THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE WEDNESDAY, MAY 14, Oar Ottawa Letter Parliament is enjoying the omin- ous calm that precedes the storm. In the sittings of the past few days there has been but little to indicate that an election struggle generally expected to be bitter, Is just around the corner. Indeed since Rt. Hon. Mr. King announced his intention oi' closing up the house as speedily as possible and going to the people, the parlia- mentary situation has become com- plicated rather than otherwise. In addition to the business which was on the order ppper when Hon. Mr. Bennett launched his want- of- confidence amendment that pre- cipitated the government's election announcement, there is now a sub- amendment proposed on behalf of tho Progressives by W. R. Fansher of Last Mountain. It regrets the government's Acceptance of the principle of increased protection and goes on to urge that oven greater extension of the British preference should be arranged, particularly In the case of textiles, by abolishing the present requirement of a 50 per cent British content by which modities now qualify for the ferential rate. The sub-amendment is not one which is expected to pass. Not only will it be opposed by the Conser- vative oppositon. but the govern- ment forces also will resist it. Its purpose is pu-ely political. The Progressives are looking for political capital for their ridings, and .seeking to embarrass Western Liberals, by placing them on record against a proposal to reduce the tariff upon articles of wearing apparel. In the debate of the past cation and granting of soldier pen- sions. While nothing definite has been announced, it is generally ex- pected that the change for which the Veterans have been contending, namely of shifting the onus of dis- proof of a claim to the Board of Pension Commissioners, will be given effect.

If the subject of conversation is ar. indication of interest in tha sub- ject, then, without doubt, health comes first in the public interest, since the question most frequently asked is How Are You? What is your answer to-day, and what is it going to be in the future ? Are you making things pleasant fnr yourself anH f->r those with whom you live and work, because you are happy with the joy of good health, or are you one of those de- p-essing persons who demand sympathy because he looks so miserable? It >s surprising how much of ill- health is due to neglect of those essentials which can easily be se- cured by most people and which do not cost money. The proper kind of foo^ costs ni more than the wrong kind Fresh air and sunshine arc to be had for the asking. Sleep is pnt for jale; it means a proper bed- time. Exe"cise, rest and cleanli- ness can usually be secured by mak- ing a reasonable effort. These ^re tho factors unor. which personal health so largely depends. They are under our own control; no- l.ody con help us very much in so- South Waterloo and T. A. Murphy I curing them. If \ve want to enjoy health, we cannot neglect them.

Conservative speakers, notably A. M. Edwards of Too many late dances which take of Lanark, have been emphasizing that the so-called protectionist budget of the government has done up the time for sleep; too much nothing to aid in the revival of living in artificial light and not this basic industry, despite the fact enough sunlight; too many sweets that millions of dollars worth of between moals spoiling tho appetite equipment, capable of affording em- ( for proper food; indoo- parties in- ployment to thousands of workers, is standing idle for lack of a suf- ficient tariff. "Hon. Members should bear In mind", Mr. Edwards emphasized, "that this condition has not bee;-, brought about because we have an over-dupply of such factories or equipment in Canada. We have no: enough spinning machinery in Can- ada to take care of our normal re- quirements. The i'act is that while our present mills are standing idle the importations from mills abroad, where wages are mu:h lower than those in Canada, are continuing lo the extent of millijiu of dollars which it ij impossible for our milis to meet if they are to pay living annually creating a competition wages to their empl^yf's." Th-- re-action upon the fa-m r~- terprisc of the failure to er'-ournec the textile industry also constituted one of the points in the debate. Mr. Edward.-, pointed out that whereas at Confederation Canada had had 3,500,000 sheep, the total today was IP?-, than 3.000.0CO notwithstanding the far^ th-t t> t;>-l of 20.000,003 was required in order to meet the normal woollen requirements o* the I country's population. ,Me quoted statistics of \vool importations from Australia and New Zealand, 416.728 pound* and 2051.002 pounds re- spectively during the pa?t year, r; explaining th? inability oi' the farmers in his constituency to seii their wool even at a price of eight certs per pound. i will be answered personally by let- ter. The present opinion in Parliament is that the budget debate will close on Monday, and that the chamber will be able to get down to actual business upon the tariff re vihitions. Just how long they will require for their passage is a problem upon which few Commoners will hazard an opinion. It i-; generally expected however, that a fortnight, if not sufficient for their passage, will at any rate suffice to tire the patience of tho government and induce it to go to the country without the budget being enacted. While it is known that tho ministry is anxious to have the budget adopted before it ap- peals to the people, it is not believec? that the noint is regarded as ab- solutely vital.
