It is to the credit of our Canadian educational system . though the responsibility of ad- istration has been placed in the ids of the Individdal provinces. there is a singular freedom from local or sectional interest in the policies of education which the various provinces have evolved.

He quoted Sir Thomas Holland, president of the British Association for the Ad- vancement of Science, who hud fore- told predominance in the future, both in Indust war, for the and if need arose, in areas endowed with western Europe a. The big four im natural resources onteibuting (othe national growth of Canada, were agriculture, forests ines and water power. said the speaker, When we consider the im- mensity of our undeveloped. resources And the untouched waterpower avail- bie we catch some vision of the pos: sibilities, he stated Mr, Dafoe stressed the need for greater protection of the public right Invnatural resources with the ever-growing demands, he beleved. the gouetnmants-of the pro- vines must fook more and more to the natural resources for the enlarge- ment of the revenues to meet. these demands The threat of the chain retail stores to the Independent storekeeper was hot very great in the opinion of D. Martin, PRD., economist of the Royal Bank of Canada, who spoke to the Canwdian Chamber of Commerce to- day on the tople: The Contribution of the Distributing Trades to'the Part- nership. He believed that. the pop lar, thielligent and energetic retailer would be abfe to take a large volume of business from all but the best man Aged chalry stores. He thought, how ever, that bath chain and independent concerns would continue to exist side by sige Bankers. Heard Biatistical studies of the compara- tive eosts in large departmental storen and chain departmental stores showed that individually operated stores. run on etficlent lines had slight advan- tage over chain department. stores. in 1928 so far as net profits were con- cerned, Mr. Marvin said. Canadian banks had made an im- portant. contetbution ta the Canadian Reonomic partnership in many ways, 1, N.

My own experierice is that Cans- dian banking is highly competitive, and, considering the voluine of bust: hess we handin and ihe service we Rive in good. times and in bad times When losses are inevitable, Ido not think the profits of banking on per- centage basis are comparable with those of many commercial enter- prises Profita were used. in the building up of reserve funds for the better protection of the depositors The Canadian banking system, which in a large measure gave Canada her high credit standing, was one of the soundest and strongest in the world.
