The Women's Inslitu tes

Wednesday and Thursday of this week will see assembled in Prince of Wales College audi- toriuni what may fittinglj: be called the Women's Parliament of the Provinee~namely the Wo- thirty-first annual

men's Institutes-in their convention. Special speakers will be Mrs. Cameron Dow, president of the F.\V.I.C. of Port Daniel, Quebec, .\liss Elizabeth Mac- Millan. dean of home economics at Acadia Uni- versity, and l\liss Frances .\Iacl\'ay, superinten- dent of the Manitoba Women's Institutes. There will, of course. be the usual presidential and Qmqnitteu reports and open discussion periods, the topics chosen for discussion being the very important ones of agriculture, borne economics, social welfare and citizenship.

Islander-a returning to this Province after an abssnce of twcttty or thirty years itivariably conmn-nt on the changes for the better Wlliflh thev note h rural ztreas. These improvements are. due in no small part to the untiring efforts of the Women's Institutes. A branch of their organization in any community is a sure sign of progress and development. Moreover, since the war they have bcén most active in Red Cross and other activities in aid of our service forces.

A cordial welcome from our citizens awaits the (lclcgates to this weeltis convention in Char- lottetown. .\lay their stay prove both pleasant ind profitable.

Too Much For Patterson

Analyzing the Liberal defeat in Saskatche- wan‘. most newspapers received to date are of opinion that it ivas due chiefly to the increasing popular llfigtility to the King Government. Pro- vincial isstics apparently played little or no part in the campaign. The CCF cattditlates ivcnt after bigger game. In sittglirtg out the lung Ministry for attach instead of the Patterson Government, they showed that they knew their stuff and understood exactly where to hit.

It was generally" agreed that the only alterna- tive to a Liberal government in Saskatchewan was one directed by the CCF, the Progressive Conservatives not having even organized as a provincial partyr till a few weeks before the is- sue of the writs for this election. The Liberals, even five years ago, were in a minority of 40.- 000 with respect to the popular vote, and a CCF triumph in the present circumstances seemed pretty certain.

Mr. Patterson ntay console himself with the reflection that his governtnenfs defeat does not necessarily imply any electoral repudiation of its policies or ‘condemnation of its record, but mainly the antagonism of the western voter to Canada's partisan wartime administration head- ed by Prime Minister King at Ottawa. As the Sydney Post-lfitcord aptly says, that atlminis- tratiouls record has. for the time being at least. made the Liberal tag a heavy load for any pro- vincial government to carry.

It certainly is proving no rabbit's paw.

How Bureacrgy ls Created

Under thc above heading a. striking article by a British l1l€111'l)<‘1' of Parliament. Mr. Thomas Levy, 21]1]‘.(‘I11‘S in The Law Journal, (London) and is reprinted in the curvcitl issue of The Furl/t- nig/tflv 1.1m- Jurrrual. 'l‘or0nto. The reason for its republication is tibvious, as the danger to which attention is (lirected is at least as grave at Ottawa as it is at Wcsttninster. The writers argxuucut is. in brief, that while legislation by regulation and order in CUUHCll is unavoidable in wartime, there is no reason to tolerate the widespread abuse of the system.

Mr. Levy complains that in Great Britain since the outbreak of war over 6.000 regulations and orders have been nuidc. llad hc been writing of Canada he could lIIl\'(' said that >l1lCC l’rinie Min- ister Mackcnzie Ring was returned to office in

The question. llr. Lcty argues, is not a poli- tical onc. lt should be treated as a matter of high national concern, involving the liberties for which wc are now fighting, and the sovereign au- thority of the electors and of the llouse of Cont- mons to which they delegate that ziuthority. 'l‘ln-. writer is couccrnctl. “as we all should he." he says, “with the almost placid acquiescence" of parliamentarians themselves to the ever-grow- ing appetite of governtucnt demrttncnts for power without direct and defined responsibility, and with the "steady" surreptitious pilfering of national liberty under the guise of imperative necessity." Power without responsibility, .\Ir. Levy insists. is always an evil thing. lie quotes a distinguished legal authorirv, the late Lord Hewart, Lord Chief justice, to this effect. “Many assurances have been given from time to time. that this system, especially as worked in wartime, will be drastically revised after the war." says the writer. "It must be borne in mind that it is not merely a wartime expedi-

ent, but a jit-ztce-tinie p r o c e d u r c citor- tnously developed f o r ivartime purposes. and that it has already acquired a Incas-

I! i; Th: ap- fainlmcrtt of a rlanding coufntilfce of the Home of Common: to cxanzirze all delegated legisla- tion and report to the Home. In a letter to The Tinm published a year ago, Lord justice Scott disclosed that he had discussed the pro- posal with the late Speaker Capt. A. E. FitzRoy, who “wholly approved of the proposed proce- dure." It has been opposed on the ground that the work of such a committee would be in- compatible with ministerial responflaility, and that procedure would entail a great amount of work for the departmenu which they ought not to be called upon to do in wartime. In point of fact, however, argues Mr. Levy, all that is desired is the disclosure to the committee of information on the scope of, and the reason for. a regulation, which the House of Commons now lacks. This need impose no greater burden on departments and ministers than they now carry. The burden would be primarily on the members of the committee who would receive the information. consider it, and where neces- sary report to the House.

ada suggested a campaign of parental instruc- tion in sex education of children. The best way to teach sex education is in the homc. ac- cording to the need of the individual child, Bishop Pocock said. It uias possible to bring children through the period of youth to tnatur- ity innocent and pure. The purpose of marriage was training of children, and the zmswer to impurit_v lay in cooperation with the grace of God and the proper home education of the child. Bishop lhicoclt said lhrcc kinds of edu- cation were necessary, intellectual, moral and

The annual report of The Canadian Boy Scouts Association underlines the importance of the war services rendered by the organization through the country, says the Montreal Gazette. In their salvage work, atssistatice in Victory Loan campaigns and Red Cross drives, and the numerous tasks they have undertaken to aid the war effort of their communities, the Boy Scouts have carried over into wartime clays the principles learned in peace. They have (lemon: strated time and again that the true object of Scouting is to train boys to become citizens of the highest type. There was never a time when the influence of the Boy Scout training was tnorc needed. The impact of the war on our juvenile society has been severe and utisettling.
