NATIONS' LEAGUE IN

HEART OF MONTREAL

Constituting

Nations" in Montreal. the

a “Little league of the very heart of Boy Scout group of

the Church of All Nations is one of the most unique boy organ- isations of the world, in that its membership is drawn from no less than 15 European nationalities. And although it is one of the most active and successful troops of the Dominion, there is not a boy of British nativlty in it.

The 109 boys making up this

Gmurp, 65 Scouts and 44 Cubs, or junior Scouts, are the sons of na- tions. many of which are tradi- tional Gnemles, and habitually suspicious of one anothers' motives. But here in Canada their trans- planted sons work, learn, play and obey the Scout Law side by side, in an atmosphere of true camar- aderie, and national spites and rancours have no place in their lives. It ls a remarkable vindica- tion of the confidence in universal boy nature shown by the founder of the Scout Movement, Lord Baden-Powell, when he expounded that fourth Scout Law. "A Scout is a Brother to every other Scout," irrespective of race or creed.

The nationalities represented in

this extraordinary group, listed in order of numerical strength, are: Ukranian, Hungarian, Polish, Rus- sian, Itallan, Serbian, Jugo- Slavlsn. Bulgarian, German, Aus- trlan, Roumanian, Czeoho-Slovak-

ian, Grecian, French and Croat- an. . Some of these boys are fluent linguists, and many are the occa- sions on which they are called up- on to act as interpreters for social service work. One of their chief “good turns", and this is true par- ticularly of the Wolf Cubs, is teaching their mothers the Eng- lish language. They negage heart- ily in community work of any na- ture, and recently presented to the church a. beautiful quartered-oak harid-carved communion tmble, a reading desk of similar design, a magnificent brass cross and three brass flower vases.

The value of the gifts was en-

hanced by the fact that the boys themselves did much of the work on the various articles, under guidance of a master craftsman, father of one of the Scouts. They paid for them from their Scout fees, and with money raised through various service efforts.

These boys think and live Scout-

ing. They are the stuff of which real citizens are made, and it is doubtful if their attendance re- cord of 93 percent for all meetings held during the past six months ls equalled by any other Scout group in Canada.

Two of the boys returned to

Mr. Allen maintained that it was

the first time in the Province's his- tory that it had been neomsary for the Minl.s'te.rial_ Association to com- plain of laxity in Sabbath Day ob- servance. “It only goes to show.” 9 he said, "that somebody-either the Royal Canadian Mounted Pollze or uiis ciovsmment-is remiss in itsl duties, because we have every Sun- day the stores open and practically everything opened up clear of the large stores. The R.C.M.P. cannot help ,seeing this but they pzss it by. They wink at lt. Are they .oLd to wink at it or are they allowed to go ahead and enforce t_he law? one or the other must be to blame.

Attorney Geneml's Question

‘I would like to ask the hon.

member a question." said Hon. Mr. Mi-1cPhee. "'I-Ie refers to certain stores being open on Sunday. Is he nrferririg to the town of Summer- side?"

Mr. Allen: “Fur the benent of

the Attorney General, unless he is blind-"

I-Ion. Mr. MadPhee: “The question

is a simple one."

Mr. Allen: "My hon. friend can

.see it in the city of Charlottetown."

Hon. Mr. MacPhee: “I am asking

the hon. member if he is referring to the town of Summe;side.”

Mr. Allen: “I am referring to the Province of Prince Edward Island."

I-Ion. Mr. MacPhee: “Perhaps the hon. member does not wish to answer my question. My question was, does his reference include the town of Summerslde, or does lt not?"

Mr. Allen: - "The Province of

Prince Edward Island-"

Hon. Mr. MscPhee: "As a. member

from Summerside, he might natur- ally he speaking for that town. I wish him to answer, if he cares to."

Mr. Allen; “I am speaking for

the Province of Prince Edward Is- land." (Laughtem

I-Ion. Mr. MacPhee: “He doesn't

wish to answer?"

Mr. Alien: "If the town of Sum-

merside is not in this Province of Prince Edward Islanc', then it does not include Summerside." (Increas- ed laughter.) f

Mr. J. A. MacDonald: "That is

only equivocating." . Mr. Allen: “For the benefit of the Attorney Qeneral I may any it in- cludes Summerslde." (Laughter)

their native countries, Poland and Hungary, last year, but are regular communicants with their old Scoutmaster. They took Scout transfers with them, and one has joined a troop at his home town in Poland, where, doubtless, he re- gales his fellow Scouts on many occasions with stories of the Scout brotherhood of nations in Mont- real.

The first troop of Boy Scouts

was organised at Brownsea. Island. England, in l9CYI, when Baden- Powell gathered together 24 boys for an experimental camp which was the forerunner of the great Boy Scout Movement of today.

On Wednesday, March 13th, the

first regular meeting since the of- ficial opening of the den cn Febru- ary 12th was held bythe Charlotte- town Rover crew. The reason for this breach in the running order was the fact that the “Welcome- Baden-Powell" campaign was using the Rover den as its headquarters.

An additional portfolio offi:e ha"

the sufmssful efforts made in co operation with Boards of Trade t reduce the automobile rates on th oar ferry. The Premier had kind! referred to the assistance which hr Mr. Allen. had given. He believe that in_the past, and "as a, whole we have not gone to Ottawa as

charged. had been allowed to lapse on Faloonwood Hospital before the fire and the Pravhice lost this amount. The new Falecnwrod plans in addition to being very expensive, .had been dravm "by a. foreign ar- chitect.” .

Premier McMillan: "What do you

mean by foreign?"

Mr. Allen: "Outside the Province.” Premier McMillan: "That was not

foreign." '

Mr. Allen: "It was foreign to the

Province.”

Mr. Allen said the new plans had

,C0-Sli DWI' 535.000 but the House had never been given the privilege of seeing them. He thought the Gov- ernment had been ill advised in paying this amount of money which "about amounted to the dole paid 'out last year."

_ Potato Shipments

Discussing potato shipments

under the Marketing scheme, Mr. Allen said that in January 188 cars were moved. In February 165 cars loaded and of thatnumber 32 cars were sold previous ie the Marketing Act coming into effect. This as com- pared with 449 car; shipped in Feb- ruary of last war.

Liberal Subsidies

He took exception to the state.

.ment that the Liberals had not re- ceived anything in the way or sub- sidy grants. The Fsrquharson Gov- emmcnt, he said, had received a subsidy increase of $30.000 in 1901. an din 1907 the Pcte.s G0.vernn;ei1t received $70,000 additional, maicing a. hundred thousand dollars before the Conservatives received anything. The Conservatives, he charged, had on one occasion taken $10,000 an- nually out of our capital account at Ottawa and applied lt for current revenue.

Hon. Mr. Sharp: "That is what

your Minister of Public Works wants to do with the fishery award.’

Continuing. Mr. Allen said that

The farmers and ftshedmen were

now in a. worse position than at any

time in git :iistory og the Province. h in ri _ evgizez “Is that the fault of this Government?"

Mr. Alien admitted it was “not

MB.. ANNEAB. .

Mr. Montague Annear. (Liberal.

Fourth Kings). who followed Mr. Allen in the debate, asked how 10118 the agricultural policies enunciated in the Throne Speech had been in operation by the Government. Mix- ed farming has always been~prac- ticed in this Province. He reviewed the early development of the daifl' and seed Potato industries.

This year, when there is a. sur-

plus of potatoes, those farmers who have raised hogs can feed their sur- plus stook at home. WMCY1 is °f\¢ °f the greatest advantages of mixed farming, he emrha5iZ€d.

If more colts are being raised to-

day than ln .former years, Mr. Ah- near aiu not think the government should take "a, great deal of the credlt."

Cheese production, he said, had

declined 40 per cent and butter lJr°" duction 12 per cent, which did notl

mdicotelthat these industries were

Low Farm Prices

The low prices received for wool

and cowhides was strongly emphas- ized. Nearly all farm products had slumped in price compared with the price of the products which ‘the farmer has to buy. The Am€l1CRI1 duty is still fifty cents a bushel ngninst our potafocs. We are proc- tically out of the Cuban mariket and the railway freight rates are still exorbitant. If the Government couid do anything to remedy i/h€f'€ conditions it would be very mum appreciated. We should be able to do something, he believed. ,in the face of such pressing problems.

Potato Growers' Association

Stress was laid on the benefits

received by the Province through the Potato Growers Association. Mr. Annear thought it would be n calamity if this organization should have to go out of existence. The Govemment (which he ccmmenied for having already assisted the As- sociation in guaranteeing fertilizer and spray material) shoud not only be willing, but anxious, to guaran- tee to the bank a sum sufficient for the Association to continue func- tioning. "This," Mr. Annear sug- gested, "could very easily be dcne by repayment of this guarantee eve" a period of five years. and by so doing the Governmert would no: be advancing any money but would give the Association an oppzrtunlty to work itself out of its pr:sent fin- ancial difficulties At th resent

. ¢ p .

time many hundreds a-re legally responsible for ih‘s liability, and they would be equally so at the end |01 the five years, or at any time

vause any of the taxpayers' moneys* If sufficient time were 8W€!\. HUC careful attention to detail taken, the Association should bo able tl liquidate its liabilities in a. reason.- able time.

Ml. J. J.-LAIABIS '_

Mr. J. J. Larabee, who followed

Mr. Wigmore ln the debate, ex- pressed satisfaction that the Mac- Millan Government had received more recognition from Ottawa in’ the matter of subsidy il1C¥`€B-5€l- The increase under the White Com- mission dld not compare, he said, with what the Bennett Government. by its policies, had taken out of tix? Province. He instanced the sales tax, sugar tax, income tax and other Dominion taxation measures. He figured that $150,000 in sales lax had been obtained. which amounted to the While Commission annual in- crease. ,

Unemployment conditions, he be-

lieved were not improving. There were a great many on relief. Farm prices in commodities such as pota- toes, turnlps andvcattle werelower this year than last.

Mr. Mclntyre: "One cow in Cal-

gary sold for 9 cents."

Mr. Larabec: "In my district I

think there are people who SOL 165| than that."

1-Ie cited low prices obtained in

certain cases which were very much under the cost of production. Wool prices, he snid, had also decreased notwithstanding that textile manu- facturers ore doing very well., The great spread between the price of hides and the price of leather, boots, harness, etc., was emphasized at length. _

The present Opposition loader, Mr.

Larabee said, had tapped a new source of revenue in thc Domicilcd Companies Act. A xmiinlanci paper had quoted s. Conservative member as mentioning another source of revenue in going out and killing skunks for a living.

Potato Grading

II: did not think the people

sh;;..u he asked to grade fancy r0- tatoes unless they ill* H UCCWT Drift than they are getting at present He cited instances where good quality potatoes arc produced in sandy soil but where lhc size is noi large. _

He recalled thc 1930 campaign

against tlie Liberals on the n_-airy question. At that time inc dairy cow was a. great asset: iiow_she is n. great responsibility. he sind. 'Thi Conservatives had promised to shui out New Zealand butter, `»ut they had failed io implement their pledge.

Evening Session

- Resuming the debuts lost evening Mr. Larabee again reviewed the fed- eral sales and income taxes. The Mags Buying Commission, he said, had been paid $32,581.86 and one man for his services rccoived 8115 I day plus $15 ii. (lay for expenses. This was thc nmouiit a farmci would receive for a cm-load of pota- toes. Mr. Stevens, who had instiga- ted the enquiry, had been “called cf!" for issuing a pamlmlet WNCI1 the Prime Minister said was un- ethical and untrue.
