Telephone 18 The Advance Debates Centre OH Money At Ottawa Parliament Hill looked as though we were in a state of siege one day this week. Every entrance to the ground was guarded by policemen fully armed. They seemed to be wear- ing their Sunday coats, too, since a little more braid than usual was in evidence. I thought there had been some accident and asked one of them but no, they were just expecting a demonstration of the Unemployed. A delegation of them were determined to see the Prime Minister. About t thousand unemployed gathered Confederation Paik in the centre o' the city, and attempted a meeting but as soon as one of their numbe held aloft by a number of his com Dundalk Man Sentenced Police Magistrate Spereman held an interesting session of the police court on Friday afternoon at Dun dalk, in which several important cases were disposed of and one case left over until the next sitting.

Albout two-thirty the Prime Minister received representa- tives of the Unemployed in the Rail- way Committee Room. Their case was represented by an able young man, who was, though, quite uncom- prising and bitter. The Prime Min ister, in reply, did not show much understanding or so it seemed to the listeners. Grand Juries are to be eliminated, on the plea of economy. This re- quired an amendment to the (Yimmu Code. At the same time anothei amendment was offered making it ; crime to obtain goods on the strength of bad cheques. Mr. Guthrie, "It is only when a person obtains goods by reason of n bnd cheque. If a man purchases goods and pays part cash Commission more appropriate than the Banking Committee. He made a very impressive speech, and finished with these words "Speaking for my- self I say that the policy of the Lib- HARD TO SECURE ICE eral party at this time in Canada I missed. Sun-Times, should be to look to the left, to look to the interests of the consuming masses of our people, and not to be afraid to change any laws which are built up on class lines.

The offence- is when a cheque is issued and as a result of the cheque goods are ob- tained, and the cheque is no good. The presumption then is that the transac- tion wns fraudulent." This Session has heard more debat- ing over money than any other: what is money? Should it be based on gold? Ilave we enough of it in cir- culation? Should it be issued by the banks or by a Department of the Government? Should it or shoulc. it not bear a relation to the poods :o be moved? All these questions are being asked and answered. Mr. G. G. Coot*-, the Member for MacLeod, Alberta, asked that tlie banking com- mittee should be empowered to inquire into, and report on, the advisability of amending the Dominion Notes Act, so as to eliminate the provision for redemption of Dominion notes in gold and to provide for the Issuing ol Dominion notes without relation tc gold reserve. Mr. Coote claims then is not enough money in circulation, and that the Dominion Treasury should issue more money, put it in circulation without interest, to effect the too great deflation which has tak en place. Too little currency in cir- culation has caused the fall of com- modity pricer,, and if prices are to be raised then the amount of money in circulation must be increased. H? pointed out. also, that during the World War we departed from the Gold Standard and increased our cur- rency to take care of increased busi- ness. If we had not done so, we would have lost the War, lie said, ami he wanted to know if we could not take similar action now to enable us to win the war against poverty. If we "ollowcd the advice given to Great Britain in the Maemillan Report we should issue Dominion Notes to the amount of $500,000,000 instead of tht $H-I,000,000 at the present. Such an addition to currency in circulation would, Mr. Cootc believed, raise prices up to something like the level they were a couple of years ago and en able Canadians to pay the debts which they then contracted. "Anyone who! today refuses to use such measures ! to put more credit in circulation and', increased prices is as foolish as the, man who refuses to put air in a flal tire ifnr fear he may blow up the tire. I remember hearing of a Scotchman wh.-i, the first time he saw the sign 'Free Air" did use so much air that he blew out the tires. It is possiWo to blow up a monetary system with in- flation ns was done in Germany, but that is not what is proposed in the United States today, nor is it what 1 nm rti-onosinjr in Canada," said tho Member for MacLeod.
