“We renew our esteem and con- fidence in our Provincial Leader.- the Hon. Dr. MacMillan, who. with his able colleagues. administered the affairs of the Province within the most trying period of econo-, mic depression known in the} world's lllStflfy, and with a record of honest government and patrly otic effort without an equal in our provincial history.

“We commend the caution as, wcll as the prudence of the presq ent Government. which, after a‘ diligent search of the Books of; Accounts and records of depart-J merits, and failing to discover dc-i fault or evidence of incompetency on the part oflthcir predecessors} had sense enough to avoid the cs tablished Liberal custom of con juring up propaganda scandal, 1'13 which process they envisioned a, most dangerous pitfall confrotit-, iiig them with fatal political reirl-l billion. l

Tribute to Mr. Bennett

The following tribute to the Rt.) Hon. Mr. Bennett was read amid. loud applause by the chairman: “Dear Mr. Bennett:

"On behalf of the Liberal-Con- servative Party‘, and many other public spirited people of Prince Edward Island, it is my great pleasure to extend to you i; most, cordial welcome. This pleasure is intensified by the knowledge that you have recovered your health to enable you to continue as our leader, and to devote your great talents and invaluable services to your people and your native land.

"Time. the great arbiter of events, has demonstrated to acer- tainty that the electoral reverse of i935 was not due to any failure of policy or deficiency of administra- tion. The measurcs adopfed and methods devised by your Govern- ment to meet conditions of flniin- cial panic and national adversity. have, in as far as they escaped molestation by the succeeding Government, proven to be the bcst that skill could devise and keen foresight inaugurate to contend against that world wide depression which in intensity had no parallel in the world's history.

“In those days of international calamity there were many tlious- ands in Canada, as elsewhere, out of work and in need. The electors were deluged with promise; and Pledges incapable of fulfillment,

MR. BENNETTS ADDRESS

"My first wordsflsald Mr. Ben- nett. “must be words oflthankful- ness to you for the kind address ivliich you have just read to me,

I but I should like. before I proceed,

to thank you not only for that expression of confidence, but for this magnificent convention. Icon- gratulate you from the bottom of my heart for having come here to- day in such numbers. I do not recall that I have ever seen a. finer convention than that wliichi I see before me this afternoon”! (Applause). - "I congratulate you not. only on: your numbers, but on the repre-j scntative nature of your conven-l tion; on the faces before me of men and women who are anxious about their country's affairs, who are concerned about its business. are interested in its welfare; who

that come after them as well as of the immediate future. That is

apparent from the tone of the meeting. "When I heard Mr. Miirley

speak I reflected that he had been in campaigns now for sixty-nine years. ‘Phat is a long time, and his being here today is for the purpose of indicating that he is still as profoundly concerned in all that affects the welfare of the people of this Island.

“Ladies and gentlemen. what brings you here today? Deep down in the heart of every man and woman in this country there i5 a. desire to do something for the land in which they were born or make their home. Some may do it in one way, some in another, but everywhere I have been I have seen an earnest desire on the part of our Canadian citizens tomake

some contribution in their life-

time to the well-being of ' their country. "You in this beautiful Island
