Robertson, Minis- ter of Labor: Banking institutions might help by extending credits` granted industry whereby employ-, ment might be stimulated. Employ- ers could co-operate by distributing: available employmenm as widely as possible. Home owners and land- lords might have the exterior or their houses painted now and the In- terior during the winter months, when there is a surplus of labor-.' Railroads and other large pur-| chasers of supplies could buy cheap-' er now than later, z`.`". .` the saving in! cost compensating them for ad! vanced purchases. And lastly, we" can all help by buying Canadian goods produced by Canadian labor. EDITORIAL l In the British House of Commons, ,Colonel Andrew H. Gault-, D.S.O., Conservative member for Taunton, lwho organized the Princess Patricia Canadian Light Infantry in the war. raised a warning voice against the menace of dumped Russian imports in Great Britain. He said that lSoviet wheat was being delivered in the United Kingdom at a price less lthan half the cost of domestic pro- 'duction. He emphasized the fact al- lrcady well known" in this country Qthat Russia is carrying out thy.- dumping policy to get cash for pro- paqanda purposes, to create unrest V in the importing` countries, and thus to promote its favorite cause or world revolution.

Eve.`-nlj `this year the Soviet Republics grew}- imore wheat than the United States and 25 per cent. more than they did before the World War. `Two years ago they exported no wheat; las: lyear they exported 40,000,000 bush- ! els.

It is perhaps too early denitely to declare that rthe tariff increases are directly `responsible for the un- doubted improvement, but we may feel assured that rthe sentimental ef- lfecwt of rthe tariff policy has been an essentially practical inuence. The extent of the past year's trade depression is painfully demon- strated by the Canadian National Railways preliminary report showing a decline of $40,000,000 in gross revenue, and a reduc-tion of $30,- 000,000 in operating costs. `The economie-s put into force to meet; thc declining revenues are highly com- mendable, n-0-twilthsftanding rthat thousands of the company s em ployees were unfavorably affected Even a government railway must he operalted on sound business lines, otherwise the consequent decit would -have to be met from the cen- tra.-l treasury of the government. In respect to `the decline in -gross revenue, and its signicance towards the shrin.kag'e of business of all de-I scription, we must remember, how-. ever, that the year s results are con- trasted with -a previous year of very V lconsiderable activity, in spite of the|` -withholding of grain in the early l crop moving season of 1929.

He says humbug unmindful of the fact that for more than twenty years Canada has given a lotally unreciprocated preference to British manufactures. He says humbug when all that is asked by] Canada in return is a fair market for the basic product of the senior Dominion in the Empire partnership.
