W. T. White Delivers Principal Speech in Com- mons Defends Action of Removing Cement Duty. Ottawa, Noy. 27. A defense by Hon. W. 1. White, minister of finance, of the action of the government in teim- Dorarily reducing the duty on cemeiit from the beginning of June to the end of October, was the feature of the resumed debate on the address in the Commons yesterday. Just be- fore the debate was taken up, the fi- nance niintster made an announce: ment of interest to farmers generally, but more particularly to those of the west. J. A. M.Aikens, of Brandon, had just introduced a bill to amend the Bank Act, which would authorize the banke to lend money on gtain An store and other products of the farm. W. F. McLean urged that the bill be made to include livestock, when he was interrupted by Mr. White, who, in a few sentences, ex- plained that the new bank bill which he proposed to introduce shortly, would cover both the proposal by Mr, Aikens and the addition suggest- ed by Mr.-McLean. Mr. White did Bot go into details, but his scheme Was positive in its character. Mr. Aiken asked that his bill be given a first reading, but in view of the minister's statement it is not likely to be proceeded with further. Mr, White's explanation of the Te- duction of duty on coment was that the aceon for cutting the duty order to: influence the etpetiong: in 5 Danbatmiewe 6 bad begs charred 17 now: oppoaition speakers. Mr. Gauthlere, of St. Hyacinthe, who followed with his maiden In English, told of his experiences in Macdonald constituency during the recent bye-election. He said he had been shadowed by detectives for elev- en et aos that his baggage had been tampered with and that an-effort had been made to induce a certain individ- ual to charge that Gauthiere hnd at- tempted to bribe him. The debate was continued until 1 o'clock by 0. Turgeon, of Gloucester, N.B., and Gustave Boyer, of Vaudre- uil, and sdjournment was moved by Mr, Burnham ot Vietorla, who will speak first on Wednesday. No Foreign Vote. Major Currie, of North Simcoe, n- troduced a bill to amend the erimi- Hal code. Its objective was to pre- vent foreigners from taking any part nw 4m th Dominion. This, he sald ros provide a fine of 1060 and Six months tmprison- ment for any who yotes or in any way purticipates in an election. In the event of the non-payment of the lt;fin the terms of imprisonment would be increased to one year. Major Cur- Tie said he understood that it was Proposed in some of the western provinces to allow people not Brit- ish gubjects, to vote. This bill would Prevent this, He was, however, re particularly for his) own constituency where Americans had appeared on the-same platform with the former premier and asked the voters to defeat him. The bill was given a first reading. le Minister of Finance, Hon, W. T. White devoted major Part of his apecch to setting forth the causes ledding up to, and the Sovernment s action in cutting in two the duties on cement entering Can- ada iftrom the United Stgtes. Inst summer. Ho sald that in criticizing the government, members of the op- position overiooked simiidr action by the Tate government in regard to the coal, and wondered if the leader of ,the opposition were not, more con- cerned about his friend and counsel- lor, the head of the cement merger, than about the welfare of the coun- try. The criticism had been made last sossion that the government was identified with the trusts and com- dines and deliberate mistepresenta: tion had been made as to his posl- tion as minister of finance, but he would say that this was the first gov- ernment that had ever served notice upon the cement merger that if they desired to. retain their market they Must take care of it, otherwise there Would be others to take cate of it for them. speech PF cy as the reason for the government's faction, Upon what evidence, he ask- ed, could the charge be made that tf was done to influence the Saskatche- wan elections? it was quite within the power of the opposition leader to woo alf the correspondence upon which the action of the government Was base , but Instead be read a ter from cement maker in an ob- scure journal, grovsly misrepresent- ing what had taken place. For this he was open to the gravest censure. Mr. White quoted Hon: Frank Oliv- er as being tn favor of lower cement duties, but nevertheloss in full agree ment with Sir Wilfrid. When, asked the: minister, had the member dong anything but play follow the leader? Was his loyalty to the whole crying rout for cement merely a Up loyalty or was it really loyalty to the cement merger? Oliver 1 objected to the. govern- ment having put duty-back on cement in October. (Laughter and cries of Ob, Oh.)
