British North America were paid yesterday at s. largely attended function at Holland. Cove. headquarters of Captain Holland in 1764, when he began his survey operations here.

1Thc occasion was the unveiling of an imposing cairn. pyramidic in form, constructed‘ of mince Ed- ward Island cobblestone. with a bronze tablet suitably inscribed. to commemonte the labours oi Civp- tain Holland, in this Province.

His Honour Lieutenant Governor Delilah presided, the chief speak- er being Proi. D. 0. Harvey. M. A.. F. R. S. C., of the Historic Bites and Monuments Board of Canada. the full text. of whose address appears elsewhere in today's Guardian.

Rain yesterday afternoon neces- sitated the holding of the. func- tion in the dining pavilion of the Holland Cove summer resorts, kind- ly placed at the disposal of the gathering by Mr. B. L. Cotton.-

Lt. Governor DeBlois

"I would remind you" said the Lieutenant Governor in his open- ing remarks, "that we are gathered here this afternoon to commemor- ate the first survey carried on iri this continent by the British Gov- lernrrient under the able command ' of Captain Holland. in whose mem- 'ory this cairn is being unveiled. It is most fitting that we should hon- our the memory c'i one who per- formed such faithful and disting- uished services to his country. who can tell the new thoughts or am- bitions that may be aroused in the hearts of some of our people by the erection of this memorial? May I express the hope that allwh-a sec the cairn and who read about its dedication, may h‘: moved to make greater and nobler efforts to ren- der services 0i value to their coun- try and Empire, so that we of this generation may pass down to pos- terity s. record of service. not less than that rendered by those who have gone before; but may it be greater and richer because of the noble example handed down to us by the greet men of past ages."

I n Detail C. Harvey

Following is the full text of the address delivered yesterday by Prof. D. C. Harvey, M.A,, of the Historic Sites and Monuments Board. at the unveiling ceremony at Holland Cove:

Your Honour, Ladies and Gentle- men:

The story of this memorial takes us far back into the 18th century and deep into the mazes of British imperial policy. By the Treaty of Paris (i763) the British were con- firmed in possession of St. Johns Island which they had held by a garrison at Fort Amherst since the fall of Lcuisbourg in 1758.

As this treaty made Great Brit- ain the dominant power in North America, she found herself in possession of vast territory, with great resources, necessitating the formulation of policies of far- reaching importance. At this period of her history the Mercantilists were in control of government, favoring a policy of economic self- sufficiency. Trade and commerce, fish and fur, hemp and naval stores, sugar and cotton were their chief objects of attention; and, al- though therc had been controversy r- ‘ themselves as to whether the colonization of the tropical islands of America or the contin- ental territories would be more valuable to traders and manufac- turers, there was no tendency nt- thls time to regard the colonies as a new home for British emigrants or the colonists as Britons beyond the seas, This was duc in part to the prevailing theory of empire but also to the fact that Great Britain had not yet become over- populatcd. The retention of Can- ada with its potential markets for woollens rather than Guadeloupe with its sugar plantations did not, therefore, mean a new theory of empire but merely a change of emphasis. It meant that henceforth greater stress was to bc "laid on colonies as markets for British produce than on colonies as sources of supply"; but commercial ad- vantages were still to be the chief conoem, and how those advantages might be rendered most permanent and secure to "His Majesty's trad- ing subjects."

Trade Board's Recommendation

In conaidfing the organization of the new territories acquired by the Treaty of Paris, the Board of Trade recommended that all the land "from Cape Roziere along the Gulph of 5t. Lawrence with the whole Coast of the Bay of Fundy," together with "the Islands of Cape Breton and 8t. John's." be annexed to the government of Nova Scotia: and that the utmost a‘ " be given immediately to the speedy settlement of this tract oi country. having particular regard to the of- ficers snd soldiers who had served in the late war. Apart from these officers and privates whom they wished to reward and in provide with employment, they looked for settlers, not to Great Britain. but to. "emigrants from Europe." and to "the Over-flowing of Your Maj- IIW’! Illlitlnt Colonies," as pre- vious to the late war these colonies had seemed overstocked, with in-

Colonies, whose

for their numbers, but. chiefly by the monopoly or lands in the hands of land jobbers from the extrava- glint and injudicious grants made by some of Your Majesty's Gov- ernors, whereby a. great many cf Your Majcsty’s industrious subjects were either forced into manufac. tures being excluded from planting by the high price of land (a. situ- ation which they otherwise would have preferred) or forced to emi- grate to the other side of the mountains."

This report of the Board of Trade led to the Royal Proclam- ation of October 7, 1763, which inter alia annexed St- John's Is- land to Nova Scotla, and offered moderate grants of land. varying from 5.000 acres to 50, in all prov- inccs on the contient of North America, to such reduced officers, private soldiers, and officers of the navy as had served in America. in the late war.

Defence Discussed

Some of the ministers who met yesterday in LOIldOll are members of the Imperial Defence Commit- tee. The Associated Press said the meeting had asked a tightening-up cf British sea. land and air strength in the Mediterranean and Africa. colonies, asserting the Ad- miralty had declared it was no longer able to guarantee British control of the Mediterranean.

It was known that the adequacy of British forces was discussed ai- Thursdays cabinet meeting.

Other sourws-I-Iavas and Reut- ers-decliired the meeting was for the purpose of threshing out de- tails in the wake oi.’ the decisions of the full cabinet. A note has been sent to Paris presumably out- lining the British views. The gov- ernment has not yet given up hope of a peaceful solution. but will remain in the background pending renewed Franco-Italian diplomatic exchanges.

Makes Offer

From Addis Ababa, Emperor Haile Selassie flew another trial balloon, an offer to sell Italy Aussa province, next £0 Eritrea. He also issued further arning about safe- guarding forelgners, cleared unde- slrables from the streets and or- dered a watch on the Italian Con- sulates.

Rome had no official word of the Emperor's offer but a spokesman made clear it would not be enough. When Ethiopia offered in cede ter- ritory in the south some weeks ago Italy rejected it flatly and termed the land a "strip of desert." Rome was much more interested in the gigantic army manoeuvres in which 500.000 men will be engaged Sunday, mostly on the Austrian

frontier. LONDON’. Aug. 23—(C. lZ-Idsvas) -Britain re-opened discussion

with France tonight in a last-hour effort to avert an Italian-Ethiop- ian war and at the same time pre- pared to take precautionary meas- ures in its colonies should this final peace effort fail.

A surprise caucus of several min- istcrs in the cabinet took place at Downing Street today presided over by acting Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald. It became clear that the government has far from given up hope, and contem- plates a definite series ‘of peace steps before asking for the most extreme measures possible in the League of Nations-milltary, econ- omic and financial sanctions.
