Advantage Over U.S. i Ottawa, Dec. 6.--Already substan- | tial results are being obtained from reached at the conference in Ottawa on June 18th, of this year. Trini- dad's new tariff, effective since No- vember 15th, increased the Canadian preference to 33 1-3 per cent, on a | large amount of articles and food products, and a number of articles 'are admitted free. The former pre- ference secured in 1912 was 20 per cent. on a limited number of articles. According to the trade agreement reached last June, Barbardos, British Guina and Trinidad were to give Can- ada a 50 per cent. preference, British Hondnras, the Windward and Lee- ward Islands were to give 33 1-3 per cent., Jamaica and Bermudas 25 per cent., and the Bahamas 10 per cent. These, terms were to be ratified by the legislature of the several col- onies and Trinidad has implemented the agreement, - While the agreement called for a 50 per cent. preference with Trinidad and there is a 33 1-3 on a large list, it is probable the ex- tensive free list more than makes up for a general 50 per cent. preference.

'Mr. Drury said: "The report of my remarks and the inference attempted to be drawn from them are 'absoluetly mislead- ing and uatrue:. What I said, in substance) was that the Farmer-La- bor party in Ontario, which had be- gun by the desire of two classes in the community to get adequate re- presentation and which had unexpec- tedly been called upon to take the re- sponsibility of government, now re- presented the views of thousands of people who belong to neither of these classes, and that if we are to con- tinue, we must of necessity broaden out and take in other people of like minds. In doing so, I added, even the name of the party would probably have to be superseded, and if I were to suggest a name I would suggest the lame of the "People's Progress- ive party." "There was not one word uttered | by me that would give ground for | the statement that the two parties were otherwise than in perfeet har- mony.

J. Gauthier "Tells Le Devoir. Ottawa, Dec. 6.--The presence of | Hon. Rudolphe Lemieux has again | given force to reports that the prime | minister has succeeded in making a | breach in the ranks of Quebec Laurier Liberalism, and that the next few weeks will find the French-Canadian province with representation in' the ministry. Thus far, however, there is nothing very solid upon which to base such a belief. True, L. J. Gau- thier has been in thé capital, has seen the prime minister, and has ad- mitted that his interview had to do with the political situation in Quebec, but apart from this, circumstantial evidence Jf something unusual be- hind the scenes, there is nothing to indicate that Mr. Gauthier is enter- ing .he cabinet or even arranging for the entry of somebody else. The best opinion here, and the most likely to be true, is that Mr. Gauthier, aaving indicated his own willingness to enter the ministry, has been asked to give some ev.dence as to what extent his attitude represents the mind of his province, and as to whether he can bring with him into the cabine* one or two other men of strength and influence among French-Canadians and that Mr. Gau- | thier has set out 10 see what he can achieve. There are some here who, remem- ing Mr. Gautliler's past, express nde; that he should be selected as the agenéy to bring about reconcilia- tion with Quebec, but as against' be, body had to be found to break the ice and that Mr. Meighen was not in a | position to select his man.

CANADA'S NATIONAL DEBT IS INCREASED Owing to Heavy Pa Interest on ns. ments of ar Ottawa, Dec. 6.--In spite of higher revenues, there was again last month an increase in the net national debt. Heavy payments of interest on war loans were chiefly responsible for the expenditure, total interest payments last month amounting to nearly $35,- 000,000, as compared with less than $23,000 000 in November, 1919. Both for the month and for the eight months ending November 20th, grdinary revenue shows a heavy in- crease over last year's. In November, 1920, ordinary revenue totaled 322, . 517,313; In November, 19194 $31 618,701.
