Fortmost among the veterans is Licut. Desmond Burke, former King's prize winner and runner-up on two occasions. The Otiawan, who has also won the Grand Aggregate at Bisiey, considered by many a more outstand- ing win than the King's prize, is making his eighth consecutive trip, a record never before equaled.

waste of money and Isaid so and l say so still. I was not reflecting on these men at all, I'was reflecting on the system; and here is s Pubiio Ae- i. Commltteethat should be do- ing that work and not outsiders.

MR. ARBMIAUIII‘: I submit that this report in the Patriot of April 29, which I hold here purports to be a report of a meeting ofthe Public Accounts Committee and it is with reference to a. statement in thisre- port that we wish [to have informa- tion. -

THE CHAIRMAN: Of course, we can't stop any press report.

Ml’... ARSENAULT: If this state- ment was made here at the meeting and it ls reported u being part of the Proceedings of that meeting, we have a right uow to ask questions u to what. was meant.‘ The accusa lon is made in that statement that the External Auditors did not carry out their work properly, and it ls right that we should hear them In their own defense. '

THE CHAIRMAN: I submit that we have no right at all as a Public Accounts Committee, to" go into an investigation of that kind. If they want an investigation held as to the advisability of an External Audit they should do it in the proper way. We have no right here to hold an: investigation. While that was read‘ at the last meeting, than w" p h; o! general statements that Mr. All. derson wanted to ‘pill in and I don't think that possibly it should have been allowed at. all. but you didn't object. to it.

MR. ANDERSON: I would like to know what it is you are asking about that statement.

THE CHAIRMAN: I don't gmnk we have ally right to open a discus- sioll of tilhtkind ill tllc Public Ac- counts Committee. We have nothing to do with regard to an investigation as to whether an External Audit should bc ileid ur should not be held allll we have no right to trike it upon our shoulders to accuse any Govern- men! previous of not having an audit made rigllt.

MR. ARSENAUUI‘: Why dlfl you. lake the right to ihkc that statement: in illc first place, and include it as' Dart of tile report of the l'ublie Ac- counts Committee? I

MR. ALLEN: It is not included in the report of ihc Committee.

Tl-IE CHAIRMAN: The Patriot reporter was ilerc, but that is all. Anyillin: that. is reported with IQRL (‘m-c lo the opinions of the Auditor, of course, lvc llllve nothing to do with lhal. and it silouldlft be includ-

to reed it and the Committee didn't know what it was.

no opportunity to defend ' ‘ on the floor of the House, but he has taken it upon himself as an Audttor, to put that in the press. If it hurts any person that person has the some privilege of putting his reply in the papers, but no other way.

Anderson this question. It has been said on the floor of the House that certain audits were made behind your back, that you didn't know anything about. ls that ltatelnent corerct’!

THE CHAIRMAN: I submit that that is not a. proper question to ask in the Public Al: ‘ Committee. If you specify your question about this year. you have a perfect right to ask him, but I submit we‘ are not holding an investigation into other years.

MR. ANDERSON: stand your question.

MR. ARSENAULT: I will put my question this way. is it possible for an External Auditor to examine your books and make a report without you knowing abollrit?

MR. ANDERSON: It is quite poss- ible except in the oountilg of the bonds. In my office there are no records kept and if you bring char- tered accountants here they need not come near me except that I would have to go to the Bank and allow them to see the bonds. That is all I would have to do. _

MR. ARSENAULT: Therefore that statement that an External Audit could be made without you preparing a statement _was not absolutely cor- rect? .

MR. ANDERSON: The External Auditors could do it if they wanted to. If they knew their business that: is what they should do.

MR.- ARSENAULT: But no audit. could be complefied without your as-' sistunce?

MR. ANDERSON: Tile only lis- slstance that I would be called llpon to give would be to go to tile Bank

cuuicl courlt tilcln.

MR. ARSENAULT: VVllulll an Ex- ternal Audit be complete without checking (he bonds?

MR. ANDERSON= N0.

MR. ABSENAULT: But it is quite possible for tilem to perform an au- dit of the books in this building without your assistance. or without you knowing anything about it?

MR. ANDERSON: Well, that. is a broad thing to say, without me know- ing anything. Gossip might bring it to my ears, but oiilclally without knowing it.

MR. ARSENAULT: But they could not check the bonds without you

ed at alL. Wc_didn't intend to take any action in the mutter at all.

MR. ARSENAULT: lain rights when we sit here us mcm- i ilcrs of this committee, and w; luv;

bonds counted?

MR. ANDERSON: Not always.

PREMIER. LEA: So there may have been so-calied External Audits in which the bonds have not been accounted and in which you need not have been notified at all.

MR. ANDERSON: One statement that was made here was prepared by myself, and the man came in and looked it over and asked me about the facts and signed his name and

got $75.00 for signing it.

MR. ALLEN: In connection with this investigation the Public Ac- -counts Committee are not supposed to have any investigation that is re- quired or desired: The point I take is that we have not the power to deal with it.

MR. ARSENAULT: You had the power to let certain insinustlons be made. Since they have been made before this Committee, they should be cleared up.

THE CHAIRMAN: But it is not within our rights to hold an invest- igstion as to how the External Aud- it is made. We have nothing to do with the External Audit. We are dealing with the Public Accounts for ti-lis year and if there is ally further investigation required, I submit you have a right to ask for the investig- ation but this is not the proper time.

MR. ARSENAULT: You refuse, ‘then, to hear the explanation of Mr. Shannon?

The chairman did not reply. He asked if there were any more ques-

tions to be asked of the ProvincillII

Auditor and immediately thereafter he declared the meeting to_ be ad- jouvned.

RETURNS FROM BUENOS AIRES

Ml: J. Edgar lvihliignn. who has just returned from the British Ex- position at Buenos Aires, gave an interesting account of his visit to a Guardian representative yesterday. Ml’ Miiiigall, as a director of the Canadian National Sliver Fox Asso- ciation, went to Bucnos Aires as their Irepresentative with thirty-one of the best pelts from the ranches of mem- bcrs of the Association, which he sold for very attractive prices right. in Buenos Aires.

The Association had one of the best booths in the building very central, and with its beautiful silver fox pelts in handsome show eases drew crowds visitors every day. Mr. Miiligan expressed the opinion that there was a splendid opsnlng for Canadian fur !companies to sell their silver fox furs to the people in the Argentine Re- public and especially in Buenos Alres, where the people dress exceedingly ,weli; the city was sometimes called the Paris of South America.

DISCUSSED SILVER FOX INDUS- TRY WITH PRINCE

M1. Mllllgan was presented to the Prince of Wales and Prince George by Sir George Perley, The Prince of Wales was keenly interested in the silver fox industry on the Island and discussed with Mr. M.iiigan the fut- ure prospects of the industry not only here but throughout Canada and the possibility of its development in the South American republics. The Prince agreed with Mr Miliigan that the Exhibition would do a great deal to foster the fur trade between Canada and the Argentine, and congratulated the Association on their enterprise in having the booth with some of the finest furs he had ever seen.

_Mr. Miiligarrs impression of the Prince and his brother were that they were very well informed on every subject and inifrcsted themselves in, every part of the Exhibition. Mr. Milligan was vcry interested in a re» pilca of York House and St. James Palace which were especially erected at the Exhibition in honor of the ,Prinee of Wales. The Scottish Band fend dancers who gave concerts and jexhibitlons of Scot|1.',‘1 dances was also {an interesting feature of the exhibi- tion in the opinion of Mr. Milligan.»
