The Mc.Maiter Resolution Yesterday was one >-f tha n:.>st inter- days ire h*ve yet seen in the Houte. Mr. McMaster, a Liberal uitni- ber from Brume, Ust year brought in a bill in which a'.l cabinet member) were io re*uu their directorships of bi^ corpora- tions when they bccime members of the Cabii.et. His wlule pify l.st ye ir gave him the most enthusiastic tupp.rt, both by speeches nd by a he ivy vole. Vts teriay he :ir.r duced a res.<luti.>n corti* iag much the same ground but milder than ihe oue f las; year. His resolution said :ht ail Cabinet members who held directorships in bank*, trust companies, transportation companies and other Urge utility corporations should resigu. Ue I u' up a wonderful argument, i.e.- from r bitterness, showing that tifteeo let-lint men m Canada were very closely b uad up with the sixteen largest tinin* ci*', industrial and tiauspoitati -a c -i> corr.s in the country and that these dirtctota'M locked and iatwloekd acd members . i these directoures were also nit inters of the Cibioet of CtnaJ*.
