No one who has done anvt*‘ ishonorable, can be elect~" _u nominated in the Old Co _.y. â€" We too frequently hear the expression "Politics are rotâ€" ten"â€"if so, who is to blame? Politics are just what we make them, good or bad. We have left matters often to a few in both parties, who selfishly manipulate affairs and try to throw a smoke screen over some dishonest deal. Women can demand and secure honor in politics by becoming familâ€" ilar with our laws and legislation. Laborâ€"saving equipment in the home now gives woman more time to interâ€" est herself in affairs outside. We need more women of education, clear minds and balanced judgment in Parâ€" liament. Many women have succeeded in business life. DURKHAM, ONT. Telephone 6 C. RAMAGE & SON, Editor and Proâ€" prieiors. NATIONAL FEDERATION OF LIBERAL WOMEN Thinking people toâ€"day are much concerned about conditions in our country. The serious question is, are the women interested in and studying the political situation? They hold the balance of power at election time. For 125 years, the women of England have studied politics thoroughlyâ€"the What is the motive power of Lib eralism? Liberalism stands for (a) Inâ€" dividual liberty. (b) Collective prosâ€" perity. (3) Racial and religious harâ€" mony. (4) Growth of nationhood. (5) No privileges: justice for all. This, if studied and followed, is broad eâ€" nough to force back fear and greed. Women of Ontario, if you have not an educational study of our politics WHERE DONALDS AND McDONâ€" ALDS ARE PLENTIFUL We read an interesting article latâ€" ely on the great clan "McDonald." They are as numerous, we think, as they ever were, and particularly in Huron Township, where on one 0câ€" casion, two Donald McDonalds were In speaking of the dry humor of the Highland pioneer settlers, a cerâ€" tain Donald McDonald came into the wagon shop of J. B. McArthur, a piâ€" oneer business man of Paisley to buy a wagon. As payments of accounts in those carly days were not made until winter time. McArthur wanted to know the post office address and othâ€" er particulars of this Donald McDonâ€" ald, who lived in a McDonald settleâ€" ment so that he could have a record of it when the payment date came round. The following dialogue is reâ€" ported to have taken place: Mr McArthurâ€"What is your name? Answarâ€"Tonald . "Yes, I know that," said McArthur, "but what is your other name?" "Tother Tonald." ‘"Where do you Mvye?" was the next question and the answer came back quick as a flash, "Among the rest." McArthur then said "You must give me your exact location." By this time the old Highlander had become quite indignant and he replied : ‘"Well, since you are so mighty particular where I live, it is on the tenth conâ€"sideroad of Pruce, lot fufteen." elected to the council of Huron Tp. One went as Reeve and the other as Councillior, both receiving exactly the same vote. To distingush these two families of Donald McDonald‘s, the Reeve‘s family were nicknamed "Dorâ€" rie." that clocks run faster at night than in daytime. Most of us no doubt, have often thought the same thing. Then there were the Yorrie and the Sly McDonald‘s. we have had but one month of real winter this year. February is a short month too. _ As for March, Durham usually has but one threeâ€"dayâ€"storm at some time in that month and fine weather during the rest of it. A New York business man, it is said, has this sign on the door for the benefit of his callers: "Be brief.

Collingwood Reade, a student of economy and financial writer for Toâ€" ronto Saturday Night, emphatically denounced present day government policies to relieve the depression and advocated inflation of Canada‘s curâ€" rency, while Miss Macphail also exâ€" plained the origin, ideals and plans of Canada‘s new party, the C. C.F. of which she is one of the leaders. F. R. Oliver, M. P. P., was opening speaker and his main message was the necessity of zbrlngtnq Canada‘s pound. The U. S. A. with its high tarift walls had forced Canada to find in Britain her best market, but m trading with Britain, Canada was ¢â€" normously hamlicapped owing to our money beng valued 30 per cent highâ€" er than Britain‘s. Britain has inâ€" flated its currency, and our three great competitors on the British marâ€" kct, Denmark, Australia and Argenâ€" tine, have inflated theirs, thus they can sell stock and goods for less than Canada in Britain and can take more money home with them, Australla is now in better shape than Canada. We must allow our money to de preciate to the level of Britain‘s and increase the price of our products on the world‘s markets. â€" It would raise the farmer‘s prices 20 to 25 per cent, increasing their purchasing power and thus aid all other industry. At present in buying from Great Britain, Canadians have added to buying price, duties, sales tax, excise tax and exchange duty, thus an artiâ€" cle is doubled in price by the time it reaches the consumer. Speaking on "The present Econoâ€" mic situation", J. Collingwood Reade statedl that depressed economic conâ€" ditions of toâ€"day are not a recurrence of the usual cycle, but the end of an era. â€" The present economic period came definitely to an end in 1914. The war industrialized America. The foreign capital market is dead. The last economic eraâ€"that of equipment, Mayor \il_.v I-f T(iess occupied the char, his first in a public capacity locally outside of the council and neatly had come to a close ; we now have more capacity in many lines, such as railways, paper mills wheat, etc than we can profitably employ.

She with other speakers, was giving her time and efforts freely to enlighten the people regarding economic condiâ€" tinn@ as there was no one else doâ€" pen. This is why we believe in conâ€" trolled inflation: large sums must be put in circulation that prices of goods may rise. There are now three price levelsâ€"debt level highest of all, then price of things the farmer must pay for and lowest level is things the farâ€" mer sells. The only way farmers can pay is by sale of their commodities. We should issue large sums of monâ€" ey without interest through a Central Bank (which we have not.) Our eriâ€" sis is largely a monetary oneâ€"we‘ve more than enough of everything; no lack of goods but we lack a sufficient quantity of money. Premier Bennett will yet eat his words and regret that he said "we‘ll stay by sound money." It‘s time people woke up and learned that the people made all the money there is. Money issued first time flowing into street and she felt sOrTY io think prejudice kept many from should be without interest save A fraction per cent service charge and right to issue should be taken from banks back into people‘s hands. Second thing to get away on us is the machine. In last 20 years we‘ve grown from bigger to biggerâ€"we‘ve mastered art of production of goods to almost any amount. Machines are not now laborâ€"saving but laborâ€"disâ€" placing. â€" We can produce far more sorb with our present standard of living. We‘re at the end of the proâ€" duction problemâ€"it‘s solved. Now the whole economy must be how to increase the consumption of goods we can so rapidly produce. There‘s no place to invest capital in production to make it a safe inâ€" vestment. If you had a million do!â€" lars today, would you invest it in farms, No! would you in some indusâ€" rial enterprize? Unlikely! You would not know what to do with it We‘ve got to plan our national life to enabâ€" le the masses to buy all the . goods they need, Years ago hard work and thrift were two great virtues, now farmers are practicing both from necessity. But hard work and thrift will never But hard work and thrift will never take us out of the depression in 1933, for by everyone Adoing such, we would produce more than ever and consume or use less, and only aggravate our condition. The premier and Beatty should go to kindergarten when they advocate this as a remedy. The Federal Gov‘t was now levying taxation where hardest to get money. They should transfer the burden of taxes from the backs of the masses, and load it on accumulated capital. A geod deal more revenue would be derived and the masses would have more to spend for goods. She fully believed the 25 indepenâ€" dent members in southâ€"east corner of House of Commons were worth' mare to the country than any other 25.
