have not been intended as criticisms
of the Governnont, but rather of the
system under which Cabinet Ministers
are selected. As a rule, the selection
does not fall upon the best men avail-
able for the vacant posts, men with
successful experience in the fields
ovbicll they are called upon to ad-
minister, On the contrary, the ap-
pointments are generally awarded in
return for party services or with an
eye to the political influence the new
Minister may wield in his section of
Canada. The result is that, under
this system, party interests are
frequently considered before public
advantage. The Financial Post has
been urging that in this, the greatest
opportunity for extending Canadian
trade which has ever occurred, the
Ministers referred to above have not
risen to the einergency. Though 1/o
doubt directed with the best of inten-
tions, their efforts have been quite in-
efficient.
This will be seen by referring to the
desue:tch above quoted. 101r. Burrell

That part of the campaign iS, there-

as he seems to think, the rine thing
