It is quite evident that the public as a whole are concerned over the necesâ€" sity of Home Guards and that the Government will have to push â€" its plans for these in order to keep aâ€" breast of public opinion. In addition many complaints come in about deâ€" Thursday and Friday were taken up with the unemployment relief, of which I shall. give a more detailed report later on when the Bill actualâ€" iy is introduced. In addition certain estimates of the Agricultural Departâ€" ment and of the Health Department were passed. We find we are on the Miscellaneous Private Bills and the Agriculture committees of the House. ed, under the Defence of Canada Regulations, that the Governmentf had declared illegal, certain political. and social organizations, in the main | those that Dr. Bruce had referred to | a week ago. | _ Mr McLarty introduced the Unâ€" employment ® and Agricultural Relief Resolution, and it amazes me how much time the Members take up, criticizing a measure that they have not seen, and which they al; agree with in prirciple. For exâ€" ample: no one has yet said that he is opposed to unemployment insurâ€" ance, but about a dozen speakers| have spoken on the Resolution and have spent the time of the House discussing the unfortunate condition in which the unemployed find thenâ€" gelves, with the net result that time | has been wasted in getting on witn. the Resolution in order to bring the relief which every Member says he thinks should be given. Mr. Gilâ€"| lis, (C.C.F. for Nova Scotia) rather| impressed the House on the condi-’ lion of the mine workers. © Wednesday was particularly interâ€" esting in that Mr Lapointe announcâ€" | _ _On Tuesday we got along with more estimates, and we had a lengâ€" thy statement from the Prime Minâ€" ister as to the War situation. Apâ€" parently the government some two weeks ago made certain â€" decisions about assisting in the defence of Great Britain, and it is also apparâ€" ent from the statement, that we must must now â€" actively undertake the major share of our own air training, and perhaps the whole of our â€" manufacture of aeropl:mes.‘ There was one small remark of the: Prime Minister which was si-gz‘lific-' ant, and that is, that certain bombâ€" ing machines which were on the| way to Canada and which were ordâ€" ered returned, had been ordered b.v|l this Government in April, 1939â€"that| is, four months before the War broke! out. It shows that Great Britain‘s industrial production is such thatl only after the passing of thirteenl months were these machines being delivered. | j Some of the questions asked and answered â€" dealt with as different subjects as Bren Guns and table ‘potatoes imported from the United States. The Social Credit group inâ€" troduced. a Bill to incorporate the | Alberta Provincial Bank, which is ‘Mr Aberhart‘s next move to advance Social Credit. The object will be that the Cabinet of Alberta should be the sole shareholders and officers, with sole power to say to whom loans are to be made, and upon what terms. I understand that there is a "Joker" which provides that there will be no intersst on the loans made by the bank, in accordance with the Social Credit theory that interest should not be charged. When the Bill is reached I have no doubt there will be many interesting arguâ€" ments, unless the Government deâ€" cides to let it go through to see what can be done in Alberta, on the: theory, I suppose, that the Province can d@ as it likes about loaning money, as long ‘as the Dominion is‘ not involved. j as to the whole policy of the Departâ€" ment concerned. Eventually we reached the Bill to amend the Agriâ€" cultural Products Coâ€"Operative Marâ€" keting Act, which is intended to enâ€" able the Minister to enter into aâ€" greements with coâ€"operative associaâ€" tions to authorize maximum costs to be fixed in the agreement, and to give the Minister more power with respect to the fixing of prices.
