Mr Vallance had been quoting cop iously from letters written during these years by Sir George Foster, which stated that the wheat of these two years was not all sold on the basis of $2.21 a bushel (No 1 Northâ€" ern) but "for different prices owing to changes in the world‘s market price," when, without ado, Mr kobt. FEED It will pay you. DURKAM. ONT. Shorts annnnnnns es e t Rogers rose to address the House. He had been a close associate of Sir Geo, Foster and Sir Robt. Borden. He told of being in England in 1917 and that conversations had taken place with imperial authorities reâ€" rarding the price of wheat. Mr Rogâ€" ers told Mr Balfour of Gt Britain that Canada would take "whatever price the Americans would agree to." Mr Balfour went to Washington and latâ€" er came to Ottawa. Mr Rogers said he met Mr Balfour at the station in Ottawa and that he, Mr Balfour took a sheet of paper from his pocket and havded @t to him. ‘"That sheet conâ€" tains the proposals of the United States which were that they would be ready to sell their wheat at $2.21, provided Canada would agree to a similar proposal. While I read it Mr Balfour was standing beside me. He asked me what I thought of it and I answered ‘we will agree to that price also‘ so the price was fixed and it lasted for two years. It was almost as startling as if someone from the past had come in to address the House. Most of his associates of that day are gone on, or at any rate reâ€" tired from public life. Members conâ€" tested his statements, but all felt it was a historic incident. A resolution by Mr Woodsworth preâ€" cipitated a general debate on the right of Canada to amend her own constitution. Students of the subject were pleased with the debate and felt that regardless of party there was a general admission that our new â€"status of Nationhood brings with it added responsibility. Wamust have the right to amend the constiâ€" tution that we have, or to write a constitution in keeping with the conâ€" ditions of toâ€"day. After quite a lengâ€" thy debate the resolution was with drawn. I again introduced my â€" resolution \ asking for scholarships and | chairs t in Canadian Universities to promote ; . international understanding and good | . will. This resolution last year was| referred to the Committee on Indusâ€"| t. _# .n:d International relations, and . after hearing as witnesses Dr Skel-‘ ton, Under Secretary of the Dept. of External Affairs, Prof, Norman Mcâ€"| Kenzie, head of the Dept. of Interâ€" national Law atToronto University,‘ Dean Corbett of the Dept. of Law,| McGill University, and others, thatl Committce reported and asked that| the whole subject be given further consideration by committee of thel House at the next session of Parlla.-‘i ment. The evidence of last year made | clear that Canada lacks Library faâ€"| cilities for the study of internation | al relations, that more scholarships enabling students to go abroad and} | others to come to Canada were needâ€"| ‘ ed. Aiso that Canada has not a gradâ€" ‘uato college whickh would prepare \ Canadian students to prepare for serâ€" | vice in the legations abroad. . It is ‘ claimed education is a provincial | matter and that the Federal Gov‘t : could not assist the universities unâ€" der the constitution. The professors of law believed once the principle was accepted, constitut®nal methods ‘for assistance could be found. _ Mr. | Lapointe last year and Mr Guthrie \this year, speaking as Minister of | Justice agreed. â€" However, Mr Guthâ€" ‘tie did not approve of my resolution, : but moved that it be sent to Comâ€" ‘ mittee, but since an outstanding minister of the cabinet h:s dechretz |for assistance C | Lapointe last ye ‘this year, speak | Justice agreed. rie did not appr : but moved that 1 ongam > tunt ~ ud it gince Government 4 td | members are in the majority on the Committee, the chances of getting anything done this year are slight. Mr G. G. Coote, M. P. McLeod, Alâ€" berta, by resolutions asked for the establishment in Canada of a naâ€" tionally owned central bank. He argâ€" | ued that it would have a tendency to ; stabilize price levels, _ He bellevedl coâ€"cperation of central banks over the world was necessary in the peo~‘ ple‘s interest and he quoted C. E. Neill, Vice Pres. and managing dir ector of the Royal Bank thus: "If the central banks of all the countries on the gold basis, should deliberately aâ€" dopt a common policy, they could within a certain time lag, raise or lower the price level almost at will. Without a common policy movements in gold would in due course arrest | action of one country not in harmony | with the policy of others." The Prime Minister in his reply said litâ€" | tle about stabilizing the price level | but extolled the excellence of our | banking system. The resolution was | talked out. A hot interchange took place beâ€" tween: the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett and the Leader of the Opposition, Rt. Hon. MacKenâ€" zle King over the resignation of Mr Vincent Massey, High Commissioner in London, the Prime Minister claimâ€" ing he resigned while Mr King claimâ€" ed that he was asked to resign. The League of Nations Society ot‘ Canada held its annual meeting this week. The audience was representaâ€" tive of the Dominion, distant cities being represented in many cases by members of Parliament or their wives. Dr Tory, President, was in the chair. Membership and money contributions have fallen off someâ€" what this year. An encouraging feaâ€" ture is the increase in corporate memberships: a whole organization becomes a member of the League of Nations Society for $10, receiving "Interdependence" and other literaâ€" ture. Dr Tory stressed the fact that this sort of membership was very valâ€" uable both to the members of the organization and the League of Naâ€" tions Society. A new development is the formation of the Canadian Uniâ€" versities League of Nations society. At least ten branches have been orâ€" ganized in the different universities. An interesting editorial appeared in | the Vancouver Sun recently pointing ‘ out the teriflic burden of government borne by Canadians. It was speaking of the four western provinces only and gave the cost as follows: Maniâ€" toba â€"15,000,000; Alberta 17,000,000 :‘ Sask. and British Columbia 29,000,000 ‘ each and on top of that the 90,000,§ v00 collected by the Gov‘t at Ottawa. "Ii is at once seen to be a much larâ€" ger amount than the people of these four provinces can continue to pay and is out of all proportion to the service necessary and the service renâ€" dered." It goes on to contrast the work done by the League of Nations whose total budget last year was only 5,000,000, "yet more leadership, more government and more real help to the human family emanated from the League of Nations last year than from any twenty states or provinces in the world.
