DAILY EDITION Friday. Nov. 11. 1927 SENATE DYING NATURAL DEATH The Toronto Globe takes up the question of the uefulneu or otherwise of the Canadian Senate, saving: If the member of the Interprovincial Conference in session at Ottawa this vrtfk wish to take up Senate reform seriously they need not laek advice. Unfortunately, there is an air of doubt in the public mind as to the serious purpose of public men on this question. There have been too many promises and too little performance. An indignant Prime Minister who finds a Senate majority opposed to him becomes strangely softened as the Senate veers to his side in course of time. - A few days ago a member of the Senate from Ontario passed awa'yV and The Chesley Enterprise was moved to comment pointedly with the opening remark that nobody had ever heard of anything useful this Senator had done. His practice, according to The Enterprise, was like that of the other members: to "sign his name in the'attendance register and then disappear for the balance of the day? The Enterprise adds : "As a matter of fact there are ninety-four out of the ninety-six Senators dead, but they haven't been buried oi cremated. The only two actually alive are Dandurand, who takes such a, prominent part in the proceedings of the League of Nations, and Slf George B. Foster, who gives the public information bv his addresses and letters In the preaa." These are strong words, but how much are they an exaggeration? The Senate meets on the opening day of the session, passes the Address in a half-hour or so next day, and then adjourns for a few weeks. Its working days are exceedingly few compared with those of the Commons. Some of the days spent by the Commons msy see. little accomplished, but the Senate does not give even the ap- ITaiauvc vi itnig iu i c jiucr me wdhc vxfwiru ui u. "'TheSenators eTiouId be seized" with a greater desire lb do some thing constructive. They are seldom heard of usless they start a spasm of obstruction. Their life membership and their irresponsibility deprive them of any just right permanently to obstruct the legislation of the Commons. Canada should, first of all, adopt the system of Britain, and provide that a bill passed at three consecutive sessions of the Commons should become law regardless of the Senate. Even Nova Scotia passed such a law to curb its Legislative CevnciL in which members' terms are limited to ten years. Ottawa afford to do leas. EASTERN VIEW OF IJ.C. The same paper looks across to the Pacific coast and sees British Columbia and remarks: British Columbia will not have a general election as a result of the change of premiers. Hon. J. D. MacLean, the new head of the government, following the death of Hon. John Oliver, told a Victoria audience that the province is thriving and that there is no need to go to the people, as he proposes to continue the Oliver policies. These policies have been highly beneficial to the coast province, according to the atory told by- Dr. MacLean. The early years ofthe war, when the boom conditions of 1912 had passed and left theip'mark, were exceedingly trying for British Columbia. The Liberal Government which came into office in 1916 found bread lines in operation, a deficit of $12,000,000 in four years, sinking funds $600,000 in arrears, and provincial credit impaired. The'prime minister said one of the first acts of the new gov ernment was to balance the budget and restore the sinking uads. ngncuiiure nas ueen encourageu, capital attracted to the province. ana taxation reduced. A formidable list of new investments of capital was cited. Production in the major industries has also steadily- increased. "There never has been a time in the history of this pro vince wnen capital was investing here as it is at the present time,' said Dr. MacLean. The coast province has experienced depression, but that is passing. It still has its P.G.E. Railway, a pioneer line which traverses a broad interior territory which an yet supplies little traffic. . Efforts to sell the road have not proved successful. Production in the four major industries lumbering, agriculture, mining and fish fng Is rising, and the province is now third in the Dominion in manufacturing. A great port at Vancouver is in the making, and as the prairies grow in population traffic via Pacific coast points In outgoing wheat and incoming goods will increase, and benefit Britifh Columbia.
