Attack llayashi For Refusal To Leave 0ffie

(AP. by Guardian's Special Wire)

TOKYO. Ml? 3-Prcmler Son- illrfl Hayasbl. refusing to resign and reported seeking a compro- mise with political parties that overwhelmed his government at the polls. declared tonight he did not intend to dissolve the newly elected Diet (parliament)

He made this pledge to the privy council and asserted also that the government has no in- tention of revising election laws through an imperial ordinance.

The Premier, supported by the army, conferred with his cabinet prior to an audience with Emperor Hlrohito. His plans were said to include either compromise or com- bat with the political groups. The parties won some 400 of the 466 parliamentary seats in the general election, called when the Diet was dissolved after long disputes be- tween the government and its op- ponents.

Vigorous attacks on Hayashi for his refusal to leave office contin- ued. Masazumi Ando, secretary general oi’ the strong Seiyukal Party, called the Premier a traitor to constitutional ‘government. He demanded that the cabinet resign immediately in the face of what hie termed fair and impartial elec- tons.

Expropriation 0f P.E.l. Park Land llot Gomplcteil

(C.P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

OTTAWA, May 3 — The Prince Edward Island National Park, nine square miles on the northern coast is expected to be deeded to the Dominion soon but it will be months before it ls developed to its full capabilities as a. tourist attraction. Meanwhile, negotiations with the Ncw Brunswick Government are continuing over a. site in that pro- vince for a park. Negotiations op- ened last year but the two gov- ernments have not been able to agree.

Expropriation of land inside the Prince Edward Island park area hns not been completed although the boundaries have been marked. It will include 20 miles of beaches.

Most of Canada's nationalparks, representing an investment of $20,- 000,000 are in the west. A park of 430 square miles was created on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, twp years ago, leaving only Que- bec and New Brunswick without parks. There is no large area in Ontario set aside as a national park although groups of islandsin the St. Lawrence River and Geor- gian Bay are termed national parks. Ontario has several provin- clal parks, particularly in the north.

Under legislation passed a. few years ago, any province may co- operate with the Dominion in es- tablishing a park. The two gov- ernments must agree on a. site which the province must deed to the Dominion free of encumbran- ces. Development of the park is done by the Dominion.

0f Large Entry List GetsUnder Way.

The third annual Y. M. C. A. Hobbies Exhibition was officially opened last night by His Worship Mayor P. W. Turner. Lleut. Col- onel K. S. Rogers, president of the Hobbies Exhibition, presided.

He had spoken before many large gatherings and welcomed delegates of many important bodies to the city but he had never spoken when he experienced a greater feeling of delight or a greater sense of res- ponslbility, Mayor Turner said. The boys and girls who were tak- ing part in the exhibition were future citizens, destined to rc-vit- allze this old city. The greatest asset a nation could have was not great natural resources but its boys and girls. To say that Can- ada had reached the limit of its development was to deny the pio- neering spirit of youth, the speak- er said. The exhibits, a. happy combination of the practical and the cultural, were an example of a. creative pioneering spirit that would make this a great city and Canada a. great nation.

Lieut. Col. Rogers explained that the show was started with the idea of fostering the creative ef- fort in boys and girls and express- ed pleasure that the entrles list set a_ new high mark this year.

Following the official opening, which took place in Queen Square School Hall, Scottish dancing and lpullgic speaking competitions were

There will be no formal military

cssary. 1t appeared more probable that Mussolini and Rcichsfiichrcr Hitler might effect an oral iiiidcr- standing in future conversations!

‘ (u. projccied meeting in Gfiflllllllf.’ ‘ has been rumored for some iinle.)

There is sufficient ngrccmcntfor the present, Editor Virgiiiio Gav indicated in thc usually autho‘ . tive Giornale D'Iiaiin, in lire for- mula:

“Nothing in Europe without Ii- nly and Gerir any. Nothing against Italy and Germany."

Von Neuratli, Mussolini. and his son-in-lawforeign Minisiicr Count Chino, were said to be in accord on these points after today's talks: The League of Nations as pre- sently constituted is useless in en- forcing peace.

Any new Locarno Pact to assure security must follow the old one signed by Britain, France, Ger- many, Italy and Belgium; there must be no separate pacis; there will be no negotiations until the Spanish war is ended.

BERLIN, May 3--iCP-l-lavas)— Germany and Italy are prepared to turn the "Rome-Berlin axis" into a definite military alliance and the first objective will be liquida- tion of the Spanish civil war, the Deutsche Allgcmelne Zcltung stat- ed tonight.
