Commencement Yesterday

"if you are to enjoy great suc- cess you must purchase it at a great price," warned Rt. Rev. J. A. Murphy. D.D.. in addressing the graduates at Prince of Wales Col- lege convocation exercises yester- day. "That price is study and la- bour. There is no royal road to learning.

"The trend today is towards comfort and ease." the speaker added. "If you seek these merely for their own sake they will be replaced by that lsoft life' which. according to a great general of the last war, brought about the fall of a great nation. What. you may ask. will life give you in ex- change for the satisfaction of idle- ness and self-indulgence. At first it will give you the pain of sac- rifice and perhaps of suffering like any other discipline intended for the training of the mind. Later it will bring you something of incest-

CONGRATULATES GRADUATES Premier A.W. Matheson pre- sided at the convocation. He off- ered his congratulations to the graduates at the same time giv- ing credit to those who tried hard but were perhaps not so successful. The prizes and certificates were presented by His Honor Lieuten- ant Governor T.W.L. Prowse. Dr. Frank MacKinnon in giving the principal's report told the stu- dents their certificates should not be taken to mean that had com- pleted their education; rather they should indicate that the student was now qualified to enter as app- reritices in a much broader field.

VALEDICTORY

The Valedictory address was given by Ian MacLean. In his ad- dress he recalled generally the many social activities enjoyed by the students of Prince of Wales as well as the laborious times spent in preparation for and in writing examinations.

The Valedictorian paid tribute to the teachers or the College. "Why is it we have to leave just

when we begin to know our tea cl1ers'."' he asked. S-pecial appre- ciation was expressed to the par- ents through whose sacrifices the graduation of the students was made possible. "Our debt to them is such that the only way we can fully repay them is to be equally unselfish when it comes our turn. We hope that our presence here on the stage will be some reward for their labours". he said.

LARGE AUDIENCE

The College auditorium was crowded with parents relatives and friends of the students. The graduates pieceeded by class members of the other three years made an impressive appearance as they entered the t” ion. to the strains of the processional march played by Royston F. Mug- ford. A.R.C.O.

Distinguished guests on the plat- form other than those already met- tioned were His Worship. Mayor Stewart: Hon. Kier Clark, Minis- ter of Education; Hon. Eugene Cullen. Minister of Agriculture, Rt. Rev. Monsignor MacKenzle. Rector of St. Dunstan's Univers- ity; Dr. L.W. Shaw, Deputy Min- ister of Education; Dr. G.D. Steel, former Principal of Prince of Wales.

The third evening of the P.E.l. Drama Festival was opened last night by Mr. Jock Lawson. C.D.A. who spoke of the difficulty of get- ting people to take part in drama and he considered the casts should be commended for the time and work they have spent in preparing for the present fes- 'val.

One play was presented last evening, "Here Comes Charlie". by Jay Tobias and presented by the Wbeatley River Players and directed by Mrs. Philip Math- eson.

in his summing up Prof. Sip- perell said the play offered the challenge to groups. "do you dare to try a better script." He felt the script should be worth- while when so much effort mllst have been put into the produc- tion. to hold an audience and im- prove the taste. The visual as- pects could be improved, to keep the play from becoming monton- ous. It needed tempo. variations. groupings with meaning, The sur- roundings were good with clear diction. Costumes were pleasing. especially on the part of the la-

dies. Prof. Slppercll said the stage could have been dressed better and he would have liked to have seen Nora and Officer Tim on the Irish side.

Of the various players he said Larry showed good comedy at times. Ted Hartley did a nice job with good expression. Vivian. showed good characterization but could work more on the part. Aleck Twigs showed a good flair for comedy. Although diction could be clearer. his facial ex- prcsslons were good. The part of Charlie was long and difficult for a young girl and Mrs. Smythe Kersey had a clear idea of the character.

Members of the cast were: Tlta Ling (Nora Malone). Gordon An-

The brawl started when 200 men lnvadcd a section of the plant where machinery was being instal- led. They carried chains. pipes and baseball bats. Witnesses said they stormed through one section of the plant and in a few minutes had cleared the place.

Davie Fulton (PC - Kamloopsl broached the subject during the daily Commons question period.

Ci-IARLOTTETOWN, CANADA. SATURDAY MAY )6 1955' in DEFIED ORDERS OF CHAIRMAN

OTTAWA (CP) - Donald Flem- ing. 51-year-old Progressive Con- servative. was suspended from the Commons for the final IV: hours of Friday's sitting after he defied orders of Chairman W.A. Robin- son.

The House voted 131 to 55 for the temporary expulsion of the Toronto Eglinton member who had insisted on speaking despite re- peated orders by Mr. Robinson to sit down.

Opposition leader Drew later gave verbal notice he will present a motion of censure against Mr. Robinson because the chairman "does not command the respect of this side of the house."

Mr. Fleming. suspended on I motion proposed by Finance Min- ister Harris, government House leader. walked from the hamber alone as Conservative and CCF members thumped their desks. Mrs. Ellen Fairclough (PC - Hamilton West) brought in a Cana- dian ensign and draped it over his desk.

It was the first time in 12 years a membe had been suspended for defying the chair.

Mr. Fleming took his stand dur- ing an u; roar - filled Opposition fight against the government at- tempt to push its bitterly-contested gas pipeline legislation through the Commons.

LONG TACTICAI FIGHT

With the bill before the commit- tee of the whole House, chairman "obinson was trying to rule on an Opposition claim that a tactical move of the government was out of order.

After hearing one hour of Opposi- tion argument. the chainnan said

he had heard enough and would make his ruling on the point.

Mr. Fleming, shaking off re- peated orders to take his seat, stood and demanded to be heard on a question of privilege. Finally. the chairman reported him to Speaker Rene Beaudion

His suspension followed.

The day was a continuation of the disorder and bedlam which marked "" 'sday's sitting.

The end result was that the gov- ernment made no progress ill its drive to get approval by June 7 of the bill to lend up to 380,000,000 to Trans-Canada Pipe Lines Ltd. to build the Prairie leg of its 3375.- 000.000 gas line from Alberta to Ontario l Quebec.

If the deadline is not met - only nine sitting days of Parlia- ment remain-Trans-Canada is re- leased from its agreement to coin-

plete the Prairie section of the-

2,200-mlie line by Dec. 31.

An unprecedented number of 75 questions-61 from C0nSerVallVeS-- were put to cabinet ministers at the start of the day's sitting. an Opposition tactic that cut one hour from the precious time remaining for pipeline conslderaiun. The quesions embraced a wide variety of subjects. mostly minor. includ- ing even experiments on chrysan- tbemum culture.

LONG WRANGLE

Procedural wrangling and then the Fleming issue took up the rest of the day's time on the bill.

Mr. Fleming threw bitter words at Mr. Robinson as the 50-year-old chairman refused to hear his ques- tion of privilege.

"You are making a farce out of

these proceedings. . .this is not any

way to run a peanut stand, let alone Parliament."

Mr. Robinson replied he had given every courtesy to Mr. Flem- ing and ordered him to resume his scat. if Mr. Fleming would not, he would report the matter.

Mr. Fleming: "if you wish to deny me my right a a member of the House and refuse to hear in question of privilege, you will take your own blind course. I assume."

After the chairman reported to (Mr. Bcaudoln. Mr. Fleming spoke lagain.

lie said he had stood his ground "without departing one inch from the respect v'hicb in the 11 years ll have been in this house I have always given to the chair "

"But there comes a time when a higher duty is owed, and it is a duty to Parliament itself. in the lung centuries and tradition of

l parliamentary freedom."

lFIHTS FOR OTHERS

He said he was asserting his right to "stand up against discrim- inatory decisions" fur present and future members of the Commons.

"1 abide by the consequences."

Mr. Harris said officers of Parl- iament m .st be resp ted

"Every one of us realizes that we do err from time to time." he said. "But one thing we must not have happen, if we can possibly avoid it, is that the authority of both Mr. Speaker and the chair- man of the commtitee should be defied in other than the normal method of appealing to the com- mittee or to the House as a whole."

Mr. Harris said he regretted greatly what had happened.

But if the Commons was to in- dicate its support of the chair the "only possible" course was a mo-

tion that Mr. Fleming be suspen- ded.

Speaker Beaudoln. speaking de- liberately. said that no matter how serious the political warfare be- tween two sides, ”I am asking hon- orable members to keep in mind that occupants of the chair are not concerned and are not capable of intervening."

". , .When a ruling is made hon- orable members have but one re- course. and that recoursg is to appeal. . . .

”If they want to criticize the occupants of the chair. . because of impartiality or partisanship. . . they also have 1 recourse."

COLD CENSURE CHAIR

That was to move a motion call- ing for censure of the occupant of the chair.

Mr. Drew replied that Mr. Rob- inson "does not command the respect of this side of the house."

"Such appropriate 3 t e p s as should be taken will be followed."

The last incident similar to that iame"tf''V ” . of Friday was in 1944 during de- "1 dldnt seek this. Mr. Flam. : hate on the government's family in! SEld- 3 - -1 d98PlY "SW1 "113 1

allowances bill.

Hon. H. A. Bruce, Conservative member for Toronto Parkdale, re- based to withdraw a charge that the allowances were a "bribe" and was suspended for the day on a motion by former prime minister Mackenzie King.

Friday's incident was not the same as "naming" a member, when the Speaker calls a mem- ber's name because of disorderly conduct. The last person to be named was Liguori Lacombe. an. Independent Liberal member for Laval - Two Mountains, who re- fused the Speaker's orders to come

The motion to suspend Mr. Flem- ing was backed by Liberal and Social Credit members. It was opposed by Conservative and CC? parties and Independent Paul E. Gagnon, Chicoutirnl.

N0 DEBATE

Earlier. S ' Besudoln had was not debatable. The ruling was appealed : lCl sustained on a vote of 133 to '4. That time M. Gagnon i and Ross Thatcher (Ind-Moose Jaw-Lae Centre) sided with Lib- erals and Social Creditcrs in sup- porting the ruling.
