Instead of renewing the 68 million dollar loan in New York a few weeks ago, the Canadian government could have bought New York exchange to the extent of 60 million and paid off the loan. I think that would have brought the Canadian dollar down to a point near the level of the British pound, but if it did not then the government could buy a few more Canadian bonds that are payable in New York funds. This gov‘t has some bonds payable there. There would be no trouble whatever in bringing parity about in that way. | the pound was brought to par in that country, the same as Sweden and Plphnd and other countries have done. First of all we should abandon frankly, honestly, fairly and openly, the gold standard. So far the Prime Minister has refused to do that. Then Tarmers are to take advantage of the markets which are provided for them, they should be given a chance to compete. It seems to me that if we Aare to give them that chance we must bring back the British pound to parity in Canada, that is, it must be worth $4.86 23. Fortunately such action could be taken wthout upsetâ€" ting or altering our agreement with Britain: it could be done by this government any time they took the notion to 4o it." At this juncture a member asked how it could be 9 Gov‘t Voted Down Amendment to Establish Tin be m Unark a00 stece " i wes m“a o a c‘ the first time I have been given an Canadian Dollar on Parity with British Ponnd »»ro=s ot actressine a convenâ€" Canada, thus giving the Danish exâ€" porter an advantage over us, and coming to the conditions of toâ€"day, Mr Coote said: "I believe that if our tween Canada and Gt.

On the previous day Mr Coote moved an amendment "And subject also to the establishment of the Canadian dollar with the British pound." Mr Coote asked the Government how it could expect the Canadian farmer to secure his share of the British bacon market or the British wheat market when the British pound was worth only $3.65 in Canada but worth $4.8%7 to our competitors in Denmark: $6.10 to the Australian farmer and $5.30 to Mr Coote made an interesting obâ€" servation regarding the capturing of the British bacon market by the Danes: he stated that when Denmark elbowed us out of the British marâ€" ket for bacon some years ago, the British pound sterling was at that The vote on the trade T OTAL ASS$ETS IN EXCESS OF $.2.0.0, 0 0 0 . 0 0 0 BANK OF MONTREAL Closely Identified with the Jinancial Sife of Canada for115 Years Miss Macphbail‘s Weekly Letter On account of its large resources, its national, provincial and local organizations, the Bank of Montreal is always in a position to dis» cuss banking requirements and .is always glad to do so.

The engagement _ â€"Eve was made mary weeks ago when and The 1st of November being All Saints Day, was a holiday in the Commons, so I accepted an invitaâ€" tion by the students of University College, Uriversity of Toronto, to adâ€" dress their literary society on the subject "If I were Prime Minister." May I hasten to add that the underâ€" graduates submitted the subject. I enjoyed the experience very muchâ€" not the experience of imagining myâ€" self prime minister, but the opporâ€" tunity of meeting the undergraduates in such an informal and friendly manâ€" ner. Undoubtedly the undergraduates are keenly interested in presentâ€"day problems. Among those taking part in the discussion were MrStewart. son of the Minister of Public Works and Mr Lay, nephew of Rt Hon. Macâ€" kenzie King. At the home of one of | the students, we afterwards haa tlf:e1 opportunity of meeting the debating team from the British Universities,| The general view is that some good and some evil are contained in the treaties and that the market is pracâ€" tically useless to Canadian farmers until the exchange situation is rightâ€" ed: only time will demonstrate wheâ€" ther the gocd outweighs the evil or the evil outweighs the good. The main vote on the treaties was dumping duty submitted by Burton supported by the government and bY . ryeiq in the Flesherton Advance, six farm members Kennedy, Spe@kâ€" of Nov. 2nd.

The Currency Act of Canada could be amended by statâ€" ing that the pound sterling is legal tender in Canada for $4.86 23. There would be no difficulty about that. I have no doubt the Prime Minister knows how it could be done, if only he could be persuaded to act." The vote which followed was sigâ€" nificant. It indicated clearly the proâ€" gress monetary reform is making in the House. Mr Coote was supported by the Farmerâ€"Labour groups and the Liberal party with the one exâ€" ception of Mr W. H Moore, Liberal member for Ontario Co.. who :s wedâ€" ded to the gold standard.
