F armers in Saskatchewan, with the co- operation of the Federal government, have suc- ceeded in having written off upwards of $50,000,000 in farm debts and having voluntary agreement made with loaning companies fer the - _ . . . ‘,,, J‘Lo.. no ll nut, reduction of interest rates for debts sun ouv standing. Premier W. J. Patterson of Saskatchewan was in Ottawa some time ago and the announcement of completion of arrangements was made recently by the Financial Post. The Post, in its report of the agreement, says: "The Federal Government . . . conceded to the Prov-: ince a portion of the relief money the Province‘ owes the Federal Treasury. The Province con- ceded a like amount to the farmers in various forms of debt owing the Government, such an seed-grain loans and other agricultural ad- vances. The mortgage men are believed to have agreed upon a percentage of reduction of debts owing them, cut-off dates being 1980 and 1986," which probably means much of the debt as- sumed over the five-year period "has been wiped Lerrr REDUCTIONS IN SASKATCHEWAN off." When in the East, Premier Patterson ex- plained the policy of his government was con- fined to obtaining reductions in the private) debts of drought-stricken farmers. No aid was asked for his province in connection with its $186,000,000 debt. The premier strongly con- demned repudiating of debts contemplated by Premier Aberhart, which he declared would be injurious to the credit of the Western Prov.. inces. By negotiating in a common-sense man- ner with the loaning companies and the Federal government, Premier Patterson is believed to have made far greater debt reductions than Alberta, all of which is a step toward protecting the credit of the Province. In the appointment of Hon. Newton Rowell, K.C., as Chief Justice of Ontario, the Federal Government made a wise choice. He succeeds Sir William Mulock, who resigned owing to ad- vaneing years after filling the position with credit for a long period of Yeyp. Mr. Rowell is a past-president of the Cana- dian Bar Association and for years recognized as one of Canada's outstanding legal and eonati- tutional authorities. A man of excellent eharae- ter, he possesses a keen judicial mind and should, filrhis high oflieepvithyietireion. Mr. Rowell was leader of the Liberals in the Provincial Legislature for years, and in 1917, in order to further the cause of the Allies in the Great War, he put Empire before party considerations and joined the Union Govern- ment under Sir Robert Borden. Chancellor Hitler, in discussing the future of the German army, said its objective was swift mobility of 70 miles an hour or more. That this is possible is indicated in an incident at the Franco-Belgian border the other' day. Gaining possession of a fast army tank in Bel- gium, smugglers crashed through frontier barriers and on to their destination in France at 70 miles an hour. On their return a border patrol erected a heavy ambuscade but the speed- ing tank got through, while its steel sides pro- tected it from machine gun bullets. T Swift movement of troops and fighting equip- ment in future wars is not a fantastic dream and those who live to see another European war will experience the wholesale destruction pos- sible as a result of great improvement in war equipment on land, sea and air. $1,452,850,565 is the gross total bonded indebtedness of all municipalities in Canada for 1934, according to a bulletin issued by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. In Ontario the total " as $482,952,700 and in Quebec $665,218,- 160. Per capita the bonded indebtedness in Nova Scotia was $64.97; New Brunswick, $64.90; Quebec. $19221; Ontario, $147.76; Manitoba, $129.64; Saskatchewan, $60.87; Alberta, $103.26, and British Columbia, $244.63: Tul Wit-limo Cum- Strict economy was the watchword of many municipalities. The unemployment and relief problems, however, were largely re- sponsible in recent years for the large increase in indebtedness. Farmers in the three Prairie Provinces, according to tho estimate of the Winnipeg Free Press, received, as at Sept. 14 at elevator points, $272,682,474. This year's grain crop value is therefore greater than that of any other crop during the past seven years. A _ Two reasons for the increased value of the 1936 crop is that it had a higher average grade than any other crop in the history of the West, and commanded a better price. Prices for live- stock are also more satisfactory, cattle prices are better and hog prices higher. _ _ W Th fwéstérn hitters, ereept those in the drought areas. are benefiting from the better prices paid for grain. FV The question of bringing settlers to Sas- katchewan from England was considered by the Saskatchewan Immigration and Settlement Convention which met in Saskatoon last week. The chairman. Mr. Garnet C. Neff, K.C., sald he was fully impressed with tho idea of bringing to Canada svlcctivc British families. He do- clared if "e arc going to successfully battle the major problems of taxation, railway deficits and unemployment. there must be more people in Funds. not only to share the pment burden but tn cooperate in further development.

We fail to com- prehend the necessity for such a statement, especially when the topic under consideration had no reference whatever to politics. We can only ascribe it to the fact that the Mail and Empire, being an out-tand-out party political organ, naturally assumed that other newspapers have political bias too. This is undoubtedly true with Toronto newspapers, but in case of' the majority of srmm-eity and town papers throughout Canada, they retain a strict independence where political parties are concerned, reserving the right to praise or to criticize the actions of public men and governments according to the dictates of their edi- torial conscience. In inferring that the Reformer might be any kind of a political mouthpiece, the Mail and Empire reveals a decided ignorance of the present- day policies of weekly newspapers. COUNCIL! AND SLOT MACHINES 1 _ (Shncoe Reformer) The Bowmanville Statesman reports that the town council there has increased the license fee for slot machines from no to $26 and comments that "the new bylaw will likely have the effect of either tttrolish- ing the slot machines from town or at least garnering in considerable revenue for municipal purposes." It may do the latter but scarcely the former. Simcoe has a slot machine license fee of $75 and there is no indi- cation of the disappearance of these undesirable machines from the municipality, rather their number continues to increase. An important decision in this regard was handed down recently by Mr. Justice Hogg of the Supreme Court of Ontario, who confirmed the conviction of an Ingersoll man for operating a slot machine without a license, thereby upholding the town council's right to pass a bylaw requiring such license. Lloyd George, former British premier, after visiting Germany recently declared Hitler a great man. Ingersoll citizens last Thursday voted against the opening of beverage rooms and the town will remain "dry". L For the first time in history, both major American parties are fighting hard for the Negro vote. Until recent years, the Negro in the South was not permitted to vote. Premier Aberhart, Alberta's radical Social Credit leader, is alarming business men who foresee a serious writing down of assets or capital values. Western farmers will show a more optim- istic spirit with wheat selling at $1.10 a bushel, 22 cents above the minimum price fixed by the Ottawa government. England is strengthening her naval bases in the Mediterranean and will continue to exer- cise authority and protect communications from Gibraltar and the Suez Canal, The weather on the twenty-first of Septem- ber was fine and warm. And if some weather prophets are right, we will have this kind of weather for some weeks to come. The Woodstock Sentinel-Review recently issued a 52-page edition to mark its fiftieth anniversary. It is one of the brightest and best edited newspapers in Ontario. “ The Ontario Department of Education is to be commended for its effort to promote a greater interest for music among pupils in rural schools. It will tend to develop in the young folks a better appreciation of good music. The Waterloo and Kitchener Horticultural societies in years past have made considerable progress in educating the people of the com- munity in the care and beauitheation of home, gardens and lawns and deserve much credit. npprnvil. Mr. Vincent Massey, high commissioner to Great Britain. declined to he interviewed by re- porters, stating: “i am sorry to disappoint you, but I have nothing to say." It is refreshing to have one public man who does not talk too much.
