hepburn has been a wholesome influence on the province he has uncovered wasteful ex travagance and rid the proviuce of a government which had outlived its greatest usefulness mr hepburn has not swung to the left very far as yet but he has been very busy clean ing up and undoubtedly he will turn soon to his real task of help ing the unemployed the farmers and all who find themselves in heavy seas

candidates in urging a more equal distribution of wealth during tho election campaign have no real opportunity to make their opinions felt eventually if mr hepburn hopes to have a second term in office his government will have to deal with tlie liquor problem in a more satisfactory way the public will give no more credit to the argu ment that the henry government would have made the province

new parliament looming up on the horizon the government will prepare for its first baptism under fire sighs point to this session being one of the most interesting in years cabinet refuses royal commission probe of aemilius jarvis case the ontario cabinet lias turned down attorneygeneral roebucks recommendation for a royal com mission inquiry into the aeniilius jarvis case with premier hepburn presiding when the local editor travelled to england back in 1926 with the canadian weekly press party one incident which will ever stand out fresh in our memory is the visit to the offices of the loudon daily express lord beaverbrooks news paper which has the largest circula tion of any paperin the world we went there alone the visit was not on tho newspaper editors agenda because before we left stouffville a promise had been made to mr harvey lawsou then living on church street that we would call on beverly baxter his nephew and superintendent of the great loudon newspaper when we found tho visiting rooms for mr baxters office there was at least a dozen persons waiting to see him but after sending our card with a boy in uniform it was less than three minutes before mr bnxtcr appeared in the room and made en quiries for us we were promptly ushered to his private office and ere we left it was our privilege to sit in on the daily conference of all tho editors of the express when mr baxter scrutinized their leading articles offered advice and some times severe criticism this confer ence which mr baxter insisted that we sit in on is held daily at 4 oclock promptly and never before had any insider listened in as we did hear ing the leading items of the next issue discussed and reported on to their editorinchief mr baxter beverly baxter is now writing a scries of articles for macleans magazine in toronto he is a toronto boy and rose from a piano salesman to command his present position at a fabulous salary around 00000 per year in his opening article in mac- leans he relates the incident some incident of england going off the gold standard and briefly here is how he tells it ramsey macdonald had sum- mond every london daily news paper editor to downing street on the eve of the big world announce ment yet unknown to the masses macdonald baldwin sir herbert samuel and snowden the pillars of the first emergency national govern ment sat at one side of the table behind them ticked the same clock that had kept the march of time while the cabinet had waited for the expiration of the ultimatum to germany in 1914 and now eighteen years later on another august even ing the clock was measuring the minutes before the storm if ever a room was pregnant with fate it surely is the cabinet room at no 10 i looked with understandable curiosity at the national quartette what of iramsay macdonald i had seen him at downing street three weeks before when as head of the labor government he had talked petulantly and foolishly he had given the impression of a man who had let himself get out of hand and was on the verge of a nervous break down now lie was calm and strong there was none of that compromise between words and their meaning which lias marred so many of his speeches his moment had come and he had risen to meet his destiny baldwin fingered his unlit pipe and licked his lips with that curious mannerism that belies the unexcite- nient of his voice snowden squatted like a little heathen god and samuels inexpressive oriental face seemed darker than usual in ordinary conversational tones the prime minister welcomed us and regretted that it was only tinves of crisis that brought the government and the newspapers in personai contact i have asked you to come here he said because the government of this country passes momentarily tomorrow into your hands accord ing to how you represent the news 1 the proper care of your automobile selecting the right- polish tn the first article it was told how many motorists make the mistake of believing that their cars must be refinished when the finish becomes dull and faded in restoring the color and glosra of the finish how ever it is important that the right polishing material be selected there is little adiantage for in stance in using an oily polish be cause it doesnt remove the traffic film but only forms an oil film over it the best results are obtained by th3 use of a polish which contains a mild solvent to soften the tratic film and a light abrasive to eea next two methods of patching away the chalked pigment and dirt when they start cleaning their cars many people become alarmed when they see color coming away on the cloth they assume that the polish is too severe and will wear away the finish on the car rut there is nothing to fear when the prooerly formulated polish is used the color on the cloth simply indicates that the tiny particles of pigment loosened by the weather ing are being removed with the traffic film this chalked pigment and accumulation of dirt ami

a delicate wayvof expressing confidence in tho attorneygeneral said mr roebuck afterwards iu commenting on cabinets policy mr jarvis has persistently com plained of unfairness in his trial calm confidence and even a feeling that better times lie ahead we have no power over you or at any rate we do not propose to exercise any power the patriotism of the press cannot be questioned and so it is

he was asked by tho press how can i answer that question yet came his reply several weeks ago when mr hep burn was in bermuda the attorney general announced his determina tion to press immediately before cabinet for a commission inquiry in to the case the matter was shelved however until the premiers return when he revived it lie encountered stiff opposition it is understood from several cabinet associates member more quietly impressive ramsay mncdonala he lad from scotland the journalist the pacifist the dreamer the poseur the senti mentalist the lover ot literature end the journeyman politician bad found himself as lincoln had dono when the challenge came from fort sumter and looking at him i felt once more that a man who springs from the people can draw upon a greater strength than any whose diiarterings go back to the crusad ers in a few words he told us how the run on sterling had become so drastic that on friday afternoon the into the sales but before noon on saturday the game was uri the bank had been forced to suspend gold payments by doing so said the premier the bank has incurred liability therefore tomorrow in the commons i shall introduce a bill of indemnity it will be rushed through its various stages will reach the lords by six oclock and will receive the royal assent immediately one of the editors spoke he ask ed if the prime minister anticipated any obstruction to the bill i will brook no obstruction said macdonald and for a second bis eyes flashed with the light of battle the scottish lad had travell ed a long way now gentlemen he went on i must ask you to reveal this news to no one until midnight it is essential that the facts should not reach the foreign capitals till then this must be kept a secret until twelve oclock so far the drama had been quiet and intense now it was to develop into burlesque one after another the various edtors put their peculiar difficulties forward i supply a tape service to the clubs do you not want the news to go out on our service i represent a group of provincial papers some of which go to press before midnight are those editors to go without the news wo send a cabled service to australia unless we can telegraph by 11 oclock it will be too late someone asked what time it was in australia there also seemed an element of doubt as to whether it was yesterday or tomorrow there our editors for scotland and ireland go to press early it will be a serious thing if we cannot carry the only news that matters my only contribution to the dis cussion was to suggest muzzling the bbc in case they had the news from any source a secretary left the room to telephone the instruc tions i macdonald smiled wearily it is all very complicated he said perhaps mr baldwin you might care to say something dear old stanley was true to form ho said that this was a time when everyone should play the game snowden and samuel had nothing to add to the discussion then gentlemen said the premier and suddenly the burlesque ended since i cannot legislate for each newspaper individually i must ask you to be patient with mo and keep this news to yourselves until midnight i know that you will approach your great tasks this night with true statesmanship outside no 10 the usual london miracle had happened it was empty when we arrived it was full of peoplo when we emerged that most pswchic- of all mobs the london crowd had sensed that something was up i went to the office and told my senior colleagues that i would give them a complete frontpage story and leading article at midnight but that i could not tell them tho sub ject i then arranged to go along to stornoway house and discuss policy with beaverbrook just as i was leaving my telephone rang it was our berlin correspondent who said office asking what we wanted from america on tho news thirty minutes before we had been sworn to secrecy now the world had the news who had talk ed no one it was simply that two or three junior reporters on rival papers had probably told each other of the activities of their particular old man the foreign correspon dents would thus hear of the down ing street conference some perfect ly honorable editor when asked what the news was had perhaps answered that he could reveal noth ing until midnight the foreign correspondents would argue that since the one great piece of news was englands struggle to remain on the gold standard this conference must be in connection with that matter and further since remain ing on the gold standard was not news the abandonment must be the midnight annoucement the report er who could not find the truth after that should take up garden ing notes next morning we announced to the public that britains liberation from the cross of gold had
