(Applause). g ' om AGE PENSIONS Deallrg with Old Age Pensions. the Premier explained that the federal statute; passed under the Mackenzie King regime, regulates how the pensions are to be paid. and that the scale of reductions in pensions payments are fixed by this statute. , "I am glad." he continued," to have the assurance of the Liberal candidates tonight that if elected to power they are not going to abolish old age pensions, which the Conservatives introduced Ln this Province. I did not accuse them of that because I do not be- lieve they would have the courage to do it. They couldn't do it! (Ap- plause). Mk. Cox had referred to alleged deception in the matter of old age pensions, and to the crime of de- ceiving “those poor old people, tottering to the grave." “I might ask Mr. Cox," said the Premier, “how many poor old people totter- cd to the grave between 1927 and 1981, after he and his government promised Old Age Pensions and were in power for four years, and never gave them.” (Loud applause). THAT AUDIT BOARD BRIEF The Premier then read again from the statement presented by the Lea Government to the Audit Board in 1930. in which it was complained that the government “had been utterly unable EVEN T0 CONSIDER the introduction of Old Age Pensions.” "There you are,” he added: "they never even CONSIDERED it, though it was right in their‘ 1927 election platfonn. I think they should be the last persons to men- tion old age pensions in this Prov- lnce. They had it in their platform and didn't implement it. We had It in our 1931 platfonn. and we fulfilled our promise. That's the difference!" (Applause). EDUCATION Answering the criticism made in the press and on several platforms against the Government's educa- tional and health expenditures. the Premier said: "I cannot under- italld filly man getting up on a public platform and attacking edu- cation and public health. I cannot understand the mentality of a ex- penditures in the interests of children, for that is what it amounts to. “Mr. McIntyre says the Carnegie Xiemonstration library is a. ‘white elephant’ because we shall have to maintain it after the three year period of the grants expire. He claims it is going to cost $30,000 to $35,000 a year. That was the initial cost to establish it. At the end of the third year period we will have received over $100,000 from the Carnegie people for this purpose. Do you-suppose it will cost that much to maintain, whatever Gov- ernment ls in power?” If the next Government wants to maintain the Carnegie lib- rary at a. reasonable figure, they can do so. the Premier said, adding that throughout the Province there was great appreciation of the ben- efit which the library was provid- lng. and that it was for the people to decide this question for them- selves. DOMICILED COMPANIES "The reason I have not discuss- ed the Domiciled Companies Act, to which reference is constantly made by the Liberal candidates." said the Premier, "is because I have been requested by those who were instrumental in dealing with the Saunders-Lea. Government in putting this on the statutes. not to discuss this matter politically. The leader of the Opposition was re- quested not. to discuss it either. We are very glad to get the money. but it is back-door legislation: mil unnecessa y discussion of this legislation will probably be our undoing in this matter. That i! U" reason I am keeping sway from it. (Applause). "Our opponents talk about sales tax increases as offsetting the sub- sidy increase which we received from the Bennett Government. They do not tell you. however. that there is less paid under the Ben- nett Government than under the Mackenzie King the wsy of subsidy increase? Noth- lng st sill" (Applause). Another regard to anincreese of pales registered here."

How much m they set lmk in Opposition argument analyzed by the Premier was with income tax from 042.000 to 0311.009 ill $119 last. few years, the impression left by the Liberal candidates being that this was paid by the people of Prince Edward Island. "Our 0601710 must be getting rich very qulcklyl There was. of course. no such in- crease, and we all know it. It is due to this Domlciled Companies Act, and it is the taxes which are- belng paid by non-resident com- O lfl II N“ der to see if we could not develop a type of herdsurfsced road for general use within the means of the Province. That ls our policy. and that is what we have been do- ing." (Applause). Corrects Lea Mlsststemeut Liberal misstatement regarding the finances of the Province were next dealt with by the Govem- ment leader. Mr. Lea. in his radio address, had cited Liberal liabil- lties as being slightly over $900,000. The External Auditors‘ reports showed that on Aug. 12. 1927, the total liabilities were $2,159,504, and on Aug. 29, 1931, and the end of Liberal regime, they were 935337.407. "All you have to do is subtract them, and you get a. total liability rolled up in four Liberal years of $1,177,000. (Applause). ' Mr. McIntyre: “That is four years." Premier MacMlllan: "Of course." Mr. McIntyre: “You are only talking about your three years." Premier MacMillan: "I am only answering your leader's statement that the report of the External Auditor showed a little over $900,- statement ls. not correct." applause). (Mr. McIntyre did not reply). The Premier next dealt with a statement which Mr. McIntyre had ventured to make, denying Liberal responsibility for increased liabilities, in 1931, of 0540.000. The Premier produced the Public Ac- counts and the Auditors Slate- ments, showing conclusively that the Conservative debt increase in their four months of that year amounted only to 55,000. Mr. McIntyre attempted to deny this statement. but the Premier again cited the Auditors‘ figures: the audience loudly applauded, and Mr. McIntyre remained silenced. (Loud SUBSIDY CLAIMS Premier MacMillan then dealt briefly with the subsidy increase of $40,000 annually obtained by the first Stewart Government in lieu of railway taxes, which Mr. Mc- Intyre had attempted to credit to the Liberals. He also scored the amazing bungling of the Saunders- Lea Government with respect to subsidy claims. Loud and frequent applause tes- tified that the audience followed this discussion with particular in- terest and appreciation, and that the Liberal record ll'l this regard was a matter of great public in- terest. . Coming to the Liberal ex-Mln lster's criticism that the Govern- ment was "extravagant," the Premier was equally effective. "They say we spent more money than they did in our time. Why shouldn't we? Wasn't there more need of it?" (Loud applause), Continuing, he cited amounts, totalling nearly a million dollars, received during the past four years from Ottawa for unem- ployment relief, old age pensions, cc. a . “Did they expect us to save that money so as to ‘balance the bud- Rolf?" the Premier challenged. "That is what their argument amounts to. They go so far as to say that "there never was a time’ in the history ‘of the Province when a Government could have saved more money. Do you believe that?" Voices: "N0!“ Premier MacMillan: “That is their statement: when people are hungry and unemployed. They say ‘Look at all the people you are employing. Look at the gangs of men at work. There are a. great many people whom we have not yet been able to provide for in that way, because it is a. physical impossibility. But what do the Liberals propose to do if they come in? They say they are going to make revenue and expenditure meet, and in the Legislature last year they indicated how they are going to do it. by cutting down in the Public Works Department. What their proposal means is that for every $3.00 we are expending, they will expend about $1.00" Prolonged applause greeted this shrewd analysis of Liberal policy on this vitally important question. Holding both political platforms in his hand, the Premier then asked what contained the most hope for the people of this Prov- ince. He cited the outstanding planks in each. "What hope." he asked, in the Liberal promise of a balanced budget? Mr. Thane Campbell the other night slated that a balanced budget did not ne- cessarily mesn no debt increase. So they are going to increase the debt just the same. They will "balance the budget" on ordinary account and still go on increasing the debt. Is that going to do you any good? Voices: "No!" (Loud applause). The Premier then analyzed the "no more motor cars" plank in the Liberal platform, exposing its in- sincerity. He then dealt with Mr. Mlclntyreb criticism , regarding Falconwood plans. "We saved in our management of Falconwood hospital," he said, "enough to buy three sets of plans for a complete mental hospital unit, over our three year period as compared with theirs." In conclusion, he dealt with Mr. Molntyreb present "economy" pledges and contrasted this amus- ingly. and amid tremendous laugh- Mr. Mclntyreb "broadening out" 1929, in which he told the formers pay more taxes so that the Gov- on the roads.

I am showing that that] thei THE-C . of the years to come; that's whet he says; that's his policy; spend more money." Voice: "He gets it from Ottawa!" (Applause). Mr. Cox could only retort weak- ly: "I don't care where, he gets it. Where are we going to be, in ten or fifteen years time if we don't curtail?" ma. nI n. cox Predicting that by this day week the last provincial Conservative government in Canada would be gone, Mr. Cox the first speaker. was answered by a voice from the audience: “And Mr. Cox (Laughter). "Bennett," said Mr. Cox. “never fulfilled a single one or his prom- ises. He's a wonderful man. t Voice: "He certainly is!" (Laugh- er). along with it!" He criticised the late Premier Stewart for “getl g a great big city car." and not being satsfied with the car Mr. Lea had used. "We are. going to make a change in the whole system when we get in next week." he declared. (l-Ie was answered by lronical laughter). Mr. Cox next criticised the gov- ernment because clamoring for jobs and they made jobs for them. Voice: "That's the last thing you ought to talk about!" (Applause). Mr. Cox: “I'm not talking to you at all!" (Laughter). Dr. Keeping he said would be able to take charge of the Public Health Department if the Liberals came in. He criticised the Guardian for making fun of the Liberal plat- form. In every district they were distributing caples of the Guardi- an and Patriot “and its not worth that," he declared. Voice: "That's the first time you ever mentioned your platform in this campaign!“ (Laughter). “They send a young lawyer out here. What is he out for? An eye like a. hawk, the some lad. What's he here for? To beat me, to put me out. Well he can't do it," Mr. Cox boasted. The Premier, he said was very clever in talking; "and I want you people tonight to be aware of him!" He condemned alleged extrava- gance on the government's part, al- so the mall service. He complained of seeing a lot of boys on the roads. Voice: “They were out picking berries." (Laughter). "Strict economy." Mr. Cox said, "is the only sale course. If the Prince of Wales College was done by a man-if it was done by you a; an individual, I bet you wouldn't spend so much on it. Now would you?" ' . "If you think their government ls better than our government in the past, vote for them." he ad- vised the audience. MR. MALCOLM MACKINNON Mr. MacKinnon was warmly‘ ap- plauded when he e the hope that he would have the hon- or of representing the district in the next Icglshture. He could see no justification in Mr. Cox's remarks for the elec- tors voting for him in the present contest. Mr. Cox had expressed wonder that he and Mr. McIntyre has been elected last time. "I wonder too," said Mr MacKin- non "and I am surc you also must have wondered It is not for any- th'ng they did. nor for anything that is in their platform today. And if they do promise you some- tlfug they won't fulfill it." (Ap- plause). ‘ The major imue of the cam- paign he said was the records of both party Governments. With these records he proceeded briefly but effectively to deal. , He referred particularly to sub- sidy claims, old age pensions. MR. J. P. MCINTYRE Complaint that the Premier, at Kinkora. was "very gentlemanly. and didn't give any chance to start a fight" was made by Mr. McIntyre in his opening remarks. Voice: "You start it and he'll finish it. Jim." (Laughter). Mr. McIntyre maintained it was the other way about. He endeav- ier and applause, with the same policy as announced by himself in that they ought to be prepared to eminent could spend more money Mr. Cox, who had five minutes to rebut the Premier's stauments. made p001‘ use of his time.

It was the Liberal Government from 1028 to 1930 that found the Island gravel and started that work, he maintained. The Conservatives had bought over $100,000 worth of road moh- purchases (Contlnued hem Page 1) received. i His speech was an un- usually forceful and clear presenta- tion of facts, and was Pun ‘ ' " with applause and cheers of ap- proval. Mr. MacPhee was given a good bearing, as crmtrastcd with that given his colleague. "He brought it on himself" was the universal comment on the reception given Mr. IePege. Mr. Bismarck Craswell was the chairman of the meeting and dis- charged his duties cspably. Politely Applauded When Mr. Angus MacPhee arose he received a. smattering of polite applause. He would be as light as possible, he promised and compared conditions of 1930 with those of to- day. He said Mr. Bennett had back- lflred. and he made light of the extraordinary conditions under which the Conservatives had labor- ed. I-Ie began to discuss roads. ‘ voice: “Better roads in Rustico." "Mr. Bethune has extravagant ideas. He is an awful sport," said Mr. MacPhee. I-Ie quoted the figures of balanced trade. showing Canada had a favorable balance of a billion dollars. Tremendous Ovation Mr. D. F‘. Bethune cn arising received a tremendous ovation. He <et forth the accomplishments of the Government especially in Rustlco and vicinity. In accordance with the desires of the fishermen a beach road had been built. The Gallant Road had‘ been repaired as it had been left in very poor shape by the Liberals. He vlgarously de- fended the financial transactions of the Government, and showed that the Liberals had charged non-per- manent works to capital account in order to balance one budget. He strongly condemned the Liberal of inadequate road machinery. Much of the Conserva- tive borrowing was made necessary by Liberal increases of liabilities he showed. In defending the Southport Highway, Mr. Bethune reminded his hearers that $3.000 was expended last year on repairs for the Mac- Intyre Highway. Amid cheers he discussed the Liberal hyprocrlsy regarding the Old Age Pensions, and criticism of the rebuilding of Prince of Wales College. Mr. Bethune referred to the bene- flts to be derived from the perman- ant road to be built from Hunter River t9 Rustioo in place of the railway promised many years ago. All the Liberals could show for $1,177,030 expended were a few bridges and scows. In reply to Mr. LePage's accuse- tion that a. thousand men were employed in Second Queens, Mr. Bethune stated that there were not more than 75. The work had been scattered evenly over the four years. "MacMlllan is an awful spender. they say. He is s. great money getter." declared Mr. Bethune smid cheers. as he discussed the subsidy question. Mr. Bethune asked his opponents for specific examples of how they intended to cut down expenditures. and balance their budget. “Who are they going to dis- charge?" he asked. Mr. J. O. C. Campbell: "Minister of Health" To cries of "Give it to them, Dave." and "You know how," Mr. Bethune criticised the Liberal plank of a jail farm. and proceeded to tear the whole platform to shreds. Did Not Wont to Speak Mr. LePage arose to the accom- paniment of boos and cat-calls, and “Corrie on nosey!" His first error was his statement: "I can be elected without speaking hem. I don't want to speak here." "Fa-runs are worth one half of what they were in 1936" said m. LePege. Voice: “Try and buy mine." "What about New Brunswick?" Mr. LePage asked. Voices: "We're in Prince Edward Island." when the speaker began in dis- cuss Federal lmues he was brought up with cries of "Discuss local politics." Mr. LeP-age Hcwlcd Down Mr. lcPage quoted many figures in discussing the financial situation. Regarding his statement made on the previous night that there were a thousand working on the roads in the district, Mr. IePage said he had counted 70 between Milton and New Glasgow. Immediately the sir was filled inery in their time, he said, A repair bill last year of $4,000 for the McIntyre Highway was “quite natural" Mr. McIntyre thought. He criticked the South- port project for breaking up so quickly, also the Premier for stat- ing thatthe contracting company was paying all the cost of "epairs. McIntyre denied that the Lib- erals had gone behind $547,000 in 1931. He cited Schedule C, Treas- ury Current Account of the Exter- nal Auditor in an effort to show that the Liberal debt increase was only $224,000. The Conservatives he. claimed. were responsible for eight months of the year 1931. The "goose eggs" he got was something taken from our people in taxes" Mr. McIntyre said in sn effort to belittle the subsidy claims achieved by the Government leader. "If we $500,000 s. year we ouldrft be getting back one-fifth of what Bennett is t tram mu," he maintained. The Oar lllerry. widening of the railway gauge. and The Domiciled companies Act were cited as Liberal achievements.

Mr. Le- Page tried in vain to go on, but the audience was obviously dhgusted with the speaker's attempt to go one better than Mr. Bethune, who had said that not more than 7o were at work on the 101M in the district. In sudden rage. w. IcPsge turned his back on the electors, cast his notes and blue books into his valise. and stalked out of the hell. through the laughing. jeering crowd. I-Ie was followed by Mr. MscPhee. Brought It on Himself "Mr. IcPsge brought it on him- self" said Mr. Currie the next speaker who was received with tumultuous applause. The beginning cf the incident was when Mr. IcPsge hsd made s re- mark ebout Premier Bennett on the previous night. m connection with the statement then made, Mr. Currie said "It was s disgrace to the people who nominated such a man." Mr. Currie made reference to the highway‘ to be built between with the McIntyre highway aspen: Ill.

Liberal inconsistcnci as regains Old Age Pensions were sccthingly referred to. The Cuban rket was not des- troyed by R. B. Bennett but by the British West Indies trade treaty negotiated by MacKenzie King, Mr. Currie declared. Mr. Currie discuss- ed the way in which Mr. Bennett ma handled the unemployment problem. m. Currie denounced the fallure of the Saunders administration to cooperate with the Conservatives premiers of Nova Scotla and New Brunswick in order to gain the sub- sidy. “He did not wish go With the others because they were not of the same strip," said Mr. Currie.

By Guardian's Special Wire) MONTREAL, July 17—(Wcdnes- claw-A fortune of $16,000,000 has just caught up with its inherltors. the Gazette states today, "and six Montreal families. jogging along in obscurity and poverty, have sud- denly been knocked dizzy with dreams." . The fortune, the paper relates, will be shared by six Montreal fam- ilies and one New Yorker. It was made in damonds by Harry Lozsck who left Blalostnck. Poland. 20 years ago for South Africa. His sister. married in a Rabbi named Starsselsuy, came to Mon- tresl with her family. “'I‘o suit the conveniences of the new world. the name was shortened to Starr and. in some cases. Star. There were six sons and one daughter—Abraham. the eldest, Morris, Harry, Sam and Solomon. Peter and Pearl. "Ten years ago the father died and the mother retunned to Poland. Abraham went tc New York where he still lives, at 51 Lewis Street. and runs a blacksmith shop. Peter died, leaving s. widow, Pauline. The others all married, Pearl Star to a man named Levi and there sre about eight children in the six Montreal families." The fortune had been chasing the families for six years, the Gazette relates. “The strangest part of one of the most romantic stories that ev- er sprang from a diamond mine is that the millions have literally gone begging all these years. bom- barding the owners time and time pgaln and being repulsed. The fun- ilies simply could not believe their luck. They had heard fairy tales about an uncle who had become a multimillionaire in Africa but their lives had been hard and they had no faith in fairy tales. Now they are convinced and their heads are swimming with visions." Insack was an ordinary mine- worker 1n Africa for s. time. the paper goes on. but he did a great deal of personal prospecting on the side, struck it lucky and almost» over night found himself fabulous- ly wealthy. His sister, struggling along in Canada used to put her grandchildren to sleep with bed- time storieg of the rich man with the gold around his neck who dug up sparkling diamonds and gave hospitals to the poor. But nothing ever came of it but pretty tales. the old lady went back to Poland and. eight years ago. died. Two years later, unaware‘ of his sister's death, Loseck himself died and left her all his millions. Then began the hunt for her children. "All the Stars received letters tell- ing them over and over again that they had inherited the fortune. first of all they msdo light of the news, treated it as e joke. laughed it sway." . Eventually Levi, husband orPersl Star. put s young lawyer. John M. Schlesinger, on the case. the paper continues.

The Government Mk8 that it be lucked on its record, but it also asks that the people consider its record in the light of diffcul- ties encountered and overcome Hon. Mr. blicPhee said. The Liberals have embodied in their ptatform a plank promisind to balance ‘the budget annually. That may mean little or much. In the Liberal Government's terms of office from 1919 to 1923 and from 192.7 to 1931, they boasted of a. balanced budget, but at the same time they went into debt. From 1927 to 1931 they claimed a bal- anced budget and several years a substantial surplus. but they went behind $1,200,000 during their per- iod of administration. What com- fort is it if they balance the bud- l get annually but at the same time imrcase the debt? Speaking at Montague Monday night ' Mr. Thane Campbell acting leader of the Liberals admitted that a bal- anced budget did not mean no in- crease in debt. It means nothing if figures are jugg!ed to show a balanced budget, but the emential | thing is, what is the final position of the Province in its financial ' position at the end of‘ any year or term of administration. That is the real question so far as fin- ances are concerned. What docs the period of Conservative admin- istration tenninating on December 31, 1034 show? It shows that ap- proximately $927,000 were added to th.) debt of the Province, explain- ed by the extraordinary expendi- ture incurred in the construction of Prince of Wales College and Falconwocd Hospital, in direct re- lief, unemployment expenditures. and interest on the borrowing to take care of the Liberal overdraft. On the other hand the present Government has added to the cre- dit of this Province at Ottawa. the sum of $3,000,000 on which the in- tereat amounting to 8100.000 per annum. will be paid to this prov- inoe annually. So far asfinanoes are concerned the present. Gov- ernment has improved the fin- anclal condition of this province to the extent. of $2.000.000- C911- tinuing Mr. McPhec dealth brLef- ly with the subsidy question re- minding the audience that a plank in the Liberal platform in 1927 promised to press the subsidy claims of this Province at Ottawa. Their performance amounted to nothing, however. The speaker also referred to the present plat- form of the Liberal Party. The third plank, "the abolition of the present extravagant system of fur- nishlng officials with motor cars" docs not say they will not be fur- nished with cars. It Just means that some other system’ will be used. In fact. said Mr. MoPhee. much of the Liberal platform is a. promise to investigate. It prom- ises an * investigation into road building. into a central jail, into Enthusialstric Reception For Govt." §P€flk€§§ the suppFyIng of text books and into canning. Would it mean any- thing to the people of the prov- ince to know they had an investi- gating Government‘! They might investlgaic and find nothing "and still come back at the end of five years and say “We have can-led out our platform." There is noth- ing concrete or constructive in the platform. or any hope that if elected they would be any differ- ent than they were before Mr. McPhee said in conclusion. . Mr. Reid Underhay the first; speaker delivered a brief address, giving most of his time to Hon. Mr. McPhee. He was received with loud applause. He dealtwlth the promism of the Liberals if" elected to balance the budget, pointing out that they do not promise to increase the debt. Mr. J. H. McDonald the senior Conservative candidate was receiv- cd by enthusiastic applause when‘ he got up m speak. Dealing with the record of the Maclviillan Gov-t ernment he pointed out that the great saving effected in the run.- ning of Falcomvood would be al- '_ most enough to merit further support without taking ‘iuto con- sideration all its other accomp- lishments. In regard to tlurfrce text books which Mr. Seville ad- vocated Mr. McDonald asked where they would draw the line. Free text books for the province would cost a large amount of money yearly. Where would they propose u; get the money to balance the budget? The speaker reminded the audience where they got the money in 1920 when they passed the tax act. Dealing with the question of roads Mr. McDonald pointed out that the present Government has relieved the people of the Prov- ince of the necessity of paying. road tax in cash. The people ares. allowed to work out their taxes on on the mad. This policy was op-l posed by the Illberal Government. because they wanted the money“ Mr. George Saville the first Liberal candidate to speak found fault with the way road work was apportioned lo the counties. He also refened to the gravel used on the road, criticising‘ the amount of Nova Scctia gravel which is being taken over in schooners. Speaking about education he said he be- lieved Dr. MacMillan was a friend. of education. He did not approve. however, of the money spent at Prince of Wales College. He claim- ed that there are 1000 children in the Province not getting any edu- cation. Mr. Saville "pledged his word" if elected he would vole against any budget which would not balance both capital and or- dinary expenditure. Mr. Wm. Hughes in the course of his address admitted that Mr. McPhee was right when no said the Liberal advocated introduc- ing another system for the sup- plying of officials with motor care. They will be provided with an al- lowance per mile theytravel, ho said. Hon. Mr. McPhee spoke brief- ly in rebuttal for Mr. Underhayi. Judge Scores International M a r ri ag es (A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) NEW YORK, July ld-Uoldly critical of international marriages in which foreign titles are swapped for hard American cash. Supreme Court Justice Salvotore A. Cotillo to clay annulled the lzveless marri- age of pretty Countess Marie Wurbrand-Stuppach of Austria to Clendenin J. Ryan. Jr., grandson of the late ‘Thomas Fortune Ryan. In confirming s. special referee's findings. the Court branded the marriage as an example of interns- tional "gold digging" by sa-celled nobility" with the beautiful. la-year old Countess as the pawn in s. game to obtain a slice of the Ryan millions. The court found that young Ryan and his mother were hoodwinked by large talk of the bride's virtue and scclal standing. but that subsequent admissions from the bride herself disclosed she had other lovers and even then loved an Austrian count. The pay-off came. the Court found. when Ryan's dark-eyed bride had demanded the right to have extra-curricular lovers cf her own. B-Yln and the Countess were married February 20. i904. in a brilliant society wedding here. The wedding trip to Havens, testimony brought out, was a continual, wrangle over double rooms and chilling repulse; by the bride. The marriage was never consum- mated the Court found.- _ Seven cablegrcyns, passionate svowals of love. were cited by the court. They were sent by the Coun- tess. durinl the period of her en- lrageuicnt. tc Count Weladimir ‘ ‘trowsky. and bevelled the necessity of her marriage as s means of financing the family.
