(By E. X. Hqfds)
Jn. my last letter to the .Sentinel
I dealt with a subject which has
created a great deal of interest not
only in the west,, but in the minds
of visitors and tourists in the west.
Calgary’s Perpetual Sunset. '
After, the lapse of months in
which I have yisited many of thedn-'
teresting. places to be found in the
west. I Want to introduce a subject
which has'been interesting to us Al
bertans for many. years. . ,
Three hundred odd rtiiles north and
east of Edmonton ..lies a desolate
waste of country which has* been a
bore to travellers' and a thorn in the
. flesh of almost' everyone who I has
been through, it but trappers. Even
the prospector long since passed it
A,up,as. a bad job. for the country, like

The bill to amend the Customs
Tariff, under the Budget, has finally
passed the House. Considerable dis
cussion has taken place in regard to
Sec. 70j3. which is in regard to the
$1QO. exemption. Under this Section,,
any resident of Canada is permitted
to purchase $100; worth of goods in
the United States and bring them in
to Canada, duty free, if he has been
in the States 48/flours or longer.
These goods may be for personal use,
household, use,' souvenirs, or" gifts,
only. Cigarettes are, limited to 20Q.
cigars to 50 and manufactured - to
baccos to the weight of 2 pounds. ,1
would like to'. point out. that it is not
lawful to purchase liquor in the Uni
ted 'States and bring same intoJJn-
taYiof although the Customs tariff
does allow 1 quarts Another import
ant point is that while goods to the ,
value of $5.00 need not be declared,
anything over that amount, if de
clared, even though the amount is
..far below the $100 mark, cancels
one’s "exemption for the next four
months.
—This'particularsectionwasdiscus--
sed for the greater part of two days,
coming in for heated • criticism from
"the Conservatives, who claimed to
see great. loss of revenue and who ,
“viewed the Section. with alarm".
Personally, I feel that as the United
States granted a similar exemption
to their citizens with regard to Can
adian goods long ago, reciprocity oh
our part cap do no great harm and
will, ..do~away—with -much, small smug-t .
gling that went on continually.
The British North America Act is
still before the Senate and a very
bitter discussion is going, on. The
Harbour Bill and the C.N.R. ‘Bill
are both expected to get a hard ride
there also. It has been predicted that
they will be either turned down com
pletely or so amended as to be use
less from the Government’s point of
view. The result is awaited with
much interest. ,
«Tha Minister of National De
fence is piloting his Estimates over,
tempestuous; seas*' meeting severe
criticism from all corners. but I am I
informed that this is the usual pro
cedure. The Minister advises Us that
. a “complete reorganization and. a
survey of our military defences is
being made with the idea of improv
ing same in the ihost economical
manner. . .
