FEDERAL ELECTION CAM- PAIGNS TO BE SHORTER Ottawa. --The new 'Franchise Act of, which diem Hugh ,Guthric, minis- ter of justice, gave .a very general but also a very clear and persuasive out- line in the House last week, zontem- plates reforms that are rather radical. They are not in the elections law but in the .prevailing •method. 01 pre-, paring- voters' liets. In place of one act there will he two. The Old oac •relates to the machinery of elections; the new one to the .franchise and the lists. Several designs are behind the projected statute. One is expedition in bringing on elections. Another is the promotion. 'uf simpticity. A third, and very appropriate ,purpose in these days, is the .cheapening of elections on the principle of the shorter the cam- paigii the less the cost. !While these Points were the ones stressed by Mr, Guthrie,. Iperhaps In no sense infer- ior to any of them is a, method de- signed effectively to eliminate im- personation, especially in city ridings. As viewed by the minister of jus- t ice sponSoring the legislation in ,parfiameet, the present law is, defect- ive rin that it is "curnbersome, dilat- ory and expensive." Then, explain- ed, the Main objective of :having pre- pared basic lists and afterwards t ose eauteee.. which will always be ready for 'gen- eral or by-elections, There will be a great difference. Now, roeghly, it re- quires a period of 60 days between diseolution and polling, Under the new law, voting can -lake place in ,,?,S days,--perhap$ 215 after parliament is dissolved. The time-saver will be in having the list which will be enumer- ated this autumn. The operation is to be under a franchise commiesiouer with a registrar in each county. Noth- iag was said about the franchise nue- lification, the Presumption being that it will be the same es it is now with minor exceptions. The resolution was passed by the House 01 Commons after Considerable debate but no great opposition to the principles of the bili was advanced. Briefly; the bill proposes to make the following changes in the present regulations: Appoint a franchise' commissioner for all Canada. Appoint revising officere ie every conetituency. lAppoiet one or more enumerators ie every polling district, to prepare the first list, lIminediate preparation by enumer- ators of a voters' list for alt Canada to be kept ready at Ottawa, and to stand for 112 month periods as a clos- ed dist, 1List to be completely revised. every 112 months: Voters in urban districts to accom- pany registration with signed state- ment so that signature may be corn - pared to Obviate ,impersonation at the polls. The list to be geognaphical rather thai . alphabetical, or both. There is no .change in the actual machinery of oenducting an election arid very little in the cetiali.fications for franchise, the mein consideration be- ing given to. the list of voters.

Fourteen thousand eight hundred and forty-three happy holidaymakers can't be wrong, or so the Canadian Pacific Steamships expect to prove this summer with four short sea, cruises 'by the Duchess of Richmond between Montreal and New York. During the last three summers two Duchess liners have made between them eleven of the nine day trips, the popularity or which has been shown by the fact that 14,843 passengers were carried eta these vacation cruises. The Duchess of Richmond's cruise departures from Montreal will be on July 21, July 31, August 10 and August 20, and from Quebec the evening of the same day.

All the "trimmings" such as characterize a lengthier cruise have been planned for the Duchess of RIchmond'e nine day cruises, and each day of the trip down the majestic St Lawrence and around the scenic coasts of Nova, 'Scotia and New England will be a complete experience in itself. Facilities for enjoyment, both in exercise and relaxation, include an open-air swimming -pool, a gyranasium, deck -tennis, horse -racing, shuffleboard and many' other sports, and also the opportunity for lazy do -nothingness, for which no better medium can be found than a comfortable clock-chalr on a long sunny afternoon.

The purchase price was SUMMER SATISFACTION (IBy Barbara .13. Brooks) It seem as though summer meals are the most palatable and attractive and can, be planned and prepared more easily thaeat any other season, Yee 'how many times have you heard housewives 'lament about cooking during the hot weather? With an ab- undance of fruits and vegetables from which to choose and with the many ready-to-etui , footle available, meal preparation shouldenot be difficult. Even in the summer, plan well- balanced meats, but avoid the use 01 too many concentrated and rich foods, Nature provides the ideal summer heedis infruits, vegetables, milk, eggs and whole -grain cereals. Dos not go to the extremes of eat- ing all cold foucls, just because it is a hot day, No matter how warm the weather, a meal with at least one hot dish is usually welcome. This is true even for breakfast. Fresh fruit served with ready -to -eat cereals and cold rich milk or cream and a hot bever- age make a refreshing and satisfying morning meal. Luncheon or supper may be simpli- fied by planning the meal around one hot dish, such as creamed vegetables fish, eggs or deft -over cooked meats. Serve on toast or toasted halves of whole-eheat biscuit. -Vary by pour- ing the creamed mixture into a hot capscrole. Top With buttered corn flakes and serve at once. The corn flakes are toasted and crisp so that the nvixture need not be browned in the oven. A green salad or frutt des- sert, bran muffins or whole-wheat bnead, and a beverage will complete this meal.

It is an annual wed of European origin end is usually found in Red Clover and occasionally in :WWII fields. It is parasitic in nature, pesseeses no leaves and de- rives its nourishment through stickers attached to the host plant. The circular gives a complete de- ecription of the weed ant declares that Ontario's clover seed export bu- sinees, valued at hall a rancill dol- larwill be seriously threatened if Dodder is allowed to cominue in this province, at suggests that as soon as Dodder is noticed, the infested pat- ches ehould he mowed and the refuse raked and burned. Badly infeeted fields should be cut early for hay and the land plowed, great care should be taken to secure clover and alfalfa seed free from Dodder. "Dodder can be eliminated by a strenuous five-year program. oi co- operative effort," it is stated. "No clover field known to contain Dodder should he saved for seed. Every pur- chaser of clover seed should insure himself of securing Dodder -free seed by first havieg a sample analysed. This can be done by forwarding a twoeounce representative sample to the Dominion Seed Branch, 86 Collier St., Toronto."

Very .few of us as we begin our holidays arc in good physical train- ing. We are mostly tired and unfit after the winter's work.

General improvement in busi- ness is apparent throughout Can- ada although many problems still remain to be solved is the opinion of Jackson Dodds, general man- ager of the Bank of Montreal, who sailed for Europe aboard the Em- press of Australia recently. The Canadian Pacific 42,500 -ton Atlantic flagship Empress of Britain completed her world cruise of 30,910 nines last month. on arrival at New York and sail- ed again Lor Cherbourg and Southampton to be fitted for her normal season sallings between, Southampton and Quebec.

"With a soundly administered unified system, Canada would be able to anticipate within a rea- sonable period of time, a balanced railway budget and would be able to finance any justifiable exten-e sins which expanding settlement' and development might in future demand," E. W. Beatty, K.C., chairman and president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, declar- ed in a recent speech advocating unification, for administrative purposes of the two major rail-, trays.
