'Mr. Mae/ asserted that the farm, ie..not_ getting a fair deal from the igetributien of his oducts;' he found Muth fault with both the hog and egg grading systema, charging tin- 4ir relneeification, arid giving a few eetatiemi; Which sounded convincing. Piekers arguments eertairdV ;Sounded good to the writer; however, the Minister o4 Agrieulture could riot _ agree vtrith Mr. Pitkers 'views and gave quite an. interesting address in support of iriseContentions -after: the ffisposal of this' resolution. The ;House tamed its attentime:to the resolution. of' Pr. DesIegien4er, Liberal. The crux of the resolution Was to -the effect that thie ;House is Af the opinion that, in the public in- terests; the Federal Government e:atoteld, exiointi4oPyintinittee in order " tie:control the rtatien of all auels, in Canada. "Shameful exploitatiqp" • was the term applied by Dr. Des-. (Laurier in his oresta-ught on the ?coal business. , (While he avoided reference to the -ease now sub-jaclice .atethanots tbe claim wee made that coal, laid down • fiViontreel at $6 per ton, may cost 'the corieumer $20, by the time it 'gets to hinn and when ice and snow add to " ite weight, Another . claim wat that the Government itself is stuck in that it bas to supply` money for the purehaee of coal font-relief.e.Theee- fere Government control advo- aated. Mr. Deslauriere was seppera- . ed en a vigorous speech by Mr. Den- nis. Liberal, Montreal. Hon. Mr. Gordine NE/lister of La- bor, briefly pointed out that if there is evi„dence of a eombine, any six citizeng, can make application for an investigation; however, there has an investigation going on for.. eeme tiine and, some of the importers have been fined, but the contentinn :le' that ,the ,fine did net amoent to " anyeltheit, and has really not helped 'the sitriatien. Mr. Smith, Conservative, of Cum- berland, talked the resolution out, by an address which really had no beer- ing. Oa the facts as brought to light, but was simply a member pouring out his gratitude for whet the Gov- , eminent had done for the coal com- panies it the Province of Nova Scotia. Having been talked out it will profbably be heaed no more of this session. the price spread committee they bad one of the big men in the pack- ing induetry giving evidence, Mreafe- Leann bead" of the Canada Packeia.

The resolution introduced by Mr, Coote read as "Than all the words -after that ibe struck' out and the following inserted; In the opin- ion of this House the Government Should' give furthee consideration -to the matter of ;providing that the 'stock of the proposed !Central Bank should beowned lby the Government, and that the Cromernreent:at the direetion ofthe said bank shotfid lie"appointed. by the Governor-in-Couneil." The Minister 'of Finance noipted out that this amendment was entire- ly .eut of order. Mr. King, Leader of the Opposition, who spoke before .14e. Coote, had already made it per- fectly clear 'that the official opposi- ; tibn recognized that it was only the ,eiriniciple of the bank„ or in other weeds, were we, to have a central bank or not that, was involvied.at the present time, and as the Liberals were comeratted to a central bank policy, they del not intend to delay its progress at this tiine, but did re- serve the right to suggeSt suitable amendments in comarsittee, which would all be dealt with en third read- ing. sin spite of this "'declaration by the Leader of the Official Opposition, the Independent Group launched their amendment, only to have it ruled out a order, Mr.. Boues,ssa also agreed that their amendment was not in or- der: This piece of strategy an the part of the C. C. F. was in keeping with their action in bringing in an (amendment to the Address • in reply to the effect that His Majesty's loyal Opposition had lest the confidence of the country. However, some good speeches were made by Ross Gray, Liberal; William Irvine, C. Q. F., and Ed. Garland, C. C. F. Mr. Woods- -worth adjourned the debate. an the price spread cemlneittee the 'intern of massed buying from the angle of those opposed to it was cent-, lilated before the Stevens' Committee. eMreeiWarten Cook of the ,g_arment nianufactueers—a superior 'sert Of witness—levelled against big business an indictment of many counts, in- cluding the tharge that many well- known breeds of .tlothes are often fraudulently represented as being on sale; that the legittraate manufactur- er cannot compete, and generally, that in many ways merchandising is carried op with scant regard to Nisi- ress ethics. an the Banking 'Committee Chubby Power's Liberal resolution, referred to a few days ago, was allowed' -to stand over for further' consideration, while Williann Irvine moved an amendment to the power resolution, that if the interlee.lcing directorate's are to "be ;discessed ellen he. thought that the whole monetary system should be -dis- cussed eed suggested that Major Mega Douglas from London.
