mather night and business phone 9801 day service residence phone 9820 iratcliffs hall was well filled on saturday evening to hear miss agnes mcphail member for south east grey william irvine m p tor wetaskawin alberta and angus maclnnis member for vancouver where lie represents the iauor group speak on the aims and beliefs of the cooperative commonwealth group the big crowd assembled were in tently interested and the speakers made very favorable impression on their listeners if one can judge from the comments heard after the meeting the chairman of the meeting was mr frank sangster who was instru mental in securing these speakers lor this district it was evident from the start that miss mcphail was the real drawing card and the one who held the centre of interest owing havine to catch a train in toronto at 11 oclock that evening for windsor miss mcphail spoke first and her exit from the hall at the conclusion of her speech seem ed to be the signal for a lot of people to get out and do their shopping as it was then after nine oclock wheat at so cents a bushel with an increased income from this source in alberta alone of 30000- 000 would be a realized fact if canada would go off the gold standard said miss imacpliail the speaker forecast im mediate return of comparative pros perity for the farmer and conse quently of all other trades busi nesses and professions in canada if money were issued not against gold ibut against the natural wealth of canada the goods and services the country is capable of de livering when the dollar which is not wealth but a symbol of wealth be comes the centre of our national life it is time for a change miss macphail declared prices follow the volume of money down if more money were issued and the quanti ty goods remained as at present prices would go up since about 520 in naper is built on the foundation of 1 in gold when gold is with drawn from the country by creditor nations a vast quantity of paper money disappears evaporates the volume of money in canada decreased rapidly also because when the depression started bankers tightened up decreased their num ber of loans and called in as many as possible bnt since the volume of goods did not decrease likewise prices naturally came tumbling down misled by party perhaps the farmer will not starve he can always eat but the depression is injuring his health and mind worrying all the time do you think the present methods of the government will get canada into the british market it will take more than their economic conference to do it we are blinded misled by i the party in power by a section of i the press that is deliberately out to mislead i am not afraid to tell you that we are going to get canada off the gold standard as a canadian i was extremely humiliated at the speech mr bennett delivered to the conserva tives in toronto that speech was a disgrace to canada just because mr bennett says foolish things however is no reason why i should believe him i used to think he didnt know any better but i dont think so now he has too much brain for that it must bo that he thinks we dont know any bettor mr bennett says going off the gold standard would be a calamity but some facts do not bear out his contention all countries have suf fered of late but those that stayed on the gold standard suffered a great deal worse than the others exporters suffer every exporter from canada loses 121 on the english pound agentina australia and denmark all went off the gold standard with england canada is the only stupid ono of the lot if those other coun tries only valued the pound at 365 it would bo nil right but they value it from 486 to 6 canada ex ports goods to great britain gets 10 say that is the canadian ex porter receives 3650 for the same goods the argentine would receive 60 it is the financial men wlio want to keep as near as possible to new york money who mado the ex change what it is through the government they get the people to pay it im asking it you like it well you put tho government in i wonder often at how passively people aro standing this artificial depression truth wins and if either mac- kenzlo king or the prime minister stands in tho way of truth it is just too bad for them the government could bring canadian money to par ity with english money in a month and increase by 25 per cent the in come of farmers commonwealth federation mr irvino defined tho new group as tho cooperative commonwealth federation which ho said is a penalty interest charges are reduced nomination day monday dec 26 in an effort to lend all possible assistance to the farmer tax payers of the township the whitchurch council at their regular meeting held on saturday enacted a bylaw which will lower the amount of the penalty clauses for delinquent tax payers while the former regulation pro vided that a penalty of five per cent straight be added to every tax bill not settled by dec 15th the new regulation says that the penalty shall be only two per cent between dec 16 1932 and january 15 1933 and after that date if they are not paid the penalty shall bo four per cent on the arrears the full text of the bylaws is published elsewhere in this issue approve cattle guards in answer to several requests from the canadian national rail ways for an expression on the wis dom and need if any for cattle guards at railway crossings and which the railways are seeking to do away with as an unnecessary thing this resolution carried un animously iratclifftoole that this council herein oppose the re moval of cattle guards in this town ship while a bylaw forbids the running at large of cattle on the highways animals are liable to leave and ream without being herd ed messrs naughton jenkins by letter advised the council that soinf municipalities of the county of york north of north york are go ing to apply at this session of county council to have the tax arrears of the municipalities looked after by themselves and not have them returned to the county treasurer the solicitors suggested it was a move in the right direction as it would prove more satisfactory to the municipalities and if whit church thought of having tlieir tax arrears collected this way the council should make application at the coming session of county coun cil to have powers now conferred on the county transferred to the town ship one weakness to the proposed change suggested is that the county is likely to be abetter collector than are the local councils and officials who may be open to politi cal influences and other pressure when it comes to enforcing collec tion arrearages council decided to move slowly in the matter and requested the reeve and deputy reeve o look in to the proposed change when the attend county council later in the month mi c 3 brodie who was un successful in his last appeal on his sheep claim appeared before council at the morning sitting he said the boys on the council had acted in a business way with him and that he never dealt with a better council according to the two awards made by government valuators sent here mr brodie is entitled to 54s for 41 sheep killed by dogs and damage to flock and on motion of councillors ratcliff and toole the treasurer was instructed to pay this amount all grants reduced councillors morton and deputy reeve rae moved a grant of 5 to the junior farmers

returning with usual supply lived whole life on one farm our deer hunters are gradually returning home each camp report ing varying success this year tho department forbid the use of dogs in chasing the elusive fleetfooted deer and the success to be had without the canines help is varied so far as stouffville hunters are concerned we believe they secured as many deer as in any year that they had dogs to help in tho chase for instance one camp composed o fletcher goudie arthur snowball t blizzard eddie thorn and earl howsam returned with their full quota and were gone only a week i they did their hunting between sud- 1 bury and sturgeon falls near a place lived labor group movement the entire agricultural country is working to day for practically nothing selling some products for less than the cost of production other business lines were suffering just the same as the farmer the many unem ployed are being kept by the tax payers which is very dishearten ing the kind of economy we are getting from the government is not good enough in declaring that capitalism is overcapitalized the speaker struck a responsive note with his listeners the macluno ago angus maclnnis labor imp from

mr moyer who purchased the place about 25 years ago and farmed there until ho retired to stouffville a ew years ago the farm now be ing occupied by his son although this farm is assessed to day for 5000 back in 1861 it was valued for assessment purposes at only 200 at that time it was the property of ono michael phklo who probably held the crown deed later tho placo became known as tho connor property although mr moyer purchased it from philip davis if the tax notice were obtainable for that early date 1861 it would likely show just as an amazing difference from todays taxation as does the

five peacefully lying in a herd while still others said the guides had them tehered to the trees read for them tethered to the trees read for pure amuseemnt talk designed to detract from the good marksman ship of the camp the goudie camp certainly cannot complain about having to hunt without dogs any way delbert holdens party which do not hunt so far north are not meet ing with such good success but the entire party is not home yet and they may still get their full quota so far delbert holden william reesor and irobt hare haive re turned with one big buck shot by mr holden in all

season was a quar tette composed of reg stouffer art forsythe and john davis and son ed of glasgow they camped near north bay and while the first to go from here they were first to return each with a
