' IIJQDLITICAL FORUM JLIBEBAL NOMINATIONS

six, .- The Liberals apparently M-gs-unning true to form as evid- enqgd by the ditching of Dan Mac- 35. yesterday in Murray Harbour district. He has been their repre- sentative for the last couple of years nlld why he still could not qualify is something probably known only in me Liberal machine.

The same thing was evident in 1941 when Morley Bell of Summer- sid'e',' a party stalwart for many will-s, was given the same treat- ment. It seems to me that a re- placement such as this only goes to snow that the Government is scar- ed of its , sltion with the public. This I think is self evident fronl il1e,deliberate attempt to forestall me people from getting a true pic- lure.

calling an election at this time and,without duo notice is nothing but a trick to prevent citirene frolll having a chance to vote on the is- sues of the day. Why didn't they give us a chance to find out what has been going on? ,

Italian Farm labor May Be Aiioiied To P.E.I.

Immigrant farm laborers from Italy may come to this Province to make good the increasing dcmarl” for help reported from Island farms.

Ottawa authorities have made it known to the Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture that Italian laborers are coming to Canada. and lhat some might be alioted to the island. if Island farmers are inter- rstcd in obtaining them. About five hundred Italian farm helpers were placed in the Central Provinces last year, and more are going there this spring.

The National Employment offices in Charlottetown and Summereide l'PpOrL having many unfilled orders for farm help on hand. and the number is growing each week. The offices report little headway in fill- ing the farmer's need despite ad- vertisements placed in the local press. There are many people sen- snnslly out of work but no expor- mllced farm laborers. and inexper- I-nced term labor is of little use on a farm even if acceptable to farm -lltners.

Chief among the reasons for the farm labor shortage is the steady drift of young farm-raised men to defence work or better paid jobs in other provillces of Canada. The movement seemingly is not one of large contingents but a continuing lrickle which has gone on since last .ultumn and throughout the winter and spring.

several months ago. there seemed good prospects that Dutch farnl help” would be available for Island forms but this hope has now waned. Practically all the arrivals from Holland are going to farms in Con- trol or Western Canada though ll. fcw I-lollanders are neaching the Is- land, Three Dutch families in fact were placed last week by the Char- lottetown office of the National Employment Service. and also one all ' le man. These families will work wi Mr. W.R. Bovyer. Bunbury. Mr. Willard MacPherson. Orwell. and Mr. Allison Holmes. Charlotte- town R.R.. 3. The single man will be employed by Mr. William Jenk- ins, Vernon River,

They base their decision on the information given by the claimant on the form he fills out when he is applying for benefit. and on his insurance book. The more in- formation the claimant puts on the form. the easier it is for the adjudicator to make a prompt de- cision.

From this information. and from the record in the claimant's in- surance book the adjudicator de- cides how long benefits can be paid, the amount of the weekly cheque. which is based on the de- nomination of the stamps used and on whether or not the person has a dependent.

Diequalificatlone

Disqualifications in January were for a variety of reasons. six persons failed to have their re- quest for benefit granted because it was ruled that they were not available for and capable of work; 17 refused an offer of work and neglected an opportunity to work; 24 were found to be not unemploy- ed under the regulations of the act; 16 had voluntarily left their work without just cause and four others for not having the required number of contributions. There were none who had lost their work due to a labour dispute. This is also a reason for disqualification.

In addition to the regular claims. 400 for supplementary benefit were also disposed of during the lnonth and payments totalling so.- 406 were made. The sdjudlcators passed 255 of these claims for pay- ment while they found that 145 were not entitled to benefit.

Decisions of the adjudicator: may be appealed by the claimant who can request that his case be reviewed by the Court of Referees, an independent groups represent- ative of employers and employees. If their decision is unfavorable the claimant can request that the Umpire, who is a Judge of the Supreme Court of Canada. will de- clde. his decision is final. In all cases. from the adjudication by the insurnnce officers to the um- hire. the decisions are based sole- iv on the claimant's fulfillment of the conditions for benefit as laid down by the Unemployment In- sursnce Act.

31' HE GUARDIAN.

The following address on the political campaign issues ws giv- en on Saturday evening by the Hon. J. Wilfrid Arsenault. Pro- vincial Secretary:

in Prince Edward Island. And once again the Liberal Party led by Premier J. Walter Jones. is asking you, the voter, for a fresh mandate to carry on the Govern- ment of this Province.

"We invite you to examine the record of the Liberal party. We invite you to examine that record. not only in the light of the progress of the past four years. but also in the light of achievements and accomplish- ments of 15 years of Liberal rule.

"When our party took over the reins of Government back in 1935. the economic welfare of this Province left much to be desired. The policies of the party that preceded us were inadequate to cope with the problems of the time with the result that we were in the throes of one of the worst depressions our Province has ever known.

”It was our difficult task to apply the brakes to this runaway depression which threatened our very economic life. Our farmers and fishermen were receiving a mere pittance for the produce which represented their labors. Our young men and women were

unable to find themselves jobs and

fit themselves into normal living. Risk capital needed to develop our industries and resources was locked up in strong boxes. Truly, it was an unhappy picture.

"But the Liberal party in this Province. with the support of a newly-elected Liberal administra- tion st Ottawa. set out with vigor and determination to rem- edy the situation. Haw we have suoceeded in our task is now one Iof the brighter chapters in the history of this Island Province.

”Our fiscal policies resulted in the releasing of monies to touch off a broad program of public works and road building. Grants were made to encourage the ex-, pansion of agriculture. The Fish- enmen's Loan Board made it pos- sible for our fishermen to build new boats and oqluip themselves to earn a living. he list of un- employed began to shrink.

War Emergency

"By 1939 we were heading back to a period of normalcy. Then came the war. With it came the need for greater supplies of foodstuffs. Because of the build- ing which the Lilbemi party had done in the five years which pre- ceded the conflict our economy did not take long in gearing it- self to meet the emergency. We are proud of our record under

Within a year Prince Edward Is- land may see an ultra-modern sinn- mer hotel under construction in the National Park.

Toronto interests, already the owners of three summer resorts. have reportedly expressed a willing- ness to erect such a building, and are obtaining infuunstion about a possible site, beach. golf and trans- portation facilities and similar de- tails important to tourist promo- tion. Much of this information had been obtained from literature issued by the Provincial Government. but the intrested parties are now gath- ering the Island story at first-hand.

Premier J. Walter Jones was first consulted. and, on his advice, var- ious other members of his cabinet as well as business men conversant with the tourist business.

A carefully prepared design of the type of hotel proposed was shown the Premier and others. and it is understood the Toronto interest are prepared to back the project with a considerable financial outlay.

For several years the Provincial Government has favored the build- ing of more and better tourist sc- ccmmodation. It is known also that the National Park authorities will cooperate in every way to have ad- ditional comfortable hotel accom- modation provided in the Park area.

Martial Law In Tehran Is Lifted

Rszmara. prlrne min- istor, last month. Martial law and curfew remain in force in the southern oil provinces where workers are on strike.

Police Trace Authorship Of Faile Cheques

The writer of two spurious cheques which were passed in Charlottetown stores last October has been identified in a letter recently received by Police Chief C. MacArthur from R. C. M. P. Headquarters in Ottawa. The culprit was a transient visitor to the Island, and his present where- abouts are unknown.

The two cheques. for 347.50 each, were made out on a Sum- merside finm, endorsed with the name of s Charlottetown man, and cashed in Woolworth's and Wright's Shoe Stores. After they had ”bounced," the cheques were passed on to Chief MacArthur for illlvesllgation. and he im- mediately obtained a sample 0,! the handwriting of the man whose name was used as ondorscr.

Identical in appearance, the amount on the cheque was stamp- ed wiih a cheque protector ma- chine. and the name of the com- pany was inserted with a rub- ber stamp, and apparently sign-

Chief MacArthur forwarded them to R. C. M. P. headquarters to be checked against the sample of handwriting he had obtained and the answering letter entirely cleared the local man.

The experts stated the sample had not been written by the man who wrote the cheques. but be- cause of their exceptional system of filing. were able to identify the writing on the cheque as that of a former inmate of Dorchester Pen- itentiary. A picture of him was included in the letter. and was reportedly identified as the man who had presented the cheque to be cashed by Mr. A. L. Wright.

The letter also stated the same man had cashed cllcqucs in No- vember of last year in Belling- hsm. Wash. in addition to identifying the handwriting. the serial number of the cheque pro- tecior machine which had stamp- ed the cheques was also revealed.
