CANADIAN BANKS
NATIONALISATION PROPOSAL MINISTER'S OPPOSITION (Received February 5, 5.5 p.m.) OTTAWA, Feb. 4 The Minister of Finance, Mr. E. N. Rhodes, in the House of Commons today opposed a proposal made by Mr. William Irvine (United Farmers' Party) to nationalise the banks in Canada. If banks were socialised, said the Minister, Governments would control banking principles and eventually smash them. He asked what would happen if a Government facing an election had to choose between the country's good and its own political fate.
