Mr. Mathesonts amendment to limit issuance of doctor's prescrip- titzins tn 50 per month was discus- s e . Mr. Savillc said he could not support this measure. He referred to his own section of the country where there was only one doctor to 7,000 people, So long as liquor is sold as medicine the doctors must have the right. to exercise their judgment in issuing scripts. There were features of this amendment which he did not like. He hoped the time would come when the liquor traffic would be abolished but that would depend on public opinion and support. I-Ie believed the habit of smoking cigarettes among young people was more harmful in this Province lililll drinking. Vonereal discuss was more to be dreaded. The 'i‘cmpcr- ance Federation has been given a good deal by this Legislature, but they must, have public opinion be- hind them.

Mr. Hughes said the Legislature had no right to lCglsiilié ior the Temperance Pepsi-alum ol‘ any other particular organization. They were here to legislate for the peo- ple. There is a provision ill the Dominion statute which bars a member from doing .:lylillllg in Parliament at the instigation of any particular group. Premier Campbell: "That would apply here by implication." “An Anomaly" This amendment, continued the Pfilmlel‘, produces an anomaly. He did not intend to argue for or against lt. The Government has taken the view that it should not be proposed as a government mens- urc, but if any private member wiiued to lll-IOCIUCB an amendment of this kind, there should be all opportunity of debate. do regretted, however. that the amendment was represented in some quarters outside the House as an issue involving One of the fun- damental principles of democracy. “I do not think the principles of democracy are at stake ill this amendment at all," he said. “The whole uestion is whether it Ls a reasons. le or proper one for the enforcement of the Prohibition Act. The fact that a majority voted for an amendment of this kind in the plebiscite does not necessarily make it incumbent on any govern- ment 0r Legislature to follow the amendment. "It is, of course, l. fundamental principle of democracy that major- ities rule, but it is not a funda- mental principle of government that a bare majority of fifty-one shall determine the conduct of government in all classes of ‘ gislation. De- mocracy is full of instances where a larger majority than fifty- one is repuired for many particu- lar types of decision. we have in this Legislature many rules where- by two-thirds and somelmes 100 per cent majorities are required or the enactment and carrying out of certain types of administration. "All democratic bodies have sim- ilar provislons. And one of the bas- ic princlples of democracy is that not only shall the properly expres- sed will he majority prevail, but that the rights of minorities shall be duly respected, The ques- tion for us to ecide is whether the majority expressed on that pleblslcite is. or is not, sufficient m make it incumbent on the gov- ernment and the Legislature to carry the expressed wish of that majority into effect, particularly in the case of an extremely dras- tic requirement such as at present proposed." Cites Plebislcltg Results ‘ Premier Campbelhrecalled that the number of votes polled in the plebiscite in favor of limiting scripts to 50 per doctor was 10,847. Aga nsl; that was a negative vote of 8.923. a majority of about ll-b. He could see not ing in such a result to indicate that the imple- mentation of the majority vote was a. requirement of democracy. The total vote in accordance with the 1989 general election would be in the vicinity of 50.000. "So that ap arently the vote in favour of ths limitation was lip- proximately one-fifth of the total number of voters qualified to vote. These were the considerations which moved the Government in re- fraining from adoptlnq as n pro- posal of governmental DOIicy ill" cilactnicnt of this extrcmoiv stringent and drastic nlnemimcnl. “There ls another sldc to tllc question. which has been out by the leader of the posi- tion: that the basis of the Prohibi- tion Act is the discretion which ls vested in the individual tnvnibrvz- of the medical profession. F‘i'om the logical point of view. if you break that down you are likely to break down the whole basis which underlies the constitution of the Prohibition Act."

Jones the Ilouse went into committee with Mr, Hughm in the chair on the following resolution: "Whereas the Bacon Board has ordered that all slaughtexers of hogs in Canada that are under Government inspection, are to be immediately placed on a quota bas- is which will be 53 per cent of the hogs slaughtered in 1940 for the domestic market: "And whereas the effect of tho order will limit the only local plant to a volume of approximately 200 hogs per week at the present time, as killings now run close to 1.000 hogs per week, which means that only 200 out of 1,000 hogs can g0 on the domestic market and the balance-BOO hogs-go for export, and no plant could exist on a 200- hogs-a-week output; "And whereas the packing plants located in the Maritime Provinces process less than 20 per cent of the total consumption of pork for the Maritime Provinces and New- foundland which now constitutes practically their sole markets, and our local plant is not equipped to process export cuts; "And whereas the precarious conditions existing in our main- land communications at the pres- ent time necessitate the mainten- ance of the local plant at a. point sufficiently high 00 process all hogs produced on Prince Edward Island; "And whereas unnecessary trans- portation costs will be incurred in bringing Pork products into the Maritime Provinces and Newfound- land from other points in Canada; “Therefore resolved that Prince Edward Island be made an excep- tion in the order with respect m the number of hogs that may be slnllehtsred by any licensee in the Province" The resolution was discussed at leiiglll by Mr. Mclsaac, Mr. Jones, Ml: Blker. Mr, McPhec, Hon. Mr. “lllglll, Pronucr Campbell, l-Ilon. U1‘. Maclvllllan" Mr. Wright made a motion w the effect that the resolution be referred to the Department of Agriculture. This precipitated n lively controversy between Messrs. Hon, J.A. Campbell and Mr. Speak- er Stcwart. the latter maintaining that the proper channel for the resolution to pass was through the agricultural committee of e House and not through the De- partment. Dr. MacMillan pointed out that there was no member of the 0p- posltion on the agricultural com- mittee. "e suggested that the leg- islature ask‘ for exemption for three months during which the Bacon Board should see that the proper processing machinery is in- stalled in the Maritime Dlants. Premier Campbell endorsed the opnssitlon leader's suggestion. Hon. Mr. lvfcKlnnon objected that this would be getting down to state control of» industry, On a suggestion by Mr. McPhee, and on motion of the promoter. the final clause 0f the resolution was amended to read "that Prince. Edward Island be made an excep- tion in the order for a period deem- ed expedient to permit necessary installation of processing machin- ery, with respect to the number of h0g5 that may be slaughtered by any licensee in this province." The resolution was then adopted. Victory lain On motiOn of Premier Campbell, seconded b-y Hon. Dr. MacMlllan. the following resolution was adopted unanimously: “Whereas the Government of Canada has announced the Fourth victory Loan Campaign, to com- mence on the 26th of A rll instant, with s national objec ve of one billion one hundred million dol- 13.75: "And whereas. upon the same proportionate increase over the last Victory loan. the objective of this Province will be in the vicinity i): two and one-half million dol- ars; "And whereas the succeu of the forthcoming loan is lmperatively necessary, both to provide the Government with funds required for the prosecution of the war ef- fort, and to maintain the confid- ence and morale of our active ser- vice forces; "Therefore resolved that this House of Assembly unanimously and urgently commend to the peo- Dle of Prince Edward Island the patriotic duty of subscribing to the Cillfllllg victory Loan Camp- aign every dollar that can possibly be saved and made available for the purpose. thus sustaining the record of this Province for out- standing contributions to the na- tional war effort."
