Bennett had to offer in the way of legislation had been successive Increases in the customs tariff which had not solved the problem. Unem ployment had increased in Canada from 117.000 in 1030 to 560,000 in 1931 and in 1032 tt was placed at from 500.000 to 726.000. Not only had the number of the unemployed increased but the capacity of the pro- duced. there were hundreds of thou sands of people today without the necessities of life The situation had become such that neither states men, politicians or captains of In-dustry knew what to do. Instead of having to plead with . i. i .i , i i sirangung me people to aeain, to relax their grasp, the people should be organising to unloosen their grip. Mr. Maclnnis stated, declaring that the banks wore, after all. no more powerful than the expression of the will of the people made In the proper way and at the proper time. Finding in 1931 that bis policies were not working, out. Premier Bennett had found a new cause for the depression which he now declared had been due to world-wide conditions and to the extravagance of the farmers ana the working people. Then hi 1932 be blamed it upon Oreat Britain going off the gold standard. Meantime, less public works and more tariff was provided for. Today public works were being discontinued altogether and all that was offered was the dole in its worst form. Fallacy of Economy This year the government had prescribed rigid economy and the reduction of salaries of the civil ser vice aa a solution, thereby leading in a movement to dimmish the purchasing powers of the people. Throughout the Dominion today. there was plenty yet the people were without the necessities of life through thir purchasing power having been destroyed. The speaker eould see no way out of the present difficulties by a policy of economy which only resulted In less It was not because either the for mer King government or the pre sent Bennett government lacked in business ability that they were unable Id cope with the situation. Any government which Intended to administer capitalism would meet with the same fate as had the present one. "I am firmly convinced." asserted Mr. Maclnnis. "that, to remedy the situation, there must be a change in the system of production and distribution. Today capital investment are so huge and the machinery for production so prolific that they have outrun the distri buting end. The principle now is not one of clothing and feeding the needy but of making profits for the owners of capital and to reduce the cost of production at the expense of the workers. "Capitalism has been useful In tea chine us to produce. Now the problem is how to distribute tbe product of their labor among the people who have taken part In pro duction. Mr. Maclnnis discussed the de velopment of the "machine age" during the past 160 years. Capitalism, during the transition, had had its day but had outlived its usefulness and was now faced with extinction.
