Agriculture and fishing-the Is-

A definite improve- ment was beirig noted in farming. however, more so among the larger farms. the smelter ones being still confronted with great difficulties in financing their crops. in view of depleted credit over two years. On the whole, the Premier believed things to be "picking up.”

Educational Improvement

One advantage of the depression

Enrolment in the nor- mal school was bio, he informed, which was 300 more than in any preceding year.

D- Tillsy, Premier of New Brunswick, in an address here yesterday be- fore the Conservative Association of Montreal.

He said: "Who realises it more

than the man in public life that f-irpenditures must be curtailed. budgets balanced and services cut? While public debts of the Domin- ion and the provinces have increas- ed beyond what they should. inter- est charges on capiial expenditure are higher than what they should be"

Suggestions Welcome

Recalling that the Canadian

Chamber of Commerce had told Ottawa to curtail expenses, Prem- ier Tilley challenged "these busi- ness gentlemen to sit in and try to balance governmental budgets."

Each government will balance its

budget, he insisted, just as soon ss the wheels of industry and com- merce kct vibmting and back to normal. "Meanwhile," he argued, “bank managers must say some- thing in their annual sddrmses so they take slaps sr. the govemment."
