MIRROR Of THE NATION
Carrying out the undertaking he
gave at Peterborough on June 16, to
present a plan to provide relief for
Canada from the burden of railway
deficits, lion. R. J. Manion. Leader of
the National Conservative Party, sub-
mitted his plan to the country hi an
address at Smith's Falls on July 24.
l.egarded ne of uutetanding import-
ance. his address was transmitted in
extended summary by news aerviues
a..•ross the country, and is stow the
5abject of nation-wide diseusalon. Hc•
`,:tbniitted it ne the polies of the Con-
servative Party on the railway situ-
_`, ion.
Dr. Manion's plan provides for cont -
1' ;Mary re-npet•tttion it! the !operation
et the two railways to eliminate any
1'; t. <e. sary duplication ani waste
e1::1 secure all possible savings. and
re- establishment of a non-political
board to enforce and direct this. co-
rat ion. -
The Canadian National Railways
t- to be freed from political halm
,ea now making for unnecessary
expenditures. Allied with, compulsory
s -operation. as part of the plan, is
reduction of the fixed charges of the
system through refunding of its sec-
urities at lower interest rates. A fur-
ther part of the plan provides for
regulation of other transportation
services which compete with the rail-
ways, this to be effected through co
operation between the Dominion and
the Provinces. Finally, Dr. Manion
proposes that under policies designed
to encourage and expand all sound
branches of Canadian enterprise, traf•
tic shall be created for the railways
to enable them to operate success•
fully in the interests of the country.
Dr. Manion submitted his proposals
as a concrete plan capable of stand-
ing up to examination. in contrast
with the so-called unification proposal
ler a railway monopoly which has re-
peatedly failed to stand the test of
:such examination by parliamentary
bodies. He submitted it as a forward
plan, contrasting with a program of
defeatism and retreat; as a program
for building Canada up in contrast
with one for tearing the railway syr.
t-yre down. it is a plan designer) to
E ---p both railway; it xi et.!nr e- to
g>; far towards wiping out r.'anadiun
N eeonal deficit and t-; enable the
'anadian Pacific to operate prntit•t
!wily. An essential condition of the
plan is protection for ra iway work-
re who would lose theie employment
through co-operation.
Dr. Manion's plan clarine the sit-
nution in respect to the railways in
advance of the elections. Contrasting
with it is the Mackenzie King Gov-
ernment's
overnment's policy of leaving the rail-
way situation to -solve itself, of look-
ing to chance and circumstance tar a
relief from the railway deficits. The
'government proposes to da nothing
about the railways on the ground that
business recovery will provide the
increased earnings; but it takes no
steps to promote business recovery,
while its makeshift policies and .its
lack of leadership discourage and im-
pede it. The Conservative policy con-
trasts on the other hand with the
unification oramalgamation proposal
which would have Canada turn back;
ward in retreat, a proposal that
denies the possibility of economic re.
covery and expansion for Canada in a
degree requiring railway facilities
considered necessary as far back as 0
quarter of a century ago.
With the experience of five years
as 'Minister of Railways behind hint,
Dr, Manion's plats is the result of
long and serious consideration. It is
claimed by advocates of unificatior
that co-operation has failed. As Dr.
Manion declares. co•operatlun has not
failed because it has never been tried.
Parliament provided for voluntary co-
operation but the railways refused to
Barry it out. Dr. Manion proposes to.
make co-operation certain by making
it compulsory under an Independent
lxidy.

90TH YEAR MARKED BY
BAYFIELD CHURCH
The following is a brief history of
Trinity Church. Bayfield, compiled
for the observance of the ninetieth
anniversary,
The Village of Bayfield is called
after a celebrated English engineer
of that name, sent . out by Baron de
Tuyil in 1832 to purchase land for
settlement. Fifteen hundred acres
were purchased at the mouth of the
river which was given the same
name, and were surveyed in 1883.
Settlement was very slow during the
early years. The first schoolhouse was
hstilt in 1816 and was a log building
situated near the bank of the river.
This building is still standing, hav-
ing been purchased by the late Dr.
N. W. Woods, and today, it forms part
of a summer home rented by Dr. 0. J.
Stogdill of Toronto. It was in this
schoolhouse that the first church ser-
vices were held.
-
By the year 1849 roads had been
opened up front the south, eastward
to the London road and northward to
Goderich, and settlement had in-
creased. Consequently the Rev, Rob-
ert Francis Campbell, rector of God-
erich, became the first rector of Bay-
field, and steps were taken to erect
a church building. The present struc-
ture is the original building, although
it has been improved from time to
time. It was erected in 1849, the
members of the building committee
being Dr, N. McWoods, James
Grainger and A. B. Brownson. The
rectors who served the parish during
the past ninety years were the Rev-
erend Robert Campbell, Robert
James Roberts, S. DuBourdieu, Wm.
Daunt. Evans Davis, Thos. Watson,
A. C. Forbes, Robert MrCosls, George
13. Taylor, James Walter Hodgins,
F. G. Newton, John Wm. Hinde, H.
J. Condeil. E. G. Rickard, Wm. Ashe-
Everest. R. C. Pitts, P. 13. Colclough,
F. H. Paull, W. H. Bugler and the pre-
sent rector, the Rev. John Graham.
Among the first families of the con-
gregation are to be found the follow-
ing names: Woods, Grainger, West-
lake, Snowden, Logan, Johnson,
Brownson, Gower, Beattie, Eden,
Adams, Roche, Bratten, Elliott, Stin-
son and Williams.
W. J. Elliott and William Scotch -
mer have been wardens for several
years, and Russell Heard is the
treasurer. Mrs. Woods, widow of the
late Dr. Ninian Wildridge Woods, has
been the organist for many years.
and together with other members of
the Woods family has rendered splen-
did service to the church. There is a
flourishing branch of the Woman's
Auxiliary the president being Mrs.
John Graham. The Guild also has
made a splendid contribution to the
church and its work; the president is
now Mrs, Yorke. There is also a
flourishing Sunday school Mr. Samuel
Widcombe, Mrs. R. H. Gairdner, Mrs.
John Graham, Mrs. Yorke, and Mrs.
Basset being the teachers. The presi-
dent of the Young People's Associa-
tion is Mrs. Fred Weston.
WATER POWER AT WALKERTON
(Toronto Star)
"Down by the old mill stream"
might well be the most popular song
in Walkerton, Bruce county seat, for
it is one of the few towns in Canada
in which leading industries are still
run entirely by water.
Ninety years ago an Irish immi-
grant named Joseph Walker, who
gave the town its name, was in-
trigued by the possibilities of the tur-
bulent rapids on the lower Saugeen
!:ver, He settled there, throwing the
first dam to provide power for his
sawmill.
Today, two flourishing factories
draw the power to turn their wheels
directly from the Saugeen's rapids--
rapid
apids-rapid no longer. Scattered here and
there about the province are few old
grist mills turned by water wheels,

A C MPANY EVER' CANADIAN
MAY WELL BE PROUD OF
From tiny beginnings an an Ontario farm ninety years ago, Massey -
Harris has grown steadily, until now it is the largest maker of farm
implements in the British Empire. 1
Keeping pace with and helping onward Canadian agriculture,
it has also, since the Eighteen Eighties, spread out to most lands beyond
the seas. Romance fills the years and experiences of the Company in
its ventures abroad, A Canadian company with Canadian headquarters,
it is today as solidly entrenched in the business of a score of other
countries as it is in its native land.
Transacting business in 52 countries in addition to Canada, in
the languages and currencies of these various countries is as fasci-
nating as itis profitable. For while the exigencies of crops and conditions
may vary the Company's fortune in these lands, yet it is a fact, that in
the years from 1928 to 1937, because of this export business, Massey.
Harris spent, in Canada $21,261,763 more than the total revenue from
its sales in Canada. Surely a valuable asset to our country and a
Canadian achievement of which we may all be justly proud.

out of use,
