If we assume this responsibil- ity and realize that we are nation builders we solve the great problem of nation building." said Mr. R. W. E- Burnaby, Maritime Trade Com- missioner, in Toronto, in addressing the Gyro Club at Beach Grove Inn last evening. 1n his opening xe- marks Mr. Burnaby referred to the gift oi a radio to the Provincial Sanatorium and reminded the members that besides doing good they receive good from being mem- bers oi a service club. Mr. Burnaby brought a message to the members oi the Charlotte- town Gyro Club which was to bring home to them‘ the great re- sponsibility before them of build- ing a. nation. "We have a. respon- sibility. We are building a nation," he raid. A nation is built like a building. First architects are consulted and plans and specifications are drawn up. Then consideration Ls given to the foundation, material and the question oi laborers. In Canada, we have had a wonderful body oi ar- chitects, the Fathers of Confeder- ation, who started in Charlottetown, and later continued at Quebec. They had the British North Ameri- ca Act ior a. plan and intended 1n- terprovinclal Trade to be the foun- dation. The materials were the nat- ural resources of the various parts oi the country; the workmen, our citizens. I With this as a background let, us consider our responsibilities. Mari- time people are to be iound all over Canada. The Maritime Prov- inces entered Confederation because oil the hope oi Interprovlncial ‘Trade. That is why the Intelqcnlon- ial Railway was built. They hoped to have great national ports. Now, we must have the support and cooperation of pll our citizens to avoid delay. We must get to- gether and try to understand each others viewpoint. Differences oi opinion between the East and West because oi geography should be overcome. No opportunities should be allowed to pass- Brush away sec- tionalism. There should be no West. Central, or East, but one nation. One oi the first steps is to get to know each other better. The Maritime Provinces Association was formed in Toronto several years ago because oi a desire on the part oi Maritimers in Toronto to ren- der a service to their birthplace- the Plovinccs-by-the-Sea. The un- even balance oi trade was most as- tounding. A Trade and Tourist oi- ilce supported by_ the Maritime Provinces, was opened. The Island directors are Mr. Boulter and Mr. Bradshaw. An important object of the organization is to promote the sale oi Maritime products in Cen- tral Canada and to direct tourist traffic from there to the Maritimes. We should seek tourists not for the money they may spend but to get acquainted with them and ex- change viewpoints. There was not much known about the terms of the B. N. A. Act till after the Dun- can Report was made. 1i Ontario industrialists would visit the Marl- times and see the miners and fish- ermen at work their eyes would be opened in amazement at our great resources. Ii the rest of Canada was educated to our problems and de- sires there would be less trouble getting legislation passed. The new car ferry should be a tourist trade stimulant. An object oi the Association is to promote better trade relations. We should not say that ii what we pro- duce is also produced in Central Canada. we cannot sell our products there. Ii the Maritime Provinces could Just sell Central Canada ten percent oi what she imports we would have a new era oi prosper- ity here- Mr. Burnaby went on to enumer- ate some of the possibilities for Maritime trade with Central Can- ada. He spoke oi a moss used for fuel. Large quantities are imported by Ontario from the States but ninety-two percent oi all the North American supply,is in New Bruns- wick and Nova Scotla. Central Canada imports large quantities of crushed oyster shell but there is enough here to keep Canada going. l-ie also told of the possibilities for the sale oi boxes, shocks. barrels. salt fish, etc. i-fe mentioned that n gunnery imported huge quantities of crude cod liver oil from Boston. but could be obtained in Nova Can Be Created Mr. R. PV. E. Burnaby, Maritime Trade‘ Commissioner, Gives A Most Inspiring »Address To "Mem- bers Of Charlottetown Gyro Club. Scotia. He told oi a. plan that has been put into operation for the sale oi clams. He went on to tell what the de- velopment oi Internprovincial Trade means to us. It is developing the idea the Fathers if Confederation had in mind. The more Central Canada buys from the Maritime Provinces, the more the Maritimes can buy from Central Canada. Providence being their guide, the Fathers of Confederation builded better than they knew. They were great architects. They made the plans and specifications.

BERLIN, July 2'l.—Germany's “Iron ChancelloW-Henrich Bruen- lug-returned with Foreign Minist- er Curtius from the Seven Power Conference today and almost im- mediately proceeded to the presid- ential palace to report the results of the London meeting to the aged president, Field Marshal Paul Von Hindenburg. Then Herr Brueuing hastened the Chancellery ior an urgent Cabinet session at which Germany's plight was discussed. The Cabinet; sestion was expected to last until a few minutes before the arrival late this afternoon oi United states secretary oi State, Henry L. Stimson. Meanwhile ordinary citizens wor- ricd about pay day. At the end oi the month, when pay clay is supposed to come, the Reichsbank will have to meet pay- ments oi 2,000,000,000 marks (about $468,000,000») Civil servants have been informed that “they'll get only half their due on July 31, with the rest to follow in terl days." ‘The enormous demand on the Rcichsbank gave rise to universal debate about whether the cash would be available to pay oii the nation. Citizens, who have been skimping along with little money, hope ior the best. Linked with this urgent matter l5 the problem of Reichsbnng dir- cction.

(Loud or plausc.) “'i‘hat is not the Conservatives’ idea oi a. platform" Dr. MacMillan continued. “We don't go back and repudiate what has been promised by the party. We believe that a platform is a tentative agreement with the electors which, if elected, we are in duty bound to carry out. You cannot point to a single plank in the Conservative platform of 1923 that was not implemented to the letter. But what oi the Liberal plat- form o! I921? I heard Premier Lea the other night get up and repud- iate that platform. He alleged that Mr. Saunders had made the plat- fonn and that the party had to swallow it. What do you think oi that? (Increased applause.) ANSWERS PERSONAL ATTACKS The touting of Premier Lea as the "farmer Premier’ ‘and the at- tempt to garble Dr. MacMillan's statements made at the Capitol Theatre in this connection, were also scored. “I have nothing to say against Mr. Lea because he is a farmer. But I have a good deal to say against him because he is Pre- mier. When a man becomes Prem- ier it does not matter whether he is a lawyer, a doctor, s, farmer, or anything else. he must measure up to his position and he must expect to be crltlclsrd when he makes mis- takes. This silly prattle that the Patriot newspaper is putting out does not fool anyone. (Applause) They think they will get a few vot- es on that account, but I will say what I said in Charlottetown, that Premier Lea has always put ani- mals above human beings." “They say Dr. MacMillan never did anything for public health on. less he was well paid for it. I have been well paid for it. I have the satisfaction of knowing that, l have done something for the youth of this Province in Red Cross work, in the Children's Aid Society and In public health gcnerally. I am not like that man who uttered the slander against me. I was not paid 5°!‘ my work as he was paid when He hi», could land $500 of his shop-worn boots into Faleonwood Hospital! That is the kind of payment that he exacted, but it is not the kind that I exacted." (Lould pplause.) vigorously scoring Mr. Mgr-k Me- Guigan for his campaign in the last election in which he urged the people to “keep the Governments in line," Mr. J. A. MacDonald ex- llosed the Liberal candidate's pres- ent inconsistency and asked the audience to take note of the fact that he had approved oi the pol- icies in the Conservative platform. VOICE: “Why didn't he take up his own?" MR. MCDONALD: "He didn't have any to take. (Laughter). It is a good thing for Mr. McGulsan that he has the Conservative platform with him, otherwise he would not have anything to falk about. (Ap- plause). ' “Ii he is iiolhg on Mr. Clark's platform. it is a pretty shaky plat- form to go on," he added, while the audience again applauded. "Denying that he had made any personal attack upon Hon. Mr. Clark at previous meetings, Mr. MacDonald pointed out that as a public man the Government can- didate must expect to have his re- cord crltlclscd and examined. There was loud applause when Mr. MacDonald referred to the far- cical prohibition enforcement and charged that there was o conspir- acy on the part of certain mem- bers of the Lca Government to let certain bootleggers oif- "ii they glvc us a proper tribunal," he stat- ed, “we are prepared to prove that statement." "Where," asked Mr. MacDonald, "did the McIntyre road machinery commission go? Perhaps Mr. Clark can tell us. I asked him the other night, and I am asking him again. What we do know ls that the Pub- lic Works Minister was challenged on the floor of the l-lousc In 1928 to table all the correspondence in connection With this purchase, and he said there was no uOITBSPOIId- once as he had ordered the machin- ery by telephone. Referring to the costly highway experiment which is now benig con- tinued on the St. Peters Road, Mr. McDonald said: f‘! suppose he will call thLs. the McIntyre Highway Number 2—or will he call it the Clark highway. Honnlvir. Clark, who followed Mr. MacDonald, tried vainly to offset the challenging criticism of his op- ponents by references to the Ben- nett sales tax and tariifs- v "What has local politics got to do with that," he, was asked by the audience. And when he persisted, there were further interruptions: been guilty of any political inter- ference and offered to pay $500 to the Orphansges if anyone could prove it he had "ever interfered with the Magistrate or the Prohib- ition Commission in any way with rograd to bootleggers or rum run- ners." He declared that he was innocent of such interference in the McGuirk case; that he had been "drawn" into this case because the Mc- Gulrks came to see him and asked him to get them clear; that he had told them he could do nothing for them and that subsequently they threatened not to vote for him and Mr. McGuigan. The only question he had asked the Magistrate in the McGuirk case was how much fine their offense would carry, and the Magistrate had told him $200. Mr- Mark McGuigan, the opening speaker at the meeting. defended the Lea. Government's volte face on Statute Labour With the argument that when the Government abol- ished this system, "times were good," but now the people want work on the roads. "Taking their whole platform." he said of his opponents, “it only means that they approve of the policy of the Lea Government. They have not anything new to offer the people. Mr. McGuigan frankly admitted that the Stewart Government had done “a considerable amount" of work under the Dominion Highways grant, and that when the Saunders Government came into power “they found the main roads in good con- dition." The secondary roads, he claimed, had been neglected and the road machinery had been pur- chased on borrowed money for this work. Mr. McGuigan defended Mr. Mac- kenzie King's notorious five-cent piece speech, arguing that Mr. King had not said he would not give five cents to a Tory Province, but. that he would not give it to a Tory province “to squander," The speaker also endorsed the political conduct of his colleague. Mr. Clark. Mr- M. W. Wood enhanced the favorable impression he had made at previous meetings and drew rounds of applause as he scored the Guvernmcn‘ s irresponsibility in the purchase oi the highway machin- ery, its extravagant expenditures, spoke also of the disorderly conduct oi certain individuals at the York meeting and expressed surprise at the Patriot's distorted report of the proceedings. lVLr. Gordon Holmes, Charlotte- town, counsel who represented Hon. Mr. Clark, at the first hearing of the McGuirk prohibition case be- fore Magistrate Tweedy and who on that occasion had asked that the newspaper report of the proceed- ings be suppressed, spoke in support of the Liberal candidates. Mr- Holmes had much to say about prohibition under the Con- scrvatives-but nothing as to the Lee. Government's record in that respect. Dr. MacMillans whirlwind speech, to which reference is made above, was a fitting climax to a meeting which had registered enthusiastic approval of the Conservative plat- form and policies. The chairman, Mr. Leonard Court, presided capably and impar- tially.

S. Roper of Hali- fax, Dominion President of the Le- gion, sets forth his official views on the administration of the present pensions legislation of Canada. De- claring that the has come m: plain. speaking Meier R011" says: “The deplorable state of af- fairs which now exists was never contemplated by anyone and it. is so cruelly unfair that in the inter- ests oi the country it ought not. to continue." He states after review of the sit- uation, that unless within a very short space of time, a complete transformation takes place, the L68- lon will have no alternative but to again approach parliament for a revision of the pensions administ- ration on drastic grounds. "Last, year, Parliament, among other actions, designed for the wel- fare of ex-service mennilflrtlcularly the disabled and their dependents, a new pension system which went even beyond the proposals advanc- ‘ed by the Canadian Legion."

He complimented the people oi Rustico on their spacious hall, re- marking that it showed the kind of stuff our grandfathers were made oi when they hauled the stones a distance oi ten miles. When Mr. MacPhee made the re- mark that all the planks in the Conservative platform hod been already implemented by the Liber- als, there was a storm of protesta- tion "and the chainnan had much difficulty in quieting the audience. Almost a complete lull in the racket followed when Mr. MucPhee completed his address. MR. JENKINS’ SPEECH “If you elect a. party on their re- cord, you give them a blank cheque with which they can do what they like and you have no comeback," said Mr. L. L. Jenkins. “Look at their record. They doubled the debt of the Province. Money was nothing to them. The machinery they bought could not have been sold to anyone but the Government of Prince Edward Island- $400,000 went over to the other side for gravel. Premier Sound told a committee which waited upon him, that he would go to the country on Prohib- ition, Government Control, Light Wines and Beer, Free Rum or any other policy which would ensure his election." Mr. Jenkins then repeat- ed what he had said at other meet- lngs about liquor being landed at Rustico in daylight; Voices: “That's right!" The Subsidy settlement, Railway taxation, and old age pensions were dealt with in turn. Also the polit- ical pressure brought to bear in the enforcement of the Prohibition Act under the Lea. Government. MR. LEPAGE "Being a. member of the executive I was in a. position to help you people more than an ordinary member,” said Hon. B. W. LePage. Voices: "But you didn't!" (Ap- plause and Jeers). Mr. LcPage repeated his state- ment that he had never promised anyone an Old Age Pension. If he did so he wished him to come for- zvard. A gentleman appeared on the platform stating that he was one to whom the pension was promised. Mr. LePage ignored him and con- tinued to roar at the top of his voice, but the meeting by this time was also in an uproar, and it is doubtful if many heard him. Mr. LePage declared that only two men were released on Ticket of Leave. Voice: "Are you one?" ter).', Finally Mr- IePage was forced to sit down without concluding his speech. ‘ Mr. Bethune came back strongly in rebuttal, stressing the import- ance of electing a Government that would be in line with the progress- ive policies of the administration at Ottawa and which could be de- pended upon to press successfully our subsidy claims. A vote of thanks was given to the chairman for his effort at keep- illg order, and his impartial attit- ude. (Laugh- cloubt that might exist. As it reads in the statute books, the legislation is without question the fairest and broadest pension law in the world. Upon its enactment, Parliament, the public, and certainly the exscr- vice men's organizations believed that, insofar as the machinery was concerned, the last word had been said and the last act done, with the possible exception of minor ad- justments. 'I‘llc record o.‘ the cases disposed of by the pension tribunals and the pension appeal court, at ihc end of June, 1931, however will tell a graphic story. The outstand- ing fact is that at the present rate of progress more than one half of the favorable decisions rendered by the tribunal are being appealed to the appeal court, and more than one half of the appeals being so taken are being upheld. This moans that a very large number cf men . "3 CARDIGAN (Continued —-—- 1) crease although the Government had expensive facilities for law on‘. forcement. ' "In comparison with the records)‘; prohibition enforcement, and law enforcement generally oi the Ina Government, the record oi thi Stewart Government is resplendent’? Mr. McPllce stated. "We feel very confident of making our enforce- ment compared wlth that preceding, a splendid enforcement." ' Mr. John Musiard Mr. John Mustard first dealt with the prohibition question. He argued, that the position of the Conservat- ivc party with regard to the Pro- llibition Act was on awkward one._ “They say we promised to make‘ the province a new heaven and i! new earth. New that their opport- unity has come, perhaps they will make it hell with the lid oil" said Mr. Mustard, thus unintentionally, admitting his belief that the Con- servatives would be elected. Mr. Mustard criticised the policy of pub- lic works of the Stewart Govern- ment. Therc was no other policy that the succeeding government could adopt except to purchase road machinery. Mr. Mustard contend- ed that the / Conservative policy had been borrowed from the Lib- erais. “Ii you will glance over that you will find that there is nothing new, nothing constructive, nothing orig- inal, lt was the policy followed by the Liberals," he said. , Mr. Mustard discussed old agd pensions at considerable length. Mr. Leslie Hunter Mr. Leslie Hunter remarked that the first speaker, Mr. Hessian, deall with neither the record of the gov- ernment nor its program for the next term ii returned to power. Haj congratulated Mr. Mustard on stick- ing to the issues before the people. He had said that there was noth- ing new in the Conservative plat- form, but the speaker contended that if rigid economy were begun if would be something new. It was hoped that a reduction in the cost of school books might be effected through co-operatirll; with the other two Maritime Provinces. Special attention should be given to the winter roads as there was much hauling clone in the winter, and as there were large sums of money spent on the roads in the! summer. Mr. Hunter criticised the public works department for not following up the road work after machinery and widening the road- way. The Liberals had but one plank in their platform, that is to continue their policy of hard sur- facing the highway. Mr. Hunter contended that the debt of the Pro- vince did not warrant the contin- uance of that policy. At $18 an acre it would take 186,000 acrvs of land to pay off the present debt. The Lib- crals have a "broadening out“ pol- icy of, as Mr. McIntyre said in the Legislature, spending more money. The chairman, Dr. Allan, con- gratulated the audience on thv splendid order maintained.
