Hon. J. D. Stewart Makes Emphatic Statement AWith Regard To His

Order-In-Council.

A frantic endeavor is still being made in some _parts of the Province to misrepresent Hon. J. D. Stewarfs attitude on the Prohibition question. It is being claimed that Mr. Stewart has given no assur- ance that he will not introduce Government Control of liquor by Oiifléf-ill-COIIIICI-l if elected to power. This l8 absolute misrepresentation, as the following ex.

tract from The Guardian of May 22, 193i, plainly shows:

_ Speaking at the Conservative convention in Summer- side on Wednesday night, Hon. _J. D. Stewart, Conserv-

_ _ County to the effect {that the Conservatives, if elected at the coming general ‘elections, would put’ Government Control into effect by Order-in-Council. THIS PROPAGANDA MR. STEWART ZBRANDED AS ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE. Such action,

he declared, would be a violation of the statutes of the Province.

U s d‘ The members of the Liberal Government,” he added, ha"? Juldglllg‘ us by their own standards. Because they “ave a tered the statute law and have taken power to _cmselves to increase the gasoline tax by Order-in-Coun.

As compared with the previous treaty, the present one, is inﬁnitely more comprehensive. Whereas under the old arrangement Canada secured preferences in only some 28 items, and the British preference in only founytho Do- minion now secures the British preference under 416 of the 433 items which comprise the Autralian tarlii’. Im- portant advantages, running up to approximately two shillings per hundred square feet as against the American product, are secured for Canadian lumber, which under the late treaty enjoyed no preferences whatever. Canned ﬁsh, notably tinned salmon, secures an increase in the preference accorded it of from three to-six cents per pound. Canadian newsprint is to go into the Common- wealth free, while a duty of 4 pounds sterling (about $20) per ton is to be imposed on imports from other countries. As compared with the former treaty, the present one embodies some important general features. In the first place it is provided that in valuing an article the only freight rate which can enter into the total is the freight from the point of shipment to the nearest port of exit from the country. Thus the freight to be calculated on an article shipped fromMontrial, would be tho freight from Montreal to the New York State bordeiynotwith- standing that the commodity might lesvo Canada by Vancouver. This concession removes an important source of objection to the old treaty. Another provision of im- portancs is that the treaty cannot bo revoked in whole because of disagreement developing over any one item. agree‘ thatinelthor will impose dumping t er. _ - Australia's shage of the treaty’s beneﬁts consist in a tariff of ﬂvo cents r pound on butter, one cent per pound the old treaty.
