There are those who say it should have gone further, others that it should contain provisions for immediate relief, and one or two that the rate which will be obtainable is not sufficient. But while these criticisms are heard all agree that it is a worthy effort and deserves support. In the creation of the fund weekly contributions will be made by the workers, the employers and the government as follows: Uependentsâ€"URII ............ccsulsl 15 .90 It is expected that 1,500,000 persons wil} participate in the fund when it is a short time in operation. The conâ€" tributions from the workers is comparatively smallâ€"25 cents a week by men, and 7 cents for boys of 16 years. It is suggested that Premier Hepburn wil} oppose its passage, contending that the province alone have jurisâ€" diction in such matters. Such a move will make the Ontario Premier even more unpopular than some of his recent acts have shown him to be. _ So popular is this measure that it is supported by prac.â€" tically everyone and will have no difficulty in being passed into law. L uo t en e oR aiier s NC Mr. Marshall‘s act is being removed by the Bennett Govâ€" ernment. In future Ontario farmers will participate in the dominion fund. The Act extends the powers of the Board to loan up to a total of $90,000,000, whereas under the old Act the total was only $15,000,000. The money will be loaned to the farmer at cost. The government must borrow the money. The rate of interest it can seâ€" cure will determine the rate charged to the farmer who secures a loan. It is not expected to be niore than 5 per cent. and hopes are entertained that it may be possible to fix it at a still lower rate. Farmers in every province will be interested in the amendments to the Farm Loan Act introduced by Fiâ€" nance Minister Rhodes. Until the present time the doâ€" minion Act did not apply to the province of Ontario, this province loaning to farmers through the Agriculturai Development Board. Since Mr. Marshall became Minâ€" ister of Agriculture in Ontario the granting of loans has NE by one the planks in Mr. Bennett‘s policy of reâ€" O form are being introduced into parliament. At the last session The Farmers‘ Creditors‘ Arrangement Act, The Marketing Bill, The Canada Bank Act were passed. Although the House has been in session but three weeks, several measures have been introduced. Specially important is the Unemployment Insurance Act, The Farm Loan Amendment Act, The Eight Hour Day Act. There is also the announcement that negotiations with the United States for closer trade agreements have been commenced. The report of the Price Spread Comâ€" mission will, it is felt, be followed by legislation of a far reaching character. The investigation was the most extended in the history of the Dominion. The Commission sat for 123 days, heard 7,500,000 words of evidence, which, when printed, covered 9,000 pages. It is estimatedâ€" that the expenses will amount to about $250,000. This is a lot of money. But there is something on the other side of the account. Against this large outlay it is pointed out that "the inâ€" vestigations carried out by auditors uncovered several cases in which corporations had not met their income tax liabilities in full, and, under pressure of collection from the department of national revenue, a sum estimated at half a million dollars was realized for the Federal treasâ€" ury." This would not only cover all the expenses but give the dominion treasury an amount approaching $250,â€" 000. This is not all. In "additionâ€"and even more subâ€" stantialâ€"has been the benefit to the tobacco industry of ‘Ontario and Quebec as a result of an agreement for the purchase of this year‘s crop which the large tobacco comâ€" panies made, after first the Commission and then the Government, through the marketing board, lent its good offices. It is estimated that for a smaller crop of tobacco than last year, the growers this year are receiving close to $2,000,000 more." There has also followed direct adâ€" vantage to tomato growers of the dominion. That the Commission will report in favor of radical changes to reâ€" move the evils that have been shown to exist and to preâ€" vent their recurrence. It is equally true that Mr. Benâ€" nett will see that the necessary legislation is passed. The people in every walk of lix:é ha;/r;i)een following the work of the Commission and will watch the outcome with the keenest interest. THE Royal Commission on Price Spreads concluded the taking of evidence on Friday and will begin at once the preparation of its report to parliament, which it is expected will occupy three or four weeks.

By this thrust it is hoped to turn voters to Mr, King. Such a statéâ€" ment is too impudent for even the Onâ€" tario premier, and responsible federal Liberals are protesting against it and similar utterances of one who is asâ€" suming the position of a party dictator. . One of the best informed Liberals of the Dominion recently volunteered the statement that two months ago he felt quite confident that the Libâ€" erals would win the next election. He has changed his opinion, "Never in the history of Canada was there such a rapid change in sentiment as that which followed Mr. Bennett‘s adâ€" dresses omer the radio", he declared. Thousands in every part of Canada are expressing similar views, Miss Helen Kinnear, the first woman King‘s Counsel appointed in Canada, if not in the British Empire, handed her patent to Mr. Justice Henderson in the Supreme Court at Toronto recently.
