An interesting guide as to the more important factors which must be considered in this connection is supplied by the Field Husbandman of the Dominion Department of Agricul- ture, who says: No matter to what heights you may have attained, no matter to what depths you may have fallen, to her you are still “my boy” or “my girl."

Some of these items, such as those relating to the cost of manual and horse la- bor, are very easily figured because in these instances it is possible to record exactly the number of hours worked on the various crops and then multiply this by the cost per hour of this labor. With other items, however, such as the cost of manure, it is necessary to make an assumption regarding what percent- ages of the total cost should be charged against each particular crOp in the ro- Collyer, Mr. Collyer’s mother. who pre- sides with queenly grace at the Guelph, Ontario. home.)

The House did not sit on Thursday. Ascension Day. nor on Wednesday evening, so a was a short week. The Beauharnoie in- vestigation with a subsequent condem- nation of the three Senators involved seemstohavebeenbroughttoahead by the resignation of Senator McDon- gald. Senator Haydon is acknowledged to be a seriously ill man and Senator Raymond was to be treated gently since the Government has no desire to get in wrong with Quebec, so that’s that. The House of Commons passed a resolution and then a bill giving power to the Governor-in-Council to author- ize a guarantee of securities of the Canadian National Railway Company made orissuedi’romtimetotimeunder the Canadian National Railways Pin- ancing Act, 1932, to an W139 prin- cipal amount at any time outstanding of 361% millions. The whole Canadian National business is under very severe criticism before a special committee of the House. The investigation into the amount of money spent by the C.N.R. for a home occupied by Sir Henry Thornton, provided the fireworks of the week. It appears that Mr. Decary, one time a director of the Canadian Na- tional Railways, now a real estate man in Montreal, put through the purchase of the residence for Sir Henry Thom- ton, upon which the Company pays an annual rental of $15,000 as well as taxes. The total purchase price was $185,000 and on this it seems that Mr. Decary paid six and a half per cent. interest, but that he charged the C.N.R. Company eight and a half per cent., having, his accusers say, 2 per cent. “velvet.” Decary says that this addi- tional percentage was to provide a fund for amortization; he claimed, if at the end of ten years the property has ap- preciated in value, he will be better of! by $50,000, but if it depreciates in val- ue, he will be out of luck. Through a gruelling cross-examination, he stuck to his story. Mr. Dunning, former Minister of F1- nance, testified before the Committee. It was he who signed the contract for the renewal of the services of Sir Henry Thornton as President of the Can- adian National Railways at a salary of $75000'a year plus reasonable expenses. There had been some discussion, Mr. Dunning said, of giving Sir Henry a bonus of $100,000 in 1028. Mr. Dunning had then expressed the view that the board had no power to give the bonus. At this point, Mr. Chaplin, a member of the Committee said: “In other words the matter came to your atten- tion and was rejected " “Yes,” Mr. Dunning said, “I think that is a fair statement, but in fairness to Sir Hen- ary Thornton I may say that he also rejected it.” during his illness, informed him that some of the directors were still of the opinion that an official house should be provided and that they were in- vestigating the possibility of leasing a house. “I understand that you approved of it,” said Mr. Chaplin. “The approval of the Government and the Minister is given by Order-in- Council," said Mr. Dunning, “And I will stand by that.’ R..” asked Mr. Chaplin. Mr. Dunning said he had not been aware of any such payments but that he had pre- sumed the expenses of the general of- ficers would be distributed throughout the system. He had no knowledge of the Central Vermont and the Grand Trunk Western railways each paying $5000 a year to Sir Henry. Mr. Dunning recalled some talk of the officials of the road regarding a residence for Sir Henry. The purchase of such prOperty would have entailed capital eXpenditure, and as such, would have had to be shown on the estimates and discussed in the House. Mr. Dun- ning had disapproved of such action. Mr. Chaplin: “While you were Minister did the proposal to lease a house, free, for the manager of the road, come to your attention?" Mi . Dunning replied that the Board of Directors were not required to submit proposals of leas- ing to the Minister of Railways. He had been ill in the hospital in 1929; when he returned to his work the late J. A. “At that time were you aware of any payments being made to Sir Henry by any subsidiary companies of the C. N. It looks as’ though the Radio Com- mittee would report in favor of the principle of public ownership, setting up a commission of three with power It is becoming plain that publicly owned enterprises need, if they are to be successful, socially minded mph: to run them. The National Railways and Hydro system are experiments in state ownership in a wholly capitalistic so- cietyâ€"a society in which the prevail- ing ideal is private gain, it need be at public expense.
