"At u banquet of the Women's Institutes the Premier told them he was surprised at their good table manners, and at the way they could handle their silver- ware," Dr. MacMlllan recalled. “At s teachers’ meeting he told them tl. t half of what they were learn- ing and teaching was no good I submit the next time the Premier goes away they send some respon- sible party with him who will scrutinize what he is going to sny: because if he gets up and speaks entemporsneously he will sways be in trouble." (Lau hter). Dr. MacMillan said he found the long-winded in his experience; and it contaLned nothing tangible. The picture of agriculture given in section 30 was quite different to that described by the membe- Isom Annandale (Mr. Seville) in sccondlng the Address. Returned Men Neglected He also took issue with the statement in the Speech, to the effect that returned men needing hospitalization are getting “the best possible care and attention.’ “Our returned men are not get- ting thg attention they deserve” the Opposition leader declare . The two hospitals in this City are unable to accommodate all the vet- erans needlng hospitalization. It true there was an agreement by which the P.!.' I. and Charlotte- town Hospitals would receive $76.. 000 each on condition the provid- ed accommodation for ffty beds each, and that condition was to be in force for the next thirty years. Actually it cost between 04,000 and 00000 per bed to pro- vide homltal accommod tion. Thor are many unemployed vat- in the Province, Dr. Mac- Mlllan said. These man have to live on their hard earned gratuit- ies, and after that what were they going to do? They can not even get housing accommodatlo . "The Pe eral Government," he charged. “has been most negligent ry. Why wasn't this anticipated two years ago not much wonder that tn ver they just walked in and took chars, of the Vancouver Hotel. and.no government authorit dar- ed to interfere. How wo a Premier like it if U0 returns man took possession of this bulld- lng for housing accommodation?" Dr. Maehlillsn quoted a recent statement by Mr. B. k.

A third accused, Harold E wards, 2f, was sentenced to 15 years in penitentiary. The jury following the custom- flnai pleas by defence and crown counsel, and the summing- up by the judge. reduced the mur- der charge to that-of manslaugh- ter, and found all three guilty. A recommendation for mercy was added in the case of Edwards. Boisvert was shot during an attempted holdup at the front doorway of his Sis. Hubert Street home, situated above his tavern. Roger Chatelols, a companion of the three convicted men turned King's evidence and acted as s prosecution witness. He testified that it was Walsh who held the gun that shot Boisvert when the tavern owner attempted to rebuff the robbery attempt. Chatelols is, scheduled to be tried separately on the murder charge, as likewise is Leo Merci], a former employee at the Boisvert tavern who allegedly assisted in the holdup plans. ‘ subject we do so by asking ques- tions and debating the answers.

MaoMillan id warm trib- ute to his former ieutenant in the House, Mr. H. F. Mdihee. He regretted to see another ses- slon without an Attorney General in the Legislature. It was not in keeping tvith the rights of parlia- ment. "I don't know how many members the Premier has asked to resign in the last year-even members of the Government," he added. "And they all said No; if they resigned the Attorney Gen- eral wouldn't be nominated in any case- and if he were nominated he would not get elected. These peo- ple, I suggest, are better judges of the trend of political events than . the Premier is.” Dr. MacMillan reviewed world conditions, particularly the food shortage threatening many coun- tries with starvation. I-le took strong exception to statements made Dr. Brock Chisholm, Deputy M nister ofPub- l' Welter; at Ottawa, charging the clergy with wrongly teaching Canadian children. Dr. MacMlllan was surprised that any govern- ment would retain such an official after such insulting remarks, He referred to the heroism shown by Canadian soldiers in the war, and in this connection to the inspiring ipvestiture ceremony at Governmen House on Tuesday.
