Unusual attention had been de- voted to the Maritime Provinces in the budget debate and in re- cent mlnlsterial announcements. he said. election in the offing, Mr. Speak- er." he said. "then and only then is an attempt made to recognize the fact that the Maritime Pro- "! am almost envious," he add- ed, "that we haven't a by-election coming lip soon in Prince Edward Island." In more serious vein. Mr. Mc- L-ure ‘said he was pleased indeed at the large number of members of all parties from the Maritime Provinces who took part in the budget debate and who ably call- ed the attention of the merit to the outstanding needs of the east coast provinces. “It afforded me a real pleas- ure." he continued, "when our good friend from Davenport, Joliri R. MacNicol, climaxed the Mari- time section of this debate with a splendid first-hand and authorit- ative summary of our needs and ways and mean of overcoming some of our chief difllculties." Smell Attendance The Queen's member chided his fellow-members of the House on the small attendance of the past two weeks. "When a private mem- ber gets up to speak now," lie said, “members scuttle out of the chamber as if some ship captain had shouted "All ashore that's going ashore." For himself. he had attended every sitting of the House since the debate opened and listened to every speech made by a member of any party from the Maritime Provinces. Mr. Mc- Lure recalled Winston Churchill's famous remark on ‘blood, sweat and tears’. ‘ "This budget." he said. "may have meant sweat for the Finance Minister and his colleagues. but it certainly meant tears for the tax- payers of Canada. When the searchllght is cast on the budget. "the nigger in the wood-pile ap- pears. The budget as it stands is stifling production. accentuatlng unemployment and fostering dis- content." Unhlr Budget A fairer of manner reducing taxation than set with iii LhPi 1947 budget, Mr. McLure said. would be to exempt entirely from income tax single persons earn- ing 01300 and under, married per- sons without dependents earning $2.000 and under, and married persons with dependents earning $2.500 and under. "This budget in my opinion." he said. "is particularly unfair to women. notably to married wo- men who now receive tax exemp- tion of only S250 a year instead of the former S000. "It looks very much is though now that the war is over. the Government has no further use foi- the women of this country, and this despite the known scar- city of nurses and school-teach- ers sll across the Dominion." The budget, the Queen's mem- ber charged, ofiered no relief for business, no relief for the farmer and no treaties for the fisherman. In addition. little if anything had been done. he said. to clear up the beaureaucratic incompetence and reckless spending tendencies of some of the departments, boards and commissions. Mr. McLure told the House that he had received many complaints from his constituency of Queen's over continuance of the tax on chocolate bars and soft drinks. Unhappy Spectacle "In the budget.“ he said. "we have the u ‘* spectacle of the Minister of National Iqlm and Welfare handing out baby bonuses with one hand and the Minister of Finance sneaking a- round the corner and ‘swiping the children's candy and soft drinks with the other." The Queen's member strongly urged lifting the existing tax on clocks and watches on the grounds that they were household and everyday necessities and not luxuries.

Speaking of the part service clubs such as the Kinsmen were playing in world circles the speaker "said it would be well to consider that the service clubs are an outgrowth of a way of -ii!e that belongs to only ten per cell‘. of the world, and the speaker further added that it "would be better if the United Nlatlons As- sembli-es would guage their le- ilberatlons by the Success gained by service clubs such as the Kins- men.

The death rate nu dropped markedly in this ggyttmiy, dug to filtration and chemical treatment of water supplies, pasteurization of milk. and the control of disease-germ curlers.

Just really getting underway. this interesting addition to the business community already offers a variety of seasonable furnish- ings for public inspection. Among the attractive and orn- amental and unusually practical pieces of garden furniture which might be viewed at this plant are a wheel-barrow garden bench. a roll-about lounge, trellis, .duck rocker garden chair, and garden flower boxes. There are also several pieces of children's furniture such as rock- ing horses and outdoor sand box- es with canvas top. Novelties include kitchen knick- knacks, wall flower pot holders of ship silhouette design, and fold- away coffee tables. The Chandler Vifoodworking to Order Plant is in a sense feeling its way in settling into the life of the business community, but there is every indication that the many fine pieces of furniture, custom made, will find a ready market m many homes of our city and Pro- vince. The brothers George and Stuart Chandler are engaged in the ent- erprise and have recently con- cluded courses in woodworking following discharge from the ser- vices. Though lacking in prac- tical experlence of a lengthy nat- ure both young men are anxious to produce work which will please the customer and prepare them for expansion of business when restrictions on many of the finer materials are lifted.

Professor Mowat stressed the importance of visual education I and supplemented his statements: by showing charts and other forms f of drawingwhlch his studentsi had done as a means toward in- creasing their knowledge of gee-i graphy, history, and allied sol», iects. It is true. Professor I-Iowat ldiC. that sound is the fundamen cl i means by which human beings‘, enter into and maintain commit.» cation with each other. That is ivhy it is easier to educate a. blind , person than one who is deaf. ', Nevertheless. Professor Mowat‘ said, the teaching of such a sub- ject as geography to children by sound alone, that is, by having i them memorize the names of riv- ers, countries, populations, etmi was a poor method. He llluslrat- , ed the point by showing maps his students had drawn in which the density of population, physical features, rainfall, etc., vierc ' graplxl-cally depicted through vary- ing colours. Such work, the Professor odd, fastened the facts more securely in the student's mind and slate the work should be clone corral‘.- ly with a proper sense of perspec- tive. proportion. and neatness, it tended to develop an apprecia- ti-on of beauty.
