Ian MacKcnzi-l (U5- Vancouver Centre) asked when the government would announce its re- lief policy and Mr. Gordon said it would be disclosed in the bill. Replying in Hon. Charles Marci! (Lib. Bonaventure), Mr. Gordon said the Federal government had decided not to participate in the £0,000,000 colonization scheme which the Quebec government has under wuy. ‘Phr matter had been given careful consideration, he said. and while futurc events lliigllli lead the government lo change its stand thedecl-sion nowwasuottoassiat as the Quebec scheme was a largo state-aid settlement plan.

Crete Likely To Be Proclaimed ‘Separ- ate State by Venize- los Rebel Chieftain.

(C. R-Havas)

ATHENS, March l1.—The Greek revolt in Macedonia and Thrace was shattered to- night and Premier Pangiotis Tsaldaris announced the gov- ernment would turn its atten- tion to recapturing the Island of Crete, where former Pre- mier Eleutherios Venizelos, rebel leader, is said to have set up rm independent repub-

ic. '

The three principal main- land rebel strongholds of Seres, Drama and Kavalla fell into government hands and the rebels, it was repor- ted, were in full flight. Gen- eral Demetrius Kamanos, re- bel military chief in Mace- donia and Thrace, escaped into Bulgaria, the semi-offic- ial Athens news agency an- nounced tonight. Despatches from Bulgaria said that a general (apparently Kama- lnuels..aud_.19 lesser oﬁicers of the rebel army had requested asylum in Bulgaria.

right despatch, said General Dem- etrius Kamanos had crossed the Bulgarian border with 18 other rebel officers and the governor of Thrace and surrendered himself to Bulgarian authorities.

“It was indicated, although not confirmed, that former Premier Venizelos had accepted the defeat of his Macedbni and Thrace fol- lowers and will proclaim Crete a separate state. The fate of M. Panayotopmrlos, second in oom- mand of the rebels. remained somewhat obscure, although the governor of Thrace had reported that he killed himself.)

At. Kavaila the 2,000-tou cruiser Heile, second largest ship of the Greek Navy, which had been in rebel hands was recaptured by the government

As her crew reported after their officers fled. that they had been unwilling rebels and were ready to support the government, loyal of- ficers were put in charge of the warship, which was ordered to Kassandra, at the mouth of the Gulf of saionlka, to await further orders.

A laconic dlﬂlllioh ffOXh 438118111 Ghialistra, commander of the gov- ernment advance suard, told the war ministry at 3 p.m. that the loyal troops were masters of Macedonia and Thrace, which meant the virtual end of the revolt on the mainland.

Liberal political meeting last Opposition leader’s attention

tent of $3,000,000—was one of debate on the Draft Address,

Mr. Sharp followed Mr. J. P. Mcq Intyre, Liberal elf-Minister of Pub- lic Works. in the debate, and in the half-hour at his disposal before ad- lournment dealt particularly with the government's achievement in implementing its 01d. Ase Pensions pledge, in obtaining subsidy read- justment, and. hundreds of thou-

reiief. 1hr‘ presentation before the‘ White Commission alone, he pointed out, means that the Province re- ceives, for all time to come, a sub- sidy increase of $150,000 annually over the interim payment awarded under the Duncan Commission m-

rt.

It was at this point that Mr. Sharp recalled a statement made by the Oppmition leader. criticising as “plcnlcs" the trips the Government members had been making to Ot- tawa. In their two weeks‘ stay at Ottawa, the Premier and Attorney General had possibly spent about $200 each in hotel and other costs. This, Mr. Sharp reca1ied_ was about the amount spent by the hon. mem- ber from Rustico (Mr. leParzcr at the Exhibition in ‘Ibronto, when, as a member of the Saunders-Loci Gov- ernment, "he spent ten days there, advertising New Brunswick pota- toes.” (Daughter).

PROFITABII “MONK”

“The result of the "Picnic" which the Premier and Attorney General had of Ottawa," said Mr. Sharp, "is that for all time to come this Province receives 5410.03 per dly. The leader of the - ,|IOI-ll0ll may say this was another "picnic," but he cannot deny that it was a profit- able one to Prince Edward Island." He had looked up the word “plcnic" in the dictionary, and found that it meant ‘a short Oxctlrsion into the country by a pleasure party taking their own provisions." In this case. the delegates did not take their own provisions.

m. Lea said he had been refer- ring to delegatiom in general as "plcnlcsP-ozm to this delegation.

Mr. Sharp said he unders‘ Iuu the Opposition leader had been resting up a good deal during the last four years; he had been diverting him- self in his home by reading and listening to the radio. No doubt “Amos and Andy," and Eddie Can- tmnhadtuiusnupagood dealof his time, while government affairs were goim forward.

ma, the rum of $168,886." (Ap- plause). Realizing that the small land-

holders were in need of supplem- enting their comings, the Govern- ment undertook another "picnic" to Ottawa, "with the result,” said Mr. Sharp, “that in I932 we got $124,- 730 of purely Ftldersl money (or the working men, for the labourers of this Province. In addition to that we got 511,864 of direct relief. We also got $12,728 on Falconwood salvage. or a total, in 1932, o! $148,- 322." (Applause).

More "Picnics"

“In 1933 We did Mt forget the people who put us hore-—ti1e man in the country who still was labor- ing under the disability of not being able to pay his bills from the pro- duct of the farm. so We made extra labour on the roads and bridges. We made another ‘picnic’ to Ottawa and were instrumvntalln obtaining $93,832." For direct re- lief we scoured 512,235. 0n this last trip that the Premier and Attor- ney General made to Ottawa, we got $15,000 on tho labour cost of Falconwocd Hospital-making a to- tal of Ir'i’"l'il contributions to be

“In other words. we obtained in four years 5570.981 from the federal government fm- these purposes-over half a million dollars. That ls the result of those ‘picnics’ that the leader of the Opposition takes e;- ceptlon to.”
