" - Wa r Scare Brant Crew Ha‘ , Exploited By Interesting TriP Liberal Leader

(C. P. By Qul-rdlalfs Special Wire)

QUEBEC, Sept. d-Canada must .not be committed to war in the in- terval before the installation of a new Parliament, without an expres- sion oi popular will in a plebiscite Liberal Leader Mackenzie King said ‘here Saturday night. He coupled this declaration with s demand for a definite statement from Prime Minister R. B. Bennett as to what answer he would send to London should Canada he asked to partic- ipate in any action likely to result in war.

"I read what he said the other night," said Mr. King, "about Can- ada not going to enter a war unless Canadian interests were involved. But that is not enough. Who is go- ing to say whether Canadian inter- ests are involved? There is only one man to ‘decide that now and that is Mr. Bennett.

"There being no Parliament and the Ministry having gone beyond its term of oifice Mr. Bennett has no right whatever, directly or indirect- ly, in any shape or form to commit this country to any stand with res- pect to what may be done abroad in relation to the possibility of war."

HEITERATES LEADERIS VIEWS

ers walked slowly up the centre aisles and at the appropriate time the Brothers deposited a rose in an Eversreen wreath for each of the members who died within the past year, viz.. D. A. Bruce, J. J. Mg. Kinnon. l". L. Renouf and Chas. Leigh, and the Sisters, all dressed in white, deposited wreaths so as to form the Triple Link. Brothers Jas. Calder and A. R. ‘Gillie sang solos. It was a most interesting cer- emony. Rev. Hugh Miller preached the sermon and extended a very cordial welcome to the visiting members.

Captain Basil Kelly of the C. G. S. Brant, which has just arrived in Charlottetown, reports a most in- terestlng experience. interviewed yesterday he told the following etc ' -

ry.

"We left Charlottetown on Aug- ust 12th with a large cargo oi sup- plies for various lighthouses along the New Brunswick Coast. Our first port oi call was Escuminac, ivhere we landed twenty-five ions of coal for the lighthouse there; we then proceeded along the northern coast as far as Pokemouche. supplying all the lighthouses enruute. We next arrived in Miramichi Bay and River thence along the coast to Cape Tor- mentinc.

“It was at this particular time that so many forest fires were rag- ing throughout New Brunswick, and at Portage Island in the Miramichi Bay, where thereuars a number of government buildings. including a lighthouse, we were ordered to go ashore to help fight the fires which were becoming quite serious and_en- dangering all the buildings. So dense was the smoke. that‘ land could not be seen at all on either side of the river. hence it was ne- cessary to sound our way with the lead in order to keep in the chan- nel and not run our ship ashore. The heal. at this time was becom- ing so torrid that the engineers and firemen had great difficulty in at- tending to their duties and keeping to their posts. We finally managed to get into a. position to land most of our crew, ‘who were joined on shore by a large number of fire- fighters, including Mounted Police. who had come down from New- castle. N. B.. to assist. With shov- els, axes and picks we went to work to dig trenches. etc. and for hours we were combatttng the flames, making very little progress. To the great rejoicing of all concerned a North East storm came up, followed by a heavy downpour of rain which finally quenched the fires. but not until thousands of acres of valuable timber had been destroyed.

Our next call to duty was to go to the assistance of the fishing ves- sel “Alma" which was in distress-at West Point with a crew of five men. Upon our arrival at the scene it was found necessary to take the crew off and abandon the vessel. At Richi- bneto, N. 13., we landlrrthvm safely.

0n the way home. we passe through miles of floating r. bwoo between West Point and Fifteen Point. This wood had been washed off steamers. had gone adrift rlur- ing that North East storm.

The "Brant" will take in bunker beiore sailing again on a 11811950!!!" Qupply trip. Much praise is due captain Kelly and his crew for m; good work which they accom- plished on their voyages.

similar views on international complications were expressed by Hon. Ernest Lapointe. Mr, King's chief lieutenant in the Province of Quebec. He said .no interest in Ethiopia was worth the sacrifice of a. single Canadian life and demand- ed an expression of popular will be- fore any war commlttments should be made.

At another point in Mr. King's speech he said: "I believe the peop‘e of Canada would be strongly oppos- ed to a war connected with econo- mic interests in the near east. So far as the Liberal party ls concern- ed we believe in the supremacy of Parliament and when there is no Parliament there should be a man- date from the people themselves. taken in the form of a plebiscLc. if ndCSSSBry, before any action is tak- en li-kely to lead to war."

Mr. King recalled the Chanak in- cident of 1922 when war against Turkey loomed on the horizon as an exampl cf how quickly decisions of far-reaching import relating to peace or war were thrust upon whatever small group of men hap- pened to be at the head oi the gov- emmsnt.

His own action as Prime Minister in refusing to commit Canada to a conflict with the ‘lurks at that time had averted steps which might have led to war. A cable was sent motion on the British domin

He reports a good market in China for electrical refrigerators although they are practically the only modern household appliance finding favor with the Chinese.

The main foods irr China for thousands of years have been dried foods. Advent of the refrig- erator will enable the wealthier people to use more perishable and fresher foods.

“In a. few days,” he said, "our action brought word from the old land that warlike action had been deferred. There is no doubt, that the action of Canada in refusing to Phillie into a conflict of which we knew nothing averted action which might have resulted in a .erious war."

At the time, said Mr. King, ihc leader of the Conservative party, Rt. Hon. Arthur Meighen, criticized his stand and said Canada's ansivci- should have been a prompt “ready, aye. ready." Mr. Bennett was now the leader of the Conservative pariy and the country was entitled to know what his answer would be should a similar situation arise.

In his first radio speech Mr. Bennett had accused Mr. King of breaching an antiquated political philosophy, one which was not sult- able to modem conditions. y»

"I am inclined t0 think." said the Liberal Leader, "that he was refer- ring to the old idea that Parliament was the body which should manage the people's affairs and that he was suggesting the time has come when we must take away from the pic's representatives all control over public adairs. That must be what he means because he has been go- ‘ing in the opposite direction to the

old theory."

RELICIOUS

THE BAPTIST CHURCH

At the morning service the Rev. A. C. Vincent spoke from Psalm 119-11, “It is good for me that I have been afllicted." Looking back over the yesterdays, not always have one’s paths been by the still waters, some times there are days of mem- ories and tears. A life devoid 0f troubles, sheltered and ever at peace does not make for power or breadth of sympathies. Some one has said that there are three at- titudes toward trouble: Sui-render. the position of one who dares not start again; Cyniclsm, a protective coloration developed from a warped and sneering view of life, and fin- ally the attitude of a wurflileotis faith shown by the writer of this great Psalm.

Miss Margaret Webster and Miss Claire MacMillan sans very effec- tively "sun of My Soul."

Sunday School met at 2.30 p. m. with an encouraging attendance. The Communion of the Lord's Sup- per was observed at the evening service.

TRINITY UNITED CHURCH

The ceremony of baptism was performed at the morning service yesterday before a large and inter- ested congregatlon. Prof. A. W. Trueman of Mt. Allison University was the soloist and sang "In heav- enly love abiding."

Rev. Hugh Miller has returned from a happy and delightful noli- day and occupied the pulpit at both services. His morning sermon was from the text in Isaiah 53-3. "He is despised and rejected of men," and the reasons why men reject Christ were examined. His was the only life of moral perfection that ever lived, His days were crowded with the most unselfish and love directed service. He is our only hope. i-Ie is our Saviour. Why is he despised and rejected? "Sin is the .ause of it The world Christ condemned has a fascination for us. it attracts, it allures, it captivates and holds us. Christ is rejected because of the cost. We fear what it may cost to have our lives cleaned up. We are afraid we must give up too much and that life will be drab and uninteresting. At _the bottom of all is, fear and then Christ is rejected because of procrastination. It is for eich of us to ascertain the causes relative to ourselves. Christ

is either knocking at the outer door of our lives or some inner ‘cor that walls off part of our lives from Him."

Sunday School has resumed its regular afternoon sessions nd lt is desired that the scholars‘ rttend in large numbers so that the classes may be promptly organized and the school curriculum started without undue delay.

The Sacrament of the Lord's Sup- per will be observed at the morning service next Lord's Day. The pre- paratory service will be held in Heartz Hall on Friday evening at 7.30 o'clock. There will be no mid- week service on Wednesday night.

HOLY REDEEMER CHURCH

Holy Name Sunday was observed at Holy Redeemer Church yester- day. The members cf the Society received Holy communion in a body at the 7.30 o'clock Mass, the attend- ance being exceptionally large.
