(From Our ‘Own Correspondent) OTTAWA, March 9. —— A bit oi‘ n storm was raised in the house last evening over a statement made by Mr. Duff, Antlgonish, as to haiv. ing the patronage for Queen's- Lunenburg. l-t arose in connection with a vote of thirty eight thous- and dollars for public building in Queenh-Lunenburg. ‘Mr. Ernst wanted to know why Mahone bay in his constituency in the supplementary estimates of last year was omitted from the main estimates this year, whereas the vote ior the Kensington public building was included. . ‘Dulff stated that the people oi Mahono bay. had asked him to see _that the vote was not put in the supplementary esti- mates. Challenged to name the per- sons wno had so instructed him, he was-silent, and Mr. Ernst lnionn- ed the house that he was member for Queenls-lhunenlburg and expect- ed to be until the next general elec_ tious. i ‘Duff shot back “You have not got the patronage, l have got the pat- ronage". Immediately there was consternation. There were cries of "aha-me" from various parts oi the chamber and great slamming of 'When the noise subsided Mr. Gardiner arose and demanded to know from the government benches if Duff's statement was true. The question was side-stepped by gay- eral ministers, until insistence by Gardiner. the Prime Minister said: “The government controls the pat- Wiiiise and with respect to public works the government speaks with the "Minister." The latter's statement was to the effect that a scrutiny of the estimates would show that regard was had as to requirements, irres- pectiive of political pull. There was u Brent deal of opposition from all except in the government ranks, to a vote of twelve thousand dol- lars for a post office in Kenning- ton. Mr. Guthrie, who mowed to re- duce the amount to ‘one dol- lili‘. referred to Kenning ton as a "little hamlet of between live and six hundred people", and. - slated that the post office only pro-i - ducod a revenue of about thrse| ' thousand annually.

Propped up in bed at it 45 degree angle Frick was able to converse briefly with those about him and physicians redoubled efforts to pre- vent a fatal lnstant"s break in the rhythmic procession of men who have been inducing artificial res- piration for the stricken young salesman since iaht Sunday morn- lug. Two by two they approached the bed. swayed back and forth for fif- teen minutes one on each side working feverishly in exact rhythm, pressing their hands down on the victim's lower chest then relaxing them in an endless respirstional effort. Twenty four men have worked in au unbroken continuation oi eight hour shifts while others of Frlck's friends stood ready to act as substitutes. Without a break the process has gone on since Sun- day morning when creeping paraly- sis took eifect in nerves controlling the movements of the youth's tile.- pilrmn. Physicians said they were wit- nessing one of the most remark. able achievements in medical ills-i tory. The fact that Frick could; talk when his tongue was complete“ ly paralyzed Sunday encouraged those at his side but doctors said they were fighting against time in their effort to have the youth breathing again‘ before his body] would succumb to the shock of the artificial respiration wearing away strength even as it saved his life.
