The priricinall GPCTgQ died,

The words that follow are a message which I feel it is my duty to communicate to my Canadian countrymen, - English and French. I w mint out-to them the great honor which was bestowed upon them in my humble person through Lord Halifax at present Ambassador of Great Britain t0 the United States.

AT LORD HALIFAX’!

Recently his Excellency has been kind enough to receive me with a kindness and generosity which have deeply touched me. 10rd Halifax

INTERVIEW WITH

evidently wished to give proof of his extieme interest in regards to the whole 0f Canada. of course, but also particularly with regards to the French-Canadian minority vrhich I represented on the occa- sion of the moment.

I confess tiiat 1 was very strong- ly impressed, at the outset, — furthermore, in an agreeable ‘mannen-by the distinguished sil- houette, elegant and very swelte of this marvellous person. Lo d Hali- fax, H9 i; very tail. so tail that a PBFISR“ R/‘YIIG pictured iiim ie- reiiti as “taller than the tallest guar of the King of England". And, if one could have written of him that he was iii his country the best dressed man amongst the English. lie appeared to me iii the United States to be the bcst (tress- ed man of all Americans.

MORAL CHARACTER OF MY DISTINGUISHED HOST

True Englishman, of real origin. Lord Halifax carries with him iiii- . deriiabie roof of the most. personal character tics as well as the best of his nationality. This man, iviin just assumed, in the United flutes like Mr. Churchill in England. a part oi the heaviest responsibilities in international politics and in the extremely complex evolution of the actual war, showed. at the very outset of our interview. a clear in- teilect, sure of itself, entirely aware of all the problems of actuality, of an energetic will going straight to the point; of a firm soul, courage- ous, able. to blend the nuances of

the must attentive emotion to the irresistible statements of a Yuan of great authority.

It is known that he won. in his country the confidence of the pen- ple as well as of the aristocracy the affection of the poor classes as well as the most fortunate ones, the sympathy of the Catholics as well as that of the Protestants.

LORD HALIFAX AND THE FRENCH CANADIANS

Therefore, Hts Majesty the King of England could not select more dignified a person to represent him in the United States, perhaps with the anticipated hope that Lord Halifairs field of influence would extend beyond the American bord- ers and would be felt no doubt. but effective even by the Canadian peo-

pie.

That is why I must underscore. in a special manner, the kind words that His Excellency has been nice enough to address to me and of the generous sympathy which he has manifested towards our Canadian- French population. Encouraged by so many oi his delicate attentions I did not hesitate to post t e Am- bassador of Great Britain ith olir generous and heroic war efforts, cs- pecialiy in vicw of the fact that our Canadian families are incomparabiy more numerous and our popula- tion more restricted, the proportion of our volunteers and the accrued taxes s0 much heavier to carry are proof in a tangible manner of our substantial sincerity and of our loyalty towards the English cause.

In the same interview which his ,Lorclship granted me. I made the . invitation and expressed desire that this Inrdship should visit Canada | and get a true idea of our real sen- , timents and devotedness towards the ‘British Royalty and British Coin-

_Caiiadians remain and wish to re- main

LADY HALIFAX SHARES SENT!- MENTS OF THE ENGLISH AMBASSADOR

Lady Halifax shares the senti- ments of her distinguished husband towards u: and knows how to tran- slate in turn in the most amiable fashion the feeling which were held and revealed by our gracious sov- ereign, the Queen of England. when she visited Canada.

I took advantage of the oppor- unity to express to their Excellen- cies the sincere admiration that we have for them and the Royal Auth- ority which they represent towards

I have allowed myself to announce the definite ieallzatinii of this W910i’)!

MY RIGHT TO SPEAK ON BE- HALF OF TIIE FRENCH (JANADIJANS

If I allow myself to speak in tiic name of the 3.500.000 French Can- adians of Canada as well a; the 4.000.000 actually in the United States. I believe that tliisright will be easily granted me, iii as much asI have had the honor i0 offer to the military units of His Majesty the‘ four oldest of my tiiiie sons, the fifth preparing himself to follow ills brothers. I may therefore speak WlI-II the authority given me by my twelve children in the name of the 7,500,000 of brave Canadian PfPllCli "mt "WY ivish to deny nothing of their French traditions no more than their loyalty to the English crown.

SlllTCCtIOn with the mturn 0f its liberty; this is our intimate con- fidence and we wish to do every- tiiing_ in our power to hasten this glorious day.

Lord Halifax was kind enough to listen with the warmest interest to the remarks that: I made with re. ilfirds to the relaxln of the Eng- lish blockade and wit regard to the help in foodstuffs supplied to non. occupied France by the government 0f the United State;

Tourist Charms ln Boston Speech

Aii address on Prince Edward Is- land was given on Easter Monday. April 14. by Mir. Joseph A. Bernard, ‘Pigiiisb, at a, meeting of the Cana-

Upwards of 2,000 former Prince Edward Islanders were pres- ent. A Boston paper refers to Mr. Bernard as "a probable aPDOintee to time-Senate of Canada" and a cousin of Hon. Angus L. MacDonald, Min- lsifl‘ 0f Naval Defense in the Dom- inion Government. Following ls the text. of Mr. Bernard's address:

“I am deeply grateful for the ln-

gathering of friends because I feel that you are all former Canadians and because I know that there ex- ists in all of you that public patrio- tic spirit, that love of country which exemplifies all that is good strong and noble. and which airways exerts itself wheneve; the occasion demands or requires it.

"To this reat country of the United Sta s separated from us by only an imaginary line. where no guns or cannon prohibit free intercourse of our people we owe an immense debt of gratitude. We owe it because you Americans have taken to your bosom in your many industrial centres untold thousands of our people, whole families and households born throughout Can- ada but chiefly in the Maritime Provinces have moved across the border into these United States. and here. I am very happy to say have found remunerative employ- ment, have been accepted into your society. erected homes, brought up families. and generally speaking have been a credit to the country from which they came. and are a bulwark of strength in building up this wonderful nation and all that it stand for. Here many opportuni- ties for the betterment of your position in life are yours, and I am glad to find that g0 many of you have made good in your chosen profession or enviroment. I bring you. one and all, greetings from your homeland, and a short story of conditions as they exist there at the present time.

"Those of you who are fortunate enough to be able to visit Canada this coming summer will find every where throu hnut the land great military and ‘Industrial acti- vity with many plants oper- ating twenty four hour shifts to keep up with orders. Manufactur- ing, mining, shipbuildng, fishing. agriculture, lumbering and allied industries have received much add- ed im tua of late, while our young men n ever-increasing numbers are moving into training quart- ers of the military naval and air forces of the Dominion. The war is recognized in Canada. as I believe it is in the United States. as a war in which the German na- tion seeks to destroy all that is cherished by our people. Free speech, free thought. the right of religious worship according to our faith. our educational mstitutions. our Govemmentu. and our desire 0o live our lives ln peace and harmony with our fellow men. In order to do our part in assisting in the de- fense of ail these things we as a nation and as individuals hold dear, we are preparing as only a young

and viriie nation can prepare. to do.
