Bo your radio is going to cost you 850. 96 tor duty and taxes although its iz.vcice price is only $42.75." Col. Ralston pointed out theta duty of 120 per cent and taxes had to be paid on that one article. situation, the trade, the untionnnd taliway system in Canada. He twit- ted the Government over its return to the sales and nuisance taxes and quoted speeches made by Mr Cain!) and the Prime Minister when they were in opposition. Col. Balaton claimed that the sales tax at the time the Liberal party went from power, would cost a family spending $750 a year, the sum of $7.50. whereas un- der the rule this year they would pay 846. Some weeks ago the prime minister the Rt. Hon. R. B Bennett had said that the Government worked 20 hrs a. day. Col. Balaton thought it re- markable that they trot any sleep at all since they required to know the value of “sheets and iron and steel. fruits. vegetables, ,peas, livestock common and colourless window glass, bean-pork, tir doors, dried egg albu- men. meats prepared or preserved, giapes. hats, hoods, shapes, bodies, cape-lines. radio receiving sets, wick- er furniture, Jute twines, cotton tab- ries, artificial fabrics, wiping rags. wire pot cleaners, nursery stock and baby pants." The decrease in exports wu blamed on the tariff preventing Imports, and the Government was criticized for not having included some British prefer- ence in the budget as a friendly ges- ture preceding the Imperial Confer- cncc. Ccl. Ralstcn concluded his speech w'th an amendment asking the Home to condemn the excessive in. creases in tariff and the power to set duties for customs purposes by Order- in-Council. The firgt speaker on the Govern- ment side of the general budget de. bate was the Hon. H. H. Stevens, Mmister of Trade and Commerce. His speech was well constructed and his delivery excellent. After replying to the crltlcism of Mr. Ralston, he Mil. Hawhail’. Wnkly Letter in discussing interest the Min. ot ' Trade and Commerce said: "No agri- _ cuiturist. no industrialist and no merchant can afford to pay 10 per 'cent interest tor the money he uses i in his business: it simply cannot be done. Normal business will not per- nut of that rate ot interest." Even though the amount of interest had not increased. all interest that had to be paid by the sel- I lig of commodities, had actually in- (if/ici:. On a farm loan of $2000, in- lttX‘CSL at 8 per cent would require ' $160. in 1928, 133 bushels of wheat lwould pay the interest, whereas in '1931. though the interest was still l $160, it required 266 bushels of _ wheat to pay it. went on to nip what ya quite evi- dently a. tsarutsttr prepared statement at the (males at ttrdar's diacnlgigs. There were, he said, (our disturblnc factors: _ price leveia. debt. mt and trade. Price levels are admittedly the moat disturbing'tutor to-day, he said. Could we restore the price lee. els of 1928 for wheat, copper, paper, lumber and ttah, we would restore prosperity to Canada. "What is the cause of this drop in commodity .pri- ees"? he asked. “Prices are express. " in terms of currency, and in the; leading countries of the world, the; value of currency is attached to gold. " gold is scarce or being boarded. if gold is in abnormal demand tor debts, then inevitably commodity prices will tall simply because people will be an. xious to dispose of their commodities in order to secure gold to meet their debts. We are confronted with this situation and it is admitted by every- one that gold is scarce. To my mind that is perhaps the underlying cause of most of our troubles today '. we must now admit, and I think it will be admitted, that the value or pur- chasingpower ot money does vitally afteet commodity prices." The Minister of Trade and Com- merce then went on to show that commodity prices have tiuetuated vi- olently in the last couple ot years. He pointed out that while a ton of copper Weighed 2000 lbs in 1928 and continued to weight the same num- number of pounds in 1931, the ton sold tor $380 in 1928 as against $120 in 1931. He took as his second ex- ample, wheat, which of course re mains at 60 lbs from year to year, but the value of it fell from $1.20 in 1928 to 60e in 1931. The Minister stated that the tlrtrt and most im- portant step was to stabilize the pur- chasing power ot money. Dealing with debt, Hon. H. H. Stevens, said: “The world is aunkin a veritable morass of debt." And he pointed out that the weight of debt in this as well as all other countries has been doubled, due to the drop in commodity prices. For this statement he got hearty applause from those who sit "angulariy opposite." We can all clearly see that swam- an whose revenue came from eggs and who contracted a debt in 1930 when eggs were selling in the winter around 45e a. doz., would have to have three times as many eggs to pay the debt in March cf this year: that is her debt had trebled when meas- ured in commodlty prices. In commenting upon Mr Stevens statement, Mr Gardiner, the leader o' the Farm Group in the House, said it was impossible tor a Western farmer to pay 5 per cent on his in. debtedness as It was tor him to pay 10 per cent, or in other words he could pay neither. Mr Gardiner M. vocated the taxing of incomes above $25,,000 a year to a degree that would mourn. to motion! conscrip- tion of Income when that mount.

He was urging that the Gov't forms Radium Commission to take charge ot the development of the radium held and the putting of this lifesav- ing metal on the market at the low; est possible cost. Only 800 grammes ot radium for medicinal purposes is available in the whole world. It is used In the treatment of cancer. 95 per cent of all radium is found in the Belgian Congo. The wholesale price of it is 850.000 a gramme, retail $70, 000. General Home gave some very interesting statistics in regard to cancer and its treatment by radium: he quoted a Philadelphia authority tor the statement that 960 grammes would be needed In United States it all the cancer cases there were to be treated with radium. spent, In the tank that God at Journey's end.

General McKee believes that a carload a day ot the ore could be mined and should that be the case, in a year the Great Bear lake de- posits could produce 1,880 grammes. The Dept. ot Mines of the Federal Gov't estimate that it would cost $10, 000 a gramme, but the General be. lleves it could be done for a little in excess of 85,000.
