lolilntl The llmlllnss At Ottawa

By Dean Wilson

The Ooronation ceremonies and ms Imperial Conference have at- trmted a great many o! the lead- ing personalities and oﬂicials o! the Capital, but a close observa- tion of the Government Offices in the various Departments is productive of many surprises. Under such dmumstances one would ex- pect a state o! inactivity or a. holi- day atmosphere, yet that is not tho case.

‘The Hon. Raoul Dandurand. who is acting as Prime Minister in the absence oi the Hon. William Lyon MacKenzie King, ls a very busy man these days, and a check up of the other Ministers of the Crown shows that the Hon. P. J. A. Cardin, lion. J. L. Ilsley, Hon. C. D. Howe and the Hon. Norman Rogers, are all engaged in work iday and night, and which has caused a story to circulate in the .usually wail-informed circles that lilicre will be a sudden call for a ‘iassion of the House of Commons

when the official delegation to the ‘ Imperial Conference and the Cor- |0ll8Ll0il returns from London. ‘ All official statements and rc- Iporls have tried to create the lin- lpresslon that the next session oi ‘the House would not take place ‘until after the Christmas holl- ldnys. but these unusual activities Jon the part. of everyone in Ot- ltnwn indicates that the Govern- ment corilcmplzites the possibility ‘that some extremely important national legislation will have to be passed as a direct and immediate result of the momentous decisions of the Imperial gathering in Lon-

don. Corist-quciitly’ there is a

chance that an unusually early

summons may be scnt out to the

Mémbers of the House of Com-- moris to rush to the Capital for a

session this fall, and a meeting at such an early date will be no sur-

prise to the close observer of the

present doings in Ottawa. Then

again it is common talk that an

effort will be made by all the vari-

ous Governments -of the British Empire to pass upon the joint decl- sions of the hlstoiy-maklng Con- ference in London at one and the same time throughout the whole

Empire.

it is the first time in the 174 ytcars since Canada has emeiﬂcd from the pYl illvc colonial devol- opmeut of l aucc into a full-fledg- ed nation that a King of Canada really exists in name as well as fact, because the Coronation finds the Dominion participating in these ceremonies in the Capital of the Motherland as an autonomous nation within the Commonwealth. When King George VI assumed the‘ ‘crown. he also became the King of

gCanada which is Lhe first time _.that a British monarch has been designated with this title. This is

the direct outcome of what is

known as the statute of West-

minster which was agreed upon at

the Imperial Conference in 1926.

when Canada and the other Do-

mizilous gained a full and official

standing of nationhood. There is

no longer any political links such

as existed prior to i926. and Can-

ada is now a part of the British

Empire through sentimental ties.

The head cf the present Govern-

ment ls the Governor-General,

but he is the personal representa-

tive of the sovereign. and not a

delegate of the British Govern-

ment.

In this coronation year this

designation is extremely import-

ant because it is not. a change in name only since the new stand- ing of the Dominion of Canada in- fers that a new course of Can- adian history will be shaped by the statesmen of the Dominion. and it ls certain that Canada will play a far greater and more im- portant role on the international Doiitical scene as a direct result of this growth to nationhood. In rc- ceiit years Canada has used this new power for the purposes oi negotiating many trade treaties with foreign powers. but that ls only a. start on this ncw course in Canadian history and many high- ly significant results and con- sequences are bound to material- ize in the near future.

The Dominion Bureau of Statis- tics in Ottawa reported the other day that the wheat bins of the nation were emptlcr now than at any other time since 1922. and that all signs indicated that the farm- ers were about to enjoy a. harvest of gold such as many have not seen in years. Officials point out that Canadian stocks of wheat to- tal about 11B millions of bushels right now. while it was over 246 millions last. year at this same time. Therefore. a very optimistic atmosphere exists in the Govern- mental circles in Ottawa over the prospects of the farmers of the nation's wheat belt since every re- port coming to the Capital in- dlcates that Canadian farmers have increased their wheat acre- ago over that of last summer. and the bright outlook arises from the facts that. there are signs of a wheat hunger amongst the war- frlghtened nations of Europe. dwindling world supplies of this product and an expected rise in prices everywhere.

MR8. CHARLES MIJRCHISON

On the morning of Thursday. Afpfﬂ 3th, the people of Glen Wil- liam and surrounding districts learned with a feeling of sadness that death had removed from their midst a much beloved and greatly respected member ct the commun- ity in the person of ma. Charles Murchison.

Three days previousto her death, and while engaged in her house- hold duties, she was suddenly stricken with apoplexy from which she never regained consciousness. but peacefully passed away on the above mentioned date.

The deceased who was in her 74th year was almost a life long resident of Glen William, having spent many of her happy girlhood days there. and to where she again later returned as the bride of Charles Murchison. When Mr and Mrs. Murchison set up their home in what was then a. com- paratively new settlement, no doubt they together encountered many of the hardships of pioneer life yet present, but the home. es- tablished more than fifty years ago. was built on a foundation of love, unsclflshncss and considera- tion for others in an unusual de- gree, shown by the inmates for each other as well as for the "stranger Wlihltl their gates".

Into this happy home were born seven children: John. at home, who with his kind, good wife. is now the mainstay of his father in his declining years; Simon in Washington; Margaret (Mrs. J. J. Kore) New York City; Simena. (Mrs. Hayo Rodenbttrg). New Or- leans; Elizabeth (Mrs. Nell Mc- Pherson» Glen Marlin. 'I‘wo llttlt- boys. John Angus and John James died in early childhood.

Besides the memfhcrs of her own immediate family, Mrs. Murchison is survived by the following bru- thcrs and sisters: Mrs. Sarah Bruce. Heatht-rdalc: Mrs. John McKenzie, Edmonton; Rev. Donald Finlmvson. Spokane: AngusinBns- tori; and James ln HaverhllLMass. To her bereaved husband and family and other relatives the heartfelt sympathy of their many friends is extended in the loss of one so near and dear to them. The funeral services were con- ducted at her late home and at the grave in Caledonia cemetery. on Saturday. April 10th. by Rev. T. R. Goudge. and were attended. despite the very inclement weath- er, by a large gathering who came to pay their Inst tribute of respect to one of whom it might fltllngly be said: she had many friends but of enemies she had none.

SLAUGHTER FUR- . BEARING ANIMALS

REGINA. May 5- (CP)—.Fur- bearing and big game animalswlll become extinct in Saskatchewan unless measurts are take“ W!‘ their protection, D. A. Hall. Liber- nl mcnlbcr oi the Saskatchewan legisnture for Athabasca. declared in the legislature just before ad- journment.

He predicted wild life wouldnot last for long when civilization gOt into the far North. At the new northern mining camp of Gold- fields during the past year barren land caribou had been slaughtered due to shortage of food supplies. One man was reported to have kiled 500 and another 600 oi these animals. .

The fur situation in the north this year was the worst it had ever been. Over-trapping was partly responsible and there was also a low ebb in the fur-bearing animal cycle. .

Mr. Hall suggested a game pre-

serve near Goldfields to protect wild life. . The Utopian Society of the

United Church in Tryon, enter- tained the members of the B. Y. P. U. at a very enjoyable social. on Friday evening. April 30th. The program opened with s. sing-song, followed by an unique debate. The subject for debate was "Resolved, ‘That there should be thirteen months in the year." The negative won. Those taking part, were Miss
