Andean: Seeing This [ i in a New lids A marked change has taken place in the mental attitude of the Ameri- can people: they are beginning to realize that they cannot isolate them. selves from the rest ct the world as successfully as they once could. They see, too, that the huge debts which Britain owes them were lines ct cre- dit established by these European countries in the United States to en- able them to buy American goods. These goods were then selling at high prices and by asking them to pay back now as much as they borrowed in Lin days of booming prosperity, means actually that they would be paying back two and three times as much, since money now buys much mare than it did in war times. They also see that the European countries concerned can only secure gold by trading goods which they have for gold, and since the gold countries, (France and United States) will not During dinner I had the opportuni- ty of visiting with Mr and Mrs Hugh. o-Halo. Mr Hallett is the British Ccnsui in Detroit. To my surprise I found that while Canada had 6 Min- ister Plenipotentiary in Washington, in the person of Hon W. D. Herridge. and Trade Commissioners scattered over the whole ct the United Mates, much ct the Canadian work falls to the lot of the British Consuls placed m the different centres. Our Trade Commissioner deals with matters of trade only and the many tangles over immigration regulations, liquor laws. ttc. are for the moat part solved by the Consul. it would seem that our Trade Commissioners should be giv- en the authority of consuls and their scope wculd then be enlarged to in- clude all Canadian-American disputes localized in their particular centre. I was given the opportunity ot ad- dressing a distinguished group of the citizens of Detroit. The women hw- yers ot that city entertained the Jud- ges. of whom all except one are men, at dinner at the Deurborn Inn, just opposite the Ford airport. Since it was suggested that I speak on any subject I wished, I thought it worth while to make use ot the opportunity offered to discuss present economic conditions and more particularly tin. ance and trade obstructions: They were a. delightful group of people, so generous and friendly: at the head table they had placed more Britishers than Americans and the Canadian thut was given as prominent aOplace as their own. The budget debate in am B- long until Tuesday. The Whip. hove agreed that the division will come on that day. As is tusual, the debate has been longer than we: anticipated but the debate on the budget provides an excellent opportunity for the mem. bers to discuss conditions in their constituency or some particular griev- ance that cannot be brought up at any other time. After the first few days the debate commands a slim House: the members who have made their speech con do nothing more in the House except listen until the vote takes place and many of them seize this opportunity to attend to work outside the Capital city, either personal or public.

He is young, energetic, sincere and intensely interested in his sub- ject: then too, the spoken word is al- Ways more revealing: it is alive, vital. The spirit of the speaker reach, " the bearer as it cannot the reader. Mr Hindus sketched the revolution [tom its beginning. The group of highly trained tacticians who had a plan fcr social reconstruction : the rasants with their great land-hung- er, were, the two determining factors in the revolution. In 1917 the peas- ants stized the land and the tactic- ians bigan to work their plan. During the revolution the landlords had been (linen out or killed " : almost no cnc was left on the land who could C'.' did. farm expertly. The quantity of agiicultural produce fell oft and the med for tcad in the cities increased. The Soviet gov't sought to meet this need by the taking of food stuffs and the creating of great collective farms and the peasant struck back by bury- ing his wheat in the ground, using as much cf his own product as he pos- sibly could and killing great quanti- sey Hall. I discharged my. duties as‘ chairman so badly that I wasted halt the tight thinking about " instead oti sleeping. Maurice Hindus is possibly! the greatest authority on Russia on: this continent. Born in a village ml the great plains of Russia, Hindus) came to U. States when a lad of ten.| He was educated in American schools graduating from Colgate College, and' afterwards took post graduate work " Harvard. He obtained his degree ct Doctor of Literature. It was nat- ural that the great revolution ot Rus- sia should interest him tremendous- ly: he has made 12 trips to Russia since the revolution and is now pre- paring to go again. He has approach- ed his study of that great country scientifically. He told his audience that he tried not to allow personal dusecmfort, which of course he had to suffer, to Intiuenee in any way his view ot the great experiment in soc- ial reconstruction. “it I could not get a hotel to sleep in, I slept in a barn, and it there was no barn, [slept on gcod mother earth, and it troub- led me not at all," said Mr Hindus.

House ot Com-Ions. subjected to a. gruelling examination. No really new matter was intro. duced in the budget debate this week. Mr G. G. Coote of Macleod. Alberta, It is now rumored that Parliament will adjourn in two weeks time. This is only made possible try the shelving or the Radio Commission's report and the report of the Royal Commission cn the railroads and transportation until the Fall session. It is thought that the 1933 session will meet for a month or two before Christmas, then carry on again after holiday is eves. I think a great deal is lost by mt acting cn the reports of commis- sions during the session in which they are brought down. The members at“ the (ammittee are "up on their toes' on the subjects they have been invcstigating: The House is soon made familiar with the subject by those who are experts and desirable uctitn seems to me more likely to result. Two other committees have hr: n sitt'ng steadily, the one investi- gating the conduct ot the three Sen- atcrs.W . L. McDougald, Andrew Hay- den and Donat Raymond in connec- ticn with the Beauharnois scandal. This (cmmittee has brought downa majority report in which it names these three Senators and says that their "aetlcng were not fitting or con- s'stent with their duties and stand- ing as Senators cf Canada." The other ccmmittee mentioned abovehas been examining into some of theap. pcintments made by the Civil Ser- busy Commission, and two of the ecmmitstn'cners particularly have been subjected to a gruelling examination do. of the stock.

In Mr Hindue' opinion the Russian revolution would have fol- lowed almost exactly in the steps of the French revolution it the peasants had become deeply rooted in their own land. The French peasant in one ct the most conservative’ men on (arth and he is a political farce which all French governments must rcrkcn with. The Russran peasant. according to the speaker, is becom- ing less- and less. rather than more and more, conservative. It is a. tme edy for the older people on the land who can never tit themselves into the new ways, but the young people like tho new method. The Russians are an undisciplined people: they dislike going to work at a certain time, stopping at a cer- tain time: they knew nothing 12 yrs ago about machines or machinery, ccnsequetly they have miehandled many of their tine machines and have been in many cases unable to oper- ate a factory after it was built and ready for operation. but year by year they are learning to do these things. They are throwing a territle amount ot energy and determination into the task: they are doing without agree? many things. Maurice Hindus does not believe that this generation of Rmsians will attain a comfortable standard of living, but he does be- lieve that their children and their children's children will. Orthodox re- ligion is dying cut, but the family, he said, was enduring and in the coun- try divorces were few though in the cities there were many, Thfs was the second lecture Mr Hindus has made in Toronto this year.
