot be said that “the C.C.F. group makes much pro- gress. and this is all the more reâ€" markable because the conditions in the past six or seven years might well have fostered the development of a substantial party of protest a- gainst the existing parties, and this, one would guess, would be socialistic in ting-e. 0111' The Minister of Finance obviousâ€" ly referred to R. J. Deachman of Huron North, but shortly afterwards J. G. Ross, Moose Jaw. arose and subscribed to the Faith, and other western members restated their be- lief in much lower tariffs on such things as clothing. The truth is that there is a dissatisfied insurgent group 'within the Liberal party which is by no means satisfied with the progress the government is making in reducing duties. It is necessary to remember, of course. that tariffs have probably been cut more in the past eighteen months than ever be- fore 'in Canadian history; also, that there are other interests in Canada besides those of the western farmer clamoring for attention. 'The gov- ernment, as usual, has to steer a middle course, and suits nobody. The important thing is to hold the coun- try together as we'll as possible, and that means compromise.

Of the exports British Emm're countvies took 8456000000 and foreign coun- tries $516,000,000. The United States was the largest customer, taking $396,000,000, While the United King- dom was a close second, with $377,- 977,841. Australia, with which Canada. re- cently has been negotiating a new trade agreement, absorbed $24,802,- 933 worth of Canadian products, Value of United States GOOds Three Times Greater Than Purchases from Great Britainâ€"General Favorable Balance is In- creased Over Six Mil- lion During Period Canadian imports fmm all counâ€" tries for the first elexnn months of the present fiscal year totalled $600,- 885,537, an increase of 590847.567 over the corresponding preceding eleven months. The principal supplier of the com- modities brought into the country was the United States, which furn- ished goods to the value of 8349‘- 748,468, including huge quantifies of raw products and materials for fur- ther manufacture. Canadian pur- chases from the neighboring Repub- lic showed an increase of 22 per cent over the previous elevenâ€"month per- iod. Britain was the second largest sup- plier of goods required btw Canada, with a total of 8116583080, as a- gainst $108,177,173 for the corres- ponding period of the previous fis- cal year, an increase of 7.8 per cent. Canada thus drew three times as much in the way of supplies and equipment from the United States as from the Mother Country.
