[n 1933, as in the preceding three years, people generally experienced exceptional anxicty, the result of incomes being either impaired or entirely cut off. At such a time the un {ailing aid and security of life insurance proved of very great value. In this service the Sun Life Company bore a worthy share. During the year it paid out (exclusive of policy loans) nearly $100,000,000 to policy holders anfi beneficiaries. ®‘miâ€" larly, during the four years of depression it has paid out over $380,000,000, INCOME L .0. 0 o« o o DISBURSEMENTS > 1 Ni 4t AÂ¥} m EXCESS OF INCOME OVER I)I\Bl RSE MI PAYMENTS TO POLICYHOLDERS AND BENEFICIARIT RESER \ STRPLI Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada *A SS % ol hi by sound The valuaton of bonds and stocks the lnsuranc« Department of thi authorized by the Departments c Policy liabilities have been value« exacting than required under the L\i"'lr';"l!‘.(;ill?' these substantial payments, the Company, during the same fourâ€"yeat xd. increased its assets by $55.000.000â€"its insurances in force by over During the year 15 Since Orcanization Bonds: government, municipal, public utility an and common; loans on mortgages; real estate; Ic cash in banks, and other assets.

Mr. Bradette:; "I just wish to bring to the attention of the committee cerâ€" tain anomalies respecting public buildâ€" ings in the city of Ottawa and certain public works. I know there is a system in Ottawa, one which is growing conâ€" cerning men who are seeking work on the railways, on the Rideau Canal, or shovelling snow in front of public buildings. "If a man wants to get work on the Rideau Canal he has to go to the viceâ€" chairman or the chairman of the Liberalâ€"Conservative Association of Otâ€" tawa, and there he is asked if he is a Liberal or a Conservative. I am posiâ€" tive of these facts. Before a man is put on the list so that he may obtain any kind of work from the Government tion Building. Mr. Bradette had been under the impression that two ficors of Confederation Building were vacant. Mr. Bradette‘s charges were , made when Public Works estimates were beâ€" fore the House. in the Confederation Building was ocâ€" cupied. The amount of rentals in Otâ€" tawa was decreasing, being $100,000 less than before the various departâ€" ments had moved into the Confederaâ€" Mr. Bradette insisted his charge was justified, and declared his willingness to provide hundreds of names if necesâ€" sary. Hon, H. A. Stewart also took ‘the ocâ€" casion later to inform Mr. Bradette that practically all space of importance Hon, R. J. Manion, Minister of Railâ€" ways and Canals, admitted the Departâ€" ment of Raiiways and Canals followed the practice of accepting the recomâ€" mendations of the Conservative comâ€" mittee, but he asserted vigcrously he did not know of any condition whereby a man was required to pay a dollar before he could obtain a job. Positive denial of Mr. Bradette‘s statements was given The Jourmnal Monday night by Charles Hickman, president of the Ottawa Liberalâ€"Conâ€" servative Association. Denies Charge "There is absolutely no foundation to that," declared Mr. Hickman. "It is the most cutrageous statement I have heard," he said. Hon. H. A.

Cherles Marc!il (Li., Bonaâ€" venture), declared that in his constituâ€" ency no Liberal had been given a job on ordinary public works since the present Government took office. He made this charge only in connection with regular works, not with relief unâ€" dertakings. Mr. Bradette: "I wish to repeat there is a list of those belonging to the Liberalâ€"Conservative Association of the City of Ottawa. I do not agree with the principle ¢of a partizan system. There is this fact, however, that men whose names apear on the list have to pay a dollar. The Minister of Railways and Canals would not accuse the late government of adopting that practice." Dr. Manign: "I do ncot admit that it exists now, either." Mr. Bradette: "I repeat the statement that it does exist." Dr. Manion: "That does not prove Mr. Stewart, Leeds: "So far as the Department of Public Worns is ecnâ€" cernd I do not know of any such pracâ€" tice existing. J do know, however, that from time to time I receive complaints that we are empnloying tco many Liberâ€" als in connedtion with work of this kind." if the country were aware of the situaâ€" tion, and statements made by the Govâ€" ernment that there is no partizanship so far as the distribution of work is concerned, then the Government would be severely criticized."

Many of however, that ive complaints o many Liberâ€" not prove At a recent meeting of the Cobalt town council hints were dropped sugâ€" gesting that Cobalt might stage anâ€" other Old Boys‘ Reâ€"union there this summer. The matter came up in conâ€" nection with an application from an outside amusement firm for the priviâ€" lege of operating in Cobalt this sumâ€" mer. The reference made by the members of the council was more in the nature of a hint that plans for another reâ€"union event were conâ€" sidered than any direct statement of what was contemplated. It will be reâ€" membered that in 1924 Cobalt held an Old Boys‘ Reunion that was considerâ€" ec about as happy an event as ever stageod anywhere. It was successful from all standpoints, but especially from the viewpoint that everybody had a wonderful time and that Cobalt drew back its sons and daughters from all parts of the globs. The event this year, if held, would be in celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of the founding of the Cobalt camp. The fact that the Porcupine camp this year is making special observance of the twentyâ€"fitih anniversary of the Porcupine gold disâ€" covery would seem to be enough of such celebrating for the North for a year, but, of course, on the other hand the i1wo events would not particularly clash as they wuld appeal to different groups of neople, though Porcupine has a large quot. of former Cobalt people and few from Cobalt ever forget the "best old town" no matter where they may be, not even when they are in another town that they will admit in their sober moments to be as good or better than the "best." Cobalt Hints at Another Old Boys‘ Reunion There Many pecople have ‘been interestcd, some disgusted, and others hardly what to think or feel or say, in regard to the rafles, draws and simiâ€" lar events carried on in Canada conâ€" tinually with the implied consent of the authorities, but being against the law in the strict legal sense. The plan of giving the "informer‘" the prize that might be won by another has caused a number of cases to ‘be instituted by relatives and friends to keep the prizss in the family. This plan of the "inâ€" former‘" being given the prizes has seemed an easy way for the winner of some of the draws or raffies to secure legal right to what may have been won. As a consequence when there was a court case over a prize the general comâ€" ment would be "What relation is the informer to the prize winner?" Reâ€" cently, however, a case came up in Windsor where a man sued for a car won by a young lady. When it was discovered, however, that this was not a friendly action but ons in which the young lady concerned was to lose all right and title in the car won, everybody felt that the matter was not at ‘all a pleasant affair. As a help, however, to pecple keeping faith in the kindness of human nature, the man whose name appeared in the action to secure the car from the winner nameod, now comes forward to say that he does not want to be any "common informer‘"‘ and suggests that he will not take the car from the young lady. "I was told the suit was against the peoâ€" ple holding the draw," he stated last week. "I was to get $25.00 for the use of my name, but when I learned it was against the girl, I told them I would not stand for it, because it would be just like stealing." It would appear that there should be an investigation of this case to find out why any man is offered $25.00 to start an action of this kind. Who offered the $25.002 Why? And who was to get the car? Does Not Want to be Known as a "Common Informer" Sam Gobeil (Cons., Compton) deâ€" clared the charges brought by Liberal members of Conservative patronage with respect to relief works, could be directed against the Liberal Governâ€" ment in Quebec. There the provincial patronage officials did not even consult the municipal authorities when spendâ€" ing relief moneys of which half had been contributed by the Federal Govâ€" ernment, and Conservatives got poorly treated. When the present Minister of Railâ€" ways was in cpoosition he had been one of those who held up the Post Office estimates 21 days on charges of patronage, Mr. Veniot said. Dr. Manâ€" ion denied this charge. There was patronage in relief® works as well, Mr. Veniot said, although he gave the Minister of Public Works creâ€" dit for trying to stop it. He cited inâ€" stances of alleged relief work patronage in Gloucester County, and particularly with reference to snow removal from the railways, which Dr. Manion proâ€" mised to investigate. Admits Usirg Patronage Hon. Peter Venioct (Lib., Glouces said that since the Minister of R ways had been so frank he would equally so and confess that he, believed in the patronage system ordinary public works and had use when he was in the Governm "And if I have the honour to be b in the Government again, I will d "And â€"Hf ] in the G again," h It was specifically provided by orderâ€" inâ€"council that there should be disâ€" crimination in distributing relief work, the Minister of Public Works said, but the same provision was not made with respect. to normal public works, and never had been made by the previous or other Governments. "I do not intend to be hypocrite enough to pretend to prefer my eneâ€" mies to my friends when engaging men on ordinary public works," Dr. Manion declared. "But there is no discriminaâ€" tion on relief works. Generally speakâ€" ing, we do the same as our friends did when they were in power. We take the recommendations of those who are friendly." be gpplicable also to relief works, which Dr. Manion and Mr. Stewart vehementâ€" ly denied. | I have t ac added ‘‘Stock Offering of \ _ Goild Mines mm ns en ooo e w ons ie mm mmmmme n mmmemes .o o en The Ardeen main ore b increased widths and value is attained as disclosed b drilling down to 875 fect.
