He contrasted Mr. Lincoln with Napoleon Bona- parte who could watch a thousand soldiers die without even the twitching of a facial muscle. This pent world conqueror was almost devoid of feeling. In contrast Mr. Lincoln deemed it worth his while w write a letter to a widow who had lost five sons in the Civil War. This letter concluded with a prayer to the Heavenly Father that he woyltl tornfcrt her in her anguish and bereavement.

In spits otf the inclement weather the theatre was fairly well filled and deserves a full house on its last presentation this evening. A comedy in which love's young dream runs afoul of the horrors of post-war rehabilitation, the vehicle was a smooth piece of writing. Not- iceaibly stiff in the first act, the cast gradually thawed out and finished up with a commendable perform- arice. Grace Diamond. as Mary and half of the lead-team, gave a good steady performance, showing just enough pettishness to bring the part to life. The other half of the lead-team, Jen-y Foster as John, carried the pme with vigor and his sense of comedy showed no little promise. lie ivas ably supported by an erst-while hero and harassed father-to-bc, Ed Garnhuim as Fred, who gave the naive performance the part. call for. Jock Lawson played the loud. self-important u.s. Senator with confidence, fitting into the part more happily as the play proceeded. Mary DeBlois as his wiife. was ex- cellently cast and her performance was better than good. Oscar, the bus-boy. was well played by Char- lie Willett. ' The high-light of the second act was Alf McKearneYs portrayal of the once uppity army lieut- enant who had been reduced to a theatre usher on civvy street. Sam Vail as tlic d0- goodlrig Red Cross worker left noili- ing to be desired in his sparkling, if ingratiating, appearance.

Earlier. spokesmen for the Gov- ernment and the official Opposi- tion disagreed sharply on the is- sue of whether the Provinces should be consulted before New- foundland is admitted to confed- oration. External Affair-a Minister" Pear- son reiterated earlier the Gov- ernment's view that consultation with the Provinces on Newfound- land is not necessary because no ctmslilutiolial change is being made. John '1'. Haclrett (PC ~ Stan- stead) took the opposite view and charged that. the Government is trying to "rape the constitution." Migratory Birds Kept In Storage The attention of sportsmen wno were sucqessful in obtaining ducks or geese by legal hunting last fall is drawn to’ the requirements of Section 1O of the Migratory Bird Regulations. This section, headed “Possession in Close Sea- son," zoverns the ‘time limit for keeping legally-killed birds after the end of the open season. The limit varies in different parts of the country. In Prince Edward Island, it is illegal to have migratory game birds in one's possession (whether in one‘: own home, in a cold- storage locker, or elscvilicre) after January 31. 1949. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who are charged with en- forcement of the Migratory Bird Regulations. are empowered to ex- amine cold storage lockers in which they suspect that migratory game birds are tinlawfully kept and to seize- migratory birds found in these lockers after the expirat- ion of tlic time. limit. for possess- ioii‘. Owners of sutti birds are liable to prnaeciitioii. During 1948 a number of IO(‘I\1€l'-ii\\'I1€1'S through- out Canada. iverc prosecuted ftp illegal possession and Iilblhltlll fines were imposed. Ln many of these cases the own- era of the birds claimed that they had forgotten that they still had some of their bag of ducks and goose- in cnid storage. '1T:e realizat- ion that they liad broken the law appeared to come as an unpleas- ant surprise to nearly all of the locker-owners prosecuted. Sportsmen who put any of their waterfowl into cold storage last. fail will therefore be well advised to check up on the contents of their lockers, and to make sure that any wild ducks or geese laava fulfilled their destiny by way of the oven and the table. Discusses lI.S. Senate Views 0n Atlantic Pact ifkiiici“. note: This column in presented as an indication of American opinion on IIIKJOTWVOEICI eveu'.<.l ' By .T. M. Roberts, Jr. Associated Press News Analyst 'l‘iici'c appears to be some lecliiiiz in the United States Sen- ale that the State Department wants to no too far in committing the United States to war if the Western Allies are attacked. The Sfiiitc Department is re- ported to feel that it is ably pro- tcctiug the United States‘ inde- pendence of decision under the proposed Atlantic pact, and that any important utaterlitg down of its contemplated wording will rob it of effectiveness. in this the Department in join- ed by the Etiropean press, although the debate involving Senators Forest Donnell. Tom Connolly and Arthur Vanden-berg would seem. to one who has not seen i-iic ivordiiiiz of the pact, to have been largely,’ hypothetical. I1 effect, Donnell asked if the pact would contain a "moral" ob- ligation for an automatic declara- lion of wiac. which he said would be ,i'u.si as bli-idlng upcm Congress as a legal obligation. Vandenbete and Cortnaily said they didn't think so and on questioning said they would not approve if it did. This produced "Senate Bans War Pledge" headlines abroad. and expressions of fear that the United Slates did not intend to iiialie a really effective pact. here does seem to be some difference between the State De- pariment and the Senate over the wording of the pact. But both tides di-vlaim any difference over objectives. Two objectives must. proachcd simultaneously: i. To get a pact which will ti-iliy represent the determination of tlic United States to react. tiniclily aetizust any aggression iii Europe. 1.‘.
