The following is the text of an" address given by col. beoFpMac- Donald, principal of Queen Square School. before .the Rotary Club

"I wish to express my apprecia- tion of the kind invitation oi your chafrman to act as your guest speaker today, and I have chosen rs my subject-one which affects us all and which is probably more fully appreciated by such an or- ganization as yours than by the average citizen. Despite your fa- miliarity with this subject I feel that you will near with me when I speak briefly to you today on the subject of Canadianism-and its correlated term-Citizenship, I shall not weary you with a de- flnition of either—they are known to you.

"The idea of citizenship has ex- 'sted almost from the time of creation. For example, history tells us of a happy, carefree civ- ilized people who enjoyed life much as we do today. Their games and amusements, their textiles and pottery, their jmveilery, painting and sculpturlng were in many ways superior to ours. ‘They were even interested in the science of flying and successfully employed ‘the glider. Such was the happy

' “Mulch the same could be said ‘of the mighty Babylonian em- pire of the same era. Everyone is Il-mliia-r with the pride of men in later years who considered their boast of being a “Roman Citizen" to be the ‘open sesame‘ to all parts of the known civilized world. Despite this power and might thc Roman Elmpire began to crumble ‘some 1500 years ago, so that to-

day her progeny ranks even less than a third rate world power.

"What lessons are we to learn from these once powerful nations -are we to consider that present lday increased knowledge in the , art of war and self destruction to ‘be s sure guarantee of our sur- vival? The Cartagenian Empire produced the counterpart of our modern tank when they produced

trained elephants; and the Ro- mans were constantly improving upon their weapons; yet these

empires decayed.

“This country of ours has been i occupied by white men for slight- . ,y more than three hundred years. , wowever, in the past ten years a

very definite consciousness has grown up within our borders rc- lgarding our status as a nation- and men everywhere in Canada are beginning-to wonder what part must. be played by the in- dlviciual to foster this new sense of responsibility.

"Are we to drift into a situation similar to former countries and natins whose empires have sunk into obscurity‘? Are we some day tc read the self same words as

hand on the walls of Bflithilzflrs banquet hail-the first of which “thou are weighed in the balance and found wanting’ announcing the death of an empire?

"We must realize that nations cse their identity from compara- tively few sources. Disregnrdang geographical and climatic changes we may say that nations fail into obscurity as a result of weakness from within or because of acf-ion on the part of an aggressor na- tion from without. Or. as ls read- ily seen, a combination of both- for any apparent weakness is but an open invitation to the" stronger xiatlon.

Internal Forces

"Assuming that Canada is a nu.» tion and assuming that she is cap-

growth. in other words that she is destined by all visible signs to be one of the world's great na- irons, what, we must ask our- selves. is the possiblity of internal decay? What are the forces with- in our borders now working to destroy 0r retard the growth of nationhood?

"It is a pretty wei1 established fact that there are social injus- llces~consider our slums, our sweat-shop activity; there are political and religious animosiiles as well as racial intoierances that go far to help disunlte these sev- eral groups that could retain their identities yet still unite on the question of Canadianlsm. This is v nlattar of education. I feel we are entering upon an era of na- tionhood and assuming responsi- bilities and citizenship hitherto little thought of by the man in the street.

“It must also be stressed that the strength of a nation lies in the moral integrity of its people. It is also necessary to realize that s large part of mankind has not i-ad the advantage of a. good elementary training. The court.‘ are filled with youngsters and l; uwuups who are not really to illamc, because they lack the proper moral training. This is an age old problem the solution of which is made more difficult if toe inteillgentia is convinced or who pattern their lives on the philosophy that good and evil are zeiative.

"in this respect let me quote from a recent publication (Human Destiny). ‘Most men need either mntimentai, spiritual, or rational i-arriers. Learned people who are fortunate enough to have been born intelligent. and who have had the privilege of education and ZLStILIOtIOII should realize that a great responsibility rests on their shoulders. If they have not suc- ceeded in convincing themselves lhat there is a God, and that the highest human values are moral and SDIPIiLIBI‘ lot them ponder the question and ask themselves hon- estly whether their negative con- vlction is of s. scientific or senti- mental value.‘

"it behooves us therefore, to read. to study, w educate our- selves and our children to a proper sense of this responsibility.

“The next fifty years will de- termine whether or not Canada ts ir be a nation in every sense of lne word.

Aggressor Nations

"So much for internal weak- ness. What ls there to fear from aggressor nations? Gentlemen, in my candid and considered opinion there is grave ilangcr- from with- lazlt. I refer to the activity of Communistlc Russia. Were this .1. straightforward act of aggres- sion we c0uid and would readily do something definite and ade- quate about it; but, as you well know. the undermining strength of fifth column activities have been and are being employed so that this insidious, malignant, cancerous growth of Communism has femlented to oil corners of ruzr country. Today there are In- stitutions of learning, full fledged universities offering courses In subversive activity.

"Today there are Canadians sub- sidized by foreign capital learning the most efficient methods of de- stroying Canada as a free demo- trzttlc nation. And Canada has people who} in their misguided complacency, say we need not fear such things or that the ‘Russian menace‘ is s myth! There are in Canada some who cannot see that today there are fourteen million people held in slave labor camps

"What, then is our responsibil- ity? We must be constantly alert t4. this menace, we must give sup- port and encouragement to our leaders who are battling this evil across the diplomatic table. We must show them that the citizens oi Canada support them and are banded together in the common ;urpose to resist the infiltration of this destroying influence. Ind- above all, we must show the pur- veyors of these pernicious ‘isms’ that we Canadians will not toler- ate their false and misleading doc- flhes in this demou-atic county of ours.

She is the land of opportunity-a much de- sired goal-if not for themselves, at least for their children. In other words, they have faith in Canada-blind faith, if you will. but we cannot underrate the sin- cerity of that faith when we have literally hundreds of thousands seeking the opportunity W ""1" grate to this new Western world. ghese people are arriving here daily willing and ready to pitch in and work-to acquire the much desired status-a. citizen of Can- ads.

The Government record in the administration of the major pub- lic services is no more satisfactory than 1n relation to our basic in. dustries. In the Highways Depart. ment there has been a great flurry of activity since the election be. came imminent. Apart from m“ 918M101! Work. the secondary roads and even some of the principal primary highways, present a dis- muflllfig picture, illustrating years of disregard and neglect,

1n- the important fleid of edu- cation. there has been serious rail- ure. The Government has talked much o! ill crest Regional High School projects. but these are mu nothing more than mere prqgnlge, "id Vlflie talk. In the meantime. the primary schools. the first and most important unit in the educa- tional plan, have been allowed to suffer severely through lack of proper Government assistance. Our progress in education has been backward rather than forward, and it will take years to regain the ground which we have lost.

Generally, in relation to sq primary industries and major pub- lic services. I submit that the rec- ord of the Government has begn so very unsatisfactory that it 15 the plain duty of every independ- cnt elector to mark his ballot against the Government candidate on Election Day.

The Progressive - conservative Party has prepared a Platform to which the most craeful thought h" be!!! Riven. The time at my disposal does not, of course. peg‘- mit mo to discuss this Platform in detail. It has been given the full- est publicity through both qf our Charlottetown newspapers, and I know that the electors are quite familiar with its provisions, I am confident that this Platform meets with your approval. Its impiemta- tion is tho task to which our Party is solemnly committed after De- cember llth. it hes been designed in the hope of benefitting all d"!!! 0! people and all parts of the Province. It is especially de- signed in the interests of our farm- ers and fishermen upon whose prosperity all of us depend. I am confident that the peoples’ votes at this election will place the Pro- gressive-Conservatlve Party in that position of power where they will have the opportunity of im- plementing this Platform.

Old Age Pensions

I do not think that I should

out making some reference to a campaign which has been carried on by Government canvassers in reference to persons in receipt of old age pensions and family al- lowances. An effort has been made to deceive some of the electors into believing that these are Pru- vincial grants which will cease or diminish if the Jones Government is defeated. The very use of such s. canvass by Government sup- porters. illustrates the extreme weakness of the Government's pos- ition. No party which felt itself strong enough to be elected on legitimate grounds would make use of such a despicable type of canvass. '

As to old age pensions, every elector knowns that these were first granted by the Conservative Government under the late Pre- mier Stewart, and that that pen- sion then granted has been con- tinned by successive governments. Old age pensioners, whether Lib- ersi or Conservative, should feel perfectly free to vote according to their consciences. in the clear understanding that their penslo will not be effected in any way as a result of their vote. However. I wish to say this to old age pen- sioners, and those shortly to be- come eligible. There is one very unsatisfactory feature of our pen- sion system in that the amount granted to a. pensioner awning real estate. accumulates as a lien or charge against his property. pay-

property upon his death. From the point of view of the Province, as! well as the point. of view of the‘ pensioner and his family, this is? s. most undesirable provision. Iti really transforms what is intend- ed as a pension into what is really a Government loan repayable by the pensioners family at his death. Ii. is a plank in the Platform of the Conservative Party to iiIJUIISIl‘ this pension lion. wlnpleiely.

What I have said with regard to the political freedom of aid age pensioners applies, of course, with equal force to persons in receipt of family ziiiwmnces. The Provin- cial Government has nothing what- ever to do with family allowances. As a DOminiOn Government meas- ure. this legislation received the support of all political parties. I am confident that no old age pensioner, or person receiving fam- ily allowances, will allow himself or herself to be frightened into voting contrary to what his or her conscience dictates. and your al- lowance cannot be increased or diminished in any way by the man- ner in nrhich you vote.
