Jesse Gibson of Toronto, one of the secretaries of the Censtnal Executive, `on the extent of the work which the Society .is doing, the Bibles issued, and the romance of translation. One statement he made which. was especially interesting was that dur- ing the past year the British and Foreign Bible Society had issued about 9,000,000 copies, or one copy for every third tick of the clock. Another remark was that one-tenth of the money devoted to Missions -should be given to the Bible Society to enable it to cope with the ever growing need, and to aid in the dis- : tribution of the Book of God. As new elds are being developed and the world becoming more civilized the demand increases and of course the funds required to supply the de- mand are greater and so the Society is in need of more money each year to carry on its work. ueul, uuu ueo.

He also stated that during the past four years the Government had been facing a period of reconstruction and a great unstability of thought, but that the policy of the Government had been sound, sane and conser- vative, and that economy did not simply mean not -spending, but spending wisely. He thought that if one would but contrast the highway system of to- day with that of four years ago the wisdom otf instituting of the present highway system would be plainly manifested. That the work done on the highways had been of an honest nature, not a sham construction, but one that would. give good re- turns in the future. After dealing with the social welfare question in a satisfactory manner, the Premier spoke at length on the timber ques- tion, and in so doing scored the Conservative leader, G. Howard Fer- guson, for his gross carelessness in handling the timber situation as Minister of Lands and Forests under the Hearst Government. The Prem- ier did not charge Ferguson with having derived any personal mone- tary profit from a nu-m'ber of the timber deals of the past, but did charge Ferguson with abuse `of patronage and gross carelessness. Other failures of the Ferguson man- agement were mentioned, as the Kwpuskasing soldiers settlement scheme, which cost the Goveumment nearly one million dollars in cash to adjust, al-so on Fer-guson vs an- nounced O.T.A. policy wherein he (Ferguson) had stated nearly `one year ago that he had worked out a tem-perance policy that would satis- fy all. The Premier classed this as another of Ferguson's gold bricks, and a bait only thrown out to mis- lead and the only policy that Fer- guson could advance would` be lax enforcement of the act as it now stands, while he (Drury) stood for the enforcement of the act as it now- stands on the statute books of On- ta~rio.. The Premier added force to many of his remarks on the timber question by reading from the re- cords of the Shevlin-Clarke Timber Commission testimony. I\...:__ i- 4| u - -- Lhu . 9 J1 1'5.
