Iiode Board llears llornby Plan Discussed

Committee Appointed To Draw Up Resolution i For Council Approval.

i

A committee from the Charlotte- town Board of Trade will draw up a resolution in connection with

the Homby Plan of British Family 1 settlement in Canada a meeting of the Board Council decided last night. The appointment of the oonunittce followed a short ad- dress by li/h‘. H.5. Potter of Mel- fort, Sask., and a native of Diglby, N.S., who outlined the plan.

The speaker declared that the Horniby settlement scheme was to be financed entirely by the promo- ters without assistance financially from either Federal, Provincial or Municipal sources of this country.

In brief. the Hornby concem is

ers to Canada, place them on farms equipped with necessary ma- chinery, live-stock and provide comfortable dwellings and out- buildings. '

For five years these imported families would be tenanLs, so to speak, of the promoting company. During that time their living ex- penses would be taken care of and a fair percentage of the profits oi the fB-nn go to each individual farmer. These groups of 100 iam- iiies would be under the expert supervision of a. practical and ex- perienced farmer.

At the end of five years or before, a farmer would have the option of buying his farm. If a farmer failed to make good to the satis- faction of the Supervisor. he and his family would be taken‘ hack home at the cost of the Company. In fact the entire scheme under the Homby set-up guaranteed the gov- ernments of Canada against any expense. a

The llornby settlement plan will ‘ be subsidized by the British Emp re

Settlement fund o. the British ' Government which now stands at £1,500,000 a year for 15 years. Be- hind the plan was the beiief in the British Isles that the outlying parts of the Empire must be as- sisted with settlement of home- makers or the Empire Will suffer in consequence.

The need for British immigration was best seen in Saskatchewan, Mr. Potter said, where 53 per cent of the present population was of non-English origin.

The argument was heard, the speaker continued, that the time was not ripe for immigration with the large amount of unemployment in Canada. Farmers, too, object- ed because they felt that increas- ing the agricultural population would only further depress the markets for farm produce. There was, however, Mr. Potter declared, a large market in the British Isles for hjgh quality agricultural products.

The farms bought, would be as far as possible ones that were at present non-productive. When the five year period was completed i and the tenant went to buy his t own iarm money would be loaned at 3 per cent if present plans were unchanged. A fair market price would be paid for good farms. Sub- standard farms would nct be bought. ,

The committee appointed was composed of; Messrs. RB. Bell, president of the Board, RE. Mutch and C N. Bisnztt.

Ross told the first pub- lic hearing conducted in a month by Mr. Justice Joseph Archambault.

Gen. Ross said the mapority of the crime cases were not those of a foreign element. “There is trouble at the penitentiary whenever a new warden or inspector is appointed.‘ he said. "There is always criticisms of former administrations and wholesale dismissals are the Iefllili- In the army there are court mar- ttals, but in the penitentiary there are dismissals and no reasons giv- en."
