FROM THE 'DOMINION CAPITAL By Hhomas Wayling. In bygone days economic depression throughout Canada did not affect the • public services to any great extent, and the great Civil Service of the country continued on in the ordinary way; its activities curtailed some- what, but salaries and positions were unaffected. This year, however, the situation is serious. The national revenue is down $•100,000,000 and expenditures have increased. Two ways lay open to the government to make both ends meet; by rigid economy and by in- creased taxation. The main estimates tabled this week indicate the econ- omies and the Budget which will soon be down will break the news as to the increased taxation. No government on earth Could avoid the present depression, and both econ- omy and taxation increases were in- ,evitabl'e. In Parliament however, Government and Opposition forces will fight the issue out. The Main Estimates are about $38,- 000.000 under last year, which means at least $62,000,000 additional rev- enue must be found, entirely apart from the additional expenditures such as the $20,000,000 for unemployment and other emergency and special ex- penses. Unfortunately the savings in the Estimates are largely at the ex pense of the people employed in pub- lic services. For - t e Civil Ser- vice suffers severely. In the Interior Department alone, about 450 positions have been abolish- ed, due largely to the transfer of the Natural Resources to the Western Provinces. About $648,000 less will be paid in salaries than heretofore. Efforts have been made to absorb the Civil Service's new unemployed into other Departments, but curiously this has been -opposed by the Civil Serv- ants in some of .those departments who fear the absorption may inter- fere with their promotion; a selfish viewpoint, but a human one. The Main Estimates are made up from data supplied by the various De- partments of the Government, who estimate their financial requirements for the year ending March 31, 1932. All Deputy Ministers were instructed to exercise rigid economy and have had to cut the coat according to the cloth. The total of the estimates this year is $386,494,408, as compared with $423,722,163 last year. The income account of public works has been cut by $10,515,210. This amonut is the sum voted for the re- pair of the public buildings scattered throughout Canada. It is also noted that there is a reduction in the mote for the Welland Canal of $6,000,000 and there is no provision made for Olt Age Pensions or technical educa- tion. Undoubtedly these two amounts will require $10,000,000 or $12,000,000 more. The chief increase is in the inter- est on the public debt, the country having to pay $1,631,590 more than last year. This year provision has to be paid to pay off or refund $25,- 000,000 of the 1916 Public Service Loan and $52,931,600 of the war loan. The most drastic cut is made in the vote for the air mail routes. Can- ada's vast distances make the air mail and passenger service of great im- portance, and had these routes been allowed to develop logically it would have brought eastern and western Canada a day to three d'ay's journey nearer. It would have been possible by next year for an Ontario resident to (visit his son in Alberta, spend several clays and get back home by the following week end. The vote. however, has 'been cut from $900,700 to $100,000. The significance of this cut is found in the expenditures to be curtailed from Toronto to Windsor and from Winnipeg across the prairies, air -mail beacons and lighted air ports have been established. The :Government turns off these lights and leaves the airways dark, just as though all the iighltouses were closed on the St. Lawrence. As all the Western cities and many of those in the east have made heavy expenditures on equipping their air ports, the shutting off of the beacon and flood lights and other government services is a serious mat- ter. Further than that, it makes night flying dangerous and hazardous to pilots and passengers. Plans hail been completed for lighting the air- ' ways from Montreal to thea Maritimes.

Sed ithe Solicitor general to the *heckling of the House, but in the Rif Chamber, tributes were paid to the- .passing of ;Senator P. E. Lessard of Edmonton, who died recently, The Solicitor General, Hon. Mauve Dupre, Quebec West, was to have de- livered a speech on the Tuesday be. fere the recess. Advance copies were ae'nt to several Conservative newspa- pers in Quebec. On Tuesday howev- er, the Prime 1Viinister was busy with estimates and Mr. Dupre could not get the floor. He forgot to notify the newspapers who had his speech, and they published it. The joke came in when they were found to have ,add- ed very eulogistic ecomiunis as to the reception of the speech md to halve interlarded it with "Applause," "Loud Applause," etc. Major Power in mock seriousness, demanded the privileges of the House be upheld. This was a false report of the pro- ceedings and he resurrected a law of 1690 to enipbasize his point. Hon. W. R. Motherwell, ex -minister of agriculture, spoke on the present condition of the industry and assert- ed that in as much as the government had fixed wheat prices when they went high, they should not demure from pegging the price when they got too low. He saw also in the rejection of the Russian offer and tyre embargo on Russian goods, a possibility of Rus- sia flooding European markets next fall, just as the Canadian crop was being marketed, with disastrous re- sults to the Canadian farmer. Such a reprisal might well be expected of Russia. The House and Senate carried on business in a rather perfunctory man- ner on Tuesday, this being 'Miss Mil- dred Bennett's wedding day. T h e Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition were at the wedding and many of the members left the cham- bers to accompany their wive's and daughters to the wedding reception, which took place at the Chateau Laur- ier at four o'clock in the afternoon. Major Herridge, M.C., D.S.O., the groom, is Canada's new Minister to Washington. Both bride and groom are likeable and popular and as they are quite wealthy, they have every- thing that could be wished for, The day was a perfect bride's day, with brilliant sunshine. There is gossip now on Parliament HIM that inasmuch as the Prime Min- ister has lost his sister and has no longer a hostess, he will himself marry very shortly. His name is being coupled with that of a lady who has been seen much around with Miss Bennett of late and has been a close personal friend of the Prime Minister for some years. She is a few years younger than Mr. Bennett, and widow of a well known business man here. It is said that the announcement will be made two weeks hence. This of course is by way of gossip, but Par- liament Hill is not all politics and public business. There are many lad- ies down with their husbands and the social season is in full swing. Inci- dentally the G6vernor-General and the Countess of Bessborough were at the Herridge-Bennett wedding. AMATEUR OR UROFESSIONAL IS A MATTER OF SPIRIT We have long believed that the dis- tinction between amateur and profes- sional sportsmen has become antique, and that its perpetuation is useless or silly when its does not lead to hypo- crisy and graver evils. In the May Harper's, John R. Tunis discusses the confusions and contradictions which exist because of this distinction. He says that there are professionals who are really amateurs, and amateurs who are really prOfessionals, and that the true distinction between the two is a matter of spirit. Prom a moral point of view, the fact of a man's be- ing paid for a certain sport does not make him a professional. Some years ago a famous baseball player was heard exulting with another player that he was receiving several thous- and dollars a year for doing some- thing that he would have been glad to do for nothing. Mr, Tunis men- tions the incident of Jim Bottomley, St. Louis baseball player, who was suffering from an eruption of boils down one side of his leg, so that it was doubtful if he should get into uni- form. However, the game at issue had a great bearing upon the standing of the clubs at the end of the season and Bottomley played. 'At the end of the ninth innings with the score a tie he got a base on balls. The signal was given for him to steal second. He did so, but threw himself on his injured side and when he rose those on the bench could see his face twisted with pain. A moment later a hit brought him home with the winning run. After the game Branch Rickey, the presi- dent of the club, entered the dress- ing -room and saw Bottomle'y stripped on a rubbing table, his leg and side bleeding and covered with dirt. Rickey upbraided him for the reckless thing he had done. Then Bottoneley said that as he came into the base the second -base player was in such a position that if Bottomley had slid on his good side he would have been put out. If, however, he threw him- self on his throbbing side he had a good chance to intake the base. Here is an example of a professional who showed the true amateur spirit. Lei Diegal, the professional golfer, made the trip to Hoylake last year to play in the British open chain- pionship and earned his expense Money by a series of articles be wrote for an American newspaper syndi- cate. ,Since he was meking money directly out of golf he was obviously a professional. But at the same time Bobby Jones, amateur champion of America, was also competing at Hoy - lake and, writing articles for a syn- dicata of American papers. It would seem that he, 'too, was a professional. NeverthelesS, he was considered an amateur'. Last Fall he turned to the amateur status. The United States Golf .Alssociation accepted his resig- nation and announced that thereafter ha ` was, J ateu,r Ott StatesAcXet he' z sf ber of,;thps` e19 Club otSt.. the ru ,goy, ,1) ~ 1>1 •Gelar Kelt* throughout tine wok rT,k' H is eligible to .pl'ay • in the gri 0, .,' aateur ,epi: if he wants to, although gh he is a pre. fessional in the, United States. • Miss Mlary Browne is a professional tennis player. Yet she :pays golf as an amateur. %Viam; T. Tilden was an amateur one Thupsday, but the next day became a professional :be- cause he had written an article about a tennis game in which he had played. Miss J Glenna Collett is a professional real estate agent, her earnings nmeh enhanced by her golf celebrity, but i$ recognized as an amateur champion. 'Mr. Tunis says that in his opinion the two Amer. leans who are the best examples of sportsmen witk`tlle amateur spirit are both open professionals. They are Vincent "Richards and Walter Hagen. It is true that they both play for money but it is even more true that they play tennis and golf because of their consuming passion for the games themselves. The pro- fit to them is an incidental. Would either of them accept the money that he earns at his favorite sport on con- dition that for a year he did not touch club or racquet? Nobody who knows either of them believe that he would. As examples of the amateurs who display the professional spirit, Mr. Tunis mentions the hundreds of thousands, if not indeed millions, of people who play golf or bridge but always for a little money. The games themselves are not sufficiently inter- esting to them. They must have a small bet to stimulate • their atten- tion. They cannot play a game of golf without betting at least a ball on the outcome. They display more ingenuity in arranging things to bet on than in perfecting their strokes. If they loved golf or bridge would they find a need for this artificial stimulus? In Mr. Tunis's opinion they are true professionals for what they do is not for the love of the game but for the love of money. To them may be added the hundreds of thousands of people who go to the horse races. Most of them, we sus pect, if they were not permitted to bet would rather shoot craps than see the King's Plate run. This certainly is not the amateur spirit and we agree with Mr. Tunis that the ama- teur spirit is a beautiful and valuable thing. At the same time we fail ut- terly to see how it is being developed by the rules of sport which under- take to define the differences between amateurs and professionals.

Prices on most classes of killers were 15 to 25 cents per cvt.tt., higher than last week's close, but better thanl usual quality in the bulk of the butcher cattle was responsible for a share of the improvement.
