FRIDAY, APRIL 4., 1930

His Ninety-second Today the grand old Journalist of the Confederation Parliament, Mr. J.

B. B. McOready, celebrateshis ninety- eccond birthday. Until quite recently

he has been busy with his pen help- ing to mould public opinion and commenting on public affairs; and even though now confined to bed he

‘keenly follows political and other

happenings discussing them with journalistic colleagues and friends. The Guardian's sincere wish is that today will be the plecsantcst and happiest of all his many anniversar- fu, which have come to be oi almost national importance.

Giving His Deputy Arvay

It is difficult to find parliamentary language to express one's opinion of the present members sitting in "the seats of the mighty" here. A certain British Government was once claimed to be “a Government of all the tal- en Perhaps the Saunders’ aggre- gation may flttingly be described as

and gravely reprehensible.

But what are we to think oi a Premier and Minister of Alfleulturo who deliberately seek to mislead the public es was done in the case of the Technical School equipment?

Premier Saunders declared that $10,000 worth of the finest equipment was made away wlth-"scattered to the four winds." The lidlnlstcr of Agriculhrlepllr‘. Let. endorsed thi". allegation by hearty applause.

The Opposition called for an in- vestigation by the Agricultural Com- mittee, consisting of Mr. Lea, Chair- man, m. J. n. Stewart, Mr. Peter Sinclair, Mr. Bruce ab Mr. hfcLean, there also being present Mr. McLure. Deputy Minister Boulter and Deputy Minister Mcllflllan were called as wit-

the Budget the Opposition members disclosed the result of the investiga- tion, which completely nullified the Premier's charges and Mr. Lee's en- dorsation thereof.

The examination of Mr. Boulter, as pointed out very effectively by Mr. McLure, showed that there was $2,000 worth of dairy equipment on the in- venlory; part of this was used to equip a dairy room now at the Agrioulturafiiall; some was sold to cheese and butter factories, and the balance loaned to smaller factories by way of assistance.

The big electric motor was loaned, sold or given to the Grass eecd Grow- ers Association.

The $1,000 worth oi furniture was is now in use, in the Provincial Building. the surplus being at Faloonwood Hospi-

Evidently Mr. Lea is one of those gentlemen who does not care whom he injures, so long as he can save his own hide.

A False Insinuation

Isitapoorcrsnhat oeedstobe bolstered, up by misrepresentation and abuses During his remarks on the budget the other day, Mr. P. A. Bcully, Liherul representative for Fifth Kings, stated that the Con- servative press "seemed to 81°17 111

strike on our hands." This lnslnuationI

is as contemptible as it is false and misleading. The Conservative PNSS. realizing the seriousness of the sltu» ation last. spring, appealed to thi Saunders Government to meet it; squarely and sincerely. Had the Gov-

would have been confidence instead of suspicion and distrust on the part of the teachers, and the threatened crisis would never have arisen. Far from "glorying" in the situation, Tho Guardian, on March 28th last, at the first friendly gesture of the Govern- menfrccnveyedbythePremlerinll circular letter to the indlvlduall teachers, expressed the hope that wise counsels would prevail and that the teachers would be persuaded by their executive to accept the Gov- ernment's much delayed olive branch. ft was then nearly a year since the Teachers Federation had waited 119011 the Government and asked for fav- orable consideration of the salary question and were rudely told to “go to Mr. Stewart, the leader of the Op- position." On the very same day on which The Guardian editorial ap- peared, a delegation of the Teachers Federation waited upon the Govern- ment, and retired after a brief and heated discussion at which no agree- ment could be reached. Aiter a con- ference of the executive of the Fed- eration an open letter to the teachers of Prince Edward Island was issued by the Federation for publication, which contained the following state merits:

"Willing to go to the second mile, a. committee from your execuive ap- proached the Government in an honest endeavor to effect an ami- cable settlement, and held g um. ference with them on Thursday aitemoon, March 28th. Our dele- gatlon strongly urged the appoint- ment of a board oi conciliation which would immediately remove l-hfl problem from the realm of petty politics and prejudice and b11118 it before an ‘ dependent commission from the Federal De- partment of Labor and _ give an honest adjustment to the people of the province.

“When all eight members present of the Government's executive ab- solutely refused to consider this proposition, your committee. still hopeful of settlement, urged the appointment of an independent commission of three persons, one to

represent the Government, one the Federation, and to be presided over by some prominent educatlonalist oi e neighboring pl oe. The Government would agree to noth- ing but a commission oi their own choosing, at their own time and pleasure whose findings might or might not be accepted by them."

necessary to issue to its members against being the tools of unscrupul- ous outside brokers in helping bo- waros defrau“ many lnflwm‘ people. '

Of recent months these share- pushers have been reinforcing their argument in favour of people buying the aliases by long telegrams and even telephone calls.

Meanwhile they have been PNPB!" ing the market by artificially creat- ing some activity in the shares, the price movements being invariably up- wards with a view to making a good impression.

The public buys the shares; the share-pushers sell them; the market becomes dry; the public is left with a worthless share for which there is a nominal quotation and which it is difficult to get rid of.

It is surprising that these bucket- shops should eumesh so many peo ‘ ple who really believe that the advice is sincere.

The public should bear in mind that members of the Stock Exchangc|

The Council of the National Farm- ers‘ Union of Great Britain has made an urgent appeal to the British Gov- ernment to guarantee 55 shillings a quarter, compared with a present price of 38 shillings, for all home- grown wheat this year. molar-mere have also demanded legislation to set up a system of guaranteed remun-
