Tile Capitol Theatre at Sumlncr- side last night was packed to tllc doors, standing room being at a 'prenliuln,\to hear Hon. R. B. Bcn- nett and Miss Bennett deliver tllc final addresses in their tour of this province. As the visitors entered the hall, they were greeted with a warm welcome in the shape of n hearty and spontaneous burst of applause. As always, Mr. Bennett was in splendid form, and delivered an excellent speech calculated to make every Canadian who loves his home lllld land to ponder well on think on those things that might add to her great- ness. It was very evident that his

He lllildl.‘ graceful allusion to thc many fronl this small province who had made their contribution of brain or brawn to ollr country. Ill this connection, he toucllcd on tlu- way ill which it had been left to the Conservative pal-ty to build a car ferry to maintain continuous steam communication with the mainland. promised at confederation, as also ill standard- izing the railway. ensuring that tllc Island's representation be not less than four-an increase of $100,000 ill thc subsidy. and their attitude

The contract between the optim- tivc Fathers of Confederation as contrasted with thc pessimism of the Liberals of that (lay was ncxi Itouchcd on. Tile Liberals in thc ‘audience were asked to col "dcr iwhat Canada would have been, lad thc Liberals succeeded in carrying their views illto cifcct.

_ Mr. Bennett then treated of thc problems arising from the ncarnr- of our country of llillc million peo- pic to thc United States. a country of 110 million people--—but a mot- ion, whosc government placing al- ways thc lntcrcs s of its own nat- ionals first had uccesslvcly driven our products froln hcr markets b; higher and cvcr higher tariffs. whenever it was found that thcy competed with an American indus- try. Thc speaker illustrated this by many specific examples. Is it not time, thc speaker asked, thllt we dc thc same thing for Canada?

The United States so arrayed hel tolls system that she would not ;allow manufactured goods illto hel ‘ country. but lct down the bar toraw ‘ materials from Canada. they having been prodigal of thcir own rav: materials, which are ill danger oi depiction. They blly our raw mat- erials at n low unit prlcc, and ship thtm back to us at a high lllllt price as manufactured goods. And wc send to their factories our young men and women-the brain and sinew of‘ our nntion—to work in their factories for them.

So as for Canada, we arc buying more and more manufactured goods, and selling less and less of everything—cxcept for raw mater- ials. Mr. Bennett submitted statis- tics in proof of this contention. Our favorable balance of- trade for the last three months has been reversed and we sold in that tho/only 234 million dollars worth of goods. and bought 302 million dollars wortl -—a balance of 1B million dollars against us. This condition, if it continued, would sap away thc heritage lcft in trust to llS by our forefathers. of which we were but life tenants. It ls our duty, hc said. to hand them on unimpaired to our children.

Last year we sold 1220 millions n1 “Loading hogs. lambs and cattle dollars worth of goods, and bougilt

To Visit Canada

LONDON, Aug, 13.-—Sir Austen Chamberlain, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has been order-. cll U; take a era trip fcr the hen:- ilt cf his health. H: hopes to trav- cl tu California by way of the Panllnla Canal, traverse Canada and return to’ England across til-J Atlantic.

Lady Chamberlain, ill authoriz- ing thc unnoullncement, said that dtilnit; arrangements had not been mad: but that the medical advisers believed that the Foreign Szcretary will be suff‘ ntly recovered frolll his scricus ill _'ss to allow him to .-.l:llt llll- tour lute this month.

which was of grcat interest to Is- landers. In 1920 we sold 24 million pounds of butter, where as now we wcle not able to supply our own rc- quirements, but bought last ycar nearly 13 million pounds —as l1 re-i suit of the unfair competition of New Zcaland butter llnder thc ‘Aus- tralian ‘Treaty inaugurated by the present Liberal Government at Ot- tows.‘ And now the dairy industry of Canada is threatened with abso- lute ruin! Is it fall" to ask Canadian dllirymln to compete with a coun- try wllcre they need no farms, ulld can turn their cattle out to graze llll winter.

_ So also with the Iron and Steel industry of Cape Breton-now lll a bad way because of unfair competi- tloll of U. S. Iron and Stcel—unfail~ because, owing to greater produc- tion, their overhead is less than ours.

When Island potatoes are shut out of the United States as seems imminent, think what a market a Pittsburgh in Cape Breton would bc. As to the workers in United States factories-thcir government will sec to it, by suitable tariffs that wc vrolrt feed thcm—they will be fcd by their own farmers.

Under Mr. King's rcgilne: 591,000 people have lcft us for thc United States-our sons and daughters. And to replace tllcln we have only ‘$73,000 entering Canada in thc some period-many of assorted national- ities from the continent of Europe.

"This government ls a good gov- ernment that selflshly cares for Canada," said Mr. Bennettt “And that government is a bad govern- ment that caters to other national- ities. 'I‘hcse people are leaving be- cause therc arc no jobs. And there are no jobs, because we arc buying from other people what wc should be making at home. Ally policy that sends half a million people ollt of Canada in six years should be stopped.“ '

'I'hcrc is a remedy. It is to givc Canadians all cqual opportunity in competition against tllc world. Wc want for Canada what the United States farnlcl" is getting for his po- tatoes and his wheat. and the Ull- itcd States fishermen and manuf turcrs for their products. "Think these problems over," Mr. Bennett said. "I leave them with you to- night."

What our friends to the South have applied successfully, we ill Canada can apply too. The instru- ments of legislation ore ready to our hands; will we use them? The Americans think we're foolish that we do not use them.

Mr. Bennett next proceeded to a discussion of thc terms of the Dlln- can Report, pointing ollt that, last ycor in parliament thc Conservative opposition submitted a resolution that the terms of the Duncan re- port be promptly carried out. Two sessions passed-and nothing donc. Finally. in thc supplementary esti- mates, after great agitation in thc provinces, an appropriation was ill- sorted for the new car ferry. But. so far as thc speaker knew. they had not been carried into effect. He said that, when thc Conservative party got into power, whether hc was leader or no, the Duncan report would at once bc implemented in its entirety.

He closed ills address with a warn- ing to his hearers to put aside blind partisanship and view thc policies of the destiny of Canada from a broad national viewpoint, so that

During the month of July 81 con- victions were recorded for violations of the Motor Vehicle Act or City Tralllc By-Law. They consisted of 46 for over-speeding, 26 for "stop" by-law, 3 for operating without ll- cense, 1 for refusing to stop when signalled to clo so by Traffic Offlcer, 1 for operating without Markers, 1 for operating with only one Mark- er, and 3 miscellaneous. To date during the current month we note a marked improvement in the opera- tion of motor vehicles within the City limits. Drivers, with few ex- ccptions, are driving and approach- ling intersections with more care ‘than hitherto, and it is the sincere wish of the Police Department that such conditions should continue. thereby avoiding the unpleasant duty of bringing so many offenders before the Court.

There were also 6 convictions for non-payment of City Dog Tax, 1 for owning a vicious dog, and 2 under the Sanitary By-Law. Four charges of Disorderly conduct were dismis- sed.

During July we assisted the Pro- hlbitlon Officers in 9 searches of‘ premises suspected of the unlawful sale or possession oi‘ liquor. 0 pro- secutions were entered, resulting in six convictions and 3 dismissals, I-‘ivc offenders were committed to the County Jail.

STANFORD IINIVERSITY, STA- DIUM. Calif, Aug. 13. — Herbert Hoover accepted the Republican presidential nomination Saturday with a reiteration of his stand against repeal of the prohibition amendment or any modification oi enforcement that would constitute nullification, and with the exposit- ion of a three-fold agricultural re- lief program.

For relief to tllc farmer, he out- Rllned a program embracing tariff protection and increased and cheap- er transportation in building up farmer-owned and controlled corp- orations to take care of crop surp- luses.
