A. Taschereau, of Quebec. Hon. W. A. Gordon, Minister of Immigra- tion, HonhHonore Mercier, Quebec Minister oi Lands and Forests, and Aime Gcofirion, KC, Montreal, were present at the discussion. While no official statement was made, it is understood it is very probable that with the elimination of the present directorate, the now existing company will be re-organ- lzed and the undertaking will pro- ceed. Work has been carried on as ln the past since Parliament pro- togued. - No discussion, it is learned, took place on the old matter of Domin- ion and provincial rights; and it is stated that there will be no occasion gor any reference to the courts on his point in regard to the Beaultrr- acts enterprise. A further confer- ence may take place between repre- ientatives of the Dominion and Quebec in the near future on mat- ters of detail in regard to the pro- ject.

Fisheries had done much to allev- iate these conditions, Mr. Rhodes said, but it could not make regu- lations for the improvement oi the industry without the support-of the people engaged in the fishing in- zlustry. $12,000,000 Opening

The oysters, which formerly sold at $2 a. berrel could produce an in- come of.’ $12,000,000 a year in Prince Edward Island alone, Mr. Rhodes pointed out, if the industry would take the proper steps to exploit these huge possibilities. Regarding the grant of $100,000 to the industry, which had been forecast, Mr. Rhodes pointed out that the voluminous report on the fishing industry had not yet been digested, but when this was done the proper move would be made to aid the industry, the Government co-operating with the association.

Is Arrested By Her Namesake After Two Years

(Canadian Press) HALIFAX, N. S, Sept. 16—-Thc “mystcry woman" of Terrance Bay. who disappeared two years ago af- ter she was sentenced to serve six months in prison for operating a

tencc.

Caught by customs men in 1920 when she wm in charge, of the still, she refused to give her ham:- and for a time she was a mystery rvoman. Later she was identified m: Geraldine Slaucnwhitc. A convic- tion before a magistrate was thrown out by a county court judge, but a fresh charge laid by the customs mcn resulted in a second convic- tion that urns sustained by county and Supreme Courts. Shortly af- ter sentence was passed sho disap- peared from view and at the last session - of Supreme Court her bondsman had to pay $300 because

of her failure to show up at the

appointed time. There tho matter rested until this morning when

ernment was authorised in spend m amount not exceeding $20,000,000 for the purpose of assisting the munici- palities and the provinces to cope with their unemployment problems. As a result, a oo-opentive effort was organized in which the municipali- ties, the provinces and the Federal Government joined. Roughly 850,- 000,000 was thereby provided for the creation o! employmmt opportuni- ties. The two large railway systems substant‘ lly contributed to the general effort by advancing their works and construction programme to the extent of $20,000,000 more. The net result was that employment opportunities were ‘ ‘ amount- ing roughly to $10,000,000. Since that time, these works have been proceeded with and largely oom- pleted. Something over 800,000 men found ployment more or less in- termittently totalling between seven and eight million day's work. The world depression has continued throughout 1931 and Parllirnent has seen fit to authorize the Government of Canada to further assist in creat- ing employment opportunities for the purpose of providing work in preference to wholesale direct re- lief.

Out of the unemployment and form Relief act of 1931, efforts have been renewed with all the provinces co-operating to organize a substan- tial employment relief campaign. Negotiations have been concluded with some provinces and satisfac- tory progress has been made with others, while the Federal Govern- ment itself has in contemplation federal works at federal expense to further assist in relieving the na- tional situation.

Problem More Acute in West

The problem is more acute in Western Canada than in the East because of the large sections in Western Canada suffering from drought and crop failures of varying intensity in different districts. The Federal Government has instituted a number of undertakings which are from week to week bclng ex- tended, while a number of provin- ces have already commenced sub- stantial relief works largely in connection with highway construc- tion. The trans-Canada highway project is being prosecuted with vigour. The Federal Government is paying fifty per bent of the cost thereof, and another provincial highway projects is contributing a large portion of the ttoai.

In the province of Prince Edward Island, a programme of relief works has been recommended by the Pro- clncial Government. somewhat in excess of last year's effort because of the increased volume of unemploy- ment. heretofore, many people from that province annually sought em- ployment in lumbering and other industries in adjacent provinces which this year is not available to the same extent.

In Nova Scotia, a. very consider- able Federal programme will be'pro- secutcd by which many wharf and dock repairs and reconstruction will be carried on by the Federal Gov- ernment alone, while 1n co-opera- tion with the Provincial Govern- ment, a substantial volume of work is contemplated on the trans-Can- ada highwayQ The cost of municipal undertakings is being shared by agreement with the Provincial Gov- ernment on a basis much similar to last year's agreement. "The munici- pal projects are in course of prepar- ation but have not yet received Fed- eral approval.

has been submitted by the lirovin-

lcial Government, while in the city 3 of Saint John, about 1800 men have

for some months been engaged on the reconstruction of the docks which were destroyed by fire in June last.

"Negotiations with tho province of Quebec arc still in the preliminary stages and conferences with the Government of that province are now taking place.

"The Province of Ontario has out- lined a comprehensive programme of roadbulldlng, particularly in connec- tion with the trans-Canada high- way, and numerous municipal pro- Jocts will be submitted for ‘ ‘ - ation nnd approval about the end of the present month. It is intended by both the Provincial and Federal authorities‘ to employ on the road

otherwise be, wholly unznployed, first those adjacent to the highway undertakings and secondly t0 offer

opportunities for employment, par- ticularly to transients and single mcn from urban centres no certi- fied through the Employment Ser- vice oi Canada, relying upon the municipal undertakings to fumidh employment for the more skilled artisans in building and other in-

Ooncll Board of Pensions Commis- sinners.

Major Charles C. TDOIBPGOIJ. newly appointed member of the Pensions Tribunal will sit today along with the other members, to get. an insight into the work of the ‘Prlbunai, although he will not actually participate in these cues until he is sworn in by the Clerk of Privy Council at Ottawa.

Owing to the absence from the city of Premier Stewart, the visit- ing members of tho ‘hibunal were not able to make an omcinl call, but will do so today.

The Tribunal is here from New Glasgow and will leave Wednesday afternoon, Sept. 23, for Moncton and then to St. John.

Among those in attendance at yes- terday's proceedings were represen- tatives of the Canadian Legion and Mr. W. Chester S. McLure, MP.

Under amendments oi the Pen- sions Act adopted at the 1930 ses- sion of Parliament, the Federal Ap- peal Board ceased to function on Sept. 30 of that year. Provision was made for the appointment of a I'm- sion Tribunal consisting of nine per- sons (a number subsequently in- creased, owing to pressure of work, to twelve) and a Pension Appeal Court consisting of three persons. The new procedure provided that applications be made in the first instance to the Board of Pension Commissioners of Canada, but that if a pension 1s not awarded the case be referred, through the chan- nels provided for in the Act, to the Pension Tribunal to be dealt with

Distinguished Veterans

Lieut. Colonel Cyrus Wesley Peck, v.o., is one of the most distinguish- ed o! Canada's heroes in the Great War, in which he commanded the famous 16th (Canadian Scottish) Battalion? An extremely modest man, he dislikes discussing his war achievements, but it is well known that besides winning the V. C. and D. S. O. and Bar, he was five times mentioned in despatches. ‘

The exploit for which Colonel Peck won the coveted Victoria Cross occurred on Sept. 2, 1918, at Cagnicourt. The official account, as given in the London Gazette, is as follows:

"For most conspicuous bravery and skllful leading when in attack under intense fire. '

"His command quickly captured the first objective, but progress to the further objective was held up by enemy machine-gun fire on his right flank. The situation being critical in the extreme, Colonel Peck rushed forward and made a personal reconnaissance under heavy mu- chine-gun and sniping firs, across a stretch of ground which was heav- ily swept by fire. Having recon- noitred the position, he returned, reorganized his battalion, and, act- ing upon the knowledge personally gained, pushed them forward and arranged to protect his flanks. He then went out under the most in- tcnse artillery and machine gun fire, intercepted the tanks, gave them the necessary directions, pointing out where they were to make for, and thus paved the way for a Canadian infantry battalion to push forward. To this battalion he subsequently gave requisite sup- port. His magnificent display of courage and fine qualities of leader- ship enabled the advance to be con- tinued, although always under heavy artillery fire, and contributed large- ly to the success of the brigade at- tack."

Oolonel Peek is a native oi Hope- well, N.B.', his ancestors having come from England to Massachus- etts Bly in 1630, and removed to New Brunswick in 1700. He ls a Conservative membc of tho Legis- lature of British Columbia and a

fmnce in these opportunities and thereby assisting them to obtain employment adjacent to their fam- ily responsibilities u far as possible.

"The Province of Manitoba has already commenced some‘ highway construction work and a substantial programme of municipal projects will be submitted for approval shortly.

"Relief of the farmers in the drought stricken areas of the Prairie Provinces constitutes the most diffi- cult problem in Western Canada, but this ought not to be confused with unemployment arising from industrial or ‘commercial fluctua- tions. Some substantial projects in the urban centres have been tenta- tively approvcd, and the Mini oi Agriculture, (Hon. Robert Wain) is actively directing the farm relief programme in those areas, particu- larly in Saskatchewan u well an n- slsting in the relief oi unemploy- ment in the cities and towns. I-le is at preient in the West, u in also the Minister of the Interior, Hon. T. G. Murphy, who is helping to

map out the programme in Muri-
