He asked the House to contrast the inert-mm of expenditure at Ottawa under Conservative rule and the increases of expenditure in the provinms nndvr Liberal rule. The actual Federal increase in flveyezirs had been two per cem., where-is the provincial increases during that period had :iggreimted 3:3 per cent.
