' l be In allowing the customs enquiry to 3 it `be_`take'n up _by a committee of parliae :or `meat, instead of by a commission of 1 or judg-es,the Government made a tac-' r- ,tical blunder.. It was impossible to, 18` hold an investigation under such cir-I Eta cumstances without the members It having ever in mind-the political ef- >- fect of the evidence. A; probe by judges would have .eliminated that feature and would haveensured an` impartial pronouncement on the ev- idence adduced. This is what the} people want-an unbiased report on H the administration of the customs de.-I partment not only during the Liberal -regime but `before that time, for few! are simple enough to believe that the , irregularities did not exist prior to the advent of Bureau. The search-I light should be thrown wide enough to dis`close all the wrong-doing in, connection with this department. It is reported that the Progressives will insist upon a thorough investigation by three judges. . Had this plan been` followed, the King Government would 1 stillbe holding the reins of power. I Among Liberals there is much crit- _ icism of the course taken by the Gov- ernor-General in refusing to grant , dissolution when it waserequested by i the Premier. `To support them in. this I . attitude they have . the opinion of such an eminent constitutional -auth- ority as John Ewart. He holds that E the i.p_g`;o.4vernor-General was constit- ' utiorially bound to accept the advice" of the Premier unless there were cir- cumstances which would justify re-I _ _fusal, and which Mr. Ewart holdsldid not exist in the present case. As the ! 1 Conservatives have not a majority in the H'ous;'Mr. Meighen may be de- feated. If` this should occur, Mr.` Ewart holds that the Governor-Gen- eral could not grant him dissolution without a violation of constitutional principles. The question of respons- ible government is considered by, many Liberals to '-be `involved and` this issue promises to bulk very large .- in,the next election campaign. ` Tn Mr, Vina um: I.:.. f`..`k:...-L Lu.-.
