Finance Committee, $2.05; Public Ways Department, day lab- curers, $3,500; Aqueduct Department, day labourers, $1,000; Police and Fire Department for purchase of house numbers and street signs, $47; Pol- lice and Fire Department, Board for Chief of Police, etc.$400;

for this district generally he estimated that only one per cent of the trees had been killed.Despite Mr Petch's optimism, however, fruit growers in other districts are very definite in their reports that the unusual frosts of last winter have caused tremendous damage.Professor T.G.Bunting.Macdonald College, Ste.Anne de Bellevue, said that fruit-growing areas all over Canada had been seriously affected.(Oontinued on page 6.) Unequal Graphic Portrait Given in Stevens Price Spread Hearings on Aspects of Our Economic Life The Central Bank Weekly Review Ottawa Affairs Written For Gleaner By Wilfred Eggleston A graphic

with machine guns.\u201d Major Kennedy had been sitting there at the committee listening to these harrowing tales of farmer destitution and subjugation, until he couldn't stand it any longer, and came out with this bitter analogy.What's the remedy?the members of the commitee, other parliamentarians., economists and reformers are asking.as each new lurid disclosure of disparity is uncovered.One suggestion is to give the farmer machine guns.too.Then it ought to be a real scrap.This new Natural Products Marketing Act, say some of the members, points a way out.Give the tobacco growers the power

they could say: \u201cNo.this stuff costs us 25 cents 2 pound minimum to produce.and we won't move a pound for less.\u201d Such is the picture these people have of the new scheme of things when

Chateaugay Man\u2019s Fate Will Be Decided by Confreres on June Nineteenth A eam Governor H.H.Lehman of New York State has summoned the State Senate to meet in special session at Albany on June 19th to judge the cfficial conduct of Senator Warren T.Thayer, of Chateaugay, N.Y., Republican whip charged with improp- e: relations with the Associated Gas and Electric Company.Testimony for and against the Chateaugay legislator ended late Tuesday with the questioning of Federal Judge John R.Knight.The committee immediately went into executive session and decided to ask Governor Lehman to call the Upper House in special session to determine whether Thayer was guilty of official misconduct in killing \u201cdetrimental\u201d bills while he was chairman of the Public Service Committee.The 1076-page record of the testimony, brought out during the eight days of public hearings.will be sent t& all members of the Senate immediately so they may study it and be ready to act when they come to Albany.Judge Knight, a former Republican Senate majority leader.was a \u201csurprise\u201d witness called by Paul J.McCauley.counsel to the judiciary committee which investigated Thay- er\u2019s financial transactions with the power company.As majority leader.Knight named Thayer chairman of the Public Service Committee, Jan.12, 1925.Immediately thereafter Thayer negotiated with the Associated for sale of the controlling stock in the Chasm Power Company.In addition to paying Thayer $175 a share for 236': shares of stock.the Associated agreed to pay him $3.600 a year for six years.The payments were begun in 1926 after Thayer's duties as active manager of the Chasm Company ended.Knight.questioning closely on his knowledge of Thayer's interest in public utilities.denied knowing \u201canything about hs relations with them one way or the other.\u201d He said, however, that the allegations uncovered by McCauley would have put him \u201con inquiry with reference to his (Thayer's) relations with any public utility.\u201d \u201cIf you include in your inquiry.\u201d Knight told McCauley.\u201cthe assumption that Senator Thayer was being employed by them during this time.I should say that I don\u2019t think he would have been appointed chairman of the Public Service Cominis- sion.At the end of the hearing, Committee Chairman William T.Byrne annonced that former Senator Clayton R.Lusk.Thayer's counsel, would be the first to address the Senate when it convened.McCauley will speak second.Lusk had sought to make the final address.The committee alloted each counsel three hours for his summation and an additional half hour each for rebuttal.The Senate can follow one of two courses: Vote to remove Senator Thayer.vote to exonerate him.Should Thayer resign, and that possibility is mentioned there would be no need for the Senate session.The Republican publicity sheet declares members of the judiciary committee have advised Thayer to resign.Minstrel Show Augurs Success Final Practice Held For Empire Day Presentation In O\u2019Connor Hall The Huntingdon Minstrel Show that is to be presented in the O'Con- nor Hall on Empire Day, May 24th at 8.10 o'clock sharp, gives promise of being the best musical entertainment seen in Huntingdon for years.Miss Elsie Sellar who is the pianist for the Minstrel Show, under the direction of Mr.Fred Montle, manager of the Bank of Commerce.pronounces it the finest entertainment programme she has worked on for many a year.This says a whole lot for Miss Sellar has been instrumental in providing Huntingdon with many of its finest and best entertainments.The final practice was held Tuesday evening.Whilst Miss Sellar has thoroughly enjoyed the continuous practice work with the troupe for the past two months, they in turn have personally expressed their appreciation to her for the valuable assistance she has rendered them.Mr.Montle is an old time hand at | We May Well W.P.PERCIVAL, MA, PhD, \u201cRestraint and discipline, examples of virtue and of justice, these are what form the education of the world\u201d \u2014Burke.Discipline has long been closely associated with punishment.In fact, the two words are frequently regarded as interchangeable.The term disciplinarian is generally associated with a stern master: one who will punish with little provocation.A disciplinarian of this type may be a parent.a teacher, or any other person having position and power.Discipline has also been closely linked with silence.A well disciplined child has been conceived to be one who never speaks until he ts it spoken to.Likewise a well disciplined school has been believed to be one in which silence almost always reigned.Stillness is also frequently thought of in this connection.In fact a favourite old fashioned method of securing order was to make the pupils cease work, fold their arms behind their backs.sit straight up in their seats with heads backward and chests forward and remain perfectly still until all could hear the click of the pin when the master dramatically let it fall.If this sound could be heard plainly the trick had been successful and order was secured.An alternative method was to wail until the ticking of the clock could be heard.If the desired result could be obtained by either device the strain on the master's nerves was relieved and bedlam could be let loose again until the next occasion arose for a repetition of the operation.Sometimes severe means were used tc bring an unruly boy or class to order.Threats of bodily harm were frequent.When these were not sufficient the irate masters would show that they were as good as their word.Jones Minor would be summoned to the front and given a sound thrashing \u2018to serve as an example to the others\u201d.If the excited teacher could not restrain himself until the offender made his way from his bench.a heavy hand would drag him out by the scruff of the neck.So fre- guently was this idea of school linked to that of punishment that the seal granted to a granimar school with the letters patent of Edward VI represents a pedagogue in the act of flaying a child.The rod was the emblem of discipline and authority.Such ideas of discipline have relation to taboo and tribal custom.They are not the conceptions of present day thoughtful people.They are merely repressive.They are inclined to lead to the opposite of that which is intended.Satisfactory conduct can never be established upon these bases.It may be that very young children who do not understand should be coerced where their personal safety and that of others is concerned.But once they know the meaning of language they should be taught to make decisions to direct their conduct in a manner which will be in the interest of their future welfare.External repression as a means of disciplinary culture has persisted for far too long a time.Impositions by adults have been inflicted upon children until those whe possess spunk have rebelled.These have undertaken to go their own way and do as they wish when adults are not looking.Many have done deeds that have brought them into conflict with the law.The discipline born of self restraint was unknown to them.At the young age of eighteen and What Is Discipline ?Ask Director of Protestant Education paucity of the advantages of such offenders there is little wonder that legal authorities have altered their attitude towards these offenders and hat they trace life histories before pronouncing sentence.Not alone the adolescents who are dull but, more often, those who are full of vigour and energy have fallen into evil ways when the repressive influences were thrown off.It is the business of modern homes and schools to instruct young people In self discipline.They must be taught that by adequate adjustment to social living the individual derives the highest satisfactions and that those who do not conform to! the laws of social life will reap spire itual, social and physical harm.This cannot be learned by repressions, threats and punishments.Wielders of the rod are usually hated and despised.Advice from such lips falls upon sealed cars.It is difficult enough for people to listen to friendly counsel, but helpful suggestions from the loved and respected are frequently accepted and acted upon.Excessive supervision must be uvoided by those who would lead others to self discipline, Demanding stillness and long periods of silence Is attaching too much importance to trifles and giving a wrong emphasis to life.Parents and teachers who constantly oversee every action of : the young lose their function as.tuides to conduct.It is far prefer- : able for them to teach that every- | one has duties to perform, some | which are pleasant and some unpleasant.but that honour demands that none shall be shirked and all must be faithfully accomplished for the mutual welfare.A high type of discipline is to be found where everyone has learned to be intent upon some desirable activity.Earnest conversations may take place in such an atmosphere.A laugh may be heard on occasion, but it will be subdued if the class has caught the proper spirit.The lesson of respect for the rights of others Will have been acquired.Freedom will reign, but a freedom that ir conditioned by the general weal | Children in such a school ove about the classroom to help and receive help.Mischief is found by the idle, not the busy hands.The instructor that can breathe the breath of life into subject and make children desire to work at it has little difTiculty with discipline.The student of nature study or the master who can expound the wonders of science will have attentive listeners that will freely and openly ask questions on the subject matter instead of surreptitiously writing notes Lo one another on irrelevant subjects.The Artist that can stimulate n class to write poems or describe Saturday's adventures never has to think of external discipline.Not the imposed discipline of an hour or a day is the important need but the production of an internal discipline that will be a rock of ages upon which a person can rely when storm and trials break over his head.Day after day.week in and week out, the tact, poise, patience and moral force of parent and teacher must he exerted in the pro- auction of well balanced characters.Few children will form any good habit after one experience; nor after seven experiences.They must be helped until the seventy times seven nineteen many of them have entered the criminal class.Recognizing the | Fourteen Years Dentist | v1

accidentally killed at St.Louis on Monday afternoon.Information was secured Tuesday night that the man had died a natural death.Robert Archambault, 36, who resides about two miles west of St.Louis de Gonzague village went out to the field about two o'clock Monday afternoon to do some harrowing.At supper time he did not come home and when they went to call him noticed the horses wandering about the field.Members of the family went to the scene and found the young man dead, his body lying across the harrows.Medical aid was summoned and the Coroner notified.There were wounds where he fell on the harrows but Dr.O.E.Caza said that in his judgment these were not suffi- clent to cause his death.He suffered from a heart condition and it is surmised that he dropped dead as he stooped to hitch the horses to the harrows.Archambault is unmarried and Ninety Boys In St.Joseph's Choir !

inferring that it means naught to them, and they should continue with their daily labours.It is quite true that Empire Day was first regarded as the birthday of the late Queen Victoria who reigned over the British Empire from 1837 to 1901.She was indeed a remarkable Quecn and as a symbol of fidelity to her the whole of the British realm set aside this one day of the 365 to mark her birthday, and do honor to her.Her son, King Edward the VII, known as \"The Peaceful\u201d acknowledged the greatness of his revered mother and late Queen.King Edward knew well that the nation as a whole appreciated the keenness and greatness of the late Queen therefore it was her birthday that was continued to be celebrated to mark a day of respect and loyalty to the British Crown under whose regime we have so much to be thankful for, and be proud of the fact that we form a portion of the Empire.The 24th of May has been enscribed as one of the legal holidays of the whole Empire.it is known today as \"Empire Day\u2019 and not \"Victoria Day.\u201d If the Empire sees fit that we who live here have a right to live in peace within the realm.it 18 but fil we should deem it right to acknowledge this privilege by observing \u2018Empire Day\u201d holiday.It is quite true certain lines of business must continue to be directed.but at the same time it is not necessary for everyone to open up his place of business for the sake of a paltry dollar, or so to speak.to keep even with the competitors.It is worth far more to any business man to know that he is living and working in a British country than to think he might be living in another land where tyranny rules.\u201cEmpire Day\u201d in many respects might well be regarded as a day of thanksgiving.thanks to British Empire that our land is a land of peace and order.Here.man is privileged to worship as he wishes, if he is industrious and uses good sane judgment he will find nature and providence so kind to him that he is able to enjoy many of the luxuries of this age.Whilst we in the British Empire enjoy such liberties and privileges the same cannot be said of the populace in Germany.Russia.China.Japan, etc.So many countries are in a state of unrest that today we might well take a glimpse of what is going on in the world.and then express our thanks that we constitute a portion of the British Empire.A country is only what its people make it.and if we are negligent about honoring our Country the day will not be far off when we become a disorganized lot of folks.Let us now all honor our Empire by faithfully observing the 24th of May.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Bridge Dreams in The dreams of the dreamer some- Time Come True times come true.His dreams may prompt him, when in his conscious state of mind.to direct his efforts towards achieving that about which he dreamed.Cornwall, the popular industrial centre of Eastern Canada.has a number of dreamers and men with alert minds in their conscious hours.The citizens of Cornwall have long figured that the N.Y.C.bridge crossing the St.Lawrence from Nyando to Cornwall should be a vehicle bridge as well as a means of a railway crossing.As this bridge was the property of the New York Central railway.it was quite natural that they would not strain a point to aid vehicle traffic that was taking the bread and butter right out of the mouth of the railway systems.It was no wonder the railway held off from converting their bridge to such a traffic.yet when the railways appreciated the fact that sooner or later a vehicle bridge would be built near Cornwall.the N.Y.C.were big enough to admit their position and convert their bridge into one of dual purpose.The railway has certainly taken the proper attitude.for now this bridge will vield a financial return upon the investment, otherwise it was a big expense to the railway to maintain for the piffling bit of trade the railways receive today in comparison with years ago.It was the alert brains of the men of Cornwall who conceived the idea of erecting a separate vehicle bridge extending from below Cornwall to St.Regis.This would indeed have been a handier hridge for those of us living in Huntingdon.for such a bridge would have landed in Quebec province in place of in New York State.As it is, a vehicle crossing has been arranged over the New York Central bridge from Nyando, N.Y, to Cornwall], Ont.A dream of the early autoists has at last come true for this bridge was opened to traffic last week.Its official opening is to take place on June 30th the first day of Cornwall's centennial celebration, when the Governor-General of Canada will officiate.To those who drive autos or trucks to Montreal, they have long dreamed and visioned the day when a short cut from Caughnawaga to Montreal would be made possible through spanning the river with a vehicle bridge.The C.P.R.unlike the N.Y.C., were unable to provide a vehicle transportation roadway on the Lachine bridge; but within this district resides the Minister of Lands and Forests, the Hon.Honoré Mercier.Mr.Mercier had visions of a separate bridge for vehicles so that the farmers of his constituency might get to the metropolis of Canada to market the produce of their truck gardens.Today this Caugh- nawaga-Ville La8alle bridge is erected and about to be put into actual use.The official opening will take place on July 1st or 2nd.Two bridge dreams have come true in 1934.The big bridge dream in Valleyfield is that in not too many years a crossing of the St.Lawrence will be made possible upon the chainwork of dams, for the water diversion works of the Beauharnois Power Corporation.These dams connect one island with another, similar to the Nyando-Comwall bridges.These islands when all connected by dams will mean that a comparatively narrow stretch of water would have to be spanned with a steel structure and so provide another vehicle bridge across the St.Lawrence River.The Beauharnois Power Corporation project calls for the building of these dams each year, and that by 1987 all will be built but the final link.If by that date the Power Company requires the entire flow of the St.Lawrence river it is highly probable the company would acquire the right to dam this final stretch of water.4 Today, we may say this is but a dream, but how many people thought the same of Nyando-Cornwall and the Caughnawaga-Ville LaSalle bridges only a few years ago.When Money Biting off more than one can chew Is No Object has been a popular pastime not only with individuals but with governments as well.How many men built luxurious not to say palatial homes in the hey-day of prosperity with little or no thought given to the onerous obligations this would entail, especially in the event that business conditions should suddenly shift into reverse.Borrowing may be legitimate but it also implies ensuing responsibilities, such as interest payments and capital refunds\u2014this is the point which seems to have escaped the attention of many people\u2014the day of reckoning which inevitably follows, as the night follows the day.In Ontario.a group headed by the late Sir Adam Beck decided the province should be \u201cblessed\"\u2014no doubt with the implication that the quantity of taxes is a matter of secondary importance\u2014that the taxpayer has been placed on this earth to pay for some demagogues pet scheme\u2014it was consequently decided that the people should be \u201cblessed with public ownership.\u201d Unlike other organizations which consider it good business ethics to learn to walk before they can run; the Hydro magnates in their sapient deliberations decided that walking was too slow and tedious à process so they proceeded forthwith to spend mon- ev in a lavish and reckless manner.Customers were served at less than cost for many years, a procedure which manifestly endeared the Hydro to the hearts of the people\u2014cheap electricity of course.but what became of the losses incurred! They were obviously being charged up to the people with the resuit that today we find (according to the most recent Year Book) that the bonded debt of Ontario amounts to $500.000,000 whilst that of Quebec is only $92,000,000.Like a great many others, the Hydro executives probably thought that prosperity was a permanent feature so they built right and left.bought power sites, entered into contracts for the purchase of power, they even gave away free of charge, quantities of water heaters, in a frantic effort to increase consumption of current.But the fact remains that all these expenditures have increased the per capita debt in Ontario to a much larger extent than that of Quebec.Consequently froin the point of view of dollars and cents which of the two is better off! The problem which interests us all.is not particularly \u201chow much am I paying for electricity\u201d but rather \u201chow much is it costing me to live.\u201d Granting that electric service is cheaper in a certain place than it is in another, but if on the other hand taxes in the one locality are so much higher that they more than offset thé lower rate\u2014then where is the advantage of \u2018cheaper\u2019 electricity?If it costs a business firm more money than the order is worth, then that order was hardly worth seeking\u2014this sort of business does not pay anyone.Another fact which should not be lost sight of, is that the Hydro contributes nothing towards the upkeep of the country\u2014it pays no taxes.The privately owned companies on the other hand pay their full share of the costs of administering the affairs of the nation.What would Hydro rates become if this government undertaking were burdened with taxes! And what would the proponents of public ownership in Quebec have to say about rates if the private companies were relieved of taxes?The savings effected in this way would have its repercussions in further rate decreases equivalent to the sums we actually disburse in taxes.As a well known statesman once said \u201cthe people of Ontario have decided in favor of public owner- ship\u2014that is their affair\u2014but we in Quebec believe and know that private ownership.properly regulated is more equitable and functions in the interests of the majority.\u201d Let us bear in mind one very important point which is the following: If public ownership became a \u2018fait accompli.the government would be forced to increase taxes in order to compensate for the losses which the public treasury would sustain.through the disappearance of the private companies.Murder On Most of our highways are the scene Our Highways each vear of pitiful and tragic accidents.Here and there one finds two or more cars overturned, smashed beyond recognition.a blood smeared bit of roadway, bruised or tearful people and the usual crowd of gaping spectators.Presently is heard the sound of a gong and in the distance the awesome ambulance, doctors and nurses with grave meins going about their duties of patching up the unfortunate victims.Someone is badly hurt, someone will never return home, who a few minutes previously, had been in good health.At the inquest the result is often summed up in a curt statement: \u201cExcessive speed or tried to pass the other car on a curve or hill\u2014verdict of accidental death is hereby rendered.\u201d Surely the thought of the great sorrow which such accidents cause, the instinct of self preservation ought to be sufficient to make the motorist exercise at all times, the greatest care and prudence.At this season of the year thousands of people whose cars had probably been laid up during the winer months, are driving once more, consequently this implies that the chances of accidents are greatly multiplied.Such being the case, it is imperative that motorists be more careful.It is useless to content oneself with saying: \u201cI will do this and that\u201d for mere resolutions are not sufficient unless they are put into practice.It is of the utmost importance that the car be inspected and gone over by a reputable mechanic, Brakes and steering gears should always be in the best of condition and no less important are the tires upon which depend the safety of many lives.Worn out tires will cause skidding and furthermore they are apt to blow out.without the least bit of warning thus rendering the car unmanageable.In the second place, one should drive at a moderate rate of speed, and never attempt to pass other cars when one's vision is obstructed.For example passing on a hill or curve is a highly dangerous practice and should be religiously avoided.Cutting in on a line of a traffic is another sure way of inviting trouble.Attempting to beat the train at a crossing has never proved a healthy pastime nor is it conducive to longevity.There are stop signs at these railroad crossings and one is supposed to observe the rules of the road or take the consequences.Then there are those who fairly boil at the sight of a traffic officer\u2014the one man whose presence on the road has probably saved more lives than one realizes, Let us respect this guardian of the law\u2014he has been given the task of running down the dangerous drivers\u2014a thankless and hazardous calling under any circumstances and one which should commend itself to all right thinking citizens.Let us do our bit in quelling riotous motorists.We can do that by being courteous, sensible and by observing not only the letter but the spirit of the law.Until schools close, motorists should be particularly cautious when approaching school zones\u2014Children are heedlesd, they do not know danger, let us therefore protect them by avoiding all possibility of accl- dents.Can we not all co-operate in promoting safe driving\u2014in making it a pleasure instead of a dread\u2014 in reducing the number of accidents?Ragen THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Waits Fifty Years The constancy of a woman, now over eighty years of age, who has waited for 50 years for the return of her lover.was revealed by a radio message from Stockholm asking for news of the whereabouts of a sea captain or of any of his relatives.Behind the wireless message is the story of the woman who waited.At 26 she was betrothed to a sea captain in 1880.Their friendship lasted until 1884, when the man left Sweden, leaving behind him the girl who waited for his return.The captain never came back, and now his old sweetheart, ill, and about to undergo an operation, wonders if he or his family might not be in want.She has, therefore, made a will in his favor.and directed that search should be made for him.The long years of silence and separation are forgotten.All she can think of is whether her betrothed is in want.\"We were so happy during those feur years.\u201d she says.\"I cannot bear te think that he is suffering poverty.There is a little legacy coming to me and I want him to have it when I am gone.\u201d Dog Falls 700 Feet and Lives After falling 700 feet over the side of the Spielkogel in the Austrian Alps, a Pomeranian waited 30 hours in the cold and snow until he was rescued.He was with a party of skiers.who reported his loss when they reached a shelter hut at night.Next morning the hut owner was lowered over the cliff.but the rope was loo short.After an all-day search for a longer rope the man was again let down.and rescued the dog.All the time they were being hauled up the animal gratefully licked the face and hands of his rescuer, The pet was unharmed.Tempts Suicide Forty-four suicides in 22 months is the grim record of the great bridge which spans the harbor of Sydney.Australia.Since it was opened.in 1932, this bridge, with its drop of 185 feet to the water, has exerted 2 terrible fascination upon prospective suicides.One of the most pathetic of recent cases was that of Jeremiah Michael Sullivan, an unemployed ex-serviceman, aged 67.who left behind a note saying: \u2018I am leaving unceremoniously, because I have no desire to greet my friends through a barred enclosure at a mental hospital.\u201d Locust Walls for Argentina Argentina has ordered hundreds of miles of very smooth galvanized iron sheeting to be used in building walls across the country to stop invading locusts.The sheeting will cost $2.500.000 and construction expense will be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.The Government plans to fight the locust when he is a crawler before his wings develop.It is then that he begins his devastating march.A polished wall of iron sheeting will prove too smooth to climb, and if the locusts crawl along the barrier they eventually will land in a trap.Men will be stationed there with rakes to get the unwelcome visitors into large pits, where they will be destroyed.Fight in Dark Thousands of naked men fought for emblems of good luck during the age-old nude\u201d festival at the Temple of Kwannon at

luck\u2014into the thick of the crowd.For an hour.in pitch darkness.the thousands of naked pilgrims struggled.Then triumphant shouts told the crowd two men had gained the coveted tokens.The festival was at an end.Women Duped Housewives in the suburbs of Seattle are victims of a new kind of confidence trick which has just been put into practice.Dressed as a tradesman's messenger a smiling Young

of his car, which overturned in a ditch.More shaken than hurt, Pittis crawled out of the wreckage congratulating himself on his narrow escape, when he caught the strains of music from the rad- lc set

Taxes?statistician has estimated that if you smoke an average of a package of cigarets a day you pay the government $22 a year in taxes.Now this computation is interesting in itself, but its real pertinency derives from the understanding it affords of the whole tax structure, No one is exempt from tax payments; yet too often some such thought as this is heard: \u201cWhy bother about taxes and the tax burden?I'm not affected.All I have to pay are poll taxes.\u201d As a matter of fact, property taxes, income taxes, inheritance taxes and other major levies constitute only part of the tax story.If you play cards, you must pay the government for the privilege of opening a new deck.And so on.But let's not say that.Let's continue to be specific.Last year the Treasury received revenue, to pick out a few items at random from club dues, theatre ad-< missions, matches, tires and inner tubes, toilet preparations, articles made of fur, jewelry\u2014watches, clocks, opera and field glasses, etc.\u2014 radio sets, phonograph records, etc.mechanical refrigerators, sporting goods, cameras and lenses, firearms, shells and cartridges, candy and chewing gum, telephone, telegraph, radio, and cable facilities, leased wires, etc., and checks, drafts, or orders for the payment of money.To this internal revenue list, which is by no means complete, is to be added the 1934 processing tax on farm products.Back in 1920, Sidney Smith wrote of the schoolboy who whipped his taxed top, of the youth who managed his taxed horse with a taxed bridle on a taxed road, and of the dying Englishman pouring medicine which had paid 7 per cent into a gpoon that had paid 15 per cent.His was a vivid pen, just the kind that is needed today to tell folk in general that nuisance taxes are well named and that exemptions are like hen\u2019s teeth\u2014scarce.And yet you'll continue to hear: \u2018The tax burden has nothing to do with me.\u201d \u2014Manchester Union - * * * Honest Guidance Shall

Reckless accusations hurled to make a minor point or bring the author to a limelight that his merits would never win him.The latest example is the charge made before a small literary club in London, England, that King Albert of Belgium was foully murdered because he hated war and refused to conspire with France against \u2018\u201cde- fcneeless\u201d Germany.A charge like that has many barbs of slander\u2014 slander on the Belgian people.slander on France.and insult to the intelligence of the people of Britain.Few will believe that the story is anything but the ravings of an ir- responsibe.Royalty has suffered much from the so-called freedom of speech.Before the dead King of the Belgians was the target for the wild talker, King George of England suffered from slander until patience was exhausted and the culprit was hailed to court to pay the penalty.Freedom of speech and freedom of the press threaten to become a byword.The supreme right rests with the safeguarding of the rights of the honest, decent man.No rights can override that.Freedom of speech «nd freedom of the press are only Additional Ormstown Imp.or Canadian bred class.$8, $6, $5, $4.$3, $2.In order to

regarded, perhaps, too much of an economic question.We should fare ill, however, if so large an element as the moral element is felt to be, were left out of consideration.The economist may look on our social order as an industrial mechanism, but he will have difficulty In persuading the vast majority of our citizens that there is not a right and wrong even Popular opinion is likely to agree with that of an expert who recently defined right prices as \u201cprices which will make goods move.\u201d The mere possession of a commodity does not always give the possessor the right to charge whatever he pleases.He may charge all the traf- fice will bear, but the public has of late taken a somewhat wholesome interest in seeing to it that the traffic isn't made to bear too much.It has been known to do its buying in Ormstown Exhibition The Largest and Best Live Stock Show places where the traffic is made to bear a little less, As the public becomes more and more exacting in its demands that prices shall be right, it becomes more and more the problem of the seller to convince the buyer of the reasonableness of his prices.As long as we can maintain flexible and competitive markets free from artificial control, it will be increasingly difficult for the seller to push goods at uny but the right prices.\u2014Kingston Whig-Standard in the Province of Quebec Horse Trotting & Running

Relates Experiences On Friday afternoon, May 18th in St.Andrew's Hall, Chateauguay Basin, an address was given by Mrs.Frank E.Dickie on \u201cRussia.\u201d Having lived in Russia for several years very recently, the speaker was able to give her information first hand.illustrating her subject by many personal incidents.Starting with pre-war Russia Mrs.Dickie described conditions as they were then, telling mostly of the finery and mansions of the nobility: then the war, and the downfall of aristocracy.The speaker stated that it was a very common occurrence, at that time, for many families to live in the same house and probably one room alone would be alotted to each, one of the families very often being the past owners of the mansion and were now jeered at by the common people who shared the building.In speaking of conditions at present.Mrs.Dickie told of how very systematic everything is and things are ar- 1anged for the people to the very finest point.Food, for instance\u2014each person is allowed a certain amount per day and no more.There is positively no buying-in of supplies for several days, or a week, but a daily trip must be made to the market and stores.Clothing is made for service and warmth, not style and the average Russian woman cares very little for her appearance.The Russians are very earnest readers and public libraries are installed so that everyone, both old and young, may take advantage and learn as much as possible to his or her advantage.Before the address.Mrs.George Mac- Millan welcomed the guests and guest speaker on behalf of the Woman's Missionary Society under whose auspices the afternoon was held, then Miss Patience Reid gave a piano soo.The address was followed by a vocal solo by Mrs.J.R.Dickson and a piano solo by

tremendously disturbed about combines, monopolies, restraints of trade, price fixing, and the like.We made laws against them, with heavy penalties.Now, when we find these monopolies destroying the primary producer, we elect to create a lot of new mono- Folies, 100 per cent pools of growers end primary producers, which, in crder to work at all, will have to do all these wicked things themselves, price fixing, withholding from the market, restraining trade, and so forth.The other solution, chiefly being offered by the Liberals, is not to give the farmers machine guns but to take these lethal weapons from the distributors and the manufacturers.Break up the combines.Stop the restraints of trade.Give the farmer the benefit of real competitive trade both for his buying and selling.If the combines have been built up through the aid of tariff walls, tear the walls down again.What modification of either of these methods may be introduced by the present government is not clear.Bon.H.H.Stevens, in an interview last week, said that the fact that the proposed legislation announced by Premier Bennett in the House did not contain any measure based on the Stevens committee findings was not to be taken as a sign that none was coming.When the committee reports, it will unquestionably propose some action, and as the session will probably last another six or cight weeks, it is not unreasonable to suppose that something will be done.The premier has shown plenty of courage in dealing with situations, cnee fully brought to his attention.ond the Minister of Trade and Commerce goes around these days with © serious determined air which bodes no good for exploiters or chisellers.This session will go down into history, presumably.as one in which the public was given a series of lur- jd and startling glimpses into the way our present system works dur- pried off a number of industries.First it was the needle trades, then the meat packing, then the tobacco industry.A sickening series of disclosures have been made concern- ing starvation wages, defiance of minimum wage laws, primary producers selling their products for ruination prices, a few manufacturers waxing rich (others, it must not be forgotten.going to the wall), palatial salaries for a few big fellows and scandalously low ones for a lot of little fellows.In normal times these matters get a shrug of the shoulder from most citizens, who accept the fact that men are not made equal.But that fat profits should blossom on the squalor and misery of a widespread depression has aroused as much moral indignation as war profits did.Central Bank Proponents of a publicly-owned central hank made a last effort to give Canada an institution of that kind.but the banking committee turned down the idea by 17 to 13.with all Conservatives massed against it.Premier Bennett, in an address which did not go on the record.made some interesting observations about the difficulty of doing the fair thing by public ownership in a country where party politics was prevalent.He referred to the making of appointments, and as much as admitted that a prime minister had very little to say about the selection of responsible heads of public services, which, under the respective acts, were supposed to be selected by the government of the day.Instead, the party chose them.Suppose a vacancy occurred at the head of some important utility.A privately-owned concern would, presumably.choose the ablest and fittest man obtainable for the price the concern thought it would afford to pay.But a public appointment, Premier Bennett confessed, would have to pass other much more insistent tests.The man's party politics\u2019 religion.race, occupation and geographical location would.he suggested, figure much more
