PARLIAMEN'T'ARY LETTER The intimutiun received here a few dare ago to the effect that the Greek Government %%veld not meet the interest charges on the money ad- ' vaned to it by Canada caused little surprise; in fact, it had been expected acme time ago, that this "loan" _ would be en the same basis as that to Rumania. To Joseph Archantbault member for ('harably-Vercherea gee; the credit for bringing out the farts in connection with these "leans" and for showing how, even during the strenuous days of war and recenstruc- tion, the government was able to help its friends the manufacturers to get rid of it lot of stir:Mae materiel which they had piled up in their stock room,, or to give them orders for the manufacture of new com- modities and thus continue their war- time profits: Usually, the returns to orders, of the House are of the dry -as -dust or- der. but at time., one of them is tilled with a wealth of information which shows which way the political winds blow, and hew the powers that be temper the winds „f adversity to the e'•turn lambs. In prepare:1.n for his speech, Mr. Archantbault had placed a series of questions en the Order Paper to lir• Cotnnwn.i, anal after preassing for two 'years for the carte, he sought he wa- enabled to give the to , . House e •nc t- and ,.i.

Sir, Archambaelt's speech caused sonic consternation in the guv- ernment ranks, es]''',':eily when he observed that he had dealt with the same subject at the previous session and thought his remarks then would have had some effect. Sessional Paper 147 brought dew• in answer to Mr. Anehsrnball] c's yeas tions showed that et' sine $27,000,001 spent on these credits, only three am one-half million had been used t, purchase foodstuffs and the rest ha, gone for manufactured articles whit the friends of the government wer ,iproducing• for sale: Military stores and equipment to the value of two million dollars event to these court - tries at prices much ;ower than the - people of Canada could buy then for at home, and the countries to which they were supplied iiltve not even paid the inter.•;; en the monies. The Government's figures supplied to Mr. Arrhanlbault showed roofing contract.; for .Smi.nnn to The Brantford Roofing Co.. of which W, F. Cock- shutt, M.P., for Brantford, is a di- rector.

"I know what. the answer of my ;honora e bl frii•r.rl s will be" Mr. :1r- - chamtbault declared on the floor of the House. "They will say that they lade not personally sold to the gov- ernment, and that tete , Covernmont notfar bought r g the Can adian•, n 1 but. for Rumania and Greece- Tecr h- nically, they arc right; as a matter of -law, we could net succeed if I he matter came before the courts, They Fare .within the letter of the law, hut Elie, they are not within the spirit Hof the law- •. r, This law w ass.d as e to prevent, vent thevernttyen P government from winning the in. of members -or senators by ng goods• from then or from the e011spanies in which they had the -interest.

"This transaction will throw a shadow of doubt on the independence of Parliament. But, Bir, it is per- fectly in line with the standard of morals held by this government. "When the Prime Minister endors- ed the attitude, and could see nothing wrung in the letter written by the Minister of Customs and Inland Revenue to the French Purchasing Commission, seeking business, as a cabinet minister, for the private firm Jif Nagle and Wligniore, of St. John, it was up to the high standard of morality which has characterized this government all along." It was perhaps significant that there was no answer to the state- ments of Mr. Archambault though the session lasted some twenty days after he had made the above speech.
