divided’ into two separate seats. Dr. M. E.

"that the constituency of .Quq:n's and the City of Char- lottetown could scarcely be com- pared to the cities of Halifax. Hamilton or Ottawa. In those in-

ings were altered on account of large increases in population. Now my understanding is that the .populations of Charlottetown and Queen's have changed very little. over the years.

“No Useful Purpose"

“I doubt if any useful purpose would be served by the division of Queens into two separate seats." he added. "It would mean that the seats would have relatively small populations to serve."

Dr. McGarry said that. Prince Edward Island was
