ONTARIO ARCHIVEsS TORONTO NORTH EGREMONT DROMORE THE DURHAM REVIEW MAPLE | _ The Price Spreads and Mass Buyâ€" ing Committee, more commonly callâ€" ed â€"the Stevens Committee, heard | this week the startling story of the ‘ financial setâ€"up of the Robert Simpâ€" son Company Limited. It is fantasâ€" ,:uc enough to sound like somethin»> CC Emt AIEST L sues of shares were made, until in 1917 the outstanding capital consistâ€" ed of 33,500 preferred shares at a value of $3,350,000, with the same number of common shares At an eqâ€" ual value. Of these, 5,000 preferred and 26,000 common shares wars . i. D 1OO SI2CC _A IN€ Jast 2o years or even for the last 15 years I see more and more the tendency that the comâ€" " bined effort of all should assist the efforts of one. This is so whether we like it or not. I am no prophet, but I stand here tonight and say that | you cannot read the history of our Way back in 1898 the capital of the Company consisted of 1375 shares then acquired by the late H. H. Fudâ€" ger, Sir Joseph Flavelle and Mr A. E. $ qs e e n en en from the Arabian nights. A hundred dollars invested in this concern in 1902 had grown to three thousand dollars in stock dividends by 1929, plus $7550 and dividends of from 5% to 11% every year. L pool and to point out the great chanâ€" ges that had taken place in the world during and since the war, making a return to agricultural conditions of 1913 forever impossible, and remindâ€" ed the Liberals "you cannot maxe progress by standing still to watch the procession go by." Dealing with socialistic tendencies, the _ Prime Minister has this to say : "As I read the history of the huâ€" man race for the last 25 years or \ _ _The Prime Minister made a partio ularly able and forward looking speech just before the vote was taken on the Marketing Bill, which soundâ€" ed about as different from his speeâ€" ches of a few years ago as anything could. However I am thankful for. its belated excellence. :n the middie of the 19th century, when British reformers were seeking to secure leâ€" gislative action to reduce the nours | of labour, abolish child labour and ;lncrease the return to the worker, | they were strenuously opposed by the !ladssez'ture advocates of that gay, | sa‘d the Prime Minister. Now, wnen effort is being made to win for the | agriculturalist, return for his labour through orderly and controlled marâ€" keting, believers in the same doctrine (every man for himself and the devil take the hindâ€"most) oppose the bill. The remarks made by the Prime Minister on farm organization are interesting. "Can agriculture organâ€" ize? Yesterday and togay tne veterâ€" _an former Minister of Agricuiture, _ Mr Motherwell, gave the iong story of the efforts of agricuiture towards ’organ’zation. He told the story of the granges and the patrons or inâ€" dustry, he told of the struggie for _organization on the par; or agriculitâ€" ure and of the failures brought about by certain circumstances. I realize that their position is not that of trade unionists; they have not the voice which trade unions have to make themselves effective in the constituencies in order that laissezâ€" faire may not prevail against them. The time has come when the natural products of this country shall be marketted under conditions. which will ensure to those who produce them some measure of return for their efforts, a measure of return reâ€" lative to that which the trade unions have been able to secure ny organiâ€" zation for those whom they repreâ€" sent." Which is not enough in eithâ€" er case, but we could hardly expect the Prime Minister to say> that. Mr Bennett went on to praise the | the House, among them Tom Reid, M.P. in the kilt, who piped Mr Hepâ€" | burn onto the platform at the Audiâ€" l At last the Marketing Bill is carâ€" ried, on a vote of 85 to 35. The small | number of those opposing is account: | ed for by the fact that the big HKepâ€" â€"burn meeting was in progress at the same time, which attracted large | numbers of Liberal members from It is difficult to understand the vicious opposition of the Liberals to this bill, since any community of farâ€" mers need not make use of it uniess they wish.
