Edward island wge appreciat- ive of the efforts of Mr. Distan- baker and stated, "His desire to visit all parts of Canada assurea us that he is no ivory tower politician."

Dr. W.J.P. MncMlllan support- ing Mr. MacDonald's thanks, said in all his political career. he had never attended a more successful convention. The Doctor said that already Mr. Dlefenbnke in making a name for himself among the countries of the world, and predicted that he would go down in history as the greatest Prime Minister Canada had ever had.

Dr. MacMillan said he felt very close ties with Mr. Dlefenbslter because of the fact that his younger brother Allan had at- tended university with the Prime Minister and later went overseas with him where the brother was later killed.

'I want to thank Mr. Diefen-

MacMillan. "I want to thank him for making Angus MacLean a Minister and for sending Heath Macquarrie to the United Nat- ions. You carried the Common- wealth and walked out of that conference the biggest man in the British Empire."

JUSTICE OVERDUE

"We know that you will grant to Prince Edward Island the justice which has been long over- due Prince Edward Island and the Maritime: by that stupid de- cision made in 1930 when the northern lands or Canada were given to six priivinces without any allowance being made for the other three provinces."

Heath Macquarrie. M.P. said the Prime Minister had shown his fondness for Prince Edward island hy making his third visit within a year and added, "We in Prince Edward Island have shown our fondness for him as seen in the election results of June 10."

Dr. Orville Phillips, M.P. pre dlcted that Mr. Diefenbaker would be Premier of Canada for a long time to come. He express- ed regret that Mr. Bell had step- ped down from the leadership of the party. He recalled that Mr. Bell had led the Party when its fortunes were not po good but asserted that the foundation Mr. Bell had laid were respon- sible for what had taken place last night.

Huge Convention

assured party members that his efforts would be limited only by his physical and financial re sources to do everything he could for the Party.

He took note of the transport- ation bottleneck which he said was apparent at Borden where he counted 198 vehicles lined up waiting for the boat. He under- stood that at certain times there were as high as 324 vehicles waiting for the boat.

ADVOCATE! CAUSEWAY

He felt it high time that a causeway was placed across the straits and recalled the Borden Governemnt had given the Island the first great link in fulfilling the terms of Confederation and predicted it would be the Dictap- baltcr Government that would give the second.

He reviewed briefly the farm situation. education the provinc- iai debt and the filhnrica of the province. He felt there was no reason why if the people showed themselves worthy of the trust that the Conservative Govern- ment could not be elected at the next provincial elcctiob.

"in his two years in the Leg-

islature", Mr. MacNeil continu- ed. "he has proven his ability. His debates on Education. Public Health, Agriculture. and Public Works have made known to all that he has abundant knowledga of the needs of the people of P. El. and the courage to use that knowledge for the good of the people.. His insight into the fin- antts of the Province after such a short time in the Legislature enabled him to act as financial critic in the House at numerous times to the servcre embarasn- ment of the government." Mr. Lloyd Martin. Cherry Val- ley, who seconded Dr. Dewar'a nomination warned the assembly that the"poiltical future of the province would not be determin- ed here in the Coliseum but around thousands of provincial firesides. and in the ballot boxes at the next election."

PROPOSES MR. SHAW

In proposing Mr. Shaw as a candidate for party leadership, Summerslde's Henry Wedge slat- ed that the first step to be taken on the road to power and the responsibility of government is ”to choose our leader... and we must choose wisely.”

"Walter Shaws' name ii 3 household word among old and young in practically every home. both rural and urban." he said, ”he knows the vast majority of our citizens personally, has giv- on addresses in almost every gathering place throughout the province and his voice has al- ways commanded attention and respect."

"Mr. Shaw is still in his sixties, not so far behind the age of our Federal leader. Mr. D ' P L cr,' Mr. Wedge continued, "and

P. E. I. Historical Society Ex. Hold: Meeting

A regular meeting of the Ex- ecutlve of the Prince Edward island Historical Society was held on Monday evening In till chamber: of Mr.Justlce ILL. Palmer. President, and plana for the fall and winter were discussed. , The President reported that he and Chief Justice Campbell accompanied by Major McNutt and Mr. F.A.S. Jones but recent- Iy met Mr. J.O. llyndman at the Port La Joie site on the liitier'a farm at Rocky Point and in- spected the remains of Fort Amherst overlooking the mouth of Charlottetown Harbour. All felt that the condition and his- tory of the Fort warranted its preservation as an historic site. its ideal situation and the top- ography of the Burroundlng area called for its .1: elopment as a national historic park. The Chief Justice, as the member from thin Province on the Historic Sites and M uments Board. was greatly impressed with these possibilities for the site and baa had such a proposal placed on the agenda for the next meeting of the Board. Various members of the Ex- ecutive cited instances of the confusion that prevails among tourists in finding the Confeder- ation Chamber. Unfortunately, the new building for our Post Office and other departments of government has been named the Confederation Building. which name, excellent in itself. is con- fusing to the stranger who de- sires to see the room in which Canada was born and which has always been known as the Con- federation -Chamber. It is to be iwhed that something may be done to overcome this :-ituation. The sale of the Society”-; pub- lications - Historic Highlights and Historic Sldellghts- has been good, and a large number of the booklets were purchased by tourists during the summer.

it is anticipated that the an- nual meeting of the Society will be held in October and Mr. Earl Taylor, Major T.E. McNutt. ana Mr. Lorne Cnllbeck were ap- pointed to make the necessary arrangements for such a meet- lng.
