Former Islander celebrates 91st Birthday (Moncton Transcript) on May 2, 1845, Paul Lea was born at Tryon, P. E. 1.. the son of Mr. and’ Mrs. John Lea. Today, May 2. 1936, Mr. lea. is celebrat- ing his ninety-first birthday at his home, Mountain Road. Mr. Lee's span of life has cov- ered many of the greatest events of modern history and he can re- call vividly many happenings of importance in the years through which he has passed. For more than fifty years the venerable gentleman has been a resident of Moncton and one of the most highly respected among them. In splendid health and possess- ing all his faculties, Mr. Lea is un- usually interesting in conversa- tion. His great age he attributes to the fact that he has always been blessed with good health. Mr. Lee went, as a young man, to Charlottetown where he learn- ed his trade as a carpenter. He remained there until he was 22 years of age. During that time he was present at the first meeting ever held in Canada to arrange for Confederation. He said that he had worked on the government build- ings in preparation for the histor- ical meeting and at the session heard such men as D'Arcy McGee and Sir John Macdonuld outline their ideals. To California When he left Charlottetown, Mr. Lea headed for California. which then was in the throes of its be- ginnings. Men had flocked there in search of gold and Mr. Lee con- sidered it would be a good place to ply his trade. He crossed the strait of Northumberland and took the train at Bhedlac, terminal of the first line in this country, and went on to saint John. Thence he sailed to Portland, lVie., where he took a boat. that canted him to New York. From there to Panama City he went, because at that time the only overland route was by covered wagon, and across the isthmus. on the "City of sacra- mento." he sailed up the coast to Sacramento and thus began a four year sojourn in California. That was in 1887. the year of Canada’: confederation. It took just six weeks to complete the Journey. After he had retired, the aged gentleman went back to Call- fornln. in 1913, and the tourney occupied six days. Remaining four years in Cali- fornia. Mr. Lee. returned to Char- lottetown. where he started a woodworking factory. .1-lo remain- ed in business there twelve years and then came to Monoton. Here he began similar operations and gradually built up a ‘ ' that became one of the lu-gutln this area. He conducted the business until 1922, when he sold out to B. W.

"Not only is this a distinct ad- vantage on the prospects of the present season's crop," said Mr. MCNGCIY. but will serve as a. per- manent protection against Canad- ian markets being flooded with American potatoes in those sea- sons when their markets rule lower than Canadian prices. “With a. duty against American new potatoes entering Canada, it will allow almost a full month ex- tra to market the balance of the old Canadian crop, without any serious competition from the new potatoes. The situation, therefore, is extremely strong, in view of the very short stocks existing in Can- (mntlnued from Page 1) oeived direct from Addis Abaha, via. London). Wild scenes of looting, pillage and brawling took place today fol- lowing the flight of Emperor Haile Selassie and his ministers. Many corpses were seen in the streets. several Europeans isolated in the streets when the trouble broke out yesterday had narrow mcapes. They were rescued by repeated dashes by British subjects from the legation and were brought in to safety in cars and lorries. Th:-illing tales were told by re- fugees, many of whom lost their houses and shops through pillage and fire. Palace Looted When the Emperor left for Djib- outi he ordered the Imperial palace thrown open to the people and that they be allowed to help i.ii8mS8lV¢.=>. Streams of men, women and child- ren wcre seen running from all di- rectlons to the palace. They re- turned laden with clothing, beds. carpets and furniture. The ammunition dump was thrown open. Thousands of men carried off cases full of ammuni- tion, which was tried out. Shots fired into the air made it sound as if a terrific battle were in pro- gross. Later, when much liquor was consumed, fierce wrangling c\‘:1' the loot started. swords were drawn and shots fired. Most British subjects had taken refuge in the British Legation where a well-organized camp was set up in the legation park. Trib- utes were paid the Britons, who dashed out time and again to res- cue isolated foreigners of all na- tlonnlities. Official quarters said after a day of indecision the Emperor, who was strongly pressed by the Emp- ress. decided at midnight Friday that the only course left open to him was to leave the country. FIRST SETTLERS R/OME. May 3——At least 400,000 of the 500,000 Italian soldiers and workmen in Africa will remain there as settiers, Premier Mumoiini indicated today in a speech to ru- ral peasants. After praising the land, he do- clared: "At least 400,000 of the 500,000 men in the centre of Africa. are peasants who. while marching and fighting, do not forget the land. They boast about it, take some area, contrast it with Italy, and they foresee the possibility of carrying to those dcpopulated lands our vnlorous and fecund families of the Italian race."

Prior to the United States treaty import/ed cars were assessed five per cent on the first $1,200 and 10 per cent on the value in excess of $1,200. These taxes, so far as Am- crican cars were concerned. lapsed with the treaty but a. three-rpcr- cent import excise tax was applied. Now a. three-per cent tax will be levied on American cars in addit- ion to the five-per cent tax on value in excess of $850. Exemption of cars under 3650 lets most of the low priced standard models off free. Tariff rates on parts are adjust- ed with aylew to encouraging man- ufacture in Canada and the auto- mobile producer who can show 8 high Canadian content, in his car will have s widened opportunity of imiporting necirsary parts at little or no duty. The free list for motor car parts. regardless of Canadian content, is enlarged by the addition of a few less important parts but many parts previously on the free list are now made dutiable subject to free en- try when content requirements are met. An important change makes it possible for a manufacturer to import chassis frames duty-free by keeping up his content. On the same parts item the reg- ular duties are set at free under the British preferential. 20 percent under the intermediate (United States) and 30 per cent under the general tariff. This is where the Canadian contest requirements come in. when these parts are imported by a manufacturer whine total pro- duction in the same year is less than 10,000 cars he may get them in free under the intermediate and at 25 per cent under the general rates if not less than 50 per cent of his factory cost of production is incurred in the British Empire. If the nianufacturer importing produces more than 10,000 cars. in the year he may get the lower rates if his factory cost incurred in the British Empire is not less than 60 per cent of the Mal coét. This latter requirement is to Jump to 65 per cent after March 31. 1038. Thus Canadian rnotormsn- ufacturcrs are encouraged to step up their purchases of Empire ma- terials and labor and given nearly two years to do it.

Con- servative leader Bennett in panic. ular was busy preparing the cam- ment Which. as opposition financial critic, he will deliver Tuesday af- trrnoon. The budget, and the reactions to tax and tariff changes it contained, has dominated all political consid- erations and will continue to do so as the debate progresses. Gencmi. ly it is felt that the debate will not be a long one, and that Parliament will conclude its labors before the end of June. ' Tomorrow the House will take up estimates. Railways legislation was the chief subiect or debate last week, apart from the estimates, and this measure will probably en- gage the House again during this week.

Loan Council Legislation An interesting feature of the budget was the announcement that the loan council legislation will he proceeded with at this session. This means that the resolution on the order paper in the name of the i_-Justice Minister will be moved in due course. involving a petitloatn the Crown for amendments to the- British North America Act. These amendments will be for the two-fold purpose of empower- ing the government to set up loan‘ councils and lend money to the provinces under certain terms, and- ot making constitutional certain amusement and entertainment tax- es which have for some years been imposed by the provinces. Negotiations with the provinces- for new relief as. ements is one of the chief issues in government cir- cles these days. Premier Hepburn of Ontario, and a. number of his ministers, conferred with the gov- ernment last weer and it is under- stood they reach Q the basis of an agreement which will be drawn up this week. other provinces will follow with the lilcelihood that’ Manitoba will be next.

By Guardian’: speohi Win) 'IoiRouN'ro, May 3 —— “Regret” and “rnlsgivlng" at the Dominion governments action in reducing the tariff on farm implements from the United States from 12 1-3 to '1 1-2 per cent. were voiced today by T. A. Russell, president of the Massey-Harris 00.. Ltd. Eiollowing is the statement. in part, of Mr. Russell: our company views with regret and misgiving the action of the government in reducing the tariff uled meeting of the radio commit- tee had to be called off when it was found impossible to get enough on {gun implements for the sec- ond time in four months. The gov- members together to open proceed- ings. It will meet tomorrow mom- ing if 9. quorum is available, to can- itical broadcasts. The committee on wheat market- last week with James R. Murray of Winnipeg chairman of the Canad- ian wheat board. and former Prime Minister Bennett clashing frequent- ly. Pensions. election and fran- chise acts, and the railways com- mittees were also in session. Prime Minister Mackenzie King, whose almost constant attendance at all sessions of the House has re- sulted in accumulation of a. great mass of routine work, coupled with the task of selecting personnel for the national commission on employ- ment, will probably absent himself from the Chamber during most of the debate. It has been rumored that Mr. Mackenzie King would take a brief holiday for a much needed rest. The Prime Minister did not leave Ottawa durllng the Easter holiday and has been constantly on the job since Parliament assembled. It has been learned. however, that Mr. emment's action is particularly surprising to us in that the present «parliament has authorized an ex- tensive inquiry into prica of agri- cultural implements and the ef- fect of tariff thereon. one would have thought that it would have been only fair to Ilwllt the information which this inquiry, will disclose before taking action. For the past year and at the pres- cnt time, the prices of irnplemenb in Canada. are on the average not higher than in the United States. DAVID LLOYD GEORGE MALONE We chronicle with deep feelings of regret the death of David , George. infant son of Mr. and rs.- J. Arthur Malone, age three years. Lloyd, as he was familiarly lmown was a little fellow of a lovable dis- position and was a general favorite in the community.

Mr. and Mrs. Malone feel keenly the loss of their only boy and have the Mackenzie King is in the best health and his intention is to take only as much time off as possible from sessions of the House in order to catch up with his administra- sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement. The funeral. which was held on Thursday, April 23rd, was largely attended and was a manifestation tive work. Justice Minister Lapointe turned Friday from his Easter Hoi- iday trip to Paris. rested and re- freshed, and he will probably lead the House much of ihe time in the next week or two while the budget is under debate. Mr. Dunning, wearied from the strenuous work of budget making and its presents.- paid have been cancelled.
