Since the Faster recess, I worked as hard as I possibly could so as to organize a Cood Will tour in Northern Ontario of federal members, senators, their wives and friends. It was my inâ€" tention to have this party leave Ottawa on the evening â€"~of «+26th ofâ€" this month, with our own train, had I been able to get one hundred persons. or more, for that trip; arriving at Kapusâ€" kasing the following afternoon, visiting Cochrane the following morning, going to Iroquois Falls during the day, and also Timmins and the Porcupine disâ€" trict in the afternoon and evening, with visits to the mines.

Every one must thrive with all their might so that agriculture should be raâ€" tionalized in our section.â€" With good regional markets, and enlightened manâ€" agement of farming activities, coupled with good soil as we possess, and cliâ€" matic conditions that still leave someâ€" thing to be desired, but which are imâ€" | proving from year to year, our agrarian ,population should be more prosperous than it is at the present time. Governâ€" ments should get together so as to allow our farmers better marketing and storage facilities for all their producâ€" tion. A healthy sign of improvement that I have noticed during the last few years has been accomplished in the dairy industry, in not only supplying the fresh milk and cream requirements of centres of population such as Kapusâ€" kasing, Cochrane, Smooth Rock Falls, Iroquois Falls, the whole of the Porcuâ€" pine and Kirkland mining districts, but also the erection and maintenance of butter and cheese factories in the rural sections of Kapuskasing, Cochrane, Nahma, Matheson, Val Gagne and Ramore, which in operâ€" ating have done a lot of good to those’ district. The quality of the productl that they produced was of the first choice, and the regional market almost unlimited. The town of Timmins alone last year brought the full production of three cheese factories around Cochrane. Whoever has tasted the fine filavoured butter of Moonbeam, Val Gagne, Matheson and Ramore does not want to use any other kind. As to the Chedâ€"| dar cheese produced in our section, its | quality can not be surprassed anywhere . else in the country in flavour, body and texture and once you have tasted it also, you will not want any other kind.

Well, on this score, there must be a great big differâ€" ence between the Premier of this counâ€" try and Herr Hitler for instance. In dealing with the present session, there is the psychological effect, occasioned by the session of 1937 that must also jbe considered. I believe that I menâ€" ,tioned this factor earlier this session. as I expected the present one to be rather lengthy, due greatly to the brevâ€" ity of the last one. Last year on acâ€" count of the Coronation the session was over before the end of April, and naturâ€" ally quite a fewâ€"M.P.‘s thought that theyâ€" had not been given any opportunity to voice their opinions on national and international questions, which they beâ€" believe they are dutyâ€"bound to bring forward this session. Of course to my viewpcint, the best way to shorten and render the federal sessions more busiâ€" j nesslike would be to abolish Hansard altogether, but after all, it is the naâ€" tional forum, and I feel that one would be ill advised if he tried to drastically curtail the speaking activitiese of the house of Commons.

In some quarters there are misâ€" givings about his Roman Catholic reliâ€" Most Conservatives recognize that an alliance, or at least an underâ€" standing, with Premier Maurice Duplesâ€" sis of the Union Nationale government in Quebec, is nécessary if the Conserâ€" vatives are to have any hope of success in the next election, but it is not a situation that they relish with much fervor. Many Conservatives consider the‘return of Hon. H. H. Stevens, Reâ€" construction leader, to the party is absoâ€" lutely essential, while in other quarters old sores over his disaffection in the 1935 election are still unhealed. The dianâ€"American trade agreement will not be ready for this session, and that conâ€" sequently, the budget, soon to be brought down, will not be as colourful as expected, though it is likely to be lairly in balance out side of the railway deficit. There will likely be from the Department of Finance a continuation of the policy of slight inflation, and there is the likelihood that the governâ€" ment will issue up to $50,000,000 of new currency to assist, in.a more drastic effect, in alleviating unemployment without: further going into debt..
