Ry. Chairman

(C. P. By Guardian’: special Wire)

OTTAWA. June b——A charge of disloyalty against Judge Fullerton, chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Canadian National Railways, was hurled across the floor of the House of Commons today by Rail- way Minister Howe.

The minister, usually soft-spoken and hesitant, almost shouted his charge while Conservatives ribbed him for relying on petty gossip and unfounded rumors for substi- tilting a board of directors for the three trustees.

"As long as this government is responsible for the Canadian Ne- tionsi Railways and its operations we want a management at the head that is loyal to this government." declared the Minister. "Now. I can tell the members of this House that since this government tool: omce the chairman of the railway has spent more time in Ottawa in the offices of members of the late gov- ernment than he has in the offices of the present government."

The railway bill passed third reading without division and was sent to the Senate for its concur- rence. It passed after the Minister announced the government would look with favor on an agreement negotiated between the railways and their employees for compensation to be paid when men were tossed out of jobs by pooled services.

A. A. Heaps (CC'F-Winnipeg North) moved an amendment pro- viding men should be compensated when their jobs were abolished by pooled services and, if necessary boards appointed to arbitrate claims.

The Heaps amendment was ruled out oi order by Deputy Speaker Sanderson but the minister said he had hopes an amicable agreement would be reached by negotiations which. in his Judgment, was better than legislation.

‘'1 think it (an agreement) will be worked out in the not fs.r-dls- tsnt future by the men and the raliws.ys,’! Mr. Howe said. Has an- nounced he recently told a deputa- tion of railwaymen to open negotla. tiers with the companies and if no. cessary legislation would be passed next session validating the Agree- ment.

The Minister's charge against Judge Fullerton threw the House into a general turmoil Vith Con- servative Leader Bennett on his feet, declaring it a most serious charge which should be substantia- ted.

There were yells and shouts from the Liberals, prompting the con- servative leader to tell them may were not assisting in passing the legislation.

“Wu understand what our duties Mr. Bennett said. "and we propose to discharge them. It may take the rest of the summer to get to the bottom of this matter but we will get to the bottom of it."

But, as far as the Conservative leader was concerned. it did not take the nest of the summer. First he denied that Judas Fullerton had been in his ofllcc or thst he had

Then followed four members of the Bennett administration. Hon. 0. H. Cshsn, Sir George Pericy, Hon. Hugh Stewart and Hon. Grate Stirling with the some sort of de. niald. None of them had talked with Judge Fullerton in Ottawa. al- though we had met him in a club and nodded greeting.

That ended the scene with the Minister neither elaborating or withdrawing his charge although the House was in a. bed temper for an hour afterward.

The verbal fireworks started ear- ly in the afternoon when Mr. Oa- han charged the minister could not point to one concrete example of bad management by the railway trustees. The minister merely re- lied on gossip and idle rumor in- stead of determining by evidence his charges against the trustees.

This drew Finance Minister Dim- ning lnto the discussion, He told the Conservatives they no longer were sitting on the treasury bench- es nor running the government. "With the best motives we believe we have a mandate from the peo- ple of Canada to change the sys- tem which the previous adminis- tration put into effect," he szld.

Tendency of Maritime Governments to Re- lax Liquor Laws De- plored At United Church Conference.

(C. P. by Guardian's special Wire)

SACKVILLE. N. 13.. June 5- Protcst against alleged general tendency of Maritime Govern- ments to increase facilities for procuring intoxicating liquors was made in the report on evangelism and social service presented this afternoon at the Maritime con- ference of the United Church.

“As a. Church we should put more life into the resolutions on temperance we have been passins for twenty years," said Dr. H. R. Grant. secretary of the social ser- vice Councii and Temperance Ai- liance of Nova Scotia. "We must work to rid our province of a type of legislation that is demoralizing to the people of our generation."

The report expressed apprecia- tion of action by the New Bruns- wick Government in refusing leg- islation to permit the sale of beer and wines in hotels and restaur- ants.

Many forms of gnmbling con- stituted one of the greatest men- aces today, said the report, em- phasizing that all gambling was out of harmony with the Christ- ian view of life. .

Adult Education

The adult education movement received commendation. and pres- byteries were urged to mcoiiratle this by practical measures.

Dr, C. H. I-Iuestis. Toronto. gen- eral secretary of the Lord's Day Alliance of Canada. set forth the vital value of the Lord's Day to the social, moral and religious life of all communities.

He referred to "subtle forces" invading the SilCl‘€‘dflQ$S of the day or rest and worship, and to en- couraging services being rendered by many influential forces in church and state. “Sunday is sup- remely a day for the cultivation of the higher and better thinks of life." said Dr. Hucstls.
