PARLIAMENTARY LETTER With polls still to hear from, the majority of the farmer candidate in Medicine Hat riding has soared away above the 9,000 mark and the sad news has been cabled to Premier Meighen. According to the cable despatches coming from the confer- ence of Premiers overseas the news considerably affected the stand of the Canadian delegate for fullest public- ity, etc., etc. The news of the gov- ernment's overwhelming defeat has brought home to the Imperial author- ities the fact that Premier Meighen and his government do not represent Canadian thought in their journeys overseas, and while there are confer- ences on such things as Empire, Naval, Air and Military Defence, with Hon. Hugh Guthrie sitting on a Committee, it has become evident to the authorities who are behind the conference that Premier Meighen can- not bind Canada to anything at the present time. Because of that it is iikely that the outcome of the con- ference will rather be expressions of pious hopes than anything more sub- stantial. The investigation into the pay ex- change scandal has begun and it gives every promise, if allowed to deiet,ep as it should, of growingf growi ng :ui :- tga,.t.,k Lao '..int 'A in dozen people have been implicated by witnesses whose names have been withheld front publication by the commission or counsel for the gov- ernment 'Thousands ofdollars otters of the people's money have been wrong- fully • paid out without t ut any respons- ible officer of the government trying to keep any check on payments and 'there is plenty of evidence which points to continued loose handling of public moneys, such as was prevalent during the war period. The result of the commission's en- deavors will not he known for some time. At present only the fringe has been touched upon, and the scandal seems like a snowball, grow- ing bigger the farther it is rolled. The evidence before the commission consists of a repetition of attempts to "pass the buck" and many attempts are being made to hang the blame on a couple of minor officials who were allowed to retain thousands of dollars in English currency in their office for as long as nine weeks be- fore making any return to the Fin- ance Department. The official ill charge of the depart- ment which is now being investigated was: apparently so overloaded with work, between running up' to the Howe of Commons to advise his minister in nutting through estimates and running back and forward to ether officials of the Department, that he was unable to carry out his work as he would have liked to do, and simply had to leave the work of supervising his department to sub- ordinates. When these men fell down on the job the Chief Account- ,rnt was baned, though apparently, he was overloaded with work. It is expected that the continuation of the hearings will bring forth some startling facts as to how the public money was handled, if the investiga- tion is allowed to run through its proper course. The government is in the midst of an attack of dog days. The few minister' who are in the capital are having a hart time carrying on the business of the count.:y and practic- ally ::otl ing is being (brie in the why ref r,,ia t t de. i si,ns.
