The minister of finance announced yesterday in parliament that no material rhunge would, be made in the budget from the proposal first made when it was brought down. This is rflong i lie line of established practice and is the only reasonable one. The budget changes should be thought out' so well in advance that no changes should be necessary mice it is made public. If other action is taken it is clear that pressure will be brought to bear to .change every budget between the time it rs announced and Ihe lime it is sulopted b'y parliament. The provisions of the budget, unless otherwise slated, come inbeffect the day the speech is delivered iti the House of Commons; That is lo prevent manipulation or hedging. Sometimes it i. a little. difficult to make changes rapidly but on the whole Ihe provision is a wise one and is adopted by praclicallv all governments where responsible government obtains. Sinee'the delivery of the budget speech, efforts have been made to induce the government to relinquish the provision re ducing .theuuly o?v automobiles. This has been consistently re fused. It isto Io supposed that the change was decided on by the -whole cauuiejbe fore, Jt wy announced 'and that all the eventualities wrttwwell considered,, JLalVo wa to be anticipated that there would be a strong 'protest and possibly a demon- Mraiion soon as nas occurred m me east lor Hie purpose or in ri ...... ... ....... .... !

Not Encouraged Asiatics Canada has never sought to encourage Asiatic immigration. Nevertheless, immigrants have been entering the Dominion from China for nearly a hundred years and fry m Japan for something less than half that time. So far as the personal life and conduct of these settlers is concerned no problem has arisen. The Asiatic fn Canada has shown himself to be possessed of such virtue as frugality, industry, thrift and so briety. He has established him self as in, no sense inferior lo the Occidental in either intelli gence or integrity. For the most part ha lives in conditions which are. new and strange to him, yet he respect and observes the law even when that law Is distasteful and irritating to him. Further- uiore 'his services to the nation were not lacking in time of war, when lie gave freely of man power and money. White intelligent Canadian opinion is of one mind on this point it is less easy to ipeasure on Ihe suhjeel of future policy respectinK the admittance of Oriental settlers. There appear jo be growing sentiment that the barriers of race, color, language and tradition have proved and aro likely to prove insur-niountable. The Asiatic has not assimilated with the Canadian and this fact is compelling care Minister of Labor lo Tokyo lo seek a diplomatic adjustment of the problem. The . negotiations resulted in a settlement, falls-, factory, for the time being at least, to both parlies, for the Japanese government as reed not to insist upon Us full rights un der the treaty and pledged itself lo take eminent mean to re strict emigration to Canada. The regulations under which this new form or restrict ion was in become operative provided that passports should be issued only, to ;i Japanese previously re si-' dents of Canada, and their wives and children, i2 domestic and. acriciillural laborers, the mini-' ber of which should not exeeed 100 annually and 3 contract' emigrants. Further negojlalions followed between the two eoimlrhM and on , April 3. lull, a new treaty of commerce and navigation was signed by (ireat Itrltaiu ami Japan. This time Canada expressed its willingness to adhere to the treaty, subject to the provision that it should not be doem-i ed to repeal any provisions of the 1911 that prepared lo maintain with equal j effectiveness the limitation and control which Uiey have since .1908 exercised in the regulation or emigration from Japan lo Canada. Heated DsbaU Opposition to this , settlement was expressed in the Canadiana parliament In May, 1922, when a healed depate resulted in tho adoption or a resolution that the government should "take Imme diate aelion with a -v few- curing the effective restriction" of future Asiatic ' Immigration. The resolution in its original form used the word "exolusjon" instead of "effective restriction," and the modiried term was substituted at'the Migaeslion of thn government. iXewolialions " Choose the Laundress who uses Sunlight Soap SOME laundresses do your washing without regard to the damage they do to your clothes.
