Teacher sai Speaking at the 17th annual dinner of the Canadian Railway Club in Montreal Saturday, Hon. # Arthur Meighen, 'minister of the | interior, said in reference to na- tionalization of railways: "I beleive that, after the lapse of years, the railw 'ays running to- day under various ownerships and always becoming fewer, may mature in to one great organiza 'tion more or less the property and the responsibility of the state.

Hon. Mr Meighen further said '| that when the Grand Trunk was finally acquired the government mileage would be 22,1000 miles. {This would be the largest railway responsibility assumed by any single crgnnization on the face of the globe. a er |CHURCH OF ENGLARD BS and . 1a cross, obelisk. cairn or structure of similar char- Mayor.
