of the Provincial Drama Festival expressed the appreciation of the Association for the help received from the Little Theatre Guild, tne Brass, radio and special thanks to Patterson's Jewellery who had don- atod all individual prizes for best actors and actresses.

mllowing the evening's perform- ancos. the executive held a recap- tion ior Mr. Robertson at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Patterson. Approximately thirty-five guests were present. and the main topic of conversation seemed to be ways and mean of improving the Drama Festival for next year. Lunch was served, and Mr. Robertson was thanked for the excellent. work he has done at the 1960 Drama Fest- ival, and for the just criticisms he has offered. His remarks will un- doubtedly help competitors in their efforts to resent better entertain- ment in t e field of amateur dra- matics.

Pointing out that economic co- operation was necessary in this age. he said that there was noth- ing really wrong with the capital- istic system but that it had been outgrown by the thinking of the people. The world has changed. he stated. we are living in a streamlined age.

He cited his own experiences in an economy that was tcpsy turvsy and told why he was led to pro- mote the cooperative movement. The record has shown that econo- mic cooperation works. he said.

Education for all was one of the

corner stones of co-operation. he

stated. The other was organisat- ion and co-operative effort. Deal- ing with tho latter he strused that loyalty, honesty. integrity and faithfulness of the members with-

in was an essential. If these practises are carried out it will mean ownership and control by

the people. It will mean control of the money and when the people control the money they earn they will to a large extent control the country. .

"You have gone places. he con- cluded, you can advance farther to the establishment of wholesale stores and manufacturing concerns. We in the co-operative movement must be the balance wheel of our country. There is no reason if we work together why we can not build a. great and noble country."

Rev. Dr. Cosdy

Rev. Dr. Coady reiterated that we are now living in a new age called the decentralized ago and the new economic age. In the de- centralised age he was w”- 'ng, he cited the extension of Cape lsreton Island into a. large rural c

ty.

In illustrating the new onomlc age. he depicted the growth of American and Canadian national incomes over the 17 year period since 1933. American national in- come has grown to 14 times its size in that period and Canlciisa in has increased nearly 500 per cent. he stated.

"Have the incomes of the farm- ers and fishermen increased by nearly 500 per cent?", he asked. When the farmers and workers or- gsnize, he stated. they will be do- ing s patriotic work. "1: they con- tinue to live the same way they will permit the greatest bureau- cracy to grow that ever existed in the world. By organization they will pump down to the masses of the people the money that makes the wheels of industry turn. '

"There is a new world around the corner and It is the job of all to create a free world where ev- eryone will have his fair share. There are two kinds of democracy. he stated. political and economic. and political democracy is nulli- fied without economic democracy.

He outlined the growth of pol- itical democracy and the incoming of economic royalists with the event of the machine age. If we can get economic y. be stated. it will be the last of the freedoms, the freedom of man over himself.

The belief In economic truths. he stated. was necessary for s new society to arise. He enumerated six oi these truths which meant a fair share to all.

outlines Four Steps

For an economic democracy he outlined four steps which should be properly balanced to nchiovn the desired result. These four steps are private ownership by all; lmup action such as collective financing, marketing and producing: social- ization in some things but not in all: and private profit enterprise for the genius.

He warned the people of the ihundering revolution or Cdsnmiuv ism and oncluded by stating "There is no place in North Arn- erica that can answer this threat one well as you can right here by the work you have done."

Other speakers at the meeting were Hon. HJI. Cox, Minister of Public Works. Mr. D. J. Mullin. St. Peter's Bay, Professor Frank Mec- Mlllan of P. W.O. Mr. Eugene Gorn-inn. chairman of the Fisher- Insnta Loan Board. and Mr. J. 0. Dennis. Manager of the Co-op. Un- ion of P. l:. I. and the P.I:.I. Ore- dit Union League.

CHICAGO. May 31-(AP)-Five hundred and seventy-one Ameri- cans died violently in accidents during the four-day Memorial Day holiday week-end.

The death toll included 347 traf- fic victims. a record for the Me- morial Day period. The former re- cord for the holiday was set last year when 253 traffic deaths were counted during a three-day period.

In Chicago, Ned H. Dearborn. president of the Safety Council. termed the traffic death mark "is Memorial Day massac e" and attri- buted it to "slam-bang driving."

In Wiishinghton. however. is spokesman for the American Auto- mobile Associatlon said motorists deserve a pat on thei back for the Memorial Day week-end record.

In addition to the 347 traffic fu- ialities. drowning cook 96 lives and 128 persons were killed in mis- cellaneous accidents.

New Brunswick were the last to be heard.

From one standpoint or another. all of them delivered attacks against submissions of the Cana- dian Pacific Railways 'J. J. Frawley. Alberta counsel, assailed C. P. R. objections to AI-

herta Government proposals in- ciuding: 1. Statutory amend A direct-

ing that freight rates should not discourage secondary industry from locating near sources of primary production.

2. Tightening of the "long-and- short-haul" rule of rail rats- mairing. which prescribes the rates between intermediate

points.

Mr. Frswley told the Commis- sion some of the C. P. R objec- tions to his proposals were "ab- surd." He denied the railway claim that his Industrial location recom- mendation would dislocata indus- try. and its contention that the other suggestion would land so chaos in rate-snaking.
