He belongs to that group which doés not believe so much in class conâ€" Mr. Crerar has a pleasing personality, beâ€" ing genial and companionable, and made many friends while at Ottawa among the members of all partics. He will be generally missed by his former associates at Ottawa. s ADVERTISING RATES On application. Advertising copy must reach the office mot later than Mouday noon to insure inserlion. sciousness as in the need of supporting measâ€" ures which will benefit agriculture and other industries alike thus making for the all round development of Canada. Definite announcement has at last been made by the Dominion Minister of Agriculture of the removal of the embargo on Canadian cattle imposed by Great Britain. The agree ment making provision for its removal has been accepted by the new British Government and also on behalf of Canada and needs but the ratification of the Parliaments of Great Britain and Canada, which there is every asâ€" surance it will receive, to make it effective. The battle for the removal of the embargo has been a long drawn out one, many attempts having been made during the last twentyâ€"five years to secure its removal or modification. Not, however, until there was direct contact with the British people themselves by public men from Canada with the assistance of some of the leading public men in England was sufâ€" ficient public opinion aroused to induce the British Government to take action. In his letter he states that had not the considerations above referred to arisen his reâ€" tention of the position of leader would have been dependent on a clear understanding of the Progressives‘ program, especially on the vital question as to whether the Progressive movement in our policies shall descend into a purely class movement to which he is opposed. He believes that the party should include all those who subscribe to its principles, whether farmers or not. In these expressions of opinion he is, of course, at a variance with H. W. Wood, leader of the Farmers‘ movement in Alberta and J. J Morrison, the U.F.O. seâ€" cretary in Ontario. He further stated that he had not considered any fusion with any party in the house." The big grain organization of which Mr. Crerar is the head will now have the benefit of his whole time. The company during the past year. has not been able to show as good a record as in previous years owing to conditions which have affected trade generally and it is therefore desirable that he again assume active direction of the affairs of the companyâ€" . Whe removal of the embargo opens a market to Canadian cattle at a time when it is much needed and cannot fail to benefit the agricultural industry in this country. The agreement will be all the more welcome since the neighboring Republic has, during the past few years particularly, been imposing added restrictions on products from this country As was predicted in despatches appearing frequer;tly of late Hon. T. A. Crerar has resignâ€" ed as leader of the National Progresstve Party, announcing his decision to his followers at a caucus of the party held at Winnipeg last week. In his letter of resignation he discussed his own position, the political questions of the day and the future of the Progressive party and adds "I shall continue to fight as a soldier in the ranks." The reasons assigned for his resigning are that business obligations and the necessity of making necessary provision for his dependents impel him to relinquish the position. The need of the fire sufferers in Northern Ontario is such that the Waterloo Council at its last meeting decided to increase its grant to $500. The purpose is a most worthy one, the destitute condition of many of the settlers in the north making a strong appeal to the the generosity of the people generaily.

Some of President Harding‘s closest perâ€" sonal and political friends have been driven from public life, the Republican control of the next House endangered, the Republican margin in the Senate seriously reduced and New York State put in Democrat control overâ€" whelminglyâ€" Although it was anticipated that the De-‘ mocrats would make gains in the elections held | on November 7th, no such turnover as resulted | was anticipated even by the most optimistic\ supporters of that party while the estimates | of the Republicans fell woefully short of whatf they had expected. In striking contrast to the‘ election two years ago when President Harding | went into power with a big majority the Reâ€"| publican house margin has sunk to a majority“ of only a few votes while the Republican maâ€" jority in the Senate is reduced to about 20. | The sweep towards the Democratic party was nationâ€"wide the electorate apparently disâ€" approving of the enactments of the Gove.nâ€" ment in large measure if we are to judge by the returns. The high tariff legislation eviâ€" dently was not viewed with general favor as was also the case with the legislation generally put through by the party in control. According to recent despatches Canada is to have a Minister at Washington to repr&[ sent this country directly in its dealings with | the United States. This implies recognition of Canada as a nation and the right to negoâ€" tiate her own treaties with the Republic to the South. As Canada is necessarily qowersanti with her own affairs in a way not possible by a representative other than a Canadian, howâ€"| ever fair and reasonable he may be disposed | to be, the new departure has much to recom } mend it. It is fitting that Armistic Day which marked the end of the war and brought a deep sense of thankfulness and relief that the mighty struggle had ended, should be recogâ€" nized and a tribute paid to those who laid down their lives in behaif of others, although the day inevitably brings with it feelings of sadness in the homes which have been bereft of loved ones. Former President Wilson will no doubt view the result with a certain measure of sat isfaction since it constitutes a vindication of his attitude towards legisiation he has favored, to a reasonable degree. The Waterloo Council at its November meeting: took a commendable step when it deâ€" cided to have a survey of the town made so that there would be fixed building lines on all streets. The need of having such a survey made by the Town Planning Commission was emphasized by complaints received that buildâ€" ings were being erected without any idea of conforming with established building lines to the detriment of other properties. Deputy Reeve Foster in introducing the motion to have a survey made properly pointed out that if building lines were fixed throughout the town complaints such as those registered at the council meeting would not come before that body as those erecting homes or buildings would be required to conform to definite fixed lines The council unanimously endorsed the resolution.
