week mr george spotton the conservative member for huron north and mr fiank boyes cons middlesex east extended their feli- itations to the government for the enactment of the farmers creditors arrangement act that piece of leg islation is considered one of the finest passed by the present govern ment farmers are looking upon it as a boon to their industry adjust- incuts with creditors already have been made and many requests have reached the government from on tario tillers of the soil for detailed information regarding the measure this is what has happened to many a farmer he is bowed down with a first mortgage of 5000 with 800 accumulated interest and is paying six and a half per cent he has a second mortgage of 1000 with 100 accumulated interest and is paying six per cent on it each year he has to pay 461 interest this farmer can go to the govern ment or in other words do business under the farmers creditors ar rangement act this would happen his 5800 mortgage would bo re duced to 5000 aifi he gets that for five years at tvce per cent the j400 mortgage would be cut to 1200 and he gets that for ten years at two per cent so that in stead of having an interest burden of 471 which no iirner eotiti bear he goes home happy making a new start in life with an interest charge of 174 the rhoucs ouuget was finally ratified by a vote of 98 to 74 last week in face of two opposition amendments which were beaten back by substantial votes in the divis ions one of the amendments was put forth by the liberals calling for an immediate election- five ufa and one progressive member i lined up with the government to snow this motion under by 104 to 73 i col arthurs member for parry sound told the liberals they were all wrong when they said tariffs would raise the price to

elabor ately into the implement question to show that prices are lower than in 1930 acting premier sir george ferley announced that mr bennett had been able to leave his bed on thurs day for a short time and wahk around his room it is not anticipat ed that the prime minister will be back in the house before the easter recess which is scheduled to begin about april 18 he probably will not appear before he returns from england where he will attend the kings silver jubilee anniversary celebration there is enough proposed legisla tion yet untouched to keep the house busy many weeks yet and there seems little or no doubt that the election will not come before the fall appointment of mr lou golden toronto barrister as general secre tary of the conservative dominion organization was made on

two days should have been wasted in a futile debate on the ques tion of the length of the easter re cess much important legislation is yet to be discussed in connection with the reform program liberal leaders are asking for an early elec tion the f labor and progres sive groups apparently do not want one until the business of the session is concluded judging by the 90 to 49 count that finally voted down the iapointe motion for a 7 day recess seven ufalabor members were counted in the government lobby the bill establishing the farmers creditors arrangement act has been returned to the commons by the se nate for concurrence in a few amend ments perhaps the most interesting amendment as far as the farmer is concerned is one which clarifies the situation with respect to whether or not the act applies to debts incurred after may 1st of this year it does but only when the creditor concurs third leading has been given the farm loan bill by the senate but this measure also has been sent back
