Rev Dr. W. E. Dudley, D.D, LL.D., expressed his great pleas- ure at being associated in fellow- ship with campaign workers in the Red Cross and referred to the und- versaiism of the movement, em- bracing as it did religion and pol- itics in the uplifting of humanity. l-le disagreed with the attitude of defeatism spread by many in this "atom" age and felt tltat. the get- ting together of public men in such a cause as they represented was an answer to those skeptics who expressed the thought that civilization had had its day. Other speakers included l-lis Worship Mayor B. Earle lvilacDon- ald. 0. B. E; NLr. T. F’. Mitchell. chairman of the Special Names Committee; Mr. Edwin Johnston. Provincial chairman, and Mr. T. Roy Cudmore.

Mr. Mitchell announced that. the Special Names Division had col- lected w daie $4.800 and indicat- ions were that they would meet their objective of $7.500.

Two new members were wlcomed. The Red Cross secretary, Mrs. Nicholson. reported that 2 toques. 1 pullover and 1 pair ankle socks had been passed in to Red Cross House. More sewing and knitting was completed and more work given out. . Mrs. Home reported sending fruit to the sick and the bill for same was voted to be paid.

Speaker Cullen. lhwas amended to provide that owners must re- ceive written I notice from the Minister before their lands are entered upon for the purpose oi’ making surveys, borings, tempor- ary roads, etc, for any purpose relative to the construction or repair of public works.

Deleted altogether was the sub- section complained of by Dr. Mac- Mlllan. .

‘The remaining clauses of the section permit entry of workmen with carts, trucks, etc., the deposit- ing of logs, poles and other mater- ial, digging, quarrying. cutting of trees, etc, the building and using of temporary roads, and the diverting tn any way deemed necessary of water courses, roads, waterpipes, drains, wires, poles, etc.

On motion of Hon. A. F. Large. all engaged in these occupations must carry the Minister's written authorization.

Power 0f Expropriation

Section] of the bill empowers the Minister to expropriate “any land which he may deem necessary for any purpose relative to the use, construction, maintenance or repair of a public wcrkcr for ob- taining better access thereto."

Under subsection 2 (later de- leted.) it empowers him to ex-

proprlate any land which he may

deem necessary for: "(a1 the purpose cf encourag- ing farm settlements within the

Province;

“(b) the purpose of encourag-

ing the development of any in-

dustry within the Province; "(cl any other public purpose

was the most controversial section of the bill, and he would welcome frank discussion.

Many Obieetions Mr. n. 1.. Mathiason laid r.‘

could well realise the hesitsncy with which this section was promoted. because it goes much further than there is any necessity for. When the bill was tabled he thought it must have come chewan, and be was surprised to find that it had been passed some years ago in Nova Bcotia. it does not fit into our economy," he added. “What would be the

ing for the purpose of ‘eacourago farm settlements within the -

Russia. Are we going to have a class of Kulacks here, who have been dispossessed of their farm holdings?

"As for ‘encouraging the de- velopment of any industry within the Province,’ -does that mean taking over private property for the purpose of the Government going into business? The next section is the worst of all. Under it. any industry might be taken over by the Government. We are already concentrating a good deal of power in the hands of the Minister of Natural Resources, and here you are going to give him power to completely socialize the country."

Hon. Mr. Matheson said he agreed with "a great deal" of what. the member from Charlottetown said.

“Unfortunately? the Minister added, "there are some small farms in this Province that are not be- ing used. I am sure there is no

‘ intention of socializing anything.

but we require authority if we wish to take over any of these un- used farms of 100 acres, more or less. Formerly we took some of them over for taxes, but we have not got that power any longer. In any case it is not a question cf taking over large areas - whole communities or lots, or anything of that kind.”

Mr. D. L. Mathlsson: "You are taking the power here."

Hon. Mr. Mathescn: “The power is there, I grant you; definitely.”

Hon. Dr. MacMillan: “I think it is going too far. It. may be necessary in the Public Works Department to give the Minister great powers, but I have my doubts about the others. Why not limit this to un- used or unoccupied land? You are and It is the direct antithesis of dem BM]

Mr. D. L. Mathieson recalled that. the Legislature had already voted a. lot of money for the encourage- ment of farm settlement. He agreed with his leader that "onoe you go outside public works it: is absolutely necessary to confine authority to cxpropriate."

Mr. William Hughes pointed out that school trustee boards s.re em- powered to sell unoccupied farms in their districts. Mr. Matheson replied that there were some areas where there were no school districts at present.
