Received.

Upwards of 100 cases under the

Farmers Creditors Ararngement Act have been heard and are under con- sideration by the Board of Review in this Province, according to in- formation zeceived from the Board chairman.

The Board has held sessions in

the different parts of the Province most convenient for the farmers and their creditors.

At first it was realized that the

Act was not well understood. The opposition came chiefly from those who were under the impression that the Board was contemplating cut- ting mortgages and iniuring other creditors for the benefit oi' the farmer. The Board has on numerous occasions explained that there was no such intention, and this fact is now generally appreciated.

The Board of Review is made up

of a chairman, one member repre- senting the farmers, and a third member the creditors. At present constituted it consists of Mr. Justice Arsenault, chairman, Mr. E. B. Mac-

Laren, Georgetown, wmenting the farmers. and Mr. . K. Rogers, Charlottetown, representing ‘the creditors.

The Board has met in all cases

with the very best reception. In very many cases the creditors them- selves have offered to the Board a suggestion of settement, and gener- ally the Board has accepted these

'At a Public Meeting to be held in the CAPITOL THEATRE,

suggestions and made proposals ac- cordingly.

Most of the mortgages bear inter-

est at 7 per cent. The Board has considered that this rate is alto- gether too high in view of the state of the money market today. The best bonds do not realize more than from 3 to 4 per cent interest; the banks only pay 2 per cent interest on deposit; and with low prices it is impossible for the farmer to pay such a high rate of interest. Almost invariably the mortgagees have vol- untarily reduced their rate of inter- est to 5 per cent. Many of the

Before an audience which pack- ed St. Margaret’s hall to capacity last night, Hon. H. D. MacLean and Mr. A. F. McQuaid, KC., Con- servative candldates for the First District of King‘s, opened their campaign in brilliant form with an effective analysis of the finan- cial and other issues of the pro- vincial election oontest ' and were received with enthusiastic ap- plause, which increased as the meeting proceeded and the candid- ates warmed up to their subject.

The speakers, in order named,

were the party candidates, Hon. H. D. MacLean. Messrs. H. H. Acorn, A. F. McQuaid and 'P. A. Mclsaac. Mr. Allan Gillis, Clear Springs, presided.

The Government’s record oi'

achievement was first dealt with by Hon. Mr. MacLean. who ans- wered Mr- Lea’s criticism of al- leged extravagance by showing that the additional revenue at the Governments disposal was ex- pended in direct relief, old age pensions and interest on sinking fund to meet the debt incurred under Liberal regime. He showed that the $932,000 increase in debt under the Conservatives was in- ,cured in rebuilding Faloonwood Hospital and Prince of Wales Col- lege, in unemployment relief and education. This debt increase, he pointed out, has been offset by subsidy increase obtained by Prem- ier MacMillan fromV Ottawa, whereas the Lea. Government, with a. debt increase of more than

half a m.illion dollars in their last eight months of power, left a million dollar overdraft at the bank and failed to implement their promlse_to obtain subsidy settle- ment from Ottawa.

(Continued from Page li

Mr. McQuaid in his address re-

viewed the debt of the Province since 1911, comparing the average Conservative increase of $105800 in fifteen years, with the Liberal av- erage increase of $201,000 incurred in their eight years of power. He dealt with the charge of extrava- gance by contrasting the last three years of the Lea administration with the three succeeding Con- servative years, He also corrected a statement made by Mr. Acorn, (prompted by Mr. Reuben Mac- donald. Patriot editor. that me Premier received a salary of $2,000 as Premier, $2.000 as Minister of Public Health, and $1,000 as Min- ister of Education. As Health Min- ister, Mr. McQuaid pointed out, the Premier received only $1,000.

Patriot misstatements 'regarding

the Public Accounts were severely scored by Mr. McQuaid, who also dealt with Faloonwood expendit- \lI‘€S. Showing that the Conserv- atives, in three years, had effected a saving of $103,000 in the oper- ation of that institution over their Liberal predecessors during the same period of time.

Mr. McQuaid also vigorously de-

fended his administration of the Prohibition Act while acting as

Stipendlary Magistrate.

First Que en’s Contest Opens At Irishtown

A strong iniprcssion was left by

the Conservative party standard- bearers for First Queens, Messrs. Thomas Wlgmore and Theophilus Beaton, at the opening campaign meeting at Irlshtown last evening. The hail was well filled, and the order maintained throughout was excellent. The splendid hearing ac- corded the Conservative spokesmen in what is regarded as the strong- est Liberal section of the constitu- ency was hailed as significant of the appreciation of the Governmcnt's unique record of achievement dur- ing yenrs of unprecedented difficul- ties and world depression.

The Liberal candidates, Messrs.

W. F. Allan Stewart and D. N. Mac- Kay, were reinforced by Messrs. Peter Sinclair and John Weeks Murphy. »

of the meeting, a vote of thanks moved by Mr. Wigmore and second- ed by Mr. Stewart.

It was announced that the meet-

ing at French River hall, scheduled for tonight, had been cancelled and the Hope River meeting would be held on July 10, and the Clifton meeting on July 11, and ,not as pre- viously advertised.

Reference was made by both the

Conservative crmdlclntcs to thc scr- vlce rendered the constituency by Hon. W. G. MacKenzie and regret was expressed that prcmure of other business made it ncccssary for Mr. MacKenzie to retire from politics at this time.

Scoring on every point of criticism

raised hy the Opposition as to the Governmeni's record, the Premier launched a smashing counter at- tack, both on the Lea Governmenfs record and on the present Liberal platform, about which Mr. Camp- bell had remained discrecfly silent.

“What could he say about a plat-

fonn that has nothing worthwhile to offer except what this Govern- ment has already put into effect?" challenged Premier MacMillan.

Mr. Joseph J. Arsenault, Tignish,

presided.

meeting, which was hailed by Con- servatives as a triumphant vindi- cation of government polici's, will appear later.

Audience Gasps At Misstatements

Of Mr.

LePage

Liberal Candidate Puts,Both Feet In ItAt CanoeCoveMeeting.Con- servatives Warmly Applauded-.

'I‘he audience which packed

Canoe Cove Hall t`o overflowing last evening did not require the able speeches of Mcmrs. D. F. Bethune and E. A. Currie to con- vince it that the one and a half hour’s speech of Mr. B. W. LePage was little but a burlesque of misrepresentations. inconsistencies were so obvious that at times tit- t/ers of laughter swept over the audience, which was decidedly in favour of the Conservative speak- ers. Time and again the latter were given a rousing applause while Liberal applause was moder- ate in extreme.

Challenged by Mr. Bethune to

show how administration could be maintained at an efficient level with revenue and expenditure meeting, Mr. LePage avoided the issue. Ho went overtime by half an hour. mid Mr. McPhee in the min- utes. remaining to him merely touched the fringes of n few issues.

Mr. William Shaw capably pre-

sitird.

The first speaker, Mr. B. W.

1.c~Pagc, gave with little variation the address which he delivered at Canoe Cove. After discussing fed- eral politics, he expressed the opin- ion that the governments policies ii.-.<1 "horrified" trade. He save the audience some DOIWCHI h|SU01’Y~ There was indignation alz‘21ll1St the Conservatives, he said, and paused for applause. The only demonstra- tion was a lone voice in the back of the hall.

The speaker then proceeded to

interpret the public accounts to his hearers.

The govemmcnt had entered in-

to a contract for road building which would cost the province $350,000 to $400,000. he said. and $40,000 to $75,000 was to be ex- pondcd on the Provincial Building- Thc men on the roads were not working at all, Mr. IePage insist- ed. He had seen fourteen men and two boys behind a machine. he said.

"The contract will be only half

through when We get into power,"

the road project, while the aud- ience laughed.

“The cause of the Prince of

Wales College fire was that there was an incompetent man attend- ing the fumaoe,” Mr. l.»ePage in- formed the audience. “The morn- ing of the fire about 8 o’clock I saw the walls all covered with sleet, and they were as good as the day they were built. They were not hurt one iota,” Mr. LePage re- poned. “The old foimdation was twice as good as the new one." St. Dunstan's Basilica had been built on the old' foundation, he said "The Government fell for what a foreign architect said. and built a building with linoleum and shower

Mr. LePage denied tha; he had

said that the Eichibltlon Associa- tion had received $23,000 from the Govemmeni. for removal of clay from the Exhibition Grounds. but tihey had "received the work," he said. It was “currently reported" that other bills had been paid by the Government for the Exhibi- tion Association.

Mr, LePage contended the ma-

jority of Faloonwood patients weze

boarders who wanted only

to be “nice and comfortable." Only ‘a dozen required special treat- ment.

The proposed building would

take cane of s thousand insane patients, all there were in Can- ada.

ROME, July B-Italy believed

tonight a path from Rome to Ad- dis Ababa was clear.

Official circles said there was

scarcely a possibility of British in- tervention; there is no doubt of France’s friendly neutrality.

Germany is now friendly, they

said, and Russia will be friendly because of France. Japan has growing commercial interests in Ethiopia, but Japan apparently has her hands full with the Chin- ese and Manchoukuoan situations.

There remained only the League

of Nations, of which Benito Musso- lini has no fear. Before that as- sembly Italy does not intend ro remain of the defensive, but will take the offensive with charges that Ethiopia violated the condi- tions under which she was permit- ted to enter and should be reduced to the rank of mandate.

If the League should attempt to

condemn Italy, official circles dis- closed, Il Duce would not have the slightest hesitation about leaving Geneva. Meanwhile war prepar- ations continue.
