THE HURON EXPOSITOR
SEAFORTH, Friday, June 16th, 1922.
PARLIAMENTARY LETTER
The debate wound up, if not in a
blaze of glory, at least in a flood of
words. The three leaders had spoken
in the first two days of the week, but
there were still some of their follow-
ers who figured there was something
to be said on behalf of their constitu-
ents. Though ever? argument that
. could be made fur or against the Bud-
get had already been made long since,
the baekrbenchers had to have their
eay, and they said it.
The speeches of the t •n.• leaders
were interestil:
M tar •arcr liked
-.
neither the But •.• 'i' site Drayton
amendment to it, sir in order to find
a middle course, !te moved a sub -
amendment which declared against
continuance of the principle of pro-
tection. !Subsequently this was ruled
out of order by the Speaker who had
spent some hours conning the -prece-
dents to cover the case and who ruled,
with many of his predecessors, that
there could be only one amendment
to a motion to go into either commit-
tee of supply or committee of ways
and means. Mr. Crearer was peeved
et the outcome, naturally, and appeal-
ed to the Hcruse. Only his own fol -
Sowers voted for him in the appeal
and it went down to defeat by a ma-
jority of 57.
The Progressive party at the mo-
ment presents an interesting com-
lplexity of opinion. There are many
of its members who would like to vote
for the Budget; none who will vote
for the Drayton amendment, and -dot
a few who are between the devil and
the deep sea since their own attempt-
ed anteadment was disallowed. In
private conversation many of them
admit that they haven't anything bet-
ter in mind than Mr. Fielding has laid
before them; they have their objec-
tions to the Budget but they admit
that they could not do better. If
there were a few changes, which, by
the way, they might be able to make
while in committee on the resolutions,'
they eould accept it and they would
like to. On the other 'hand, a group,
chiefly composed of the Alberta
twelve apostles, will vote against the
Budget on the ground that it is not
• what they expected and not what they
wanted.
Writing in advance of the vote be-
ing taken, one would be very strong-
ly tempted to say that the Progressive
Party will divide.
Some have openly declared that they
eannoteee through Mr. Crearer's free
trade glasses and that they think this
budget is a step in the right direc-
tion. None of them but .mnlst admit
that the country needs revenue, ,and
while there is talc of a tax on vacant
lands to replace other taxes, none of
the responsible members of the Party
!have urged it upon the Government
very strongly.
4
Mr. Crearer was not in particularly
. good form for his speech. Something
was lacking When he got up; it was
evident, that he did not want to smite
the Government hip and thigh and that
he was quite averse to acceptance of
the Drayton amendment. He attack-
ed the Budget, however, on the
grounds that it was a continuance
lace of
Protection. Mr. Ring, when
came, denied absolutely that such was
the rase. He pointed to the di-'ShvI-
ties facing every section of the coun-
try and every class of Canadians.
Could the Government wisely have
gone further than it did? he asked the
Douse. Every step which has been
trade had been away from protection.
The Finance Minister had lowered the
duties on the implements of produc-
kion in the basic industries and had
done his best to make the burden of
taxation fall less lightly upon the poor
and mare heavily upon the richer clas-
ses. The charge that this was a Pro-
tectionist Budget was entirely un-
founded.
The Prime Minister's -contribution
was short but meaty. Instead . of
wasting 'hours of the time of the
Nouse in flights of oratory. Rt. Zion.
Mr. King confined his remarks to the
matter in hand, except for pointing
out to the Conservatives, who were
loudly proclaiming breeches of faith,
that they were in the position of
people who lived in glass houses and
therefore could not afford to throw
stones.
* * m
The Leader of the Opposition was
typically Meigthenesgye in his delivery
end his material. In the main his
speech, oshieh continued for over two
hours, was a condemnation of the
Government for as he alleged, having
broken faith with theeople and al-
so of condemnation fotithe Progres-
sives, be declared, were going ha -me
emptyshanded; they !had not got any-
thing they wanted.
All bleat they could tell their -constit-
uents when they got back home was
that .they .had been eom.pelied to fore-
go the Craw's Nest Pass Agreement;
•: • Iliad -perhaps received ah emasculated
Wheat Board; had failed to bring a-
bout tither a reduction in the cost of
living' or a subatantia•1 reduction in
the duties on the things whish they
were pledged to have placed on the
tree last. Mr. Meighens speech was
a ;i valid
Of polities and vitriol. At its
OU that 1t; '.

its delivery. As fedits effect on the
Rause or the country, • he thought it
would be nil.
.a ■
The Budget Debate out of the way,
the House ous will turn its attention to
e
+putting through the resolutions and
getting everything irp shape for the
grand finale. There aye many Dilat-
ters to be dealt with, such as the
Wheat Board, re-establishment, and
the railway rates. It is hoped to have
most at them out of the way and the
decks cleared for 'action by about an-
other two weeks. The end should be
in sight by June 20th, at least; for
with the arrival of the but weather
the members are anxious to shake the
dust of Ottawa from their shoes and
get back amongst the cows and chick-
ens, or whatever foam of outdoor life
they favor during the summer months.
Interest in the Budget has changed
to impending modifications in taxation
proposals, Indications that changes
are at hand were given by the Prime
M inister.
"The Minister of Finance," be ob-
served, when the House was discuss-
ing when the vote should be taken,
"will doubtless wish to make a state-
ment to the House in the Sight of
discussion here and of representations
made to him, and may possibly sug-
gest some 'modifications in the .propos-
als now before the House."
Of the nature of the "modifications"
Mr, King 'gave no inkling, although
changes in the
proposed stamp tax
on cheeks are generally thought to be
included.
Sir Lomer Gouin's speeeh is regard-
ed as of particular importance to its
possible bearing on the coming cru-
cial division on the main budget mo-
tion.
"With the Liberal Party," he aver-
red. "the main concern respecting
tariff is not free trade or protection.
It is revenue." He agreed that agri-
culture was the basic industry, but
emphasized the need of manufactur-
ers.
"Abolish the tariff?" he queried.
"No Government could think of it,
and it could not du it if it tried."
There has been talk of two million
people having left Canada.
"I may be wrong," commented Sir
Lomer Gouts), "but in my opinion if
-we had in this country more manu-
facturers we should have kept with
us many of those who left to go else-
where."

ulate Russel, and while reporting ex-

great pleasure to report that Mr.
Louis A. McKay, the eldest son of
Principal McKay, has taken first place

Classics. It will be remembered that
Louis, before entering the University
and while attending the Clinton Col-
legiate, carried off the first ;place in
all the subjects, winning scholarships
and now in the University hoe taken
first place in First Class Honors.

distinctions and that during many
past years as the boys entered the
colleges and Universities and engaged
afterwards in Professions and high
callings in life.

ing.—The very heavy rains, or what
might be termed cloud burets, on

larger sized tide in our main drains.
It would be to the benefit of nearly
every resident of our village to have
larger tile to carry off quickly the
torrents of water that come in such
downpours of rains, es the many
catch basins that we now have all
over the village call for large tile.—
