[Stage Direction]
Hon. CHARLES A. STEWART (Minister of the Interior) moved for leave to introduce Bill No. 112, to amend the Irrigation Act.
Mr. MEIGHEN:: Explain, please.


Mr. STEWART:: This bill is for the purpose of making a slight amendment to make it clear that there shall be no conflict as between the rights of lease holders for mining purposes and the provisions of the Irrigation Act as they apply to streams, lakes or even sloughs. Some difficulty has arisen with respect to the claims of parties holding leases having the right to mine under existing water courses, lakes and sloughs, and this amendment is for the purpose of clearing the matter up.
Motion agreed to and bill read the first time.

There is no provision in the said act casting upon the government or any department thereof the duty of enforcing the clauses referred to.


DUTY AND DRAWBACK ON STEEL, COAL AND WOOLLEN IMPORTATIONS
Mr. BANCROFT:: 1. For the last fiscal year, what was the amount of duty paid on steel, coal and woollen goods, and what drawback was repaid on steel, coal and wollen goods, imported by: (a) International Harvester Company; (b) Ford Motor Company; and (c) Massey-Harris Company?
9 2. What other drawbacks, if any, were allowed these companies?


Jacques Bureau: I do not think this question ought to be answered as it appears on the order paper, for the reason that the answer would disclose the private business of the firms that are mentioned. The question calls for the importations made by the Massey-Harris Company, the Ford Motor Company, and the International Harvester Company, and the drawback paid. It has

French Treaty
always been deemed advisable to keep information of this kind within the department. If my hon. friend wants any particular information, I shall be willing to give it to him at the department for himself, but I do not think it would be advisable to answer publicly the question in the form in which it is.
Question dropped.
LABRADOR GOLD RUSH On the Orders of the Day:


Mr. GAUVREAU:: I would like to
ask the government a question on what I believe to be a matter of public interest. In view of the fact that a rush will be made this spring to the Labrador coast by many thousands who are attracted by the gold fever, and in view also of the fact that the money of the people is pouring into the poekets of gold schemers in this country, does not the government think that a statement should be given to the public at large by the Department of Mines as to the possibilities of finding gold in Labrador? A true statement by the Department of Mines would be a safeguard for many people who * are blinded at the present time by companies desirous of gathering money for their schemes


Charles A. Stewart: I can
scarcely answer the hon. gentleman's question, but I may say that the department has taken this precaution: We have at the moment an inquiry in progress to get as far as possible any information that may be available with respect to the reported discovery of gold in the area referred to. The report of that investigation is not yet in my possession but I expect to receive it within a short time.


WEDNESDAY EVENING SITTINGS
[Stage Direction]
On the Orders of the Day:
Charles Arthur Gauvreau: Is it the intention of the Prime Minister that the House shall sit on Wednesday evening commencing next week?


William Lyon Mackenzie King: I think there is a disposition on the part of a number of members of the House to have Wednesday evenings retained for a little time longer. The government had not thought it advisable to sit next Wednesday evening. However, as to the time of resuming the Wednesday evening sittings the government will be pleased to consider the general wishes of the House as they may be represented to us.


CLOSING OF BRANT HOSPITAL
[Stage Direction]
On the Orders of the Day:
Robert King Anderson: I would like to
ask the Minister of Soldiers' Civil Reestablishment if the article appearing in the Hamilton press intimating that the Brant military hospital is to be closed in July next is correct?


Henri Sévérin Béland: This question, Mr. Speaker, is now under consideration, but no definite decision has, as yet, been arrived at.


FRENCH TREATY
[Stage Direction]
The House resumed from Wednesday, April 18, the debate on the motion of Hon. Mr. Fielding for the second reading of Bill No. 23, respecting a certain Convention of Commerce between His Majesty and the French Republic.
Hon. W. S. FIELDING (Minister of Finance):: Mr. Speaker, in the few remarks which I made on this motion last evening I pointed out that the only logical conclusion to the criticism offered by my hon. friend from Lincoln (Mr. Chaplin) must be, first, that this treaty is a very foolish one, and furthermore, that in view of the inconsiderable volume of trade with France it is not worth our while to make a treaty at all. I think I was not mistaken-


Mr. CHAPLIN :: May I be allowed to say to the minister that I do not want the impression to go abroad that I am not in favour of a treaty with France. On the contrary, I am in favour of a treaty provided it is a fair one.


William Stevens Fielding: The hon. member will have the opportunity of recording his vote against this motion and I hope he will remember that when the division comes. Let me say, though, that if I have the misfortune to run counter to the views of my hon. friend in this matter I can comfort myself with the thought that in endeavouring to make an arrangement for trade relations with France I am'but following the example of the distinguished public men of this country for the last forty years. Though I have, with great reluctance, to differ with my hon. friend from Lincoln, I comfort myself with that thought.
I pointed out last evening the importance of recognizing the difference between the French fiscal policy and the fiscal policy of Canada. My hon. friend again and again
French Treaty

quotes cases in regard to which he says "The duty which France imposes is high and the duty which Canada imposes is low," and on the assumption that that is wrong he denounces the present treaty. Now, it is utterly impossible to conduct treaty negotiations with France upon any such basis. My hon. friend's argument, again and again, is this: He quotes some item in which the duty in France is high and the duty in Canada is moderately low, and he triumphantly asks "Is that a fair treaty?" I want to remind my hon. friend that under the existing condition of affairs he has himself voted for a treaty which controls the present relations between Canada and France, and if he will examine that treaty he will find that there are frequent cases where the duties which we impose in Canada are very much lower than the duties which are imposed on the other side * of the Atlantic. So that this idea of reciprocity in duties which the hon. gentleman had in his mind, and on which he bases much of his argument, is utterly "untenable; it is not tenable as respects our present condition, it cannot be tenable as respects the future.
Let me take one single item, which he mentioned himself in his speech, that of automobiles. Our rates of duty are 22-1- per cent under the preferential tariff, 30 per cent under the intermediate tariff, and 35 per cent under the general tariff. According to my hon. friend's contention that must be the same condition in France. We must have the same rates as in France otherwise he would not support the treaty, otherwise he would say "How can this be a treaty at all when the rates are so unequal?" Surely the rates granted in France were the same, were they not, before my hon. friend consented to vote for that treaty?


James Dew Chaplin: I would just point out to the hon. minister that I was not here when the other treaty was made, and following the continuance of that treaty my understanding of the matter was that there was to be a new' convention by wduch some of these anomalies would be corrected.


William Stevens Fielding: If the hon. gentleman
says he w'as not present on the occasion referred to I must accept his statement. My impression was that he was here when the new treaty was adopted. I accept my hon. friend's statement. At all events the treaty was made by the government that he supported. Although he may not have voted for that treaty himself the party which he supports made and supported it. But let me give an illustration, and I can give it in a minute.

We admit automobiles into Canada to-day at the rate of 35 per cent, and If a Canadian automobile goes into France the duty is- these duties are specific but by converting this into an ad valorem duty it is approximately ISO per cent. That is the condition existing to-day under an arrangement made by the government of which he was a supporter even if he did not himself vote for it. My. hon. friend surely cannot realize the utter impossibility of doing what he asks us to do and that is ask the French government to fix the same rates as we have in Canada. I could give the same illustration for many other items but that one is sufficient for the purpose.


James Dew Chaplin: The minister succeeded
in getting that duty, under this treaty reduced to 45 per cent. Why not have had a little further reduction, if he could accomplish that much.


Hewitt Bostock: The hon. gentleman is
entitled to put a question, with the consent of the member speaking, but he cannot indulge in discussion.


William Stevens Fielding: I do not object to my .
hon. friend's interruption. There are many other cases to which I could apply the same illustration. However, my point is this: The argument advanced by the hon. gentleman, that because the duties imposed in France were higher than the duties we imposed in Canada the treaty is unfair, is utterly unworthy of him and should not have been used. If my hon. friend will apply the same test to other classes of articles to which he referred he will find that the existing order of things is entirely against his own argument.
Now, I do not want to dwell too much on details of that nature. My hon. friend has quoted repeatedly the high duties that are imposed on articles in France and he asks with an air of triumph "Can we expect to do any business under these terms?" Well,
I frankly admit that when we are doing business with any protectionist country the restrictions on trade operate to our disadvantage. I grant at once that we are not likely to do as much business with France under the present treaty, under the existing arrangement, or under the new treaty, as we could if France had a moderate tariff. But is that a reason why we should not endeavour to do what we can. We cannot undertake to change the whole fiscal policy of France; we must do business with France on the basis that she has that protective system, that her duties are high. But surely because we cannot do all

French Treaty
the business with France that we would like is no reason why we should not endeavour to do whatever is possible. What concerns us most is to see that we get the best terms that are offered to others. I suggested that yesterday but I want to repeat it again. I realize that under the high duties of France wre cannot expect to do a very great trade, but certainly we will do less trade if we are placed at a disadvantage as compared with foreign countries. Our great competitor in Europe is, and will naturally be, our neighbour to the south, the American republic, and if we cannot get low duties in France surely it is worth our while to see that nobody else gets any better treatment than we do. That was one of the vital points of our object in going to Europe and that point, as I shall show further on, we have fully accomplished. The United States now has some advantage over us. I will take occasion to refer to that later. Our object in this treaty has been to terminate these disadvantages under which we suffer, to get the best terms that are now available, and to get a guarantee that in the years to come the United States shall get no greater advantages than are given to Canada. Is this not a worthy object?
My hon. friend made a passing allusion to a question of perhaps local importance to him, the duty on wines. He points out that under this treaty we are reducing the duty on wine. That is absolutely correct. We did so before. You could not make a treaty with France unless you were prepared to make some concessions in the matter of wines; but the hon. member talked of the Canadian wines and the duty imposed upon them. That is a different question. I stated in the first stage of the discussion of this measure that the duty set forth in the treaty with France might necessitate some readjustment of other duties, and I still stand by that statement, but we are not called upon to deal with that to-day. We are dealing entirely with the duties imposed on goods from France, and the taxes we shall impose on commodities made in Canada or any goods imported from other countries into Canada is another question, which we are not called upon to deal with at this moment.
My hon. friend for Lincoln said we should have had in a larger degree the French minimum tariff. I agree with him that that was desirable. It would have been a good thing if we could have had the whole minimum tariff and not have had to resort to the schedules at all, but we cannot get that minimum tariff from France. France will not grant the whole minimum tariff to any country. She uses her tariff as the instrument for commercial negotiations. Since we cannot get the whole minimum tariff, what should we do? Should we endeavour to get as much as possible, or should we let the whole matter alone and say that it is not worth trying to get? Our view is to get as much of it as we can, and if we have some articles mentioned in the list that are of no great importance, putting it at the lowest point of argument, what harm can come to any Canadian if we put in some articles which we do not export?
The hon. member spent a great deal of his time in dealing with the character of our exports. He mentions a number of things we do not export. He says there are certain articles which we'export to other countries, which we do not export to France, and why bother with France at all? That is his argument. Well, it might strike most of us to look at it the other way. If there are articles which to-day we are exporting to other countries, there seems to be a fair chance that we might export them to France. That looks logical and reasonable, and we are desirous of the opportunity of exporting them to France. In the second part of my hon. friend's argument he read page after page, for hour after hour, of a long list of items which we do not export. He tells us of some things which he knows about personally. He says "We do not send these "Things to France" and therefore the inference is: Why bother about them at all? According to his argument, the proper preparation for a treaty would have been that we should have looked at the articles that Canada is exporting, and we should have said that if we provided for these, that was all that was necessary. That was not our notion. I am glad to tell my hon. friend that we proceeded along a different line. We thought it would be wise to ascertain by inquiry, not only what we are exporting, but what we might hope to export if the trade came to us. We were making a treaty not for today alone. True it is terminable on short notice, but we hope it will last a long time, and so we are putting in a list of articles which we might possibly export in the future. He speaks of many things with scorn and derision. He spent a large part of his timife mentioning certain articles, and getting the laughter of his friends, and saying "We do not export a dollar's worth of that particular article." I do not think that was a sound argument. It might afford as much amusement to the friends of the hon. member -when I tell him that some of the very articles he spoke of with scorn and derision were put in that list at
French Treaty

the request of the Manufacturers' Association, of which he is a member. My hon. friend was content with a small, narrow vision. If we are not exporting a thing today, we never will export it-that is his method of argument. That does not suit us on this side of the House. If he has the idea that the manufacturers of Canada are standing still and are not expanding, we differ from him. We think the manufactures are expanding to-day. We think they are making many things to-day they did not make before, and there are many things turers are expanding to-day. We think they will make in the near future. At any rate we think we are right in trying to open the doors of the French market to these articles. However, if our anticipations and' expectations are too great in this regard, what harm is done by putting them in the list? Surely it is our duty to provide, not only for the things we are exporting to-day, but for the things we hope to export in the future, having regard to Canada's expanding manufacturing industries.
My hon. friend made merry for a long time when dealing with the articles we were not capable of exporting. I have already stated that some of the things were put in the list at the instance of the great association of which he is a member, but I think I will have to get a little closer to show how rash he is in his efforts to find fault with this bill. I know in his heart he believes in this treaty. He must approve of it in regard to the business with which his own community is connected, but he has allowed himself, for party purposes, I regret to say, to be carried to extremes. He referred to the articles that are mentioned in this long list-this padding as he calls it -and he says " I cannot imagine why on earth bronze powder should be put down in the treaty with France, when we never made the article and have imported it. I have used it in my business for forty years and we have never bought any in this country. Nevertheless, it is put in on this list." That is one of our crimes. We put in this list, as a possible thing which may be made in Canada, the article of bronze powder, and my hon. friend laughs us to scorn because we did so. I will give him an answer to that statement. Here is a telegram, addressed to myself, dated, Montreal, April 19th, which reads:
Eronze powders have been made continuously in Valleyfield since you were there in 1906 on tariff inquiry. Our business increased with France in consequence of French treaty, and since opening office there, exporting 80 per cent of our product to foreign countries and increasing our capacity.
fMr. Fielding.!
That is signed by R. E. Thorne, president of the Canadian Bronze Powder Works, Limited. I think my hon. friend would have been wiser if he had given a more -thoughtful study to these matters before he made the rash statement which he did make. Only one day has elapsed since my hon. friend made his speech and this telegram reached me this morning, but I suppose others who have heard the criticism may be moved to say "We are not accepting his views, but we are going to give a chance to the Canadian manufacturer to make the things which we are not making to-day but which we may make in the near future


James Dew Chaplin: May I ask a question?


William Stevens Fielding: Yes.


James Dew Chaplin: Would the hon. minister say, if bronze powder has been exported, why it is left out of both the customs and export returns?


William Stevens Fielding: The export returns have not been prepared by me, but have been prepared by the government which the hon. member supported. If he has any criticism to offer on that score, I would remind him that the last public returns produced were made under the direction of my predecessor, and I am not going to find any fault with them. I suppose they did what they thought to be best. My hon. friend spent so much time in dealing with those goods which are of no importance that he forgot'the larger question which he might have taken up. I will put the question to him. What odds, if all these things which he calls padding are put into the treaty? In this case we show him why, and in many other cases we can show the reason. But suppose he is right, suppose we not only do not export but cannot export, will you tell me what harm comes from putting them in the treaty so that if our manufactures develop we will have the opportunity of exporting them. What harm comes from it?
I want to put a better question that he might have put. He might have asked us why we have not inserted this, that, or the other item in the treaty. If my hon. friend can show that one single item of importance to the export trade of Canada, an item that we are exporting to-day or have a fair chance of exporting, is not covered by this treaty; if he could ask me that question and I was not able to answer it, then I would admit that we were open to criticism. This treaty may err in the matter of covering too much ground; but I state with confidence that there


French Treaty
is not an item that Canada is exporting today or has hope of exporting in the early future, that is not covered by this treaty. If it is covered and if we get the best possible terms as compared with our neighbours in the United States, why should we complain of that?
My hon. friend asked some questions. He said: "We are to hhve no advantages over the present treaty. What have we that we did not have before? We have everything now without the treaty. Why then," he argues, "make a treaty, if things are as they are?" The leader of the Opposition (Mr. Meighen), in his speech delivered in this city yesterday evening, according to a report in the press, fell into the same fallacy. He said: "Mr. Fielding took over to France a better French treaty than the one he brought back."


Arthur Meighen: A better French tariff.


William Stevens Fielding: I beg pardon. A better French tariff. That is to say, better rates as applied to Canadian produce than we have to-day. In a few cases that is correct.


Arthur Meighen: In virtually all that count.


William Stevens Fielding: My right hon. friend has overlooked a very important thing. He speaks of the tariff that I took over, meaning the present rates. My right hon. friend, like his friend for Lincoln, forgeta that these are dead or under sentence of death, because notice has been given by France that these rates are no longer to apply. He assumes that these rates are going to continue. He should have remembered that the French government long ago gave notice that they were not prepared to continue these rates. They denounced their treaties in all quarters, and they increased their tariffs as it was their right to do. We are, therefore, not justified in making comparisons to-day between the present rates and the rates that are going to be put into effect, except in a distant way. The great question to-day is not a choice between the duties set forth in this treaty and the duties we have to-day; it is a choice between the duties set forth in this treaty and the duties of the French general tariff which are very high duties. If this treaty fails, then we fall under the French general tariff which is a very high one. It is more important to Canada to-day to have this treaty than it is to France. Why? The differences between the French general tariff and the French minimum tariff are very large. The difference between the duties of our intermediate tariff and our general tariff are
small. They run from up to 5 per cent, and in a few cases probably more. If we make no treaty with France to-day, all that happens to France is that she comes under our general tariff, which is a moderate tariff, while we come under their general tariff which is in most cases an exorbitant tariff, in many cases four times as much as the duties under their minimum tariff. Thus the right hon. gentleman will see that it is vastly more important to us to make this treaty with France to-day than it is for France to make it.
The hon. member for Lincoln said that the French minimum tariff gave what he called adequate protection. There is force in that. As a rule it is a higher rate than ours, and if we can not do business under the minimum tariff of France, what chance shall we have of doing business when their general tariff, their maximum tariff, is applied? If this treaty fails to-day, France need not worry much about it, because she would come under our general tariff which is a moderate tariff. My hon. friend for Lincoln would say that it is too low. At all events France would get the benefit of the moderate tariff. But if we do not adopt this treaty to-day, we come under the provisions of the French general tariff which is, in many cases, four times the rate of the minimum tariff.
It is true that our relations with France, are good-


Arthur Meighen: Before the hon. gentleman leaves that point, has he brought down or submitted to the House a notification, if there is one, from the French government, terminating or expressing an intention to terminate the arrangement that was in effect when he went over?


William Stevens Fielding: The notice to terminate the treaty between France and Canada? I know of the notice to terminate the original treaty that was passed years ago.


Arthur Meighen: I mean the notice to terminate the arrangement in effect when he went over, to succeed the original treaty.


William Stevens Fielding: I do not know if there was any formal notice; but the terms of the treaty set forth that it was only a temporary arrangement and that representatives of the governments were to meet together for the purpose of drawing up a larger and more comprehensive treaty.


Arthur Meighen: It was a status quo with continuance for a certain time. A certain time was to be given in case of a desire to cancel the treaty.

2000	COMMONS
French Treaty


William Stevens Fielding: The first clause reads:
Pending the conclusion of a new commercial convention, with a view to which negotiations will begin immediately, the French and Canadian governments have agreed to the following provisions.


Arthur Meighen: Is there not a clause providing for cancellation of that?


William Stevens Fielding: The agreement was made by the French government only on condition that it was a temporary agreement, and that both governments were to commence 'negotiations for a broader treaty. Is that not a notice to quit? My right hon. friend knows that the French consul in Montreal applied to his government for a resumption of negotiations; but they were postponed. The agreement itself shows that it was only a temporary thing, and that it was the duty of both governments to enter into negotiations respecting a more comprehensive treaty.


Arthur Meighen: I referred to it in that language myself; but I do not see any reason why Canada should press the temporary part of the clause, especially to get a worse condition of affairs than we have under the present agreement.


William Stevens Fielding: My right hon. friend does not see any reason why Canada should fulfil her obligations to enter into negotiations.
* Mr. MEIGHEN: Certainly.


William Stevens Fielding: I do. I think there is an obligation on the Canadian government to enter into negotiations, although the right hon. gentleman neglected doing so. I do not blame him for that, because he was busy with other things. Although he neglected this, we on our side did not neglect it. 'We felt that that was an obligation which we were called upon to fulfil and we have done so.


Arthur Meighen: I asked the hon. gentleman, I thought in courteous language, if there was not a clause providing for termination of the temporary agreement. Instead of answering me, he entered into a round of something pretty nearly abuse. I will now read the clause, if he will permit me.


Some hon. MEMBERS:: Order.


Arthur Meighen: Hon. gentlemen do not want to hear this.	*


William Stevens Fielding: I do not object.


Hewitt Bostock: I understand the hon. gentleman has allowed the question.


Arthur Meighen: Strange proceeding, I must say. Article 6 reads:

The present arrangement shall remain in force until the conclusion of a new commercial convention, but either of the high contracting parties may denounce it after four months' notice.
I asked if either of them had denounced it or expressed an intention to do so.


William Stevens Fielding: Speaking from memory, I do not think any formal denunciation took place. But I say that we are bound by the first clause of that agreement, which distinctly declared that it was of a temporary character, and being so bound we agreed to enter into negotiations to make a more comprehensive treaty. I know; as a matter of fact, from information given to me that the French consul in Montreal desired to enter into negotiations in the time of the right hon. gentleman's government. I am not complaining that my right hon. friend did not do so. His government were engaged with important matters. But when we came into power and the French consul asked us to resume negotiations, we felt that that was an obligation, and we gave him the assurance that we were ready to fulfil it.
I have pointed out that under the high French tariff, the volume of trade that we can hope to do is not very big. I have frankly said that from the beginning; but that is not a reason why we should not make an effort to do what we can in the matter. Our chief objective in this matter was to get on even terms with our brethren of the American republic. If we could not climb over the French tariff, you may say that they could not. Well, they are very energetic, very enterprising, and their agents are scouring the continent of Europe to-day in an effort to make favourable trade arrangements. My hon. friend for Lincoln said that we already have everything that we shall get under this treaty, and the leader of the Opposition said last night that I took over a better tariff arrangement than I brought back.


Arthur Meighen: A French tariff.


William Stevens Fielding: I am glad my right hon. friend does not dispute that.
Mr. MEIGHEN [DOT] But I do. What I said was that the Minister brought back a higher French tariff than existed before.


William Stevens Fielding: Well, the tariff I took over
was a dead one.


Arthur Meighen: Oh, no.


William Stevens Fielding: Oh, yes. It was absolutely dead; sentence of death had been carried out upon it. The only question we have to consider is whether the terms and

French Treaty
conditions of this treaty are better than the general tariff of France under which we shad operate if we do not accept the treaty. Now, the hon. member for Lincoln said, and he repeated it half a dozen times, that we have more to-day than we shall get under this treaty, and he wanted to know of what use the treaty was. "What do we want with it?'' -he said; "we have everything already that we can get under it." Have we? I will give my hon. friend some evidence on this point. I think he had better attend the meetings of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, of which he is a member. He occasionally gives expression to some of its views, but evidently he conveniently forgets many important things that they say. Here is a statement which was made by representatives of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association who waited upon the government of Canada on February 22nd, 1922:
French Treaty
The French government, although not obliged by treaty to do so, has exempted United States goods from increases applicable under the French general tariff, while it continues to apply those increases against Canadian goods.
The result is that on Canadian goods (other than the few lines which, by treaty, are subject to the French minimum tariff rates) France levies double to three times as much duty as she levies on similar goods imported from the United States.
That is the condition to-day, which the hon. member for Lincoln thinks is all right, and he tells us that we are not going to get anything as good as that now.
We placed these facts before the previous government (see appended copy of letter to Minister of Trade and Commerce) but, so far, France has made no change in these arrangements of her tariff.
The following Canadian products, among others, now suffer under this tariff discrimination if shipped to France:-wrought iron, iron bars, steel bars, tubes welded or not, furniture, pianos and organs, phonographs, varnishes, machine tools, locks, many forms of hardware, metallurgical alloys and substances, spirits, valves, brass goods, agricultural implement parts, shafts, screws, bolts, link belting, spark plugs, etc.
Follows a list of details bearing on this representation. The representation then concludes :
We respectfully urge upon your government the necessity of pressing for the immediate removal of said tariff discrimination.
That is what we have done by this treaty. Every item mentioned in this list submitted by that representation of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, and which has been subject to discrimination in the past, is novr placed upon even terms with the same article coming from the United States. That is one of the conditions that will exist under this treaty; and perhaps my hon. friend would like
further information along the same line. Wei!, let me show him how the present condition of affairs, which he says is so satisfactory, applies to one particular industry in this country. Here is a comparative statement showing the difference between the duty levied on parts for agricultural machinery imported from Canada and the same duty on these machinery parts imported from the United States. This is a statement of the
tariff now in force:

That is the present condition as affecting one particular industry in this country, namely, that engaged in the making of agricultural implements. For some years past, under an arrangement which my hon. friend for Lincoln evidently supported and with which he seemed to be so well pleased yesterday, every one of these items has suffered from a heavy discrimination against Canada. Under the present treaty every one of them will go into France on even terms with the United States' product. And that was really the main purpose of the agreement. We knew that France was a high tariff country and that in all probability we should not be able to do a great deal of trade with her. But in view of the representations made to us in regard to the disadvantage under which we were labouring, we considered, in face of the fact that France was a high tariff country, and in the face of our knowledge that the United States was enjoying a great advantage over us, that it was well, in justice to Canada and all interests in this country, that that discrimination
French Treaty

should be removed; and that is one of the features we present to the House in the present treaty. That was the main object we had in negotiating this treaty, and in that we have accomplished all that can be reasonably desired. I think, therefore, that my hon. friend for Lincoln, on reflection, will discover that a good many of these items in this tariff are not padding after all.


Sir HENRY DRAYTON (West York):: Mr. Speaker, what a great pity it is that my hon. friend the Minister of Finance (Mr. Fielding) is not the diplomat and the negotiator that he is the orator and the debator. But after all, is it not a very easy thing to seize upon a little slip here and there and exploit it? Take for example, bronze powders. Apparently the amount of this article exported is so infinitesimal as to make it not worth while devoting a line to it in the customs papers. The minister seizes upon something here and something there of this description and takes the hon. member for Lincoln (Mr. Chaplin) to task, the whole offence of that hon. gentleman having consisted in giving the exact facts regarding the different items covered by my hon. friend's treaty. The hon. gentleman for Lincoln did not say that there were no items of any use in the treaty. He said in connection with several items that there was an opportunity for trade. But the hon. member for Lincoln took a position that the Minister of Finance cannot understand.


William Stevens Fielding: Hear, hear.


Henry Lumley Drayton: He took an honest position against the interests of his own trade because he thought the gen-
4 p.m. eral good of Canada demanded that he should take that position. That is what he did. But I know something of the inception of this matter, and my hon. friend could have gone further. He could have shown that in connection with some of these items, purchased at such great cost to the common people of this country-purchased at the sacrifice of the interests of our agriculturists-he could have shown, I say, other items, especially asked for by the hon. member for Lincoln, which would have tremendously helped him in his business. Is it a very, veiy heinous offence for an hon. member of this House, forgetting his own personal interests and the interests of his association, to say something on behalf of the rest of the people?
Now, let us take the hon. minister's next point, it is that the attitude of the hon. member for Lincoln was that our trade with France being so infinitesimal it was not worth

while trying to develop it. So far as we in this quarter of the House are concerned, we have not taken that attitude. The Minister of Finance is perfectly right-our government wanted a treaty with France, some tariff arrangement that would enable the commerce of both countries, not of one country alone, to be advanced. It is quite true that we always wanted such an arrangement; but it is entirely another thing to say that , we wanted something which involves all that this treaty involves against the interests of Canada. We would like to do everything in our power to help the French republic. I do not know whether the hon. minister is advancing this treaty just on that score alone, or whether he thinks that the benefit the few favoured manufacturers who are helped is the real ground why this treaty is brought down.
I repeat, we would like to help France as much as we possibly can, but we still think that our first duty is to Canada-helping France as much as we can without the direct sacrifice of Canadian interests. That was our attitude then, and it is our attitude to-day.
We find, Mr. Speaker, some extraordinary things growing out of this discussion. Why, we have learned from the mouth of the Minister of Finance that Canada is a low tariff country; that we have no excessive tariffs, simply low tariffs. When m}' hon. friend said that he was. dealing of course with his own tariff, because it has always been continued. And he was telling us the truth about that tariff. For it is a low tariff. It is high in regard to some items, I admit, one or two here and there that might be lowered, but it is a low tariff. It is a great thing to get the truth sometimes. Look at the records of this House and observe how often my hon. friend has moved resolutions demanding the reduction of the tariff which he and his supporters then described as high and extortionate. Why, what was the last election fought on? In some districts it paid my hon. friends opposite to fight it on the ground that our tariff was a high tariff-as high as Haman's gallows. But once anyone takes the trouble to look into our tariff he must admit, if he would be honest about it, that it is dwarfed into pallid insignificance compared with tariffs elsewhere. That is one thing we have learned-ours is a low tariff.
My hon. friend makes a lot out of the treaty of 1921. Well, that was a temporary treaty. It was not a treaty that we took five months to evolve, anyway, nor was it a treaty that we sent emissaries overseas to look after. That treaty negotiation was merely incidental to other work and was the best we could arrange. And certainly it is much bet-

French Treaty
ter than the treaty now before us. My hon. friend says that France wants to have a tariff that will enable her to negotiate proper business transactions. Very well, why should not Canada have a similar tariff? Why should not Canada^ look after herself just as well as France looks after her own interests?


William Stevens Fielding: Why did you not do it?


Henry Lumley Drayton: My hon. friend asks: "Why did not we do that?" Of course, that is the cheapest of all kinds of questions. Had we been given an opportunity, had we come back to office, we would have done it.


William Stevens Fielding: Oh, yes.


Henry Lumley Drayton: My hon. friend says, " Oh, yes." Does he give me no other reason why Canada should not look after her own commercial interests except that we did not do it?
Mr. FIELpiNG: Oh no, I do not give that reason.


Henry Lumley Drayton: Very good.
France is looking after herself, and that is not a crime. But just let us look at the spectacle that is presented to us. Here we have these two gentlemen going over to negotiate a commercial treaty with a view, presumably, of doing something to help Canadian trade; going over to deal with a country which, according to the Minister of Finance, was already committed to high tariffs. Without the slightest preparation, without the slightest thing to help them in . negotiating, they go over, committed by their public utterances here not to any higher tariff to enable Canadian trade to be looked after, but committed to a lower tariff. Then the French ministers, who understand their country's business so well, say to our representatives, " Well, yes, your tariff is coming down instead of going up, but ours is going up, and if you wish to do any business with us you have got to come up so much." And then we are told by the Minister of Finance that it is impossible to do anything. The representatives of France are business men, men looking after the interests of France, and for my hon. friend to tell me that he cannot do anything when France has a very large balance of trade in her favour is equivalent to saying that either the French representatives care not for that balance of trade, or else that he never appreciated the strength of his position. Generally when you have one country with a heavy balance of trade in its favour, and the other therefore with a correspondingly
adverse balance, what is tried to be done is to adjust those balances so that interchange of commerce may be rendered more easy. But what my hon. friend has done is to make very sure that the adverse balance will be greater than it has been in the past. It is perfectly true so far as the particular lines of activity which my hon. friend has referred to are concerned we will sell more of them, but so far as the big, basic exports of this country are concerned, if this tariff has any effect, we are going to sell far less of them. I only know one real argument, that is, if the good of the majority be served here, in favour of this treaty, and that argument is the Liberal platform. I am going to refer to that dishonoured and much abused document again, Mr. Speaker. One solemn resolution read:
Be and it is hereby resolved (1) That the serious nature of the country's financial situation calls for the profoundest consideration of all patriotic citizens, and the exercise of the severest economy by the government.
I am not now pointing out that economy is entirely forgotten and that the only change in the situation is that we are just so much more in debt, but I have to give the House the run of the whole resolution:
(2) That increase of revenue must be sought from an equitable and effective imposition and collection of graduated taxes on business profits and income applicable to all incomes above reasonable exemptions; (3) Taxes on luxuries-
Taxes on luxuries. You know, Mr. Speaker, we are told that there is so much bad in the best of us and so much good in the worst of us that I would point out to my hon. friend, although he had nothing whatever to do with that platform, although he has on the floor of this House discarded it, that there may be something good even in that platform, even in that awful document so inimical to the real fiscal interests of this country. There was, I think, something good in it. I think that taxes on luxuries are right. But this French treaty absolutely forbids them. It is the one argument in its favour. Not only does it forbid it by making its reductions of ten or fifteen per cent off the low intermediate tariff, but it also goes further and provides for specific duties tying the hands of this country. I do not know whether his abhorrence to that platform had anything to do with my hon. friend's treaty or not, but it is really a very apparent argument in favour of the treaty from his standpoint.
My hon. friend opened up the discussion of this treaty I think very fairly. He said in opening that he did not know that it would amount to very much; I think those were hi?

French Treaty

exact words. He did not know if we would do very much business under it; he was not sure. He said at page 464 of Hansard:
France will not make as generous a treaty to-day as she did in 1907.
So we have it from the lips of the real negotiator, because I have no doubt that my hon. friend the Minister of Marine and Fisheries (Mr. Lapointe) had some other business to look after-for example, he was looking after all the cables dealing with that most important question the appointment of his friend Mr. Talbot as a director of the Canadian National Railways, and other large matters of state administration-


Mr. LAPOINTE:: Where did you get that fine piece of information?


Henry Lumley Drayton: It was in the
press. Of course, if my friend tells me he had nothing to do with that nomination, why, he knows; I do not.


Ernest Lapointe: The press stated in the month of February that the name of Mr. Talbot came as a surprise.


Henry Lumley Drayton: The press, I
think, said that cables had been sent over to my friend about it, and that he cabled back that a representative of Quebec would be appointed.


Ernest Lapointe: That is different.


Henry Lumley Drayton: I quite admit to my hon. friend that he may not have thought then that he was going to so greatly advance one of the minor employees of the Quebec government. That was never publicly talked about then. I admit freely and frankly that everybody was amazed when the appointment was mentioned.


Arthur Meighen: Hear, hear.


Henry Lumley Drayton: Mr. Speaker,
here we have the statement of the chief negotiator that this treaty is not as good as the last treaty. Let us just look at the last treaty.


Mr. VIEN:: The dead one.


Henry Lumley Drayton: My hon. friend says the dead one. I do not know exactly why he says that. It may interest him to make use of the word "dead."


Thomas Vien: Let us say dying.


Henry Lumley Drayton: Suppose we take that treaty of 1907, not the treaty of 1921, and if my hon. friend wants to call that treaty dead I do not know but what he is

right; if he had gone still further and said it never should have been made, it would have been much better, and if it never had been made there would have been a great deal more money in Canada to-day. But let us look at that treaty of 1907. A fair way of looking at the effect of a treaty of that character is to examine its results after it has got into operation: I think my hon. friend will agree with me in that statement. It is also fair to deal with it for a term of years, and the usual term for purposes of comparison is five years, most statisticians use .that term. I am going to give the House figures showing how well the old French treaty worked out, not for Canada, but for France, and I do not think I am fair to France in saying France in that way-not fair to Canada, but most advantageous to the most favoured nations. For the five years from 1909 to the year 1913 the total French imports into Canada were $56,991,000 odd. The total of Canadian exports to France as against that $56,991,000 of imports amounted to $11,883,000 odd. The yearly average for the period was $11,398,000 of imports and $2,376,000 of exports, resulting in an average yearly unfavourable trade balance against Canada of $9,000,000 odd, or an adverse trade balance against us for the five years under consideration of $45,107,000 odd. It paid, did it not? A wonderful contract got by my hon. friend, and the sad part of the thing is that instead of improving our sad position he comes back and admits that he has made a worse bargain.
Now let us go back to the year 1909 and take the imports from France for that year and those for the year 1913, and just see what happens. The imports in 1909 were $8,197,000 odd. The imports for 1913 were $15,375,000 odd, or an increase of $7,178,000 odd, or 87 *56 per cent. That is what the treaty was doing for France. Now let us take the exports and see what the treaty was doing for Canada. The exports to France in 1909 were $2,341,000 odd, and in 1913 $2,357,000 odd, an increase of $15,647, or -66 of one per cent. That is what my hon. friend's diplomacy does for Canada. On the one hand it gives an increase in the French business of 87.56 per cent and on the other hand an increase in the Canadian business of just .66 of one per cent. Take it in another way. Just look at the adverse trade balance that he manages to work up. In 1909 the adverse trade balance was $5,855,000 odd. In 1913 the adverse trade balance was $13,018,000 odd. There was an increase in the five-year period under my hon. friend's treaty of $7,162,000 odd in

French Treaty
Canada's adverse trade balance, or an increase of 122 per cent. And, Mr. Speaker, the minister says that this new agreement is not a good contract, that is not as good as the one entered into before. Of course, it is true that France's imports per capita are less than ours. Her duties are higher and that is one reason why we should have been granted more favourable terms. For example in the Book of Statistics of the United States for, I think it is, 1920, the last year for which the figures have been compiled, the imports per capita for France are given as $84.71, while Canadas are $131.88; and this condition is to be aggravated by this treaty. "What harm is it," asks my hon. friend. My hon. friend says the Americans are busier. I wonder if my hon. friend could not have hired an American to look after this treaty for him. He has only got just what the Americans have, and they have given nothing, no concession, and they have entered into no contract or no treaty. France just simply gave the United States favoured rates. When he says that he has put Canada in the same position as the United States is it true? Why, the United States gives nothing, but Canada ties her hand and says the duties shall be thus and thus- .


Thomas Vien: Does my hon. friend contend that better terms could have been obtained from the French government?


Henry Lumley Drayton: I have not the slightest doubt of it-not the slightest. I cannot imagine anything worse than we have in this arrangement of ours.


Thomas Vien: On what does my hon. friend base that view?


Henry Lumley Drayton: On the basis of common sense. On the interest France must have in maintaining this trade so advantageous to her, and the unnecessary and extraordinary concessions which France enjoys under this treaty. Does my hon. friend want any other reason?


Thomas Vien: Why did you not get a better treaty m 1919?


Henry Lumley Drayton: We had some reverence for the work that had been done before. I have always had tremendous regard for the Minister of Finance. I had no idea until I looked into this treaty how horribly the contract he has made works out for us. I do not think the hon. gentlemen opposite had any idea either. The Minister of Marine and Fisheries looks at me incredulously. I * do not think he knew what the trade figures
127+
were when he went over to France or he would not have come back with such a contract as this.
Now, let us see what we are giving up? Of course, we are giving up our fiscal independence-that is independence in the matter of framing our own tariff. We grant specific duties which we cannot raise. Franco does nothing of the kind, absolutely nothing. We give a contract to the effect that the percentage between our intermediate and general tariffs shall be maintained. France does absolutely nothing of the kind. Canada is tied; France is free. My hon. friends opposite applaud a treaty of that kind. I wonder why? In addition to that let us see what we are giving up in connection with tariff rates in some instances; I do not pretend to have mastered all the items covered by this treaty. However, it is not necessary to deal with the whole of it; a few citations will be enough. First let us see what comes in from France below the British preferential rate. Item 156 covers cognac, brandy and armagnac brandy, something that will come into direct competition with Quebec in so far as their local production is concerned. Perhaps they think there should be no local production in Quebec. I do not know.


Some hon. MEMBERS:: Oh, oh.


Henry Lumley Drayton: If they do think there should be no local production in Quebec, my hon. friends opposite would be quite right in voting for these duties. The British duty is $10. The intermediate duty is $10, but under this tariff it is reduced to the most favoured nations to $9, a difference of 10 per cent. Take another item, champagne. There also the French rate is 10 per cent below the British rate. Now let us take castile soap.


Thomas Vien: You need it more.


Mr. CANNON:: You are blowing bubbles.


Henry Lumley Drayton: Here also France gets a reduction of 10 per cent. The British rate is 10 cents and French soap pays but 9 cents. I could take also item 81, trees, etc.; item 86, canned vegetables; item 169, novels or works of fiction; item 182, printed music and music for mechanical piano players; item 262, olive oil; item 264, essential oils; item 583, manufactures of silk; item 657a, moving picture films, all of which made as low as the British rate. We are indeed doing something; we are giving specific rates to France and entering into certain covenants advantageous to her and receiving nothing

French Treaty
rate, for 2i times the amount that France sold. As regards item 653, brushes, under my hon. friend's treaty he takes 10 per cent off the intermediate scale of 25J per cent. In 1922, France sold $42,941 worth of brushes, and Japan sold us $114,415 worth, again considerably more than twice as much. Under tariff item 651, dealing with buttons, where the treaty clips ten per cent off the intermediate rate of 30 per cent, France sold us $11,332 worth of buttons and Japan sold $107,761 worth. Does this not seem perfectly ridiculous when one comes to examine it? For the purpose of assisting the trade of France, Canada makes a special rate on buttons for some real or imaginary-I think, imaginary-benefit to the country, when France is selling only $11,000 worth of them and Japan $107,000, and Japan gets the benefit of that rate.
Item 368 deals with clocks and watches, and the treaty takes 10 per cent off the intermediate rate, which is 27^ per cent. France sold $3,829 worth whereas Switzerland sold $75,586 worth. Yet there is no concession at all to Canada in connection with the sale of that $75,000 worth of goods in our market. In item 453, electrical apparatus, telephones, etc., 10 per cent is cut off the intermediate rate, which is 25 per cent. In this case France sold $1,231 worth; Japan, $18,180 worth, and Switzerland $12,915 worth. Yet they all get the same reduction.
Let us take embroideries, in connection with which we have a low rate. There is an omnibus section, 575, which embraces a lot of different embroideries, handkerchiefs, etc. Take embroideries, white or cream coloured, m connection with which my hon. friend fixes a specific rate of duty. France sold Us m these embroideries $6,039, and Switzerland $423,092. So here is Canada violating all proper principles of her own fiscal policy m fixing a duty apparently at the behest of France, when France sells us $6,000 worth of these particular goods as against some $423,000 sold us by Switzerland. Of other embroideries France sold us in the same year, $17,700, while Switzerland sold us $100,598. In handkerchiefs France sold us $5,629, Japan sold us $77,050, and Switzerland $225,823. I would ask my hon. friend the Minister of Marine and Fisheries if he had any idea what he was doing when he was opening Canada's doors to that outside trade in that volume in luxuries, not only to France, who supplied only a fraction of the trade, but to other ^countries as well? Did he realize what he was doing? I am sure he did not. Let us take lace, white or cream coloured. France sold

us of lace $68,474 worth; the Netherlands sold us $36,736; and Switzerland sent us $241,915. Next take lace nets and netting, not otherwise provided for. In this line France sold us $186,568 and Switzerland $72,879. So that under that item, 575, France sold to Canada in the year 1922, $284,480, while Switzerland sold us $1,064,307.
I wonder whether my hon. friends really realize what the treaty does, and what further excuses we are going to have for letting in this large amount of articles which can be described only as luxuries, under such circumstances as indicate that the contention that this treaty is for France is very largely absolutely wrong. France is not getting the benefit of it. The next item I would point out is 120, anchovies and sardines. In this case there is another of those precious fixed rates of duty. France sells us $36,639 worth of this article, while Norway sells us $246,613. Some people will say, of-course, that anchovies are a, good thing to have and are not luxuries, although some of us describe them as such. However, let us proceed; let us take item 581, silk fabrics. This is something that is pre-eminently in the class of luxuries and there is a fixed duty of 20 per cent against the intermediate tariff of 27| per cent. Franca sold us $1,006,000 worth of this article as against $3,970,706 worth supplied by Japan. In other words, Japan gets this amount of silks in under a fixed duty, giving nothing in return for the advantage. Switzerland under the same item supplies, as against France's sale of $1,000,000, the sum of $4,093,000 again giving no concession for it. Take item 582, silk ribbons. The fixed duty is 25 per cent as against the intermediate duty of 32J per cent. Under this item France sold us $248,656 worth and Switzerland $692,40S. Item 624 refers to toys and dolls, 10 per cent off the intermediate duty of 27i per cent. Of these articles France sold $23,173 worth as against Japan's sale of $187,150.
The next item is wearing apparel-but what is the use of going on with the list? What is the use of proceeding with these figures, Mr. Speaker? Here we have a treaty which of necessity, with matters as they are now, and as my hon. friend admits, extends automatically these great concessions granted to France by Canada to all these other countries, without the slightest advantage in return to this country. I am again sure that the hon. the Minister of Marine, in view of his studied declarations in this House, could never have had these figures before him or have known what he was doing. It is really very hard even to begin to cover the

French Treaty
objections that one may raise to this treaty. I am not going to try to do it. I have pointed out a few of them, but there are so many more that it would be entirely beyond my power to enumerate them. Let. me, however, indicate something else. Whe'i the hon. member for Lincoln was speaking yesterday he was showing what the result would be calculating on the basis of 7 cents to the franc. We are not doing veiy much business, if any at all, in many instances, with this rate. But I wonder whether my hon. friends have really considered what will happen if the franc goes up. If the franc, which is to-day valued at 7 cents for purposes of the calculations made by the hon, member for Lincoln, should go up, you might just as well try to do business with the moon as with France. It would be just as reasonable. Take canned vegetables. I am going to ask my hon. friend to correct me if I am wrong. The Canadian rate on canned vegetables works out at a cent a pound; the French rate works out at If cents per pound, on the basis of 7 cents to the franc. The franc at par represents 20 cents. Supposing it never goes back to 20 cents but just rises even to 14 cents, which would still give a big discount, I should like to know from the' Minister of Finance whether he honestly thinks he could do any business at all under these rates. My hon. friend says nothing. He knows he could not do any business under such conditions. No reasonable man in the world would suggest that business could be done on these precious rates. Of course, I am referring to the rates on the various articles that we have been considering. Take the agricultural rates, so far as the minimum and ' the general tariffs are concerned they are left as they were originally. But with the franc worth 14 cents, or a depreciation of 33-1/3 per cent of its real value, does my hon. friend honestly think any business can be done with France in canned goods? Why, we are not doing any business now except to a very small extent.
I submit, Mr. Speaker, that the whole effect of this treaty will be to make trading with France more difficult except as to articles in which the Canadian manufacturers are specifically interested. And I am not saying that our manufacturers ought not to be considered; they ought to be; but they should not have any exclusive consideration in a matter of this kind. Nobody is helped except our manufacturers. And the stand of the hon. member for Lincoln instead of being a matter of reprobation, I again submit, Sir, ought to be heartily approved. He stands against his self interest, recognizing what this
treaty does to primary and other productions, recognizing what it does in reducing the duties on and the revenues from luxuries and the like, recognizing that such reduction must be made up at the expense of the rest of us, recognizing that every single cent taken off here-and there will be a lot-simply means a little more charged elsewhere on the necessities of everyone. I repeat Mr. Speaker, that instead of being disapproved the course of the hon. member ought to be very much approved.


Mir. JOSEPH ARCHAMBAULT (Chambly and Vereheres):: Mr. Speaker, in my opinion we should praise the government for their recent activities in the development of our foreign trade. Everyone will admit that an increase in the volume of this trade will help to solve the important problems that are now confronting us-emigration, immigration, the reduction of our national debt and the lightening of the burden of taxation. An increase in our foreign trade implies the revival of our industries and the exploitation as well as the further development of our natural resources. In a word, Sir, if we create or enlarge new markets it will be a great incentive to further production, whether agricultural or industrial. This government has only been in power for a little over a year, and already trade agreements have been made with France. and Italy, and similar agreements are in process of negotiation with Belgium and Australia.
International trade is based on the same principle as private trade, and cannot be promoted by inactivity. You may have the best of goods to sell, but if you do not approach the consumer you will find no market. The best way to create international trade and reach the foreign consumer is by the governments of the various countries of the world making treaties, advertising their goods and employing active trade commissioners. It must be admitted, Sir, that when the government assumed office the conditions surrounding our foreign trade were chaotic. Having no commercial treaties with other countries meant instability of commercial conditions, and manufacturers and merchants were chary about engaging in foreign trade. Our importers and exporters were similarly affected. There was always the menace of a sudden change in the tariffs of other countries and this uncertainty paralyzed our foreign trade. Therefore the results of the first year's efforts of this government to stabilize our foreign commerce are in striking contrast to the nonchalant and indifferent action-or shall I say, inaction?-of the late administration.
French Treaty

The former Minister of Trade and Commerce, Sir George Foster, who at the time had assumed a new and pleasant responsibility, and already had delectable visions of a comfortable seat in the Red Chamber, could not attend to the proper development of our trade with foreign countries. And probably his colleagues were too busy preparing for the magnificent electoral triumph of 1921. The only effort apparently of the last administration to revive our foreign trade manifested itself in the baneful loans to Greece and Roumania. These, it is true, meant a revival of trade for certain companies of which members of parliament and even ministers were directors; but they meant also a practical loss of nearly $35,000,000 to the Dominion.
Mr. ME1GHEN: How does the hon. gentleman make that out? Does the government not intend to collect or does it not expect to collect this money?


Joseph Archambault: We intend to collect it, but we do not say that we are sure to collect it..


Arthur Meighen: The hon. gentleman, then, is just counting the money as lost, which is a mere guess.


Joseph Archambault: It is not a guess. It is based on facts. We have been trying to collect the loans made by the
5 p.m. late administration. My right hon. friend did not succeed in collecting one cent of interest from Roumania. It is true that now, through the wisely directed efforts of the government we are beginning to get some interest from Greece and Roumania.


Arthur Meighen: Hear, hear. You will get every dollar.


Joseph Archambault: Therefore, Mr. Speaker, I was not surprised to hear the long and undigested protest of the hon. member for Lincoln (Mr. Chaplin), who was well satisfied when the late administration confined its efforts to promote our foreign trade, into buying goods from the inner circles and selling them to bankrupt countries at the expense of the people of Canada.


Arthur Meighen: Will the hon. gentleman not tell us the value of the agricultural products which were financed by those loans?


Joseph Archambault: From the reports that were made to the House I understand that out of some $27,000,000 a little over $3,000,000 was devoted to the purchase of *wheat. Most of the money was lavished on axes and saws manufactured by companies of

which the hon. member for Lincoln was a director, and upon roofing and other articles of merchandise manufactured by companies of which some members of the then administration were directors.


Arthur Meighen: The hon. gentleman has no right to make any such statement. It is absolutely contrary to the truth.


Joseph Archambault: Does not my hon. friend remember that I based my accusations a year ago on a return which was made by the late administration, and which showed that quite a number of members of parliament supporting the late administration, and even a minister of the Crown, were directors of companies that sold to Greece and Roumania to an amount of something like $20,000,000? My hon. friend cannot deny that.
Mr. MEIGHEN": That is very different from what the hon. member said. He said that most of it was that. Only a small fraction of it was that, and what was obtained by such companies was obtained in open competition just as any other company got it. My hon. friend knows that. He knows as well that similar companies in which hon. members no doubt are interested, perhaps in which they are directors, will benefit under this treaty. It is exactly the same thing. The hon. member is only trying to create a prejudice upon what he knows is a false premise.


Joseph Archambault: I am not trying to create a prejudice. I only wish to show to the House that the hon. member for Lincoln is much more particular and exacting when we are trying to make a treaty with. France than he was when we were selling goods to Roumania and Greece. The hon. member first objected to the tariff on French wines, and he submitted that it was unfair to allow French wines to come in under a tax of 15 cents a gallon while Canadian wine was paying a revenue of 30 cents a gallon to this country. Well, first of all, my hon. friend forgot when he made that statement that the Minister of Finance when introducing his bill stated that on account of the treaty, re-adjustments would have to be made that would be announced in the budget speech. But there is a second answer. Coming from a province where it is a misdemeanour even to think of wine except when it is made within the province and is unpalatable, is it not amusing to hear the hon. member protest against advantages given to the importation of French wines? If I am well informed French wines cannot be sold

French Treaty
legally in Ontario except for religious and medicinal purposes. True, intentional ailments are very numerous, but there is hardly any consumption of Ontario wines in the other provinces, unless one is willing to take a chance of getting permanent headache.


Arthur Meighen: The hon. gentleman has no ground for that statement. It is not the fact.	.	.


Joseph Archambault: Is it not a fact that there is hardly any Ontario wine sold in the other provinces?


Arthur Meighen: I think I can show that over half of the sales of Ontario wines is in the province of Quebec and the province of British Columbia.


Joseph Archambault: How much does it amount to?


Arthur Meighen: I have not the figures but I can get them. But that is the percentage; something over half is sold in these two provinces, Quebec and British Columbia.


Joseph Archambault: My point is this, that the reduction of the tariff on French wines will not interfere with the sale of the native wines of Ontario. It is admitted by everybody that a person who has been in the habit of drinking French wine will not drink Ontario wine.


Arthur Meighen: I cannot dispute that.


Joseph Archambault: Perhaps, but judging by the remarks of my hon. friend for Lincoln he takes the ordinary, narrow stand that because some other provinces allow their people legally to consume imported wines, he should step in and impose upon them the narrow and illogical views of his own province. So much for the hon. member for Lincoln. I am not going to go through the whole schedules like he did.
The hon. member for West York (Sir Henry Drayton) who spoke in very dramatic tones, praising, unnecessarily I may say the well known unselfishness of the hon. member for Lincoln, did not answer the unassailable argument made by the Minister of Finance, and which is the gist of the question, that in making this treaty with France we get the best possible conditions under the circumstances. By this treaty we get trade conditions with France better than the United States has.


Arthur Meighen: Better?


Joseph Archambault: Better than the
United States, as I shall be able to show in a few moments. Suppose this treaty is not
passed. Trade conditions between Canada and France as respects the tariff would be in a much worse condition. The hon. member for West York also indulged in some reproaches regarding the platform of the Liberal party in which it was stated that we would not make any reductions on luxuries. The hon. member must remember that we are dealing with France. He must remember that we are making a trade agreement with a country, and that the agreement must therefore deal with articles produced by that country; otherwise it is useless. Everyone knows also that France produces luxuries more than any other goods, such as wines, perfume, silk and many other articles. The hon. member for West York also stated that the old treaty was better than we have now. Suppose that is true; the old treaty is dead. As my hon. friend said, the old treaty of 1907 is dead.


Arthur Meighen: No, it just dies when this comes into effect. This kills it.


Joseph Archambault: The treaty of 1907?


Arthur Meighen: Oh, I thought you meant the one that went into effect in 1921.


Joseph Archambault: The old treaty
was buried three years ago. Perhaps my hon. friend has not waked up to that fact yet.


Arthur Meighen: What the Minister of
Finance said was that the temporary treaty was dead.


Joseph Archambault: I am speaking of
the treaty of 1907, and there is good reason why the present treaty may not be as advantageous as the old treaty. In 1907 France was not the high tariff country that she is now. There was no such high protection in France then, and the reason why France is more protective to-day is because she has incurred such losses during the war that she wishes now to have an increased revenue in order to recuperate.
I may have been mistaken when I said that we have better trade conditions with France under this treaty than the United States has, but I refer to the particulars of the products under this convention. The first item is horses. If the new agreement goes into effect the rate on horses from Canada will be 150 francs and on horses from the United States 225 francs.


Arthur Meighen: Then it was better with the United States before, because the duty on horses is not changed?
Mr. J&ICHAMBAULT: It is better now.


Arthur Meighen: No it was better before.
French Treaty


Joseph Archambault: I repeat that it is better now. The figures speak for themselves. I do not know that I need say anything further in reply to the speech of the hon. member for West York, but I wish to place before the House another aspect of the question, and it seems to me that this point should have been brought forward by some hon. members opposite if we consider the speeches they used to make five or six years ago. 1 submit Sir, that out of sympathy and friendliness every facility should be given to France in her tremendous task of reconstruction. It is true that we should approach the consideration of this treaty from a business- point of view but, under the circumstances, that consideration should not be absolutely freed from sentiment. Let us consider what the losses and sufferings of France have been. She lost a million and a half of men killed, 750,000 crippled, and 2,000,000 dangerously wounded. She spent a tremendous sum of money in resisting the invader; and what have her losses in property been? The Germans destroyed or devastated seven of her departments, 4,000 cities and villages, 550,000 houses, a territory of 6,300 square miles whose population in 1914 was 4,700,000, 94 per cent of her woollen industries, 90 per cent of her steel works, 55 per cent of her electrical industries, 70 per cent of her sugar refineries, 35 per cent of her coal mines, 2,500 miles of her railroads, 670 miles of canals, and 450 bridges. When we consider the suffering she has undergone and the martyrdom that she has endured we should have every sympathy for her. She is the nation which has suffered most gravely during the war. She has set herself heroically to the work of rebuilding her devastated areas. When one considers all these things and also remembers that we are dealing with an ally and a friendly nation it seems to me that an element of helpfulness and of sympathy should be added to our strict sense of business in endeavouring to arrive at a proper conclusion. Moreover, this fact, also, should not be forgotten: In dealing with Canada France is dealing with a nation comprising over two and a half millions of citizens in whose veins her own blood flows, and who have sacredly preserved for her a love born of the ties of kinship, a love that will never die.


Mr. ROBERT FORKE (Brandon):: Mr. Speaker, while listening to the speech of the hon. memer for Lincoln (Mr. Chaplin) yesterday afternoon, without having ha^ an opportunity of looking into the . French treaty, it seemed to me that he made out a rather

serious case against the convention as it now stands. However, since then I have had some little time and opportunity to examine more carefully into the details of the treaty and to form some conclusion as to what the arrangement means. As a consequence I have altered my opinion to some extent. While article after article was mentioned that we never exported to France it really seemed as if the treaty did not amount, to very much after all.
Listening to the speeches this afternoon it strikes me as very peculiar that so much effort should be made to enter into treaties and build up international trade, while all the nations of the world are devoting themselves assiduously to the erection of tariff walls to exclude that very trade. I think, perhaps, a period will come in the world's history when the inhabitants will look back to the present era and wonder how much wisdom was displayed at this time in the promotion of treaties for developing international trade.	[DOT]
The hon. member who has just resumed his seat remarked that international trade was just like private trade. I cannot see the question in that light. I never saw people who wanted to do private trade endeavouring to construct obstacles for the purpose of hindering it. The same may be said of international agreements for the promotion of commerce. Seemingly nations are engaged in building tariff walls with the object of hampering trade with other nations as much as they possibly can.
The ex-Minister of Finance (Sir Henry Drayton) made what I call a high protection speech. He came out very plainly and disclosed where he himself stands at the present time in regard to tariff matters. One of his main arguments was that if we had a policy of really high protection then we would have a weapon in our hands which would be of value to us when we came to bargain in trade matters with other nations. I do not place very much reliance on that sort of argument. If that is the only reason why we should have a high protective tariff then I think we might just as well leave the matter alone.
The argument has been made that the present treaty is not as good as the one previously arranged. I do not think that is a very strong argument to put forward at the present time. The two ministers of the present government who negotiated the present treaty may have found obstacles in their way which prevented them from concluding an arrangement as favourable as the one it replaces. The French government, in

French Treaty
its wisdom, has seen fit to increase its tariff, and has acted within its rights in so doing. Of course, Canada had to make the very best bargain possible under the circumstances. The French general tariff is not very much higher than the one which will be operative under this treaty, but it seems to me that it is advisable for us to have a treaty with France.
Looking over the list of articles that we have exported for some time past, I find that the chief items have been lard, lobsters, wheat and wrheat products, oats and oatmeal, table fruits, sugar, wood and manufactures of wood, and smelts. On all these articles there is practically no change in the tariff. Another product that we export is canned salmon. We export a large amount of canned salmon and there has been some increase in the duty. However, there is not much change in the duties on the main articles that we export to France, and it is quite possible that in the future there may be some increase in our exports.
On the whole I do not believe that this treaty is one of supreme importance to Canada. However I take the ground that it is well that we should have a treaty, and that it should be just as favourable a treaty with France as it is possible to get. But we know the circumstances. I do not believe the Dominion of Canada and France are ever likely to have what may be called a treaty that will be of tremendous advantage to Canada, because the articles we are likely to import from France are largely articles of luxury, which, perhaps, I would be in favour of taxing pretty highly before allowing them to come into our daily consumption. I think perhaps the most important part in the whole treaty is the fact that Canada is placed on an equality with the United States in regard to her imports into the republic of France. It seems to me, in looking over the list of the old treaty, that on a great many articles the United States had a more favourable rate than Canada. That feature has been entirely removed and to-day we occupy just as favourable a position in that respect as the United States. This matter is intricate in many of its details, . and yet, in looking over the treaty carefully, I do not believe it is of very great importance after all, other than that it is desirable that Canada should have friendly relations with France as far as possible, that we ought to have a treaty to understand just in what position we are placed, and that we should be placed in the most favourable position we can possibly occupy in our relations with that country. I have no doubt the minister made the best possible bargain. I
do not say it is a splendid bargain. I do not think it is. I really do not think we have got very much that will prove to be of any great benefit to us as a dominion. However, I intend to support and vote for the treaty.
Before concluding I would like to compliment the Minister of Finance on his virility and the way in which he has presented this matter. I am sure we are all pleased to see him able to take care of Himself and to defend what he has been doing in so able a manner.


Arthur Meighen: I join gladly in the last words of the hon. member for Brandon (Mr. Forke). I am not certain that I will be able to agree with him in any other sentence he uttered. The minister's defence did not fail in vigour or in point of ingenuity. The minister was at his best in selecting the unimportant and magnifying it into great consequence, particularly when he had something at hand that reflected upon it, and then proceeding to its destruction with animation, with some threatenings of attitude, but with meagre success. The minister's favourite habit of argument is to state his opponent's case not only in language but in substance to suit himself, very often wholly at variance with the realities of the case, but in such form that his powers of abuse and of ridicule may be exercised against his opponent.


William Stevens Fielding: Abuse?


Arthur Meighen: Yes, abuse. If I may
depart from the subject in hand, I could give an illustration very recent indeed, and I can produce the absolute proof for what I say. The minister went into the constituency of North Essex and proceeded to reply to certain arguments that he stated I had used in an address in the town of Walkerville. He stated that I had made an attack upon a reduction of 83,000,000 in the estimates of the Department of Soldiers Civil Re-establishment, that I had declared that this was done at the expense of the widows and orphans, and he held me up to ridicule as one who could not be relied upon at all, because as he statqd, he knew I was intelligent enough to understand that the Department of Soldiers Civil Reestablishment did not deal with widows and orphans. I knew he added that reduction was merely due to contraction of responsibilities consequent on getting further away from the war. But he portrayed me before his audience as a misrepresenter of the truth, willing to take an advantage not based on facts. His work of destruction was well done. Give him a
French Treaty

wind-mill to his liking and he is able to tilt against it with wonderful display. The fact was that I had stated exactly the opposite of what the hon. minister said. He took his account in that case from a Globe report, written by some one who never was at the meeting at all. What I stated was reported verbatim, and there was no variation in the matter of the reports of the press representatives. I had stated in answer to a question from the audience that there was a reduction of $3,000,000, and that I would do full justice to the government. I stated there was probably reason for the reduction, because we were getting further from the war and the responsibilities were less and I made no criticism of it whatever. This is all reported in the paper that is published in the city of Windsor in the clearest language and was at the disposal of the minister. But the correct report would not have suited his powers of destructive argument. He went further. He stated that I had attacked the administration of pensions and the Pensions Board. This he drew from his own imagination. I did not criticize the administration of pensions and never mentioned the Pensions Board. I give these instances as illustrations of the habit the minister has, which I do not think he wholly got away from in his address this afternoon. They have nothing to do with the case.


William Stevens Fielding: Hear, hear.


Arthur Meighen: Yfes and the minister is
glad to get rid of this exposure, but he was very glad to use that style of argument in the county of Essex and again to-day. I do not think it befitted the minister, or the post he fills.
Now as respects the French treaty, I do not at all dispute the sincerity of the p'osition taken by the hon. member for Brandon. I think though he has come to his decision a little hurriedly, If I am to regard myself only as the leader of a party opposed to his, I would not want anything better than that his party should support this treaty. He seems to think it does not make very much difference about the treaty anyway. It is not a.matter he says of very great consequence, and we should support it, because, the minister did the very best he could. Now let us inquire into that position. In the first place, [DOT] the treaty means a loss of $500,000 a year to the revenue of Canada and that is $500,000 collected off the users of luxuries. Let us not forget that. I think $500,000 is a minimum figure, and that time will show that it is much too low, but using the figure, and placing the loss of revenue paid by those who
[Mr. Meighen.l
consume conspicuous and undoubted luxuries at $500,000, is it of no consequence to Canada? That $500,000, now has to be paid out of the pockets of the great mass of the people of Canada using the necessaries of life. There is the loss on the consumption of luxuries imported not only from France, but imported in far greater quantities in many important instances, from Switzerland, Japan, from Sweden, the Netherlands, and from, I think, in all, eleven favoured nation countries.
Switzerland, Japan, Belgium and the Netherlands, are some of the countries which now have the right to come with their goods into this country under a tax the same as in the French treaty. Wait until all this *works out, and we shall see our $500,000 loss in all probability much magnified. That will inevitably be an added tax or a failure to reduce taxes on the consumers of necessities in this Dominion. I submit- in the first place, in no strong language, this suggestion:	It is
surely incumbent upon us, before we make that sacrifice, to see that we are getting something worth while.
I want to examine the member's second argument. He says, "Well, the minister did the best he could, and we had better take it at that or France will do something still worse to * us if we do not submit to her terms in respect of this treaty now, pay what we are paying and impose the tax we are imposing on the consumers of necessities of life in Canada." Why should Canada be in this position? Is it necessary that Canada should be in the position where she has to go over to any country, go over to France, and make a treaty admittedly worse than were conditions that obtained before, just for fear France would raise her tariff? Have we reflected on why it is we are in such a position? Is Canada going to be always in such a position? I suppose, a year or so from now, if Frahce gives notice that this treaty does not suit her, the minister will go over again and France will say, "Now look here, if you do not make a treaty' and raise duties on meat exports again, on vegetable exports again, on stock and farm products again-if you do not come across and submit to these terms, we will put the duties on those goods far higher still." The minister will go over and do this, and he will come back and say:	''This is the best
I can do. If I had not done it, you would have a worse duty still." Is Canada to be continually in that humiliating and helpless position? Let us reflect why she is in it today and see where the blame lies. I do not think hon. members of any branch of this House want this country to be in such a

French Treaty
position continuously. Assuming that we do not, what is the reason that the minister was in it? The minister was in it just because of his own fault; just because of his own election commitments in this Dominion, just because of his own professions and just because of his own failure in office. Those are the only reasons. He was not in it because of any natural conditions of trade. Trade conditions were quite the reverse. French trade with Canada is of more value to France than Canadian trade to France is of value to Canada. Their exports to us are about $13,000,000, while our exports to them are about $8,000,000. In that fact, a natural condition of trade, the minister had an advantage. Where he was at a disadvantage was his own fault. He left this country in such shape that he was handicapped in negotiations. Why was he? He was handicapped because he had gone up and down this Dominion for months making pledges .of tariff reductions here, there and everywhere, a general reduction all round, and the French statesmen knew that. Certainly they knew in France that he had been a party, although he denies this now, to tariff commitments at a convention, commitments which, if they were carried out, would be of great advantage to France, and that, whatever else might be said about the party to which he belongs, there at least was a general commitment of the majority of them for tariff revision downwards. Thus the French people knew that no matter what they threatened, the hands of this government were tied; they could not do anything. Their hands were tied by engagements which they made in order to lure the people of Canada into voting for them, commitments made to get alliances and to get into power. These commitments no one knows better than the Minister of Finance (Mr. Fielding) as he sits in front of me, were against the interests of this country. We should not be tied to general, sweeping commitments of that sort. I do not favour any high tariff and I never did. The minister does not contradict me now. Why? A year and a half ago he was calling me a high protectionist; he was crying out to get into office to reduce the "high protectionist" tariff of the late government; but he comes here now to make out a case on this treaty and he says:	"We have been a low protectionist or a low tariff country all along." Under those circumstances he never should have made the commitments he did to revise our tariff lpwer still and in so doing he stripped from his hand eveiy weapon that he could have had to negotiate with the statesmen of France.
But his fault does not end there. He knew last session that negotiations with France were going to be necessary and that France under this, treaty was entitled to negotiate. She was not entitled to any treaty with us if she was not prepared to give us a fair tariff as regards articles that we export. Under those circumstances we were not bound to make a treaty with her; we were only in honour bound to negotiate for a treaty, and we were to be the judges whether or not the offer was fair. The minister knowing that and knowing the general inclination of the French tariff upward should, before he went over to France, have placed, not the general tariff of Canada, but our tariff on luxuries, higher than it was. If he had done so, he would then have been in a position where he would not have had to bring back this abject surrender of our fiscal position to France. Our tariff on luxuries was then a comparatively low tariff for luxuries. He left it where it was. They had raised their general tariff, and he went over in that position and he did so, not because he did not think it would be in our interest to raise our tariff on luxuries under those conditions; he did it, because he had not the courage to come to this House last session in the face of his commitments, and propose any addition at all to the tariff. That is why we are in the position we are in to-day. Those are the two principal factors, the two principal faults that placed the minister in the position in which he was. I ask again: Do hon. members really think this country must continuously be in the position that France or any other nation can hold the big stick over our heads and say: "Here, though we sell you $13,000,000 worth of goods now and we buy only $8,000,000 from you, if you do not join with us to raise our tariff on stock, meats, poultry, vegetables, butter and various things which really count, chiefly agricultural products, and if you will not at the same time agree to lower yours on what we sell you, all right, we will do worse still. We will raise our tariff four times as high and you will have to stand for it all." I want to put the situation before hon. members and to ask those who have thought out this tariff subject; if you admit that we are in that position, do you think this country ought to be continuously there?. Do hon. members opposite think we should be? There is surely a tariff lesson to be learned from reflection on the experience of the Minister of Finance in France. I do not think the treaty is ,in our interests at all.
I said last night that the minister had now negotiated and obtained a higher tariff against us on the goods we sell, or can sell,
French Treaty

than existed when he went over. He managed to come back with a higher French tariff against us and a much lower Canadian tariff against France. I do ndt think the minister is an unintelligent man by any means so far as tariff matters are concerned. It was not his will that such a folly as this be perpetrated; it was simply through his fault that he had to do it. It was because of the campaign he had conducted and the commitments he had made, and because of his failure last session to have the courage to do what was in the interests of the Dominion. I do not think the minister would refuse to admit right now that under this tariff we are not in as good a condition to trade with France as we were under the temporary tariff that he has put out of effect.. Where the items are lower they are trifling; they relate merely to fanciful exports from Canada in almost every case, and in those cases where they are . not such, the export is so small and the possibility so negligible that it does not weigh at all as against the' price which the minister has paid in relation not only to the revenue of this Dominion but to the interests of the agricultural producers of this country.
I shall now make a short reference to the minister's reply to the hon. member for Lincoln (Mr. Chaplin). I do not think that I have ever seen the minister more heated in the House than he was in his reply to the hon. member. Why was he so heated? The hon. member for Lincoln had certainly made no provocative speech. His speech was merely a statement of figures from beginning to end, a statement of the conditions of our trade and the exact operation of the treaty upon those conditions. I think, however, what stirred the minister was the revelation which the hon. member made of the inherent weakness of his performance. The minister seized upon one alleged error in regard to which the hon. member for Lincoln was not in the least to blame at all, even if he was wrong; and I doubt to this moment that he was wrong. The member for Lincoln said that, among other things,-and this is only one, out of over a hundred cases he brought forward, this government had got the admission of bronze powders into France at a lower rate than before; and the hon. member pointed out that we did not export this article but on the contrary imported it. He said that he had bought it himself for forty years and had always had to import it; while the trade returift published by this government, over the signature of a minister of the same government, indicated that we exported no bronze powders. The article appears in 
the trade returns. The trade returns at page 248 show that we imported $46,000 worth last year of this article, while there are no bronze powders in the export list at all.- It may be this statement is an error, although I do not think that I have ever found the trade returns in error before. But if there is an error, well, I am not so trivial as to attribute it to the Minister of Customs (Mr. Bureau), whose signature appears as authority for * these trade returns. But such was the kind of argument the minister indulged in; he snapped back to the member for Lincoln the retort that if it did not appear in the trade returns it was the fault of the government which that hon. member supported. What does the minister mean by an answer of that kind? The trade returns are prepared by the officials.


William Stevens Fielding: The hon. member was saying that the matter was not to be found in the trade returns, to which I correctly replied that these trade returns were prepared by our predecessors. I found no fault with the returns, but when the hon. gentleman stated as a fact that something was not to be found in them I had the right to inform him that we had not prepared the returns.


Arthur Meighen: Well, for that matter, the present government did prepare the returns. They could not have been prepared until the year was out, and the year did not expire until the 31st of March, 1922, when they had been in office three months. The trade returns would be prepared on the year's results and besides they are signed by the present Minister of Customs. I know that the first, part of the work would be for a period before the minister took office, but the compilation would nevertheless be under the direction of the present Minister of Customs, who had been in office three months before the year expired. But if there was an error it would obviously be childishness for me to attribute it to the Minister of Customs or to any other member of the government; the fault would not be any minister's, no matter what government was in office. Now, here are these official returns showing no exports of this article, while they show imports amounting to $46,000; and the minister triumphantly presents a telegram, contradicting the trade returns of his government.


William Stevens Fielding: The point was this.
It was alleged that this article was not made in Canada, whereas the telegram which I read

Sup-ply-Soldiers' Settlement
to-day, and for which I am no more responsible than anyone else, simply stated that it was made here.


Arthur Meighen: I quite agree; but-


Mr. ROBB:: I wonder if the leader of the Opposition would take my word for it. I live in Valleyfield and I know the Canadian bronze powder industry carried on there. I was mayor of Valleyfield when it was established there and I know that that industry exported millions of dollars' worth of bronze powder to the British Admiralty during the war.


Arthur Meighen: I do not know whether the article is exported or not, but every member of this House has a right to rely on the trade returns; and it would have come with better grace from the minister, if he found a telegram which contradicted the trade returns, simply to have stated the fact. The hon. member for Lincoln was quite justified in using the returns. It is just possible that the bronze powders which the minister referred to are known as something else in our trade returns, and may not indeed come in under this treaty at all. I fancy that if that is not likely it is at least possible; and I venture to suggest that it is not unlikely. But of bronze powders, as known in the trade returns, we have no exports shown; we have imports. I should think that in relation to an article which we have to buy from outside to the amount of $46,000 a year, it would not be necessary for an operator in Canada to look for it in a market across the ocean if he could get it in his own country. It may be that it is the same article, and it may be-, on the other hand, that it is a different article. But in any event, whatever it is, it is [DOT] one selected out of a hundred or two hundred and presented by the hon. member for Lincoln, who was absolutely right in his facts based upon the trade returns of Canada. I do not see therefore that there was much excuse for applause and noisy ecstasies as of victory won because somebody sent a telegram conflicting with the trade returns. Now, Mr. Speaker, I think it is with the consent of the whips that I move the adjournment of the debate.


William Stevens Fielding: With a view to resuming this evening?


Arthur Meighen: That was not the understanding; but I do not wish to adjourn the debate unless the whips agree.


William Stevens Fielding: I did not think there was any arrangement with the whips.


Mr. BOYS:: I think my right hon. friend must have misunderstood me. No doubt that arrangement was made, but I went and told him that it had to be changed. My hon. friend must have overlooked what I said.


Arthur Meighen: That is right; the whip so informed me, but I understood that he was going back to discuss the matter further.


William Stevens Fielding: Would my hon. friend prefer to adjourn the debate, to resume some other time?


Arthur Meighen: Yes, but I do not wish to do so if there is any objection.


William Stevens Fielding: If the hon. gentleman desires it I offer no objection.
Motion agreed to and debate adjourned.


SOLDIERS' LAND SETTLEMENT
[Stage Direction]
The House in Committee of Supply, Mr. Marcil in the chair.
Soldiers' Land Settlement-advances to soldiers settling upon the land, and cost of administering the Soldier Settlement Act, including salaries, $8,400,000.
At six o'clock the committee took recess.
After Recess
The committee resumed at eight o'clock.
Mr. ROSS (Kingston):: What are the salaries paid to the members of the board administering the act?
Hon. CHARLES A. STEWART (Argen-teuil), (Minister of the Interior): With the exception of field supervision, which is a separate item, the amount required to pay the salaries of the staff is $500,000.


Arthur Edward Ross: What does the chairman of the board receive?


Charles A. Stewart: The chairman receives $7,000 and the other members of the board $5,000.


Arthur Edward Ross: Is the position of chairman of the board more important than that of deputy minister? What reason can the minister give for his salary being $7,000?


Charles A. Stewart: These were the salaries when I took charge. I have not changed them at all. The work is pretty much the same, although perhaps not so much is being done, but no changes have been made in these salaries since I took charge.


Arthur Meighen: Owing to the natural contraction of the work, because there are really very, very few being placed now, if any, cer-

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
tainly very few as compared with those before, is the minister effecting a corresponding reduction in the expenditure?


Charles A. Stewart: There is a reduction in the expenditure.


Arthur Meighen: Is it corresponding?


Charles A. Stewart: For purposes of comparison it might be well for me to give the figures for the last three years. The general office expense, including travelling expenses of inspectors and appraisers for 19211922 was $285,777.23; 1922-23, $200,700; for 1923-1924 estimated $180,000, Salaries exclusive of agricultural supervision for 1921-1922, $823,189.26; 1922-23, $711,600; 1923-1924, estimated $500,000. Legal expenses and disbursements, 1921-1922, $37,220.23; 1922-1923, $28,000; 1923-1924, estimated $20,000. Printing and stationery, 1921-1922, $32,022.88;	1922-1923,
$27,300; 1923-1924, estimated' $20,000. Advertising, 1921-1922, $5,190.39; 1922-1923, $3,600; 1923-1924, estimated $3,000. Miscellaneous, 1921-1922, $2,418.55; 1922-1923, $7,600; 19231924, estimated $5,000; making totals of expenditure for the three years respectively $1,185,818.54, $978,800, and $728,000. The figures for agricultural expenditure-will the totals satisfy my hon. friend?


Arthur Meighen: I think so now.


Charles A. Stewart: Agricultural expenditure including salaries, travelling expenses, motor car accessories, and home branch courses, for 1921-1922, $869,525.45; for 19221923, $695,900; for 1923-1924, estimated $672,000. Now I will give the totals of all these items; 1921-1922,	$2,055,343.99;	1922-1923,
$1,674,700; and for 1923-1924, estimated $1,400,000.


Arthur Meighen: The reduction is far from a corresponding reduction. The number of soldiers now being placed on the land is relatively negligible, but the cost is keeping up pretty well. Of course, I admit that in respect to the supervision work that would not be expected to contract very much. The minister's figures show a very small diminution from last year and the year before, but I would not criticize that. I would think that only a small diminution could be made, but I really think that as to the rest, the amount of machinery and the expenditure of the organization is away beyond the actual work being performed. It would seem to me that way. Could I get these particulars, for example? The minister gave the figures for legal costs. They seem to be keeping up magnificently. Could the minister tell us how many loans were made on land in 1922-1923,

and the cost per loan, also how many were made on land, say, in the year 1919-1920, and the cost per loan? I was in charge at that time, and I know we made very stringent rules as to legal costs.


Charles A. Stewart: The explanation that I get for the legal fees is that this seems to be a sort of continuing business ; that is it is not cleaned up in the years in which the men are established but goes on from year to year. I am informed that some of the legal business even of 1919 is stili unfinished in that respect.
In answer to my right hon. friend's criticism as to reductions in the staff I may say that one could expect that there would be a reasonable reduction in the inside staff.
In so far as the outside inspection is concerned, however, I am rather of the opinion that until these settlers are firmly established they will require supervision. It would not be good business because of the mere fact that you are not settling very many men to reduce the field inspectors or the officers who are supervising the work of these men.


Arthur Meighen: I admit that.


Charles A. Stewart: I think that is the strongest feature of the whole scheme. Indeed, I would go as far as to say that if these men were withdrawn we would perhaps have a great many more salvage cases than we otherwise would have. On the other hand, in making inquiry from the board with respect to the probable cost of carrying on the soldier settlement work-that is provided we could reduce the field staff, the agricul * tural staff, or the inspectional staff almost -to -a minimum-I am informed that the cost of collections and of the general work of the staff necessary to carry on the salvage work, and of their salaries, will amount. to a very considerable sum. In all probability it will take more than half a million dollars annually to carry it along. That may seem to be rather a large figure for that kind of work, but there is jjot any doubt that a very large amount of salvage work is required in connection with carrying out this scheme. That is very evident now, although an adjustment last year has had the effect of reducing it very materially. I think I have the figures in that connection. I do not think, however, it will be possible to make a success of this work by making a very serious reduction in the -inspectional staff, or a reduction beyond a reasonable number for the carrying out of the scheme in its entirety until such times, at least, as these men have more than half

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
paid up the loans they received from the government.


Arthur Meighen: In what I said before T admitted what the minister had said that the supervisory work-which, as he well remarks is one of the best features of the whole plan- cannot be contracted proportionately at all to the contraction of the placing of men. Indeed, I do not think it can be done very rapidly at all. I fancy that it would be bad policy to look for a rapid reduction in the staff of professors, collectors, and instructors, but what I had reference to were other expenses. For example, I could not understand why now-as against two or three years ago when we were placing at the rate of 10,090 men a year on the land and the legal expenses were under some 830,000-when we are placing almost none those expenses still keep up to about 820,000. That did not seem reasonable to me. The minister is informed that the legal fees drag on. Well, they will if they are allowed to. For the life of me I do not know why they should.


George Perry Graham: That is the bad feature of the legal business.


Arthur Meighen: Yes, and there is need for control by a strong hand. As to the loans that were made in 1919-20 there would not b -a loan made until the title was passed. It is true that the matter might drag until this year but it would not be in the 1919-20 loans; it would be in the loans this year. The loans would not be made until the title was passed. There might be cause why the title could not be passed and it might drag on to this year, but that would not be counted in the loans for 1919-20. I think we had a comparison of the cost per loan in 1919-20. We had it figured out and it was all, I think, given to the House; it was very low indeed. I would like to see if it is the same for last year, when probably another class of lawyers got in and handled the soldier settlement work.
While I am on my feet I wish to express gratification at the results considering all the conditions under which this work has been conducted. The whole soldier settlement scheme encountered just about as heavy obstacles as any plan ever launched by the administration encountered. No one, who was not through it, can realize fully the pressure that was brought upon the government after the return of those hundreds of thousands of men-pressure for one form of enterprise one day, another form of enterprise the next; very heavy pressure for entering upon a scheme of land purchase and loans for the purpose of colonizing the returned

soldiers. It was indeed a dangerous enterprise; there was risk at every comer. I do not think any government launched anything in which it was more difficult to select sound and true lines in order to avoid error-I had almost said at a thousand points-in entering upon that work. It encountered a diminution in land values. That is, perhaps, the biggest obstacle the work has faced. Well, it has gone through that. Concessions had to be made because of that-concessions made a year ago which I think were right. They were very simple; they merely meant a grant out of the treasury, that was all; it was not a very great one. But when we consider that obstacle, when we consider as well, and associated with it, the lowering of farm prices not accompanied by any lowering of farm costs proportionately-when we consider that while the soldier settlement scheme, a new scheme, has to be made to go while farming, in general becomes more and more a matter of standing still, of loss rather than of gain, and that through it all this scheme survives to a very satisfactory degree of success, I think it indeed reflects credit on those who worked it out; and I am not saying this without mentioning the man who chiefly did it. The loans were mainly devised by Dr. Black, now the minister's deputy for the Department of Immigration; and the soundness of the policies adopted, the various safeguards instituted, and the strong features that have saved it through these very difficult years, are attributable to the good judgment of Dr. Black. Now, I merely say that had the years been even years -that is to say had conditions been normal; when we put in the work we could not wait, we had to do it then, there was no option on our part-had they remained the same in the matter of land value, in the matter of farm sale prices, and farm purchase prices, then unquestionably the whole soldier settlement organization to-day, and the men who have been placed on land under it, would be a very pronounced success. At the present time I think it can be said that the soldier farmer, taking all things into consideration, is in a better position relative to that in which he was when he started than the other farmer relative to the position he was in at the same time. I do not think there is any dispute about that. Consequently the scheme has been a success, and if we have an improvement in time, which I look for myself, then the whole advantage that this country has any right to expect will be harvested. I only hope I can get the figures of the cost, because I would like to be sure that it is being run on the same economic

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement

principle and being watched as carefully as it was some years ago.


Charles A. Stewart: With regard to the legal part, I think perhaps my hon. friend is expecting too much of a reduction in the legal costs, owing to the fact that we were not establishing as many men as we were in the years he speaks of. The legal officers are on salary. This applies to Ontario, Quebec and the eastern provinces, but not to the West, and there is a considerable amount of salvage. True there is perhaps not a great amount of legal fees involved in the matter, still there are bound to be more or less legal costs, and the board must protect themselves against any action that might be taken against them for various causes. I can only assure my hon. friend that we will exercise the utmost caution in connection *with these fees that are paid to solicitors. The chairman informs me that exactly the same fees are being paid as were paid formerly.


Arthur Meighen: The same scale?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes, same scale.


Arthur Meighen: I have every confidence in the chairman. He has been a lawyer himself, and could not be imposed on unless he comes under the malign influences of party favoritism.


Charles A. Stewart: Having had considerable experience in farming, I am not unmindful of the fact that in establishing a soldier upon the land, making the loans that have been made and will no doubt be made in the future, considerable care will have to be exercised to keep out of difficulty, and I am of the opinion that due care should be exercised in connection with every loan made, as well as due care exercised when salvage cases occur, and they are occurring to a considerable extent. But I will tell my hon. friend that I do not want to be criticized by him, and I am willing to give him and the Conservative party full credit for instituting the establishment of the soldiers upon the land. I do not want to interfere in any way with the scheme, and I wish to assure him that I think the board to a man would be prepared to say that in no way have I myself interfered, or permitted anyone else to interfere, with the settlement of a single man or made any suggestion in regard to it. I have not interfered in any way. I have simply allowed the board to carry on as they have been doing in the past. In other words, I have left it entirely to the discretion of the board in dealing with these cases.


Mr. HANSON:: Who selects the legal men in the various provinces?


Charles A. Stewart: The Justice department I am told have made those appointments and that has been the rule, but the fees that are paid are taxed by the members of the Soldiers' Settlement Board, and adjustments made if necesary.


Richard Burpee Hanson: Then the patronage system is still in force in this department, as in other departments?


George Perry Graham: Being continued.


Charles A. Stewart: I have no
knowledge of any change, if it was patronage. I wish to assure my hon. friend that I did not know there was any change, and I do not know of any change in the method of selection.


Mr. MANION:: I was very pleased to hear the minister state the policy has not been changed in any shape or form. That is a compliment to my right hon. leader who really originated the scheme, or, at least, as minister put it into effect. I should like to have the minister make some statement as to the general condition of the soldiers now on the land. When the question was before the House last year we discussed the conditions at some length. I well remember that the hon. member for Red Deer (Mr. Speakman) described the very serious condition of men in the prairie provinces who were put on the land, and I think it might be well for the minister to give us some idea of the number of men now on the land, as compared with, say, a couple of years ago, and as to their general conditions, of prosperity or the reverse, because I am sure not only the House but the country generally is interested in the question of the soldier settlement scheme as a whole.


Charles A. Stewart: I, perhaps, cannot answer my hon. friend any better than to give him the comparative statement of the financial condition as it appears by our returns. I will be unable to give my hon. friend a statement as to the actual conditions on the land in comparison with a year ago or two years ago.


Robert James Manion: The minister can tell the condition by the number who wish to get out of the contract which they made. In that way we will be able to get a very good idea as to how they are doing.


Charles A. Stewart: I will give my hon. friend the report of salvages but I wanted first to give the collections because they are a pretty fair indication of how the

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
men are progressing. The date of last year's report is April 14th, 1922, and this statement I have before me is from October to April in both years. I am quoting this year's report as against that of last year. Last year the collection was $1,537,158.88 or 37.7 per cent of the amount due. This year, 1923, for the same period, the total is $1,662,778.99, or 55.6 per cent of the amount due. Therefore we have an increase of 37.7 per cent to 55.6 per cent for the same period, which is the heavy collection period.


Robert James Manion: I would take it that, from the financial statement the minister would probably say that conditions of men on the land are improving. Is that not correct?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes. Still, if you take certain areas in Canada, for instance the northern portion of Alberta, while that was fairly prosperous last year, their returns do not show up as well. But the totals, taking Canada as a whole, show that conditions are improving. This is a statement of the totals. No doubt hon. gentlemen will say that the statement does not show up as well as the statement of last year; but as a matter of fact, that is the complete statement.


Mr. BANCROFT:: Will the reductions in payments this year make some difference in those percentages?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes, that is true.


Mr. MILLAR:: It must be remembered
that, as was to be expected, some returned soldiers were placed on land where they could not succeed, but not through any fault of their own. Take those soldiers and others who had a better chance and who still did not succeed, that is all the class of salvaged soldiers. After they have left their land, what is the policy of the government as regards the debt? I find some of these returned soldiers, after they have been salvaged, are in fear and trembling lest when they start to work elsewhere, their salaries or wages will be garnisheed. I find it is in the contract that they are liable; but in talking with some of the officials of the department, I have heard them say that this debt could not be collected. If it cannot be collected, would it not be wise to cancel the debt entirely and thus free those men from that fear?


Charles A. Stewart: The chairman assures me that no man has been pressed for the deficit that may in some cases accrue. In most of the cases upon which I pass, or where salvage has taken place and the resale
of the property has been completed, there is sufficient to cover all the advances made by the board. But there are, of course, and will be a large number of instances in which that will not be the case, in which even after salvage has taken place, the individual will still be a debtor to the government. I would not like to say that in cases where fraud has taken place, we would not pursue; but speaking personally, I would not want to pursue a man who had done his best, but who had made a failure. I do not think that would be a proper thing to do.


John Millar: Could the minister say positively that in no case any of this debt had been repaid by such returned soldiers? I am not positive; but I think I have heard of at least one case where some part of this debt has been repaid. Again, can we take it from the minister that in every case where a returned soldier has tried to do his best, it will be the policy from now on that he will not be pursued for a return of that debt?


Charles A. Stewart: I presume, as long as a man is liable, the act would make it possible to endeavour to collect, if he were able to pay and if it were wise to endeavour to collect. I am simply making the statement personally that unless a man deliberately committed a fraud, if he had made an honest effort and had made a failure, I think it would be very unwise to pursue him for a debt he might owe in that connection.


Mr. LEWIS:: I should like to ask the minister a question regarding the authority of the supervisors in certain connections. What are the instructions as regards possessing or repossessing a crop? The reason I am asking this question is because certain supervisors have been in my district, for instance, and they have been dictating to these men what debts they shall contract in regard to living. Moreover, I find that on certain farms, they actually possess practically the whole of the crop, with the direct result that these men are not able to pay any store bills. In my particular district, there are three or four returned soldiers who have incurred debts to the local stores, and when they have gone to pay them, they have found that the Soldiers' Settlement Board have taken all the crop and that they cannot pay these debts. The result is that these men are simply getting off the land, not because they feel that they cannot make it pay, but because it is impossible for them to get any more goods at the local stores.
Supply-Soldiers' Settlement


Charles A. Stewart: I had the
same opinion as my hon. friend that, perhaps, there was over-supervision; but one must remember that pretty generous loans were made to these men. I will say very frankly, I think too generous loans were made. That, however, was the judgment of the people who were in charge at that time. 1 am not criticizing that; but I am saying that this increases the responsibilities and it naturally must increase the supervision, because if a man is lent, say, $5,000 or in that vicinity, I mean his total loan, on a quarter section of land, I think a farmer would call that a rather risky loan. Therefore, supervision must play a very important part. That is why I say I think it is important that supervision should continue; and if it appears at times to be of a character that is burdensome, interfering too much even in the home life of the settler, perhaps, after all, in many cases this is for. his good. Instructions, however, are given to the inspectors to use their best judgment. The board inform me that they have had a good many men pass through their hands, and they have now after their experience chosen the men who have shown the better judgment and discretion in dealing with matters of this kind. I have heard the statement made that a settler could not sell a pig; that he could do nothing without the consent of the inspector. We must bear in mind that where a considerable amount of risk is involved in a loan, fairly rigid supervision is necessary.


Arthur John Lewis: I am not objecting to the
fairly rigid supervision; but if the supervisor comes and takes all a settler has, you simply force the man out of existence, so that he cannot remain on the land. I can give two instances in my district where they took everything, -when a man had incurred a debt of three or four hundred dollars. I am informed this year from home that the man has removed from the land simply because he cannot live.


Charles A. Stewart: (Argenteuil):	It must
be remembered that there are 22,000 loans. I do not wish it to be understood that I hold any brief for the inspectors. I would rather encourage reasonable judgment being exercised in connection with all these matters; but undoubtedly there wall still be men whom it will be impossible to continue who perhaps are disregarding every advice given by the inspectors, and who find themselves in a serious condition which jeopardizes the loan as well.


Arthur John Lewis: Of course I would say that
the crop in that district was not a heavy one,
I Mr. Lewis.]
and the total crop would possibly not more than pay the interest.


Miss MACPHAIL:: I think I have heard
from possibly 400 or 450 of the soldier land settlers in Ontario. Of that vast number I do not think there were more than half a dozen who had any criticism at all to offer concerning the Soldiers' Settlement Board or the work of supervision. It has indeed been very pleasing and encouraging to hear the very hearty approval of the supervisors which the soldiers and their wives in many cases have expressed. While some did say that they rather chafed under the supervision, they felt that the government were only doing what they must do in view of the large amount of money that has been put up, sometimes without any very great security.


Mr. SPEAKMAN:: I should like to know whether the conditions portrayed by the member for Swift Current (Mr. Lewis) prevail to any extent now in regard to the settlers who are unable to pay their store bills. We know that this- condition prevailed very largely two years ago, but that was precisely one of the disadvantges which we had hoped to meet by the amendments passed last session when we took the accrued interest and subsidiary loans and consolidated them afresh in a new loan, thus relieving the men of immediate payments. I do not think that the condition the hon. member refers to can be widespread at the present time, because there is practically nothing new save the small first payments. This condition must be considerably relieved since last year.


Charles A. Stewart: Soldiers are only human, like other people in Canada, and there will always be individuals among them who will be improvident, get into debt and run up heavy bills, always of course against the advice of the supervisors. There can be no question about that, and that is one of the things which the supervisors endeavour to keep the settlers from doing. Perhaps they persist in doing it, however, and when adjustment day comes it is quite likely that they feel they are being hardly used. I can quite understand that; but in answer to my hon. friend I would say that so far as I know the condition mentioned has been reduced to the minimum.


Arthur Meighen: Is the minister doing any advertising now for the board?


Charles A. Stewart: We have almost ceased to advertise; I believe we are advertising in the veteran papers only.

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement


Arthur Meighen: I have no particular objection to advertising, but I might observe that we did cease it altogether some years ago, because there seemed no need for it; the facts and all the features of the policy were known. What was done years ago was to put in the Veteran and other papers-very few-a mere succinct statement of what the law provided in order that fit men might apply to come in and benefit thereby. But we stopped advertising. The minister, however, revived it, and the reason I became a little doubtful as to what influences were at work was the character of the advertising that he had adopted. It was indeed a remarkable advertisement I saw in one of the papers in which he advertises; this particular advertisement was not of the nature of those inserted when the work was first started, namely, a mere statement of the facts. This was the character of it. In the middle of the page was a letter from a veteran telling how much better tilings were now; he did not have as much to pay this year on account of the legislation of last session, which he used special language to describe; consequently, he was thoroughly well satisfied. Then an explanation was given, at the bottom, of what had ' brought all this about; it was all due to last session's legislation of the present government. In a word, the minister was spending public money to insert a political advertisement, for it was nothing more, because it had nothing whatever to do with the work of the Soldiers' Settlement Board. The advertisement was in a veteran paper which I have filed. There is no question about it; I remember it distinctly, for I was astonished at the character of the advertisement the minister was sending out. It was merely a method of using public money to give political eclat to the government.


Charles A. Stewart: Let me assure my hon. friend that this is the first intimation I have had of the letter in question: I did not see it. There has been no increase in advertising in the veteran newspapers or elsewhere. The advertising never ceased; it is just the same as when my right hon. friend had charge of the organization.


Arthur Meighen: No.


Charles A. Stewart: That is the information I get from the chairman of the board. However, suffice it to say that I have never interfered with the advertising. I want my hon. friend to understand that it is my desire to have this work carried on just as he started it; I want to carry it out in every
detail just as the hon. gentleman originated it. I want to carry it on as economically as I can, and when the time comes that we should curtail expenditure with respect to it I shall be glad to do so. I do not, however, want to be criticized for having interjected into the scheme anything that might interfere with its success; and I have never done so. I have every confidence in the board and I never suggested any advertisement to them. I never knew of this particular advertisement, never solicited it and will not do anything of the kind at any time. I want to give the scheme every chance to succeed, and I can assure my hon. friend that I have no desire to take any political kudos out of it. The hon. gentleman is welcome to it all.


Arthur Meighen: I was not seeking any credit whatever in the matter. I accept the minister's word that he did not father the advertisement, but I am curious to know who did. There must be someone who is attending to that phase of the operations. The minister is wrong, though, when he says that he is merely continuing what wre did in respect of advertising. I cannot say what took place after I left office, but I am quite sure from memory that we ceased advertising. That, however, is not what I object to, if the minister feels that some good can be done by merely letting the returned soldier know what is available for him. If he thinks that advertising of that character should be revived, very good; and the veteran papers would be the ones to use. But I certainly do know that to utilise advertising space at the public expense for the character of advertisement I saw is wrong, no matter who is responsible for it. I take the minister's word that he is not.


Mr. KNOX:: I rise to add my word of commendation to what was said by the hon. member for Southeast Grey (Miss Mac-phail). I have been keeping close watch on the operations of the soldier land settlement scheme ever since its inception and I can heartily commend the working out of the operations of the board so far as I have observed them. I do not view this matter from the political standpoint at all, nor from the standpoint of those who originated the scheme; nor am I looking at it from the point of view of those who are at present carrying it on. I am speaking entirely from the standpoint of the observer who has been watching it closely, and I can speak particularly of the work done in my own district of Prince Albert in Saskatchewan. I have visited these men in



Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
their homes, and have been in all corners of that district where they are established. I might give a few figures I have compiled in reference to the men who have been established there and also show the extent to which salvages have occurred. In that district 2,335 applications were made to the qualification board. Of this number 1,800 were passed as qualified, or practically 77 per cent. Some of those disqualified have gone into training; that is to say, they are working for fanners in the district with the intention, which will no doubt be afterwards carried out, of again coming under the qualification board and being passed and established on the land. There have been established some 1,509 soldier settlers, of which number 136 or 8 per cent have since been salvaged. That percentage is very small indeed as compared with the number of failures which may have occurred with the original homesteaders, men who went on the land and tried to establish themselves independently, and long before the organization of the Soldiers' Settlement Board. On the first of October last there were 1,281 with payments due. Of these 624 have since met their payments in full. I think that is a very good showing. Three hundred have made them in part. In spite of the fact that last year not very much money was made on the farms, indeed a great many farmers who were thoroughly established previously went behind, we find that these men under proper supervision have done particularly well. The applications in hand for the present year show that at least 150 new settlers will be established in this district. I would point out that this is entirely independent of the number who may be brought over from the British Isles by Major Ashton. These one hundred and fifty men made application on the spot and are likely to be established. The payments this year stand at 55.1 per cent of the amounts due; but there have also been pre-payments made that is to say payments not yet due, sufficient to bring that percentage up to 61.8 per cent. Considering these figures, and remembering what I have seen of the supervision exercised by the inspectors, as I said before, I wish to add my word of commendation. The project is working out particularly satisfactory, and I think it should get every assistance that we can give it.


Mr. GARDINER:: I should like to call the minister's attention to one point in regard to the soldier land settlement scheme. Many of the soldiers when they returned already possessed land, but in order to get re-established they made application to the Soldiers' Settlement Board for loans to buy stock and imple-

ments. I understand that the board took security for these loans on practically everything the soldiers had, irrespective of the amount advanced. In many cases this has placed the borrowers in the unfortunate position of not being able to do business with their local stores, implement dealers and banks.
I have come across a few cases where the amount of security is out of all proportion to the amount loaned. I agree that the board should get adequate security for repayment of the loans made, but thus protected I think the board should be content and should release the balance of the security in order that the soldier settlers concerned can do business along the ordinary lines usual in farming communities. Having all their security tied up with the board these men cannot function as they should.


Mr. KELLNER:: 
Charles A. Stewart: The reason for the delay in replying to the hon. gentleman's question in respect to taxation is that I wanted to be sure of my ground with regard not only to municipalities in his province but elsewhere. The Justice department has advised me to the effect that where lands are held by the Crown parliament has no authority to pay or guarantee taxes to the municipalities, crown lands being immune from taxation. So the matter would require readjustment and I am so informing the municipal authorities who have written me in connection with it. This government has no control over the collection of taxes from the man who is on the land, and can do nothing towards assisting him in their payment. I am speaking more
10 p.m. particularly of lands salvaged and returned to the control of the Dominion government. I admit frankly that it is a hardship, and I sought for some way to assist the municipalities, but that is the answer I have received, and I am giving it to the committee in order that hon. members may convey it to the parties interested.
With respect to my hon. friend's suggestion that we might abandon inspection, I must say that I do not agree with him, and I so stated at the beginning of my remarks this evening. I believe the success of this undertaking depends largely upon the inspection that is exercised over our soldier settlers. I do not mean to say that it should be of a kind that would be arduous upon the settler, but I do think that- this inspection and advice that is given to the settler when the inspector visits him is a feature that can be commended. I did not know until informed by my hon. friend that they were there every morning when the hens laid. That is news to me. However, if such is the case, it only speaks more highly of the very efficient manner in which these men are doing their duty.


George Perry Graham: It speaks well for the hens too.


Alfred Speakman: I would like to say just a word about the way in which the soldier settlement scheme is working out in . my part of the country and in some other parts with which I am perhaps somewhat familiar. For some time I have taken a good deal of interest in the working of this board, and I have had an opportunity of meeting a good many returned men who are working under the provisions of the act. I know, and no one who comes from our part of the country but must know, that conditions among the soldier settlers are very hard in those parts, but I am not attributing that to the regulations of the Soldiers' Settlement Board or to the act under which they are working, or to the method under which the act is earned out. The condition of the soldier settler to my mind reflects the condition of agriculture as a whole in that part of the country, and if the conditions of agriculture as a whole are bad, as they are. the condition of the soldier settler will be bad also. But that can hardly be laid at the door of the board or of the scheme itself. I think that differentiation ought to be made. My own impression is that on the whole the soldier settlers are doing remarkably well considering all the circumstances. [DOT] We have to remember this, even when we compare them with other farmers who are in debt, that the soldier settler is more heavily indebted than the average civilian farmer. He has the advantage of better terms,'lower rates of interest, but on the other hand he owes practically 100 per cent, and in some cases over, of the value of his property. So he has a larger percentage of debt as a rule.	.
I was gratified to some extent to see that the percentage of collections had risen during the past year. I expected that of course due to the fact as has been stated that the total amount called for was much smaller, but what was much more significant was the fact that the actual amount realized was greater than last year. To my mind that carries far more significance than the percentage itself. How was that done? I do not believe it was done because the men themselves were making more money, because I do not believe they were. They could not make any more money than the farmers around them made during the last year. But I do believe this. It was due in part at least to the greater heart and the better spirit with which a great many of these men went at their work after some of the amendments that were made to the act last year. I am not speaking for political purposes at all. As a matter of fact, I have
Supply-Soldiers' Settlement

read a number of letters similar to the one mentioned by the right hon. leader of the Opposition, which did not attribute the entire credit to the Liberal government, but the fact remains that the effect of these amendments was somewhat belittled, I think, in saying that it was just a slight grant from the Treasury Board. It did not really take the form of a grant at all. What was done as far as the relinquishment of money was concerned was the cancellation of some $12,000,000 of interest due in the next four years. It was not money paid out by the Treasury Board as a grant, but money coming to the board by way of interest which was cancelled. That is something different from a grant. But more than that, I believe that a different principle was established in the loaning of money. We found, and I think any hon. member who followed the work last year and from his own experience at home knows that the'principle of having the heavier payments come due during the first years of a man's settlement, due to the short term for live stock and the long term for the land, was not a safe principle, and in my opinion not a right principle, because it is in the first years that a man finds it most difficult to make his payments. Parliament therefore tried to establish the principle of making the easy payments come first and the harder ones towards the end, when the settler would be more properly settled on the land.
I simply rose to mention these two points. One was to explain a little more closely what had been done, and the second was to draw that distinction between the conditions under which all agriculture was suffering and the conditions which were due to the Soldiers' Settlement Board itself. I can say in all fairness, as a somewhat disinterested though not uninterested observer, that I believed the act is working out fairly well, that the work is carried on fairly efficiently by the men employed, and that on the whole a very fair spirit exists among the returned soldier settlers towards the board under which they work and the officials with whom they come in contact.


Agnes Campbell Macphail: I do not want to be misunderstood. Like the hon. member who has just taken his seat, it was the working of the board of which I was speaking, and not of the wisdom of' the act itself. I believe it is much too soon to say whether the land settlement scheme for soldiers has proved to be a success or not. It may prove to be; it may not. This is true. It came at a time when it was exceedingly hard for people

going on the land. I notice in many of the letters I have received that the men who have made the fewest payments are the most optimistic about the scheme and those who have paid the most are the most pessimistic. That struck as being an odd thing. But we should give praise where praise is due, and I think that the Soldiers' Settlement Board, taking them in the large, have been very kind and considerate, and those who went to visit the soldiers on the land must have done so in a humane and kindly way since the expression of opinion regarding them is so unanimous.
I rise to ask the minister if it would be possible to have the settlers in Ontario, for instance, make their payments in the spring instead of in the fall. In grain growing provinces, such as in the middle West, to pay all debts in the fall when the grain is to be sold works out very nicely, but not in' Ontario where in the fall there is very little to sell. Besides that, there are debts coming due which would take what little the soldier settlers have to sell. Possibly a couple of hundred -who answered me asked for that change to be made; at least, they said it would mean a great deal to them if they could pay their debts in the spring instead of in the fall, because under the present method they were forced to sell their grain which they wanted to feed. I do not know whether it would be possible for the minister to make the change. I know it is difficult to have one method apply in one province and another in another province, but they do ask me to express that wish for them.


Charles A. Stewart: I may say in reply to the hon. member that in cases where the settler is desirous of feeding his grain to stock it has been the custom to defer the payment. The question of a general setting back of payments has always been more or less a contentious one. I know that it has been a contentious matter even in the West because it has been felt that the farmers have been forced to sell their produce at a time when it was perhaps inconvenient, and that it would be better to defer payments, but unfortunately no one has taken the lead in the matter particularly, and until all are agreed to delay payments there is always the fear of the first creditor getting away with the bulk of the crop and leaving all the others in the lurch. Therefore, payments are usually all set for one period. I might say, however, that where the soldier desires to feed his grain to stock rather than market it in order to pay his

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
'debts, we will be very glad to extend the time in cases of that kind whenever application is made.


Donald Ferdinand Kellner: The minister answered
my question in regard to the gathering of eggs but he missed the other one. He did not tell me whether the receipts were sufficient to pay the administration costs of the board, and I suppose that would include capital expenditure and depreciation. I would like to make another remark as to the payment of these taxes. The minister tells us that according to the information which the Department of Justice has given him the government cannot make the payment. In that case I would like to submit that possibly they could make a grant to the school district. The only alternative to the government not pursuing either course would be to close the schools. I do not think this government would regard that with favour, at least I hope not.	-


Charles A. Stewart: I can answer one of my hon. friend's questions. He asked whether we were getting any money in to pay the cost of administration. The cost of administration is estimated to be SI,400,000 and we have collected already over $1,600,000. I am informed that the collections are coming in at the rate of $40,000 each two weeks.


Robert Forke: It seems to me it is rather n. strange statement the minister made, that it is not within the power of this parliament to pay taxes on land that was patented before it. came into the hands of the soldier settler and then was abandoned. Does the minister say that parliament has no power to make any provision of that sort?


Charles A. Stewart: That is the opinion of the Department of Justice with respect to any land. No difference is made once the land becomes the property of the Crown.


Robert Forke: It would require an amendment of the British North America Act to make such provision?


Charles A. Stewart: Apparently; that is the answer I get.


Robert Forke: It seems a funny thing.


Arthur John Lewis: Did I understand the minister to say the cost of administration and supervision was $1,400,000?


Charles A. Stewart: Th'at is for this year.


Arthur John Lewis: And the amount collected was $1,600,000? ,


Charles A. Stewart: That is what we have collected already this year.


Arthur John Lewis: It would seem that the cost of administration and supervision was almost equal to the amount collected, taking the salvage cases into consideration. It would seem to me to be far better to cancel the whole debt altogether than to spend money that way and take it out of the soldier on the land.


Donald Ferdinand Kellner: In view of the minister's statement as to the cost of administration, and keeping in mind the interest charges, if I am right in supposing that the loans amounted to somewhere in the neighbourhood of $100,000,000, there must be some depreciation in capital expenditure in view of the large number of farms that have been abandoned.


Robert James Manion: I would like to get a little more information from the minister; I do not think he quite understood one of my questions. Could he give the number of soldier settlers in the different provinces,, and also, if possible, the number that have had to be salvaged? I would like the figures for this year and also for the past year.


Charles A. Stewart: The figures are as follows:
Province-	Adjustments
British Columbia	 490
Alberta	 944
Saskatchewan	 549
Manitoba	 575
Ontario	 234
Quebec	  135
New Brunswick	 101
Nova Scotia	   53
Prince Edward Island	   53
3,134
The number of cases completed is 906, and the number pending 2,228.


Robert James Manion: I do not quite follow the minister. I take it that "adjustments" are salvage cases, are they?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes.


Robert James Manion: Would the minister give the total number of soldier settlers in each of the provinces so as to distinguish between those men and the number who have been "adjusted," as* the minister expresses it, or salvaged, for the past year? I would also like the figures for the previous year, just as a matter of comparison in order to ascertain how the men are doing on the land.


Charles A. Stewart: I can give my hon. friend the number settled in each province.

Robert James Manion: That will do.


Charles A. Stewart: The total number settled under the act-[DOT]


Robert James Manion: May I suggest to the minister that if he would first give the total number settled under the act in each province, and immediately follow that with the number of salvaged cases, it would be a little more convenient for us.
Mr. -STEWART (Argenteuil): There are two kinds of settlers. There are a few without loans. I will give my hon. friend the number of settlers who have received loans in each province, and follow it with the number of salvage cases in each case.

Arthur John Lewis: Is that the number of salvage cases from the time they were first settled?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes.
Mr.iEWIS: As a rule do the salvage cases pay back the expense of salvage and the original loan, or not?


Charles A. Stewart: I mentioned a short time ago that out of the total number about one-third of them have been completed and they do not in all cases cover the entire loan.


Arthur John Lewis: Can you tell me the total indebtedness of the soldiers to the board, taking the whole range, outstanding at the present time?


Charles A. Stewart: The total amount loaned was S94,993,421.38.


Mr. KENNEDY (Edmonton):: In the case of lands that have come into the possession of the board, through salvage or otherwise, what steps have been taken to dispose of them? In any case are they being held for a rise in price?


Charles A. Stewart: No; they are open for sale from the moment they come into the hands of the board. Of course, in every case an endeavour is made to secure, at least, the amount against the property. Sometimes the proceedings are delayed on that ac-

count. In some cases we have accepted less than the amount owing against the particular' property in question.


Andrew Knox: Is any effort made to have returned men placed on these lands?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes, where-ever it is possible to do so an endeavour is made to get returned men on this land. In a few cases where men were liable to get into difficulty, others stepped into their shoes and prevented salvage cases occurring; indeed where salvages had already taken place this occurred.


Mr. STEWART (Leeds):: How many
settlers were placed on the land during 1922.


Charles A. Stewart: 1,359 new settlers.


Robert James Manion: How- much longer is permission to be given to the returned soldiers to settle on the land? I presume there is some specified plan, and that it is not for an indefinite time.


Charles A. Stewart: I have discussed that matter with the board. It was rather a difficult thing to decide when we ought to cease receiving applications and settling men upon the land. I may say frankly I have a feeling that perhaps all the men who wish to avail themselves of this settlement scheme have pretty well made application. I think those figures will give the committee an idea. The total number of returned soldiers who have been qualified by the board up to January 1923, is 46,692. These men passed the board and were qualified to get loans, if they were desirous of accepting them. The loans granted to January 31st were 22,222, so that there were 24,000 who really qualified who did not avail themselves of the opportunity. There are at present m training 532 ex-imperials, Those who completed training and have not taken up land number 774. So that, aside from the men who drifted out after qualifying and did not settle on the land, we still have 1,276. One w-ould expect a fair number of them, at least, to appl3r for settlement.


Robert James Manion: Out of the 22,000, would the minister tell us how many took up land in each of the years since the beginning I would like to know how they are diminishing at the present time.


Charles A. Stewart: I have not the number of settlers, but the actual amount expended will give a fair indication. I have

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
not the number of men established opposite the amount of money. The amount of money expended in loans was:
Year

1919-	20,

lhat would give mj' hon. friend a fair indication of it.


Robert King Anderson: Is the office in Toronto supervising the whole of Ontario? Are there other offices besides the Toronto one for the enforcement of the land settlement scheme?


Charles A. Stewart: No, Toronto is the only general office for this work in Ontario. They do not report directly to Toronto, but the office is in Toronto.


Robert Gardiner: When the Minister of Agriculture (Mr. Motherwell) had his estimates before the House he told us about the fine condition of agriculture in the province of Quebec. I noticed by the report of the minister to-night that, out of 459 grants made in Quebec, there have been 135 cases of salvage which is over one-third of the number of loans made in the province of Quebec. Can the minister tell this committee, in view of the splendid conditions obtaining in Quebec, according to the Minister of Agriculture, why there are so many salvages in that province?


Charles A. Stewart: I am afraid I cannot answer the double-barrelled question.


Robert Gardiner: Try and answer the single-barrelled one.


Charles A. Stewart: No, I could not give that information. I have no knowledge as to just what brought about the salvage cases in Quebec, or indeed in any of the other provinces.


Robert Gardiner: Would there be any possibility of getting that information from the Minister of Agriculture?


Robert King Anderson: What was the cost of the Toronto office for 1921-22?


Charles A. Stewart: I can give my hon. friend the total cost in Ontario, which would include the field supervisors and the whole staff of the Toronto office. This is taken from the salary list so that it would include all costs at Toronto. The amount is $70,940.


Robert King Anderson: How many officials does that include?
*For corrected statement see page 2207.


Charles A. Stewart: Forty-six all told.


Robert King Anderson: How many supervisors are in that number?


Charles A. Stewart: Fourteen supervisors in Ontario. That was the situation on the first of January, and there are still fourteen.


Robert King Anderson: Has the minister the
figures for the year before as well? I want-to make a comparison. Is the figure the same for the year before?


Charles A. Stewart: We have not last year's figures here.


Robert James Manion: Has there been a decrease or a marked decrease in the expenses?


Charles A. Stewart: The decrease m cost of field supervision this year will be $14,700, so that we are reducing expenditure. I may say frankly, I do not think we should reduce'materially the inspection work of the board, because that, after all, is the important work if we are to do our best by the soldiers on the land.


Robert James Manion: I quite agree with the minister in that regard. But as regards office staff, legal expenses and that sort of thing, since the expenditures of the department are going down and as this probably means a considerable decrease in a number of applications for settlement on the land, the general expenses, aside from the inspection work, should also decrease. I was wondering if there was any decrease at the present time.


Robert King Anderson: I notice that out of 1.759 soldier settlers in Ontario, 234 gave up their holdings. What was the amount of the holdings, and what was the loss in Ontario, if any, to the government?


Charles A. Stewart: It would be almost impossible to give that, because many of these cases are not completed, and it would be difficult to ascertain the estimated loss or actual cost while cases are still pending completion. My hon. friend will remember that taking the whole of Canada, we have completely salvaged only a little over one-third of the cases, and there are still two-thirds to be completed. The figures I gave some moments ago would indicate that.


Robert King Anderson: How much were the
loans and how much had the soldiers paid on their holdings?


Charles A. Stewart: I shall be
glad to have that statement prepared, but

Supply-Soldiers' Settlement
that will take some little time. In answer to my hon. friend (Mr. Manion) as regards a reduction in staff, in July, 1920, the staff was 1,580, all told. At the moment the staff is 690, all told.	[DOT]


Robert James Manion: The minister means the
whole staff in the Dominion?


Charles A. Stewart: Yes.


Arthur Edward Ross: In addition to salaries paid to members of the board, what extra amounts were paid and for what?


Charles A. Stewart: Nothing except their travelling expenses.


Arthur Edward Ross: What amounts?


Charles A. Stewart: I have not a statement of the actual travelling expenses of each member of the board.


Mr. COOTE:: I should like to draw the attention of the minister to the fact that the percentage of salvaged cases in Alberta appears to be 14 per cent, and in Manitoba, 16 per cent. Can the minister explain why the percentage of cases in Manitoba is greater than in Alberta?


Charles A. Stewart: I could not explain that; I frankly say so. I could not attempt to explain why the numbers should be greater in one province than in another. All we know is that when it becomes necessary to salvage, action must be taken. I would not attempt to analyze the cause of this.


Mr. CALDWELL:: Of the salvaged cases which have been completed, how many have reimbursed the government in full, and refunded to the soldier the payments that he has made?


Charles A. Stewart: The number is very small. Perhaps one influence that contributes to that is that land and stock were at a very high point when the soldier was established. Now deflation has set in, and while he might have had a considerable amount of value represented by his investment, owing to that deflation and to the fact that he is being salvaged just when deflation is at its height, in many cases there is not much salvage to repay the man who made the investment.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: I realize the condition that brought that about, and I am not blaming the Soldiers' Settlement Board for that condition; but it would be interesting to know in how many of those cases there was salvage enough to pay the soldier back in full, of in part, or even anything?


Charles A. Stewart: The chairman of the board informs me that there are a considerable number of cases in which money has been paid. I have not that information here, but I shall be glad to get it for my hon. friend.


Arthur John Lewis: I should like to share the optimism of the hon. member for Red Deer (Mr. Speakman); but after listening to the figures given regarding the total indebtedness, the amount of money received and the number of cases that have been salvaged, I do not think the outlook is very bright either for the soldier settlers themselves or for the government. If the figures given by the minister are correct, approximately $94,900,000, and in view of the fact, of course, that interest has been cancelled at the present time, the fact remains that interest is to be charged on over 894,000,000. This would mean that 84,745,000 would have to be paid yearly to meet the interest, without taking into account any of the capital investment; and when we consider that last year only $1,600,000 was collected and it took $1,400,000 to get it, it does not seem to me that this is very good book-keepiDg. I am just wondering what the end is going to be.	.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Grant to H. H. Moss, to cover expenses in connectior with his illegal arrest, $595.58.
Mr. GUTHRIE:: Will the minister explain
what this amount is for?


Charles A. Stewart: I have here
a written explanation of the matter. There was one Harold Moss, whom the department were seeking to prosecute. He went to the United States and an arrest was made, but unfortunately we arrested the wrong man, with the result that there was a protest from Washington from the Secretary of State, who suggested that the government of Canada make a compensation to one Moss, an American citizen who was arrested instead of the man we were after:
A letter was received by His Majesty's Embassy at Washington from the United States Secretary of State, suggesting that the government of Canada make compensation to one Harry Moss, an employee of the National Board of Fire Underwriters of New York City, who was wrongfully arrested in Chicago on the 3rd November, 1921, at the direction of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, on being erroneously identified with Harold H. Moss, who was wanted on charges of false pretences and fraud in connection with transactions with the Soldier Settlement Board.
From the board's records, it is clear that one Harry Moss of Chicago was improperly arrested on an in-fomation laid and warants secured by the board for the arrest of Harold H. Moss, formerly of Winnipeg. The Board is not in a position to say what injury Harry Moss suffered by reason of the improper arrest.

Supply-Trade and Commerce
nor if injury was suffered, is it in a position to say what compensation should be paid, or how the matter should be disposed of. It would appear to the board that the entire matter is one involving the administration of justice, and must be determined by the opinion and recommendation of the Justice department.
Should it be determined by the Justice department that compensation should be paid by the Canadian authorities, it will be necessary to determine on which department the responsibility rests for the improper arrest, and the board on that ground does not accept the responsibility.
In order that full information may be available for the proper consideration of the legal and international questions involved, a brief history of the case as it appears in the board's records, is given herewith.
As a result of certain information placed before the parliamentary committee on Re-establishment, the board instituted an enquiry under Section 55 of the Soldier Settlement Act, into certain land purchases in the province of Manitoba. At this enquiry, taken under oath, it transpired that in 1919 one H. H. Moss of Winnipeg had sold to the board certain farms, and the evidence thus taken established, in the opinion of C. H. Locke, legal counsel employed, a prima facie case against the said H. H. Moss of perjury, obtaining money by false pretences, and other criminal wrongdoing. Moss was a witness in the early stages of the enquiry. On the advice of counsel the board placed the facts before the Attorney General's department of Manitoba, and in consultation with the Deputy Attorney General of Manitoba, laid certain informations against H. H. Moss and had warrants for his arrest issued. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police had been employed to assist in gathering evidence for the enquiry, and the warrant for arrest was placed in their hands. On attempting to execute same, it was ascertained that H. H. Moss had fled from justice, and was somewhere in the United States.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police pursued their attempts to* locate H. H. Moss in the United States, and their agents finally reported that he had been located in Chicago, and they asked the board to undertake to defray the expense of their sending a police constable to Chicago to verify the reports of the police agents. The board agreed to do this, and constable Downey was sent from Winnipeg to Chicago by the R.C.M.P. authorities. The board supplied the R.C. M.P. with a good photograph of the accused and with a full description and other means of identification. Constable Downey reported that he had definitely located the accused in the offices of the National Board of Fire Underwriters in Chicago; that he had personally seen the accused; and that there was no doubt of his identity. On the advice of counsel, the board submitted the facts to the Department of Justice, and obtained authority to commence extradition proceedings, and the R.C.M.P. were therefore authorized to make the arrest. This was done and Mr. Locke having acted as counsel at the board's enquiry and being conversant with all the facts, was sent to Chicago to direct the proceedings. On his arrival he immediately discovered that the man arrested was not H. H. Moss, the accused, and consequently ordered his release. The whereabouts of Harold H. Moss, the accused, have not since been discovered.
We are asking for this sum because we believe we shall be liable for the wrongful arrest of the American citizen Moss, who was not the man we were after.


Hugh Guthrie: Is it proposed to give this amount to him?


Charles A. Stewart: The matter is entirely in the hands of the Justice department.


Hugh Guthrie: What is to be done with the money?


Charles A. Stewart: We are
assuming that we shall have to make some restitution for the wrongful arrest of this man, and as he is an American citizen the matter is more or less of an international character.


Hugh Guthrie: The amount is oddj it
must have been decided upon in some way.


Charles A. Stewart: The man has agreed to accept that amount as restitution.


Hugh Guthrie: And in the meantime the minister says his department has not been found liable in any way by any tribunal, so that it is a matter of negotiation between the man, Moss, and the department.


Charles A. Stewart: Well, that
is partly right, and perhaps my explanation is only partly right. The man has agreed to accept this amount and we have practically agreed to pay it in settlement of the case. The money has not yet been paid, but undoubtedly it will be.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.

[Stage Direction]
Trade and Commerce-salaries and contingencies. $498,490.
Robert James Manion: Perhaps the minister will
explain the cause of the increase of some 850,000 in this item.


James Alexander Robb: This is accounted for partly by requisitions and partly by transfers and some increases of the .staff. There have been transferred to the permanent those who were on the temporary list. Under the act of 1918 the statistical work of all the various departments of government was transferred to the Bureau of Statistics. So we have transferred some of these employees from other departments, and to carry on the work it is necessary to make these employees permanent in accordance with the requirements of the Civil Service Commission.


Hugh Guthrie: What strikes one at first glance is the very substantial increase in the number of employees in this department. An increase in a single year from 300 to 345 employees is rather staggering, while the increase in the cost of administration as a result of this increase in staff is from $425,000 to $476,000. What was the necessity for this enormous increase in the staff?


James Alexander Robb: As I have just explained, it does not necessarily mean that there is this enormous increase in the staff nor in the



Supply-Trade and Commerce
cost of administration. Under the system of book-keeping, to meet the requirements of the auditor general moneys must be voted either for temporary or for permanent employees. The Civil Service Commission refuses any longer to grant certificates for the temporary employees who have been in this department for a number of years, and this necessitates their being made permanent. As a matter of fact I think the increase in staff is warranted in view of the statistical information demanded. My hon. friend will observe that 37 of these 45 additional employees are in the Bureau of Statistics. There are only two additional employees in the administration branch of the department, and under readjustment during the year these will disappear. The other six are in the commercial intelligence bureau.


Hugh Guthrie: Were they not all in the department last year?


James Alexander Robb: Some have been transferred from the Department of Labour, some from the Interior department, and some were on the temporary list and had been there for a number of years. If we had a system of book-keeping whereby we could have a lump sum to run each department during the year it would not be necessary to vote so much, but when we have to provide for those who are now temporary employees and will be transferred and made permanent after this vote is passed, my hon. friend can see the necessity for putting through these different votes.


Hugh Guthrie: Turning to page 66 of the Main Estimates, where the various activities of the Department of Trade and Commerce are set out, it will be found that for the carrying on of that department last year we voted $3,252,000. This year all the minister asks is $3,029,000. He proposes a reduction of $222,000 in round figures. No new services are enumerated on page 66, apparently no greater activities are contemplated over last year, if anything the work of the department will be decreased this year because about a quarter of a million dollars less is asked for in the Main Estimates. Notwithstanding that, on turning to civil government we find this increase of 45 in the number of employees and something like $50,000 in salaries. You can go over all the details of civil government and though we are year by year getting farther from war activities, when so large a Civil Service was necessary, it is strange that the cost of civil government seems to increase. This year there is an increase of $252,000. This is one

of the departments of civil government. If we may judge by the Main Estimates its activities will be less even than they were last year. But whatever we may provide in the estimates, for some reason or other the cost of the staff of the department goes up, and as a result we are asked to provide by taxation a quarter of a million dollars more than we did last year. It is all very well for my hon. friend to say that these clerks have been transferred from some other departments, but those other departments do not show a decrease, and the Main Estimates show that the amount in excess of last year for civil government is just a shade over a quarter of a million dollars.


Henri Sévérin Béland: Mr. Chairman, as my hon. friend has referred to all departments of civil government, and he has confined himself to a study of the civil government estimates, I think you will agree with me that it is not the proper manner in which to examine the expenditure for administration so far as salaries are concerned. Take the Department of Soldiers' Civil Re-establishment, almost all the employees are temporary and do not figure at all in the civil government list. There is this year in the estimates for salaries for the Soldiers' Civil Re-establishment department a reduction of $1,000,000. Now, my hon. friend I know wants to be fair. He says there is an increase in the civil government expenditure of a quarter of a million dollars. I grant that it may be so, but even if it is, if there is a reduction of salaries in my department of $1,000,000, there will be a saving of three-quarters of a million dollars this year in salaries. My hon. friend will admit that-yes, he has to admit that.


Hugh Guthrie: That is as to temporary employees. I am talking of those on the permanent list.


Henri Sévérin Béland: My *hon. friend says these are temporary employees. What did he mean when he referred to the war? He said the farther we get away from the war the more we pay in salaries. The Soldiers' Civil Reestablishment department is a war department if it is anything at all. There was a reduction last year of $1,000,000 in salaries. This year there is a similar reduction. My hon. friend fails to take that into account, but he should do so if he wants to be fair.


Hugh Guthrie: That is a different proposition.


Henri Sévérin Béland: No, it is not a different proposition at all. My hon. friend intimates that there is an increase in the amount for salaries for administration while there should

Supply-Trade and Commerce
be a decrease because we are getting farther away from thfe war. I agree with
10 p.m. him. But when, he confines his remarks to civil government he becomes-unwittingly I am sure-unfair and states the position wrongly, and I think he will admit it because he wants to be fair. This is for the Soldiers' Civil Re-establishment department-a reduction of $1,000,000. What about the Defence department? I think 1,600 temporary employees have been dispensed with there. That does not appear in the civil government estimates. There is also probably over a million dollars of reduction in salaries paid. My hon. friend says it seems that the expenditure is increasing all the time. No, it is decreasing every year, and by large amounts. The cost of civil government, no doubt, remains much about the same in almost every department, and it will remain about the same no matter what government is in power. I rose mainly for the purpose of pointing out that it is very unfair to confine one's observations to the civil government estimates; it is absolutely unfair because really there is a decrease of over $2,000,000 in salaries paid by this government this year for employees all over the country.


Hugh Guthrie: This item that we are discussing now is the civil government vote. It has nothing to do with the temporary employees which the various departments of the government employ and have employed since the war. It was not only in the war departments, such as the Department of Soldiers' Civil Re-establishment and the Department of Militia and Defence, that temporary clerks were taken on. Why, they were almost innumerable in the Finance department and in every other department of the government owing to the war. But this vote we are discussing now, and in regard to which I charge there is an increase when there should be no increase, is a permanent vote. There is no cutting down in this vote. These men are simply appointed to the permanent staff and there will be more of them there again next year and the year after that again. Instead of decreasing the cost of civil government this government is increasing it. I am aware that there is a vanishing expenditure, or should be, in my hon. friend's Department of Soldiers' Civil Re-establishment. I know that in one year or a year and a half we let out from the Militia department 8,000 temporary employees. I should think we are within reasonable distance now of closing up the Department of Soldiers' Civil Re-e'stab-lishment altogether; but the fact that we
have let many hundreds of war employees go who are no longer necessary, is that a justification for increasing the permanent staff that governs this country? That is my point, and the only point I wish to make. Instead of retrenchment we have increase. The times do not justify increase; the activities of the government do not justify increase; the business of the country being done to-day does not, justify this increase. The fact is the civil service of Canada is being loaded up in this way with permanent employees, and you cannot dispense with them as you can with temporary employees by simply telling them to go. They obtain a fixed place in the service of Canada. Next year I am willing to predict there will be no decrease in this particular vote, but that the cost of civil government in Canada will be more than it is this year.


James Alexander Robb: My hon. friend knows that under civil government we have employees classed as temporary as well as those on the permanent list. There are in all departments many employees who have been on the: temporary^ list for years, and the Civil Service Commission have ruled that they should be put on the permanent list. I think it is only reasonable when a man has been in a department five, ten or fifteen years and it is evident that his services are required that he should be put on the permanent list. You have to pay him anyway.
My hon. friend, on the other hand, referred to a reduction of $222,000, and he takes that as an indication that we propose less activity during the year. That is not true. We anticipate greater activity during the year. I can show my hon. friend where these reductions were made. In the first place there is the census staff, which my hon. friend knows is taken on every ten years. Those are temporary employees. There is a reduction of $115,000 there.


Hugh Guthrie: That will not appear in this vote, will it?


James Alexander Robb: No, but it was in connection with this vote that my hon. friend anticipated less activity during the year. Then $85,000 was spent for improvements to the elevator at Vancouver. The department had nothing whatever to do with that. It was all handled by the Board of Grain Commissioners. We are also making a reduction of $10,000 in the Commercial Intelligence department, travelling and miscellaneous expenses in connection with the junior trade commissioners. There is a reduction of $15,000 for exhibitions and publicity; a reduction of $5,900 in the Weights
Supply-Trade and Commerce

and Measures branch; $6,330 in the Gas and Electricity branch; and $50,000 through printing now being done elsewhere. This does not in any way affect civil government, and no person knows it better than my hon friend, who has been in charge of a department himself and has had considerable experience in parliament.


Hugh Guthrie: It strikes me that the reductions in all the services my hon. friend has just enumerated must mean less work than there was to do formerly with a larger expenditure. When the expenditure was greater and there was more work to do, more clerical assistance would of necessity be required- more men to do the work. I think it is quite clear from these estimates that there is going to be a considerable reduction in the work of the department. Then why add forty or fifty to the staff of a department to do less work? Let me put to my hon. friend the case of a business man doing a business this year entailing an expenditure of $3,000,000. He has his staff and does the work satisfactorily with the number he has. Next year he is going to do a business of $2,500,000. Do you think he is going to add fifty clerks to his staff to do a less amount of business? It strikes me as too obvious for argument that with a smaller expenditure and less departmental activity, the department should get along at least with the same staff it had last year. Does not that seem reasonable? Instead of that the minister proposes a large increase in the staff and an additional expenditure of $50,000 to pay for it. It may be that he has been loaded down in his department with other services he did not have last year, but I doubt very much if there is any saving shown in these other departments from which his additional staff has come. I have not looked into the estimates and I cannot say as to that, but my experience of nearly thirty years in this House has been that the cost of civil government has gone up under every government. I do not believe there ever was a time when the need for retrenchment was as great as it is to-day, and surely it is not a matter for censure that one should point out this substantial increase which the government proposes for the coming year when we cannot afford the money, when every dollar of the increase has to be met by taxation of the people. What I protest against not only in the Department of Trade and Commerce but in all the departments of the government is that the temporary staffs are being carried on. The war staffs are certainly being reduced from year to year, but the temporary staffs of the

department still exist and they are paid out of special votes in the case of almost every department. They have them there and year by year they get them wedged in as permanents, whether by the aid of the Civil Service Commission or in defiance of that body I cannot say, but the result is seen in the estimates brought down to the House. There is an aggregate increase of-I said $250,000- but it is an increase of $265,000, in the cost of the clerical work, practically, of the government of Canada.


Robert James Manion: Would the minister tell us how many temporary employees in the department have been placed on the permanent staff?


James Alexander Robb: They have not been put in yet. We cannot put them in until this vote goes through.


Robert James Manion: What are the details?


James Alexander Robb: The statutory increases amount to $16,000, and there are 45 to be transferred.


Robert James Manion: From temporary to permanent positions?


James Alexander Robb: Yes; some of them are transferred from other departments.


Robert James Manion: I notice that the minister mentioned the Department of Labour. I looked up the appropriations for that department and I found there had been a decrease in the staff of about 27; that is about 20 less than the increase in the department. I should like to say just one word about the Statistical branch. It is now, and has been for some years-two or three years I think-entirely in the Department of Trade and Commerce.


James Alexander Robb: Since 1918-no, prior to that. In 1918 there was an act passed transferring the statistics of every department to the Dominion bureau.


Robert James Manion: I do not recollect the exact date but I knew it was back about that time. I simply wish to say this: The Bureau of Statistics, since that unity has been brought about, is a department which is of great use, not only to the members of this House but to the people of the country in general. I remember that when I came into this House first, about 1917, if you wished to obtain any statistics regarding minerals, for example, or grain, or any other department of government, you would ring up the department, perhaps the Department of the Interior, the Department of Agriculture, or some other department. You would probably be referred from the one to the other and from the other back

Supply-Trade and Commerce
to the one. I remember on one occasion being referred by telephone to seven or eight different offices when I tried to get certain details. At the present time one can ring up or write to the Bureau of Statistics and get-on most occasions, and on most subjects concerned with government-the figures or statistics which one desires, and I have yet to see them pointed out as given in a mistaken way. I just wished to put myself on record as expressing on my own behalf alone, but I am sure it is the opinion of many in this House, an appreciation of the work that is being done by the Bureau of Statistics under Mr. Coats. I believe that once in a while-in the Civil Service as in other branches of life-a few words of commendation where they are well deserved, as they certainly are in the case of the Bureau of Statistics, are decidely in place.


Robert King Anderson: I would like to ask the minister how many of the forty-five employees referred to have been transferred from the Department of Labour?


James Alexander Robb: Nine.


Robert King Anderson: From what departments were they transferred?


James Alexander Robb: I could not give that information. I should say that nine is the total number that were transferred. I think most of them came from the Labour department, but some of them may have been transferred from the Forestry branch.


Robert King Anderson: I notice a reference to "office appliance operators". What work do these employees do?


James Alexander Robb: They are the men who run the multigraph machines in the Statistical department and other branches.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Robert James Manion: May I ask the minister what other items in the Department of Trade and Commerce remain to be dealt with? Has he nearly finished the estimates of that department?


James Alexander Robb: No, there are some steamship subsidies yet to be dealt with.


Robert James Manion: I would like to point out that the hon. member for Vancouver Centre (Mr. Stevens), as the minister knows, having been formerly Minister of Trade and Commerce, usually looks after those estimates in the interest of hon. members on this side. The hon. gentleman is not in the chamber to-night, unfortunately he is engaged elsewhere, and I would like to have these items
held over. I would prefer if the minister would do that until the hon. member is able to be present I do not know that there is any special matter that he wishes to take up, but I should like the minister to hold these votes over for the time being.


James Alexander Robb: I would like to get them
cleaned up but I will say this: I did defer other estimates to suit the former Minister of Trade and Commerce, my immediate predecessor, and it is quite likely there will be some small items in the supplementaries. I will allow the hon. member for Vancouver Centre wide discussion on those.


Robert James Manion: If the minister agrees that on some other item we may come back to these particular appropriations, if we wish for further details, I think as far as we are concerned we will be satisfied.


James Alexander Robb: Anything you wish.
Patent and Copyright-salaries, $175,865; contingencies, $35,000.


James Alexander Robb: There is no change in the number of employees, but there is a slight-increase in the amount for salaries owing entirely to reclassification.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Canada Grain Act-additional amount required, $200,000.
Robert James Manion: I should like to suggest to the minister that this is a large item to be taken at this late hour, and that as there is likely to be some discussion it had better be left over.


James Alexander Robb: I do not object strenuously to letting it stand but I will explain this: The Board of Grain Commissioners estimated the amount required last year at $1,342,869. It was reduced in the department some $42,000. There were some accrued payments for the previous year, 1921-22, amounting to $50,000 and there were certain increases of salary endorsed by the commissioners. Furthermore we had an additional expenditure owing to having to handle last year almost the largest crop in our history. That explains the increased . amount required. The elevators administered by the Board of Grain Commissioners are a paying and not a losing proposition, and this is the estimate which has been prepared by the board and sent down to us.


Hugh Alexander Stewart: What effect
would the possible establishment of a wheat board have on this matter?


James Alexander Robb: None whatever. We would administer this act just the same.

Supply-Trade and Commerce


Robert James Manion: There have been some changes in the personnel of the grain commission. Would the minister tell the House what changes have been made and what appointments have been made since last year?


James Alexander Robb: The Board of Grain Commissioners are appointed for a period of ten years. The term of Mr. Staples, one of the commissioners, expired last year, and the government appointed in his place Mr. Mat Snow, a well-known western gentleman. Then Mr. Jones resigned voluntarily. His time was up this year, and, incidentally, I want to pay a tribute to Mr. Jones whom I regarded as a man who thoroughly understood the grain business, but he voluntarily retired and the government appointed to replace him Mr. Robinson, who had been associated for *: number of years with the Saskatchewan CoOperative Elevator Company. Mr. Hether-ington is now replacing Mr. Jones as general manager. Previous to that one of the commissioners, Mr. Jones, was manager of the system. ' Mr. Hetherington, who had been for many yeara secretary, is now general manager. I am not sure who succeeded Mr. Hetherington as secretary. It was on the recommendation of the commissioners, and Mr. Leslie Boyd still remains the chairman.


Robert James Manion: Any present indication of making any more changes?


James Alexander Robb: Not the least whatever.


Robert James Manion: I am very well acquainted with Mr. Jones, and I agree with the minister that his retirement is a great loss to the board because he is a very able man. I wish to ask the minister a question in regard to the different elevators that the Board of Grain Commissioners are handling for his department. There is one at Port Arthur and one, I think, at Saskatoon. Will he give us the details as to where they are and the business done at the present time?
M. ROBB: I have not the records before me as to the details of the business they are doing. In addition to those mentioned by my hon. friend, there is an internal terminal elevator at Moose Jaw, one in Saskatoon, and there are also elevators at Vancouver and at Calgary. The elevator at Vancouver has been putting through a lot of grain this season. Indeed, last year we put more grain through that elevator in Vancouver than during all the years since its construction, and this year I think we will put through more than twice as much as we put through last year. We were operating it 
and using the Calgary elevator as a reservoir, so that when the superintendent at Vancouver was able to see by the ships coming in, that he was going to empty his elevator in Vancouver, word would be sent down to Calgary to send on the reserves that were there, and in that way we have been able to handle the crop with satisfaction.


Robert James Manion: Has the minister any information as to the amount of grain going through the government elevators at Port Arthur, Saskatoon and Vancouver?


James Alexander Robb: I have it here:
1920-21	1921-22
Port Arthur	
13,439,586	14,018,826Moose Jaw	
4,161,870	1,527,367Saskatoon	
5,360,152	5,254,197Calgary	
4,317,795	3,138,319Vancouver	
1,082,438	6,621,474
We have not the figures for the crop of the year we are in now.


Robert James Manion: In most of the elevators, except the Vancouver elevator, and I think the Port Arthur elevator, there has been a decrease.


James Alexander Robb: Yes, last year.


Robert James Manion: With the large crop from the prairie provinces, why was there a decrease ?


James Alexander Robb: These figures are for the crop of the previous year.


James Dew Chaplin: The minister informed the House that this propostiion was self-sustaining. Can he tell us the revenue and to what account the money went?


James Alexander Robb: Would the hon. member like to go back several years?


James Dew Chaplin: No, just two years.


James Alexander Robb: In 1921-22 the revenue was $1,937,325.02 and the expenditure $1,235,000, leaving a surplus of $702,325.02. In 1922-23, up to February 28th-that is part of this year's crop, the revenue was $2,080,348.75 and the expenditure $1,231,667.80 leaving a surplus $1,848,680.95.


James Dew Chaplin: That goes into the consolidated revenue fund?


James Alexander Robb: Yes.


John Millar: From a rumour circulating some few years ago, which seemed to me to be very well founded, it appeared to me the department might suffer a loss in regard to a carload of grain shipped to the United States, passing out of the mixing elevator. The purchaser in the United States refused to receive

Supply-Trade and Commerce
the grain on the ground that it was not up to grade. The department had it inspected at Buffalo, and I believe by the order of the grain commissioners it was stored at Buffalo, and the new sample being graded by the inspector, he found the grade No. 3 and 4 tough, where the cargo was in fact graded out at No. 3. I understood the ground taken by the mixing elevator was that they had received from the government a regular certificate, and that they were therefore, not liable for any loss because the grain was not up to the mark. The purchaser took the stand that he would not accept it, and I understood there was some good reason to believe the loss might possibly fall on the department. Could the minister give us any information as to whether that matter is settled or how it stands?


James Alexander Robb: No, there has been no record of any claim coming in to the government. My recollection is that the matter was adjusted. I am glad my hon. friend has mentioned that, because it did not occur to me when I was answering some other questions. This complaint of a shipment of grain going out from Fort William to Buffalo was brought to my attention some time last summer. I ordered an investigation, and as a result of that, I instructed the commissioners to fire two of the employees who were grain inspectors and who, we had reason to believe, had, to' say the least, neglected their duties. This had a wholesome effect on the others. I have heard of no complaint since then.


John Millar: I am glad to hear that. I do not know whether the minister will have this information or not. Some years ago there was a heavy loss owing to the difference in weights between the elevator at Fort William and the transfer elevators at Owen Sound, Collingwood and other places, of about 50,000 bushels a year. Changes were put into effect in 1908 which remedied that matter, and for a year or two conditions were all right. I was wondering whether that remedy has been effective up to the present time or not. Can the minister state whether there is any discrepancy or not in the weights of grain shipments as they arrive at Owen Sound, Collingwood, Port Elgin and, in fact, Buffalo as well?


James Alexander Robb: There are very few complaints coming to the department now as regards either inspection or weight. We recently had some complaints from overseas regarding the weight of a cargo of grain shipped out of Montreal- We are going to send a couple of men over there. We will send one man from
the inspection department, and I think the Montreal Harbour Commissioners are going to send a man to look into this. We want to satisfy our customers on the other side that we in Canada have every desire to see that business is done right, upon a fair basis. As my hon. friend knows, the grain is weighed out in this country in large draughts; on the other side it is weighed in smaller draughts. Then there is a question as to what may have happened to some of this cargo in transit. The boat may have sprung a leak. There may have been some wet grain in the bottom, dumped over. We are going to look into this matter in an endeavour to satisfy the claim on the other side.


Robert King Anderson: Are there any elevators in Ontario under the control of the department?


James Alexander Robb: No. The grain commissioners have a certain supervision over these elevators; but we do not own any in Ontario.


Robert King Anderson: There is one at Port Colborne.


James Alexander Robb: That is under the Railway department.


Robert King Anderson: Has the department not been requested by some interests in Ontario to establish an elevator?


James Alexander Robb: We have from time to time such requests from all parts of the country, where people imagine an elevator would be a very nice proposition.


Robert King Anderson: Within the last year?


James Alexander Robb: Yes, we had a request from Ontario.


Mr. RYCKMAN:: What is the total value, roughly, of these elevators, including plant and equipment?


James Alexander Robb: In my judgment, these elevators could mot be built to-day for their original cost. The capital cost of the Port Arthur house is $1,415,336.31; of the Saskatchewan elevator, $1,134,745.73; of the Moose Jaw elevator $1,322,725.50. Of the three houses I have cited, the capacity is 3,250,000 bushels, 3,500,000 bushels, and 3,500,000 bushels respectively. There is at Calgary a smaller house with a capacity of 2,500,000 bushels and costing $884,564.35. The house at Vancouver, with a capacity of 1,250,000 bushels, cost $837,351.71. The total capital investment is $5,594,723.60, for a capacity of 14,000,000 bushels.

Supply-Trade and Commerce


Edmond Baird Ryckman: The minister, I think, said that there was no write-off for depreciation for buildings or plant.


James Alexander Robb: No.


Edmond Baird Ryckman: If a proper depreciation were set up against this capital invested, and if the profits were only as stated by the minister, namely, as I recall, $700,000 one year, and $800,000 last year, this would mep that this business is not being very profitably carried on.


James Alexander Robb: The accountant at Fort William has prepared a statement which has been sent here; but I cannot find any statement of interest, although he has an item of $294,000 under profit and loss, which might be attributed to interest. That shows a percentage of profit on the capital investment in plant in the Port Arthui house of almost 5-32 per cent.


Mr. CHURCH:: As this is an elevator appropriation, the minister might tell the committee what has been done since last session regarding the promise made then by the minister in answer to a question asked on this side of the House as to a terminal elevator for central and western Ontario. A few years ago there waited upon the government a deputation consisting of representatives of, I might say, all the farming and business interests of central and western Ontario. I understand the policy in relation to elevators is that there shall be equality of treatment; that where a government elevator is erected in the West, an elevator shall be erected in Ontario. A memorandum was presented by a deputation of 200 people including the United Farmers of Ontario, the Grain Growers of the province, the late Lieutenant Governor Clarke of Ontario, Mr. Manning Doherty, the harbour commissioners of five or six very important harbours, representing that Ontario had been discriminated against as regards a terminal elevator to serve the farmers of that province. Ontario is suffering under a handicap in the matter of transportation. There are many flag stations where there are no elevators, and the United Farmers of Ontario and the harbour commissioner's of Toronto in a very elaborate memorial which I read last session, pointed out to the government the necessity of such a terminal elevator in central Ontario. This is very much needed from the farmer's standpoint, because he has no place to take his grain crop, and he loses a good deal of the price, his time and so forth. The need of such an elevator is, indeed, apparent to every-
body. Years ago, in my city there were a number of elevators on the water front, but now we have none. There is an elevator at Port Colborne and one at Fort William, and I agree with the minister that there is no need for another elevator for through-going crop. But this elevator is not for through crops going to the Old Country via Buffalo. The need in Ontario is a local one; the farmer needs some elevator where he can put his crop in the winter and leave it until such time as water-going traffic can take it to its proper destination. A return brought down to the House some time ago showed that there are a great many elevators in the West. Well, the people are not, objecting to that. Rather, they are encouraging the government to put up these elevators; and the minister since taking office has been active in many branches of his department. I commend him as far as this goes. But so far as Ontario is concerned I want to urge upon him the great necessity that exists for terminal elevators for the farmers of this province. The deputation that waited upon a former government was drawn from Peterborough, Stratford and from the whole northern division of the Grand Trunk, as well as from central and western Ontario. This large deputation waited upon Sir Thomas White, but the government' of that day could not see its way, owing to the war, to take practical action in the' matter. They admitted the necessity there was for an elevator of this description but they attributed their inability to do anything to the financial stress of the time. A hundred and twenty farmers' organizations petitioned the government, and I shall not read the memo to-night, because the minister has a copy of it. The hon. member for West York (Sir Henry Drayton) asked the minister last session to give this matter his consideration and the minister promised that during the recess he would look into it. The question was discussed the other day in the Ontario legislature, but it was found that that body could do nothing in the premises, because the matter was a federal one. Now, I may say that while the United Farmers of Ontario have no particular love for the city I come from, nevertheless they recommend that the elevator be established in Toronto. I am not asking at this moment that this recommendation be acted upon; all I ask is that an elevator be established somewhere in the province to meet the economic and transportation necessities of the farmers of Ontario. It is not so much the site of the elevator that matters; what is important is that one be established. We want a terminal elevator for the small farmer so that

Supply-Trade and Commerce
he may have somewhere to take his crop for the winter months, because as things stand at present he has no such facilities. 1 know that the minister is sympathetically disposed to this question and while I do not want to delay the committee on this item to-night, I hope that the minister will give us an assurance that he will take steps to meet the representations that have been made by the farmers of Ontario. I believe he will be waited upon by another deputation and I trust that he will give them a chance to put their case plainly before him. I think it is in the interests of the country that he should make a declaration of policy with regard to the desirability of establishing this terminal elevator on lake Ontario or lake Erie for central and western Ontario. This is an important matter and I sincerely trust that the minister will give it his most careful consideration.


James Alexander Robb: While I am always glad to meet a deputation from Ontario and Toronto particularly, I think I would rather go up to Toronto and look into the matter there. I have been promising my hon. friend a long time to go there, and I think I can assure him now that before next session I will go to that city and look the thing over. I might point out that the way freights are arranged in this country, working west to east, there is considerable elevator capacity at Depot Harbour, Owen Sound, Midland, Goderich, Port Huron, Port Credit and Port Colborne. I am inclined to think there is need of more capacity at Port Colborne. I would point out to my hon. friend, however, that while there is considerable elevator capacity up there, perhaps not enough for their requirements, there are at Kingston two very large houses in addition to one at Prescott, which were practically idle during the last few years. However, I renew my promise to the hon. member to visit Toronto.


John Millar: The minister, having had a conference with the Grain Commissioners in the last few weeks, said that some complaints were made during the year with regard to screenings. Possibly the point may have been raised in the course of the conference, and the minister may be able to give us information. The point I refer to is this. The farmers were in many cases paid very small amounts, sometimes even so low as 50 cents or $1 a ton for screenings of excellent quality. I am not referring to screenings that are so cheap to-day that they are thrown into the lake. I know there is a quantity of that class of screenings. I am referring, however, to valuable screenings; what I have in
mind particularly is white cleaned oats. This should have been worth $12 or $15 a ton, but the farmer received only $1 a ton for it. If that point arose during the conference perhaps the minister can give us some information in reference to it.


James Alexander Robb: We discussed that, and the Board of Grain, Commissioners are now preparing for me a complete statement. I intend that that shall be one of the questions to be inquired into during the summer.


Robert James Manion: I was going to mention something about screenings myself when my hon. friend (Mr. Millar) brought up the point.
I was pleased to hear him refer to it because there has been a good deal of dissussion at the head of the lakes with reference to that question. As the minister knows, both the ex-Minister of Trade and Commerce (Mr. Stevens) and myself have asked questions regarding the disposal of screenings because charges have been made that the screenings have not been turned back in the condition in which they should be. In the old days before the amendment to the Grain Act, the overages were mixed up with the question of screenings, and they are yet to a certain extent. But the main charge seems to be that instead of people getting back the screenings as they should really get them, in their original condition, they receive, as a matter of fact, refuse * screenings. I am not making a positive statement of fact, but this charge appears in the press occasionally, and one hears it on the street too; and sometimes as a member of the constituency I get letters in reference to the question. It is stated that when anyone asks for screenings he simply gets refuse screenings, instead of the original screenings which are worth a great deal more. The matter is very much as the hon. member has stated. I asked some questions of the minister, by correspondence and on the order paper, regarding this matter with a view to obtaining further information. At present the question seems to be in a rather hazy state. I do not say that as a criticism of the Board of Grain Commissioners, because I believe they are an able body who are trying to carry out their duties as well as they can. But in the past , the question of screenings and dockage has been allowed to drift along, and now there seems to be coming from the prairie provinces, as well as from some dealers at the head of the lakes, who wish to buy screenings, the charge that they cannot get what they are entitled to receive. I would suggest to the minister therefore that it would be a good idea to have the whole question thoroughly investigated. I might mention a concrete

Supply-Trade and Commerce
circumstance in reference to this matter. A man named Harvey from one of the prairie provinces came to the head of the lakes about a year and a half ago bringing in unfinished sheep which he fed there on screenings. He brought them in very ordinary selling condition and he fed them during the winter on screenings he obtained almost for nothing, because the refuse screenings at that time were really used for fuel in a number of the business blocks of the city. I have forgotten how many sheep he had, but I think the number was around 10,000; and he fed them on the refuse screenings which he got practically for a song. He sold those sheep in the spring very much fattened and in excellent shape for market, and he made a very profitable deal in the transaction. This winter he has increased the number of the sheep he is feeding there, and although I cannot give the exact figure, I think it is around 20,000. This winter, although he has had to pay a higher price for these refuse screenings, he is fattening a large number of sheep in the same way as he did last winter. So it shows the possibilities for the future from the live stock standpoint, which is probably one of the most important branches of agriculture not only in my section of the country-in which naturally I am interested-but throughout the whole Dominion. Formerly these refuse screenings were of no value to the elevator people and were taken out and dumped into the lake. According to replies given by the minister to questions placed on the order paper, and to letters written by myself, the Board of Grain Commissioners claim that the elevator companies have been losing money in handling these screenings. Then it is claimed in rebuttal by one of the dealers at the head of the lakes in letters to me and to other members in this House-at least I assume so from some of the questions put on the order paper-that if he could get these screenings at a fair price he could make a very fine stock feed out of them. And the fact that last winter so many sheep were fattened simply on the refuse screenings shows that they contain very good feed for stock.


John Millar: Could the hon. gentleman tell us whether the owners of those sheep sustained any loss by reason of some of their stock being attacked by disease, said to be due to their being fed on these screenings?


Robert James Manion: No. I know the gentleman quite well and his first lot were a great success. I believe this winter-I have only a hazy recollection of it-some disease did develop, but it had nothing to do with the feeding. The
TMr. Manion.]
first winter he fattened ten thousand sheep very successfully with very little shelter-[DOT] only an old plant which had been built for another purpose; but this winter I am not sure that he has any shelter at all for his sheep, and the last I heard they promised to be as successful a lot as he fattened the previous winter. It was a very unexpected result, and if my hon. friends on my left do not know about it I imagine they will be more interested in the success of the experiment than any other hon. members. Mr. Harvey is the gentleman who has made such a success in the use of these screenings for the fattening of sheep. Therefore, this whole question of screenings might very well be thoroughly looked into not only from the standpoint of the fattening of sheep, but in relation to stock feeding generally. I might add that I have been told someone is going to bring in a number of cattle next winter to fatten on these refuse screenings and counts on having the same success as Mr. Harvey has had with sheep. But there is also the phase of the question which my hon. friends to the left have brought up on several occasions this session, namely, that the grain trade was not treating the wheat growers fairly. The remarks of my hon, friend who has just sat down (Mr. Millar) show that he at least is thinking of that phase. From what I have read in the press many farmers feel that they have not been able to get back, even from the government elevators at Saskatoon and other points, the screenings to which they are entitled. I read an article recently in a newspaper in which a farmer stated that he had shipped a car of wheat from one of the prairie provinces to Vancouver, and that by the time the car reached Vancouver he had lost money on the shipment owing to the freight he had to pay on the dockage. He claimed-and he is supported by others-that if he had got back what was coming to him-I do not say this positively for I am not a grain man, but I have heard it said at different times by experienced grain men-that if he had got back the broken wheat and various other grains and seeds in the screenings of value as feed he would have been in a position to gain very markedly on his shipment. I only refer to that in passing. My hon. friends to my left probably are very much more familiar with the question than I am and will be able to judge as to the correctness of the claim, but I know it has been very much discussed among grain men at the head of the lakes.
I repeat, I think the minister would do well to have the whole question investigated, because I do not think it is the policy of those

Supply-Trade and Commerce
in charge of the government elevators to treat the farmers of the West unfairly. Certainly those elevators were not only built for the convenience of the western farmers, but also for another purpose-that of acting as a check upon the privately owned elevators. In the past at least there have been vast amounts of overages which were very, very valuable in nearly all the elevators, including those operated by the government. So the minister has within his power an opportunity, through the Board of Grain Commissioners-and I am sure he will be glad to take advantage of it- to look into this whole question and see that justice is done. That is all I am asking. I have no interest whatever in any shape, manner or form in the grain business except as a citizen of this country, but I am slightly familiar with it as a resident at the head of the lakes where we have such immense elevator capacity.


The CHAIRMAN:: Shall the item carry?


Mr. STEVENS:: Pardon me, Mr. Chairman, no. The minister was to give us an answer.


James Alexander Robb: May I repeat again that it will be a subject for inquiry. Already the Board of Grain Commissioners have suggested to Mr. Clark of the Department of Agriculture, who has charge of the administration of the Stock Feeds Act, that he should go up to Fort William and ascertain the real value of these screenings.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I wish the minister would be good enough to refer the observations made by my hon. friend for Fort William (Mr. Manion) and those I am about to make now to whatever body is going to consider this matter. The crux of the screenings problem was I think brought up in a question asked a few weeks ago by one of the members from Manitoba-I have forgotten his riding. It is so difficult sometimes to approach a question of this kind without appearing to be more or less viciously attacking the
11 p.m. elevator interests, and therefore I should like to make it perfectly clear that that is not my object at the moment. There is a statement of fact, however, which I desire to make, and I am sure it cannot be gainsaid. It is this, that when a car of wheat is first cleaned dockage is made because of the presence of a certain percentage of dirt-chaff, seeds and so forth. In that first dockage there is a large proportion of broken wheat, oats, buckwheat, flaxseed and purposes. That belongs rightly to the other grains that are very valuable for feed farmer, and he should get full value for it.
That fact, I think, is admitted, and this is what I want my hon. friends to my left to get as well: That it is not the screenings that are sold at $1.50 a ton that was referred to the other day. The screenings sold for $1.50 a ton is the residue after this first screenings has been put through a second process and all the valuable wheat, oats, buckwheat, flaxseed and other grains taken out. Then the residue, weed seeds, chaff and stuff of that character is sold for $1.50 a ton. The point I want to make is this: There is no justification for any company doing that, retaining the full value of the broken wheat and such like grains taken out of the first screenings. That is the justifiable complaint that my hon. friends to my left and the farmers they represent in the West have. [DOT] I pointed out in 1919 and in 1920 in the House, as well as on other occasions, that it was an injustice to the farmer. It was a loss of valuable grains which belonged to him, and he had a right to complain. I think that we ought to find some way, and we had this in mind a little over a year ago when the other commission was working upon this, of so adjusting the regulations and controlling the terminal elevators that the farmer would get the full value of these screenings.
There is another feature. According to the law, when a dockage is made the shipper or farmer gets the value or warehouse receipt for the wheat less the dockage. When the dockage is ascertained the shipper is supposed to get credit for that. Now- through ignorance very frequently, and when I say ignorance I mean simply ignorance of his rights, the shipper does not claim that credit, and it has not been made obligatory upon the elevator actually to make the entry and advise him of ' it. In other words, a great many elevators take the stand; It is there, if they like to claim it, well and good. But if they do not know enough to claim it they do not get it. That is one complaint the farmers have which should be corrected by regulation.
Then next is this, and it is even more important. I have already cited the process of a second cleaning. What the shipper or the farmer is entitled to from the elevator is the full value of the screenings from the first cleaning, less, of course, the charges for cleaning, which charges are fixed by the schedule. He is entitled to the full value, but he does not get it. That is the point I want to make, and I would suggest that these references of mine, perhaps imperfectly made to-night, should be brought to the attention of whoever is going to investigate the matter and a serious effort be made to adjust that problem.

Supply-Trade and Commerce


James Alexander Robb: Does the complaint apply only to the government elevator's? Does it not apply also to the Saskatchewan Elevator Company?


Henry Herbert Stevens: To all elevators. I will speak with absolute positiveness up to 1919. It included all elevators at the head of the lakes up to that time. I cannot speak with the same positiveness since, because since 1920 I have not personally checked up the figures, but I know that the conditions are the same; there has been no change. I asked some questions in the House the other da}'. I am not in a position nor do I wish to weary the House with any detailed analysis of these questions and answers-


John Millar: The remarks my hon. friend has just made do not apply to the mixing elevators, do they?


Henry Herbert Stevens: No, because the mixing
elevator must own its grain. It purchases it outright. I am referring to the public terminal elevators. I could name them. I have a list, but my hon. friend knows them. It is practically all the elevators at the head of the lakes, those known as public terminal elevators operating under license from the Grain Commission. The mixing or private elevator purchases' its grain outright, and of course once in full possession of it, it can do what it likes with it. I do not want my hon. friend to think for a moment I am discussing now the question of whether it is advisable to permit mixing. I know the problem and would be prepared to discuss it, but I do not think it is germane to this question.
I asked certain questions which will be found on Hansard on page 1661. One was this:
What is the information as applied to public terminal elevators and the government elevators at Fort William and Port Arthur:-(a) Total amount of wheat scalpings shipped from same: (b) total amount of oats scalpings shipped from same.
The answer to that is this, and I want to submit to the minister that I am not particularly complaining about the answer other than to say that I feel that more accurate information ought to be in the possession of the commission or the department:
The board is unable to furnish the amount of wheat or oat scalpings shipped or received as they are included in the records of the board as elevator scalpings. In consequence no separate record is available showing the composition or quantities of either wheat or oat scalpings handled by terminal elevators.
Frankly I question the correctness of the answer. If it is correct, I would suggest that some record be kept of these important matters? I also asked this question:

(c) Total amount of second recleaned scalpings shipped from same.
To which the answer was:
From public terminal elevators, 3,705 tons; from government elevators, 633 tons.
From further answers it will be noted that there were 7,000 tons and 44,000 tons, showing that there is a very large quantity of these screenings and scalpings dealt with by the elevators.
What I am going to say now is not assertive; I am not in a position to assert, and yet I am fully satisfied in my own mind that it is the case. The cream or the valuable grain seeds in these screenings is appropriated by the elevator companies, and pooled by them and shipped, to Minneapolis. I wish the minister would note what I say in that regard. I want just simply to assert that as in my opinion correct, without having under my hand proof. The minister will find if he will request his commission to make an investigation that what I say is true. If it is true, then it is not a square deal to the shipper; that is all there is to it.
Let me turn to another phase of this elevator question, and again I do not advance what I am going to say in the way of an attack on the elevator companies so much as an argument on the question of system. Under the Grain Act the grain commissioners fix a charge for the use of the elevators-for the elevating of the grain, for fifteen days storage, and so forth. Now, under the figures that I gave this House, over a period of years, it was shown that the elevators got a return on capital invested of about 8 per cent without taking into consideration either overages or screenings. Plus screenings, and leaving out overages, their return amounted to about 13 per cent. Taking an average through, including overages, their return ran into enormous sums which varied and went as high as 75 or 80 per cent-very high earnings. Now, what I am getting at is this: Those screenings, did not properly, in equity, belong to the elevators. They may by the distortion of the law, perhaps, establish an ownership; but I want to say that in the spirit and intent of the law, and in equity, they did not properly belong to them. That being the case, I am perfectly sure of my ground in that regard, what I am getting at is this: If the elevator companies can show that if they are deprived of the revenue from screenings they cannot earn what is a reasonable return, then it is the duty of the Grain Commissioners to fix their fees so that they can earn a reasonable return. But I know this, that if you add the

Supply-Trade and Commerce
overages to the returns by fees their earnings are not only sufficient but very very large. I argued in 1919 and 1920, and I argue to-night, that the duty of the grain board is to fix the elevator fees at a figure that will give to the elevators a proper return for the services they render, whatever that may be decided upon; but in so far as the overages and the screenings are concerned, they should not be permitted to become a part of the revenue of the elevator companies.
JVlr. BROWN: If I understand rightly there was an amendment to the Grain Act that allowed the government to appropriate all over a certain percentage of the overages. Is that being carried out?


Henry Herbert Stevens: As far as I know it is.


Mr. BROWN:: Then, of course, the overages cannot now be anything like they were in former days.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I am glad my hon. friend-


James Alexander Robb: Before my hon. friend deals with that, I should like to mention that the government owns but a very limited percentage of the storage at Fort William and Port Arthur; there is a large part of it owned by the men who ship grain there from co-operative companies.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I want the minister to realize that I am not directing this as against government operation at all but against the
system.


James Alexander Robb: The elevator system?


Henry Herbert Stevens: Against the whole elevator system, the control and handling of grain at the head of the lakes. In answer to my hon. friend for Lisgnr (Mr. Brown) I may say that in 1919 I brought to the attention of the House this frightful abuse of privilege, and I showed by figures definitely how these overages were made up and the enormous quantity. I showed, I think, beyond contradiction-in fact the figures were never questioned

that something over $15,000,000 worth of grain in the preceding few years had been appropriated at that time contrary to the act. I took the stand at that time that I take tonight-


Charles A. Stewart: Is that in overages?


Henry Herbert Stevens: In overages. I took the stand then, and I take it to-night, that we as a parliament should never have allowed the elevators to retain those overages. I am aware the elevators will say, "Oh, we are making a shortage and we require overages to make up the shortages." But the figures I gave were the net figures, after allowing them to cover their shortage. As a matter of fact, the amount of shortage returned is only a modicum of the amount of overage that yearly accrues, and if the House, or any member interested, will take the two, from 1912 down to the present time, the last 11 years, I venture to say the shortage will not amount to two per cent of the overages so that it is a negligible quantity. Well, I argued that those overages should not be allowed to be retained by the elevator companies, and I showed at that time that the permission to retain them was in itself an inducement to create the overages-


James Alexander Robb: Hear, hear.


Henry Herbert Stevens: That- was the crux of the whole business, and that was why I sought to have the law, as it was then, observed, because according to the law they were not permitted to have them. However, in 1919 the hon. member for Marquette (Mr. Crerar), Mr. Maharg, then member for Maple Creek, Mr. Reid, then member for Mackenzie, and some other hon. gentlemen questioned the advisability of the stand I took and they attacked me. Well, I am of rather a forgiving and merciful nature; I desire to forget those things. Anyway, they took exception to my stand and they made this declaration: They said that speaking for the farmers of the prairies they felt there was no particular abuse in that regard, and they suggested that one-half of one per cent should be permitted to the elevator companies. Well, that did not seem very much and when one says it quickly, without giving it any thought, one-half of one per cent sounds a pretty small quantity. But now what do we find? We find this: Not only do they retain one-half of one per cent, but there is an impression that they do something else. The one-hal. of one per cent has no basis in law or in equity; it is simply an arbitrary figure fixed; there was no logic in fixing it and no reason; there were no previous figures on which it could be based; there were no lack of earnings on which it could be based-there was absolutely no basis for it at all but an arbitrary basis. Well, they not only take their one-half of one per cent, but there is a grave suspicion that some at least-I will not say all by any means

(hat some at least treat the excess, or much of the excess ab; ve the one-half of one per cent in other ways more devious and dark than visible, and the practice of dockage is going on to almost as great an extent, I think, as ever. Therefore, when this commission sits



Supply-Trade and Commerce
I believe the main question for it to consider is the making of such regulations, and the providing of such fees, as will remove this abuse and remove the temptation

shall I say?-the inducement to extract from the grain at the head of the lakes this illegal tribute-or inequitable tribute because it is made legal by the amendment I referred to.
But that is not all. You have got to go further back than that. You have got to go back to the country elevator and you have also got to meet a similar situation there because, as anybody knows, the grain is frequently either bought outright there or, if it is not, a dockage is made on the country elevators. So that the commission has a very important duty to perform, and I believe this: It will be found, without very much trouble, that a substantial increase of the return can be given to the shipper; and after all when you take into consideration this great problem-and I think that most of us realize that it is one of the most gigantic problems we have facing the commercial life of this country-after all there is no short cut to the increase of value to the farmers of the plains; there is no mystic wand that you can wave to get them a higher price for their wheat. You are going to get a higher price for the farm products of the prairies by lowering the cost of moving the goods to the seaboard, more perhaps than in any other way, and it does not matter so much whether that is in the way of lowering freight rates, or lowering of handling charges, or what not, but what I do say is this: we have got to check every detail of the process, and it is quite an expensive process.
You take your grain from your threshing machine, you haul it to the country elevator, and there is a certain amount of leakage, shrinkage, and such like, and fees charged for. It is shipped then to the terminal, and there is a certain amount of dockage, transfer fees and so on. It comes down the lakes and is retransferred at Port Colborne or some other point, and there you have another charge. It goes to Montreal, and must be loaded from the ship, transferred to the elevator there, and after that, if you follow the thing through, and you have charges for warehouse receipts, bank interest discount and insurance, it will soon mount up to a measurable margin between what it brings in the ultimate market and what is received by the farmer. So that the duty of the department, and what we were trying to get at two years ago through the commission which was appointed, and what I hope we will accomplish by the next commission, is to so check over the process so that the actual cost will be reduced to a minimum,

safeguarding the' legitimate rights of those doing the business, but that every measure of waste that is now going on, every shrinkage, every, dockage that is not absolutely essential shall be eliminated, and where any dockage is made that every pound that belongs to the farmer shall go back to him.
Take a carload of wheat of, say, 1,000 bushels; there is a 5 per cent dockage which means 50 bushels. Fifty bushels in comparison with 1,000 bushels is very small, but there is no reason why it should be ignored. Or, we will take it another way. Suppose that out of that 50 bushels there are 30 bushels of good grain-and I believe I am about right in suggesting that that is the case in most intsances-that 30 bushels of good grain may be cracked or it may be this, that and the other, it may not be No. 1, but it will be, at least available for first class feed. That is of value to the farmer. It might only represent a few dollars and may not seem a very serious matter, but when you add to that, as I have already pointed out, a little shrinkage here and a little overcharge there, it means a big thing in the long run and in the aggregate to the farming community.


Mr. LUCAS:: In the hon. member's opinion are the elevators entitled to any dockage whatever?


Henry Herbert Stevens: The hour is getting late and I really do not want to pursue the subject. I will say no. In making that categorical answer, I am quite aware that I am opening up quite a field of discussion, but the point I have been endeavouring to make-and I think it ought to be the objective of any inquiry-is that the elevators are entitled to a fair remuneration for the services rendered. That remuneration ought to be fixed for them under the Grain Act. It is always a dangerous thing, I do not care what business it is, to permit any person to have the privilege of extracting a portion of a commodity handled as a part of his fees for handling it, whether it is wheat or any other commodity. It is not done in any other line. You do not let the railway company take part of the goods as a fee for transportation. We fix a rate for them to charge. We do not let a railway company take part of a carload of wheat to pay for possible losses on the trip. We say to them "You deliver that cargo at the head of the lakes, and deliver it at so much a hundred pounds." That is all they will get. I do not see why an elevator company, which is a common carrier, should have any different method of remuneration than a railway company, because both are common carriers.

Sup-ply-Trade and Commerce


Robert Forke: There is this difference, that there is a loss in weight in handling grain that must be provided for.


Henry Herbert Stevens: There is a loss in weight in transportation.


John Livingstone Brown: You would not approve of the regulation of the grain commission whereby, in the case of a car carrying 3 per cent dockage, the elevator remunerates itself by taking the 3 per cent.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I do not think it is fair to the shipper at all.


John Livingstone Brown: It is a question of toll or money charge.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Let me put it in this way if you ship a car load of goods to a man, it may be boots or shoes or anything else-let us forget wheat for a minute-and he has the privilege of dealing with those goods, and of retaining for himself a certain quantity, say
3 per cent, he is going to see that he gets the 3 per cent, if he can. If there is any possibility of him getting it, he is going to get it. If you eliminate that feature you eliminate the temptation to him of extracting anything.


James Alexander Robb: I shall direct the attention of the commission to the remarks of my hon. friend.


Donald MacBeth Kennedy: What is the status of the Manitoba litigation in regard tc the Grain Act?


James Alexander Robb: It is before the court.
