' Highway Act Passes Without a Division OTTAWA, .lilly 2.-After fighting the ilighways Act all day, tooth and nail, the opposition suddenly collaps- ed l-lte tonight and this controversial measure passed through nil three stages without-evcn rl division. ' Tile opposition to the bill was most deter- mined zlnd, an one.time, it looked ns if it was hopeless to get the lnellsllre through. Not only did the Llibernls oppose the bill, but they were vigor- ousl-y supportell hy Dr, Michael (‘lnrk, from the cross benches, and A. I.. Davidson, of Annapolis, one- of thc gov- crnluent whips. An alnentlment, mov- cd by Sir Robert Borden at the llsl minute, helped to smooth out tho op- position, ns far as the government was concerned. He proposed that the work should be let by tender anll con- trllct, except where the two govern ments should otherwise agree. The opposition from the govern- ment bcncbcs was largely on the ground that the provincial govern- ments could use the subsidies for pol- itical patronage purposes. This sni- isfled the government malcontents and the Liberals \vho had been opposing the bill evidently did not want to face :l vcte and the bill then slipped tllroultii SVPTY Sfllfie without zl li-ivisi-on. No Ships For *S A Coal Trade OTTAWA. July Il.-Sir Robert Borden read ill the liouse two telc- grams which had passed regarding the failure to return shipping formerly cn- gnged ln the St. Lawrence coal tr-alla. One was a cable he had sent to Sir George Perley asking him to convev formal notification to the British Government that failure to return ships formerly engaged in the St. Law. renee coal carrying trade was serlcus- lv affecting the i-ullustrlnl situation in Nova Scotia anti other provinces and adding greatly to dlifllculty of unem- ployment. The other lvcls thc gist of tl. statelnent matic in the British House of Commons and was sent by Lord Milner. lt was to the following effect: "Tile Shipping Controller states that all vessels referred to except one were OW/H011 in the United Kllllgdom, prior to requisition having been time char- tered to the Dominion Coal Coln- pany. These charters were prltvale' contracts n_nd the relations between the owners and time-clrarters were mutter with which the Slllpplllg (‘.on- trollcr was not concerned. Last winter it became llecessalg' as part of gen- eral Allied fooll programme to send several of these vessels, as well ns ll large number of others requlsitloned to lond wheat for Australia European service, for which their size made them particularly suitable. Owners were not consulted or even informed llntll after order had been issued by Shipping (‘ontrollcr. Tile suggestion tllat this was done to assist owners to avoid the completion of contracts entirely without foundation. Of the flve vessels in which the Dominion Coal Company are interested three are already released from requisition and owners of the remaining two oi- .fered release as soon ns present cargo is discharged" , 'Sir Robert Borden commented on the above: "The dlfllculty which we have felt with regard to the situation is that the despatch of these vessels to ports so far distant necessarily prc- vents their utillzation in the St. Law- renee coal carrying trade which lasts only during the season of navigation.
