The heavy debt of Canada of $5,â€" 000,000,000 including federal, provinâ€" cial and municipal, had reached its limit and steps must be made to stop spending except for absolute neceseiâ€" ties. A vote of appreciation to Hon. Mr. Euler for his splendid address was moved by Howard Maywood of Kinâ€" cardine and seconded by Mr. Moore of Medicine Hat, Alta. Continuing his address Hon. Mr. Euler said it was unfortunate that the people in Canada expect these recurring periods of depression. Surely it is possible to work out a system so that the workingman is amply provided for so as not suffer when*lean years come upon him. The business man sets aside an amount each year to have ready for replacement of plant Why cannot a system to provide for workingmen be made effective. Recovery from the present depression will be graâ€" dual. ‘Toâ€"day we have the fremenâ€" dous industrielization of industry and factories turning out every comâ€" modity by labor eaving machinery. Unless we have other ways to abâ€" sorb labor, shorter hours for the workingman must follow, which would give them more opportunity to enjoy life. _ Conditions are somewhat the same in the world toâ€"day. As prosperity smiled on the people following the depression 75 years ago so will they during the succeeding years to folâ€" low, declared Hon. Mr. Euler. The speaker quoted from an arâ€" ticle printed in Herper‘s Weekly 75 years ago at which time the world was in trouble with strife in Russia, China and India and the people at that time saw no remedy. ° I He referred to the old adage of the plague; the plague killed 5,000 and the fear of the plague 50,000; and was appropriate to these times. Those, who allowed the element of fear to grip them are only making their case worse. ’ Hon.

Insetâ€"a fine jump by three of the British underâ€" Before an enthusiastic audience of 1,200 Toronto Conservatives in the Royal York Hotel, as well as un numbered radio listeners throughout Ontario and parts of Quebec and Manitoba, the Prime Minister, in his ‘flnest oratorical form, coupled this ‘ourring declaration of hope with a searing attack on Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King and others who charge the Duff â€" ‘Transportation Commission with unwarranted secâ€" recy in its procedure. The banks, he declared, were the custodians of $1,500,000,000 of the savings of Canadians. Loaning with care and discretion, he felt that they had admirably discharged â€" their trust. He contrasted the clean sheet of the Canadian banking system with the 4,000 bank failures exâ€" perienced in the United States since the onset of the depression. ‘ Stressing the rigidity of the Government‘s supervision of insurâ€" ance companies and the firmness with which the Canadian banking system had survived the stress and strain of the depression, Mr. Benâ€" nett called upon his hearers to "speak a word" at every opportunâ€" ity in support of these institutions. He warned against the hoardini of money and urged citizens to hold fast to their insurance policies unâ€" less they were very hard pressed. __"With all parts of the Empire reâ€" presented at the council table in ‘Ottawa in July or thereabouts," he declared, "we should devise and evolve policies and agreements that will prevent us being subject to the like of a depression such as we have experienced in Canada." Envisioning the coming Imperial Economic Conference as the birth place of policies and agreements such as will prevent the recurrence of any such depression as‘ Canada bas lately experienced, Premier R.
