Yesterday Toronto, Feb. 24.--"I some- | times regret mow I had not said 'no' even more frequently in 4 those days when counties were il requesting more and more Ppro- | vincial hizhways," Premier Henry told coun oads representatives lin committee yesterday after- ! noon. "We should not mortgage | the futnre too much, but pay as i we go.' ! . He 'would always recall with pleasure the eight years in which ic had directed the highway de- l')partment, be said. Had he not | refused highways as often as he | did the counties would be bur- { dened even more heavily than at § present, the former minister of | highways told the road dele- | gates. "I don't feel like standing here this afternoon and saying we didn't make mistakes," said the premier: "we wouldn't be human if we didn't make errors. It is true we have fallen on evil days, but out of the troubles I hope we may develop possibly a saner policy. I believe the trials of to- day will have compensating qual- ! jties in influencing our future ' plans. "IT am pleased 'intend to carry on, I was con- cerned for awhile with the thought you might cut down past the boupds of reason, by going too far with your economy. It isn't practicable to shunt down on all activity and add to unemploy- yment. I hope you will all go back to your counties with the assur- rance that the problems placed on your doorstep are well worth while and that youn have the hearty co-operation of the gov- ernment." Cities don't pay their fair share of rural road expenditure, assert- ed Geo. Pearson, ex-warden of Essex county and chairman of the 'Windsor Suburban Roads Com- mission. Farmers in Essex countv paid $39.11 per capita for rural roa Residents of Windsor and W erville paid only $4.32 per head "They paid $344,000 their share," he said. "On a ha the per capi cot to the dweller, they should. have $3.000,000." "1 don't thi doubt tha cit'cs should pay more of the hichwavs cost." said Sen- ator E. S. Little of London, "It ig their traffic which requires heavier construction of roads." 'It must be recalled that tities pay for afl their own streets," pointed out Mr. Macaulay. All resolutions submitted by the committee were unanimously tadopted. In addition the confer- nee carried by a small majority fa resolution moved by Mayor BAvery, st. Catharines, IM.

The ammuniiton division of Canadian Industries, 1.td., reports receiving many inquiries for price quotations on cartridges in mil- lion lots, but state that they are not interested as, the propositions | | Montreal. lack sofind backing and {those making them seem ill-informed. Tt is the opinion of all officials | interviewed that the men seeking nrice quotations for ammunition | for the Chinese army are soldiers | of fortune who are plam 4 { sell their services, both as mili- | tary leaders and as purchasing | arents, to the Chinese gove rn- | ment, Most of these free lance warriors come from New York, | it is learned, and they make new | enauiries almost daily. | "Frankly, we are not inte ed in this type of business," | the official reply «lf Can | Industries, Limited, when q | tioned as to the rumored a munition orders. "We are only interested in direct hnsiness and all approaches far in matter have been indirect and un- official." Canadian Tndustries, Limited. claims to be the only firm in Can- ada eapable of filling an order for war ammunition. Whiia deal- ers inh firearms and other mili- tary supplies are. reticent, it is claimed that orders for these are being secretly filled, the supposi- tion being that international soldiers of fortune, at present | having their headquarters in the United States, are seeking to ehuip a lezion of mercenaries for sarvice under the Chinese flag at a hizh price.
