The dumping bill passed the house yesterday and was sent to the senate. The government expects to have | all three measures through both | houses in time to adjourn the spe cial session of parliament by Satur- | day. Mackenzie King. liberal leader, led the opposition fight in the house of commons yvesterday on the meas- | ure to increase the tariff. He charged the measure would not mitigate unemployment but would increase the cost of living and the cost of production in Canada. He accused the government of re- sorting to coercion to effect enact- ment of the tarift changes under a threat that Canada will not be rep- resented by government leaders at the imperial conference of the Brit- ish Empire unless the tariff bill is passed between now and next Mon- day. He agked that the tariff bill be postponed until after the confer- ence. Says Farmers Will Move. One effect of the increased tariff, said, would be to cause people to move from the farms to the cities because of increased living costs while prices of farm products would not increase correspondingly.

Shaw-Walker’s 400 dealers have shown in- creases in all parts of the country. Fourteen of the larger points showed increases of over 30% above the previous year, and a large number of other dealers showed comparable increases. Only a few did not increase their Shaw-Walker business. During the last eight months, all business concerns have been buying with scrupulous care. Therefore, we feel that this preference for Shaw-Walker office appliances in a time of caution, is a tribute to the “Built-Like-A- Skyscraper” method of building fine tools for the office. BUY NO FILE, BUY NO BANK EQUIPMENT, BUY NO SAFE, BUY NO INDEXING, BUY NO DESK, until you have scen the progress made by Shaw-Walker in these important branches of office equipment. . . We especially invits you to visit our showrooms and see “Skyscraper” the new organized desk by Shaw-Walker. Its new patented working top, its drawers organized for a better day’s work, its invisible wires, telephonc and waste basket, its “Built-Like-A-Skyscraper” construction into one solid piece of steel, and its beauty at a commercial price of $50 to $100, mark it as a revolution in the architecture of the office desk.
