A SACRED CONCERTthe moment and seeking a solution of our difficulty. The C. C. F. has no quarrel with individuals but in methods. People of to-day were raised on a philosophy of hard work and thrift and both became virtues. People in high places still speak of hard work and thrift and what they forget is that with our present day machinery we have solved the mat ter of production. Apparently the difficulty in all lines is that we have more than we can use. This is true of farm products, furniture, boots and shoes and practically all lines The present day methods of trying to solve the Solution are wrong. Ex cellent people are still trying to solve the problem by methods used in times of scarcity. Farmers have suffered more than any other group except the unemployed. Farmers have had to take sixty per cent. cut. We are suffering from over produc tion. Suppose everyone worked half ; as hard again, how will the adding ; sur plus get us out of the depression. “If the Canadian people are go ing to set about setting their house in order they must take their poli tics more seriously.” said Miss Mc Phail. Federal politics are because they deal with tariffs and taxes. Money is est of our problems and settled first. People say save but the speaker does that the Federal government must save, she favored a program of pub lic works to put money into circu lation, stating that the federal gov ernment must spend extensively but not extravagantly along this line. Money should be put into circulation without interest. To-day there 1? $700,000,000 less in circulation than there was in 1929. Economy should not be practiced by the federal government and the government should not attempt to balance its budget. Canada in the past has bor rowed altogether too much New York charges, resources for Wall Street to loan money on it is surely sound enough to issue oui’ own credit. A National Bank should be set up, not operated by bankers, but by people who are in terested in the welfare of the people of Canada—a people’s bank. Money then, could be fed into the arteries of trade as the country needs it This would make for increased em ployment. As long as money is con trolled by a group of individual! little can be done to improve the situation. Canada’s money should be brought to parity with the pound sterling. Why should Canadian farmers lose 30c. on every dollar of produce sold in Liverpool? The Rhodes budget provided for an agri cultural stabilization fund, but this Miss McPhail contended was the wrong way to do it as she strongly suspected it meant more money for the packer and she was greatly (interested in them. Markets are decreasing only substantial market is chasing power of the masses, policy should be directed towards the assistance in the consumption or goods and produce. What’s the sense of multiplying goods unless we learn to distribute and consume. In the opinion of the C. C. F. fed eral taxation should be lifted from the backs of the wage earners and placed squarely upon the backs of accumulated capital Instead of tax ing sugar and other necessary ar ticles surplus capital should be tak en to the state in taxation. The plat form of the C. C. F. was to put human rights first; not to take away private property but to bring about a more equal distribution. Mr. Irvine Mr. Irvine began his remarks witn a review of conditions and. stated that the agricultural population had been producing goods at less than cost. been growing and the producer is taxed more to keep these people in idleness. Exports have dropped; rev enue has dropped but interest debts are growing. The time has conie for a hew economic system, a system that will produce and distribute all goods necessary for human life and happiness. Every country has pro duced an actual surplus.
