No Answer On language Issue OTTAWA, Oct. 24-—-The Govern- ment made» no answer when challenged by an Opposition MP. to announce whether it intended to sponsor an amendment to the section of Canada's constitution dealing with language rights. The question, asked by John Diefenbaker (PC-Lake Centre), is understood to refer to‘ persistent reports that Post aster General Rinfret hsd discl sed during Ii public speech in Quebec that the administration planned to amend the constitution to "have ‘the rights of the French language ex- tended to all Canada." In s. personal appeal to Prime Minister St. Laurent, Mr. Diefen- baker asked today for a disclosure of the government's intentions with regard to section 133 of the B.N.A. Act-the section dealing with French language rights. "I aak the Prime Minister, too,” added Mr. Diefenbaker, "is it intended when this address passes this Parliament and finally 5Q- comea law at Westminster, to amend section 133, and if so, in what particulars’! These are quea- tlons the people of this country would like answered. . ." The Prime Minister made lever- al references, a few momenta later. to Mr, Disfenbakel-‘s remarks, but not to this part of his address. Postmaster General Rinfrefls Quebec address, which has at- tracted considerable attentlon here. had stated that Quebec ‘ a of the House cf Commons and the Senate desired to see French lan- guage rights extended throughout the whole Dominion "instead of being restricted by article 133 of the tunnitutlon to Quebec‘ and Ottawa." Mt-jltihfret is reported to have added the assurance that "this will be done when the constitution lg amended." . - leotioa Quoted The section of the constitution reportedly slated for French lan- guage rights raviaiom-Section 133 -atatu: "Either the English or the French language may be used by any person in the debates ‘of the Houses of Parliament of Canada and of the ffoulu of the Legisla- tura of Quebec; and both these languages shall be bled in the respective records and journals of those houses. . .’i'ha acre of the Parliament of Canada and of the Legislature of Quebec shall be printed and published in both thm lanluimlf‘ Restrictions on the use of French led to‘ one of the moat heated pubih controversial of the last century. .

Objective of llniled Nations Discussed Al Iioiarylilub City Rotaiians were given a timely address on the United Na- tions by Mr. Frank MacKinnon, Principal of Prince of Wales Col- lege at their weekly luncheon meeting yesterday. The Rotary Club throughout the world set the day asuie in recognition of the founding of the United Nations. Joint chairmen at the meeting were Rotarians Gordon Ives anti Walter Cox. Guests -present in- cluded Messrs H. Whiteway, U.- SA, I. MacKay, Westville, N5. and Yvon Boudrais, Charlotte- town. Professor MacKinnon in his ad- dress dealt with the principles upon which the United Nations organization is established and the international difficulties which led up to its creation. He also discuss- ed the United Nations organiza- tion itself and indicated some of the ways in which the principles of international cooperation are applied, "The United Nations," ha said. “is designed not as an exciting new game in politics, but as a means of -meeting the challenge presented by the problems of the atomic age-problems which if not solved can destroy the entire hu- man race." He stated that civilization had already passed through several stages, that men had to learn to live as families. tribes and colln- tries, and it took them many gen- ersticns to do this peacefully. "Now man," he said, "has to leorn to cooperate on a world wide scale and the major question today 1r. how long will hetaka to ieam it." He outlined the history of poi- ltlcs es being h story of the es- tablishment of law and order in the local and national areas. "The hextx step." he said." ls law and order on a world scale." He dis- cussed the principles associated with an understanding of the Un- ited Natlons, stating that one of’ the most important of these is our realization that in international politics we are hot seeking to learn never to disagree. Man had not learned that even in the family circle or in local politics but ra- ther to disagree cooperatively. Toleratlon Essential "We have learned to tolerate different political parties in local politics and the interplay between the Government and opposition in cur legislature and we understand that we can disagree with others and yet not hate them but we have not yet learned to do this in World politics." ' "Another principle", he contin- ued. "whlch has to be appreciated if the U.N. is to work is the shar- ing of sovereignty." He pointed out that men had to learn in farn- ily and in local. politlca'that each individual and group can not do what he or it likes all the time but must hand over some of its individual sovereignty to society as a whole, such as for the making and enforcing of laws which are needed for well being of all. Bams, Destroyed By Fire ai Plsquld Fin of undetermined origin com- pletely destroyed the barn. horse stable and garage of Mr. Vernon Handraghan. Pisquid. about five o'clock Sunday evening. The blaze first spotted by Mr. Hendriaghanh small son. broke out in the barn. A11 the winter's feed that was stored in the building and one wood sleigh were lost. Among the machinery saved was the binder. Dlow. Walon and a driving sleigh. The house was situat near where the barn stood but fo unalte- ly the wind was blowing away from the dwelling and saved it from the flames. The cattle were in the field at the time of the outbreak. It is believed the loss is partially covered with insurance. wilted with nations which can not remain complete sovereignties and at the same time cooperate on a world scale. Another principle he outlined was the realization of inequality, namslysthe principle that na- tions. large or small, rich or poor have their rights and obligations, just as do individuals no matter how situated. ADMIN!‘ -‘ ‘,e he claimed was the process o! evolution. "Na- ture," he claimed, "has provided that evolution must proceed even- ly and constantly." One of the problems of modern history arises from the fact that our technical knowledge has developed to a fa" greater extent than our political. social and moral education. The latter must catch up if they are to put our technical knowledge to proper use." Necessity of ILN. He stated that some organization is necessary to put these principles into practical application. "That organization is the United Na- tions." He mentioned the organ- ization and described the general assembly which is the beginning of a world parliament. He discussed the Security Coun- oil of the UN. which is a kind o’ cabinet and which is composed of five permanent members and six non-permanent members who are elected every two years. I-Ie pointed .out that interna- tional relations require emphasis not merely on meeting of nations at Government level but on tru- cooperation of other organizations such- as churches, service clues and professional societies. "It is not enough." he said, “for govern- ments io get together, the people must do it too." He stated that this was one of the main principles behind UN.- EBCO. or the United Nations Economic Society and Cultural Organization. This body, he said. attempts to associate educational, cultural, and scientific association in all countries with those in all other states. “This is a time." he concluded. "when no college. church or so- ciety can afford to isolate itself from its counterparts elsewhere because each body. large and small can contribute its share to inter- national understanding." Saint John Woman Beaten and Robbed SAINT JOHN, N. 3., Oct. 24- (CP)—Mrs. May Elliott, 52, a widow, told police tonight. that three unidentified men had beaten and robbed her after she accepted an offer of a ride in their car.

Mr. Martin: "If the results only from this report are produced, 1 have no objection. If it is a com- pany record, it is not an expert appraisal.” The chairman allowed the Cheney report to be submitted with this restriction. Earnings Base Mr. Campbell suggested the earnings base could be establish- ed from the investment of the pre- sent owners when they took over the company in 1036. "is it be- yond finding what they invested?" he asked. "The rate base is to be determined on the prudent original cost. But to whom? To the present owners’! How much did it cost them to take the busi- nela over‘! I would like to be instructed. I don't know." Mr. MacPhee answered that this was tbs same company prior to 1980 when the shares were tak- en over by the present owners. Mr. Campbell: "l suggest that prior to 1930, thin-gs were not very happy with this company. We should view with suspicion — the gravest suspicion — any books or documents or anry record of the Cosnpany before 193B, when the present owners took over. Prior to this the Company was controlled by Associated Gas and Electric of New York-m company described by a New York court, among oth- er things, as a ‘marauding octo- Du“. FlrIt Wltnem The first witness called yesterday was Mr. John B. Kaye, president o1 I-mgineesirlg Services, Halifax who made an appraisal of the company at the request of the Commission.

Mr. Stairs stated that the Maritime corporat- ion was owned by the _Wiae Corpor- ation in Montreal. its stock held by employees of the Royal Securities Mr. Campbell: “Ia it cheaper to pay interest than ‘ividends? In Nova. Scotie you have issued practically all of the common stock. Would it not be better to have the stock in more hands?" Mr. Stairs: “It had t0 be in strong hands. We have high oper- ating costs and too low rates. We paid no dividend because we need- ed all the money in the company " Mr. Stairs stated that RE. Is- land consumption on power has been doubling every seven years, and that the war had accelerated this to some extent. Mr. Campbell: “Did our blackouts occur because the Maritime Electric was wondering if it was going to be expropriated and for that rea- son had not the necessary equip- ment on hand? Was it because it did fiot h-ave a (inn-solution reserve set-up?" Mr. Stairs: ‘That had nothing to do with it.” . Mr. Campbell pointed out that other utility companies, of which Mr. Stairlfwas a. director, borrow- ed at considerably lower interest rates than this company. "The public pays this interest not you people. Why la it that we have to pay so high here?" he asked. Mr. Stairs replied that those were refinanced since the war. "This company was not. We hope to do so." . Mr. Campbell. “Then we may ex- pect some relief which will be re- flected in the rates."
