`(U1 SUCCESS. A toast to the Legislature of On bario was proposed by J. E. Jamie- `. son, ex-M.P.P., and responded to by Dr. Smith, of Creemore, M.P.P. for South-West Simcoe. There are. he said, grave problems before all leg- ixslativwe bodies. The province will in May retire 12 million dollars worth of bonds bearing six per cent. A citizen died the other day worth two million six hundred thousand dollars A great deal of this was in succes- sion duty free bonds. Such things should be prevented. Cana s bond- ed iudebtedness amounts to about elght billion dollars, which means about $800 mortgage on every per- son in the Dominion. The question of refunding bonds is a live one and it is time that something was done, voluntarily or otherwise. Som. say that Canada is over-{:overne(l, but the county council is indispen- sible. Canada is a diversied coun try, With varied problems, and it is ' necessa.r_\' to have di`e1-ent le;;isla tive bodies. l\ln`im- l\'nn\\'l.n-,< nv-nnncml n +nnc+ (Continued from page one\ The Barrie Branch of the Can- adian Le_mi~on made application for :1 grant of $150.

S. .\Io1'den,I{.C`., p1'esiden`t, said that ethc tendency to increase wages articially and sho1'tr:.11 h-owrs of work was to load the dice against the farmer and other priniary pro- ducers. Indust1'_v, he said. had dur- ing the past two _Vea.1`s made a great advance from the low point of world depression. It had g'1'ea:tly in- creased its output and the number of is em_n1oyee.s, and would continue to incveasne both if it were not hamp- ered by unwise laws, unfair com- petition from outside and crushing taxation. \X71...,w~. \`\`|r\`1 ~24. ....~....J _ ;__L1 ,,, 1 Lilxill/I011.

The alternative to this procedure was to keep costs as low as possible and by doing so to sell goods at the lowest prices which wenje economicz1.l- ly possible.
