When they went to Ottawa, these men found themselves the centre of much interest, for since iney came from a new province. it was not known exactly what their political affiliations were.

n ThWSh the bore the labels Conservatives‘ and "Liberal" in Island politics before union, they were b no means allied with the Fedora rtles bearing the same names. rdinarily the addition of six new members would not have caused much concern. but in 1813 Sir John Macdonald and his Gov- ernment were involved in the “Pacific scandals", end every vote that could be counted for or a alnst the Government in the ouse was of the greatest import- ﬂhce- In furl. o canvas of mem- bers had shown that y strength on the scandals s e was elm t o ual.

0f the sixmfr. Laird was ex- pected to wield the most influ- ence. for he was known to corn- mand the support of Messrs. Sin- clair. Yco, an Davies, while Aus- tin MacDonald was associated with J. C. Pope. The Prime Miri- ister made careful enquiries of his friend lion. W. I-I. Pope who ad. vised him that Laird was "a clev- er, hard-headed fellow intellectu- illly of the stamp of Mackenzie.

During the autumn of 1s73 the scdndals debate raged in the House of Commons. lrho h it was expected that M onald would have to retire. it was not certain whether he would be forced to resign with his Govern- ment or have the privilege of choosing his successor. A hand- Iul of votes would decide his fate. Uncertainty prevailed until Mr, Laird rose to gpeak.

He then expressed his intention of vﬂliriil with the opposition. which pronouncement. iiion with a sim- lar one from Mr. naid Smith (later lord Strathcona). decided the fate of the Government and led to the resignation of Sir John Macdonzld.

Alexander Mackenzie. the Lib- eral leader, was then called upon to form a government. In this new administration David Laird was the Minister of the Interior, .f.l'lii5 becoming the first Prince 'Ed'.rard Island member to have a sert in the months later the new government was returned to office in a gen- eral election with e majority of.‘

was difficult because of the feuds between the two tribes and their unwillingness to bargain. Laird himself undertook the task and, accompanied by Governor Morris and a military detachment, jour- neyed to Fort Quulppelle to meet the Indians. The negotiations were entirely successful, and treaties were signed with both tribes.

g Mr. Land's tenure of office as Minister he took a keen interest. in the welfare of the In- dians and fsrrilllarized himself with their customs and their needs. In the House of Commons he sponsored successfull an Act "to amend and consoii ate the lows respecting Indians" and displayed an excellent knowledge of Indian affairs.

Mr. IalrrYs Appointment

It was natural. therefore that, when the North West Territories were set up es s. separate admin- istrative unit in i876, Mr. Laird should be asked by Prime Minister to take office as its first Lieutenant Governor and Super intendent of Indian Affairs. At first he was not disposed to ac- cept. but Mackenzie stressed the

vernmenVs view that the new

‘eutenant Governor sho d be one who was perfectly emiliar with the West and on good ta with the Indians; Finally Mr. Laird consented, resigned his Prince Edi- waxd Island seat, and forthwith prepared for the Jcumcv west-

ward.

Short] afterwards occurred the culmine ion of the long standing and often bitter rivalry between Mr, Laird and Hon. J. C. Papa. The two had been political op- ponents during several years ol Island politics, and they had car- ried their dlsagreement to the Federal House. In the bye-election necessitated by Laura's appoint- ment to the governorship Pope con- tested and won the Queen's County seat for the Conservatives. One of his chief election appeals was s condemnation of Laird for hav- ing accepted the ap intment and thereby depriving, ince Edward Island of a seat in the Cabinet. Though it was to a larsi! extent effective, this did not enhance Mr. Pope's reputation in the op- inion of those who realized that Mr, Laird as a representative o the Crown had no why of reply-

About mo deponietlon of Germans, he seid that meuy of the de- pomo Germans being driven back mo» Germany proper, an; been taken by Hitler and put on ‘the farms of the Poles and others he had iiiaplitccit, This movement was not the beginning, but the development or what had already occurred. In Czechoslovakia, which he hoped would, t-e democratic again, the Czechs and Slovaks and Sudetan Germans ilvcd together in perfect. harmony until Hitler's stooges and agents broke up their, democratic state. We ought not to be too hard on Poland o!‘ Osccnosiovekls." i-ie asked the House to remember all these countries in Europe had had their governmental machines completely destroyed. Triey had been overrun turice, end he asked members to imagine whet the United Kingdom would be like if it h-ad been invaded by two smiles. Wit-h the whole of their machinery completely destroyed they could not expect an improved and new organization, coming into being within six months to handle everything with perfection. '

The Foreign Sezretery said that for months, in the Coalition Gov- rniment, they studied objectively the kind of situation which they thought would face them at the end of war. They thought. at one time i-hcre might possibly be some form of central government in Germany IeIt—the old civil service-something they could have got a grip on; but as the war went on it became obvious that the Hitler regime in- ended, if they could not win, to leave Europe in a complete stole q! anarchy. "W: hed no alter all our plans and redevise a system which wr-iud take the place of a government in s. country that had no organi- zation at all. I hope and trust and long for the dy when ell notions will put their trust. in a world organization, because I do not zhink frontiers and spheres of influence are so important, as they used to be with the development of science. I am not. unhopeful that, lri spite of diiﬂculties, that will develop before long."

DISEASE AND per-pumice

Mr. Bevin spoke of the efforts to build a wall of defence against disease and opldemizu in Europe. But he added “resistance in your own country, with two ounces of fat o. week, is pretty 1ow". He said that the demand for wheat must be met in order to avoid worse disaster this w. tor, but it, inust come from the wheat countries. Congress in the LS. A. was now considering a vote of four hundred million pounds to U.N.R.R..A. He commented “it th-st vote is not carried, U.N.R..R.A. will be broken. and the situation faced in a. few weeks’ time would be dis estrous. Difficult as our own ﬁnancial situation was, "we agreed to pay the sameeequivalent amount as America-one percent of our income.” lie regarded the evolution of U.N.R..R.A. from the standpoint of effic- iency as most remarkable in the past few months, but its responsibilities wcrtgrowing as well.

Dealing with the transfer and migration problem in Eastern Europe. fie said that present evidence was that some Germans were drifting beck inio the Polish zone. There were also millions of people in Germany and the Middle Ease-displaced persons as theresult of slave labor-l and he asked the House to appriciafa the position as for a8 onecould get it in terms of figures. There were, for instance, something like four n ion Germans who left Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary, and other countries chided large numbers-so for as one could estimate, an- other four to four and a half millions.

Then there were some two and o. hail million moving into Poland. Alter giving other figures, Mr. Bevin said there wee a total of four- teen to fifteen million people moving at once. some one way, some the other. Then there were more than len rriillion displaced persons w move out of Germany back to Italy, France and elsewhere. i-Ie went or. "at a rough estimate, we have had to handle in that territory. slnvl the was‘ closed. and s‘..- proceedlng to handle, a number not far short of twenty-ﬁve million peorple". ‘

That is the picture, and thli’ Ire not all going one way" Recalling that at the Qouncll of NR1!!!
