Building permits are another index of whether business is good or bad. \\'ell, what do the Government's own figures show? They show that the value at permits in 56 cities during the first seven months of 1924 was lower by 17,6 per cent, than in the , corresponding months' of 1923, an11'by 19.6 per cent. than in '1922. The value of building permits for the first seven months of this year was only approximately $69,000,000- And this supposed to be a growing country.

Heading for Financial Rocks, • The' serious decline in the national revenue which' began, "With the • an- 1louacenlent' of the Government's fiscal proposals last April, was ac- centuated during August, That is to say the longer these are tried the more unfortunate the results. Re- turns issued by the Department of Customs and Excise show that dur- ing August customs coelectiots were $2,106,199 less than daring the cor- responding month last year, while the excise taxes brought in near four million less, making the combined de- crease slightly over 6 millions. It is also announced that during the first five months of the current fiscal year the revenue from these two sources fell off to the extent of 26 millions as compared with that for the correspolieiing period in 1923, In other words, Hon. 3. A. Roble has lost during' five months more revenue than he told parliament he expected to lose during the whole twelve, In customs .revenue alone 'he has lost $8,652,358, whereas he estimated that the loss would only be $1,225,000. The situation would not be so bad if expenditure were falling at the sante ratio, Blit instead of doing so, it is mounting. During the first four mouths of the fiscal year the increase on both current and captal account was $7,700,000. In other words, dur- ing the fust live months of the, fiscal year, the Government has gone be- hind to the extent of approximately $34,000,000, And the end is not yet, i\t the present rate of going there will be a deficit on this rear's opera_ tions of $60,000,(100. I•he notion that gond tinges are just around the corner, and that the corner will be soon turned, is all non- sense. The truth is that conditions will get worse before they got bet- ter. On this there is very general agreement. 'While Hon, 3. A \fur - duck stoutly defends the Govern- ment's tariff policy. some time ago he carie to the conclusion that there wen1,1 he considerable unemploy- ment this winter, and so he called a 1 cenieren e at Ottawa to discuss the situation Well, he got the surprise of his life, Criticism of the Govern- ment's tariff and other policies be- came so strong that he concluded that lie had better head it off by rifling it out of order, and he did so. After having realized 1115 mistake, he allowed a hill expression of opinion, and heard some more straight talk. The chief point hammered home was; ",How can you expect to have any- thing but unemployment as long- as you permit the cheap goods of other countries to be dumped here, thus de- priving our own people of work." Mr, Tool Moore, President of tate Trades and Labor Council, whom indeed this Government had made a C. N. R. Director, protested that the un- employment situation in Canada nave amounts to a crisis and demanded a special session of Parliament this fall to deal with it. Unenlployrnent and consequent privation are worse far than when the 300,000 who have left Canada were still, with us, Does any- one imagine this situation can be taken care of by forcing the erection of public works and thus adding further to our deficits.
