"The victory for the United States| Government is acclaimed in official circles here, since Canada, according to estimates made by the Prime Mm-. ister, had to pay creditors in the Uniâ€" ted States $1,000,000 every working day in the year.

The essence of his conâ€" tention was that the measure was a taxation measure, that it required interâ€"provincial â€" administration, and that it had an important bearing upon conditions of competition for internaâ€" tional tradeâ€"all of which features brought it within the scope of Federal jurisdiction. Before arguing the constitutionality of the measure, the prime minister dealt with the Liberal leader‘s attiâ€" tude towards it. He wondered how he could consistently "cheer so vigorâ€" ously every possible reference to the impossibility of Parliament passing the legislation, be so vigorous in his approval of every word that was said against it, and then suggest that he favoured it." Gold Clause Ruling Saves Canada $100,000,000 a Year It came unexpectedly, the Liberals having decided to avoid any open exâ€" pression of opinion on the measure and the Government supporters not knowing that a poll of the House was to be forced. With this situation exâ€" isting, Mr. Bennett, in closing the deâ€" bate on the bill, declared: "The right honourable gentleman (Mr. King) has said that this legislaâ€" tion was intended to deceive and delude those for whose benefit it is being enacted, He says that they have asked for bread and they are beâ€" ing offered a stone. I propose, Mr. Speaker, to ask this parliament to vote whether or not those who allege that this is a stone are prepared to stand by théir view, or to associate with us on this side of the House and declare that this is bread,. and very solid bread,. to>." One Liberal only retained the cour-i age of his Opposition, and he did not vote because he was paired with an’ absent Conservative member. He was Jean Francois Pouliot of Temiscouata,.| who announced in accordance withi practice after the House had been polled, that if he had voted he would] have voted against the bill.

Although the new Government has a very large majority it is expected to be a lively, fighting session as the Conâ€" servative opposition has an experienced group of fighters left in the house. The new Government in Ontario has a majority of 70 in the Legislature. The Hepburn forces include 66 Liberals, four Liberalâ€"Progressives, and one United Farmer of Ontario. The Oppoâ€" sition is made up of 17 Conservatives, one C.C.F. and one Independent. The smpall band of Conservatives promise a fighting session. Hon. George S. Henry will lead the Oppoâ€" sition and criticize the Hepburn policy on agriculture and education. Col. W. H. Price will be chief financial critic and Leopold Macaulay will devote his attention to administration of the Departments of Highways and Public Works. George H. Challies will examine the administration of the Department Oof Provincial Secretary with its branch of Game and Fisheries.
