Toronto, April 24.--To "put a limit on the borrowing power of Govern- n y from abroad," is a .| eral, which goes to show the esteem Newnham, Canfield; Elwood Perth; Tommy Coleman, Bothwell; time by 8.8. 23, King, Ont. ada, a group of enthusiastic young Liberal women learned on Saturday night from W. H. Moore, M.P., when he addressed the Cairine Wilson Lib- eral Club at its annual dinner and election of officers at the Heartstone Tea Room. Mr. Moore discussed "Economic Liberalism" with his audience, stressing the need for closer check by the people on the actions of their governing bodies. Governments should be compelled to give up certain services when they proved that they could not run them efficiently and economically, he felt. "The Government is already operating natural resources, railways, steam- ships, hotels, barber shops, and even the family washing," He also point- ed out that, although corporations were created by Governments, no supervision or control was exercised. He said in twenty-four hours he could secure a $30,000,000 charter for a company without any future super- vision, but if he desired to erect a five-story building in Toronto it would take him weeks to get his plang "O. K'ed" by the city, Touching on Governmental expendi- tures, Mir" Moore looked over the Queen's Park situation. The Provin- cial Government, he said, was going yearly more deeply in debt. He de- clared that for the past twenty years the Government had spent $156 on the average évery year, for every $100 it had collected. He wondered how long this could continue. Miss Floretta Prichard, in introduc- ing Mr, Moore referred to him as "one of the Nation's leading econo- mists." Miss May McGraw expressed the thanks of the members and guests to the speaker. ------, PP MEETING RE-AFFIRMS DECISION TO EVICT ALL RELIEF TENANTS (Oshawa Times) Following the regular meeting of the Oshawa Property Owners' As- sociation, held on Friday night in the Genosha Hotel, it was announced by Lew.
