This healthier position to compete with its rival the Canadian Pacific which most decidedly will work for inc Public Good. Irony in . There is no Little irony in inc theory insists that this nation was originally formed and Given reports from British Columbia its Constitution by a compact or agreement Between original i that . Voters have been cd provinces or colonies and that no changes in this Constitution i acting social creditors on second should be made without the consent of the present provinces preferences and vice versa. For i effect the compact theory Means that Canada would be two paries have so Little in bound constitutionally in an unyielding Strait jacket. Each i common other than a general gleam no towards authoritarianism one of the provinces would possess the right to veto any change that r la dvrs of ten As and in practice no changes of any consequence would be attain Sonja credit was Able. Under this dispensation the British North America act indistinguishable from fascism would take rank with the Laws of the Meckles and the persians. While social creditors for their Here is an Issue of transcendent importance.

Stit ution on purely Federal Points there can be but one an i it is reasonably Clear that in ser to such questions. Canada is indeed a nation and a provincial Power veto such As is now proposed by the conservative party must be resisted by All who have the True interests of British Columbia the electors were out to punish the Liberal and conservative associates in the late coalition and this suffices this country at heart. The compact in its full imply he Odd of a cations of paralysis and stagnation has never been acceptable to Ingi but the historic relation to the great majority of the Canadian people to parliament or to any Canadian ministry. The record of or. Drew on this question is a Check ered ship Between the two protest groups since the depression pro Vides a most Complex study. They were born in discord since it was one.

The Strug Gle is on such a scale that it May profoundly affect the whole eco nomic future of the country. The by t. W. K.

The Ottawa correspondent of the Globe and mail reports the conservative Atti tude in these terms debate on tin amending Bill was solely on the constitutional aspect of the question and revealed a Sharp Cleav age of opinion Between the conservatives and All other to 1 Ideal parties.

Leadership in . Today British standards. The negotiations involve claims for wage increases since the budget by unions re presenting about 7 million work ers. These claims were made earlier in the year than is usual and most of them demand exceptionally big advances because or. Butler s budget increased food prices by reducing the subsidies. For most people the effects of higher prices were balanced by the tax reliefs and the bigger child allowances that the budget also provided. But the they were disappointed by the last government. A real restraint in wage claims was Practised from 194s to 1950, in the belief engineering workers bus drive that it would Stop prices from ers and shop assistants. If All rising.

That the present demand of the conservative party and the Duplessis government of Quebec for a provincial Power veto Over amendments to the Constitution is full of peril to the political and economic Well being of this country. The Liberal government has resisted this demand. Indeed or. St. Laurent has resisted it personally refusing to accept the infamous Goebbels in his. Value of wages in the face of a Rise in the cos of living quite irrespective of changes in the level of income lax which their poorer members do not have to pay.

For example the last pay increase to the railway men was dared from sep tember last year. Since then the Cost of living has already risen 5 per Ceni.

The claims seem justified from the Point of View of the individual Trade Union concerned Only with the particular interests its own members.
