C. C. F. Member Ur- ges Canada Accept Reasonable Number Of “Victims.”

CYITAWA. Jan. l8 —-(CP) — A plea. for the admission of a rea- sonable number of persecuted Eu- ropean refugees to Canada and a protest against the dissemination of Nazi-inspired anti-semitlc pro- pagada in this country were voiced in the House of Commons today by M. J. Coldwell (C. C. F. Rosetown ~ Bigger), speaking in the debate on the Speech from the Throne.

Many people talked about stop- ping Communist propaganda. he said. but no one gav-e attention to Nazi propazanda which was spread- ing seeds of discord among Can- adians. Canada weut on expmting nickel and chromium to Germany on most-favored nation terms while the victims of Nazi tenor were denied admission to this country.

"Today." he said. “The victims of Fascist and Nazi terror cry aloud to all civilized people for ccn- siderafon and for aid and I am wonfcrlpg vs"‘at Calladnls response is going to b: to that cry. Pro- Nazi ripper» printed in (‘oracle an"! Pro Nazi literature printed in Germany and. widely circulated in Canada arc trying to poison us with anti-scmiiic propaganda."

Canada. could not open its doors to all who sought admission in the present state of unemploy- merlt and agricultural depression. But Canadian people were warm- hearted and had an opportunity to show their human-itarianlsm. "We are urging.” he said. “that. the Prime Minister take the House into his confidence and say whether this country will re- ceive —llot a large influx, un- regulated, of the victims, because there are 1.5410000 cf them -but that we in this country in com- mcn with other democratic peo- ples will take our fair quota. of those who are suffering from ter- ror ln central Europe."

Complete removal of the three- per cent excise tax from all im- ports was urged bv R. J. Deach- man (Lib Huron North) as a cun- =tructive measure to llPlD employ- ment. Under the United States

grade Treaty the tax is to remov-

from commodities mentioned in

Tile Dominion Government was at fault for not enforcing the law and stopping construction of the works. ‘Fae Oriario Govern-

m"nt was at fault for proceeding

with them in the law.

In any casc. he said. the works had been built and remained idle. He hoped they would continue idle and stand as an exhibit of governmental folly.

c. BE Policy Was Approved

In a discussion on the refusal of C B. C. to lease the national net- work to Mr. George McCullagh.

Mr. Mackenzie King recalled the House had had a standing com- mittee on radio broadcasting for the past two sessions, and that the repcrt of that committee had been accepted unanimously by the House after reviewing the policies of the corporation last Year,

"All members of this House had the opportunity last year cf con- sidering the policies of the Radio Broadcasting Corporation," the Prime Minister said, "and I wish to read just one or two paragraphs from the report of the radio ‘arcad- casting committee which was sub- mitted to this House and carried unanimously. which report approv- ed these very policies designed to see that radio broad-casting, as car- ried on by this corporation. should be so conducted that there would be equal opportunity for all con- cerned, regaldlrss of their par- ticular circumstances one way or the other."

Mr. Denton Massey (Con. Tor- onto-Greenwcod) interrupted to say it was not. the regulations but their interpretation which was causing the difficulty.

Mr. Mackenzie King then de- clared the Government's agr ment to reappointment of radio committee this ' rlev'ew the whole radio situation. "What I want to point out. Mr. Speaker, is that as far as radio broadcasting in CFlMlO. is concern- ed, when this Pariiamenk has put the whole business into he hands of a. broadcasting corporation. it seems to rne that we as members of this House in our public or, pncitv ought to support the cor- poration in seeking to make rules which will cause radio broadcast- plg throughout this coup to show avors to none buteoue ‘mime!!! and opportunity to all," Prime

UITAWA. his. l0 —(OP)-'!‘bs improvement in the social and e- ‘ conditions of those Mari- time communities where Co- operative Credit Unions have been established was em here today by Prof. A. B. nald, St. Francis Xavier's Unlve , Antiserum. N. B. A pioneer in th activity and one of the maln- spnngs in its development, Prof. MacDonald spoke to members of the Parliamentary Press Gallery.

The work had been started ln 1980 as a program of adult edu- cation ancl origlnall took the form of creating st clubs, or- ganized to consider community problems. An initial total cf 200 clubs had now increased to 2,500, distributed throughout the Marl- tithes.

As the movement developed it was linked with a program of action aimed at improving social and economic conditions. Credit unions were begun. To these the people brought their savings. their nickels and quarters. ‘The accumulated savings were applied to loaning back to members of the community such funds as were necessary to carry out work of a productive nature.

A total of four unions with savings of $30 in 1932 had now increased to 3B0 with savings a- mcuntlng to more than $900,000. said Prof. MacDonald. The loans

Rockgardenlng h, I think. well urldovrwoyinthehovincqondflic cult of rook-gardening is grow-ins. There is another kind of garden- ing which rrllght well be associated with the rook and that is the

culture of squat lants, of which we have a aha-rolling variety na- tive to our Island. have heard

of two attempts to water- gardiens: one at Southport and the other somewhere in the Vernon. River district. if my memory serves me well. I admit there are diffi- culties to be overcome in attempt- ing this form of gardenllm. but here is how a Toronto marl over- came them. .

Mr. H. B. has a city backyard l6 feet wide and 140 feet long; rather an awkward shape to do anything with. By chance, about eight years ago, Mr. B. bolkilht three hardy water-lilies, and made a small pool for them. They wintr ered perfectly, to his great sur- prise, and he was able to take off shoots from them in the hiring. With these and some new variety that he purchased. he stocked a. new pool. Every year there was further expansion, and last year he ha varieties of water-lilies growing. and doing it well, in a dozen tanks totalling 600 square feet of vlater surface.‘

Mr. B. made many discoveries in connection with his hobby, and he freely puts them before the public. The first is that growing

had been used to free the p901)!!! from debt. put them on a cash has!" and into a position of fin- ancial independence.

Scientific marketing of primary products had been the next ad-l vance. and Prof. MacDonald cited lpstam-"s where, hy application of co-operative methods, consid- arable economics had been effect- ed. Side bv side with these had grown consumers‘ co-operlltlves, of which there were now 42 doings business valued at more than $3,- 000000 annually.

The result of this mobilization of the people's own effo was the setting up of better standards of living. and also a raisins of cultural standards. 'I‘hey had been given a new vision. and had de- v"‘"\ed a finer sense of responsi- bility.

‘When people concern them- selves with the lnbs they are do- ing," said Prof. MacDonald. "'I'lrcy have no time to think of the more radical ideas floating around them."

Tile speaker noted the compar- ison between those communities that urere thriving by virtue of est-operative efforts and others which had not yet adopted them. Th" comparison was all in favor of the former.

Snow Conservation For Vegetables t

(Experimental Fklnn-News) Prairie bllzzards deposit irregular drifts of snow inside the IBM-en shelter of trees. Ovservlng that only a portion of the garden area was covered at the Dcmlnitrl Ex- perimental Station at Scott. Sask, it was planned to determine the ef- fect of the snow conservation of vegeta-bles. states G. D. Matthews. the Superintendent of the Station. Accordingly. the same varieties of certain vegetables were gown where drifts accumulated and where the land was swept bare of snow by strum: winds. when snow drifts accumulate in early winter on level cultivated land, there is usually no frmen ground beneath and the snow water soaks into the ground except in a rare spring of rapid thawing.

The first observation was a more uniform stand of vegetables where snow accuim . All parts of the plant indicaed more rapid imrwth. particularly in a dry season. The enla root development en- abled the plant to more fully util- ize rains which may be received nurluz the slimmer on the prairie. Tenderness and quality of the vegetable are Rreatlv improved bv the continuous growth with ade- quate moisture. Where snow wat- er oenetratedflvields have been in- creased three to ten tim , de- pendlnv on the class of vegetable. The effects are always greatest when spring and summer precipita- tions are scanty. Adequate snow cover guarantees a crop of quality vegetables in the sheltered prairie

‘Ihls mgvests that title whole garden would be improved if there was snow conserved all over the area. Accordinglv. a sncw plou/zh was designed to ridge the snow be- fore drifting takm place. In fact. extensive tests are being made by this procedure to determine the effect of snow conservation for field crops. A blue print and con- struction details of a. workable snow plough for fields rnrw be ob- tained bv writing to the Dcminlon Evpev-im-ntel station.

No member of the Government had anv inlowledge of the apoli- catlon being made for use of a national network by Mr. McCul- lagh, and no member of the Gov- ernment krew anything about an application being refused until they say it in the press, he said.

‘May we have the assurance the Government will stand behind the corporation?" arrived Mr. J. S. Wordsworth. C. O. I". leader.

"Yes. I think so," Mr. Mackenzie King said. -

watenlllies is the perfect hobby for the busy man. They need no weeding, hoeina, watering, or spraying; and they are protected against enemies by the crystals of calcium oxalate in their stems. and tannin in their roots.

Mr B. did not make anv ex- cavations: he used tanks of gal- vanized iron. made to his own d-e- sign, and soldered nt.the corners. They are eighteen inches deep. and rest on the ground, but could be sunk to give a more natural cf; ct. They are further surrounded by an lncloslnsr frame work of two- by-fours, and between these and the tanks are planted low-crowing plants like P"Y‘iillF"Til5, making a bright border to the pools, No drairarre is rcquirrd. for the lilies like old water; in fart some of the water ls three years old. kept clean by the activitics cf ‘Zfldflsh. snails. etc. Evaporation is remedied by rainfall. and occasionally by use of the garden hose.

All waterlilies do best if they winter naturally; taking up the roots and keeping them ln the cel- lar is extremely risky, and more plants are lost in this kind of stor- age than in any other way. If the lilies must be moved for fear of frost injury, it is better to dig a three-feet-deen trench. into which the bCx of lily-roots is placed, and the trench filled in again.

Mr B. plants his waterliiies in wooden boxes containing about a cubic foot of compost; and the compost is two-thirds good clav loam plus one-third well-rotted cow manure. I‘ is gccd plan to put a- bout a halfinch cf gravel on top. to prevent the soil working up. When the boxes are sunk in the tanka there are eight inches of water over them. Water surface of two feet souare is needed for small species of llll$s and six feet square for the larger forms.

In the fa‘l the fish and snails are removed. and in November the. pools are covered with boards. and a layer of leaves and straw is pil- ed over them to a depth of two feet. with brush on other materiel to hcld it down. (The lilies. I should have said. are left undis- turbed.) Early in April the covering is removed: later. the fish are re- placed, and by earlv May the first buds are showing.

There are many varieties of these lilies on the market now. a few of which may be noted. Gonnere (large), Marilee, Albatross, and

resident Roosevelt, white;

hromatella, a small dainty chrome yellow; while Rose Magnolia and Colossea ere pink.

NOTES ON ISLAND PLANTS The Jlmcaginaceae.

‘There ls a small family of two genera. and only one species has been noted here. It is the Arrow Gram, 'I‘riglochin nlaritima Linn. It is a plant of the salt marshes, with erect, tel-eta, leaves, very nar- row, and with oblong fruit of six separable carpeis. It would be un- scientific to say it is of no use; it grobalbly goes to feed some in-

abltant of the marsh. it has ‘however. a remarkably wide range being found on the coasts of Eur- ope into the Arctic; in North Af- rica; in the salt districts of Asia; and in Australia. and North Am- erica. It has never been found in the Grecian peninsula.

THE ALISMACEAE

Under this heading we have two lants, the Broad-l-eaved Arrow- ead, and the Water‘ Plantain. The Arrow-head. Sagittaria lati- folia Willd; has many varieties or forms, but all ow in water or wet places, an have attractive white flowers. It was first men- tioned as sduclrlfood by the pforers Lewis and Clark in 1001-6. who found niunberless wild fowl in the Columbia valley feeding on it. The local names "duck poto-izo" and "swan potato" to the tuberous roots. Parts of this plant have been found in the chs an. """3§F; s“ ‘ Med . n ' iis-boclrs. "Blue- lls."
