It is in this Throne Speech that the in- tentions for the Session are set. It is not necessary that all pol- fcies and legislation be em- bodied and many are left out, to" be dealt with later by Par- liament, as the Session pro- gresses. The Speech from the Throne, introduced on Thursday, May 16, proclaimed in the main, that Boards and Commissions would be 'set up to undertake respon- McKinnon Named Bank's Chairman TORONTO (CP)--N.

The Leader of the Official Opposition, the Rt. Hon. John G. Diefenbaker, spoke in the de- bate and very carefully review- ed the state of the economy at the time the Liberal Govern- mnt took office on April 22, He pointed out the excellent situa- tion the economy was enjoying and hoped it would continue and that nothing would be done to undermine it. He pointed out that the Gov- More Cargo Handled On Seaway OTTAWA (CP)--The St. Law- rence Seaway between Montreal and sry Pe Ontario handled 1,650,- 000 tons of cargo in April, a 75- per-cent increase over the cor- responding period of 1962, it was announced Thursday. It was the best opening month for cargo traffic since the sea- way and Welland Canal were of- ficially opened for traffic in 1959. The St. Lawrence seaway au- said the April cargo to- tal 1,650,000 tons compare with 938,000 tons in the corre- sponding month of 1962, Ton- nage was 1,230,000 tons in April, 1961, 858,000 tons in 1960 and 451,000 tons in 1959. Bulk cargo accounted for 1,- 475,000 tons and general cargo amounted to 175,000 tons. In the all-Canadian Welland _ NEW YORK (AP)--The stock market has bounced back--and then some--from the crash of 1962. In the year since the "Black Monday" of May 28 a sorely sick market has recovered ro- bust health, Actually, say experts on Wall Street, today's market is much more solid than the one that soared to an all-time peak in late 1961. The market has been nudging that level recently. After hitting its historic 1961 d| high in a frenzy of speculative stock buying, the market slipped for nearly six months and then collapsed with a thud heard around the world. The panicky trading on "Black Monday" and on May 29 and 31 (May 30 was a holiday) was later described by the New York Stock Exchange as '"'the Canal between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, traffic was up 3.7 per cent to 1,939,999 tons from 1,870,000 tons in 1962. Gen. eral cargo traffic remained sta- ble while bulk cargo was up slightly. ernment's responsibility was not to "get the economy rolling" but rather "to keep it going". It will be interesting to see what the results will be and what effect the Boards and Commissions will have upon the economy of this country. My role in Parliament is one of the Official Opposition, It is to be watchful of the expenses incurred by the Government, the legislation it proposes and introduces. It is also my respon- sibility to be critical (construc- tively) and to make suggestions for new legislation.

The 25-cent subsidy has been withdrawn on milk used for making skim milk powder and been replaced by a purchase program on skim milk powder. The payment on milk for but- ter and condensed milk has been withdrawn "on the pre- mise that such products should jor require federal subsidiza- tion.' nn Oe Suit ae SAM ROTISH 7 KING ST.

For the next few months the market wallowed with the badly burned smaller investors cling. ing to the. sidelines. But in October the market got a lift when the Russians agreed to remove missiles and bombers from Cuba in compli. ance with U.S. demands. From that point the market mounted an advance that was one of the sharpest and longest in history. WAS NO RECESSION tions were at an all-time high.
