Committee Appointed To Draft Resolu- tion. ~

Criticism of the regulations, whereby a1! moat shipped IN!!! this Province must be killed in govern- ment inspectrd abbatolrs, was voiced by various speakers at. a meeting oi farmers. drovers members of the local legislature. and other inter- ested persons, held in the hall in the City Building yerterday after- noon. Mr. J. J. McCarthy of John- gson's River was the ‘chairman.

y As a result of the meeting a com- mlttee consisting of Messrs. J. Wal- ter Jones, M. L. A., chairman. John Roop, H. H. Acorn, M. L. A., Angus .McPh':e, M. L. A., and John Court was appointed to draft a resolution to be forwarded to the Dominion_ Government. The reso‘ution, it Wis understood, would ask the Domin- ion Government to modify the re- quirements for abbatoirs so that one could be built in this province of a smaller size and at less cost than the rules call for.

Among the speakers at yester- day's meeting w:re Messrs. J. J. McCarthy, John:on‘s River; Wel- lington Maclveil. Southport; Angus McPhee. M. L. A., New Haven; W. F. A. Stewart, M. L. A., Strath- gartney; G=orge Wheatley, Char- lottetown; P. A. Maclsaac, M. L. A,. Souris; L. D. MoPhee, C‘yde River: H. H. Acorn. M. L. A.. Sourls; James McLean, i-iampthire: Peter Sinclair, M. P.: R. E. Mulch, J. Walter Jones M. L. A., John R/oop, Gordon New- som, Kensington; Dougald Mac- Klnnon, M. L. A.. Point Prim: John Court, Fdford.

Mr. McCarthy. the chairman, in opening the meeting spoke briefly on the regulations claiming that they resulted in monopolies. “And when you drive competition out of a country you lay the foundation for s. calamity," he declared. “Who asked for the new regulations‘? Che farmers?” he asked. "No, the ab- batoirs, for they have by that move taken things into their own hands."

If the regulation cannot be changed and if there can be no concessions for this province then the on'y thing is to ask the govern- ment to build an abbtitnir Mr. Mc- Carthy went on to say, but he did not approve of it if it could be done without.

Mussolini Indicates Refusal To Tolerate Interference In Eth- iopian War.

(C. lK-Havas)

(By Guardian's Special Wire)

ROME, Jan. Iii-Italy proclaim- ed lts defiance to the world to- night on the eve of another mo- mentous Fascist Grand Council session. When the Council meets tomorrow night it is expected Premier Mussolini will give further indication of his refusal to tolerate interference in the war against Ethiopia.

Meanwhile semi-official sources interpreted Il Duce's warning oi “the resolute determination oi the Italian people" at yesterday's cab- inet council meeting as new proof that he intends to strengthen his fighting forces for any emergency, whether in Europe or in East Af- rlca.

Newspapers printed long editor- ials today giving militant approval to the dictators stand.

“The Italian nation knows noth- ing can force it to accept a hu- miliatlng peace," Corrlere Della Sera sold. “If others should seek to extend anti-Italian pressure be- yond the economic realm, Italy would be in a. position to take up like chant-dire." _ _ ,

L a. v o r o Fascists, addressing "those who believe the effort in- volved in the Ethiopian undertak- ing has exhausted Italy's re- sources,” declared "11 Duce ans- wered ycsterday that the home armed forces were perfectly equip- Dod and trained.

paign ls continuing without in- terruption," the paper said.

One heard on all sides the great work oi the Junior Red Cross in physical health, but something remained to be told, and that is its contribution to the mental health of the nation.

The Junior Red Cross helped pre- emlnently in the happy, comfortable and successful adjustment of the normal child in four ways.

First, by its appeal to the emo- tions. “We sometimes forget the extremely important place emotions hold in life. Practically no normal child is ever unmoved by a Junior Reel Cross appeal for help for cripp- led children," Miss Browne said.

Linked up with that is another emotion, pride, the esprit de corps in belonging to a great national or- ganlzation.

In the second place the Junior Red Cross ls co-operative. In health work competition is entirely wrong, Miss Browne claimed. It is not so

v “None of our suggestions met with any support," he added. “Ap- parently they are not in line with the plans now on foot to bring about

the subordination of the provinces.”

Mr_ McNair asserted that the real purpose of the “new move- ment was “to set up a new con- stitution in the form of a statute of the Canadian Parliament, very serious and far-reaching consequences."

Provincial Status Endangered He predicted that under the plans New Brunswick would lose her status, enjoyed since her foundation in i784, as a province of Great Britain and would be- come simply a tenrltorial division of Canada; that her sovereignty would disappear, and that the Confederation established in 186'] would cease to exist.
