In all this talk about Beauharnois no one seems inclined to suggest a remedy. The fact stands up like cur- ve signs on a provincial highway. Candidates seldom have the money necessary for an election. Funds for campaign purposes do not drop on the needy like dew from heaven. 1. Campaign funds are necessary.

Real , Independence Greater than all these is the fact that it would establish in the House of Commons the actual independence fthe individual member. What hap- pens today muter the present system? If a man desires to be independent he is in grave danger, • The party whipsmay whisper to frim that if he exhibits his independence too strong- ly he may find himself "left lone- some" ' at election time. "Left lone- some" is a pleasant means of saying that he may be without campaign funds when election day carries round, Beyond question there are at least 200 constituencies in Canada where a $4,000 appropriation would be suffic- ient to pay the legitimate expenses of the candidate. You would there- fore have 200 members sitting in the House of Commons owing nothing to party funds or party contributions, Is this solution perfect? Is it the only one? I dont know, At least it offers a hope, it is an honest and fair attempt to arrive at the solution of the problem. It is not new. It has been suggest- ed before. It was mentioned in Eng- land many years ago, it was suggest- ed by the late Hon. W. S. Fielding A. W. Neill, Ind. M.P.; for Connox- Alberni, B.C., brought it up in times past in the House of Commons. It ought to be revived, discussed and reconsidered in the light of existing facts.
