Incss standpoint and persisted in

today working against the Mari-

Canada started. Some newspapersfl which in 1925 openly declared that

the Maritime Provinces had no

claim for recognition from parlia-

ment, ore still singing the same

old song, utterly dbvious to the

fact that times have changed and

men and women are thinking dif-

ferently. These papers are coll-

teut to continue to discharge the

the Prime Minister cll’ this countrv

fact that they recognized the
