Mrs, Stewart Higgins friends at Molesworth, J/ Wylie, spent the 1S visiting tain amount of so-called honour that is supposed to fall to the lot of a Member of Parliament, But Parliament ended the Speech from the Throne in day’s debate. When we consider that this some­ times requires weeks, yog will know that we are travelling fast, Mr. Bennett, Leader of the Oppo­ sition, has returned from his trip through the British dominions look­ ing hale and hearty, He was in a particularly happy mood in his open­ ing speech and continued in the good way, Both sides are anxious to fin­ ish this session by May 1st, The Coronation is coming and there are many who want to be present at that event. Anyway, the House of Com­ mons ought to be able to finish any session in four months, Contrary to the usual opinion, I hold the view that the members do not talk enough — I have put that sentence in reverse because I wanted to startle you first and then give you the real meaning afterwards — far too many members are silent, They never say a word; they are afraid; they are stage-struck. They feel if they stood upon their feet they could not satisfy their own ideals of what a speech should be and therefore they remain silent, session after session, making no real contribution to the work of the House. Talk to these Members in private and they arc reasonably fluent. They are. thoughtful; they are capable. They understand as much, perhaps more, than the eloquent ones. The only thing they lack is the early train­ ing which would enable them to think upon their* feet. On the other hand, there are many Members, who talk far too much. They speak all around the issue. Ihey do not head straight for the facts. They strike away in an opposite direction and then come back to the subject they are discuss­ ing. It is a deadly waste of time. There are exceptions, of course, but, as a usual thing, ten or fifteen min­ utes is plenty long enough to speak in the House of Commons. The Estimates have been brought down for the- year. They reveal a total vote on ordinary expenditure of ’ $405,000,000. This does not include an item of $3,532,000 chargeable to capital and $1,885,000 -chargeable to government-owned enterprises, the exact total with, these added, $410,- 465,397.17. This is an increase for the year of $16,491,981. Not so good! But the fact is that Canada is practically the only country in the world with no. defensive force. We are mot going “to keep up with the Joneses” but it has been decided to make at least a! start on expenditures for national de­ fense. I hope to give you some of the arguments in regard to this when the debate comes up in the House. The Social Credit group has been active during the past week. There was a resolution in favor of doing something for the financing of con­ sumption in the Dominion of Canada. This is, in essence, that we should pay out rnonev to help people eat more, thus assisting the nation to get rich by going into debt. The other resolution introduced by Mr. Black- more, Leader of the Social Credit group in the House, followed similar lines — he wanted to see more mon­ ey issued. Truth to tell, there is more money and credit issued today than there was at the peak of the boom, in 1929 but it is being used in a dif­ ferent way, and the main feature is that it is not moving so rapidly. What we heed is not more .money but an increase in the velocity of money we have.. And the velocity is increasing —business is picking up. By R. J. Deachman, M.P., North'Huron, Parliament went to work with a bang this week. Work at the House of Commons is nothing new — time in which to perform the necessary work is the real problem. Not only have we the sittings of the House of Commons, itself, which run from three in the afternoon to six and then from eight to eleven at night, but, in addition to this, there is the work of the various committees which must bo carried on and nearly all the mem­ bers have a certain amount of com­ mittee work to do. Add tn this the daily correspondence, the time re­ quired for a certain necessary amount of reading, and the life of a member is more or less a dog’s life, coupled, as sofne seem to think, with a cer- RjED AI?MY I^EADER Sandwiches are steadily growing in popularity for the lunch box, the tea­ party, or to be served as the main course at. lunch or supper.
