11 4,, w
�.r;, ,Speaking in the Housie of Com-
( mons last week, Hon. Charles A.
Dunning, Dominion Minister of Fin-
"
11. I
,F .
once, gave utterance to some very
"" plain truths that should be repeated
,..,:,;
I'llti• . again and again, until they are Im-
' preessed upon the minds of every
'` Canadian.
1
These are Mr. Dunning's state-
fry yr . , mentlsr: "Parliaments came into ex-
istence, originally, having as - one
primary purpose, that of preventing
' h; the King from spending so much of
•
,': ' the people's money. Today Parlia-
i ,
.. ment has become a body demanding.
M' : of the King, as represented by the
r
:" Government, than more and more of
y�,'' the people's money be spent. And
, 1' . ..
.. , that is not confined to _any one Gov
ernment or any one party in this .
r House;. we all know that it is the
,h I. , public demand upon the membership
r` here."
`w'It is the demand upon the naexn-
'' bers, and the threat of force to be
...1
;. . used against every member who does
'� -not accede to the demands made .up--
•
�
;, on him by his constituents, that has
�� largely -created the burden of taxa -

°."'111'.-. day, and under which we will con -

I: There have been extravagant gov-
11
.' T, ernmen'ts, of course. But no govern -
f' meet would dare to be extravagant
iZ.
. "., . unless it had the support of its fol-
.
lowers in the House, and no member-
x,
would dare to be extravagant unless
-�.,
`. he was backed by his constiltuents in
I.that extravagance.

minion treasury, or that they, will be

What we never seem to learn is
that the Government has no money
of itsown, and that when it spends -
money it is spending our money. And
until we do thoroughly learn that
fact, we might just as well make up
our minds that taxation will con-
,tinue to be burdensome, and to pay
them as cheerfully as we can.

It Brings An Uneasy Feeling
1.The European situation, as report-
ed by the press over the week -end,
brought rather an uneasy feeling to
the minds of the general public in
`this country.
President Roosevelt told a confer-
�ence of newspapermen on Sunday
that because of ominous reports
from . abroad, he 'might have to
hasten his return to Washington, in-
stead of spending two weeks, as he
had planned, on an ocean cruise.
. London, however, reports that the.
British Government is completely in
' the dark regarding what the A,men-
can President means when he refer-
.red to ominous reports. And it was
not clear as to what special ,news
could, have reached Washington.
Berlin and Rome papers are quite
outspoken. Well-informed quarters
in Berlin say that Germany has done
nothing that could be regarded as
ominous and even hints that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is indulging in delib-
erate manoeuvres to stimulate the
armament market. .
From Rome comes the statement
that the President was indulging in
theatricals. The statements from
both these latter countries may be
trines bi -A the same time the peo-
ple of this contibent are rather in-
clined to accept Mr. Roosevelt's opin-
ion, as against either those of Berlin
or Rome, much as, in this instance;
they would like to believe them.
Certainly the war situation in
Europe does not seem to be clearing,
nor is it likely to, for some time to
come. .
Another Bad Week -End
Winter, ,gn the whole, has been a
most enjoyable one. There has not
been too much snow, nor too much
cold, and there has been a fair
amount of -sunshine.
But a peculiar feature of this win-
ter has been that all our really bad
weather has come over the week-
ends. Christmas week -end brought
us the most snow we have had in
y -
A later , week -end saw the snow
disappear as quickly as it came. Still
Iater week-end;3 have brought more
snow and cold, or more rain and
more mild' weather.
Itl fa,rs been one of the most
changeab,4V. nterls we have had in
S ere year ;,-i The middle of last week
the thermometer was away down be-
low zero, but we had another change
before the week was out. '
Last Sunday was a day -of pouring
rain. The rain did not cause any
damage here, but other' parts of
Western Ontario were by no mean's
so fortunate. In London two inches
of rain fell in fifteen hours, equalling
the record set in the 1937 disastrous
floods in that city, but on this ocea-
• scion'ere was no flood danger.
At+� t., Thomas] and Port Stanley
the situation became dangerous and
in the town of Paris a foot of surface
water covered the main street, flood-
ing the cellars in stores, homes and
schools, and several sections of high-
ways were under water.
'By Monday it was cold again, and,
Sidewalks, highways and many fields
were sheets of ice. Traffic, however,
eras- never held up, although it was
pretty slithery going until a little
sunshine melted 'the ice on the high-
ways -
And still we have March to con-
tend with. But we doubt if even
March will be able to produce airy --
thing new in -the line of changeable
weather. • .
