The House spent the afternoon on
the items in the trade agreement and
made 'fairly good progress. The tariff
question as usual' created quite an ar-
gument between eastern and western
members.
This is, of course, an annual affair
and after listening to the arguments

the conclusion that the old stony' that

Gardiner continued on his bill regard-
ing the work now cardedon in. the
Western Pretences. Flon. H. H. Stev-
ens and Dr. Manion protested against
the 'powers given the minister under
this bill. They waxed eloquent in
their criticism of it, but the minister
-reminded them that it is practically
the same ure'atsure that the Conserva-
Live Government passed in 1935.

Wednesday, March 22
The international situation was
thardly mentioned today around Par-
liament Hill, although it wee, report-
ed
eported that Senator Meagher intended to
have a great deal to say about it.
There was a report, however, that
Germany was endeavoring to arrange
to have an air base in Iceland. If
that happened it would make Canada
quite vulnerable.
Rumors had it that Senator neigh -
en intended to make a strong plea for
a ready, aye ready, 'policy in support
of the United Kingdom. It is rather
strange to thank of the attitude he
takes now compared with tea, declara-
tion while in the Commons, .that a
referendum should be taken before
Canada could be committed to war.
The Canadian Government is being
advised daily as to the situation in
Europe and' it has every confidence in
Premier Chamberlain and his Govern-
ment handling an extremely delicate
situation.
In the House the sitting was con-
fined to a ddscuasaon of the importa-
tion of vegetable oil. Much was said
about it by the Oonservatives, but
they were sharply reminded that it
was the late Government that gave
edible oils free entry under the Unit-
ed' Kingdom agreements.

Thursday, March 23
The Trade Treaty largely monopol-
ized things in the House today, but
outside there were other discussions,
while some very important legislation
put in its appearance. One related to
wheat and its marketing. Other de-
tails are to come.
Tensity continues to prevail over
the situation abroad, and, things do
no look good. It is the general topic
for ddrscussdon and everyone hopes for

uric acid in a gentle way through the
natural channels. Renewed 'health
and vigor is the result.
there will be no surprise.
The items in the trade agreement
were considered and the House .cer-
tainly made good progress with this
measure. A debate flared up when
the 'automiobile tariffs were reached.
Men like Paul Martin, W. H. Moore,
N. J. Lockhart, and others in automo-
bile districts, were fighting against a
reduction in 'tariff and 'also the re-
moval of the excise tax. Western
members were all for the redu:etdorr.
R. J. Deachman gave figures to show
that the industries shad all fared 'bet-
ter under the Liberal lowtariff than
it did under the high tariff.
The argument today plainly inddcat-
eil the difficulties of governing this
country. Bad feelings are being stir-
red up in Quebec regarding Canada's
attitude in case of war, Mayor Houde
of Montreal is one of the leading
lights in this movement.
Friday, March 24
The debate on the tariffs on auto-
mobiles, which started yesterday, con-
tinued today and was carried on in
some cases with more heat than light.
The duty on, automobiles has been cut
from 35 per cent. 'under the late Gov-
ernment, to 171/z per cent. tinder the
trade agreements the proposal is to
remove the 3 per cent. excise tax
w,hich.wi'll then make an effective tar-
iff -of 1731 per cent. Paul Martin and
W. H. Moore, who represent ridings
where there are many automobile
workers, were all opposed to the re-
duction of this excise tax, while mem-
bers from the West were all for it.
Dr. Young (Lib., Saskatoon) read a
letter which he had received from one
of the auto manufacturers in w,'hdoh it
was pointed out what the tremendous
dividends were that were paid over
the years on an original investment
of $125,000.
After a lengthy debate the Finance
Minister left -no room for doubt as •to
where he stood in the' matter. It had
been contended that three firms had
left Canada already, but the Minister
said -it was foolish to suggest that
these three firms should have a pro-
tection- that would permit them to op-
erate when as .a matter of fact • they
were only making a few cars. The
Minister was not impressed' with the
story of firms such as the three large
firms leaving Canada.
During the private member's hour
from 8 to 9, the bill of Mr. Lacroix
was up for discuss.ion', It would give
the Postmaster General the right to
refuse to allow. Communistic litera-
ture to be sent through the mail. Pre-
viously tete Minister of Justice Thad
held that the Government had all the
authority it needed now.
Dr. Manion was all for the bill, but
it was opposed from many quarters
and was finally talked out.
Debts and Taxation
(By R. J. Deachman, M.P.)
There is a great deal of nonsense
about the debt of the Dominion -Gov-
ernment. Substantial reductions were
made between the years 1924 and
1930. During this period the debt was
reduced. by $276,000,000. 'Phee years
which followed, beginning with 1931,
brought about sharp additions to the
debt, duo primarily to two !lectors. the
core of unemployment relief 'and rail-
way' losses. Ihrring tihis . period the
debt increased by $840,000,000. net
there is something else we want to
keep in mind. Interest rates have de-
clined and interest charges on the
public debt are actually lower now
than they were in the years from
1921 to 1925 and they are $7,000,000
lower tine they were in 1934, one of
the depression years when debt bur-
dens were certainly difficult to boar.
Beside the bond's which represent
the debt are owned mainly in Canada.
What it really means is 'that all the
people of Canada owe some of the
people of Canada a considerable sum
of money, but th enation :is not beak -
rept nor is the total wealth reduced
by this" +process. It would of course
be pleasant to get rid of the debt,
but there are in reality bigger prob-
lems.
Other Expenses
The expenses of government' are
not the only expenditures which the
average citizen must meet. I checked
over the other day I the cost of mov-
ing -a ton of freight, or its equivalent
in -passenger traffic, one mile on our
railways. In 1913-14, the cost was
4.8 'mills or slightly testi than one-
half clout. In 1936 the oast was 8
mills, or four-fifths of a cent. This re-
presents, an increase of 67 per cent.
The price of .farm products is now
almost exactly at the price level of
1913, 'but are the things Which you
buy as cheap as they were in 1913?
They are far, from it. The increase
in taxation . is not the only factor in
adding to costs. Price increases
cheek demand and lead to unemploy-
ment.
It is extremelyrnteresting to see
bow your dollar of taxation • money is
spent.

Expect To Rebuild Anglican Church
One vannot kelp but admire the un-
daunted spirit of' the congregation of
Trinity Anglican Church, Mitchell, in
the face of the big kiss they sustain-
ed in the destruction of their church
with its entire contents on Sunday
moaning. In conversation with the
rector, Rev. R. C. Capper, he informs
us that a new church, whether small
or large, will be erected,. Of course
it. will take time, but that is the pres-
ent feeling of the congregation. The
A.Y.P.A. has shown its determination
to start things. Their ambition and
endeavour will be to secure 'hymn
books. This organization met at the
rectory on Monday evening and the
young people will work out some plan
to attain their aim.—Mitchell Advo-
cate.

Death of Thomas James Kelly
The 'many friends and relatives' of
the late Thomas James Kelly were
deeply grieved: to 'hear of 'his sudden
death at St. Jopeptln's Hospital on
March 19th. James Kelly was the
son of Mrs. Kelly and the late 'John
Kelly and 'had been bookkeeping in
Platteville ' for several months, later
taking up the home of his farther.
Though he passed to his eternal test,
his splendid example and 'numerous
works of charity will be sadly missed
by those left to mourn his departure,
including his mother, three sisters
and four brothers: Mrs. Joseph Man-
ley
anley (Calista), McKillop; Mrs. Dan
Finegan (Florence), Kinkora; Mrs.
Thomas Patten (Genevieve), Lug,
and Joseph, Fergus, McKillop; Leo,
Woodstock, and Basil, of Kinko-a.
His father predeceased him six years
ago. James Kelly was a• member of
the Holy Name Society and Propaga-
tion Of Faith. The funeral took place
from his late -residence on Tuesday,
March 21st, to. St. Patrick's Church,
Dublin, where Requiem High Mass
was sung by Father Ffoulkes. Rev.
Father Jordan was in the sanctuary.
The large number of mourners bore
etoqu'en't testimony of esteem in
which deceased was held by young
and old, Interment took place in Sit.
Patrick's cemetery. The pallbearers
were his three brothers and three
brothers-in-law: Fergus,. Basil and
Joseph Kelly, Dan Finegan, Joseph
Manley and Thomas Patten. May he'
rest in peace.
