have toiled for four months without

could not under any circumstances be

isperfectly obvious that there never
Iwas a company and that the three men
,ill question are personally liable for
this amount. That is, if they are dir-
ectors of the company and the circum-
stances are as stated, their conduct
has been such as to make thein per-
sonally liable. The government will
take steps to investigate the matter
thoroughly and will not mind expend-
ing some looney if it is necessary for
the purpose of prosecuting them for
theft if the facts are as stated. But
to ask the government to pay because
men have made improvident bargains
is something that will not be found
in any of the relief acts and certainly
has not been advanced in What has
been said within the last few minutes.
!It is quite clear that there never has
;been a case with respect to any of
{these farmers where it is alleged that
there was any failure to supply the
equipment f
or carrying
the cattle. tl
e.
The.
representations } esentations were that the govern-
ment had supplied stalls and put them
on the ships. It is admitted that these
stalls were supplied. It is admitted.
further that the cattle were carried on
the ships. The government assumed:
no responsibility for the ships. Lloyds
—I assume—or some other firm, were
the insurers and satisfied themselves
because the work was done with the
approval of the Board of Trade so -
far as the equipment was concerned.
But if these amen are worth the money
they are liablecivilly and they are
liable criminally. The government
will investigate both phases of the
matter and if there is any assistance
that can be given for the purpose of -
securing the return of the money stol-
en from there men under the circum-
stances as stated, we will give it. It
will be time enough later to consider
what the position of the government -
maybe.
