A Liberal Gov ment, however, would "not injure any legitimate industry" by lowering tariffs-and would not take awsy any oi the protection fig? Canadian industry prior to “So far as duties were imposed under Sir Wilfrid Laurierls reg- ime and under the later Liberal Governments." said‘ Mr. King, "all that was done for the good of industry will be preserved and will not be destroyed.

Tariffs

The Liberals might HBVC to proceed gradually in lowering tariffs. he warned. They did not intend “at one full swoop to wipe sway all that the present Govern- ment has done."

An appeal to the women of Prince Edward Island to launch a campaign aimed at beautifying the homes of the countryside was made by Ueuienant Governor George DeBlois in officially opening the annual King's County Exhibition at Georgetown yxterday.

“I give you this slogan for the coming year" said the Lieutenant Governor, "beautify the farm homes by panting flowerr." It would be a source of pride for Is- landers and a source of grcat sot- isfacilcn to the increasing number of tourists visiting the province, Lieutenant Governor DeBlois de- clared.

The fair was c, decided success in every respect. The secretary, Mr. E. B. MiacLaren checked a full list of entries, as practically every class in the prize list was well filled with exhibits of excellent quality.

In the livestock classzs there was a parilcularlv fine showing of Ayr- shire and Jersey cattle, and of sheep and swine.

In the Ayrshire classes, Mr. J. A. Macbeod, Primrose. was the leading winner. while in the Jersey classes Mr. Edward Bulpitt, Rose- neath. carried away the larger share or the plizes. In other live-

Tlhe preachers text was St. John 18:16: “Ye have not chosen me; but I have chosen you; and have appointed you that you should go end bring orth fruit, and your fruit should re- main." The truth of these words was illustrated, he pointed out in the course of the sermon, not only in the life of Bishop MacEachern, but also in the subsequ

and prosperity of the Catholic Church in this province. in reviewing the life of the Bishop, Dr. Mscbelian stated that Angus Bernard MscEachern was bcrn at Kinloch, Scotland, Feb. 8, 1759, and hence was fourteen years of age when his parents, with other settlers, emigrated to Prince Ed- ward Island.

Plea For Peace.

(Canadian Press by Guardian’s Special Wire)

The vital League of Nations session to consider the Italic-Ethiopian controversy began yesterday with Italy de- Itouncing the African Kingdom as unfit for membership in the League, Ethiopia in reply asserted the decision of

the Arbitration Commission in

the Ualual incident, absolv-

ingvboth countries of blame, compelled Italy to seek new grounds for her war-like preparations. Anthony Eden, British delegate, said there could be no

question of any political or

economic conflict between

Great Britain and Italy. He and Premier Laval of France

expressed hope for settlement gue efforts. No Mention of Sanctions

Baron Aloisi, Italian delegate, did not specifically demand Ethio- pia's expulsion from the League. Nor was any mention made oil sanctions. But Italy presented a bulky memorandum, filled with arguments against Ethiopia's con- tinuance in the League.

Surprise was expressed in Addls Ababa at the sudden withdrawal of the Standard-Vacuum Oil Com- pany conceslons. It was also auth- oritatively reported Dr. W. C. Mer- tin, Ethiopian Minister to London, i

spent the past ten days following a. month's campaigning in Western Canada, Mr Stevens spoke in Mais- onneuve Hall. With him_ on the plat-form wiere lvllrs. Stevens and his son Rev. Francis H. Stevens.

The latter will accompany him on his tour through the Maritime Provincesand Quebec.

He went on to indicate some oi’ those things which he expected Mr. Bennett to announce in his forth- coming series of speeches. The Prime Minister would seek to im- press on the people "the serious financial position of our country." He would ascribe this condition to the burden cf the Canadian Na- tional Railway. He would state that a solution must be found 1'01‘ the railway problem.

“Mr. Bennett will hint with a truly Bennettonlan delicacy, that if he is not given ‘a clear majority it will be his duty to form a. na- tional government,’ " said ND’. Stev- ens. I-Ie warned his audience not to be deluded by "blue ruin” talk from the Prime Minister. "Canada is not bankrupt, nor is the Canad- ian Natimal Railways the white elephant its traducers represent it to be."

National Government

The proposal of a national gov- emment would be “but the prelude to a subtle scheme to turn the transportation system of Canada over to a. group of international financiers." he declared. "A natirn- al government created t) solve the railway problem would mean the creation of a great transportation trust which. operating in conjunc- tion with the existing credit and money trust would constitute an economic suzcrain that would de- stroy thc last vestiize 5f democracy in our country. This is no idle dream; it ‘is a. real menace. It may well be a last stand for freedom."

The State Department in Wash-

By George Ilarnbleton Canadian Press Staff Writer GENEVA, Sept. 4—-(C.P, Cable) Benito Mussolini declines to budge. He reserves complete liberty oi ac- tion either to remain in the Lea- gue of Nations, to leave it or to declare war against Ethiopia. And his decision is final and irrevocable. In a press interview tonight,

gate to the League Council meet- ing which began today, added a sting to the pungent statement he made to the council earlier. It was not his statement, Aloisi declared, but that oi the Italian govern- ment. I-Ie personally would remain at Geneva, playing a passive part and watching events, But Italy had said her last word.
