when he had run an election against Mr. LePaze. “These meetings were the finest ever held and I always considered Mr. LePage as a most worthy opponent. He was_ not only a bus- inessman of the highest repute but he was a consistent attend- ant at-church where | believe he was one of the highest givers in harlattetown,”’ Mr. Bell said.

The late Mr. Gallant, Premier Matheson recalled, had been 6 member of the government for eight years. He was quiet and unassuming but he was a person of wise judgment and of the high- est intelligence.

Morley Bell said Mr. Gallant was a worthy representative of his Acadian ancestry. —

Hon. Dougald MacKinnon said he had never met a finer man than Mr. Gallajt. “He would never say an unkind word against anyone and he would rot falsify a statement for any man on earth,” ‘said Mr. MacKinnon.

Frank MacNutt recalled that Mr. Gallant was 4 fine gentle- man whose word was his bond.

Hon. Prosper Arsenault said the Acadian people of Prince Edward [sland in general have lost a very true friend in the person of Marin Gallant. As an inspector of schools he showed a great interest !a the education of the Island people, he said

R. R. Bell described the late Mr. Gallant as one of the most

conscientious members of the legislature.

MR. WIGMORE

Premier Matheson recalled

that the late Thomas Wigmore was first elected to the House in 1919. Mr. Matheson said Mr. Wiigmore would long -be remem bered for the interest he took in seeing that his family received a good education. One of his rons is a prominest doctor in

R. R. Bell said Mr. Wigmore was a successful farmer whose wisdom was widely sought. “He had a happy way of settling dif- ferences among ieighbors when they got into difficuities but perhaps the most admirable thing. about him was that he made sure his family got a high- or education in spite of difficult times.

F. A. Large, Q.C., said he did Pnot know of Mr. Wigmore’s many fine qualities \until he went into the Breadalbane district to run his, election. “He was held in most high esteem, not only by his supporters but by his oppen-

The Speech from the Throne jlacked a constructive purpoce, Mz. Walter R. Shaw, leader of the Progressive Conservative Party in this Province said yes- terday in a statement.

“With a few exceptions it vigorously threshes over old straw. The startling statement that we are in a Depression is real news to top economists and people generally throughout the nation; and why the recent 17 per cent hoist in freight, rates with no reference to the slightly more remote hoists of over 120 per cent under Liberal rule is ménticned, is scarcely worthy of paossing notice.

“The provisions covering agri- culture with one exception lack constructive purpose. The ex- ception, a somewhat obscure re- ference to provision for a farm credit and establishment policy, must have caused some face flushing before final decision was made. For years the Concer- vative Party has introduced and promoted this policy, but always found Government supoocters solidly opposed. Now something is to be done but the sad part of it is, that this inaction ahd dila- tory recognition of Conservative | policy has developed vacant

clicy ‘may be too little and too late, and the way back will pose many difficulties. As far as cur Party is concerned, we will sup- port as usual a strong farm credit and establishment system as well as supporting extension policies that will provide condi- tions ford successful farm opera- tion.

“Other references to agricul- ture lack constructive wunder- standing of our farm problems, and is mainly repetition cf for- mer pious pronounciations. There is little to indicate an under- standing of farm problems, little of important market expansion, little knowledge of our import- | ant potato industry and the need of storage and grading facilities. A potato fieldman is suzgested, but in view of the fact that there is available a proviricial azricul- tural staff; a government ap- pointed Marketing Board; ‘a pot-| ato promotiona! committee head- ed by the Minister of Agricul-| ture; a Federal Table Stock Div- ision with scores of Inspectors; | a Federal Seed Certification |

If the Government | ‘would appoint a good livestock husbandman who would direct cattle, hbg, sheep and poultry work, which it is not now doing and an aggressive marketing ex- port, it would be on the right track.

nounces a Hospital Insuraace Plan, but strange to say, although its own appointed com- mission suggested three methods by which this. project may be financed, not one word is men- tioned in this connection. Our Party favors Hospital Insurance, but we feel our people should be informed of the financial plans covering the project. Two years have elapsed since the Govérn- ment in an almost bankrupt posi- tion agreed to take on this pro- ject. Surely it must now know after such a long restful: perind of reflection and study how this policy involving somewhere in the millions annually ia cost, is to be paid.

I am sure ovr peop’e generally will be glad to know, particularly our farm _ people that some plan reposes some where regarding a constructive road policy. Certainly it did not become visible over almcst & quarter century of Liberzl ad- ministration.
