Ml. BATTENBURY REPLIES

Expressing deep appreciation, on behalf oi himself and Mrs. Batten- lrury, of the compliments tendered. Mr. Rattcnbury replied that the occasion took him completely by surprise. While he had done what he could to promote the interests of thePrcvince, he felt that there were ‘other members oi the Board who also had done much in this re- spect. As a. former member of the Railway Board he could say that we have in Sir Henry ‘Thornton a man who is deeply interested in this Province and in our transpor- tation roblems particularly, l-ic also spoke in ‘the highest terms of the Vice Presidents of the Canad- ian National Railways and of the executive of the Atlantic Region. ‘The year 1005, Mr. Rattenbury said, was a turning point in the history oi our transportation prob-

As was to be expected our Board felt honored, and justly so. Your appointment, and the extra. duties breated thereby did not in any degree detract from your in- terest in our organization, as your ‘regular attendance at the meetings of the Board, and the Council will show.

Some oi us may have felt at times during your term oi office. especially when we were prone to criticize some of the actions of the Railway management, that your explanation of their actions, and your effort at a more conciliatory attitude on our W". W“ indiclllnk a gradual change oi heart on your part; but looking back over these discussions we cannot but feel now. that your viewpoint was the correct one. and again demonstrated your wisdom, foresight and good luds- merit.

Mr. Clark also lnstanccd increas- ed deposits, which are higher ‘today than for any month since November, 1029. “That in itseli,” be said, "is significant and of vital in- terest to the people oi Canada.

"I could go on giving you various other unmistakable evidences, he dc clued; "but perhaps those will in- dicate suiilciently that prosperity is br-nnd to return to Canada.

In fact the Maritime Provinces are the most fortunate people in Can- ada today. But let us remember that what concerns the Western Provinces concerns us also. as Can- adians. Let us be moderate in the days of prosperity, when they coma Illin; let us be fair to our neigh- boring Provinces as well as to our- selves."

-English Market

(Special to The Guardian)

TORONTO, July 'i.--Appie grow- ers oi Ontario expect to capture the English market this season, when B00 carloads oi apples, the largest shipment ever exported overseas, will be sent to the "old country," it was announced yesterday by Hon. T. L. Kennedy, Minister of Agriculture.

Everything favors Ontario growers in their bid for a place in the over- seas fleld, Col Kennedy declared. In the first place the English apple crop is light and the crop from Vir- ginia, Ontario's chief competitor, will be far from heavy this year and will probably be below normal.

"Ontario apples are much in dc- mand in England," said Col. Ken- nedy. "The applc export trade in the Province is becoming standard- ized. We have worked out a. brand to be placed on every box oi apples that is handled by the Central Packers Association. It is the “Big Oh" brand and. every apple in a box bearing this brand is guaranteed to be in perfect condition. Independ- ent growers will not be allowed to use this brand, but as the majority oi growers are either members of the Association or will be shortly,

Your fellow ~members of the Charlottetown Board oi ‘Irade feel that this is, perhaps, an opportune time to convey to you their heart. felt appreciation oi your very faith- ful, diligent, efficient, and best of all successful, work while you oc- cupied the position of Director cf the Canadian National Railways.

For almost forty years you have been a membc oi our Board, in fact very few of our members hold an equal record for length oi serv- ice. Thc fact that you have been elected a Life Member oi the Coun- cil of ‘the Board speaks for itself as to the 11.1w: oi the Board regard- ing the wisdom of assuring to the

Prom that day until the assurance was given that the boat would be pro- vided, you did not cease to press this matter before your colleagues on the Board.

Time is too short to itemize the lengthy list of matters considered and, handled by _you to wlch we might refer, and suffice it to say, that we. thank you most sincerely for all you have done. It is our sin- cere wish that You. may b6 I101‘ many years spared to take your place at our meetings, and help to s. wise decision the many matters that will enzlsc our attention. Now that you have retired from the po- sition oi Director oi the Canadian National Railways, you will be able to give still more oi your thought to our own problems. and we can assure you that your counsel will help the Board in reaching the proper decisions.

In closing. we would express to you. and to Mrs. Rattenbury, whom we are glad to welcome to our gathering this evening, the wish of each, and every member of the Board. that you may both be spar- ed for many years to enjoy each othei-‘s company. the good health that has been yours, and be of con- tinued help to our City and Prov- incc.

A toast to Mr. and Mrs. Clark was proposed by Mr. S. A. Mac- Donald, President oi the Associat- ed Board oi Trade, seconded by Mr. B. I... Cotton, past president oi the Charlottetown Board,

Mr. MacDonald stressed the im-

portant qualifications oi Mr. Clark for his responsible position, not least oi which was the faot- that he is a Maritimer by birth and is keenly interested in the welfare of these provinces by the sea. His wide experience as ‘Prado Com. missloner for Canada during the war and his important trade vis- itations to foreign countries par- ticulurlv fitted him for the duties of Secretary of the Canadian Cham- ber oi Commerce. Surprise was expressed by Mr. Cotton at the vast activities which Mr. Clark has been able ‘.0 zlowd into the past iew years.
