Bird, of Nelson, Manitoba, and E._ W. Lucas, of Camrose, Alberta, that protection was gaining ground amongst the farmers on the prairies. Mr. Bird admitted the fact more in` sorrow and perturbation than in speaking as himself a convert. It is no use running away from the fact that because it is ugly, Mr. Bird said. We may regret it, but we must face the fact that in recent years there has been a definite trend towards the idea of protection among the farmers. The farmers to the south have been protectionists for years, so why not the farmers of Manitoba? Mr. Lucas was even more signicant, admitting himself an advocate of at least one form of protection. Some Hon. members in this house repre.~:enting agricul Lure, Mr. Lucas said, have taken the stand that protection does not benet the farmer. I am free to admit that under the general prin- ciple of protection the farmer does not gain the benefit which is afforded industry generally. But on those commodities in which the farmer is not on an export basis I am of the opinion that he does get a benefit.

Inasmm-h an all plan M` ----c--- I ways According to the comptroller of the department, 64 level crossing ac- ` cidents took place during a ten `month period in 1929, while the number in the previous year was 77. This shows a decrease of 17 per cent. More signicant, perhaps, are the gures compiled by the Board of `Railway Commissioners, which show. for a five-month period, not only the number of collisions, but also the ex tent of the fatalities and injuries. `In corresponding periods of 1928 and `1929 the collisions numbered, re- ispectively, 44 and 30; fatalities, 39 jand 9, and injured 67 , '33 thus :1 (`lr-l`1`n:1an nf Quebec s regulation that all motor cars must come to a full stop at all unprotected railways crossings is evidently achieving the purpose for which it was enacted, namely, the reduction of tlie number of accidents due to collisions between trains and automobiles.

That would undoubtedly be effec- tives, but it would also be very ex- pensive. Just as `traic cops` have been replaced by automatic signals at crossings, so `motor cops should be replaced by mechanical speed- regulators in cars. Such regulators are already in use on motor trucks whose owners wish to prevent speed- ing. They should be attached to all motor cars, and switched into activ- ity whenever a motor car enters a ,zone where signs indicate that a certain speed limit is to be observed. When a lever is moved, or a button is pushed, the speed regulator should be made operative, and coincidently '1 light or other signal should apnear =on the front or rear of the mote. car, indicating` that the drive-1` is ,obeying the speed limit sign bC.'.`..:-; 5his car is `motor-cop` automatically preve i.:~.l {from exceeding the speed lizmt.
