B. Bennett a man who was able to cope with lx: many perplexing problems." ( pplause). "hcluded, as we were from the markets of the United States and other countries by prohlbltivetar- iffs over which we had no control. the export trade of Canadaln 1930 was in a bad way. It was at this juncture that' Mr. Bennett turned his attention to Great Britain, always an_ importing nat- ion, and then, by the Ottawa Trade Agreements, found an outlet for the _primary products of Canada andsucceeded in establishing be- tween Emplra countries, compris- ing as they do, one quarter of the population of the globe, the great- est reciprocal trade agreement of the last half century. "Ladies and gentlemen, YOU have all experienced the benefits of these trade treaties in the past three years. They terminate, un- less renewed, in 1936. To whom will you intrust the task of this renewal? To Mr. Bennett, who was chiefly instrumental in their con- sumation, or to Mr. King who. without offering anythirm bei?/91'. to take their place, has strenuous- ly opposed them at every turn. "That is ohe of the questions you will be asked to answer by your ballots on the lith day of October. “Mr. McLure and I have reP' resented you in Parliament durln8` the past five years and our record is before you. At your request. as expressed in convention, we are again seeking your suffrage. “We take this opportunity of thanking you for your support in the past, and we respectfully sol- icit your votes and influence in the forthcoming contest." (Ap- plause). . ` Mn. Mcwns Nothing, said Mr. W._Chester S. McLure. the next speaker., could give hlm greater pleasure than to be one of this vast audience, gath- ered to do honour to Canad:.‘s great Prime Minister and great Plmplft builder, the Rt. Hon. R.. B. Ben- nett. He did not intend making any lengthy remarks. “I am here on this'platform because you have your candidate in the last election You have again honored us to carry your banner on October 14 into power. I thank you most sincerely for that expression of confidence. Your support on October 14 will give Premier Bennett an oppor- tunity of further developing Can- ada and her institutions." (Ap- plause). EX-PREMIER MACMILLAN “As 1 look back over the period of my llfe," said ex-Premier Mac- Millan, who also received enthusi- astic gpplause, "I have experienced times of joy and pride, but at no time in my life, either private or political, have I felt greater pride than at this present moment when the honour devolves upon me of introducing Canada's greatest Prime Minister, and Prince Edward Is- land’s bert friend." (Applause). In my capacity of Premier of this Province for two years, and as act- ing premier for over a year before that, I probably have had more to do with Mr.`Bennett than any one else in this Province. And I know that my colleagues in the late gov- emment will agree with me -that whenever we went to Ottawa on those 'picnics' which the Liberal press was so fond of talking about `-when we went there with propos- als for the benefit of this province we always met with tha greatest consideration from Mr. Bennett and his cabinet. “It is nearly five years since the first of those ‘picnics'. began. The man who went to Ottawa at that time is now Minister oi' Public Works in the C_i_»overnment of this Province.`He started those 'picnics' and came back with $90,000. Yet there is not a man in political life on the Liberal side in this prov- ince who has ever said one kind thing about Canada's Prime Min- ister. "Two or three days after we were elected in ml. the , into Premier Stewart and myself went to Otta- wa and came back with $113,000 of unemployment money. In‘ 1933 we came beck with $125,000 of unem- ploymeut money. "More than that, the special dis- ability under which this Province has lain for seveni rem rtzlrdlns excessive rates on the Car Ferry, was put before Mr. Bennett and his cabinet. We had the pleaallle of hearing the Prime Minister say to I ' v itil; si’ I i §"”=.:"“.......- .°:.::'..': . ;-&;»,.,g‘,~V W A _N _ rates. ri:”'1-‘3i*li.;»i*I;f‘§i;f\ ‘f'i,~”i.»-;`- ’+'~f‘;%.*’¢»ii'f~1;"'F" F - * rv V y ' li' i ‘b . _ \_l~"'» , . .

Highway _"Again Mr. Bennett kept his promise in saying that he would assist in building a trans-Canada highway so far as connecting this capital city of the Island with Borden is concemed. Last year we went to Ottawa and received from him an initial 850.000 to build two miles of concrete road at Borden. Om that trip we came home with $112,000, the balance being for the beginning of the trans-Canada highway. This year we went back again, and came home with over one-quarter of o million dollars for the trans-Canada. highway, and be- fore this month is out we hope to see this capital connected with Bor- den by a great highway which should be named the Bennett High- way. (Applau:e). _ “Is it any wonder, then, that I should take this first opportunity I have had in Mr. Bennettls pres. once of extending the thanks of the government of the day for what he has done for this Province. "I am not going into those other questions of direct relief, old age pensions, etc. ,suffice it to ray that in cold cash n the last four years we have received from the Ben- nett Govemment in this province away over One Million Dollars. "Lastly I must mention the Rus-_ llco highway for the benefit cr those people who have been clam-i ouring for years for rail connec- tion which they never got, where not even a. beginning was made with the exception of some rtakes that were generally put down by the Liberals before an election. The people of that isolated community have thesatiafactlon of knowing that their hard-surface road is go- ing down now, and that their dif- ficulty will be solved. `Dr. Manton.

I remember sitting in the l-louse of Commons in the gallery, listening to Mr. Bennett enunciating his reform policies. Mr. King took objection; claiming he had dealt with those policies long ago. Mr. Bennett ask- ed, 'What did you do with them? and the Liberal leader replied, ‘I put them in a. book.’ lt was a little book, confined to onli'-'lon long ago. But the present Prime Minister has put his ideas into the statutes _of Canada, where they arenow work- ing for the benefit of the country.” (Applause). "You need not take my opinion on the stand which the Prime Min- ister has taken during the past five years. Go to the independent tri- bunal which is the best judge of the standards of govemment in every country in the world,-the League of Nations. What do they saysbout Canada? That Canada is leading the world out of this de- pression, and will come out of it with her resources intact.`wlth the character and spirit of her people undaunted.~ (Applause). “If that is so, who is responsible? lsn't it the msn who is head of the government, the man who has rteerod the destlnies of Canada during the five most difficult years of her history?

Reaisting Successfully Ras Seyoum, commanding the northem troops, reported to the Emperor that the manpower of the two armies is equal and said the Ethiopians had been resisting suc- cessfully despite their enemies' su- perior weapons - airplanes and tanks. ‘ EAHRERN - Italy’s claim to the capture of Wayeta, Ethlopians said, possesses little military importance because the place faces an (almost lmpassable desert. EXTREME SOU'I’H-Mussolini's reported capture of Dolo was deem- ed unimportant strategically since here again the Italian troops face a wide and forbidding desert. The Empcr-or's line of defence on eastem and southwestem fronts, it was emphasized, is along mountains and behind deserts.

I send to you and all my troops my high praise and the gratitude of the nation.” For three days, while Ethiopian warriors held the city, Italy had waited to celebrate the occupation of Aduwa-symbol of the crushing Italian defeat in IHS and now its symbol of victory. There were no newspapers today inform the nation and to organ- a celebration.

Il Duce was reported in well-informed quartersto be meet- ing- with almost as much success as his forces in Africa. Persons close _io the govemment said he was satisfied France will` oppose military sanctions and they are convinced Great Britain will refrain from keparate use of force. These persons also pointed to the modified tone of the battlefield communiques to emphasize the hu- mane aspects of the “expedition” as efforts to avoid exciting Geneva unduly while the League of Na- tions decision hangs fire. A communlque from the African front, issued prior to today's fight- ing. said the assault on Aduwa had been resumed at dawn by the seo- ond army corps. Fresh victories were officially re- ported for Saturday-the third day of war- . l Other Successes On the¢ northern Ethiopian front General Santini Ruggero ran up the Italian flag on the ruins of the Adigrat fortress, which collapsed in the crushing defeat of May 18, 1896. In the southeast, the Italians af- ter brief fighting occupied Gerlog- ubi yesterday morning, the govern- ment announced. (The Addas Ababa correspondent of Reuters News Agency reported Italian planes had, bombed Ger- logubi. 30 miles from Walwal, kill- ing 40 soldiers). An . official communique an- nounced the steady advance of the various columns in the north had put within Italian control much of the population. The text of the cnmmunique fol- lows: - Yesterday, Oct. 5, our flag which on May ll, 1896, was taken down from the fort of Adigrat was raised- againontheruinsofthesamefort by the strong foroea of the first army corps commanded by General Santini ftuggero.

The second army corps. which had a more difficult terrain to handle, reached the outlying dis- tricts of Aduwa. Aviation cooperated efficiently with the various columns.
