It might also surprise many to know how large a number of radio owners were proud of the premier as they listened to the remarkable address he made and noted his wide grasp of world affairs and his keen and heartfelt interest in Canada and the Empire. Not only is it a good thing that Canadians should be proud of their premier on an occasion like this, but it is equally well that they should speak of their pride. For the past two years the premier of Canada has borne a load of blame and critiâ€" cism, perhaps greater than heaped upon any premier of this country in its history. He has been condemned for things he did and things he did not do, for things that might fairly be laid to his door, and for things with which there was no fairness nor right to saddle him. Everyone seems to have had some fault to find. Nearly everyone is to blame for criticism, just and unjust, heaped upon the present premier. ‘The times have been so serious that everything done or unâ€" aone seems serious. The nerves of the people for once are on edge, and the result is that the responsible ministers of the Cabinet néed a quietness, a forbearance and a good huâ€" mour that seem to be too much to ask of human nature under the strain that must be created by conditions of toâ€" day.

I think that what imprese me most was the evident sincerity of the premier of Canacs and the abiding loyalty that seemed to be his both to the Empire and to Canada. I confess that I was proud of Hon. R. B. Bennett and of the fact that he is the premier of Canada at this time." These thoughts seem to be common to many of those radio owners who listened to the addresses at the opening of the Imperial Conference. Of course, there were radio owners who took no interest in these addresses, and so soon as it was realized that speeches were coming in they immediately turned the dial so that something more agreeable to them, such as dances music or whatnot, might replace what to them was not at all attractive. It would surprise many, however, to know how great a proportion of radio owners are genuinely interested in serious affairs and in able addresses such as those that marked the opening of the Impet Timmins, Ont., Thursday, August 4th, 1932 OIlC miaArn, _‘ To the ave 1€ J€ W O rty irsday he Vorcugine Advance 1l Y who listenedâ€"in rial Conference proval of the | resting also in this connection to note how Canaâ€" e past have had reason for pride in their several Even the most stubborn Reformers were proud of ..

The demands of the alien agitators have been so senseless and so patently poliâ€" tical propaganda for an unfriendly foreign nation that no loyal men could pay any attenticn to the suggestions made. The reds have so monopolized and capitalized the names of labour and workers and unemloyed that whenever these words are mentioned there is naturally a visicn conjured Taoreont North! those employed. It helps all other lines of business and inâ€" dustry with some chance to keep the staffts from the need of relief. The country has a return for the money expended both in the helping of business in general and in the fact that needed public works are constructed ready for more prosperous days. One of the causes of the present troubles has been that debts have been contracted in prosperous times to be repaid when ill days come. Public works are comâ€" menced when costs are high and paid .for when times are low. To reverse this poor procedure and at the same time to kill unemployment by providing work for allâ€"thatâ€"not direct reliefâ€"seems to be the only logical remedy.

This is what is termed antiâ€"climax. Some weeks ago The Northern Tribune classed The Advance with The Toronto Star. Nothing matters maintain proper standards of living. On this point, the Pembroke paper says:â€""One thing is sure, that it will be a painful shock to patriotic Canadians should the‘ British delegates fail to act as Canada, Australia, Newfoundland, South Africa and New Zealand want them to act." The North Land has a much keener interest in the matâ€" ter of the unfair form of competition from Russia than most people appear to realize. Russia‘s policy of dumping goods at any price that they may bring applies to Russian lumber. The dumping of Russian lumber on the markets of the world has done much to paralyvyze the lumber industry in civilization continue if Russia succeeds? If Russia can dump her lumber and wheat upon the British market so that Canadians cannct compete can Canadian standards of living be maintained?" The answer to the question of The Stanâ€" dardâ€"Observer is a decided "No!" The issue then arises as to whether the British Isles is ready to assist Canada to maintain proper standards of living. On this point, the almost worth while. ,Expecting only the inspiration of asâ€" sociation with gifted men is asking too little of the conâ€" ference, however. If from the discussions and consideraâ€" tions the one point so ably presented by Hon. R. B. Bennettâ€" the removal of the unfair competition of the slave products of Russiaâ€"be granted, the conference will be assuredly a success. There is suggestion from Ottawa that the delegates from the British Isles do not favour the exclusion of Russia from British Empire markets. The Fembroke Standardâ€"Obâ€" server in dealing with this question puts the situation very aptly in a few words. "The question staring the Empire in the face," says The Standardâ€"Observer, "is will Christian civilization continue if Russia succeeds? If Russia can dump her lumber and wheat upogn the British market so that resent defence? The people of Canada do not desire direct elief. All those worthy of the name Canadian seek is the hance to look after themselves, This thought should be kept in mind. The people‘s money should be expended as the people wish, to some extent, surely. There are enough public works fairly crying to be done for the development and advantage of Canada to give employment to all Canadians here. It would seem to be the wish of the people that relief should come along this logicé,l way. Are the Governments going to continue to say of the wish of Canada, "It doesn‘t There are some people who expect too much from the Imperial Conference now in session at Ottawa., and some who expect too little. "Just a lot of talk," says one man who prides himself on being plain and unadorned. It may be noted that in discussion there is information and inâ€" spiration..

That does not mean a thing! Where is the money for direct relief to come from? Where will the five hundred and fortyâ€" three million dollars come from to construct the St. Lawâ€" rence Waterways? Where is the eighteen million dollars for the bondholders of the Abitibi Canyon power project? Phere are millions upon millions of money available for all sorts of things it would seem. It does not mean thing! The very politicians who can hold up their hands in hcrror it the thought of ten or twenty millions of dollars being exâ€" for needed public works to create employment speak ‘almly and coolly of hundred of millions for their own plans. if hundreds of millions do not mean a thing to the average nan, they seem to mean less to politicians.
