TR Sole Power For Issue of Notes i Vested in Proposed Corporation a Comunistion Suggests $5,000,000 Corporation on Private Ownership Basis--Recommends Bank be Allow: | to Cortinue Dealings in Bonds - Ottawa, Nov. 12,--Imiediate estab: lishment. of a central bank for Can- pda with a capital of $5,000,000 to be secured -by public stock subscription is recommended in the long-awaited report of the Macmi'lan commission .on banking, releajed here today. : The bank, which would take over the sole right of issuivg notes and have full charge of Canada's gold re- serves, is urged in a majority report from which St, Thomag White and Beaudry Leman submit disseuting opinions. The recommendation con- stitutes the main feature of a com- prehensive 10-page -analysis of the situation in which Canada's banking system comes in for a good deal of «praise and a small measure of mild criticism." Other features include the abolition of the seven per cent, maximum on interest charges for loans and the {ntroduction of general par privi'eges on all cheques, Comnmenting upon the 'imitation of the central bank's capital to $5.000,- 000, the majority report says: "The smaller the capital, within reason, the less ig the necessity to make profits for dividend purposes. By making the shares into gma'l denominations and by limiting the amount which any one shareholder may hold, a wide distribution is effected and a large number of stockholders ensured; both these objects are very desirable." Highlight. 4 The Macmillan ~ commisiion on banking recommends immediate estab: lishment of a central bank for Can. ada. with powers: PRE : 1. To regulate the external level of the Canadian dollar, 2. To take over:frcm commercial panka the sole right 'to issue notes, "8. To co-operate with central banks of 'other British dominions on mone- tary policies to support imperia! trade, 4. To handle bank accounts and financing of the + Dominion Govern- ment, and possibly of the provincial governments 5. To have comp'ete control of the gold reserves of the Dominion, The commission recommends ex- tension of credit to farmess and the setting_up of revised federal mach- inery and an immediate investigation into methods for facilitating this, The commission recommends that bank directors be barred from meet- ings of their boards wherg credits to themselves or their firms ave being discussed, The commission recommends that chartered banks be allowed to con- tinue underwriting and marketing pub'tc bond issues. The commission recommends gen- eral acceptance at par of cheques drawn on other banks. me gs et et + te ae = ---- Three Ave Killed .

Under Miss Kipp's plan, farmers' children may pay for the cafeteria food with produce brought from home.

Ottava.--Bacon exports from Can- ada to the United Kingdom market during the first nine months of 1933 increased by 110 per cent. as compar- ed with the same period last year, says. a report issued by the Dept. of Agriculture," Canada had thus made good 'progress in re-establishing ner bacon on that market, the report con- tinues, but further expansion toward the full measure of the quota depends upon improvement in quality. Recent advices from the British market criticized a considerable per- centage of the Canadian supply on the score of "'underfinish," indicated in the soft and flabby condition of the bacon. This bacon, the department says, was undoubtedly the product of under- finished hogs, of which there were considerable quantity being sold at vards and plants-in Canada at the present time, the animals being at the "light end of the select bacon and ba- con weights."
