The report of Mesore. 6. P. Gutelins
and George Lynch -Staunton, K.C., com-
misaioners appointed to investigate
the cost of construction of the Nation-
al Transcontinental Railway, was
tabled In the House of Commons lent
Thursday. The document was a very
lengthy one but the commlaatoners'
findings mlgbt be summed up in the
ooeichtding paragraphs. which were as
follow
"We find that the Tranaoontlnental
Railway Commission. the Grand Trunk
Railway and those having charge of
the construction of the railway dta
sot consider it dealrable or necessary
to practice or encourage economy in
the construction of thin road.
"We find that. without including the
money which was unnecessarily ex-
pended in bulkling the ratfway east of
the St. Lawrence River, forty million
dollars at least was needlessly ex-
pended -in the building of the road."
The rules adopted by the commis-
sion resulted 1n only five contractors
tendering for only 606 miles of rail-
way Eleven firms secured all the
work and sub -let it to upwards of 100
sub -contractors, and these eleven firms
were paid $S,t00,000 in profits for that
part of the work which they sub -let.
There 1b a reference in the report
to two contracta awarded to M. P. !
J. T Davis of Ottawa on October 29,
DOS. The contractors sub -let these
contracts on the understanding that
they should receive ten per cent. of
the gross cost of the work. The Com-
missioners say: "M. P. & J. T. Davis
have received $740,000 for doing
nothing."

Wrong Classification
On the question of over -classification
the report merely makes the state-
ment that contractors were overpaid
63,300,000 on improper clasgfncattoo.
A new sub -classification called 'as-
sembled rook" was improperly intro-
duced atter the contracts were signed
and $1,836,051 was paid for "assembled
rock." though there was no material
on the main line which could possibly
be marshalled under that head. it
should have been designed as "loose
rock," or as common excavation.
As to the actual cost of the road
to the country, the Comiitlssfoners say
that if the Grand Trunk Pacific be-
gins to pay interest on the cost of
construction In 1922 the road will have
cost a 'grand total for principal and

A resolution calling for reform in
Canadian divorce procedure, Po as to
give the poor people a better chance,
was presented to the House of Com-
mons on Monday by W. I). Northrup,
the conservative Member for hast
Hastings. it would be much better,
Mr. Ntorthntp thought, to have n0 di-
vorces at all, but the principle laving
been established, Canada should not
have one law for the rich and another
for the poor.
Hon. Rodolphe Lemieux. Hon. 1'. J.
Doherty ani Ser With -id Laurier pro-
moted agafnst Rey' reform which
would increase the number of divorces
or make them easter to obtain. The
Minister of Jkistice reminded the House
that the law of Canada did not recog-
nise divorce at all. it was beside the
question to talk of reforming our di-
vorce procedure, or of conferring
jurisdiction upon the judges.
t'pon motion of the Prime Minister
the debate WAS •djmrrned Mr Dor-
den said that he could not quite agree
with the Minister of Justice that we
had no divorce procedure. People
came to Ottawa to get divorces from
• Parliament„ just as In other countries
they sent t`o eta' courts. He t ght
tbat the p edings were un meg-
eerily expensive and that ma y re -
a tks , forms might be introduced.
