Monday, Sept. 11 exit, both branches of it - ,. and the Senate-yester- atlrrgq of the appropriation of Q,(h};0{}p for Canada's war effort. ,Sorise discussed it sufficiently, ett badeUy, The Senate concurred in 44 meaa)ure in ten minutes. Featuring the House debate was the turning down of an amendment to ban •exteamaal participation in the war by Oanadian troops. The vote was de - 151 to 16. The line-up for the amendment, moved by Grant McNeil, (C:C.F.) found its support in six C. C. F. members lined ten Liberal mem- bers from the Province of Quebec. Had such alt amendment carried, Canada's war efforts would definitely have been confined to Canada, as no troops at any time would go over- • seas. The country would share in the benefits of making supplies of all kinds without sharing in any physi- cal sacrifice that war would entail. Today, as yesterday, it was a great satisfaction to all to see the fere co- operation feom the Conservative par- ty, as well as from the other groups. While there was some criticism, it *as on the whole constructive.

The, debate was kept on a high lev- el,- even by those who ie, supporting the Izsne'wdment of S41r. McNeil, insist- ed tixat no troops should be sent out of Canada. Good progress was made with the legislation and it is expected that only a fele "days more and the spe- cialsession wit/ have given the Gov- ernment tpower to carry on until an- other session is called. • • * • 'Hose Hi ar Stevens, whe in this sesasion acted as financial critic for the official opposition, took the view that the budget was a provisional measure, therefore he did not intend to criticize it, although he did feel that he should make some sugges- tions and palated out that by using our gold production we could help the present economic situation. He warned against the nationalization of industry. On the whole, he did not think the taxation extravagant- Mr- Caldwell (C.C.F.) said it night have been a worse budget; everthe- less he objected to the tax on tee, coffee and tow grade tobacco as hit- ting the people least able to pay. Speaking for the Social Credit Group, Mr. Jaques thought the money could be raised simply be:inning' it. In the dispassion on the budget in committee, Rene Pelletier (S. C.) (moved an amendment to appoint a• house committee to study the pro- posals. There was a dlvdelon on the amendment, it being defeated by 190 to 8., There are 16 Social Credit members, but there were only eight in the House when the vote was call- ed. Dr. Manion again stated bis party's intention to co-operate, but wanted the assurance •that the Liberals would not have patronage iimeing rampant at this time. Mr. King said .that was the last thing he wanted to see dur- ing this crucial time. In answer to Dr. Manions question reregardieg an election, the Prime Minister stated that .there would be mo election this year, nor would he carry on after this parliamentary terms has expired. Tuesday, Sept. 13 Only the stress of war emergency could make possible yesterday's pro- ceed•ings..i-n Parliament. For the 'first time in history a national budget was brought down, explained in detail, de hated aned passed in all its stages, not only in the House of Coanmone, but also in the Senate. Moreover, other measures, notably the one cre- ating a department of munitions and supply was put through Its anain feature is the creation of a war sup- ply board, reporting•, to the Minister of Finance. This body will do all the buying of war supplies for Canada or for any other Government that wishes it to aot on its behalf, whale it will seek to nvobolize and co-ordin- ate industrial production for war re- quirements. This session will be nearly as brief as. the four day sittings in 1914. The expidition was made possible by the co-operation of all parties, though not without some taking time to voice dissent from cerbarin enactments. Prorogation will occur tomorrow at noon if the Senate has passed anti agreed on the bills by that time. What tele war will cost this coun- try no one oan even guess. Aly of our citizens find a painful illustra- tion in the war ,budget presented by the Minister of National Revenue to- day. It is a drastic affair; it. plays no favorites; it shits the taxpayer, large and small in various places- inthe pocketbook and pantry, the to- bacco jar and the beer jug, in the whiskey decanter and the wane cel- lar. The budget submitted yesterday is different to that et 1914, as it makes an: attempt to pay as you go. It is a war budget, evolved with, some ingenuity on the principle as outlin- ed, namely, pay as you go, so far as it is possible. Three methods were envisioned by the Minister of National Revenue as possible in the raising of taxes -bor- rowing, taxation and inflation- The last mentioned is rejected, while as stated the main resort is taYation- HIL.LSG'REEN (Intended for last week) -' The anniversary of Hillsgr-ee.
