WIIAT PARLIAMENT COSTS

Some information respecting the expenses of Parliament to the tax- payer of Canada is contained in the pages of the last issue Iof Hansard for the session when $40,000 was voted “to provide for the full ses- sional indemnity of members-days lost through absence caused by ill- ness, official public business or on ac- count of death through the present session—notwithstanding anything 1o the" contrary in the statutes, etc." As

$980,000, not including $10,000 paid m tho Opposition leader, this vote 1s somewhat less than five per cent, cl the amount required for House of Commons sessional indemnity.

The total figures given in the re- cord show that in the Senate, in addi- tion to the indemnity of $384,000 there is $6,000 for the Speaker and $5,000 for “transportation expenses." The House of Commons has almucii larger bill. In addition to the indem- nity ‘there is $10,000 for the Speaker and his Deputy, and "travelling al- lowances“ $14,000. The staff of the Senate costs $169,000, of the Com- mons $162,021; the Library, $79,425: and general expenses $60,000, making a total of $2,519,906, as the expenses of Canadian Parliament for one ses- slon,

ONE 0F CANADA'S OLDEST CHURCHES

Q. Which is one of Canada's Old- est ‘Churches? '

A. The little chapel at Tadoussc, Quebec, has for many years been a shrine of real historical value in the Sagucnay country. Tadoussc was the first church in New France, and while the present building was con- structed in 1747, a church of some form has stood on this site since 1017, when ‘Father ie Caron, one of the earliest missionaries to New France. built a bark cabin in which he held

Article 1. The same standards of honor and ethics shall prevail inter-

No official of a Power shall either directly or by indirection on behalf of his government be ex- pected, or permitted to act or com- municate other than consistently with the truth the honor and the obligation of the Power which he

be deemed dishonorable. (Ed. Note.“ ‘The Preamble wrote House to Wilson ‘and Articles 1, 2, and 3 arethe key- stone of the arch. It is absolutely essential for the people of the world to realize that they can never have international peace and order if they

The reason they are segregated is that it gives them em- phasis and makes the pledge binding.’ (In Wilson's draft the spirit of these articles is retained in the Preamble. but the wording is not used.) Article 4'. Any open or direct inquiry regarding the acts or purposes of a Power may be made by another Pow- er as of course, and shall be regarded scan-act cl friendship tending to promote frankness in international rc- lsilons, but any secret inquiry to such end shall be deemed dishonorable.

It is neces- sary, I think, to do away with the sbdomlnsblc custom of espionage, but to abolish it and leave some dis- honorable nation free to surreptit- iously prepare for war would be a mistake. It is to be remembered that nations are even more suspicious of one’ another than individuals, and such suspicion, as in the case of in- dividuals, is nine times out of ten unfounded. Instead of letting this condition grow there ‘should be some other way in which the truth could be openly arrived st.‘
