As 'President of the Board of Education, he succeeds Arthur Henderson, who. resigned on August 8th. Mr. Arthur lEIendersen, whose chief- duty is in an unpaid post - "l ARTHUR HENDERS,or tion as labor adviser to the Gov- ernment has been appointed Pay- master -General in succession to Baron Newton, who has resigned that office and has been appoint- ed an Assistant Under. Secretary of Stale for :Foreign Affairs. 'Mr. Hendersons new position carries with it the Presidency of the Commissioners of the Royal Hos- pital at Chelsea who have charge of all militarY pension matters. Canada's shameful waste (Kingston Whig) The prodigality of parliament, in passing millions of dollars unquestion- ly and for the purposes of war, has been applauded. The idea was not to scamp the government of the Militia Department, in any way, that it had assumed the reepoueihility of meeting the contingencies of the hour and that it should he allowed to meet and carry the load regardless of expense. - But neither parliament nor the people which it represents, have meant that any considerable encu or money should be wasted in profligate business deals, and the Toronto Star, whose in- furnuttion it is presumed, is trust- worthy, makes an exposure which will arouse great public displeasure. The record is astonishing, Here it is sum- marized: (' 17ransport waggons unsuitable for the roads of Belgium and lerance, pur- chased in hundreds, and four of them crossed the channel, The rest aband- oned somewhere in England. (b) Machine guns, purchased for the Eaton Machine Gun Battery. Agen- erous and costly gift, piled up at 'Wat- ford, England, and unused. (c) Bicyynit's, thousands of them, not standardized, unsuitable, and piled up in thousands in England, fit material for the scrap beep, (d) Boots, millions of them, and oast iug millions of doltars; regarded as useless and uu$t for the cobbled roads of France. Une consignment sent to France as an experiment and not yet reported upon. (e) Leather Oliver equipments 200,0110 of them stored in England, of no value to the forces, and wish 260,000 other leather equipments, which have been bought at large expense only to go into discard, (r) Ross rifles, thousands of them and representing millions of dollars, kept in use long atter they were re garded as a failure, and now wholly replaced at the front by the Lee-L+'n- field. A prodigious and incalculable lose. The patent spade "invented by a young lady in Sir Sam Hughes' depart mein at Ottawa," says the. Stele -thee wonderful spade, which was not only to dig trenches but to offer is shied to protect the sons of Canada -•unused and useless, is piled tip to the number of hundreds of thousands in England. This is a striking revelation, apart from what has taken place in conuec tion with all the scandals that have been aired in Parliament, in corn mittee, and hi commissions, and it must have very irritating public of feets. The Star says that most of these great loses have been incurred because the Minister of Militia knew getter than any one else, or better than all others, what was needed, and everything had to go regardless of consequences. The war does not pre vent the tuembers of the Imperial Parliament From discussing financial budgets, and it looks as it the (Jana dian members of Parliament must, the interests of the economy that should be practised, enter a vigorous proteet against all further investiga tion. ettoesaaafemeseeiseressammee ® e Huron County News • • c••••0•000000.006•a•®••acre Wesley Anita of Colborne township, hi to appear before Judge Dickson in the County (Jobst on Saturday, on the charge of indecent assault.
