1, Has the Govemment received a petition from the people of Hamp- ton praying for a new shore road [rom De Sable to Victoria Shore Rodd? 2. if so, what action (Lf any) has men taken by the Government?

Aiis\vf?l‘Z Hon. Mr. sharp replied verbally as follows:

in Mr. Strong in the chair, on second reading of the following Sup- plementary Extimates for the fiscal year 1933. - Prince of Wales College Con- liriiciioii Account, $112,000. Giutiing of grounds and laying of sidewalks surrounding Prince of wales College, $5,500. f‘aicon\v0od Hospital construction gocount, east wing. $90,000. nstension of Water System, Fal- somvood Hospital, $7,500.- Mr. LePa.ge asked if there had been any estimate received for re- constructing the east wing of Fal- tonwuod Hospital. _ lion. Dr. MacMillan: “The esti- mates submitted are from $100,000 to $115,000 and we propose to tell them it will have to be cut more; that all we can spend is $90,000. Mr. McIntyre approved of the expwiditure of $00,000 for recon- structing the east wing but he was "miller alarmed" to see $215,000 v cd in supplementary estimates. £ Main Estimates, he maintained. _i liotilil have been reduced by a gon.

lion. Dr. Maovflllan said that in

oriicr to save the east wing of Fnlcouwood it was absolutely nee-

sssiiy that something should bo done this year. 'I‘he sum of $90,000 was in the supplementary Estimates f°f that purpose. The next move will be to repair this wing as quieg. il' as imssiible.

. MONEY N01' WASTED

I-Ion. Dr. MacMillan denied that

this money had been thrown a/way uselessly on Falconwood plana. Last year it was generally realized that the Prince of Wales College would cost between $200.- 000. and $300,000 and that Fal- conwood Hospital would cost about three-quart/ers of a million. Pro- vision was made for borrowing this amount and no objection was taken to the amount by members of the Opposition. It was in the minds of everyone that it would be necessary to build a. proper institution for the ca-re of the in- sane. It was only during the Fall and Winter that the feeling de- veloped that this was not possible. Meanwhile, ,the Government had gone ahead getting plans for an institution that would be a real mental hospital. The Govemment had received the advice of the Mental Hygiene Council of Can- ada: they were told what the min- imum cost would be and the archi- tect was instructed to prepare the plans accordingly. It was incor- rect to say that the expenditure on these 'plans was “wasted money." "What we are doing now." the speaker explained, "is only a make- shift. There is going to be no adequate attempt made to provide proper facilities for treatment. In other words, we are not going to have a mental institution at all. If in the future the Province is able to build such an institution, how- ever, it will know exactly what is required, and the plans will be avail- able. Moreover, the plans will be serviceable in reconstruction of the east wing this year. The arrange- ment made with the architect was on a basis of 5 per cent commis- sion. and the architect was to pay for the inspection of the work. Some criticism had been offered that too much was paid to the ar- chitect on the Prince of Wales College plans by paying 6 per cent; but this arrangement included the ‘obligation on the architect of look- ing after the heating and plumlng. In most contracts of this kind the work is generally divided; there is USUBUY 4 1-2 per cent paid for gen- eral architects fees, and 2 1-2 per cent for looking after heating and ipluimiblngz so that the fee runs up to six or seven per cent.

Referring again to Fsloonwood

plans, Dr. Macilviillan pointed :ut that revision of plans ln works of this kind was not infrequent. The tl'l1Sl»€€S of the Prince Edward Is- land Hospital found themselves in the same position: they had to re- vise their plans three times. That does not mean that the money was wasted. The Govemment has tried £0 d0 the Very best it could under the circumstances. It must not be forgotten that every one was under the impression, a year ago, that it would be a good thing to go one-ad with the construction of iw. mental hospital that would meet the re- quirements of modern conditions. All at once there came a change in public opinion, and the net re- sult has been a cutting down of the plans to the very minimum, of re- pairing the old building.

Mr. Mblntyre maintained the ar- chitects on Prince of Wales College l had received too much commission' and the ooncensus of opinion was' that the old foundation was good' enough. Before it was completed Prince of Wales College, would nm close upon 8400.000. He approved of mofing the cast wing of Fai-[ oonwwod, but he thought they should have rooted the west wing as well, the walls of which, he maintained, were in good shape until they had been tom down. However, if the Government keeps down the expenditure on the east wing “lt won't be so bad." The Govemment, however, ‘should hold the architect dofvm to plans in- volving the expenditure of a speci-

fied amount of money.

CITES LIBERAL EXPENDITIJRES

Hon. Mr. Arsenault referred Mr.

iviefntyxo to the Grand River Scow. built by the Liberal Government. The plans for the soorw had to be rcdrawn in order to construct I. seow to contain the machinery that had been ordered. It cost #7,- 324. The some gentleman (Mr.

The wor1d’s economic plight

would be the main subject of the

disarmament in the background and war debts dovetailed to the nego- tiations now being conducted by Sir Ronald Lindsay, the British Ambassador.

Mr, MacDonald's visit is an ln-

direct result of his recent talks with Norman H. Davis the Ameri-

sume time here before going to Paris, where he is now holding dis- cusslons with foreign statesmen.

The Prime Minister. wanted to go

to Washington earlier but the banking crisis in the United States intervened.

With European problems pressing,

his only opportunity to make the trip will be during the Easter par- liamentary recess, which lasts from April 13 to April 25.

A statement by President Roose-

velt expressing hope that the Prime Minister would visit him was inter- preted here as meaning that no new formal invitation was neces- sary. Great Britain was advised in February that British statesman would be welcome at Washington to discuss debts and other prob- lems.

The provisional plans of Mr.

MacDonald, it was understood to- night, entail his departure on the Berengaria April 15 accompanied by his daughter Ishbel and three treasury officials, Sir Frederick Leith-Ross, Sir Frederick Philips and S. D. Waley.

It was said that it is only a co-

incidence that Sir Walter Layton, noted economist, is proceeding to America on the same ship. (By F. G. Vosburg, Associated Press Staff Writer)

WASHINGTON; April 5-Presid-

out Roosevelt looked forward to- night to receiving soon a dis- tinguished guest-Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald of Great Brit- ain-for a series of man-to-man conversations on the great econom- ic and disarmament problems fac- ing their nations and the world.

The President. who has a liking

for direct, personal diplomacy, said in a brief statement issued from the White House he felt a. visit by Mr. MacDonald to Washington would be "helpful_"

In London, meanwhile, provision-

al arrangements were made for Mr. MacDonald to sail for the United States about the middle of the month on a fast flying visit during the Easter recess of the»Hou.se of Commons. '

How far war debts will enter in-

to the discussion was not disclosed but Mr. Roosevelt long ago express- ed his willingness to receive a Brit- ish representative and hear ~his case for revision of these much discussed obligatons.

The White House statement auth-

orized by the President said:

"In the course of informal ex-

changes of views between the Brit- ish and ourselves regarding the general economic situation and the problem of dlsannament the Pres- ident has felt that a. visit to Wash- ington by the Prime Minister would be helpful.

“The President ever since his

first conversation with the British Ambassador at Warm Springs has emphasized his hope that the Prime Minister could come over.”

In a memorable visit .to this

coutnry in the spring of 1929, Prime Minister MacDonald walked with President Hoover beside the waters of the Rapldan and seated on a fallen mountain log, laid plans for the Disarmament Con- ference held in London later in that year.

The projected Rnosevelt-Mac-

Doiia`d conservations are expected to be just as informal and to have n slnilar bearing upon thc econo- mic conclave which the Roosevelt ndininistration regards as of vital importance.

Regardless of whether other for-

eign cabinet members come to Wash’ngton, thc Roosevelt admin- Tstratlon plans to go ahead with discussions through regular dip- lomatic channels and with techni- cal experts as part of the plan for insuring general co-operation at London.

France has agreed to prelimin-

ary conversations and today its new Ambassador, Andre De La Beulaye. left Paris for Wash'ngton. He is' perssnally acquainted with Presl- dent Roosevelt.

W-Ill SAIL FUR CANADA

Hon. G. Howard Fer-

guson, Commis- sioner To United Kingdom, Will Probably Sail Sat- urday.

(Canadian Press)

'.li0RON’I0,‘ April 5-Hon. G.

Howard Ferguson, Canadian High Commissioner to the United King- dom, will sail for Canada next Sat- urday, the Canadian Press learned tonight on good authority. It is understood Mr_ Ferguson planned to sail today but was delayed by last-minute pressure of business.

The specific reasons for Mr.

Ferguson’s retum was not revealed. He made a combined business and pleasure trip to the Dominion last year.'

A Sllszestlon Mr. Ferguson might

be urged to resume the leadership of the Ontario Conservative party, in the event of Premier George S. Henry's resignation, was discount- ed by a. prominent member of the party.

“Will Mr. Ferguson visit Toronto

in connection with recent develop- ments in the Conservative party?" the Canadian Press asked.

"He will visit Toronto, but posi-

tively he will not assume leadership of the provincial party again," was the reply. ~

Despite recurring reports that he

contemplated resigning owing to lll health, Premier Henry has stead- fastly denied them, declaring he would "stick as long as the people want me."

ItOiME, April 6-(Thursday)-(A. t

remain intact.

It declared his recent sugges-

tions, asking for collaboration by Frimoe, Germany, and Great Brit- ain for peace, are the only basis on wh`ch "peace of equality" can be built.

At the same time. the convic-

tion was expressed tliair “through the work of clarification already initiated," the plan will find ln the leaders of the Government “the same comprehension that already has been shown by the people."

The council said it felt that the
