"We must always be on the alert to see that our political lib- erty safeguards to the utmost all the other liberties of the individ- ual." hc stressed. “In our modern world, in the economic sphere, this is a matter of increasing import- ance, "Economic liberty of individuals in modern society always tends to enable a comparative few who are specially fortunate ,or lucky to attain a degree of economic power that can dominate the any. Socialism. on the other hand, must have an all powerful control-the state-to work at all." As examples of what Liberalism hnd done in Canada to assure economic stability and security, Dr. Gregg cited the system of re- habilitation for war veterans and family allowances. ‘ Former Army Barrack Destroyed lit Sydney a SYDNEY, NS, Sept. 23 --(CP)__.

He would like to point out, however. that much could be said for the hotels. They were not in the same position as a railway with an empty car or an air ser- ‘vice with an empty plane.

Mr, iGarth Cate told the delegates that {factors contributing to a greater ‘tourist industry for Canada were an increase iii immigration on a “wise and selective basis"; a bal- ance lli her two-way world trade; a year-round vacation season: high quality handicrafts; and a wider travelling radius of profes- sors. professional and business men within and uutsid-e the coun- try. Mr. Cate said the large mass of the American public was "econ- omically illiterate" in that they ldid not realize the importance to the United States of that country increasing its import trade. He believed the same ignorance was displayed to a certain extent in Canada. and that it would have to be remedied in both countries if they were to take full advantage of their potentialities. Canada, Mr. Cate said, was the highway between Europe and the Orient. He believed the Canadian Pacific coast had great possibili- ties as a tourist area for. if peace were maintained. it would be tl-r theatre of greatest development for the next fifty years or more. He referred to the Canadian Arc- tic as the "spearhead of a hemi- sphere" as it‘ had great natural resources capable of development. Mr. Cate expressed the hope that Newfoundland would become Canada's 10th Province and said it would continue to expand as a great tourist attraction. ‘llccord Year President Edwin G. Bowebot- tom. who presided at both sessions yesterday, said it had been a record-breaking tourist year for Canada but there still was much to be done to attract visitors and promote travel within Canada. The Dominion Government had done "a grand job" but "some of the Provinces could do more." Tile conference also heard re- ports from Messrs. Douglas Oliver of Toronto. secretary-treasurer of the Associatioh. T. L. Johnston of Toronto, on the Tourist Service Education Week, and R. A. Brown of the Dominion Bureau of Stat- lstics, During August, Mr. Brown re-- ported. 410.000 cars had crossed the border into Canada for an all- time record and by season's end tho figure probably would reach 1.50.000 automobiles. A 2.000.000 car year could be expected in a few seasons. Delegates to the Convention were guests at a luncheon and dinner yesterday at the Charlotte- town Hotel.

The export-import gap will closed by: l. Saving $200,000,000 in im- ports. . 2. Increasing exports by £370.000.000 by next mid-sum- mer and by 2570000000 by the end of next year. The targets are a 40-per cent increase in exports over the 1938 figure by mid-INS and a. 60-per- cent increase by the end of 1948. But this increase will merely beat the crisis and the final tar- get, designed to put Britain pro- -perly back on the high road to prosperity. is '15 per cent more than pl-e-war figures. This is not expected to be achieved until some time irl 194-9. I All Britain's plans are being laid without reference to any aids that might be received from the Mar- shall plan. Such aid would ease the period of stringency, but tliei government is assuming for the‘ moment that Britain must stand on her own legs. i Britain has already made cuts in overseas expenditure arid on services amounting to £20,000,00D sterling. A further review of expenditure on defence services is under way and negotiations are also taking place with the United States re- gal-ding Britain's dollar expendi- ture on Germany. It is hoped that for 1948 sav- ings on government overseas ex- penditure will total £l00.000,0il0 which, with a saving of £207,000.- 000 in imports, will produce a tot- al sav\‘2 of more than £300,000.- 000. This is about the total deficit The balance will be made up part- ly by increasing home production of foodstuffs but mainly by in- creasing exports and particularly exports to dollar countries. Any relief for the British public, will depend not only upon tile achievement of the targets but upon other unpredictable circum- stances such as the movement of uofld prices. Any further increase would deal a blow at the govern- ment's plan, while any down-grad- lng would greatly assist Britain's recovery. Indications are that the govern- ment in its present negotiations with priority export industries will , get employee's agreement to work longer hours. The resultant larger pay brackets will put much more money into circulation. ' Aid from the Marshall plan would mean the revision of some‘ of the targets, including s. larger coal production target to provide coal for export under the plan. b0 PENZANCE, England - (c?) — Salvage work c-n 1-l.M.S.

' 1i‘ (Continued from P686 1) ' , The Georgetown High School Field Day and sports were held on the School grounds and adjoining park on Monday afternoon. Tlhe events wen: all keenly contested and many of the participants show- ed excellent promise as future t-rack and field stars. Prizes were donated by the the School's Stu- dent Council, FJ. DeLory and Sons, and the teachers. The high scoring athlete of jhe meet was Albert Landry, who took first place in all events he entered. Plve of the top performers were-selected to represent t-he school at the athletic as Dugald. The effect of this order should have caused the special to 1W0- ceed to Dugald and pull into the siding there, he said. when he was advised by the conductor of the transcontinental that the trains had collided-the advice came about two minutes after the crash-he summoned medical assistance. At the time he did not know of any casual- ties. F. O. Smith, conductor for 2'! years and aboard east-bound No, 4 the night of the crash. said his train-a first-class train-enjoyed superiority over the special insofar as right-of-way was concerned and no order had been issued altering that status on the west side of Dugald. He could not, however, proceed past Dugald until the special had passed him. I-le interpreted his orders also as giving him the right to the main line at Dugald with the special heading into the east end of the siding and giving him clearance to proceed. The locomotive of the trans- continental was stopped elst of the station at Dugald. He saw the special coming a- nesdsy of this week. they are: Al- Stephen DeLory.
