HENRY, PREMIER OF ONTARIO AND MINISTER OF HIGHWAYs â€"â€" Experienced drivers of motor cars have learned that there is one rule of the road which cannot be violated without danger to life Hill tops and curves are blind spots on the highway. You can‘t see what is coming toward you . . . and there‘s almost always sure to be another car coming around the curve or over the hill. The one safe rule is to stay on your side of the road . . . the right After all you can observe the "Hill and Curve rule" for a whole season without losing as much as sixty minutes‘ time all told . . .

Showers of biessing, showers of rain. THE DURHAM REVIEW NORTH VICKERS DORNOCH HAMPDEN Sharpe spent Friday evâ€" Mr and Mrs Harry Reay In closing Mr King suggested the need of two conferences: one beâ€" tween the Dominion and the Provinâ€" ces, to discuss financial arrangeâ€" ments and to come to some method of delimiting the fields of revenues and exponditures and so arrange matâ€" ters that taxes in municipalities, provinces aud the Dominion will not unnecessarily be increased at this time. The second conference should be of employers, employees, trade unicns, farmers organizations, wom en‘s organizations, Red Cross and the like. Mr Kiug suggested that this group should appoint a com. to handle all the money for the unemâ€" ployed, that they should report back to the Gov‘t. In this way overlapping would be prevented and the Auditor Generai would audit all the expendiâ€" ture they made, It was at the conâ€" clusion of these remarks that the Prime Minister laughed, providing a porfect finish for his opponent‘s speech. We might now cancel out Mr. King‘s "not a fivecent piece" speech of last session and Mr. Benâ€" nett‘s laughter. Mr E. J. Garland of Bow River, in| replying to Mr King‘s attack on the[ policy of lcaving the gold standard,! qucted eminent authorities in this country and others. Mr Neill of the‘ Royal Bank and Sir Herbert Holt have both said that the principal couse of the present condition in this country and throughout the world is a wrong monetary policy. Sir Basil Blackett, one of the directors of the Bank of England, was quoted as folâ€" lows: "The basic cause of the presâ€" ent difficulty lay in the banking methâ€" ods, and in a too rigid gold standard and in the monetary policy generally.,‘ Sir Josiah Stamp has said, "Many of cur troubles would pass if the bankâ€" ers could only be weancd from their traditicrnal beliefs." It was Mr Garâ€" land‘s cpinion that there was no hope of trade recovery under cur present :lavish devotion to a gold standard. The League of Nations have had for some time, a gold committee, studyâ€" ‘ng this problem. One member of hat committee, Gustavy Cassel, in ipoaking of the break in prices in ‘920â€"21, said: "The downward moveâ€" ‘ nent of prices has not as is someâ€" imes assumed, been merely a sponâ€" aneous result of forces beyond our ontrol: it is entirely the result of a wolicy deliberately framed with a iew to bringing down prices and of ziving a higher value to the mone tary unit." "I make my suggestion in all good faith, not as the leader of a partyâ€" and the Prime Minister laughs at | :. ! the Prime Minister laughs !" Thus dramatically Mrâ€" Mackenzie ‘K.‘x;-g closed his four hour speech on itho Budget, a speech. which, while much too long and lacking that deâ€" ]gxee of constructive thought which one would wish to hear from a Libâ€" cral leader in these distressing and trying times, was sufficiently good to hold the attention of the House and "the galleries throughout the whole of its length. _ Though much of it was political a note of real concernâ€" rather troubled concern â€" over our present condition could be heard. While it is much easier to claim the ccmmon pecple as ane‘s friends in opposition than in â€" government, the vigorous championing of the: cause of the people by the Leader ofi the Opposition has value. Mr King: was possibly weakest in his attack upon the suggestion in the sub aâ€" mondment, that Canada should . susâ€" pend redemption of Dominion notes ia gold in order that prices might be raised, debts lessened and ‘busiâ€" ress helped. "Why fly to the ills we know not of to get away from the ills which beset us now." He adâ€" mitted that suspensions took place in Canada after war was declared1 in 1914 and in United States after tl:> Civil War had commenced, but "we are neither in an international or civil war, and why should we arnounce to mankind that this Parâ€" lament has felt it necessary to adopt in times of peace in Canada, a meaâ€" sure which thus far nations have found it necessary to adopt only unâ€" der great stress, sudh as in time of war." Miss Macpbail‘s Weekly Letter to the Review In my speech on the Budget, I statâ€" id my grounds for opposing it. The Budget made no mention of the need f change in the monetary system. nor did it provide for any change. 3y it, arrangement is made to balâ€" ‘nce the budget next year by addiâ€" lonal taxation on an already overâ€" murdensd people. The Firance Min ister could have issued currency hrough the Treasury Board, against ‘he assets of Canada, to the amount x the deficit, or if not prepared to go so far, could have borrowed at low rates of interest. The new taxzps vill be paid largely with borrowed money; the individual borrows it with great difficulty and at high rates of interest: the taking of the 75 or 80 millien dollars out of the already painfully limited purchasing power of the people will still further intensify +he depression,. The Budget exempted the incomes of the very rich from migher rates of taxation and for that reason, if no other, should be opposâ€" ed. It made no provision for the care of the unemployed through the very difficult winter facing us; it inâ€" creased tariffs, and its general effect upon Southâ€"East Grey is detrimental to the best interests of the people. To us it means more taxes. TORONTO Mr and Mrs D. A, Campbell attendâ€" ed service in Knox Church, Durham, Sunday morning. _ Rev. G. A. Little, formerly of Guelph and editor of the United Church publications, was the Mrs. A. Stafford and Miss Viola, were guests of Mr and Mrs T. Grahl}â€" mar, of SuAllivan on Sunday.

Miss Marguerite Corlett spent Sunâ€" day with her parents, Mr and Mrs R. J. Corlett. Mrs Percy Ledingham and baby Doreen were visitors with Durham friends recently. anniversary speaker was the last member of the Governâ€" ment to speak on the Budget. He devoted himself almost exclusively to the financial condition of the Canaâ€" dian National Railways and the Govâ€" ernment‘s attitude toward it. In reâ€" forving to "the Prime Minister laughs‘ incident, he recalled to the House the speech made by Mr. King on unemâ€" ploymert last year, in which he had practically denied the existence . of such a condition and in which he had said, he would not give a fiveâ€"cent piece for the relief of unemployment to any province of this country under a Conservative regime, and at that time there were six provinces with Conservative governments. "And now he cries, as though he had discovered the villain in the pece, ‘the Prime Minister laughs‘ No wonder the Piime Minister laughed; who would pot laugh at such an attitude as that taker by the Rt. Hon,. Gentleman." Dr. Manion‘s spcech, while dealing largely with figures, was very well done. He gave the following as his conclusions: "If the depression pasâ€" ses, if unwise capital expenditures are not indulged in, if costly adverâ€" tising stunts are eliminated, if proper eccromic management is brought inâ€" to nlay, and if the people of this country are reasonable in their de mands as to freight rates and capital expenditures, I think within five years there will be a much more hopeful end cheerful picture in connection with both the great railways of Canâ€" ada than‘there is at the present time . . . The real friends of the Nationâ€" . al Railways are those who believe in ‘ care, caution and economy in the polâ€" | icies of the road." The vote on the Budgct was never for a moment in doubt. It carried with a very substantial majority and | now we discuss it item by item. With many estimates yet to be voted, the Beaubarnois investigation only beginâ€" ning, we are likely to be here for a month longer.
