Macdonald of Nova Scotis today told the Decathlon-provincial Conference. He predicted that acceptance by the Provinces of the Domini cf- fera would mean that “prosllnclai autonomy would be gone. provin- cial ind ndence would v~nish. provincis dignity would disappear. provincial governments would be. come the annuitants of Ottawa and provincial public life would bo- come debased and degraded,” “I cannot think." he said.
