At the beginning of the month the tWth-screw steamer the "Princess Joan" built by the Fairfield Shipbuilding Company for the C.PJI., was launched at Govan, and a week later the "Prince David," built for the Canadian National Steamships by Cammell Laird and Co, was launched at Birkenhead.

If the country, was not good enough to attract them they ' should be allowed to remain where they are. Apparently now the Government is coming around to that view. Discussing this the Winnipeg Free Press says: "Although information is still vague as to the suggested change of administration of Canada's immigration, it is evident that what is contemplated will put into effect a large measure of provincial control. Since the great bulk of immigration is to the western provinces, it is here that interest will focus in these changes. Doubtless settlement of the natural resources question with the return of these to the western provinces has hastened action in this matter, since it takes the free lands out of Dominion control and puts them under the provinces. But there have been other f actoix Chief among these have been the protests from organizations in all the western provinces against what was termed a too large influx from "non-preferred" countries, protests which culminated this year in the urging of a definite stand against the proposed immigration of Mennonites driven out of Russia. At that time the Provincial Governments concerned were consulted bv the Dominion Government and the promise given that the answer received would be the governing factor. Apparently under the proposed change of administration what has been conce (fed as a courtesy will be conferred as a right. Ddes this mean that final control of immigration shall rest with the provinces? It is fairly evident that, in keeping with present public opinion, all forms of induced immigration by the Dominion must go. If it is to be carried on the provinces will have to do the work. But it is also evident that migration from Great Britain and Europe will go on, ana since Canada is one of the "last wests,' that migration Will tend to flow here. Therefore certain requirements which immigrants must meet as to health, morals, worldly possessions and occupational fitness, must be maintained, and there must be machinery to apply and enforce them. What those requirements snail be, and how they are to be enforced, must clearly rest with the federal Government in the first place, because the dealing is with other nationals, ad therefore only the Federal Government is recognized as authoritative; and secondly, because with easy access among the provinces only one standard of entrance to Canada is feasible. deputy.

The Chinese blamed Balfour and declared that It bore out what a critic had said of him: "Charm he has In a high degree: but It is an illusive charm. His address is curiously winning and appealing: but politically it lias no basis In loyalty or rooted af fection. He smiles upon his friends and leaves them to the wolves." At 20, In 1874 he was born July 23, 1848 Balfour entered the House of Commons. He had become a re-cognlzeCyscholar at Eton and Cambridge, but appeared td lean more to the religious and philosophic thai to the practical and political side of life. Everyone was surprised when a few years after his arrival at West minster he Joined forces with the Conservative rebel element known as the Fourth Party, whose other three members were Lord Randolph Churchill, Sir Henry Drummond Wolff and 81r John Gerst. These men proclaimed Independence of party ties and voted on measures according to their merits. All of them were brilliant debaters. After the Liberals had had a long lease of power Balfour was appointed In 1885 a member of the Salisbury Conservative Government i but not of the cabinet) as president of the Local Government Board. It was only a few months until the Liberals under Gladstone again threw out the Conservatives, who, however, turned the tables on their opponents once more In the same year, 1886, when Balfour became first, Secretary for Scotland and then Chief Secretary for Ireland. BECAME .PREMIER For 10 yew consecutively the Conservative party remained in power until 1905. In the Interval, after Salisbury's death, Balfour had succeeded to the position of Premier. In 1902. In 1905 the question of tariffs rang the death-knell of the Conservative administration and brought about the temporary eclipse of Balfour, but the next year. 1906, he was elected a member of parliament from the city of Lon don and served mainly In that ca pacity until the outbreak of the World War in 1914 again brought his abilities as an administrator into recognition. Balfour remained at the Foreign Office until peace was formally concluded. He then became Lord President of the Council an office without departmental duties which eased life for him and at the same time enabled his colleagues in the cabinet to profit by his ripe experience and his sage advice. In 1922. Balfour was created. A knight of the Garter, one of the highest honors It Is In the power of the Sovereign to bestow. He had already had, another signal dls Unction, the Order of Merit, con ferred upon him, and with a few! months his knighthood was forgot ten in an earldom. ' With his entry Into the Upper House. Lord Balfour became 'it leader until there was a change Of government. In 1925, when Hon. Stanley Baldwin formed second ministry after the brief term In office of the Socialist party, Lord Balfour was again appointed Lord President of the Council. Indeed, It seemed as If, with ad vancing years, his ripe wisdom was felt to be more and more in dispensable to the country. This tendency was not confined to pol ltlcs.

The war had a wonderful effect In bringing out into ' bold relief the qualities of statesmen; and It was very gratifying to find how men who had been the centres of bitter controversy In their day. won the affection and regard of men who had been often ranged against them.

Should the Monacan elections, March 30, result in the proclamation Jf a republic, France which exercises complete domination over the principality will be placed in an embarrassing situation because her treaty with Monaco recognizes only the dynasty headed by Prince Louli If the people vote to over throw the dynasty.
