Emerging from a cabinet meet- ing at which, it is believed, the financial situation was under dis- cussion, the Prime Minister em- phatically reiterated the state- ment which he made a fortnight ago when England abandoned the gold standard. © At that time be asserted that Canada would keep to the traditional basis, "Canada," he declared, "has not altered the position taken when the announcement was made that England had departed from the gold standard, mor do we -contemplate doing so. BASIS OF PAYMENT FOR RELIEF WORK - SETBY COUNCIL (Continued from pege 1) behalf of this Council, I have pro- mised the single men that some- thing will be done to help them. This motion should be acted upon immediately. "I have made enquiries and find that the shelter is available when ever we want to use it," said the Mayor. Must Commence More Work The matter was again referred to when the Chairman of the Board of Works, Ald. S. Jackson, was asked for information by Ald. Mac- Donald as to.the number of men at present employed by the Board of Works, where the men are em- ployed, and how many hours they work per day. J In replying to this question Ald. S. Jackson stated that 27 men were employed on the retaining wall, 25 on grading on Ritson Road, and 10 at the Subway with the likelihood of the latter number being increased to 40 when the street could be closed. "We will have to open up more work," said the Chairman of the Board. "We might do more work on grading, employ fifty or a hund- red men, but until we obtain the levels for the proposed disposal plant from the engineers we cannot start the work on the sewers. At present we are tied up. Mayor Marks--"The levels should be here from the Toronto engineers to-morrow." Ald. Boddy--"when we get these levels will this Council definitely de- cide to go ahead with the disposal project ?" Mayor Marks--"We will have to ll] ber of the Board of Works. confer with the Public Utilities Commission." Ald. Boddy--*I1 noticed by the paper that the court case went against us in connection with Wood Street. Will the Board of Works take any steps to clear this con- dition up?" 'Ald. Hyman -- "The Board of Works should have a report here as to what they recommend is to be done. It should come to this Council and submit a program for approval.. Instead of that the chair- man now says that he is doing cer- | tain things." Ald. S. Jackson--""Two weeks ago we asked Council if it was agree- able to' work on the retaining wall. They said 'go right to it' In com- mittee we asked about this grading work the answer being 'sure, go ahead.' If we have got to come to this Council with a formal re- port, asking for approval on every ten cent job, the work will be de- layed in the mean time. "Now I am going to move that 25 more men be put on grading work. We can do some more i on Ross Road. The bridge is in poor shape and we will get in touch with East Whitby Township and fix it up. Then there is another three feet we can take off Bloor Street to find work for fifty men. "We have got to find grading to do if the men are to be put to work. Everything else is tied up," said the chairman of the Board of Works. Ald. Boddy--"This should all come as a recommendation from the Board of Works and include infqr- mation as to the number of men being employed and the approxi- mate cost." Defends the Committee Ald..E. Jackson--"The Chairman of the Board of Works asked for this when his committee met but the members of council. dwindler away and left only two. And then, jo-might, they start to criticise im. Ald. MacDonald--""What hours do the men work?" Ald. S. Jackson--"Eightihours." . Ald. MacDonald--"1 hear of men working nine and ten hours. I will move that all work carried out by the city under the Board of Works be on an eight-hour day basis," the motion being carried. Ald. S. Jackson--"We have got $20,000 for grading. At the rate of 50 men on $10 a week that will last till next August so we better catch up. But if little bits of grading have all got to come before this Council as a recommendation then the work will be all held up." Id." Hyman--"We should have had this program months ago. It is ridiculous to grade one side of Ross Road, and leave the other. The Board of Works should have been in touch with East Whitby weeks ago. The Board of Works, 1 think, should certainly be brought to task for the way they handle this matter." "Not Much Interest" Ald. S. Board--"We had a Board of Works meeting on Friday. There were about eleven members of this Coun- cil in the room. It is all right here and 'now to talk about the unem- ployed but there was not much in- terest shown at-that meeting. You all slipped away. Why did not you stay and help to Jan something that could be done?" Ald. Hyman--"I am not a Tem am not called upon to attend its meet- ings. I attend the meetings of my own ttees.". Se . Ald. MacDonald-"Perhaps Ald. | Jackson refers to me too.

Jackson--"The advertis- ing period for, the work on the sidewalks has not yet expired. I tell you our hands are tied just at present except for grading." Mayor Marks--""We cannot do the impossible." Ald. S. Jackson, seconded by Ald. Waterous, eventually sponsored a resolution that 25 more men be laced at work grading on Bloor treet, this motion being adopted by Council. ROTARIANS HAD (NUSUAL TREAT (Continued from page 1) were some encoursging factors which indicated that an increase in wheat prices might be expect- ed. He pointed, further, to the the average price of wheat at Liverpool had been $1.34 a bushel, so that the present price was not normal, and might be expected to go up to the dollar mark in the near Tuture, Epeaking specifically of the trip made with the Canadian party to the Buenos Aires Exposition, Mr. McLaughlin said it had been valu- able from the standpoint of cre- ating good will, which was im- portant to trade. It used to be said that trade folowed the 1iag; but this was no longer true, as in these days of keen competition, trade followed the lines of least resistance. The motion picture films of the trip shown by Mr. McLaughlin proved delightful, taking his au- dience on the ocean voyage to Havana and Trinidad, then to Montevideo, the capital of Ura- guay, then to Buenos Aires, and finishing up with a reel showing Rio de Janeiro and the surround- Ing country. The pictures mot only showed the places of interest in the various points visited, but e'so gave an insight into the cus- toms and ways of living in the South American Republics, Some particularly fine pictures were shown of the opening of the Bri- fith Empire Trade Exposition by the Prince of Wales, who figured in several close-up sections of film, The Rotarians and their wives, and the visitors who were pres- ent, thoroughly enjoyed the whole «vening's entertainment, and at the close the thanks of the club were eloquently expressed by Magistrate T. K. Creighton. HAMPTON NEWS (Miss L. Horn, Correspondent) Hampton, Oct, 5. -- Congratu- | lations are extended Mrs. Thos. I'agcoe on celebrating her ninety- firet birthday on Saturday.
