in moving the Address Tlie Gov- ernment intends to proceed with the establishment of a. plant where fish meal will be manufactured frlom the by-pi-oducts, he contin- e .

The mover offered congratulations to the speaker, the Lieutenant Governor and others and also paid tribute to the deceased members who had passed away since the last sesssion. Special reference was made to the passing of the Gover- nor General, Lord Tweedsrnulr.

In his address, the speaker re- ferred to the Royal Ylsit and the unavoidable outbreak of war, de- spite the efforts of the British na- tion to plsvent it.

He said that the Government was endeavoring to obtain reduced freight rate on feeds lo assist the farmer in the production of live-

stock.

Mr. Robinson declared that the Youth Training courses were en- abllng young people to learn a trade and encouraging them to re- mnln at home.

He said that the financing of the sinking fund was successful but “problems of a greater magnitude are now to be faced due to the outbreak of war." Economics are as essential as man power in the géesent conflict, and people must so

War Work

“I know it is idle hours that pmvide the greatest danger, phys- ically, morally and mentally, and it is the duty ctf the auxiliary services of v/hich the Y. M. C. A. is a lead- er to see that these hours are tak- en u pby clean entertainment." S0 spoke Mr, J. P. Hillion at the regu- lar weekly meeting of the Char- lottetown Rotar! Club in the Charlottetown H; tel yesterday, The speaker gave a detailed > ac- oou-nt cit the various activities of the Y. M. C. A. carried on during the last war and told also of how it ‘has opened its doors and com- plete services to the soldiers and sailors not only in Canada, but al- so in England and France. The comforts o1 the men are supplied ay the maintenance of can-teens, the organization cf games and athlet- ics, concerts and movies, educa- tional and religious programmes. Mr. Hilllon said lie wished to cor- rcot an impressicn which has galli- ed widespread belief to the effect that the Y‘. M. C. A. overcharged for its services. Throughout the Wh0l¢ of the war the selling prices ln the Y. M. C. A. canteens were fixed by the British Army author- ities, and urere generally lower than such gocd-a bougiht in limgland and France. The Canadian Y. M. C. A. operated 25 to 50 canteens in the Canadian Corps area, as far forward as transportation and rea- sonable protection could be pro- vided. Soldiers were protected a- gainst exploitation by printed price lists in each canteen, and it- ls significant that very few com- plaints oli’ overcharging were made to Y. M. C. A. officers or through other units. All the forward con- ieens were under the direct obser- vation of the enemy, and the transport of supplies and the main- tenance olf a. day and night service tried the coinage, endurance and temper of the soldiers assigned to this duty for any long period Be- ginning in 1917, the Canadian Y. M. C. A. made it voluntary arrange- ment whereby 5'3 of the total sales in each division would be remit- ted to the C. O.’s of the different units for the purpose 0f purchasing supplementary rations such as meat, vegetables or anything which could be procured as required.

considerate and guard their re-

urces. Belief that the tourist industry was producing American exchange which can be used for war pur- poses, was expressed by Mr. Rob- inson, and he felt that for this reason the hard surfacing of high- ways was quite justified. Special attention should be given to vill- ages in the hard surfacing pro- gram, he said. He expressed ap- preciation of services rendered by the Tourist Association and Mr. Justice Arsenault.

He stressed the need for furvller assistance to agriculture to give the farmers a. chance to help the Em- pire in the war. He also advocated the increased production of wheat for home use and the by products for poultry feed.

Mr. P. A. McIsaao

"The heavy burden 0f 911W‘! debt and accumulation of interest charges is our most serious pro- blem and for that reason it is very important that our pledge to the most rigid economy consists in cf; flclency being carefully observed.

Wan-m commendation of the Y's policy of free handouts of comforts to men in the front 112185 was also voiced by the speaker. At eleven points the energetic officers were able to establish their cquipment cl-cse 0n the heels of the advance at Vimy Ridge acid throughout the day and the following night served without charge, hot drinks. cigarettes and other supplies to the streams of wounded who were coming cut, and to the lines of reinforcements which were going in is but one inltance of the cour- ageous work carried on.

Dee-ling briefly with the present war, almost before the first sol- diers begun to assemble in bar- racks, the first huts were getting ready to open, and all facilities in Y. M. C. A. buildings from P. E. I. to B. C. were made available to en- listed men. He said further that the Beaver Club in London which aw. famous as a meeting place for Canadian men during the 1914-18 struggle is again cpen and is being operated under the direct super- vision clf ilhe Canadian Y. M. C. A. wlho are assuming the entire cost (Q iv; operation. The speaker closed by appealing for the genrrvll! 8WD- port of tlhc Rctarlans and public generally in the forthccming cam-

hls reference to the economy pledge with farming and flshinrr the speaker went on to declare that “prudent expenditure in the de- partments having to do with farm- ing and fishing might 'well in themselvu be an economy.’

Mr. McIsaac wenton to stress the importance of marketing and rural organizations. Canadians he salcl must realize that agriculture was n. “major national concern." 'I'his was an age when bargaining was done collectively and there, was "no use of a. farmer thinking he can do it alone." He strongly supported the development of co-operative methods for agricultural workers, He dealt with the establishment of community gardens to assist the fishermen by way of supplying fresh vegetables. These were con- ducted at Georgetown, Ebbsfleet

and Rustico.

, also emphasized the development of wild fruit, and forestry, and stressed the need .or ground limestone in our soils. He spoke about the importation of supplies of No. 1 seed barley which was distributed at cost price to the larmer.

To encourage the livestock indus- try, the Government had import- ed twelve Clydesdale mares into the Province. He also dwelt on the Dairying, Poultry and Swine in-
