Government on Tariff The following address on the 3mg. set was delivered in the] House of Commons. March 11th, by Hon. John A. MacDonald, Conservative member for Kings — . . M-r- Breaker, in rising briefly w discuss the budget. I feel _that the mlslfll? criticism delivered last Thllfsflfly by the then, acting leader °1 W! pasty (Mr. Guthrie) covered the sroundso thoroughly that the Conservative case might well b; 113t- ed there. ; However. there areueu. ally some local aspen‘ to much those members who follow the lead- ers can give attention. _ _ _ _ As has lalready been stated, the fin. ancial eofldltion of the country lstset out in the budget speech in clearpsnd concise terlns. The facts and figures are doubtless correctly statedpbut the ‘ I which the Minister ‘of Finance (Mr. Robb) seeks to draw therefrom I submit are not altogeth- er warranted. It can . gflgfly be shown that other V‘ ‘ so-called Robb budgets have-contrib- uted to the prosperity and increaing trade of the Dominion. It can also be shown, as the member for York- Sunbury (Mr. Hanson) pointed out this afternoon, that the much-vaunt- ed proeperity is not as far ‘reaching as is claimed by the government and their supporters. The prosperity is largely a paper prosperity and is con- fined to the larger cities. As a. mat- ter of fact the annual reports of our banks and large corporations are re- lied on as evidence of that prosper- ity. I agree with my hon. friend from York-Sunbury that if you apply the prosperity test to New Brunswick. Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Is- land, to the farmers and flshennen of those provinces, and to many oth- els who to-day are struggling for a livelihood, the result is not as satis- factory as the government would have us believe. The eloquent speech of the hon. gentleman who has just resumed his seat (Mr. McMillan) was the most amazing example of inconsistency that I have heard this session“ ‘He opened his addIE-B-s by 80101!!! u!“ everything is prosperous, but that high protection stands in the way" o1 prosperity. He seems to overlook the fact that the government oi’ which he is such an enthusiastic supporter are maintaining this high protection, and at the same time they lose no opportunity to proclaim the great prosperity which the country is enjoying under their beneficient mn- trol. But the hon. gentleman goes further. he characterizes this high protection es embodying I V1910"! principle. notwithstanding the fact that the government which he has supported so unquestionirlgly have had the power at any time 0W1“! the last seven or eight W"! 0° P110 an end to high protection.

The last slim- thafy issued by the Department of National Revenue shows that in the ten months of the present fiscal year, up to January, 1929, the duties col- lected in this country amounted _to $162,703,554, as compared with the duties collected for the same period in 1928 of $139,355,327, or an increase in the last ten months, in duties paid -—which the Liberal party has al- ways claimed to be a tax-o! $23348,- 227 for South Wellington (Mr. Guthrie) showed by figures taken from the public records that the average in- crease in taxation during the last five years as compared with the inst five years of Conservative rule in Canada, amounted to 351.000.1100 per ennum. Yet, in face cf these facts. hon. gentlemen opposite will stand up and say that they are reducing taxation. The fact is that there never was a time in the history of Canada when taxation was as high as it is tc-day by many millions of dollars; and notwithstanding the fact that they claim some credit for a reduction in the rate of taxation here and there, the situation shows that taxation has very largely in- creased. ' If this increase in taxa- wcre being economically made use of, if we were getting from i: the services which the country stand: most in need of, if we were obtain- ing a. reduction in the debt to the extent that we might have by the practice of economy. then all would be well. But apparently this addi- tional money has had the effect of iod of extravagant expenditure irl which no amounts are too large. I am one of those who would like to see Ottawa made beautiful; I am lust as anxious as anyone else to see this done. But I do not believe that the millions of dollars voted for this purpose are being well expended, especially at the present time when the country he's so many other pres- sing obligations. including the bur- den of debt which we are carrying. I do not believe that half a million —or more than half a million-ex- pended on automobiles in this coun- try is an economical or reasonable ex, ndlture. And there are many others that one could cite; one could go on for an hour proving reckless and extravagant expenditures. These are but samples. Yet the govem- ment, because, as they claim, they have no money; are obliged to dis- continue the technical education grant; the statement from the treas- ury benchm is that there is no mon- ey. And they are obliged also to re- fuse any contribution to good roads in Canada; they have no money with which to mist the provinces along that line. But I would point out that there is qggnovement in this country to-day which would be of as great value to the farmers and to others who are attempting to carry on‘ business as would be the improve- ment of the roads. ’I‘he last speaker (Mr. McMillan) referred to a national ‘ highway'_to cost $200,000,000. Why, Sir, that is simply sidetracking the issue; no one jwuld seriously consider such a. thing. But there are ways and means of promoting the development of good roedt in this country. without tack- ling such a project This Domin- ioh. I believe, should follow thelead given by the late Co tive gov- amount when 080000.000 was voted tousist the provinces in road work. Ififi‘? iiliil-L ilriliei.

So . that, from the standpoint of economy, 2 they are falling; there ls no doubt at i all that rank extravagance can be‘ proved against the government. I There are many matters involved} in a discussion on the budget, and] among these may be included, as im- portant questions, markets and trans- 1 portatlon. When we come to look‘ at this government's work along this 5 line we also find much room for cri- i, tlclsln. Markets and transportzltions! are largely complementary; they go} Viland in hand. And when this gov-i ‘crnlnent established, under the Bri-l, lCanadlan National Steamship Lino‘ landput steamers on that route, they terror in not including as a port ofé call for these steamships the city of] that under the treaty as it_ now} stands this may be difficult and per- haps impossible. But I would urge as strongly as possible on the Min- ister of ‘Trade and Commerce (Mr. Malcolm) and the Minister of Fin- ance iMr. Robb), who have this work in hand, the desirability of making Havana a port of call for these steumrhips. Probably“ the British , West Indies would not agree, inas-i much as they are paying a, gubsjdyi in support of the service. I submit. however, that it would pay the coun- try, it would play the Canadian Na- tional Steamships, to abandon that subsidyand make Cuba a port of; call. What ulould happen? To-dayi tiees: boat: are going id the West In- i rlirs with very little freight; they are! nvrt half loaded. But if they lverei iailolved to touch at Havana everyi cubic fcct of space would b: filled with potatoes every trip.

I sub- mit that ii’ it is possible to make some arrangement whereby these boats could call at Havana-they pass that port within 11L few miles every two weeks—it would operate to the ad- vantage of the marizimes. If this cannot be done. some other service should be establisllechand subsidized by the government in order to pro- vide a connection with the port of Havana. That brings us to the general con- dition of the potato market at the present time. which everyone knows to be very bad. If it were not for the fact that Prince Edward Island potatoes are recognized as the best obtainable anywhere we would have had a very poor market last fall; in fact it was poor at its best. but to give you some idea of how largely the quality enters into the marketing of our crop I will just quote from the lUnited States market report in con- nection with the Boston market a few days ago. The quotations show a very decided preference for Prince Edward Island stock, as follows: Maine. 100-pound sacks, Green Mountains. United Slates No. 1. sacked locally, also-alas. Prince Edward Island. Bil-pound lacks. Green Mountains A grade, 01.50-01.10. That condition assisted us very ma- i I i BREAD HIDE P)‘ GU/WDIAN this year, because the same guer- ence is shown in Cuba and the Canadian markets.’ Even ad that. however, we cannot unload the flrge |qumltity of excellent j, tatoes which still remains -in the hands of the farmers. In that connection I might say that we have been endeavoring to take advantage of the market which exists in western Canada; it is not a good market with regard to price but it could be made an out- let for a considerable quantity of our potatoes. In endeavoring to make use of it\the Canadian National Rail- ways did giveus a very nice reduc- LiOil in freight rates, but it was not sufficient to enable us to send our produce to western Canada; the freight rates were still too high al- A few dgys no the hon member i tish West Indies trade agreement, the ' though a few carloads were shipped.

This winter the shippers appealed ‘Ito the Canadian National Railways Ifor a further reduction of 15 cents .per hundred pounds, which would rnable its to ship quite a few pota- toes to the west.

They should give protection when-rlaedodv-something- which will be stable and which will allow our farmers to carry on with a reasonable assurance that they will at least have the full benefit of the Canadian mar- ket when the foreign markets will not absorb our products. ' These same arguments may be ap- plied to the butter trade, and not- withstanding the statements of the last speaker we find that there hes been an enormous-change in the im- POIK‘! Ind exports of butter since the Australian treaty came into effect. We find that there has been a seri- ous decrease in the deirying indust- ry generally, and we all know that the number of cattle inCanada has dropped seriously.

These are the latest figures taken‘ from the dairy letter issued by the Department of Agriculture and re-i ceived to-dcy; the figures include; our exports up to January of this? ,year. Now lotus consider the other: ‘side of the picture; in 1925 we im-li ported 162,848 pounds of butter, while I according to the same letter last year f we imported 21,108,000 pounds, val-, ued at over $7,000,000, The farmers of this country should have produced‘ that butter and should have distrlb-i utcd lizat. money among tilcmrsellves: And the loss is not. only the money‘, lost by not producing this butter. as‘ every farmer knows; in eastern Can-y .340. eiheeially, we are not able tol {keep up the fertility of the soil if we do not keep cat-tie.

This was true to some extent, but we are getting our stuff much cheap- er today than in the day-s when we were manufacturing at home in a small way.
