The Brussels Post, 1927-2-23, Page 4THURSDAY, FEB. 23rd, 1927 ' Just rink Its strpGClt'Ob flavo ar satisfies. On Parliament Hill By R. J. I)ractin:ain, Press Gallery THE WEEK IN OTTAWA Ottawa, Feb„ 1927 -All things political sink into insignificance this week compared with the important event, the bringing down of the 13 1' get. The Hon. James Robb e rung e surprise in the House when nn Tuesday he announced that the r. V Budget would see the light td day oft Thursday. This was the -eminently right and proper thing to do.. Wo have had the fashion in C'a^.atli:t,1 politics of letting our Budget„ han;f tire too long. It's hard on the 11011,e•8 of our Finance Ministers. it. keep.' the door steps duttt'red with n lot of seekers after favor'; and mendicants for privileges. By springing the Budget all at once, Mr. Robb got rid of a lot of these fellows. When, they heard the news that the Budget eves coming they grabbed their hats and ran for the train, but fortunatttly quite a number failed to arrive in time and sb we have our Budget served up in natural style for the first time in an age. Compared with last year the Bud. get its not epochal. It is not a pre- election Budget. It will not enthuse the multitude -startle the country or rouse the warriors of any party to fierce antagonism or wild approval. The interesting feature is the varied reception which it receives in the House. To understand the feeling we must consider the chanbes made. They were as follows:- 1. Ten per cent. cut in income tax. 2. Twenty per cent. cut in sales tax. 3. Twenty-five per cent, cut 3n ex- cise tax on matches. 4. Stamp tax exemption on cheques raised to $10.00. 5. Stamp tax on overdrafts abcliah- ed. 6. Stamp tax on cheques now '2c on any amount over $10.00. 7. No tariff changes. The Reception In general it may be said that the Budget meets with the approval of the Conservative party. They will kick at it, of course -they will cavil Custom Sawing As we have noir a q iantity of Custom Logs in our yards fur S •ring :Sawing, parties requiring CuSt(.Itt Sawing done should arrange to have Logs 1n 2P we (10 not expect this 1V1i11 will THE BRUSSELS POST NEW MEN IiV THE LEGISLATURE A. A. Colquhoun,M,L,A„ S. Perth South Porth likes 0 change now anti then in its representation. It 1,..ed to e last .101111 Ilc'tuleweis to sit 17, Hind Sir James Whitney, and later Sr William Hearst. John went down 11,'or.er in 1.919, when the rid- ing chose Peter Smith and, without s:nsp, etl.r•;' it. elected 0 minister of th,:, 1 .urs: Cabinet. In the li:lit of hist Government's record, the con - t1 -n, 1cy ,aw lit to return a Con- ervat,ne, McCausland Irvine, in t:N;. by the narrow margin of 40. I Hee, n," the last campaign brought •1 about election of a Liberal, A. A. Colquhoun, ni Hibbert by 192. A first attempt by The Free Press to have a. little cleat with 11r. Colqu- houn was not successful. Ile was tlt,i my on o. seri in a highly teehni- ,,P eel , left t (ice with Farquhar Oliver, iter,) I' 0 for South Gr 11 1 t -.-they will find f tilt, but they wit not eh un all night 'to fight it, not feel at heart. that the Empire is tot- gtering to its f1411 when the Budget oes through as it will go with )treat celerity end speed. Liberals of the heft wing will approve of it with re- eTet. They would like to so" cer- tain reductions in the tariff. T''ey will vote for the Padget with cer- tain rq)it.het( with difficulty 0•a ,1 traif- "beneath their breath. Progre.i- sire..', i ,F.A., and Labor will oppose' it on the ground that it hands over Pee, or six million dollars to those who least need charity, those who now pay income tax. The opposition front this quarter of the House will be fairly vigorous. They perhaps hoped for little this year, but they must establish the terrain on which they fight in future against further reduction_ in the income tax. After taking all these things into consideration it must be conceded that the Budget reflects the increas- ing prosperity of the country. Our National debt is being reduced, not as fast as it ought to be reduced, but the reduction is taking place. We have returned to normalcy with a jerk. From a position in which de- ficits were the order of the day, wo now speak glibly of surpluses of twenty to thirty millions. There is no denying the fact that from that standpoint, conditions have vastly improved and if the Conservative Party had been in power when the change carne, the mighty diapa.+m of sound that would have gone up would have been amazing. The Defence Against the charge that he has done nothing with the tariff, Mr, Robb has a very excellent defence. hast year a Tariff 'Board was ap- pointed. That Board 11,1 not begin to function until May. During a certain period, while the election was on, it was in a state of more or Less su::pendecl animation. It was like• Houdini in a coffin under water, living on short breaths tend a per- fectly controlled state of mind, 5inee the election it has been busy, but the twists and turns of indus- tries in their relation to me another are very complex and it is perhaps unfair to malar changes In the tariff until a thorough examination has been matte. Therefore, Mr. Robb efts, "We will wait until the: Iloard h 1.- had an eppnrt0nity to complete its investi_ations and then. we °hall be ready' for action. That view point may not be correct, but it sounds well as a defert:e. There ere n0 doubt mouldering branches of ,n:'• t•rr'sff which coulrl he cttt away without 1111.1ainv, titrating. Appar- operate after this season, ey', a 0 it the t rt hu es of .sheep in connection with , adtetttion of sow thistle. This fon,lr'css for sheep seems to be here- d,•,ttu'y. Just 325 years ego Sir Hum- phrey Colquhoun, head of the Scot- tish clan, fought the bloody battle of Gienfruin against the MacGregors, in which the Colquhoun lost 200 men, and that sanguinary affair is reputed to have been the outcome -of a feud arising out of the slaughter of a Colquhoun sheep when a party of wandering MacGregors were re- fused hospitality. At any rate, tlta clan was not wiped out, and a Col- quhoun who came out to Canada in 1820, landing at Brockville, was the grandfather of the present member for South Perth, He remained in that district for 20 years, coifing in- to the western district in 1840, after the rebellion. Mr. A. A. Colquhoun's father was born in Lanark. He 'himself is a native of Hibbert Township, Pe'th, and :till farms on the 9th concession, two miles and a half east of Staffs. In youth he taught school for three yegis at Fullerton, and later for 3` months at Cromarty. In municipal service he has had a unique career, stepping into the Township Council RS Reeve by acclamation without pre- vious service, and being re-elected by acclamation for 10 consecutive years. Taro subsequent elections ltd ran and then, went down to defeat on the statue labor issue, on which, by the way, the ratepayers later changed their minds. In 1922 Mr. Colquhoun was warden of Perth. He has been secretary -treasurer of the McKillop, Logan and Hibbert Telephone Co. since its formation in 1908. Incie dentally, John Benneweis, former member, is its president. In relig- osiu affiliation Mr. Colquhoun is one takes now will make it extremely difficult for him to avoid a thorough renovation of the mantle of protec- tion when he slakes the Budget next year. At least that is how things look, but perhaps in that regard, we may he like the Farmer in the West, living always in anticipation of tl splendid crop next year. The Attack • Mr. Richard Belford Bennett, Minister of Finance pro tem, in the brief and expiring Government of the Honorable Arthur Meighen, last summer, acted as critic of the Bud- get. This was the same style of speech that Mr. Bennett usually 'sakes and yet it was different. One gazes at him in amazement. Is there softening of the old spirit -is there the dawn of rationality and sincerity in the Honorable gentleman? One who has watchedy long and patiently for such a happy deyelopment may 11""""r, 11r. Bohb is not go - he forgiven for rekindled hopes, '•• t,,, One half of his speech was nonsense --a little mora seriou1, but slightly less amusing than ' Mother Goose, The balance had something of the adolescent touch of a sophomore at- tempt at a political essay. 'Fake this for instance, From the Filly side of Mr. Bennett's speech He was trying to prove that taxes dnot been reduced at a11, so he 1119 the total revenue, divides it oy 110' nopelation and says: "there you are,"" you have actually collected more per unit of population than you dial l t este." That of course is;)1"c- what a reduction in taxation frequently (Ions. That has been point e11 out by every economist from AdamSmith to Janos Robb, but apparently :lir.

In- de ed he was runner-up in the bal- loting, which resulted in the elloice of W. A. McKenzie, a Logon fanner, but took no part in the meeting, and 1, ft before the derision was reached, so that it was H. MiLugau, of Down- ie, who moved the choice be "'lade unanimous." The Liberals stet with- in a week, but deferred selection of a candidate and then the Dominion election campaign came on, As late as October 20, the Toronto Star sent n reporter into South Perth to write up the political satiation, and he "understood" that Mr. Mackenzie, U. F. 0. nodinee, would "have the ac- tive co-operation of Liberals through- out the riding." On November 1, the Conservatives put up "Mac" Ir- vine again, and within 0 week the Liberals met at Mitchell and chose ilir. Colquhoun. Efforts were there made by Progressives end Prohibi- tionists to prevent nomination of a third candidate, and subsequent con- fei'ences were held to the salve end. 5 -Ir. Colquhoun, according to press reports, offered to withdraw and go before a joint convention, but Mr. McKenzie did not fall in with the idea. When official nomination day came, however, Mr. McKenzie did not go to the post, and his six months' campaign went for naught. After the election there was a mild sensation over the disclosure that a check had been sent to Mr. McKen- zie by the Prohibition Union toward expenses of that campaign, and some talk that ,the action tight affect Mr. Colquhoun's position, but nothing' has been heard of the- matter of late, South Perth was much exercised over the control issue.
