Public OTTAWA, Oct. .5—(C.P.)-—-.P0ssl- bility of Manitoba working out a scheme for debt reductions in its drought-stricken areas, similar to that announced for Saskatchewan recently, was indicated by Hon. J. G. Gardiner, Minister of Agricul- ture, on his retum from Western Canada today. Mr. Gardiner said the Federal Government could not refuse to treat the other drought-stricken provinces, Manitoba and Alberta, in the sumo way as Saskatchewan. Premier John Bracken of Manitoba had indicated he might present a scheme but Mr. Gardiner had not seen Premier: William Abcrhart of Alberta and none of the other A1- bcrta ministers had mentioned it. The minister was unable to say what the Saskatchewan debt slash would cost the Federal Government bu: said that on seed grain account debts tifliillillg $6,990,000 due the Dominion would be wiped out. The other Federal debts affected arose out of advances made to Saskatche- wan for relief purposes. About half the settled area of Saskatchewan, 158 municipalities are in the drought area and will benefit by the debt slash. These farmers got. 36 bushels to Reform Issue ls Shel ved Ho Immediate Action Re Constitution Planned. OTTAWA, Oct. 5—-(CP) —- Con- ~stitutl0nal reform, a live issue in pnlllicill circles just before the last pnrlirlmsnlaiy session, will not be rcvircd so fur as the Government 1s ccnccrited until aficr the Im- perial Conference next summer, it “'11s learned on good authority to- uiy.

In Government circles it is felt that. with prospects of a short ses- sion in i937 because of the corona- tion and Imperial Conference, such an important move as revision or re-writing of the British North America Act should not be at- tempted. Parliament will probably assemble early in January and pro- rogue in time to permit ministers to reach London for the corona- DEBT RED uc TIONS FOR OTHER DROUGHT STRICKEN PRO vuvcEs ent Likely To Be Obligated Other Provinces F 011 owing Saskatchewan. the acre or two normal crops in six years. On this basis interest charges for four years prior to Jan. 1, 1935 were wiped out. The mort- gage companies affected would re- ceive no compensation, Mr. Gardiner said the figure of $75,000,000 mentioned as the tctal of the debt cut was only an estimate. The mortgage companies had esti- mated their contribution would be between $40,000,000 and $45,000,000. The Provincial Government contri- bution would be between salmon; and $6,000,000. The Dominlorrs share was not ascertained and in addition the municipalities were foregoing arrears of taxes which would amount to u. considerable sum. The debt cut was only operative in the 1935 drought-stricken muni- cipulities. The corresponding areas in Manitoba and Alberta were smaller and if similar schemes were adopted there the amounts involved would not be so large. In Manitoba there were nine municipalities which would qualify this year but some 20 or 30 had been treated as in the drought area in other years. Albera had 80 drought-stricken municipalities and this number might be increased to as many as 120. Commissioners _ iiill Sit Here .(C.l'.

Closer Relationship With Empire Urged (GP. By Guardians Special Wire) TORONTO; Oct. 5—(C.P.)—A closer political and economic relat- ionship with the rest of the Empire. and participation in Empire defence, are essential for Canada, Hon. G. Howard Ferguson, former Canadian Commissioner for London, told the‘ Canadian Club today. Canada could not play the part of an isolationist, he said. Even from) the standpoint of sentiment she ' could not renounce her birthright and turn her back on the mother- lnn.

The vote was 1336.000 to 5m,- i 000. l The vote was taken after con- flicting addresses by party leaders“ Arthur Greenwood warned an inter- vention policy would mean orer_ throw of the Populrn- Front Govern- ment in France, WlliCil initiated non-intervention, and h i~ would “result in destruction of (no of the barriers against dictatorship and fascism."

Speaker Sees Threat To Great Britain I interesting Address l 0n “Present Im- perial Outlook” By‘; Dr. H. L. Stewart. “It is obvious that British Im- perialism is now the object of a new and formidable challenge. Ger- man and Italian newspapers es- pecially are full of it," Dr. H. L- Stewart of Halifax told an intensely interested audience at Hcnrtz Hall last evening. The distinguished 1e¢y,urer, who . is professor of. philosophy at Dalhousic University. was-speaking on “Great Brilnifis present Imperial outlook." He nus speaking under the auspices of tho the Empire. “The small island whose explor- ers, settlers, soldiers and sailors have brought so great a part of tho globe either under Britssh rule or under predominantly British influ- ence, is being sununoncd as ncvcz- before to justify, to abate or share these world wide pretensions." Dr. Stewart continued. It is impossible to mistake the new tone which has entered into diplomatic exchange between Lou- don on the one hand and Berlin. Tokyo and Rome on the other. Fire ‘ years ago, when the world economic crisis began to be felt with full; force in Japan, and the Japanese ‘ foreign trade fell by over 30 por cent in the course of a year, it uus decided at Tokyo that the only wuy .‘ out was the annexation of ltilm- . churla. when the British rcmon- strated the Japanese replied that they were doing nothing that other I .1.!?.i.i9us. suds-specially Enzlnnd 11nd not clone in the past.
