Suffrage Still Remote
For Women of Quebec

OTTAWA. Ont women Of the
province of Quebec, who are predomi-
nantly French Canadian, are long
way from getting the provincial fran
chise-and they. apparently. are not
worrying.
Only recently the members Of the
Quebec Legislature solemnly debated
whether the franchise should be given
to the women Of the province and when
the roll was called the proposal was
defeated. there being So against the
resolution, including Premier L. A..
TaSchereau and most of his cabinet.
. The principal speech against woman
suffrage was made by Arthur Belanger,
liberal member for Lewis. He argued
that woman was queen Of the home
it being her place and the children her
first care. Men had their own role in
the world, and in Quebec at least the
role of woman was maternity. Women
might not vote. but neither could
judges or Indians. Intelligent women
exercised a profound influence on pub
lie affairs, but did 1t indirectly, he said
Quebec is a most conservative prov
ince. devoted to her traditions When
the Legislature voted the galleries were
filled with women. who displayed in
tense Indignation not SO much at the
decision. which they expected but at
the blunt remarks Of the member for
Lewis. who stoutly stuck to his guns
that woman's place is in the home.

death of Sir George E. Foster recently
indicates that time is inevitably draw
ing closer the ranks Of Canada's little
band of knighted gentlemen.
In the benches of the Senate and the
House Of Connie ons titles used to be
common. Not any more.
Sir Allen Aylesworth is now the only
one left to carry on the traditions Of
knighthood in the Senate. while in the
House Of Commons there are only Sir
George H. Perley and Sir Eugene Fiset
and, of the two. only Sir George Perley
is really active in the public life Of the
dominion.
Outside Parliament. as well, the
knights who were politicians are be-
coming rare under Canada's demo-
cratic plan. Sir Thomas White is i'm
mersed in private affairs, Sir Henry
Drayton runs the Ontario liquor con-

years and honors. does his days work

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
If the South African government falls
it will be due indirectly to DR.. KEN
merer Ct Princeton and DR.. Vissering,
former chairman of the Netherlands
Bank In 1924 these two economists
adduced reasons why. in their opinion,
it was imperative for South Africa
to remain on the gold standard ire
spective of Great Britain or any other
nati-n with which South Africa might
be linked in any way. Their principal
reasons were, first, that as the leading
producing country Of the world
it was to the interest Of South Africa
to do everything in its power to main
tain gold as the currency besis OF the
world, and, second, that god must al
ways be a much more stable standard
than sterling or any other managed
currency.
A few months before Britain returned
to the gold standard in 1925 South
Africa announced that whatever course
sterling might take South Africa would
be established en- a gold basis. AS it
happened the return of South Africa
to the gold standard conceded with
similar action by Great Britain. so
that the effect Of the two countries be-
ing on a different standard has never
been experienced until this year.
Trade With Britain Diminishes.
South Africa chose to remain on the
gold standard when cur principal Gus
toner was off. That presented vast
difficulties.
When the British crash came South
