‘The Maritime Provinces are peculllrly situated in as much as they do not experience tremendous waves of prosperity nor do they seem b be so greatly ffected by

depressions," Mr. A. E. Arscott of‘

'lbronio, Assistant General Man- nger of th. Canadian Bank of commerce in charge of Ontario, Quebec, 'Ma.ritime Provinces and Newfoundland branches who arriv- ed in Ohnlrfottebown Saturday said last n'gllt. There seems to be more rolidlty and greater equilibrium in businem in the Maritimes, the as- sistant manager thought.

Accompanied by Mr. W. V. Gor-, don of Halifax, superintendent of] Maritime branches, Mr. Arscott is making a courtesy call on the banks and the customens in his district and renewing old acquaint- Il‘.CC8.

He has visited on th.'s tour St. John, Fredericton, Moncton, Hall- fsx, St. Johl'i’s, Nfld. and Sydney.

The visiting bank uificiais in- tend to leave by the Hochelagn to- day for Halifax stopping em-cute st 'n'uro. -

"I think the Marilimes arc par- ticularly fortunate for I have nev- cr seen the c'~Im1'y looking better or finer for good crops in Prince Edward Island," Mr. scoot declared.

People in Ontario, Quebec and the Prairie Provinces were very optimistic for a good crop and bus- inem was very active in those pro- vinces until the very serious drought of the past few weelm has caused a change in the outlook.

"How badly the country will be affected from the drought it is im- possible to say at this juncture. but we are sti‘l hopeful that with rain and reasonable temperatures con- ditions may not be as bad as séen at pru'ent," M1-_ Al-Ecoii. said. Poor crops in Ontario would react to 9. certain extent in favor of the Mari- times, 1:0 thought.

R€i'.’l'l'il'l.'§ to banking he pointed out that in some quarters it is stated that the reason the country does not come out of the d0l>l‘~”5- sion as quickly as 1: shou‘d is due to a shortag: of money, and that if the banks had been more liberal the country would work out of the situation more quickly.

This is not borne out in reality. Business if one looks at gov.=r‘n_-_

CHARLOTTETOWN. CANADA, MONDAY, JULY 27. 1936

His Majesty King Edward Dedi- cates Magnificent Monument On Vimy Ridge—-.-100,000 Wit- ness Impressive Scene.

(By Capt. W. W. Murray, M.C., Canadian Press Staff Writer) (C. P. Cable By Guardian's Special Wire) VIMY RIDGE, July 26—Enfolding flags released at i.he_iouch of a king’s hand disclosed to the world today the white stone symbol of Canada’s sorrow and honor and

On this battle-pocked ridge of Vimy—its scars healed now by the immortality of grass—King Edward VIII stood in the presence of rapt Canadian veterans, of grey war mothers, to dedicate the stately monument to those

; other thousands who sleep in the encircling plains.

High dignitaries were there.

Representatives of the

I iiritish and Canadian governments, the President and min-

isters oi France, joining in comrade-spirit that led the years of war.

But the day belonged to men who walk with the living only in spirit, and to the 6,000 of their comrades and kln who stood with faces upturned in the sun toward the white-cowlcd heroic woman before the monu.ment‘s two tower- ing pylons, the woman who is Canada, brooding over dead sons who lie in a foreign field.

King Edward touched the heart of this commemoration in a sent- ence: "Though the mortal remains of Canada's sons lie for from home, yet here where we now stand on ancient Artols their immortal memory is hallowed upon soil that is as surely Canada's as any acre within her nine provinces."

Here, the King said, was the liv- ing truth of Rupert Brooke's par- able:

“If I should die think only this

oi.’ me, That there's some corner of a for- eign field

That is forever England."

Brilliant. sunshine -—- the first Vimy has seen for a week—glist,en- ed today on the meadows and cornfields round about Vimy, etch- ed on the plain moving shadows rfom a sky dappled with white clouds.

The slopes were thronged by the farmers, the coal-miners, the fac- tory workers of northern France with their wives and children, come to honor the men from a for land who stormed this ridge nearly a score of years ago. A hundred thousand saw the white pylons of Canada’: memory clear against the sky.

They came from Douai, from Mcmln-Lietard, from Corbehem and Thelus, from a dozen towns and villages, some remembering the smoke and flame of stirring days, others too young to know, but drawn towards the white memorial atop the ridge by a sense of the occasions greatness and signifi- came.

The immediate area surrounding the monument was hemmed in by a line of French soldiers, and in- side this line the Canadian pil- grims nnd official representatives had their places. Drawn up at the rear were Canadian veterans and sailors, and Moroccan Spahis in their colorful uniforms—white cloaks with khaki turbans, red tunics and blue trousers. The Spnhls rode white horses. Fronting the monument were the 6,000 pil- grims who crossed the Atlantic for this day of dedication.

It was a. scene impressive beyond words——such a scene as France in all her moving history had not witnessed before.

War memories moved the great crowd. Eyes were moist as the Last Post rang over remembered com- rades.

Yet in all the ceremony there was no clamor of triumph. 'I'he note in almost every spoken word

“Vi/‘hat is happening is savwe

and criminal," said one of the refugees who arrived last night aboard the British destroyer Braz- on. “Most of us were locked in our hotels for seven days in complete darkness. Through the shutters we saw about 100 priests, Fascists and others shot down, chiefly by child- ren wearing red tim and red shirts. "The children were between 14 and 1'1 years old. They carried pistols, rifles, axes and punch- eons."

The whole Caleta district and the cane and Larios. principal streets of Malaga, were reported completely burned. with more than 250 buildings destroyed; several hundred persons killed and more than 1,000 wounded.

The refugees brought reports that 2,500 bodies were lying in the streets of Malaga. (There was no confirmation of this report from other sources).

Ono stated 50 Catholic priests had been placed together in a pub- lic square and shot down by a machine gun. (This report likewise was not confirmed elsewhere).

The Brazen brought 150 persons, including Americans as well as Britons. from Malaga and returned to that city for more, while the British destroyer Boreas carried 110 fleeing from 1-luelva.
