Correspondent of Financial Psoer According to the correspondent. Gives Reasons Why Head of CYIi. Cannot Remain Salary Is Huge Loose System is Chirred in Connection With Various Departments of National System The Ottawa correspondent of the Financial Post in a special article on the subject suggests that the resignation or retirement of Sir Henry Thornton is only a matter the most damaging revelations concern the salary paid to Sir Henry, and the expense accounts of National railway officials. Everyone understood that Sir Henry was under a contract, to expire about 1934. allowing him a salary of $75,000 per year. This contract negotiated when Hon. C. A. Dunning was minister of railways was an improvement, from Sir Henry's point of view, over the former contract. It gave him more money. But it now appears that Sir Henry drew from the National railway or subsidiaries the following income in 1930: Salary $ 75.000 of time. He says that Sir Henry has (Special allowance been placed in an impossible posi- Kaaui:irrat!iaiiir.a?i?BiBiBT!a QUALITY FOOD At Bargain Prices at the THRIFT BULKLEY VALLEY On Sale Saturday at per doe.

A comparison of this kind, perhaps, to scarcely fair. since there is no assurance of per manency in the presidency of the National Railways and there is this assurance In several of the positions mentioned. A truer comparison woald lit with the presidents of other railways, but here. also, it will be found that Sir Henry's re ceipts from the National were quite out of line.
