of that body today, But there was a word of warn- ing. "We cannot be sure yet, how.

under continued Mr. McLeod. “The factors which were mainly respon- sible for the depression are still active. Since these factors are for tho most part, international in scope and origin, they are far more difficult to deal with than if they were local and amenable to remedies applied by national g0 . ornments on their own initiative. ‘We still await the settlement 01th! Pressing problems of war debts," he said. “Until this has been disposed of I feel we have not assurance of sustained recov- ery. Moreover, we still await a gen- eral readjustment o! tariffs and a llflhtening of exchange restrictions mlt the resumption of international trade on 1| scale adeql-lflte for prosperity. These are llrsent problems, and action in re- gard to them cannot be postponed ause business is a little better than it was last June."

ONE THOUSAND

(Continued from Pale l) Buried Under Chimney

There were unconfirmed reports that four persons had been buried under a collapsing chimney at Camaguey, Carnaguey province.

Nuevista, Camagliey, on the north coast. reported a wind veloc- it)’ of 130 miles an hour before the wires went out, and there were in- dications, weather officials said,

that the damage through part of the three provinces had been tre- mendous. Sugar company officials feared huge areas of cane had been destroyed.

Expect High Death List

Apparently Camaglley province was hardest hit. There were re- ports that the death list in Majua- Elia would be high, -

Thirty-three of the 200 injured at Camajuani and nearby areas, were taken by train toward Santa Clara. The Camajuani suburbs oi Ceiba was destroyed by the tre- mendous force of the wind.

The government proceeded at once to prepare rescue measures, awaiting only word as to where to send special trains, doctors, nurses and equipment. It was be- lieved probable the first train would head for Camaguey prov- ince.

A train due from that. area last night failed to arrive, and a bus driver reaching Santa Clara told of heavy damage. He was unable to estimate casualties, but said the storm lasted seven hours. '

Meanwhilc the government san- itation department answered an appeal from Camajuani, a city oi 23,000, for supplies, by ordering them in from Cienfuegos. Two hundred doses of anti-tetanus serum was sent immediately from Havana. ,

CAMAGUEY, Cube., Nov. 11- (A.P.)--Fresh reports from santa Cruz Del Sur and deaths from ex- posure and infection in various hospitals tonight raised the esti- mated causilties of the hurricane which struck southern Cuba Wed- nesday, to more than 1,700. FVJllF persons died in the General Hospi- tal here tonight and reports of similar deaths came from other towns where refugees have been taken. An unidentified woman gave birthto a girl on the last train load of wounded which reached Camaguey from Santa Cruz. Both

mother and daughter were living late tonight.

said they did not oppose developing Calfluiian poi-is but it was a slmp-‘e business problem of the cheapest freight rates. A fraction oi a cent meant thousands of dollars in the West. Prime Minister " ' Prime Minister Bennett took a hand in the discussion early in the day. The Government, he said, had not purchased wheat lately to stab- ilize the market “but it did assist one oi the enterprises that is MY"- ed by the people of Western Cun- ada to do so." He promised a full statement later. “There is an increasingly strollfl opinion," proceeded Mr. Bennett, "that Canadian ports should be

utilized by olne of the zrcowst v! Canadian industries (farming) if it in turn is to ask for and receive always every consideration from the Government of the day."

‘Three provsions must be fulfilled before Canadian ivlieai. secures the six-cent preference in Great BR8111- said the Prime Minister. It must be grown in Canada and consigned l0 Great Britain either on a through hill of iading or by document-i authenticated by Br-tish consuls.

"if it (the wheat preference) works out as we believe it will," exclaimed Mr. Bennett, “the effect will be to afford a larger market for Canadian wheat but not at higher prices."

There was suspicion among some members of the House that there was some definite uan afoot to dverl. Canadian svheat exports from United States to Canadian ports, . J. L. Brown (Lib. Lligfll"), told the committee of the Whole Hollsc when consideration oi the bill im- plementing the CanadlrUnited Kingdom agreement was resumed this altemoon.

It was apparent, said Mr. Brown. that wheat, going through United states ports to the United Kingdom would not share in the preference of six cents a bushel. He wanted i0 know if this ruling was part of some definite plan and ii repre- sentations had been made to the British Govemmentby the Cana- dian Government to bring this aoout.

"Is the honorable gentleman ob- posed to Canadian wheat going through canadan ports?" asked B- F. Smith (Cons, Vctoria-Carleton).

“At the moment there is no occa- slbn lo answer thctilileslbhi" Ye‘ plied Mr. Brown. He would Bsk the Ministry to answer his question, he said. -

There followed an argument b¢~ tween John Vallance, (Lib. South Butueford) and R. B. Hanson, (Cons, York-Sunbury), as to who would have the floor. Chairman Armand Iavergne ruled in favor of Mr. Hanson, and I-lon. H. l-l. Siev- ens, Mirfster of ‘Trade and Com- merce, saili he would answer Mr.

Brown after the val-bus members who desired had expressed their opinions.

ivllr. Hanson insisted that if the cargoes offered, the tonnage would readily be made available on the Atlantic coast. l-le urged that mem- bers do not ask the Government in bring pressure on the United King- dom Government to alter the resu- laticzi. If they did they would meet with I00 per cent. opposition from the Maritime Provinces. If, after trial. the Westerners found them- selves penalized it would be time to seek abrogation of thB T831118" tioii.

As far as wheat was concerned. the provisions of the Canada-Unit- ed Kingdom agreement meant just what they rad, Rt. Hon. R. B. Ben- nett, Prime lwnlster, informed lhc House. In the first place the wheat must bc the produce of the BfllLill Empire in order to come within the terms of the agreement. Secondly, it must be consigned to the United Kingdom or Northern Ireland on through transit.

There was irlcreasng evidence, he continued, that if the West was to gain all it hoped for from the agreement this condition must pre- vail. Much liad- been done to assist Western Canada, and was being done at present. While the Govern- ment had not actually purchased Western wheat it had assisted an organization owned by the people o: Western Canada. to do so. 0n that matter he Proposed to make a statement on Mondly-

The sale of wheat was one of the quickest methods for creation 0i now wealth, continued Mr. Bennett.

Venloi Join! Mllltol

An gppcal for consideration oi

the ports of bcint John and Halifax came from Hon. Dr. P. J, Venlot, (Lib. Gloucester). The ports were equipped to handle g ain. Much gmnoy had been spent on them. The rail and water rsie on grain 1mm the bay ports to Halifax and Saint John was lower than the rate to New York. "

Dr. vonlct directed his appeal

THE CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN

In his opinion it would be loo much to ask the Marltimes to sit

idly by while trade was diverted from Canadian row w "RIM States D0115.

The preference obtained on Whelli Show; be judged m the light of the disadvantage Canada, would have suffered had the United States ob- toned the preference while Can‘ ada did not, said W. W. Kennedy. (cons, Winnipeg south).

Hon. J. L. Ralsion, (Llb., Shel- burne-Yarmouth) supported Dr. Venlot‘s plea for the Maritime Pro- vince ports.

An assured market for Canadian wheat had ben secured in the Bri- tish market, said J. L. Bowman (Cons, Dauphin), and this left much less to be sold in the other markets of Europe. He emphasized that the West was sympathetic t0 Maritime aims, but recalled that the sale of wheat was a matter in which the slightest fraction of 'a cent made all the difference between a contract for a million bushels and the losing of that contract.

D. M. Kennedy (U. F. A, Peace River), thought that some means would be devised whereby the res- trictive character of the regulation would be overcome. . .

Responsibility for the situation must be borne by the Government, said Hon. W. R. Motherwell (Lib, Melville). It was changing the route which had been in use for the past 50 years of three-fifths of Canadas grain exports.

P. E. I. MEMBER

Canada had spent vast sums of money on railways and on equip- ping Atlantic ports with docks and harbor works, said J. H. Myers (Queens, P. E. I.) Here was an op- portunity to use them and that op- portunity should bc embraced.

"Fhe handling capacity of the Canadian Maritime ports was equal to any business that would offer, contended Felix Quinn (Cons, Hali- fax.) The assurance had been giv- en that adequate tonnage would be available if cargoes offered them- selves. The ocean rate from Hali- fax to Liverpool was about the same as that from New York.

when an agreement was entered into between Canada and the Unit- ed Kingdom it should have been drafted in such a, way as to pre- clude any possibility of misunder- standing, said E. J. Young‘, (Lib. Weyburll.) Mr. Young expressed the fear that the‘ effect of the agree- ment would be to raise ocean freight rates. 1f liners operating out of New York found that they had to pay six cents a bushel to get wheat into the United Kingdom the result might be higher ocean rates. And the New York lines controlled rates from all ports.

FROM CHURCHILL

B. M. Stitt (Cons., Nelson), ex- pressed himself as unable to under- stand why Opposition members should be so much concerned with developing United States ports and so little concerned with developing those of Canada. In the first place a large portion of thLs wheat was ordinarily not going to Great Bri. thin but to European markets. Sec- ondly, il it was United Kingdom. it received the preference. There was no need to fear any lnlury to Canadian inter- ests through the operation of the treaty. and it should be given a trial.

some of the members of the Op- position side took the ground that the Preference was of no value, con- tinued the Minister. That was a“ Very “loll. but what would they have said ii Canada lmd not asked m,- ,1 preference and Australia had asked for one and secured it. “we would have been accused or betraying the farmer," declared Mr. Stevens,

Housework Should Be A Malfs Job

Men arc gradually ousting womcn from thcir 701g Q1

"Merl. as a. matter of fact, make better domestic servants than Women." said Miss Eddy Mm. taguc, a. London employment spec- ialist.

"Hundreds oi men are taking 1055 9V"! month as housemalds, Pliflormalds, cooks, and kitchen scr- vants. And very good servants they are. too. At cooking men have got women beaten to a. frazzlc. ‘

"I consder that housework is more a man's 10b than a woman's Some of it is very heavy work for which women are quite unsuited.

"Probably the fallaclous idea that women make the best servants is due to the fact that as wives they have had to do all the housework. and there have aiways been more women doing housework mm men."

For over two years Senator Hay. don had been in ill health. ‘His rugged constitution broke down shortly after the 1930 general e1. ccllons when he was official head of the National Liberal organiza- tion. He had been confined tn his home a beautiful residence over- looking the driveway and canal, almost from the time illness over- took him.
