mt, which was held at Iris, the up‘ was filled with an attentive audience. Mr. MacLean, the Con- gi-vative candidate, it was evident made a most favorable impression on those present. He met with an qlthusiastlc reception. and deliver- 9d his address in a most forceful mlliflfil‘, and with great clarity, de- llvgrirlg and emphasizing each point of his address in an interesting and logical manner. It was decided that each candidate should have forty- ilve minutes at his disposal. to do with as he saw fit, either by speak- ing himself, or calling on his sup- porters.

Mr. R. A. MacBeth presided.

The speakers in succession were: Mr. Callurn Bruce. the Liberal candidate. who spoke but briefly, commenting on the unusual three cornered contest which was now on in the district. and praised the roads which. in his opinion. were in llrst class shape.

Mr. MacLcan the Conservative candidate. it could easily be seen, after charging the Saunders govern- ment with having broken every sin- gle pledge they had made, went on to criticize their road policy in par- ticular. The roads were never so bad as they were today. ‘He then proceeded to score their extrava- gance. pointing out the enormous sums they had expended in their road programme, all oi which must ultimately come out oi the pockets of the tax-payers. -

Mr. W. E. Bentley the prohibition- ist candidate next-tool! the floor. He spent all of his time in be-rating the Saunders Government for its imi- enforcement oi prohibition, charging them in this connection with a gross violation of their pre- election promises. He said that, should such enforcement continue. the prohibition act would soon be a 0101s of the past.

In particular. he stated that iifiuor had been openly drunk at a banquet held in a large hotel in the province; that he had laid in- formation. but. that no prosecution had resulted.

Mr. Larabeo made a brief speech in the course oi which he said that M“ Bentley had been interested‘ in ihe Temperance Alliance, so long as it had any funds. But now that

Naval C050 Sentenc.

es Iieut. Command- er Beatty to be Dis- missed from Ship and Severely Repri- manded.

LONDON. Aug. 0. -- A naval court martial held at. Portsmouth Saturday found the charge proved against Lleut. Commander T. R. Beatty» of giving a wrong course for the British cruiser Dauntless which grounded when entering the Hali- fax harbor on July 2. After l5 minutes oi deliberation the court sentenced Beatty to dismissal from his ship and severely reprimanded.

The prosecution alleged the ac-

cused officer had iailed to take‘

reasonable care in checking his chart considering the weather con- ditions for entering Halifax harbor and in? not keeping the usual track laid down or alternatively in not informing Captain MacPherson that the course being followed would take his ship towards Thrum Cap shoal.

Lieut. Commander Beatty ad- mitted his error in giving his course but contended the mishap was caused by his scrupulous care ln trying to identify a buoy. The Thrum Cap shoal, he said, was in- correctly chartered, which caused the ship's grounding.

The British light cruiser Daunt- lcss of the North American and West Atlantic squadron, grounded at the entrance to Halifax harbor on July 2, while coming into port during a dense fog. She was floated a week later by the Halifax ship- yards wrecklng crew and placed in drydock here where repairs are now being made.

British youth Given Great Welcome In.‘

' Moncton and Saint} John-Halifax N exti Stop.

(Special to the Guardian) ,,

MONCTON, N. B., August 8'. — it. would seem that nature itself had purposely joined with Canadians to give a royal welcome to the young ambassadors of Empire. for thc brightest sunlight is attending their triumphant tour through New Brunswick, which province they cn- tcred this morning.

When the Maritime Express to‘ which the special cars occupied by thc fifty enthustlastic young Brit- lshers and their companions arrived at Moncton at noon yesterday they were greeted by such a welcome as made one think for a time that the whole population of the city had turned out to do honor. Fuags were fiylng in their honor and they were escorted to the Golf Club House sit- uated on a commanding hill giving a magnificent view oi thc Petltcod- lac Valley, Moncton, and the waves of hills and rolling country beyond, by a very large number of represen- tative citizens of the city.

The Club House was a mass of bunting and flags. After a delight- fful luncheon the party was formal- ly welcomed to Moncton by J. Fred (Edgett, chairman of the school ‘board. Mayor Budd Taylor, Senator Robinson, Hon. E. A. ellly. repre- Isented thc provincial government of New Brunswick.

‘You have come to us as ambass- adors of cmplrc. you will return to Great Britain as ambassadors for Canada" declared one of thc speak- scrs who evidently had at once been impressed with thc keenness of mind of thc bright-eyed inquiring youth of the Motherland that rop- rcsenting the alleged press of Great Britain are tollring thc Dominion of Canada guests of the Canadian Na- tional Railway. Gcncral manager of Atlantic Region W. U. Appleton, one of the speakers at tllc luncheon gave a few striking figures to show the immensity of the National sys- tem, and the vastness of Canada. Speaking of its twenty two thous- and miles of track. its one hundred thousand employees and its cnorm- ous equipment that would enable the train to be made up extending from Moncton to Toronto.

Hon. J. A. Murray urged the young people to take back with‘ them the fact that New Brunswick and the Maritime Provinces afford- ed Just as finempportunities for the young man with ambition and en- ergy as any other part oi Canada. Hon. C. W. Robinson impressed up- on them that they were visiting Canada at a time when she was on

In the few hours the young Britons had been there they- had won the hearts of all and on every hand were heard deep ex- pressions oi regret that they could not remain longer. As the special train bearing them to Saint John pulled out of the station loud cheers

Stanley Baldwin Pledges Party Not to Introduce Pro- tection as an Issue in the Coming Gen- eral Election.

(Special to the Guardian)

LONDON, Aug. 6.—Stanley Bald- win Saturday pledged his party not to introduce protection as an issue in the coming general election. The prime minister made this promise in a letter which he sent to Com- mander Bolton M. Eyres-Monsell. chief government whip. The letter explained itself as having been written because of "some confus- ion of thought among unionist members, arising from condensed reports of a certain speech.”

The epistle stated the govern- ment's attitude on "safe guarding duties" and on ratirlg, or tax relief. It said: "Safeguarding has been the law of the land since it was estab- lished as a principle by Lloyd Geor- e‘s government in 1921. It was the policy we adopted at the last gener- al election and it will be continued.

“We pledged and shall continue to be pledged, not to introduce pro- tectlon. We pledged and shall con- tinue to be pledged not to impose any taxes on food."

The prime minister wrote that the boldness and originality of the government's tax plan for perman- ent relief of productive industries. has been "no doubt the reason why opposition parties have been trying m drag 1n a. protectionist rcd_her- ring, in the vain hope of causinS dissension in a. party whose unity and enthusiasm have aroused their envious admiration.”

Pleads for the Devel- opment of the Steel and Coal Industries 0f the Province of Nova Scotia.

SYDNEY, N. 3., Aug. 6.—"Is Can- ada to be free economically. or is to be dependent on another nation? Are we to be free or are we to be slaves?"

In such words, Hon. R. B. Ben- nett, speaking here Saturday night in the heart of the steel industry of Nova Scotia, pleaded for the devel- opment of the steel and coal indust- ries of this province. The Conserva- tive leader repeated his pledge that his party would steadfastly support the recommendations in the Dun-

can report of 1926 affecting both the steel and coal industries. "Here" he declared, "within the

shadow of that great steel industry, I can only say that it ls my pro- found conviction that these recom- mandations should be carried out",, and ii the government does not sec: that they are put into effect, we, of, the Conservative party, will sec that they are implemented after the cl- ectoratc have swept them from of- fice. After all, your steel industry of Cape Breton and of Nova Scotia, are

Scotia. industries but they arc na- tional industries."

Steel and iron products imported from the United States for the year ended May 31 last. Mr. Bennett pro- ceeded, totalled $270,000,000 in value.

.an increase of $32,000,000 over the

preceding year. “We are not content to see this plant at Sydney." he ex- claimed “produce steel products bllt we went across to Pittsburg and bought $32,000,000 more goods in the last twelve months than in the pre- vious year."

Hon. Gordon H. Harrington. Min- ister of Mines for Nova Scotla. said the Conservative party in Federal and Provincial politics, was a party of principle. Mr. Bennett, he con- tinlied was sympathetic towards No- va Scotia. especially in respect to thc steel and coal industries.
