Late Prime (Minister E ll i 0 Y i n g B ‘a d Health on Constitu- tional Matters — Meant to Stifle Par- liament in Asking for Dissolution

SYDNEY. July 27. —"On consti- tutional matters. the late Prime Minister enjoys bad health," d9. elared Premier Meighen here last night dealing with the campaign keynote speech of .\lr. Mackenzie King. "He loves to rail about usurpers and to bo doubled up with constitutional pangs," Mr. Melghen added. "Whenever Mr. King is out of power the constitu- tion is in tiangor." .

“Mr. King complainet." went on Mr. Melghen, “that we insulted Parliament by securing dissolution without completing the ‘business of the session and having formal pro- rc-gatlon. lf this is so. Sir Wilfrid Laurier insulted Parliament also in 1011. for the dissolution then was just as sudden; there was no formal prnrogatlou, no finishing of huslnoss—the members learned of ldissoiuiinn in the corridors and on the streets. No one then com- plained of Parllwment being insult- ed because there was no one in polities at that time who had ‘Chronic Constitutional Piilehliis.
