The former prime min- ister. added that he, himself, was a much poorer man when he left office than when he entered it. Mr. Asquith explained that the premier had to do a great deal of en- tertaining and afford hospitality to all sorts of conditions of people both 4t home and abroad but, under the existing arrangement, he had to de- fray this expense entirely at his own cost. Even if a government hospitality fund should be provided for enter- taining distinguished foreigners, Mr. Asquith was of the opinion that the premier's salary ought to be ad- vanced. Mr. Asquith had few kind words to say about the privilege which the premier has of occupying the official residence at 10 Downing street. “It is quite true, he said, “that you Nve in the house free from rent, rates and taxes, but it is a very ex- pensive house to keep up. It is a very inconvenient house in many ways; it requires a large staff and B suspect myself that any prime min- ister who had experience of it as T had would, if he were offered the choice, rather not live in it at all” The salary of the premier of Great Britain at present rate of exchange is equivalent to $19,250. This com- pares with a salary of $75000 and $25,000 expenses for the president of the United States; 600,000 francs sal- ary and a similar amount for ex- penses for the president of France and of 100,000 marks salary and 600,- 000 marks expenses for the president of Germany. Members of the cabinet of the pres- ident of the United States receive $12,000 a year. No cigarette has the same delicious flavor as Lucky Strike.

Craig, executive director, Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewater asso- ciation told the delegates to the Mar- keting conference here today. “Six months ago, the railroads were staggering under a load they could not move, a third of last ye: wheat crop was trying to get to mar- ket,” said Mr. Craig. ‘“We have re- covered fromn the worst of that sit- uation, but, during that period, we learned where the weak points were, about the limits Charles capacity. ““We know that one of the princi- pal difficulties is in the terminal fa- cilities of the Atlantic ports. There must be increased port facilities. the port of New York, in order to provide facilities to take care of the } of business, thorities estimate that at least two hundred million dollars must be spent. Probably half that sum would create, and equip at least of the chief lake ports, and when the St Lawrence is open, we will get a larger increase of terminal capacity, for less money, by developing laké ports, than we possibly can be confining ourselves to the scaboard. “But what will the railroads (lo when the next advance in production comes? There is no more slack in the system, no reserve capacity. We must wait till the railroads can ex- pand. Actually, we can get the St Lawrence open, and the lake ports running in less time and at less cost, then the port of New York alone can rebuild and newly equip its terminal system. “The deliver; from the far west well discouraged. It doesn't pay to ship a long distance. The rate ad- vance is reducing the railroad system to hauling commodities from twenty- ve miles, say up to five hundred, vith an extreme range of about a thousand miles. If vou have to go more than a thousand miles by rail. unless your product is highly con- centrated, look out. “Let me remind you that clse in the world is there an attempt to carry on extensive production more than a thousand miles from the water base. 1If this country is not to be marooned, we must have the short road to the sea. and that will be ours when, following nature’s hint, the of the St. Lawrence is opened.” Conmvvittee is Named On Hospital Extension A committee has been named to di- rect the building program of the hos- present volume the au- of farm products has been pretty pital and will consult with architects. shortly with a view to getting an early start on the buildings.
