Sir Stafford stressed. as he did that

ng. The only contract he specifically

referred to as unaffected by the cuts is the Canadian wheat agree- ment, which calls for delivery of

40,000,000 bushels during the 949-50 crop year at $2 a bushel.

He called this an "important ex- ception" — important to Britain since this large amount of. wheat will have to be paid for in dlollarl.

"We have decided to work on

han ‘rs per cent. of our imports

from the dollar area in 1948." Sir Stafford said.

"These imports in i948 amount-

ed to about £400.000,000 (SIMIL- 000,000) and we are thus working on the assumption that we shall not be able to afford to dollar goods at a rate of more than '15 per cent‘ or fZS00.000.000."

The ‘following article by Mr. Willard de Lue, travelling editor of the Boston Daily Globe, ap- peared in that newspaper on July 8, and will be read with much local interest:

CHARLOTTETOWN. P. E. I.- This morning I picked up the phone and dialed 1125. A man answered.

"Is this the Lieutenant-Gover- nor's oflicef"

“Yes," said the voice. I guessed that I was talking with one of the secretaries of His Majesty's rep- resentative in the Province of Prince Edward Island.

"ls the Lieutenant-Governor there?" I asked.

"Speaking," said he. for though the representative of the Crown surely must have a secretary, he makes it a practice to answer his own office phone,

So I introduced myself, and suggested thatperhaps he could find a few minutes to give to me.

"l always like to talk to old Bostonisns," I said.

I could hear him laugh.

“How did you know that?" said he. So I told him that I knew his cousin, Greg Wedge. very well.

“That's rightmGreg is with the Globe, isn't he. Come on over. It's just a short walk from where you are."

"You're at Government House?" I asked; for though I had seen the Lieut.-Governor's official resi- dence I wasn't sure that his office was there.

"Yes,"said he. "Come in through the gate. to the front door...and walk right ln."

But I did not have to walk right in. because the Hon. Joseph Alphonsus Bernard had spotted me coming up the drive and was at. the door to greet me.

P. E. 1. ill a really democratic place. and Mr. Bernard is a PEI. man.

O O O

The beautiful old Government House stands in broad grounds that are a part of Charlottetown?» attractive Victoria Park-a har- box-side promenade and recreation place that's only four blocks from the city's business center. The white, lhingled house is big and comfortable-looking. It has been here for more than a century now. resting on a piece of rising ground at the park entrance in a little grove of white birches. Four white pillars support its high portico, on which the arms of the Province are set in a blue field.

"You'll notice that the front of it ls almost like ‘that of the _White House in Washington," Gov. Ber- nard suggested. But Government House sets low, so close to the ground that a step or two gets you up to its entrance; and it has a front porch all along the front of it. which Mr. Truman surely would enjoy.

Gov. Bernard can sit out here of an evening and look down across his front lawn to where the park drive runs down along the shore. Just a little way down it is an earthen rampart on a curving point of land. with a row of old iron cannon set on it, pointing out across the great ex- panse of the harbor-formed by a meeting of the estuaries of three rivers. Fort Edward, this used to be; and the slotted walls of a whitened stone building a few steps from the cannon suggest that it was once a blockhouse or mag- azine, or some. such. thing.

The Lieutenant Governor and I sat in his office in Government House and talked of many things .. but mostly about Boston. where Mr. Bernard lived for nine years. He went there in 189B when he was a young fellow of l7—fresh from the little town of Tignish. of’! st the Island's west end. It is Bernard's home town still-a place of fishermen-farmers. main- ly of the French-Acadian stock of which the Lieutenant-Governor comes.

"You could get to Boston in a day. and for $10 in those times." said he. "Of course you carried your bundle of food with you and you sat up nights. But it was pleasant enough....and there weren't immigration problems. .. so people went and came."

"You came down from Tignlsb by railroad?"

"To the ferry," he said. "The railroad was a narrow gauge one; and the ferry wasn't where it is now. In those days it ran from Summerside acrols to Port de Cherie. New Brunswick. and you took the train to Sheriiae."

"So you got yourself a job in Boston." I suggested. _

"Do you know West Hoxbury he countered; and 1 said that I did

q"

"Did you ever know Rudolph Dunkel who had a bakery in Ros- lindalef" I remembered only the name.

"I used to drive a bakery wag- on for Dunkel," said the Gover- nor. sitting back and getltng a fresh light on his cigar. He smok- es very good ones. and the two of us filled his ofIlce with smoke.

“I'd drive the horse and wagon around all over West Roxbury and on into Germlntown," he re- called. "And ‘then 1'd continue on to Dedham."

O O

Then later on young Bernard got a job with the Elevated. at the old Lennox St. barns in the South End. on Division 2.

“I ran out of Division 2 on the rear end of the cars," said he. ‘(It's just occurred to me that an-

Boston Newsrnan Visits Lieut. Governor Bernard

other P. E. I. man. the dllting. uished United States labor medi- ator, Cyrus Ching, also was a Bos- ton Elevated graduate.)

By 190B Bernard had his till of living in Boston. He returned to his old Island home, got a job in a Tignish store, married and prospered. With a partner he bought the establishment for which he worked-a retail grocery and general merchandlzing bus- iness at Tlgnlsh, which he alone nolw owns. At one time or another he's ‘had hi; own boats in the fisheries, outfitted flshmen, had an interest in timber and a finger in the Island's famous silver fox in- dustry. He was elected to the Provincial Legislature . . . and fin- ally was picked fnr the honor of representing the British Crown.

But he is still at home in Bos- ton. "I gel there often." he tells me, "I have two daughters in Bos- ion—one is Gloria, the other ls married to Dr. Eric Loth. She lives at 295 Lagrange St., in West Roxbury."

His brother, William S. Ber- nard. also has been a resident of Boston for many years. "Used to live on Mission Hill. but now he's on Ainsworfh Sh, Roslindale." It certainly must be like old times when Gov. Bernard gets out in that familial- territory where he used to drive around on his bakery route.

The Bernard daughters in Bos- ton are just two of Governor and Mrs. Bernard's 13 children. Five are with them here at Govern- merit House, some are at Tignish, others in other parts of the Do- minion. Government House could take care of a Bernard family re- union without any trouble. It has about 40 rooms.

"It was built for heating with fireplaces," Mr. Bernard said as lie showed me the old mansion. “They used to have a couple of tremendous stoves in the upper hall..and they'd have to carry the cordwood up there all winter long." There's modern heating now, but ‘the pipes do have to run up through some of the great rooms.

He showed me, too, the big flower gardens, where in August there will be thousands of blos- soms.

“You ought to come back in August," said he.

"If I do I guess I'd have to call on you to get me a hotel room"- for early August is the Island's Old Home Week and rooms are at a premium.

“Well." said he, looking at the big house from where we stood on the lalwn, "I ougiht to be aible to take care, of you all right."

He's s friendly man. the Gov- ernor...and not as sedate as he appears in the picture that; 1'm sending. The picture sort of shows his official fackas it shows his official wing collars. Today he wore a light tan tropical suit. an ordinary white shirt and a color- ful bow tie. He's of medium height, solidly built-—yet not as heavy as the picture makes him.

"Remember me to Greg,“ he yelled, as I went down the drive.

Which 1 hereby do.

There are plain little bath- houses along the sea wall beyond the batteryfwith steps running clown from them to the water. And back of the shore road in all that far end of the park there are white birches, with benches under them, and an unspoiled woodland behind them. Walks run through the birchen groves and a wild green undergrowth, and they lead‘ eventually to a great sports field. complete with a tine cinder track. The whole park probably is no larger than Boston Common. but it is so wooded, and so varied in its character-and the view from it across the harbor to the low green hills full of farmlands and daisy fields and bright white homes is such a broad one-—that the park-seems much larger than it is

One day I was walking in the park. under a row of green trees, near the Governor's hcuse—llme frees. said a man who was cut- ting the grass under them.

I told him how fine a place I thought the park was.

"Yes." said he, stopping for a moment to chat. "It's a pretty place...quiet. The people who crime seem io like if. They ap- preciate it better than the. people hrre do. llere...lt's just the same old thinly.

I've just heard this one about Lt. Gov. Bernard.

A visitor was addressing him as "Your Excellency."

"You shouldn't call me Your Excellency," said the Governor. "The correct title is Your Honor. But if you really want to please me. call me Joe."

And I understand that he's a wonder at the good old game of 45s.

The regular quarterly meeting of the Prince Edward Island Hesby- tery, United Church of Canada, convened Monday, July lith at 10.00 a.m. Rev. RE. Vessey, retir- ing chairman presided at the de- votional period. Mrs. J.D. Mac- Farlane, president of the Women's Missionary Society in P.E.I. was on the platform and took part in the service. Rev. J.M. Sheen gave a very fine address on the subject. "What is a Christian".

Rev. Burton Crowe of Bedeque tool: over his new duties as Secre- tary succeeding Rev. ER. Wood- side. and it became clear as the day went on that Mr. Crows possesses the gifts that make for a good sec- retary. Rev. K0. Sullivan of Surn- merslds was installed as chairman by Mr. Vesey who in a. very grac- ious mariner in behalf of the mem- bers of the Court welcomed the new presiding officer to the Chair.

Rev. T.G. Head was appointed Assistant Secretary and Rev. As, Weir press reporter.

The minutes of last meeting were taken as read. the secretary being authorized to make any necessary corrections.

It was agreed that adjournment be at 12.00 noon and that Court reconvene at 1.15.

It was moved and seconded and carried that visiting ministers pre- sent be lnvited to sit and corres- pond. These included Rev. EM. Alike" 01 Hamilton. Rev. nw. Alt- ken of St. John, Rev. E.C. Evans and Rev. L.G. Marshall. Rev. H.151). Ashford was welcomed as a member of the Court.

The business set‘ down on the docket was then dealt with care- Inllv but with dispatch.

The list of members of the new- 1y fl-Dpfllmed standing committees was read and will appear in the g1. ficial printed minutes.

Mr. WE. Brooks gave a report of the Laymanks ConferencQ held Jilly 8th at O'Leary. Besides a good attendance of. laymen. four minis. ters attended. Rev.- E.C. Evans had Riven a much appreciated paper cn “the need for evangelism".

Mr._Brooks suggested that an as- sociation be formed for each Coun- ly- $2,908. has been raised so far

for the Memorial Fund and the balance of the objective it is anticipated. will ‘be rea.

lized before next General Coun- cil Prvsram in mo. Mr. Mercer stated he would arrange for the showing of films from the journey of Dr. Gilchrist from Halifax to Africa, in any charge requesting same. The afternoon session heard reports from such standing oom- rriittees as had any report ready so early in the Conference year. Rev. P.A. Fitzpatrick for the So- cial Servica and Evangelism Com- mittee urged upon the members of Presbytery the necessity of tak- ing a firm stand against the man- ifest entmoachments of» the gamb- ling evil. within the Province. He recommended that the regulations controlling lotteries be published in the United Churchman. This task was assigned to the S.S. Com- mittee.

A special committee consisting of Mr. Justice Tweedy, chairman, Rev. JR. Skinner and AIS. Weir, reported on a reference from Rev. W.G. Dickson concerning a mat- ter before the Session of Brae con- gregatim. After some discussion clarifying the issue for the Court, the Committee's report was adopt- ed and Mr. Dickson was given ad- vice as to further procedure as he had requested.

The Special Committee dealing with proposed rearrangements of boundaries in the Bideford, Rich- mond Eay East and Wellington areas with a view to saving the services of one minister ln this time of great shortage of mulls- terial manpower, presented its re- port for adoption. As the details for such an arrangement had not been completely arrived at, the re- port was laid on the table till the next meeting of Presbytery in September with the hope that by that time an agreement satisfact- ory to all concerned may be reached,

Lord's Day Alliance Activities

Rev. L.G. Marshall, Secretary for the Lord's Day Alliance was heard with much interest by the Court as he presented the work of the Alliance. This organization. he said represents the united effort of several denominations in Can- ada to preserve for Labor one day in seven as a day of rest from regular work. and the presgirvn- fion for all of the opportunity for public worship. The matter of at- tempts to commercialize sports on 511F153? contrary to Dominion law is deflnltelv brought tn the atten- tion of alleged offenders and if necessary to the authorities. The great objective however is to lay noon the conscience and hearts of the people the necessity for keep- irllt the ‘Lord's Day accm-dlng to Divine Law.

Th" Yvllnwlng resolution was tinanimously adopted by the Court: "Resolved that this preshy- tery continue to show its app“. elation of the work being done bv the Lord's Dav Alliance of Canada In its constant fight against those forces which would undermlng tho Lord's Dav and deprive the peo- ple of Canada of those blessings which come to us from the Day of Rest and Worship.
