VEALE, Publisher PHONES:—Tribune Office, 11 - Sesidenee, 44tA.THURSDAY, DDCEMBBR 5th, 1036Mayor Wilson’* Fine Record Mayor Joseph M. Wilson, has well earned the rest and freedom frdm personal respon­sibility for the town’s government, that will be his after his retirement from public office at the end of this year, when his suc­cessor, Mayor-elect John L. Paterson, takes oyer the chief magistrate's office on Monday, January the 6th, 1936.Mayor Wilson first entered public life in Ingersoll in 1929, when he was elected to the council by acclamation. After serving as chairman of the Board of Works, Fire, Water and Light and Finance Committees of the town council, he aspired to the office of Mayor for 1933, when he was defeated in a three-cornered contest by H. D. McCarty. In a four-cornered fight for the Mayor's chair in 1934, he won out over three opponents, James E. Fergusson, George Sutherland and H. D. McCarty and defeated J. E. Fergusson for the mayoralty this year by over four hundred votes.From the standpoint of administration, the past two years have been most difficult ones for every municipality, and in some cases, municipalities have unfortunately had to call upon the Provincial Government to send in a Commissioner to run their financial affairs, Ingersoll pursued the even tenor of her way, and by strict economy and considered judg­ment has maintained her place without sac­rificing any service essential to the comfort and welfare of the people.We hope our citizens fully appreciate the sacrifices made by busy men in taking public offices to help safe-guard the town’s inter­ests. Instead of commendation, in too many cases, all they get is unfair criticism.Mayor Wilson, with those of his col­leagues, who step out of public office at the end of the year will leave with the satisfac­tion of knowing that they have left the town's finances in a healthy state for those who will succeed them in office. The Christmas Trade With the Yuletide season less than three weeks off and and only two issues of The Tribune available in which to present their case to the buying public, local busi­ness men if they are wise will lose no time in making ready for the Christmas trade. Not for a number of years have the people of this district faced so favorable financial con­ditions, and they will evidently this year have more money to spend in the expression of the Christmas spirit than for some time back. That this money should be expended at home seems to be the reasonable thing, and if it is not it will be the fault largely of those whose business it is to cater to the public needs at this and other seasons.We are referring to this matter in order to remind our business friends that time is speeding onward, and that they may not al­low trade that rightfully belongs to them to be diverted to mail order houses or to dis­tant shopping centers. An exhibition of a greater desire to co-operate among the dif­ferent classes, and the application of the golden rule in our various relationships at all times, will contribute very largely to the general betterment.However the public may reasonably be expected to shop where they are invited to shop and where they feel confident their in­terests will be adequately safeguarded and their wants provided for. Your Radio License Last week we carried a notice notifying radio owners about the necessity of paying their annual license fee of two dollars. This, doubtless, is the preliminary forecast­ing the visit of an inspector to the district and the threat of prosecution to those who have failed to purchase their 1935 privilege of using their radio. No nuisance tax is popular but the radio fees is especially dis­liked. The reason for this is perhaps two­fold. In the first place the average radio fan fails to see the benefit he receives, and then too, there is a widespread feeling that there are many, many radio users who never do pay and never have paid the levy. It is felt that until there is some method of mak­ing all users obtain a license those who try to comply with the law should not be taxed.That the government is aware of the un­equitable and unpopular nature of the tax is shown by a dispatch from Ottawa intim­ating that the two dollar fee will be aban­doned and a tax on tubes substituted. The tube tax would appear to be a more equitable system of radio taxation, and would appear to lend itself to a more economical method of collection. Minister of Health Stresses Vita! Need of Pasteurization The day may not be far away when every man, woman and child in Ontario will be consuming pasteurized milk purely as a mat­ter of health preservation, Hon. J. A. Faulk­ner, minister of health, told the Ontario Milk Distributors Association, at its annual convention hejd last week, in the Royal York Hotel, Toronto.Statistics reaching the department of health, he continued, show -that at the pres­ent time only 85 per cent of the population of the province are consuming completely pas­teurized milk.Dr. Faulkner stressed the danger of in­creasing the tubercular toll that exists from the consumption of raw milk. Citing def­ Inite example* that have come to his atten­tion as minister of health, he told of a farmer whose child contracted tuberculosis as a raault of drinking raw milk. The fanner, he continued, refused to believe that his own cows were responsible for the spreading of the disease until they had been slaughter­ed and an abattoir had refused to even con­sider them for meat“We have had many epidemics in On­tario that were milk born,” Dr. Faulkner stated. “We have followed these epidemics up by thorough investigation that haa track­ed the source of the disease right down to the herd if not to the actual cow. The re­sult is that today these municipalities are us­ing nothing but pasteurized milk. If we have to win an argument by causing the death of even the humblest child in this pro­vince, then I contend that it is too extrava­gant an experiment when we all know better.”The minister asked the farmers and milk distributors of the province to co-operate to the fullest extent with the department of health in working and carrying out a sane policy for the future. By increased adver­tising of a 100 per cent, perfect product, he believed, the milk distributors of Ontario could develop in this country an industry that would be second to none. Northwestern Ontario Make* Mining Record No similar sized area in the world has had the rapidity of mining development exper­ienced by Northwestern Ontario, declared Fred V. Seibert, Superintendent of Natural Resources for the Canadian National Rail­ways, at Winnipeg, speaking at the closing banquet of the Northwestern Associated Chambers of Commerce recently.Two years ago there were two producing mines in the area—the Howey and the.Moss- Today there are 16 producers in 12 distinct mining fields from Long Lac to the Manitoba boundary. They are handling a total of 27,000 tons of ore per day, and this year they will produce more than $6,000,000 in gold, a production double that of last year.“Any one of these 12 fields is a potenti^ Porcupine or Kirkland Lake. Neither Porcu­pine nor Kirkland had a better start than any one of them,” Mr. Seibert said. “We have just made a start in Northwestern Ontario—no one can guess what is ahead of the district,” he added.Expenditures by the mining industry in Northwestern Ontario jumped from $2,300,- 000 in 1933 to $5,000,000 in 1934- During the last nine years expenditures have totall­ed $19,112,000. Approximately 40 per cent of this total has been spent in wages and services, 20 per cent on mining and mill­ing machinery and equipment, 12 per cent on food, 10 per cent on explosives and fuel, 10 per cent on miners’ stores and hardware, and 8 per cent on building materials. Min­ing development was bringing this area, the “last gap” in the Dominion, into its own, and welding the Canadian confederation more closely together, he concluded. Dairy Phone32 Apple Growing In Canada Canada’s principal fruit is the apple, par­ticularly important not only on the score of quantity, but for the fine quality produced. The apple orchards of Canada are located mainly in the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia, the Saint John Valley in New Bruns­wick, large districts in Southern Quebec and Ontario, and the warm interior valleys of British Columbia.Apple growing in Canada dates back to the early pioneer days. History records the establishment of apple and pear orchards in the first settlements of Nova Scotia over 300 years ago by the French settlers, and the Annapolis Valley has for generations been one of the most widely-known apple-produc­ing sections in North America. In the province of Quebec there are records of apples growing 300 years ago. In Ontario the first apple trees were planted about 1760, and in British Columbia about 1850. Extraction Gasoline From Coal A Success Extraction of gasoline from coal has made such rapid strides in Britain that four out of every 100 gallons consumed in the country are produced from coal. Recently a cargo of 300,000 gallons of high-grade gasoline ex­tracted from coal was shipped from England. The new industry is located at Billingham- on-Tees and the plant has a,capacity of 45,- 000,000 gallons of gasoline a year, according to the Industrial Department of the Canadian National Railways. A keen interest is being shown in Canada in the results achiev­ed in view of the large deposits of coal in Eastern as well as Western Canada. Today the tendency is to stress the import­ance of looking after those who are not em­ployed, while very little is heard concerning those who are doing something and keeping the world going. If it were not for the lat­ter, however, the former as well as the coun­try generally would be out of luck. There are thousands of Canadians who are sticking closely to their jobs, some of which are not so good, and by so doing are able to earn a living. They have a right to be taken into account With the mounting tide of tax­ation they are finding it harder and harder to make ends meet. It is the doers who are carrying the load, which is not getting lighter as the days go by.f The gross revenues of the all inclusive Canadian National Railways System tor the week ending November 21, 1035, were $3,- 479,413.00, as compared with $3,155,362.00, for the corresponding period of 1984, an in­crease of $324,051.00- INGERSOLL BUSINESS DIRECTORYTho Ingersoll Bu*ine»* Finn* whose advertisement* appear below, are aponwring a special drive to booat business in Ingersoll.

Adder of London, who to a resident engineer of the Department of Highways. During the course of his remarks, Mr. Alder explained the various types of reads which are being con­ structed, adding to the comfort, a* well as the safety of the travelling motorists. D. McKenzie, who is the chairman of the Agriculture and Public Affaire Committee of the Club, was in charge of tha meeting and the speaker was introduced by J. J. McLeod. In opening hi* addreas, Mr. Alder traced the history of rood building back to the day* of the Roman Em­ pire, when these people built a great number of roads and it was solely upon this form of advancement that they depended. At that particular time they built roods in Rome, Northern Italy, France and parts of England and to-day, these countries serve as a foundation of the splen­ did roads in Europe. The speaker referred to the 16th century, Baying that at this time, Mne improvement could be seen in the roods of the country, especially was this BO with England. Then, some 50 or 60 years later, further advancement was noticeable along this line. It has only been in the past 25 or 30 years, with the coming of the automobiles have seen any marked fan provenrent in the con­ struction of our roads. Mr. Alder then went on to define the various types of roads which are being used to-day. Gravel road was held to be very difficult to keep level and smooth. Last year a new type of road was introduced, this being called stabilized rood. Thia was developed with the main thought to keep the cost of the construction low and at the same time keep the cost of maintenance at a low level. The speaker said that this particular type of road was of no use as a pro­ vincial highway, bnt it served with splendid results as a county road, which it was used for. Anothar type of road, is the bituminous which is constructed for the purpose of safety. Thia has a stronger sur­ face and will stand up better under the heavy traffic of trucks and can of the present day on the provincial highways. The speaker next referred to an­ other type of rood which is used to advantage in various countries but as yet it has not been introduced in Ontario, It has produced excellent results. The department of high­ ways has been working along pretty well the same line of construction as thia, adjusting the curves so that a motorist could roach a speed of 60 males per hour without any difficul- ty. Super- elevation WM also dhown to be an important step towante im­provement cd the highways.Mr. Alder continued by saying that it i* the intention of the depart­ ment to moke more wimon on the highways, especially going over the top of a bill where drivers try to pus and thu* cause accident*. He held that the new idea of four stripe of traffic would have to be introdu­ ced in the near future. With refer­ ence to the reflector* and other signs along the highways, they were a«id to be of great importance but re­ cently they have been taken off their port* and this hax added considerable expense to the cart of the upkeep of the highways. Mention was also rretde of what la termed as "Express Roods.’’ It was stated that type of road may not be needed m Ontario. The featune of this particular type of road is that there i* a wide atrip of land down the centre of the road and is suitable for planting of tree* and flowers which adds to the beauty of the scenery. Speaking of the highway* in Eur­ ope, Mr. Alder said that they are now building them so that they do not enter any of the town or citiea because of the fact that a great number of these places have old buildings which they do not want to do away with, and this to the reason that they build their highways away from the busineas centres. This new type of road was shown to be very favorable and in Germany they now have 3800 miles of thia road and they plan to build 7,000 miles more of it In the near future. There are a number of phases which enter into the highway ques­ tion said the speaker. One of the«, which seems to be the most import­ ant to the accidents. The speaker held that the government has tried to build highways as best they could, but unless the recklesa people driving cars are refused the right to drive, the task is almost impossible. We must use courteay on the road M well as in our own homes, said the speaker and until wo do this, there will be more accidents. One of the more important rteps in connection with the highways of the province was shown to be the beautifying of the scenery. It was stated that the trees along the roods ana being carefully examined to see if they are decayed. Trees are being planted where possible so that the driver and the occupants of his car might enjoy their ride. The thanks and appreciation of the members of the club was extend­ ed to Mr. Alder by J. W. Dean. Appointed Coroner iDr. W. N. Meldrum received word from the Attorney-General's De­ partment, Toronto, on Wednesday, that he had been appointed a coroner for the county of Oxford.—Norwich Gazette.

T ^D iv o R ce CoZMURDER --------- o/^M ILT O N PRQPPER— Fourteenth Instalment “Weil, there was the fact that Ellen and Garrett had only a small fraction of the stolen goods." **id the nurse who had attended the for­mer Mr*. Keith. “After she was here six month*. Ellen realized I »ympathized with her, and once per­ mitted herielf to confide in me. When I asked how she got into this trouble, she didn’t try to justify her­self. but only Garrett. He wasn’t naturally bad. she claimed, and she did her best to stop him from going wrong. But he admired bis friend's smartness and his influence, and the temptation of easy money ■was too much for him. I could tell she clearly feared and despised the fellow.”Rankin spoke eagerly. "Did she tell you anything about who he was and what became of him?""She could hardly know what happened to him after her arrest.” Tbe matron shook her head. “But »he mentioned the name by which she knew him; more than likely it was an alias. If I’m not mistaken, be traveled as Fred Dennis.”But the matron had no idea of her charge's history, once she passed beyond the wails of the penitentiary. She had never heard from her. Nor could the supply any further details about Fred Dennis, or hi* descrip­tion. which Rankin particularly de­sired. And the was ignorant of how Ellen Trent met her lover or where. In court, she had been repre­ sented by a Mr. Nathan Lewis, a Fort Wayne lawyer, in ail probabil­ity appointed by the judge to defend her, because she had no money.Late that afternoon, Tcnuiiy Ran­kin presented himtelf, by appoint­ment made over the telephone, at the law office of Mr. Nathan Lewis. Evidently tbe lawyer had prospered since the day, six year* before, -when he was appointed by the court, an impecunious young lawyer, to defend Ellen Trent-Mr. Lewis studied Rankin's card and motioned him to a deep arm­chair."Yes, Mr. Rankin?” he inquired politely, but with quiet reserve. "You’re from the Philadelphia Po­lice Bureau, I see. How can I be of service to you?”“I called you to make sure you wouldn’t leave the office before 1 arrived," the detective replied. “It's about a young woman whose mys­terious murder I am investigating in the East Her name is Barbara Keith and she wa* once your client, charged with concealing and disposing ot stolen goods. You knew her as Ellen Trent?’The lawyer looked genuinely shocked, and shook hi* head sol­emnly. "I'm sorry to hear that," he mur mured. “Of course, I recall the case quite welt Exactly what happened to her?"Briefly Rankin related enough of the tragedy to enlist Mr. Lewis' co­operation. The latter listened atten- him eventually when he returned at dawn, after a narrow escape during an attempted robbery He had been separated from Dennis and brought back some of the loot; then she re­alized hi* occupation and taxed him with it.” "And what’i your opinion of Gar­rett ? Did you gather he was vicious The lawyer spread his bands. "Mis* Trent insisted it was entirely Dennis* fault; without bis persua­sion and the enticement of easy money, Garrett would never have gone wrong. She lowed him so. it was almost pitiful how she deluded herself about his worthiness.’' "Hive you any idea, Mr. Lewis," he asked, "how and where she met Garrett in the first place?" After some cogitation, the attor­ ney recalled that the girl had men­tioned that they became acquainted in Akron, Ohio, late in 1925. She worked as a wrapper in a large de­ partment store there and met the young man at a dance hall. Mr. Lewis was not better informed than Mortimer Keith had been. She bad no relative* left, he believed.The lawyer told bow her sweet­heart became acquainted with Fred Dennis. It was at the Indianapolu race track, where Garrett began to hang about when he failed to obtain work, in hope of acquiring some loose change. But the girl could not name, Mr. Lewis explained ai Rankin probed more thoroughly, any of Dennis’ other associates.“No wonder she detested Dennis so!” Rankin exclaimed. “He threat­ened her happiness, endangered the man she loved and brought her end­less worry and anxiety for his wel- ‘'Exactly,” Mr. Lewis agreed. ‘That** the reason, when Garrett was killed, she considered him hi* murderer. I have a vivid picture of her in prison, crushed and numbed by his death; she didn’t care what happened to her without him. But she had one interest—a grim deter­mination that Fred Dennis should suffer for it."The detective nodded. "I suppose he realized her opposition and en­ mity.”“He could hardly help it, the way .the always tried to persuade Garrett to break away. It was a continual truggic for ascendency over him; ^he told me that when she’d almost win him away, Dennis could bring aim back to heel with a word.”“But the police didn’t catch him, even with her information?" Rankin vouchsafed. Mr. Lewi* toyed with a pen on hi* desk and pushed back his chair i* he replied."No, he escaped again,” he related, "by the skin of his teeth, just before they broke in.”“And nothing was h-ard of him afterward? No trace oi hi* where­abouts?” The lawyer shook hi* head. “No, he dropped completely out of the picture.”“But at least you have Mis* Trent'* description of him," the de­tective put in. "The police could give you that,” Mr. Lewi* replied, “ft was their job to hunt him. And I believe they slij hold such of Dennis' posses­sion* M didn't have other rightful owners," "In that ca*e, I'll want to see them at once." Abruptly, Ranldn rose and extended hi* hand.But instead of shaking hand*. Mr. Lewis glanced at his watch and also rose."If you don't mind, Mr. Rankin,” he said, “I'd tike to go along with you to Headquarter?. Recalling how favorably the girl impressed me. I'm interested in the case and wish to "I have reason to believe,” Rankin concluded, "that this affair in Fori Wayne—her arrest and imprison­ment—lias a bearing on her death. She was being blackmailed by some one familiar with her past And you can probably tell me more about it, from her angle, than anyone else,’’ Mr. Lewis pondered. “Under these circumstances, I suppose 1 am justified in revealing whatever I can to help you. To me, it has always seemed a most distressing situation, for which the girl was not to blame at all, Her misfortune was to love a ne'er-do-well. Yet, there were the goods, the evidence that she knew of the robberies, and her obvious re­lations with one of the men. I con­sidered it most wise that she plead guilty and trusted to the court's leniency for a minimum sentence.’*"That’s one of the details 1 want.’ the detective cut in quickly. "It's been suggested to me, from other sources, that she was really quite innocent"“I’m firmly convinced of that,” Mr. Lewis declared. “At our first interview in the city jail, she as­sured me she was iguorint of Gar­rett's dishonesty until after they had lived here for six months. At times she wondered why he stayed out so late at night. She found out about Damage By Dlotbs Can Be Heavy M Winter HYMENEAL Under the impresilon that moth* commit their depredations in the spring and dimmer months only, enany people display little care in putting away their summer clothes ■for the winter. As matter of fact, moths may be found in heated mod­ ern building* all the year round.

Moths themselves do no harm, ewept that learn what develops. la fact if Dennis u responsible for her mur­ der, I feel slmost involved in it my­ self." “Why, certainly, Mr. Lewis,” the d etective returned pleasantly, “You’re quite welcome to join me and follow it up." The lawyer had put into words the possibility to which his investi­gations and all the information he obtained on this journey pointed. Certainly, Fred Dennis had ample reason for harboring malice against Ellen Trent and desiring her death. From the beginning, her opposition to his control over her sweetheart Garrett, constantly threatened to disrupt his plans and endanger hi* criminal enterprises. Then, with Dave Garrett's death, her more ac “Ellen Trent first met Dave Garrett in Akron—at a dance hall." tire hostility resulted calamitously for him. She made him a fugitive from justice. It was hardly likely that a man of hl* character, vicious and revengeful, yet astute and dar­ ing, would hesitate to commit mur­der in retaliation. He wa* familiar with Barbara Keith’s past and in a position to disclose it; and as part of his re­venge, he could blackmail her by anonymously calling her husband's attention to them, he would estab­lish her relations with Garrett and her prison sentence a* a thief. He might even have been aware of the expected baby. To silence him, Mrs. Keith would undoubtedly have been willing to pay dearly. Why, then, had he chosen to chloroform her during the divorce hearing? And how had he reached her there? To these obstacles to bi* theory of Dennis' guilt, Rankin had to produce a solution. So long as Mr*. Keith continued to pay him, he would hesitate to kill the goose that laid such golden eggs; and she had fiven him a check a* recently aa une first. But there was a limit to the bleeding process. If driven to the wall by his demands, she might have turned on him finally, threat­ening both to betray him to the authorities and to admit the truth to her husband. The fact that the day before she died she had broached a subject, the delicateness and im­ portance of which her nervousness and alarm attested, supported tbi* supposition. Instead of wishing to speak of a divorce, as Mr. Keith sup­posed, she may have intended to confess. Though she lost her nerve in the crisis, yet desperate and hounded, she constituted a fresh menace to Dennis. And always, so long as she lived, her knowledge of hi* criminal ca­reer, which she could pass on to the authorities, endangered his free­dom, Mr. Lewis drove the detective di­rect to Headquarters. It wss his presence rather than Rankin's offi­cial card that gained them a prompt audience with Lieutenant Becker. He was the officer who had ar­rested Ellen Trent six year* before, and led the subsequent raid on Den­nis’ flat. Even now he was sensi­tive about that fiasco and mention of it brought a wry frown to hi* features. Rankin briefly related the story of Barbara Keith’s murder and the trail that led to Fort Wayne. When he explained its connection with Fred Dennis and hi* desire to obtain information about him. Lieu­tenant Becker nodded. “Of course, we still have al! the things from his apartment.” he de­clared, "that is, his personal thing*. I'll have them here in a jiffy." He summoned a policeman from the record room. Within ten min­utes the officer returned with pa­pers, reports and several suitcase*.

IMPERIAL BANK 6ht ANNUAL STATEMENTLiquid A -h 58 4% of Public Li.- bill U.*—©vpo.it. Up Over »«,. 000,000—Profit, Satisfactory.At tbe Annual Meeting of the Imperial Bank held in Toronto on Wednaaday, November 27th, the Mat Annual Statement of the Bank was presented. In view of the many daring the past twelve months tbe statement was a particularly encour­ aging one. Tbe President, Mr. F. A. Boiph, and tbe General Manager, Mr. A. E. ingly reviewed many phases in Can­ trend of business, strsssing Boms of tbe adverse factors which must be dealt with. Both the addressee, howevw, carried a note of qualified optimism, Mr. Roiph concluding bi* remarks in these words: “I would atty conditions today justify me in say­ ing that our watchwords should be "Confidence and Gourage.” Mr. Phipps exhaustively reviewed tho Bank Statement for the 12 months ending October 31M last, and stated the profits of the year amounted to $1,208,079, a figure slightly lees than the profits in the 1934 statement. These profits, the General Manager declared, had been applied to take care of tbe usual ex­ penses of Dividends, Guarantee Fund and Pension Fund. Ln speaking oi the Balance Sheet he stated that it was the first Balance Sheet pub­ lished by any of the Chartered Banks since the Bank of Canada came into operation and for this reason was of marked interest. Total De postal St was pointed out, now stand at $114,674,600, showing an increase during the year of $8,- 000,000. Deposits bearing interest generally spoken of as Savings Bank Deposits, are three millions greater than a year ago. As in previous statements the Bank's liquid position is shown to be particularly strong. Liquid assets are 68.4% Of Liabilities to the Pub­ lic. Cash Assets are $21,774,227, while the total assets are over six millions in advance of 1934. While Current Loans only show a compar­ atively slight increase, the mwe- ment is in the right direction. The General Manager discussed tha opening of the Bank of Canada for business on the 11th of March last and its effect upon Chartered Banks. He said: "On a previous occasion I remarked that Canadian banks have always been able to ad­ just themselves to circumstances end it ie now being demonstrated that such is the case.” Reference also was made to the Empire Trade Agreements and the recent Recipro­ cal Treaty negotiated with the Gov­ ernment of the United States. Mr. Phipps expressed the view that these constituted a gleam of light and in­ dicated the desire of English-speak­ ing races to break down ibarriera and resume trade on a more open basis. The president, Mr. F. A. Rolph, spoke of the past 12 months as an eventful y«r and of his satisfaction in presenting the Annual Report which shows continuous and substan­ tial progress notwithstanding many adverse factors. He referred at rome length to criticisms which had been levelled at the Banks in recent years, referring especially to tbe charge that credit had been withheld. He said: “We can only loan money when in the judgment of banks It is going to be repaid. Anyone who can use bank credit to advantage will find ample money to do so provided jus^flea- tkm for tbe loan can be seen.” ;Mr. Rolph then spoke o* ihe fig- | urea of Canada’s trade which he said recently had been very encour­ aging and interestingly summarized the trend of business in different portions of Canada. In concluding his remarks, Mr. Ralph directed a word of caution to Federal, Provincial and Municipal Governments on over-spending and the alarming degree of debt accum­ ulation. He said: "We should by evary means in our power endeavour to encourage a firmer stand on the part of our public leaders to control expenditures to that we may get our budget balanced and taxes reduced.

Municipal, are overspending to an alarming degree, and our debts era accumulating. We should, by every means in oar power, endeavor to en­courage a firmer stand cm the part of our public leaders to control expendi­tures, so that we may get our Budgets balanced and Taxes reduced. MR. A. E. PHIPPS, General Manager, •aid in part: DEPOSITS UP 8 MILLIONS. FEDERAL ELECTION. Last month we had a Federal elec­tion. Whatever our political opinions may be, we should have a feeling of satafsetion and relief that a Party standing for sound principles and pro­gressive ideas has been returned to power with a mandate to carry on the buainesa of the country; and the large majority it has should inspire courage and confidence to carry out the great trust which has been given it.During the past few years, we have heard {ram platforms, and there has appeared in the prem. criticism of Banka and Bankers, which has been moat unfair. The principal criticisin to which we have been subjected has been that of withholding credit. It seems extra­ordinary to me that we should be criticized for this. The granting of credit is the principal business of a Bank, and the most profitable. Bank credit has been withheld in some cases, simply because it has been felt that credit has not been justified- w « accepted millions of money from de- poritors and it is our duty to take care of it. We loan this money to thoae entitled to the credit, and in the transaction we make a small percent­age cl profit for doing so. We can only loan money where, in the judg­ment of the Banks, it is going to be repaid. Why should we withhold credit if it is going to be to our advantage to grant it? And, why should we grant it if we feel that the money entrusted to us is not going to be returned?The Banks, however, have plenty of funds available to make industrial loans and we would point out to those making critidera that any one who can use Bank credit to advantage will find ample money to do so, provided justifi­cation for the loan can be seen. TRADE FIGURES ARE UP. The total trade el Canada for the year ending September 30th, 193$, amounted to 81,235,789.000, which was au increase over the 1932-33 period of 37.9% and on increase over the 1933-34 period of 8.8%.Canada's Imports for the twelve months ending September 30th, 1935, amounted to $539,256,000.Canada's Trade Balance for the year ending September 30th, 1935, was favorable to the extent of $157,276,000. which is an increase of $16,571,000 over the same period last year. PROVINCIAL CONDITIONS. In BRITISH COLUMBIA the major industries. Lumbering, Mining, Fishing and Agriculture, all continue on the up­ward trend. Government Revenues arc higher, also the Vancouver City Tax Collect ions are ahead of last year. There is an increase In the Saufinn Pack of 12%. In ALBERTA there is evidence of improved conditions in Agriculture, Live Stock and Manufacturing, an5 business in the oties is considerably better than it was a year ago. The Wheat Crop in the Edmonton district has been disappointing, but otherwise business is holding its own. In SASKATCHEWAN conditions with the farmers are undoubtedly bet­ter, although in the Weyburn district, where we have a number of Branches, there is disappointment. After the pro­mising outlook in the Spring which juBti&ed the farmers in expecting □ profitable crop, the development of rust resulted in extensive damage. In MANITOBA there has been a Blight improvement in business condi­tions ana the purchasing power d the farmer is increasing. The crop is small in volume, and poor in quality, bat prices are better, and the opinion is expressed that the West has seen the worst of the depresoion and Confidence is now bring restored. In ONTARIO—The manufacturing districts in central Ontario all report increased activity and unproved em- pJoymeut condition!. In Northern Ontario increased mining activity is in evidence and conditions generally throughout Northern Ontario are con- sitJernLly improved and unemployment reduced. PUBLIC FINANCES. While wo feel greatly encouraged by the general improvement in business conditions, WB cannot ignore the con­ dition of our public finance*. Our Governments, Federal, Provincial and The deposits not bearing interest, including Dominica and Provincial Government deposit*, are $26,000,902, compared with $21,100,482 a year ago, notwithstanding a decrease of $2,636,- 000 in the amount of depoats by the Dominion Government due to the operation of the Bank of Canada.The total deposits are $114,674,601.- 45. compared with $106,761,943.11 a year ago.The total liabilities to the public are $125,070,685, compared with $120,065,- 358, an increase of $5,005,326. THE ASSETS. Notes of Bank of Canada, $4,264,- 915, and Deposits with Bank d Can­ada, $7,066,631, the two totalling $11,- 331,546, replace Dominion Notes, which last year Mood at $9,283,913. an increase of over 82,000,000 in this form of cash. Adding our other cash assets we get a total of cash and cash deposited $21,774,227. The Bank's holdings ot Demin ion and Provincial securities amount to $ 29,397,871, compared wit b $23.73 8,009 last year. The increase is quite sub­stantial, and is in keeping with the trend of investments of Canadian Banks generally.The current loons, at $60,640,424, are $1,500,000 in excess of last year’s figure. The current Joans of the Bank have kept up very well, indicat­ing that the Bank enjoys a good measure of the commercial busmen of the country.The staff of the Bank totals 1329, compared with, 1351 a year ago. I would like to associate mynell with what the President has said about the staff. They ore a fine lot of men and women, and the results are the best evidence that they have worked hard and faithfully through all these difficult times. OUR FORTUNATE POSITION. It is a matter d much regret that world politic* continue in rather a delicate balance. With upheavals in so many lands it is more and more impressed upon us how fortunate we are to be a part of the British Empire which has been able to not only survive and hold its place among tbe Nations, but to take a lead in efforts to maintain peace in other countries- One of the expression* of nationalism since the World War baa been in the form of extreme restriction! on international trade to a -point where it is often re- duced to nominal proportions through prohibitive tariffs. The Empire Trade Agreements and more lately the red- psocal treaty with the Government of the United States constitute a gleam of light and indicate that among tbe English speaking races at least tbe commencement of a real effort to break down the barriers and resume trade on a more open baii*.TJ]e. latest crop report of tbe Do- iiflmm! Dnieau of Statistics estimates tbe yield of wheat at tlightly lower than 1934, which was considerably be­low the average for the past ten year*.There ba* been a pronounced gain in our shipments of livestock, especially livestock going to tbe United States market. These shipments and the exports of other product* of agriculture, together with those of certain com­modities coming under the new reci­procal treaty, should prove a substantial advantage to tbe agricultural interests and to tbe position of Canada's trade a* an exporting country.Lumber operations, which have been far from satisfactory, should also be Mimulsted, as should the export of certain lines of fish, principally fresh water fish, and tbe product of tbe Pacific Coast fisheries. Generally we may look forward to an increasing volume of Canadian export* of pri­mary products.The mining of preciou* metal* con­tinue* to expand, and tbe demand for electrical power appear* to have fully recovered from the depression, new records being set in recent month*. Building continue* much below the pre-depreasioa years, but ha* shown a substantial gain over 1934, indicating some returning degree of confidence in the future of property values. Au­ tomobile suits, both domestic and ex­port, have been the best for some years. Freight traffic on the railways show* only a nominal gain over last year, but the margin of net earning* nos improved.
