ON PARLIAMENT HILL
By
r pf the Perth;Maniere, Prises genet*/
Ottewe.—An indication of the de-
sire of Parliament to save the publle
money by eliminating needless talk
and getting down to business Speedily
was furnished un Monday of last week,
the debate un the Address In reply to
the Speech from the Throne terinin-
eked without air ;intendment being qt
feed by the Opposition, and the same
evening the main Estlinetes for the
:Meal year ending March 31, 026,
were tabled by lion, Jamee A. Robb,
Acting Minister of Maine. That de-
bate established a record for brevity,
' That one week compares very favour-
ably with the three weeks consumed
last year ancrwIth any session of this
fourteenth PartJimmie An amusing
fact In this connection Is that, while
last year the Conservatives were scold-
ing the Progressives for prolonging
the. dieeueslien, the Opposition this
Year we ecolding the Liberals and
Progressives tor not talking and chive -
lag that, ,t "conspiracy •of silence" had
been arranged between those two part -
les. it was also declared by Conserv-
atives that the Liberals had refrained
from talking st, that the session could
be shortened in order to hold a gen-
eral election at an early date. The
Liberate and Progressives both refrain-
ed from talk, after the aeaders 'and a
very few others had expressed them-
selves, but for another reason which
was their desire to get down to bus-
iness and save the country avoidable
expense.
ECONOMY IN PRACTICE
A reduction of almost $7,000,00o
was the outstanding feature of the
main Estimates. Another notable fact
is that, 11 the 'reduction in the main
Estimates of the last three fiscal years
are added together, there is to the
credit of she Dominion Government
a total cut in estimated expenditure
of nearly $105,000,000, and this in
the face of heavy uncontrollottle out-
lays that cannot be cut and that must
be paid to +meet tobffigations 'contracted
by Canada during the war and as
result of the war. Still another rm.'
portan•t feature is that where any con-
siderable Increase of expenditure is
to be provided for it is really in the
nature of an investment on behalf of
the taxpayers of the Dominion. An
illustration of this is the proposed ad-
ditional expenditure of $700,000 to- ee
ward the maintenance and operation
of the dredging fleet in the River St. ce
Lawrence Chennel. The effects of Ut
this wile be to further reduce the haz-
ards of navigation, which are now real- je
ly at minimum, and thus encourage the
British underwriters to reduce their 8")
rates of marine insurance on vessels
plying in and out of Canada's great-
est waterway.
FEATURES OF THE ESTIMATES
One important saving effeqed by
the King Government is in the interest
on the public debt, the amount of Ibis
being a, little over $2,375,000 as a
result of refunding loans floated by the
Government In the tatter half of 1924
to pay off maturing Victory Bonds
and other obligations. The Govern-
ment w25 able to get its money at a
considerably cheaper rate 'than the in-
terest carried by the Victory Loan Is -
"me they were retiring. Then savings
were actually made in some of the
u neon trollable outlays; soldiers', laid
settlement, $1,500,000; soldiers' civ-
il re-establishment, 1,210,00; adjust-
ment of war claims, $135,000; Imper-
ial War Graves Commission, $98,780.
Included in the Estimates is an item
that will prove popular witb the ag-
riculture people of the country, and
that is provision for an annuity of
$5,000 for Dr, Charles Saunders of
the Central Experimental ?arm at Ot-
tawa for his Invaluable services to his
country in the development of the now
famous ",Merquis" spring wheat.
CURBING THE STEAMSHIP COMBINE
burin the week the details of he
proposed gontrect between, the Gov-
ernment and the Dritish OlOippinig eon.
cern, headed by Sir WIlliem Peterson,
for the purpose Of setting up suffice
lent competition on the Atlantic ocean
to compel A reduction in frelght rets
ongoods shipped from Canada to Bu -
• and from Europe to eetnada.
There will be some nveily discussion
of that project in the House of COM,.
mons, The Government's purpose in
the scheme is to get control of ocean
rates In return for paying a cash am-
ount of over $1,000,000 to the Peter-
son concern. A fleet of vessels will be
put on the ocean by the latter, to be
supplement ed by probably twenty
ships of the Canadian Government
Merchant Marine, and the money ;cis•
be paid to the company will be deter-
mined by the extent to whielt that
company cute Its freight rate below
that of the North Atlantic Stennship
Conference. Thar the latter is a com-
bine maintaining extortionate rates on
Canadian cattle and other exports is
shown in the report of W. T. R. Pres-
ton tabled in the House of Comitnons
and even more conclusively by the
evidence submitted to the House two
years ago by the Special Committee
on Agricultural Conditions appointed
by Parliament To inquire, into ocean
freight rates and other questions of
vital concern to 'Canadian agricullture.
The Government's present plan to
curb the power of the North Atlantic
Conference is a direct result of the
retorts of that Special Committee.
Another interesting feet is that the re-
port submitted by that Committee to
the House was a unanimous report,
was assented to even by the Conserv-
ative members of that Committee, in-
cluding Hon, Dr. S. F. Tolmie and
Donald Sutherland (South Oxford),
the titter of whom last week in the
House devoted a lengthy speech to
denunciation of Mr. Preston, author
of the latest report on the ,activieles

the MecLein resolution, the emend -

Premier King, while regarding the de-
bate as largely academic, radmieted
there was much to be said on both
s:des of the argument, and suggested
that it would very probably be comfit-
ered by the conference to be held
after the present session between
the provinces and the Dominion on
the primary question of reform of the
Canadian Senate. Air. Meighen de -
dared he still favoured the preserv-
ation of Canadian appeal to the 13rit-
ish Privy Council and of the power ofei

Lapointe urged that the pact of Con-
federation was in essence a treaty be-

ion and that the Satter could not am-
end that British North America Jct

Mr. Wigle reviewed some of the

securities, Dominion and provincial Dominion, Income Taxes $50 DOW ago, and submitted a number of
Gpractical suggestions. He referred to

Education Needs.
- The Centre Huron member urged
some method of inducing a greater in-
terest in geforestation, and critized
the high entrance standard for the
0. A. C., which is matricolation.
"Attendance has fallen off," 'he
noted," and it is absurd that a farm-
er's son should spend four or five
year's to ampere matriculation and
the father be put to the expense, tend
then if he events to be a fanner pos-
sessing o degree from the Collegiate
he has then to go to Guelph. It will
take as much to educate the farmer as
it takes now to be a doctor or lawyer.
"The overhead is to high in our
educational system, which takes one-
quarter of our outlay, and 1 think the
minister can reduce it without affect-
en,g its efficiency. 1 believe the time
has come when there should be a
,change in the currieullum of rural
-schools, The farmer's son or daugh-
ter should •have a better eduoation• in
the event of not going beyond the
entrance."
Mr. Wig -le said that the highway
construction and maintenance outlay
In 'prospect justified the proposed
gasoline tax, but he had heard some
comment that three cents was about
a cent and a half too high. Probably
however, the Government would soon
reduce license fees and then a good
share of the contribullon would be
from motorists of other ,ceuntries.
The 'member advocated licensing of
all drivers.

Hydro in Western Ontario
Proposal Made by E. R. Wigle (Center
Huron) in Legislature — Use Small
Water Powers — Would Give Ad-
vantage to More Distant Consumers,
E. R. Wigie, Center Huron, proposes
that the Ontario hydro committee ut-
ilize some of the smeller water -Dow-
ers in Western Ontario to augment
the 'electrical supply before it spends
huge sums on auxiliary steam plants.
Another reference to hydro in the de-
bate in the Legislature came from M.
A. McCallum (Prog., South Bruce),
E. R. WIGLE, M. P. P.
who put forward a suggestion made
before by someone that consumers in
the Large centres help out the rural
districts.
"Hydro, as applied to the County of
Huron," said Mr. Wigle, "is not as ad-
vantageous as In some other localities,
In Goderich hydro is $55 Der horst-
power, in Clinton $48, Seaforth $40
Blyth $91, Brussels $72 and Walton

with these prices not only is the farm-
er han'dicap'ped through the price of
hydro,
"During the Drury regime an inves-
tigation committee recommended that
the Government plate a tax on the
power developed at the several falls.
1 believe this a good idea to create a
fund that may be distributed to those
mu nielpalities not forth net efy situated.
Four farmers to the mile are required
before they can have hydro. If there
were some -system of special aid
through such fund, there would be a
number more take advantage of this
great enterprise. No reason why the
fernier, the man behind the basic In-
dustry, should be denied this con-
venience."

For We by Jannis fox
asked this year cif the $5,000,000 al-
is expended those responsible% for
hydro policy should survey some of
the minor water fells in the province.
(Applause,) 1 believe they could eas-
ily harness a number of these send 1
speak •particulary of the falls on the
Maitland River, a few miles from God-
erich, as an example. About 12 years
ago the hydro made a survey and
found that the cost of a dam was too
great to be advantageous. 1 believe
now with the progress made in en-
gineering and a modern method of
censtruetion 'that the hydro collymiS-
sion would be wee advised to make a
survey again of the Maitland FalIS and
that the people in that section of the
country eould be served advantage-
ously by power generated there."
Mr. McCallum said: "Speaking from
the rune point of view, 1 feel that we
have scarcely had a fair deal. We
are far away from the centre of the
hydro development and farmers in that
country like hydro and would. do a
very great deal to make conditions on
the farm more acceptable to Stir boys,
and girls if we could have hydro, but
it costs too much, and when 1 ceirne
down to Toronto and find you have
your homes lighted and houses heat-
ed, ,partially, and so many of.. the con-
veniences that we are denied in the
district farther away I think if pos-
sible—I would not like to advocate a
flat rate—,but we should have some-
thing more ;levee, approaching a flat
rate in hydro.. If we could have, as
suggested a few years ago, a rental
placed on the users of hydro in these
large districts nearer to the plant, a
metal set aside as a fund to help in
the outlying districts, 1 think it would
be a splendid Idea."
