Feb. 28. 1931 Although airplane travel is in its iafancy in Canada, last year very close to 56,000 people used the plane as a means of reaching their destination rapidly. At the same time about a million and a half pounds of freight was car-1 ried by the air route. These figures have to do only with j publicly operated planes. . In . addition there were a number ; t A 1 T 1 ' - ' oi private air pnois operating, immense aavanpes in air travel may be expected during the next few years. TRADE WITH RUSSIA i These figures are interesting in view of some recent ! comments on Russian trade with Canada from Rt. Hon. i Arthur Meighen, He is quoted as saying that "we have been accustomed in this country to take special protection against invasion by dumping." It wiH be observed that our purchases of Russian goods jumped by more than $600,000 in 1930, but our sales increased in the same period by more than twice that amount For the time being, therefore, there is a big advantage in our favor, and if at any time an embargo measure is considered necessary, action can be taken.

I read that Interesting letter of Mr. Meraan's proposing to taken wheat straw in from the prairie. Now that his gigantic Intellect has devised a way to take the strawberry through the winter, all we need added to the so-called "ideal" summer weather Is a tittle moisture tor the plants during the growing season to make the ber ries form. Then when berries have formed, something will have to be done to keep the rain from ruin ing the whole crop. How is this to be done? Suppose! the same reason that we 'Import! our straw from the prairie Instead of the Bulkley will suffice for not using the water of the river which flows from the latter. Therefore we will divert the Saskatchewan River to Terrace strawberry patches. Blast a hole through the Rockies and let her How, then the berries would form. But what about the rain that will ruin the crop? Wouldn't the mois ture rush through the hole In tin- Rockies and give the moisture to the growing wheat fields insteaiH of ruining Terrace strawberries. Then we would have strawber ries for Terrace.

Do You Want More Branch Factories? What is a factory worth to Canada, that five steady year-round employment to five thousand hands? It depends upon where it' a located, doesn't it? It it's located in Canada, it's worth a small fortune to us. But if it's located at our very border but still outside of Canada, it may be worth nothing at all io us. I" any event, it is almost certain to be worth far less than the branch it might be persuaded to establish in 11 alii at, or Vancouver, or any part in between, even though that branch gave steady employment to on y fifty hands! No matter where they locate in relation to where we reside, we're always delighted to hear of branch factories being established in Canada, be cause of the employment they create for Canadian labour, the market they provide for Canadian farmers and Canadian merchants, and the business activity they stimulate in counties wys and in countless quarters. Thus far, in our efforts to promote their establishment within our borders, we hove made use of but one lever our tariff. For a time t proved to be a very effective lever. During the period preceding the war the harvest was considerable. But of recent years the annual crop cf branch factories has been lean quite disappointingly so when we re fie t that tha justification for their establishment should be greater than ever before, due to the tact that our a imports of merchandise keep steadily increasing. Isn't there something that each of us as individuals might do to help get the movement in full swing again? Suppose we steadfastly refused to buy merchandise that we knew to have bttnimported, wouldn't tha" cause a lot of these outside manufacturers to reconsider their plant? Not long since, the manufacturer of an imported product, the annua! sale of which in Canada runs into millions of dollars, boasted that n? acfon this country might take vcould ever force him to establish 3 branch factory here. When he said that he was, of course, think.: g only of one kmd of action tariff action! And feeling secure in tho advantage of a low manufacturing cost obtained through massprodm Hon, he probably had some justification tor believing that his hand could not be forced. But he overlooked one very important point. And that is that wh,l Canadians have always shown themselves a very tolerant people in their attitude towards imported merchandise, they are quick to resent unfairness of any hind when practised against themselves. Now that particular manufacturer buys no materials from Canada. The workmen he employs buy nothing that has been produced in Canada, From the operation of his huge industry the people of this country derive no profit whktsoever. Why then should they continue to buy his product when there are available to them at equa,t prices products of the same Canada" " W"r, that have been made in Not only that particular manufacturer, but scores of others, could be forced to open up branch factories in this country under pain of losing their entire Canadian business, if each and very one of us, before completing a single purchase, were first to make absolutely sure that the article had been produced in Canada! Very sincerely yours Minister of Trade and Commerce.
