Address

"War threatens in Europe. when will the coniiagration be ignited by a tiny spark? Italy today is rattling sabres. Will thc situation lead t0 another world struggle? our news-

per will give you thc latest de- velopments hourly. Not a minulo is lost in news transmission. The world is one big news-field today. No longer are we wrapped up in our local community." declared Ralph Morton. Charlottetown representa- tive of the Canadian Press in speak- ing at Rotary Club luncheon yes- teniay.

Ho outlined to Rotarians “how news is gathered up from the four comers of the world to give a nia- wry oi today. The speaker told of the development of newspapers from the time oi the invention of print- ing, outlining the contributions made by Walters oi the Times, Reu- ter, Northclifie, Pulitzer and Beaver- brook.

"Did you ever stop to think," the speaker asked "how much you de- pend on newspa, uuu spondents for an accurate picture oi this ever- changing world."

Then he outlined the modern sys- tems of news dissemination. The au- tomatlo teletypes that never stop printing, transmlsison of pictures by wire, and coverage of important ev- cnts by a network of international communications.

"Ramsay MacDonald resig n s . Roosevelt outlines a new industrial code for our 120,000,000 neishbcrs Ottawa-House prorcgues. Election inevitable in the early autumn.

"so the new; sputiers out. This is a fast-moving, ever-changing world. Two thousand men march on Ct- tawa. Blood runs in the street-s 0f Regina. Police battle mobs.

‘Can you say that thclc Event! d0 not affect every one of us? We arc no longer citizens oi Charlottetown or Prince Edward Island but citizens of the amid, and we depend on newspaper-men everywhere to give us an accurate, dependable picture of development," Mr. Morton conclud- ed.

Past President G. i". I-lutcheson was chairman.

The guests were Mr. Kenneth Leslie of Halifax, and Mayor Knox oi Montreal. The former read two poems from a book which he rec- ently published entitled "Lowlands Low." the first poem being dedica- ted to his father, who-was drovmed a number of years ago. Mr. Leslie, in commenting on Mr. Mortons ed- dress, said that he would like t0 lcc newspapers publish more poetry. and made reference to the Cork Ex- aminer which regularly publishes a

page oi poems. IN MEMORIAM

Mr. Wigmore said. These ex- tra expenditures, he showed, were apart altogether from the rebuilding of Prince oi Wales College and 111g}- conwocd Hospital. g

Emphasis was placed on the value from the farmers’ standpoint, 0g the Governments road-making policy

was tendered to Miss Hazel Corbett at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Rod MacDonald, Scuthport, lot 48, on Friday evening, June 28th, by the neighbors and friends in view oi her approaching marriage.

both on main and secondary roads,

"I believe that all roads, in time, leading to market centres will be hardsurfaced. The cheaper type of asphalt road with which the Gov- ernment has been experimenting W111 enable that to be done. This will mean a great improvement from the transportation standpoint," Mr, Wigmore pointed out.

He dealt also with the Govern- ment's success in obtaining Carnegig grants for educational and library PUIDOSQS. and a federal subsidy in- crease oi $150,000 per annum.

MR. D. N. MACKAY

The present Government, charged Mr. MacKay, the first Liberal speak- 91‘. had obtained oiiioe as rigid ec- onomists, and had "failed, and fail- ed grievously." Prince of Wales $011630. he conceded. was "a splen- did building" but more economy should have been used in building it, and the same applied to Falcon- wood- Hospital.

"Why did the Government issue $25,000,000 in bonds and then un- other hundred millions without cal- ling for tenders?" the Liberal can- dldate asked.

He liked driving over the Govern- ment's new hardsurfaced highway, and it was very convenient for him as a means oi getting into char. lotietown, but he objected to the 0061i. "In the same way, he approv- ed oi the Carnegie library grants but objected to paying for the libr- ary after the grants were exhausted.

Objection was also taken by Mr. MacKay m the cost of the Health and Education Departments, and to the number oi Mounted Police in the Province. Laws against drunken driving. he said, should be more rigidly enforced. School books should be cheaper and more help should be given the farmer and fishermen.

MR. THEOPHILUS BEATON

"We hear much about Liberal promises but we know what they did before and we know that in place oi economy they practised extravag- ance," said Mr. Theo. Beaton. "We know that their highway policy was the building of the McIntyre high- way at a. cost of $28,000 a mi1e-- which is practically twice the cost per mile cf the trans-Canada high- way, which they condemn as an ex- travagancei"

Mr. Beaton then reviewed briefly the work achieved by the MacMillan Government, and spoke of the high- ly optimistic feeling prevailing among Conservatives throughout the country.

ted as amember of thc present Gov- ernment. Owins to negligence the Government lost $10,000 insurance on the old Prince of Wales College, he claimed.

Negligence, he suggested, was m.

nsibie for the fires both at Fal- conwood Hospital and Prince or Wales College.

He criticised the incoming Con- servative Government for having scrallwd err-Premier Leo's cs.r and uurchlsed snot-her: and also criticis- ed Premier MacMiilan for disposing of the latter car for $1,000, '11,; Government, he said, had- failed to keep its election pledges regarding rigid economy and no increase in taxation. The fire insurance com- panies, he said, had to increase their rates "because the Government had raised their taxes 20 per sent," There had, he claimed, been no re. ductlon in school book prices under this Government. He criticised also tho administration's road mainten- ance policy.

MB. WIGMOHE REPLIES

Mr, Wigmore, who was given a. portion of his colleague, Mr. Beg. ton's time, in a forceful address at the close replied to Liberal charges oi broken election pledges.

Failure on the part of the late Bell Government to renew the eon- lflfl nesotiated by the Mathiescn

school books was largely responsible ior the difficulty subsequently ex. perlenced in this connection, Mr. Wigmore showed.

Astatement by one oi the Liberal candidates. Mr. Stewart, um no tenders had been called for the Government's bond issue in 1932, was flatly denied by Mr. Wigmore, who Pointed out that the Govern- ment had asked for bids but had been unable to obtain a firm offer.

If the laic Government had not tried to conceal the true state oi its bank borrowings in m1 there would be no need oi the bond issues being made," he added,

Mr. Stewart: ‘That is not correct."

Mr. Wigmore: “We have the ad- mission of the Opposition Leader to that effect." .

Mr. John Weeks Murphy spoke in support o! the Liberal candidates, a.- did also Mr. Peter Sinclair, federal Liberal candidate. _ ,

seeding under tremendous press- ure. Two trunk lines down to the Ethiopian border will be ready by September.

The Giornale d'ltalia renewed accusations that Britain is fur- nishing Ethiopia. with war mater- ials and is mobilizing troops on the Ethiopian border.

House Asks Information

LONDON, July 8-A reassertion that the responsibility for prevent- ing an Italo-Ethiopian war is col- lective and not an individual one was made to the House oi Com- mons today by Sir Samuel lloare, Foreign Secretary.

Opposition members badgered him for infonnation in a. renewal oi attacks on Britain's recent offer to Mussolini to avert fighting, by giving Ethiopia. a port

Frankly conceding he was unable to say under what conditions Italy is prepared to conclude a settle- ment with Ethiopia, Sir Samuel ai- so admitted he was unable to make a. statement on the government's position until Thursday.

His attitude was interpreted as meaning Britain has almost given up hope that France would step in and help shoulder the League of Nations‘ responsibilities. Other quarters said Britain still declines to accept the inevitability of an Itaio-Ethiopian war and is active- ly engaged in negotiations with France in an effort to find a com- promise.

Oificials refrained from com- ment on Washington's refusal to invoke the Briand-Kellogg treaty at L,hicpia's request.

Despite United States recom- mendatlon for withdrawal of na- tionals from Ethiopia, the govern- ment here apparently does not re- gard the situation as critical enough to take similar action. It was pointed out the bulk of the United States residents are scat- tered in the up country, while most Britons are concentrated in Addis Ababa and could be with- drawn quickly if necessary.

PREDICTS COLLAPSE OF CONCILIATION COMMISSION

SCHEVENINGEN, The Nether- lands, July 8—Prediction was made freely tonight that the conciliation commission meeting here in an ef- fort to settle the Italo-Ethiopia. dispute would collapse tomorrow.

Its end was foreseen in the re- fusal oi the Italian members to hear witnesses for Ethiopia.

At today's meeting an effort to break the deadlock beglm yester- day ended in failure. It was re- ported that an angry scene devel- oped when Professor Jeae, legal ad- visor to the Ethiopian government, declared that Ualual, where the first major frontier clash occurred, was Ethiopian territory.

The Italian members P7015991! registered a protest, insisting that the commission was , ud to consider curly the causes of the in- cidents, not the delimitation of the frontier. They refused to hear fur- ther evidence from Professor Jere, although he continued to expound his views.

RED CROSS SERVICES MAY BE

LONDON, July ii-The merciful ministration: of the Red Cross may be withheld from Ethiopia in call of war with Italy because Emperor Hails Selassie has so far been un- able to give his word that his soldiers will not mutilate captives,

The $150,000 armuai subddy re- ceived by the Maoidillan Govern- ment from Ottawa, he said "was not worth talking about.”

MR. CUBBIE

Mr. E. A. Currie in opening re- nurked that it would take an ex- pert to untangle Mir. IoPageu figures. The Liberals had left their political house in wretched order. They had not refunded their debt, not allowing the peo- ple to know the condition into which they had permitted the province to drift.

When the King Government had left power there had been 200.000 people starving in Canada and Mr. Bennett had to call a special session 0o deal with unemploy- ment. ,

Mr. Currie dealt with the bene- fits accruing to Canada as a re- sult of the Empire Trade Agree- ments. msde possible by Premier Bennett. He weng into the history of the financial situation, for which the Liberal negligence in failing to refund the overdrafl was largely responsible.

Mr. LePagels. sta/tement that the ayslu-m was to be built big en- ough to accommodate all the in- sane patients in Canada was an insult to his hearers, stated Mr. Clinic.

Mr. Currie then dealt with Mr. LePageb misstatement regarding the removal of clay from -the Ex- hibition Grounds. The $23,000 was a grant from the Dominion Gov- ernment. The ciay was provided by the Exhibition Asociation free of charge, and, on removal, was placed on government pnoperty.

When he had hea-rd the Liberal missionemerts he had been fired by indignation, Mr. Currie declar- ed .

As regard the Prince of Wales

College any person who would rebuild the college on the old foundation and ruins would be

like unto the man who had built his house on the sand. He him- self was pround of the fine new building. Every person who had a relative who pemed through the college halls should feel the same impulse of pride.

During the las‘, four years Premier MaoMillan had received a million dollars from Ottawa for this Province. The Liberals had received not a cent. Where was the interest, of Mackenzie King in -Prince Edward Island, he asked. The reason ho would not listen to Premier Saunders was that there were Conservative Premiers in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
