Miss Gertrude Lyons of Toronto was an Easter visitor at her home hero. a deficit of SIWOO; nor the Barrit Commission which was behind over $12,000, but one wonders. why there t>hould be such an increase in the cost of operating maintenance and admini- strative expenses as the Commission has t-xperienced during the past year. The accounts of the Ontario Hydro Electric Commission are very com I money for relief the day before the 1 luster adjournment if the Govern- ment would consent to bring it in as supplementary estimates or in any Parliamentary form. The thing, he contended, that the Government was asking for was that the authority of Parliament be bestowed upon the Cabinet while Parliament was in sess- ion and to that he would never agree. The resolution now before the House simply announces the intention ol the Government to introduce a bill. Mr. King said that he would agree to the bill they wished to introduce if they would make these two changes in it: first, name the sum they wish- ed, "whether it was one million, ten million or a hundred million" and secondly, omit the clause "for peace order and. good government." It was under the peace, order and good government clause that the abuse ol power by the Cabinet was exercised In the afternoon the Minister ol Agriculture, the Hon. Mr. Weir had spoken and most offensively in re- lation to the Rt. Hon. W. L. Macken- zie King. Last year too he had made a biting attack on him. But on this occasion he said Mr. King was trying to get back at Saskatchewan for send- ing nine Conservative members to the House. He said the leader of plicated and not understood by any- iA - have onc to Toronto to attend Mr. Neil McCannell, Mr. Herbert j the Opposition was filled with revenge Corbett and Miss E. E.

Mr. Herb Corbett and his mother, would be given some statistics that would assure him everything was fine and continuing so. The Ontario Commission is a irreat public utility and |s an asset to this province, but it can still be open to censure from its power con- sumers who consider that the costs of operation are excessive. We don't desire to be continually taking a poke at hydro, like many public men are doing these days, but we do believe that the salaries paid the high offici- als are excessive and could be greatly bcwildering !

Mackenzie King mndo "What revenge would I have a gainst Saskatchewan?" asked Mr King. "Was not Saskatchewan tht province which gave such splendid support to the Liberal party as to ensure its continuance in office from 1925 to 1930? Am I unmindful of the fact that I stand tonight in this House honored with the representa- tion of a constituency in the province of Saskatchewan and that Prince Albert has on three or four occas ions returned me to this Parliament I speak as a representative of the province of Saskatchewan. "I challenge the Minister of Agri culture to point, in the entire course of my public career, to one single act of mine which has been inspired by the spirit of revenge. Only those who are themselves capable of that kind of thing would think of imput- ing that sort of action to others. A? for the remarks of the Minister, I am prepared to treat them as beneath contempt." The Hon. James Malcolm, membei for North Bruce, Ontario, was giver n hearty welcome when he entcreo !he Chamber on Tuesday. Mr. Mal- colm has been very ill and his friends much concerned over hjs condition. It made happy all members of the House to sec him once more looking o well. In each Parliament thcr<. .re a few members who are held in affectionate regard by the whole House and Mr. Malcolm is one of fln'se. and if jrood wishes would make him altogether well, he would indeed have a speedy recovery. On Wednesday, March 23rd, the I'nnic Minister, the Rt. Hon. R. B. Henott gave notice of closure which will forcibly bring to an end the cle. lint.' on Farm and Unemployment Relief on Tuesday, March 20th. The Prime Minister suggested that Mr. King might agree to permit the vote on the closure to be put the same' ada. It was rather noteworthy that that when speaking in reply to the charge that his cabinet were meek and servile, he ably defended them against such a charge and compared them in ability to any group in the Opposition to the great advantage of his Ministers. He did not, howevei, compare his Ministers to himself. I am inclined to think that the tac- tics of the Opposition have not been good. Strong opposition to the Gov- ernment resolution could have been shown by a few strong speeches and a recorded vote and then of the first, second and third reading of the bill, vile Opposition's dislike could have been further shown in a recorded vote Such was the method used in opposi- tion to the revision of the Bank Act, nine years ago by a small group ol members of the House. afternoon (Wednesday, 23rd.)

Euler speaks not often, but well exceptionally well. He does not attempt oratory, never gets excited and never takes an ex- treme position. Because of his well known moderation the speech deliver- ed by him just before the Easter re cess is significant. While admitting he believed in tariffs, he stated thar he did not believe that a country could live to itself alone and pointed out that furniture manufacturing es tablishments in his native city o: Kitchener were having difficult times "More furniture mechanics are walk ing the streets of Kitchener today than ever before, in fact some of the factories are closed down and that in spite of the fact that a tariff on furniture up to 4(K'r or even 45T Mr. Euler pointed out that the mar- ket which Kitchener had found In New Zealand for rubber had been en- tirely destroyed when this Govern- ment imposed a prohibitive duty a gainst New Zealand butter. In dealing with the present depress ion and the general unhappy condit- ion of affairs, Mr. Euler said: "We have developed and grown industri- ally in such a way that the system under which we are now working needs either to be scrapped or very substantially modified. Capital as we have it today will break down altogether unless it is modified in a way that meets the needs of existing conditions." "Remaining an individualist I am not particularly afraid of the word Socialism," said Mr. Euler. "For a good mnny years Canadians have ;n many ways been socialists nnd per- mps to some extent, communists. We .ivi- in communities; we have com- munity schools, we have community enterprises of various kinds. In some of our town 1 * and cities nnd especially throughout the province of Ontario, \ve find all our public utilities undei public ownership. As I hnve^ snul however, I am still an individualist, but go so far as to say I believe the great public services of the country, upon which the prosperity, conven- ience nnd happiness of nearly nil the people depend, should be under the control of the public." He went on to approve of a resolu- tion introduced earlier in the session whk-h had nsked for the setting up of a national council looking toward planned economy in our national life. Mr. Kuler believed that more nnd more labor saving machines would be introduced freeing finally nil men from unending toil nnd Riving them the opportunity to enjoy the pleasures nnd blessings of life: that capital, whether invested in financial or in- dust rial undertakings, sots aside n reserve out of profits against n time when business may not bo so profit- able; capitalism also provides fot the replacement ,.f machinery. "Then," ho *nid, "let us imagine the mnchiiu is a black slave. If the muster Is wise he will set aside nn amount foi depreciation, so tlmt nt an end of n ten year period the slave is paid for. Then the rather striking interrogn- tion presents itself: If that can t>e dune for n black slave, why should it not be done for a white working nan?" The suggestion was advanced that from the profits of industry in pros- perous times a reserve should he set aside to take care of unemployment. Anticipating the criticism that busi- ness could not stand such n burden if it is to compete with other coun- tries, Mr. Euler pointed out that it would be no harder for business to lay aside an amount year by year in Rood times than to make heavy con- tributions in taxes in times like these, "uch taxes to be used for the care of the unemployed.
