Roadhouse, Deputy Minister of Agriculture, to the past of Chairman of the Ontario Agri- cultural Development Board. and the appointment of a new Deputy Minister in the person of James B. Fairbairn of Beamsville, has been announced by the Hon. John S. Martin. Minister of Agriculture. Mr. Roadhouse has been 'acting chairman of the Development ’Board since last summer, and much of lthe credit for the successful work in '--v vâ€" w W 1929 was due to his admiration. Mr. Roadhouse has been Deputy Minister for eighteen years.

It is doubly so for the present one, which has not only the task of reconciling sectional demands, Canadian West versus Quebec, but also i the personal disagreements between its ministers. Hon. Mr. Euler, despite lhis lack of sympathy with the Govern- ment’s liquor clearance policy, still sits around the council board. But the dis- sension which he represents is com- paratively negligable in comparison with the wide- cleavage between Hon. T. A. Crerar of like free-trade sympa- thies, Hon. Charles Dunning of recent- ly professed low tariff convictions, and the Quebec and Ontario wing of the ministry. If the ministry were to wait until all differences in its rank were reconciled, and until all its conflicting ’ views were brought into line, before pre- senting its budget, it is a safe bet that' Parliament would not receive the Fin- ance Ministers’ proposals this side of prorogation. It will be essentially a compromise budget which will be delivered. There will be, so to speak, a patchwork pro. gram with each piece calculated to ap- peal to some section of the country. While the time for profitable specula- tion is rapidly passing in view of the imminence of the Speech itself (it will probably be delivered on Thursday or Friday) a few general prophecies can - be made with reasonable assurance that 0 they will be fulfilled. So far as the Maritimes are concerned a bid for their support will be made by means of a gesture towards protec- tion for the iron and steel industries. The West will be offered an increase in the British preference as the shadow, if not the substance; of a concession to its supposed low tariff sympathies. What of Ontario and Quebec? It is known that some measure of retaliation against the United States for its tarifl increases would be popular in these provinces, but will the government bec, would react favorably towards a sesonable tariff on early fruits and veg- etables. Decision upon these knotty points is reputedly engaging the Fed- eral Ministers in their present labors to bring the budget forth. Business is likely to be appeased by a reduction in the rate of the sales tax. Trade agreements with New- foundland, Greece, and the Argentine are also forecast. Generally the budget will have an Imperial cast, and the development of inter-Empire trade is expected to bulk large in the Finance Minister’s speech. ' A As has been forecast, the budget will be a pre-election one. Events are steadily marching to the election goal. This has been true during 'the Easter vacation no less while the house um in session. at peneved that the Prime Minister's nomay oowu m Bermuda was one entirely away from politics. Close observers are remarking upon the fact that Senator MacDougall and Senator Hayden were his compan- ions on the trip.
