Mr Justice Turgeon headed the Commisâ€" sion, It took in a very wide field, exâ€" amining a hundred companies, their financial affairs and operating methâ€" ods. The probe covered the rayon, cotton and woollen industries. The report, which is naturally voluminous was tabled at the end of the week. Strong ground was taken in regard to "secret reserves" which a number of companies had piled up. It was not so much that there were reserves but that they were secret, making the financial statements of such companâ€" ies seem what they were not. That is when companies approach the government for more protection (they never approach it for less), their figâ€" ures should be wholly reliable If this is not so, the government and the people are asked to give special priâ€" vilege where it may neither be reâ€" quired nor deserved. Commissioner Turgeon condemned also "watered" stocks. "In some caâ€" ses these companies have succeeded in spite of the inflation (waterea stock) in making profits out of their operations. This would tend to snow that in those instances they could, on a proper capitalization, have prosperâ€" ed with less tariff protection than they received and that the consumer had been called upon to pay more than ought fairly to have been asked of him, In other cases, the companâ€" ies have come to grief and the loss has been borne by those who investâ€" ed their money on the faith of a capâ€" In the report, Mr Justice Turgeon emphasized the responsibility of an industry which enjoys tariff protecâ€" tion. It should, ha said, demonstrate that its value to the community is equal to the sacrifice made by the community (by way of tariffs). Finâ€" ancially, the report states, the texâ€" tile industry has fared well. It emerâ€" ged from the depression in a condiâ€" tion that other industries might welj envy. (One Montreal company made nearly a hundred per cent. yearly upon the original investment.) Yet, the hours of labour are comparable to those of labour in the Orient. n u'h."'m a protected industry should b¢ mer, Mr. King was reported to have h‘WWbmuflmflf““uymww woula punomaes the interests of the community. !mc‘.“‘mh, side."

"There is no question in my mind," he said, "that farmers have been defrauded, cerâ€" tainly unjustly deprived of millions of | dollars annually which they should be | getting. I am prepared to prove that ‘and some day I will." In connection with the movement of live stock from the prairies to Onâ€" tario, with the consequent glut of ine market with finished stock, the Minâ€" ister of Agriculture said that space on ocean vessels had been provided this year for from 40 to 50 thousand cattle bound for the British market. More cattle could be shipped, he said if more space were available. Parliament is very much concerned over the indefiniteness of Canada‘s foreign policy, There is a general desire to know what is in the Prim: Minister‘s mind. Many are asking themselves the question which M. J. Coldwell, C. C. F. member. put to the House: ‘"In the event of another wa. and of Great Britain becoming involâ€" ved, will Canada automatically be involved ? Furthermore, what are the exact relations of this country to British Imperial policy ?" But for the reply, we must wait until after the Easter recess. The Prime Minister stated that he had been trying to have an item of the Department of External Affairs introduced all sesâ€" sion, so that on it he could make a statement on foreign policy, but such opportunity had been denied him. Mr. Bennett elaborately reviewed the economic indications leading to the last depreswion, emphasizing the unbalance of tradeâ€"exports decreasâ€" ing and imports increasing. Bringing it up to date, he said "If the student of affairs is concerned to look for analogies . . the figures show that last month our exports to the United States fell from $36,000,000 to $17000â€" 000, as compared with the preceding month. ‘That is a significant fact and it marks exactly what took place in 1929 and 1930. Today our exports are diminishing and our imports inâ€" have the matter off my mind before the Easter vacation, but I am afraid that will be impossible now." And I creasing." He continued, at some length, to recommend emergency tarâ€" iffs as a remedy, which found little sympathy in the House. would be brought together again in _the preservation of it. Ottawa, Saturday, April 2, 1938. JOHN 1. GRAMAM, VANDELEUR, DIED ON FRIDAY A widelyknown and highly esteemâ€" ed Artemesia farmer, John I. Graham of Vandeleur, passed away on April 1st in his 85th year, after less than two daughters survive, three of them being Howard of Vandeleur also weli known throughout South Grey, Wilâ€" fred and David of Kimberley.

For over 40 years he was secretaryâ€"treasurer of the Farmers‘ Institute and previous to that secretary of the Grange, an early organization among farmers for their mutual benefit. He was for many years Supt. of Vandeleur Unitâ€" ed Sunday School. and a member of the official board.
