OTTAWA. Feb. 6 - fCPi -- RCP- rcsentatives of the provincial gov- ernments have been asked to meet. with federal authorities here Feb. 20 to discuss such things so the dlvtsinii of financial responsibility for civilian defence. Defence Min- ister Claxton said last night in- the Commons.

The Provinces. he said. have og- reed that the agency for action in civil defence must be the local mun- icipal authority. But one question of concern is the division of finan- cial responsibility for special equip- ment needed by civil defence urg- aiiizations.

An-aitgemcnte were being made for co-ordination of civil defence activities with the United States. Maj.-Gen. G. R. Pearkea. V. 0. (PC -- Nanaimo) later suggested that civil defence might better he hnndled by sonte other Minister since Mr. Claxton already was bur- dened with the heavy responsibil- ities of his own department.

Gen. Pearkes said the country would make "no real progress” in civil defence until the provinces and the municipalities knew how much of the cost was going to be borne by the federal government and what their share would be.

Ch'town C.Vf.L Monthly Meeting

The Februisry meeting of Char- lottetown sub-division C. W. L.. which was held last evening. was of exceptional interest. featuring as it did very Rev. Alexander Mc- Lellan. C.Ss.R.. Rector of the Church of the Most Holy Redeem- er. as guest speaker.

Mrs. Lorne L. Noonan. the president. was in the chair and prayer wa.s recited by the director. Rev. P. F. McDonald. Following iilie piano rendition of "0 Can- ada". by Miss Marion Dougan. the spcaker was introduced by the Reverend Director. who expressed appreciation of the presence of Father McLe1lan. and the privilege accorded the members of the sub- division in having him address them. at a time. when as the new- ly appointed rector of the Re- demptorist Ohurch. man-y duties crowded the moments every day. The speaker. who. incidentally is a native of Inverness. Cape Breton. thanked the League for nheginviiation to address the meet-

ing. The subject chosen was along the lines of character building.

and the various influences in de- veloping it. Speaking of the pro- gress of science during the past years. he said our forefathers would be aghast at the progress of the modern scientific world, for instance. radio. the harnessing of electricity. etc. He deplored the misuse of some fihirigs in science. There was something wrong in iihe application of these discover- ies. Moral progres has not kept in step with physical progress. Character. said the speaker, must not be confused with per- 50Yl3lll)'- its basic qualities must be through a life lived accord- ing to Christian principles and Rood cizhics. The various influ- cnces to develop character were cited. the factor of heredity and its tendencies. environment. with its influence for good, or vice. versa. education in the acquiring of good habits. which become automatic through practice. Speaking of the training of the .V0lII'i8. he noted the tendency of today to make everything smooth 4-to learn without effort. the grow- ing up as it were. without any idea of discipline. This latter must be exercised from the earliest years of the child. if character is to be Flilhtly developed.

Pcople. he said. were reluctant to change habits of thinking. but even though matured. the mind should not be closed to the pro- gress of one's own personality. Investigators have proved that adults. who have the ambition and the moiive of attaining strength of character. can develop person.

OTTAWA Feb. 7 - Nitiety-three per cent of the officers and men serving in the destroyer H. M. C. S.

Nootka, which recently joined United Nations naval forces in Korean waters, are from the six

eastern provinces of Canada. ac- cording to figures released today by Naval Headquarters.

Of the 255 officers and men serv- ing in the ship. 231 were shown asv coming from Ontario. Quebec. Newl Brunswick. Nova scotia. Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland. This was attributed to the fact that the navy. insofar as possible. as- signs non-officer personnel whose homes are in Eastern Canada to East Coast ships and establish- ments. The Nootka was based at Halifax before being despatched VJ the Far East.

Figures based on the home ad- dresses given on enlistment show that 134. more than half the ship's company. came from cities and towns in Ontario. Nova scotia has the next largest representation with 48, and many of the married men from all provinces have since made their homes in Halifax, Dart- mouth or other communities near the East Coast naval base.

Of the remainder. 2'! are from

Quebec. 24 from New Brunswick. eight from Newfoundland. eight from British Columbia, five from Saskatchewan. the same number from Prince Edward Island. three from Alberta. and two from Mani- toba.

Centennial Of N. S. Emigration To New Zealand

By J. C. Grniism Canadian Press Correspondent AUCKLAND. N. Z.. Feb. 6 -

fCPi-while Scots in Nova Scolia are preparing this year to com- memorate the ccnicnary of the departure of highland settlers for the southern domiuions. the peo- ple of Wnlpu here are raising

money for a ntenioriul to the settlers who founded the town in 1853.

Wnipu. centre of a thriving farming district in the Norihcri? peninsula of New Zealatid, is siil largely inhabited by descendants of the Scottish pioneers who sail- ed under Rev. Norman McLeod from Nova. Scotia a century ago.

To mark the centenary. the people of waipu will crectamus- cum and rest room in the centre of the town. It will he a building of the kind the sctilcrs huilt dur- ing their .10-year sojourn in Nova Scotin. The walls will be of lime- stone. the roof of grey stats and at one end will be a broad fire- place with the crane. cauldron and fire-dogs which the house- wife of the lime knew so well.

In the building will be dncii- mcnis. photographs and Chaiicls brought by the settlers. Ulltici photographs of the six original ships. which the settlers built in Nova Scotia-the Margaret. Highland Lass.Breadalbanc. Geri- rudc. spray and Ellen Lewis-will

he the names of ilic travellers and their descendants. Also kept in a roll of honor will be the

names of tlinse who have died in the wars. Films of the centenary ycelchrations will bring the mus- cuni's record of 100 years up to date

Doughty Pioneer

The history of the pioneers is largely the history of Rev. Nor- man McLeod. who in 1817 dis- agreed with the Church of Scot- land and left with his friends for Nova Scoiia. Therc they lived for so years and among them his word was law.

At the age of 71 he led his people on again in Australia and later to New Zealand. In August of this year the Scots who stay- cd in Nova Scotla will commem- orate the departure of the first ship. the Margarenfrcn-i st. Ann's Harbor. It is expected that rep- resentatives of the people of waipu will attend.

The Scotsdid not find Australia to their liking and early in 1853. the first H0 landed at Waipu. BY 1860. 867 had arrived. Waipu will thus ccntcnary of the New Year. 1953. over tor the celebrations scotin. They plan as part of the commemoration to TPTIPW links with their kin who remain- ed in Nova scotia.
