temperance act passed bytiie commons after midnight on saturday leaves to provinces which have prohibited the sale of liquor for beverage purposes the right to determine for themselves whether or not importation of liquor for domestic consumption shall also be forbidden to make the new federal legislation operative to prevent such importations it is necessary first for the provincial legislature to pass a resolution asking the dominion government to hold a plebiscite on the question and second for the dominion govern ment to take the vote and proclaim its result with such a vote as was given on the recent referendum there is little doubt that the people of ontario will vote by an overwhelming majority for a bonedry province when the plebiscite is placed before them the official returns of the election for member of the provincial legislature in this county show that mr j f ford the candidate of the united farmers of ontario received a majority of iq4 this is the largest majority ever given a legislative candidate in haltons history mr ford is surely to be con gratulated upon his exceptionally large majority especially as he had for his opponents two of the strongest men in the county dr nixon and e h cleaver barrister mr ford has much to live up to with such a majority as he secured he is in good company however and the legislation of the new government will not likely be harmful to halton in any respect- very few war bond holders will be liable for in come tax there is an impression abroad that the t4al amount of money invested by any one sub- scriper in the victory loan 1919 will be subject to taxation this impression is erroneous it will be the interest from the investment that will be taxed not the principal invested as a matter of fact very f ow investors in the newjoan will be brought within the scope of the incomewar act by reason of invest ments in victory bonds with small estates and investors the law docs not become effective under 2000 in the case of married persons or persons with dependents and 1000 in the case of unmarried per sons without dependents municipalities and fra ternal societies will not be subject to taxation on their investments in the loan at all the interest from the bonds will not be more taxable than ordin- any income subject to the general law of the land canadas shipbuilding activities have so far proven both advantageous and profitable some interest ing statements as to the governments shipbuilding programme were made by hon c c jiallantync minister of marine last week the business done by the ships built owned and operated by tho gov ernment has been so remunerative that the net profit from their operation during their first year will re pay their cost price if tho government desired to dispose of the vessels mr ballantyne said it could do so now at a profit if the dominion had not possessed a certain number of ships to carry products to foreign countries trade would have been seriously hampered during the present year all tho ships built on the great lakes and placed in ocean service are booked for full cargoes until june next the shipbuilding programme so lor undertaken called for the construction of fiftythree vessels a substan tial number of which have been delivered or will be delivered this year indications arc that this lost week will be farmers week in the volume of victory loan subscriptions this was the experience last year for during the last few days of the drive fanners subscriptions came in very rapidly at tho meeting in the town hall on saturday evening j f ford m 1 i of the united farmers of ontario in his address on the victory loan said i givo it as my sincere convic tion that the purchase of victory borrds is one of the very best things we can do for our nation and for ourselves anyone would be loath to believe that the farmers who of all classes of the community arc most directly interested in a heavy oversubscrip tion to the present loan arc apathetic more than one third of the proceeds of the last loan was spent directly in tho purchase of canadian wheat and other foodstuffs and rcsold to great britain and allied countries on credit that is to say 207750000 of the money subscribed a year ago went into the poc kets of tho farmer and without these heavy pur chases the farmer would have been obliged to dispose of his surplus product at a probable loss the amount that will bo spent during tho coming year in financing credits to overseas purchasers of can adas agricultural products is wholly contingent on tho extent of the oversubscription to this years loannthcrefore if miy farmer is desirous of seeing the present oversea market for hi products main- tafned he will help pile up the total of bond-sub- scrip liana canada may be able to export 113000000 busnels of wheat in 191920 this is the encouraging pros pect based upon figures from official sources can ada requires for home consumption purposes ap proximately 40000000 bushels of wheat and for seeding purposes about 35000000 according to au thorities on this subject the governments estimate that the dominions yield will run about 130000000 bushels makes it appear possible for canada to ex port about 113000000 bushels in 101020 or about 10000000 bushels more than last year and keep a few million bushels for carryover stock on august 1 1920 of course canadas export trade depends largely upon the success of the victory loan sir thomas white exfinance minister for the domin ion drew attention to the importance of this fact when he said that in addition to other credits 170 oq0000 had been loaned to great britain in connec tion with the single commodity of wheat last year this would have been impossible if the victory loan of 1918 had not beerra great success the circula tion of this big sunr meant prosperity to vast num bers of canadians and if good times are to be con tinued canadians must lend of their profits and their savings with

among tho united farmers and independent labor party who will com pose the new government to form a cabinet well qualified to supervise the business of the province notwithstanding its strong political predilections the toronto world paid this high compliment to the members of the legislature who will compose the provincial government the other day anyone who watched the group of farmers and labor men emerg ing from thetrafternoon caucus must have been im- pressed with their solid intelligent and gentlemanly appearance they gave the impression of being superior to the average

them than any similar number of legislative members in other facul ties these men aro independent and successful farmers and that requires resource and initiative these are not arts like reading and writing for special purposes but qualities of character capablo of application in any situation to politics as well as to plowing i at ho present time canadas rating on the now york money market stands higher than that of any foreign nation and it is possible for her to obtain funds on that market on more favorable- terms than any other country the reason for this as any finan cier will vouch is canadas increased production and the prosperity sho has enjoyed by the sale of her surplus products at favorable prices in great britain and europe this vast system of marketing was effected through credits for which victory lor subscriptions provide tho working capital if for instance the public should turn an indifferent car to the victory bond salesmen now at work our pros perity and credit would be impaired our production dwindle and everyone would feel the menace of pov erty there is good reason to hopo that canadians are awake to their responsibility and opportunity tho allusion to canadas high rating pn wall street brings up another phase of tho loan question while canada can borrow abroad on more favorable terms than any other nation it is not desirable that she should do so for that would take large sums out of the country in anriual interest payments u would help build upthe prosperity of tho united stat at our expense it is much more expedient that canadians should themselves bo tho lenders and that tho interest should stay in the pockets of her own people if it is profitable for wall street to loan money to canada it is equally profitable for
