The Provincial Governments would be the schools in which the training of the Indians In self- government would be continued, A constitutional framework would be set up for the Provinces by a gevised India Act which would be broad enough to permit of adjustments to meet the varied requirements' of the different Provinces and permit of the un- Jhindered or uninterrupted growti to complete responsible govern: ment, The Governor of the Province wuld form his Ministry, But while it would not be necessary In' every Province that every Minister should be a member of the Legis- lature, members from the Legisla- ture would be eligible for. any of the portfolios in the Cabinet, and there would be joint Cabinet re- sponsibility. At present In che Provinces there is a division of responsibility, and restricted au- thority, Jower of Governors The Governor would have power to act independently of his' Minis- try only in case the responsibie Government falled to fumetion or did somethiug injurious to the State or unfair to the minorities. The Provinces would have wide autonomy, Including control of the officers of law and order --=& point of much dispute during the Inquiry. The Provincial Legislative Coun- clls would be increased to 200 and 260 members in the larger Prov- inces. Communal electoral districts to ensure fair reprasentation for the Mohammedans and the Sikhs would be continued, The Hindu caste system Is shown 'in provision for direct rep- resentation from the "depressed classes," Women representation In the Provincial Council would be aid- ed by Governgr's nominations from general constituencies, The franchise would be extend- ed, In the Provinces now enjoying hte franchise, 2.8 per cent. of the population is registered as voters. This would be increased to 10 per cent.,, which is as fas as the Com- missioners think it feasible to 'go until education is more wide spread, Norhtwest Frontier The Northwest Frontier Prov- ince and other special areas which play a vital part in the protection and peace of India would not, at the present time, have the same degree of self-government as the Governors' Provinces. From the Provincial Councils the federal Assembly to assist in hte government of all British In. dla would be built. The members elected to the Provincial Council would in turn elect the -Province's quota of members to the federal body, They might or might not be mem- bers of a Provincial Counéil, Pro- portional representation would be used, so that each group in the Provincial Council. would be rep- resented in the federal House. Native States would be encour- aged to also come into the federn- tion by sending representatives, but would not be forced so to do. The Governor-General of India would still remain the active head of the federal Government, He would select his own Ministers, instead of, as at present, these being selected under the author ity of the Secrejary of State for 'India, To Use Publicity Plans: to give the Indian 'Gov- ernment"s side to the people through vations forms of publicity are suggested, Instead of remain- ing silent, as has often been the practice in the past, The British Army must remain in India, The well-being of India and the well-being of the Empire require. its presence there for many years to come, The unity imposed upon Indiu hy the external force of British government is today reinforced by an increasing sense of Indian na- tionality, Only the existence of British rule has rendered such a development possible, Whatever its shosecomings and however dia- tasteful some of {ts manifesta. tions, it appears to be the one force in Indian s-olety today that may, perhaps, contain within it. solf the power to overcome the deep and dangerous cleavages which. threaten the land's | reace and good government of tho CAPITAL INVESTED 3 00 the contribution which the gas ine MILESDR SIRE RALGAS 7 INDUSTRIAL af Folate of Raw MATERIALS DOMESTIC USEOFGAS NATURAL GAS 000 M 4 00 0.008 D HOW THE GAS INDUSTRY HELPS ALL OTHERS industry.

"Tema Sidky Pasha, member of the "Ittehadist," or King's Party, undertaking "to solve Egypt's grave new Cabinet crisis, has completed construction of a new Ministry to replace that of the resigned Mustapha Nabas Pas- ha. The new Ministry has yet to face the overwhelming Waftdist majority in Parliament, Without Wartdist support, no Government could con- stitutionally live for a single day, and, according to party alignment, the Wafd ls strictly opposed to the Ittehadists, The next move in the political crisis seemp to be up to King Fuad, whose porfion Is generally realized to be uncomfortable, The King has already been subject, to veiled threats and much violent talk in Parliament, JUDGE WITHOUT JURY WILL HEAR DIVORCE ACTIONS Regulations Covering Pro- cedure Nearly Completed by Supreme Court cedure covering the hearing of di: vorce applications which are being drawn up by a committee of three Judges of the Supreme Court of On. tario of Ontario will probably be completed to-day, .it was learned last night. Yesterday afterhoon a confer. ence of all the judges of the Sup~ reme Court considered at length a draft of the new regulations which had been prepared, It is reported that English pro- cedure will be followed in general although certain deviations will be made in practice. Instead of in- stituting proceedings by a petition, as is done in England, the applicant will file a writ after the manner of « Toronto, June 21,~Rules of pro. || any other action coming before a Judge of the Bupreme Court, loitor Must Make Affidavit Notable is the responsibility plac. ed upon the solicitor for the appli- cant, Not only must there be affi- davits by the parties supporting the statement of claim, which they must swear to be the truth in the limits of thelr knowledge, but the solicitor acting for the applicant must file an affidavit swearing that he, too, believes in the allegations in the statement of claim to be true after investigation 'by himself. In this way collusion will be reduced to a minimum, Examination If there should be collusion, the solicitor will be liable to examina- tion as tb why he made his affidavit as he did when the facts of the case were not actually as stated, Co-respondents will be protected to the extent of being allowed to call witnesses of their own to re- fute the allegations of the appli eant, and will be defendants to the action, The defendant will probably have a limited time in which to file his defence, and no affidavit will be de- manded of his solicitor as from that of the applicant. As was an- nounced a week age, no dissolu- tion will be granted on the default of the defendant, as applies to or- dinary actions, Hearings in Public Hearings will be conducted In public without a jury by judges on elrouit, It is not likely that any re- gulations will be made regarding the admission of the press following the precedent of the House of Lords, Actions for alimony and custody of children associated with the dis- solution sought will be heard at the same time but suits for damages will have to go before a jury in a reparate action, The place of the King's proctor who attends examinations for dis covery and trial in England, will be taken by the attorney-general's of- fice dnd will likely mean the crea- ton bf a new office in that depart. ment, IT ALL DEPENDS (Faun, Vienna) Mald (returning from shopping, very sadly): "The grocer gave mo the wrong change," Mistress: "Go and get it put right this minute!

WOMEN WANT FEWER IMMIGRANTS Members Extend Kindness to New Canadians and Plan Welfare Work Ste, Anne De Bellevue, June 24---Restricted immigration finds favour in the eyes of the women of Quebec, according to the report of the immigration depart- ment submitted to this afternoon's session of the Quebe¢' Women's Institute 17th annual convention. Canadian farmers were having a hard enough time holng their own row under existing conditions, the report, which was prepared by Mrs, W. H, Holmes of Stanstead, pro» vinclal convener of immigration, and rend by Miss Hazel McCain, Q.W.I, superintendent, stated, The warmest goodwill toward the New Canadian was expressed by the eight counties which had taken an active interest in immigration work. Endless acts of neighborly kindness were reported, Typleal of these was the old-fashioned "boo" where wood was cut and hauled for an immigrant family, Criticism was forwarded from one county, however, that the new Can« adians stayed only a short while on the farms before moving into the city. Canada should aim at bullding up a magnificent mosaic retaining all the brilliant colour of its vari. ous immigrants, Miss Doris Ray- nor, secretary of the international department of the Montreal Y,W.C0, A. stated in an address on 'The New Canadian in our Midst," Miss Hazel McCain urged a kitchen gar. den for every home. A wide pro- gramme of welfare was followed by all the institutes during the past year, she sald, Hot lunches, med- feal Inspection, first ald kits and sanitary conveniences had been pro- vided in the schools, And now an opportunity for further service was being afforded through the Publle Health Units organized by the Pro- vineial Department of Health, No groater laurel could rost on the Quebec Women's Institutes than that they were instrumental in as- sisting this work, "We are pleased to notice the place given on your programme to the study of the various phases of home economics. Not cookery only, an was once the case, but nutrition, dietetics, house-management, we onomios, Interior decoration, tex- tiles and their close associates, dressmaking and laundry," Miss Que, The new Puss Moth, bailt In England for De Haviland Alrcraft of Canada.

It was the new rule of a certain cotton mill in the North of England to pay the wages of its workmen every fortnight, instead of every week, The mill-hands, however, soon found the custom very inconvenient, and it was decided to send a dele- gate to the manager of the firm to state their grievance, Murphy, who was always a good spokesman on such occasions, was chosen for the task, and the follow- ing morning found him interview- ing the manager. "And what can I do for Murphy?" asked the latter. "Well, sir" sald the spokesman, getting to the point straight away, I've been sent as a delegate for the workmen to ask a favor of you re- garding the wages." "Yes, and what is it?" asked the manager wonderingly. "This, sir," went on Murphy, "It's the desire of the men and my- self that we receive our fortnight's pay every week."

WIilful neglect of forest resources and thus by des~ troying the forests and streamflow uncontrolled has resulted in ever» recurring floods, erosion, drought and consequent famine, It may be a far cry from China to Canada, but pestilential fly orig« inated in China and worked havoe there, China's present condition of famine and terrific taxation, as Canadian Forest and Outdoors as« serts, may well be a message to Canadians to take heed while we still have forests to administer, MUST TRE SMITHY GO? (Toronto Globe) Surely the blacksmith---especiale ly the village blacksmith--is not going to disappear altogether, Yet, at the rate of decrease noted at the annual convention of horses shoers in Toronto, this is among the probabilities. It was stated that four years ago there were In Ontars io 2,400 blacksmith shops, and that now there are only 1,800, In ads dition to this, young men nowadays are not learning the blacksmith trade. All this seems to indicate extinction, - PREVENTABLE TULNESS (Manitoba Free Press) The loss to Canada through ums necessary sickness is greater than the total value of the production of the mines of the Dominion, many times gredter than the value of the products from sea and ine land fisheries.
