There was no reason why he and Mr. MacLean should not carry Queen's two seats in the next election. Mr. MacLean. though ha had had only six weeks in which to campaign during the last election had polled more votes than one of the Liberal candidates. This time, with an op- portunity to visit all the electors. Mr. McLure said he felt confident ithat when he went to Ottawa after the next election he would have Mr. MacLean with him.

Mr. MacLean thanked the elec- tors of Queen's for having given him his second chance. "I shall do nil in my power to justify your faith in me." Mr. MacLean said. "In all fairness to me. you have suld by your vote that you believe I can do a better job next time and I may say that I feel sure I can. I am going out to win with Mr. Mc- Lure so that Queen's will have two Progressive-Conservative represen- tatives in the next election."

Mr. Wood thanked- the electors for the support they had given his nomination on such short notice. He congratulated Mr. McLure and Mr. MacLean on their election and pledged them his hearty support.

essrs. McLure and MacLean be made unanimous. The motion was seconded by Mr. MacRae who also

port they had given him. Hon. Dr. MacMillsn

The Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MacMlllan in an able address reviewed the benefits the people of the Province had derived under Provincial Con- servative Governments. Dr. Mac. Millon referred to the $100,000 the Province had receive from Ottawa under the Mathieson Government; the $125,000 the Province had re- celved as a result of the Duncan Commission and the $150,000 it had received under the White Commis- sion. Those were real benefits, Dr. hlacliiillan said, such as no Liberal Government had ever given to the Province and involved no giving away of the rights of the Province.

Dr. fvlacMillnn said that under a Dominion Government headed by Hon. George Drew, Prince Edward Island was assured of ‘far more recognition financially and politi- cially than it was receiving under the present Liberal mlsrule. The Island's transportation facilities would be enlarged and the Prov- ince would be assured of represen-

lng ignored as it is today.

A vote of thanks. moved by Mr. McLure and seconded by lvlr. Mac- Lean. was tendered the Queen's County Progressive - Conservative organization for the splendid men- ncr in which thc convention was conducted.

Three resolution were passed unanimously. The first expressed confidence in the Hon. George Drew's national leadership of the Progrcasive-Conservailve party; the second stated the confidence of the convention in the Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MucMlllan as leader of the Pro- vincial Progressive - Conservative party; and the third congratulated Mr. Mcluure for the splendid work he “as doing ill Oiluvvu ll\ stand- ing up for ihc rights of the pcoplc uf lilo Provlncd.

BERLIN. Nov. M-A Commun- ist drive to getlail occupation troops out of Germany was launched tonight.

‘The German Peoples‘ Council, a Communist front organization and possible forerunner of an Bast German parliament. apparently was voicing the Kremlin! policy when it. demanded:

1. An immediate par-lay by the Big Four Foreign Minis- ters Council to set up mach- inery to write a final peace treaty for Germany.

Z. Removal of aILocoupatiosi- troops within s. year after the treaty is signed. '

Widely heralded as an import- ant announcement a day in ad- vance by the Soviet-licensed news IIQMY A.D.N.. the demand ap- PI-Yflllly had the full approval of the Russians. In effect it eon- firmed that the Russians want ivfiywle to pull out. of Germany, as the Russians did in Korea. Once they have Communist police state machinery set. up in the eastern zone.

The campaign for a. Foreign Ministers Council meeting, in any event. apparently headed for a stumble. The Western Powers have refused repeatedly to rs- ccnvene the Council to negotiate on German questions as long as the Soviet blockade of Berlin con- tinues.

The demand for negotiations on a German peace treaty was voiced in the People's Council by om Nuschke. official of the Commun-

WANTED — CHILD'S FOLDING

TORONTO.» Nov. M -- (GP) -—- The Alder-man's face was red, but he had brought it s.1l on himself. And he admitted it readily.

The Alderman — Harold Fish- lelgh —- appeared before Toronto's Board of Control today with a petition signed by 34 Young Street businessmen to evict a group of Gypsies.

He said the Gypsies had set up a residence and fortune-telling establishment in the building that houses his real estate office. “We've got .a by-law against fortune-telling but they claim palm-reading is not fortune-tell- ing." Mr. Fishlelgh said.

Walled the Alderman yesterday: "Why. I was ‘the one instrumental in having the lay-law passed pro- hibiting fortune-telling on Young Street." The street in Toronto's

main artery.

But worse: Alderman Fishleigh had rented the offices to the Gypsies, who returned from Hall- fax a few weeks ago after com- plalnlng police made it “too hot" for them there.

Mr. Fishleigh said the Gypsy King had told him the offices were to be used as a photography studio. That was before he knew the tenant was a Gypsy.

The Alderman added to his tale of woe before the Control Board: "Their lawyer says they've got. tenants‘ rights because they did pay some rent. So we have to give them a month's notice for eviction. We've done that. Three times. But they have so many names. and m many fictitious names, we never know if we've given the notice to the right people.”

“And these Gypsies have money. I think they're buying the building. My offices are in the building. I'm likely to become their tenant.” Worse still: Passing the Gypsy Palmlstry Emporium, the Alder- man reported. he heard a. tap on the window and a Gypsy girl tried to entice him inside.

Mayor Hiram McCallum said: "We'll do what we can."

Mr. Stewart said he felt it was a good idea for the ladies to meet in the Legislature. “If more wom- en occupied chairs during the les- islatlve sessions, it would have an ameliorating effect on parlia- mentary proceedings."

"No appointment for Supervisor had yet been made." started Mr. Stewart. "as the Department was endeavouring to find the best possible person for such an im- portend: job."

A vote of thanks was tendered the Department of Agriculture through the Minister for the fac- ilities provided.

Mrs. Malcolm MracLeod, Lorne Valley, spoke briefly on “Citizen- ship and its Relation to Women's Institutes."

The weekly market report is- sued by the" Department of Agric- ulture was highly recommended. “Institutes and the Farm" was the subject of Mrs. M. J. Doyle, North Rustico in which she stress- ed the intelligent study of rural living conditions towardsthelr im- provement. She felt that steps should be taken to develop the self- ccnfidence of rural youth. many of whom appear to suffer from nn in- feriorliy complex.

Mrs. Blair Andrew. New Glas- gow continued the discussion with an appeal for the encouragement of music, drslna, arts and handi- crafts in the schools, and attractive surroundings in the home. In ask- ing that handicraft teachers should be provided. she suggested that scholarships in this work should be given to girls who would return to teach. A resolution was adopted calling on the Provincial Exhibition

Association to provide space for women's work. On the subject of "Music and

Drama" Mrs. Harold Laird. Kelvin Grove, spoke of the difficulties in transportation. finance and teach- ers in connection with lust year's Drama and Musical Festivals. So- lutions were discussed.
