. With such a fresh supply of hard currency the U. K. would be able to pay a few more of her dollar trade bills and thus sidestep the crisis, for the time being st least.

Any Canadian loan to the U. K. would be over and above the $1.- 50,000,000 Britain began borrowing from Canada in 1948. The last oi this loan now is being used up by the U. K. at the rate of 810.000.0130 e month. All of it is expecteq to be gong by January, 1951.

It else was ‘believed Canada would be asked to speed uP "l! rate of flow eo that the U. K. may set more dollars immediately.

Canada, a source said, still doesn't feel she is in the secure dollar position where she could meet requests for further loans from the non-dollar area.

Politicians Delve Into Reasons for Unsurpassed Liberal Election Victory _'

interchange oi breeding stock," con- cluded Mr. MacDonald.

(By The Canadian Press)

Political strategists delved into the poet-election rubble yesterday in search of the vote-catching key to the resounding Liberal victory at the polls Monday.

At party headquarters and on the liustings, leaders and candid- ates, vanquished and victor alike, Qudied the voting trends across this broad Dominion for clues to the- triumph which sent the Lib- eral Party back into power with the greatest parliamentary maj- ority in Canadian political history.

Meantime, Prime Minister St. Laurent prepared to meet his Cab- inet in Ottawa today to lay plans for the opening - probably in Steptember - of the new 21st Pat'- llament, in which he will command 193 of the M2 seats in the new House of Commons.

The Council likely will give pre- liminary study to its fail legisla- tive program, including ratification oi the spring budget and re-intro- ductlon of much of the legislation left untouched when the 20th Per- liament was dissolved April 30.

The Liberal parliamentary mai- ority is I24, the biggest on Can- ada's political record.

Here is the final party standing after the election:

Liberals. 193; Progressive Con- servatives. 42; C.C.F., l2; Social Credit. l0: Independent, four; In- depsndent-Liberal, one.

That compares with this stand- ing after the 1945 election for a 245-seat House:

Liberals, 118; Progressive Con. servatives, 06; 0.011, 2s; 30,331 Credit, I3; Independents, eight; Independent-Liberals, seven; om. ers, five.

The seat-total in the new House has been increased by 17 to ac- commodate seven members for the new Province of Newfoundland and l0 for constituencies created sime I945.

The Liberals rolled up the big- gest total as well in a popular vote which appeared certain to top an all-time record of 6,000,000 when ell of the tallies are in.

A Cabinet shake-up appeared to be in the political card's.

There still are l4 Benet-e vacan- cies - tho Prime Minister ap- Ilclntad five new Senators ‘just be- fore the election - and some of them may go to members of the victorious Cabinet. Not. one of the 19 Cabinet Ministers failed to win l" Milndayks voting.

Ministeramentloned before dis- solution in political circles as pos- sible Senate appointees included Fisheries Minister Mayhew, Posi- msstcr - General Bertrand. Re- sources Minister Gibson and Sol. tailor-General Jean.

On ‘Ihieeday evening ell Provin- eial Grand Masters and Provincial Grand Mistresses from the Atlantic to the Pacific were the honored guests of the M W.. Grand Master R. Henry Small at a banquet. in the Windsor Hotel.

Fine ileciiai _Ai Kirli tut

Last night in 5t. James Church hell, Miss houiae 0oz. pianist, and Miss Geelyne Craig, soprano, gave e. most delightful recital.

The programme they offered their appreciative audience was as follows:

Pastorale — Domenico Scarlatti.

Allemende; Csvotte from French Suite No. 5; Gigue — J3.

Bach. Three Chorale Preludes: (l) Mortlfy Us By Thy Grace; (2)

Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring; (3) 308.118 Gilli-st, the Hon of Cod - J8. Bach. (Miss Cox) Amarylli — Caccini (16th cent.) Alleluia -— Mozart. (Miss Craig)

Elude. 0D. 10, No. 8; Etude, Op. 5. N0- 1; Funnels-Impromptu, 0p. N - Frederic Chopin.

(Miss Cox)

The Cloths of Heaven - Thomas Dunhill.

Gathering Daffodils (Old English Songi- arr. Arthur Somervell.

I Wonder as I Wander - Appel- achian Carol, err. by John Jacob Niles.

(Miss Craig)

5115880119. N0. 1 — Claude De- buasy.

Polka (from Ballet “L'Age D'Or) —Dmitri Shostakovich.

Malsguena — Ernesto Lecuona.

(Miss Cox)

In addition, in response to very hearty and long continued up. Dlause, Miss Cox played Chopin's c Sharp Minor Waltz, and Debussyb "The Galliwors Cake Walk," While Miss Craig sens "The Blackbird Song" by Cyril Scott. .

The varied and most interestin nature of the programme leaips to notice at once. Nothing is here oi the rather heckneyed battle horses of the average recitalist. And yet, while pleasing. there is nothing meretricious or merely showy about it. Miss Cox wisely chose her major numbers from the magnifi- cent oompositiohs of Bach and Chopin, while the songs of Miss CF81! were of a no less authentic character.

A few words may be said here of Miss Cox's modern groups. De- buseyfls “Arebesque" is one of his early compositions. quite in the romantic style end much skin to Chopin and Field. while "The Gal- liwosb Cake Walk" (an example of his later work) abound; in what are known as “modern" harmon- ies and staccato chords brought in with somewhat startling effect. It and Shostakovichs "Polka." are, in fact, very much alike.

Such works, of course, are in s

light and humorous vein, and one feels that their composers intend- ed them not to be taken too seri- ously. Both Miss Craig and Miss Cox rendered their selections with that technical finish and artistic insight which Charlottetown aud- iences have come to expect of them. ‘Miss Craig wee splendidly ec- compenied on the piano by Miss Lillian Maclfensie, organist of 8t. James.

At the close of the programme Mr. Ewen Nicholson on behalf of the Charlottetown Male Chorus, reorganized lest winter, presented Miss Cox, who le their accompanist (and we may note, in passing, g former pupil oi Miss Mackenzie) with n. fitting tribute of their great appreciation of her services on their behalf.

President's Remarks

Following is the text of the presiddnt, Mrs. Henderson's re- port:

It is with sincere pleaseure I welcome you to this the 30th sn- nual meeting of our Auxiliary.

On Friday, June 27th, 1919. a committee of Charlottetownladies held a meeting to plan for the raising of funds in order to assist in the building of a new Protest- ant Orphanage. At that meeting it was resolved: "The committee here assembled be named the Ladies Auxiliary of the Prince Edward Island Protestant Orph- image."

Today, thirty yesre later, I wish to review very briefly a few of the high-lights.

Following the first meeting branch Auxiliaries were organized and throughout the Province con- certs. recitals, rummage sales, teas, picnics. etc., were held with such amazing success that at a meetin of the Orphanage Trustee Board, October 9th. i921, the following resolution was unanimously pass- nd: "In consideration oi the out- standing aseiiance rendered by the Ladies Auxiliary in connec- tion with the erection of the new Orphanage, resolved that after its completion there shell be placed in the West Wing a tablet so that future generations may be re- minded oi their noble work and that the inscription be: (This Wing was erected by the Ladies Auxiliary of the Protestant Orph- enagc.)
