N o te To Girl Contained T72 reat To “Get Even ”

Police revealed today that Thelma Gauthier. 22-year old girl who was attacked and left unconscious by the side of the Itfaljnque Road. had received an anonymous threatening letter the day before she was in- jured.

Signed by "A Friend," the note contained the threat to "get even" with the North Rustico girl, who stubbornly refuses to name her at- tucker.

For l8 hours she lay in hospital here after a. bus-driver picked her up by the side of the road, uncon- scious and bleeding from slight wounds which looked like pen- knlfe slashes. '- ‘Police grilling of the girl resulted in throwing little light on the case. She named ~a man who left for Boston three years ago and who is not in the province now, police stated today. They believe the name’ she gave was fictitious.

All summer Miss Gauthier work- ed at a hotel at Brackley Point. She was visiting at the home of her uncle snd aunt in Charlottetown Saturday and had gone out driving with an unknown companion Sat- urday night. Her relatives knew little of her movements and could give no intimation of who her attacker might have been.

The wounds were not serious. One sleeve of her coat was cut as

if by a. knife. She was discharged from hospital last. night. And since she has retained a tight-lipped sil- ence about the affair police said today they were as much in the dark as ever.

But the plan, it was authorit- atively learned tonight, is ncl; like- ly to depart in any substantial measure from the Paris propossls. Alike in the Assembly debate and in private negotiations the menace of war in East Africa dom- inates the scene. Sir Samuel Hon-re, British Foreign Secretary, led the wsy in s speech startling almost in its wltspoken frankness. He left no doubt that the British Ctovem- rnent snd the British people stood by the Covenant snd the whole of the Covenant.

Collective Action

But if the obligations of the Covenant were to be borne. they must be borne collectively. "If risks for peace are to be run," sold Sir Samuel, "they must be run by all. The security of many cannot be ensured solely by the efforts of a few. however powerful they may be.

"On behalf of His Majesty's Government in the United King- dvm I can say they will be second to none in their intention to ful- fill within the’ measure of their capacity the obligations which the Covenant lays upon them."

The British Foreign Secre y emllhcsized his belief that failure t° hi!" the I-fliklie Covenant will throw responsibility on all mom. bers. If the League fails. he said. "it is because the members luck either the will 0r the power u; m]. fill their obligations."

A majority of the delegates to- night expressed approval of the firmness and restraint of Sir Sum- uel’: speech.

"We believe." he declared, "that, small nations have a right to the life and protection that can be furnished them collectively with s view to maintenance of their nst- ional life- We believe that back- ward nstions, without prejudice to their independence and integrity, have a. right to expect this gm brought by the more advanced Dwples in the development of their resources and estsbiishment 0f their national life."

The claim that distribution of natural resources gives certain countries unfair advantages we; "my partly true Sir Samuel said. Britain conside ed an inquiry m- to means of providing more equjt. able distribution desirable and W55 ‘W-dy to take her part in such an mvesflkation. Such an investi-

Sums Up Stand

In conclusion, he said: "In con- formity with its precise and ex. plicit obligations the league ‘WW5 Ind my country stands with it for collective maintenance n; the Covenant in its entirety par- tlCl-llflrly for steady collective re. sistance to all acts of unprovoked Blfifressfon."

T0 MEET IN MONBTUN MUN.

Imvplortant Problems

ill Be Discused W i t h Transporta- tion Commission.

ST. JOHN, Sept. 11.-The meeting of potato shippers snd government marketing officials with the Mal-i- timg Transportation Commission in Moncton next», Monday will consider a problem thst is looked upon as “one of thermal. important rate case matters that has confronted the Maritimes, outside of the pas- sing of the Maritime Freight Rates Act, itself," slid Rand H. Matheson, traffic oflicer of the commission, at Moncton yesterday.

Representatives of the government departments of agriculture of the three provinces, potato growers and commission members will review to- gether the situation that has arisen through the railways granting a five per cont IOO-pounds reduction on potato transportation from On- tsrio snd Quebec points. , The Maritimes, he pointed out. desire s. corresponding reduction from here to Ontario and Quebec. Mr. Mstheson and C. J. Bul-cheli, K.C., of Halifax, solicitor for the commission, have been preparing a brief on this matter which will be submitted to the Board of Railway Commissioners.

Mr. Mathecon said the commission is asking for a. meeting of the rail- way commissioners to be held in Moncton around the third week of October, when the Maritimes’ case would be presented.

Tile purpose of next Monday's conference, he continued, is to or- ganize the shippers to go over the case in full and to select witnesses to appear before the railway com- miseio-rlers.

Stevens Appeals To Mui n e r s,

Steel Workers

(CI. by Guardian's Special wire) SYDNEY. Sept. 11—(C.P.)—The present Dominion subvention on

l/Laritime Province coal, in its pres-

ent forms, is “merely a sop,” Hon. H. H. Stevens. Reconstruction Party leader told an audience including many miners and steel workers. here tonight. At any time it might be withdrawn, leaving the Maritime

coal industry without means to get

info Canada's central markets.

The subvention should be given permanency. It should last at least as long as the government sponsor- ing it, thus putting the industry in- to s settled position.

In the centre of Cape Brown's steel and coal industry, the Re- construction Party leader again laid down the principle that Mari- time Provinces sre entitled to ac- oesa to central markets. Ha applied this also to the fishing industry onoe again declaring his party would appoint a fisheries control board to see fair play for fisher- men if retumed to power.

To Rev. Father M. M. Goody. Antigonish, Mr. Stevens paid high tribute for his (lo-operative work on behalf of fishermen.

“lt is concentration of capital and credit in a few hands unscrup- ulously applied, that is the curse of the country." Mr. Stevens asserted. Neither Prime Minister Bennett nor Mr. King had offered any solu- tion for unemployment. He pre- dicted the farmer's pension scheme for men over 60 years would give in each beneficiary .75 pel- cent or $245 in provinces where old age pensions were effective. "Where they're not in effect. you're out of luok."

As for Mr. King, "He is saying he shouldn't hsve an Itslo-Ethio- plan wsr unless Parliament is sit-- ting. We should ask them to hold off until the session‘!

Mr. Stevens will leave for meet- ings at Pork Hswkesbury and New Egsgpw tomorrow.

Capitalism was the servant of the people and must not be their master. Where capitalism was right- it should bu‘ applauded. where wrong corrected. Capitalism could be wrecked quickly but reformed only slowly. One mod act could bring Communism down on the country and only this summer a determined effort had been made by capitalism's arch enemy to de- stroy ll.

twenty-eight sub-divisions, a, re-. count of their many and varied activities since last coming toge- ther, and I would ask you, dear members, to be sincere snd earnest irl your deliberations, giving to all questions the benefit of your ex- perience and intelligence. Let us enter into our work with one mind. putting aside selfish considerations and l membeling only our motto, under the Seal of the Owns.

l-Iow ma-ny of us realize the in- spiratlon and meaning contined in it-the Cross, surrounded by s Cir- ole. the Maple Leaf, Canada's Em- blem. The words for God and Con- ada. The Cross is the symbol of redemption. of Hun Who died for mercy, truth and justice. The Cir- cle typifies an endless chain of ser- vice, an all-embracinglsisterhoad of Catholic Women. founded on a. ba- sis of charity, kindness snd love for one another. The inscription means simply faith and service.

As your representative to the Ne- tlonal Convention, I had the oppor- tunity of hearing presented snd dis- cussed the many important works with which the League is associated. and the problems with which‘ it is confronted. The encouraging words of -our Honorary National Chaplain, Archbishop O'Brien of Kingston. Ontario, who was present, were a source of inspiation to all who heard him. l-le- himself ‘was en- thused by the magnitude of our achievements, and the tremendous influence we wield as our numbers grow. He recommended the educa- tional work of the Study Club movement, asking that we famil- iarize ourselves‘ with the Papal En- cyclical. the names and significance or Vestments. and theluse of the Mussel.

"wily," asked His Excellency. "is not every one of our women a member of the Catholic Women's League? You are a large factor in the solid, armor required to make our country safe from the spirit of Communism which is prevalent." If. is rather difficult indeed to under- stand und answer. why this Rp- parent indifference. our organiza- tion has been blessed in an espec- ial manner by our Holy Father. from its very beginning, when he said: “I bless the Catholic Wom- en's League, I bless all its mem- bers. collectively snd individually. I wish you to devote yourselves to the Family-the centre of all good, through which will come the re- storation of the world." Every one of our women should deem it an honour and a privilege to belongto such sn organization. and to this end. our members should conform to the standard of excellence re- quired, which is, first and greatest. that of Christian perfection. Every woman has her own particular tsl- ent. or ability along certain lines. and there is room enough in the many forms of our activities. for the individual exercising of such. I would advocate a more. wide-spiced knowledge of the by-lswr, end ev- ery member should prcrurc a copy and become familiar with the rules governing corrert procedure. This knowledge, coupled with an intelli- gent understanding of the aims and objects of our organization. will en- able all to give. one might say, a reason for the faith that is in them. To quote the word; of Arch- bishop McNeill of sainted memory. in making an appeal for a wider fellowship among Catholic women: "I would like to think of the Cath- olic Women's League as something ls large as Canada itself, snd as all-embracing its the divers races in it."

let us all, by oui-‘chsrity, co- operation in sll good works for church andcountry. and in the high moral standard of our lives. show thlt we are worthy of being members of a society upon which His Holiness his bestowed the AP- ostolic benediction.

Better Credit System Needed

It was trite to any that the para.- oox of poverty amidst plenty was due in faulty distirbution. Some of the proposed cures for the evil had merit but the one which had the best chance was u better sys- tem of credit.

Ulberal leader King had depart- ed from the settled policy of Lib- eralism by speaking of credit changes. He had done so because of demands from the left wing of his party but he had made no clear statement. Mr. King shryuld ex- plain "what it was all about."-

“I believe in a. measure of om- trolled inflation. [For instance, I believe that Canada's departure from the gold standard has been manifestly to the advantage of Canada and I am against lmy plan which would impose ‘u hn our fiscal system an inflexibility likely to‘ in- terfere with its proper regulation in terms of whatever may be be- fore us internationally in the 171-711- etary future.

"I believe in easier credit. I be- lieve in lower interest rates, bunk rates. mortgage ratm. Interest which was fair enough in prosper- ous days. in these times of hard- ship comes periloudy close to usury.
