P., for ;' St. David‘s, Toronto, has entered the fray over 3 the B.N.A.- Act‘, according to the Mail and Empire, In a. letterto the press he contends that the Act is not our constitution-that it is only f a part thereof. “Our constitution is really just the same as that of Great Britain, as elastic as ". undefined, and all that the B. N. A. Act does is _' to divide certain fields of legislative authority 5 between nine provincial legislatures and that of ‘ ' the Dominion. Each of these Legislatures, as 1 regards the subjects which the B. N. A. Act assigns to it, and ivithin the geographical limits , of its province. is a sovereign body, in a self- governing British province, and the authority of l its Parliament is (to use the words of the Privy Council) as plenary and ample as that of Ottawa , or \\'estminster itself." y Accrding to Mr. IIEIGXIINGTON, as the Privy .Council has repeatedly held (though the man i on the street seldom appreciates the point) the Provincial Legislatures are in no sense, subsid- iary to the Dominion Legislature. They are not . creatures of the Dominion Parliament-—they owe {tiothiitg to it and derive no authority from it. There is nothing derivative or delegated about _ the authority of a Provincial House. Each pro- lvincial legislature, within the subjects assigned 3 to it and within its boundaries, is as sovereign a T body as the Mother of Parliaments itself- With- : in its subjects the Dominion Parliament is the ‘- same. "Herein lies the secret of success in Con- t‘ federation. The Attorney-General for New I Brunswick is quite right when he says that if the I provinces are simply to become creatures of the Dominion Parliament the whole foundation of Confederation will be destroyed, the provinces will be no longer self-governing British provinces ; and the "basis upon which the various colonies 5 were persuaded to submit to Confederation will wholly and finally disappear." Canada with the consent of .the provinces can certainly obtain all the amendments it re- , quires at Westminster by making its desires '5 known to the Imperial Parliament as heretofore. But our Premier would hand us over to the tender mercies of the Federal Parliament, which in no more sovereign than our own Legislature. 44-. v I ‘Today's Civic Contest ‘z The Mayoralty contest in today's civic elec- 1 tion is a straight fight between two candidates 1. who have held office as Councillors, and whose records are before the public. In their election t cards theyVboth emphasize the importance of a " "balanced civic budget, and of dealing with other ~ problems, notably unemployment relief and el- ectric light rates. It is essential that the franchise be exercised conscientiously, with a view to civic . rather than personal interests, and that the vote l. -be large and representative. The same applies, of course, to the contest in Wards Two, Four ' and Five for the Council seats- The cards of the candidates have appeared in the press. and their respective claims are being placed fairly and squarely before the public. In wishing good luck and a “safe landing” l ' to all participating in the contest we may also commend, quite sincerely, their interest and con- cern in civic affairs, which had induced them to come forward at this time for the privilege of [Qmdischarging onerous and often thankless duties ..;.involving the expenditure of a great deal of time and energy. A practical way of showing public ' appreciation of this fact is to see that the fran- chise is exercised to the fullest legitimate extent. Search For John Kipling In the English newspapers reports relating ito the death of King Gnome, and of RUDYARD ~' KIPLING, appear many intimate and touching stories which somehow did not find their way out here. And of these there is none more re- vealing than the stoy of Jenn KIPLING. Joan KIPLING was reported missing, and IIUDYARD, his father, visited in hospital Ionics closest friend. The friend had served as a broth- er oflicer with 101m in the Irish Guards, and was wounded in the same sector around Loos. R. K. was outwardly calm, but inwardly shattered. , _ They decided to try to establish beyond doubt if JonN were dead or a prisoner of war._ So they wrote to a. fellow oflicer, who was Still m the jgsame sector, asking him to see what could be done. Weeks passed before a reply came. Every "avenue had been explored, but no trace had been found. The third member of the trio, though still in France, could do no more than they.

The horse in war-fare is fast disappearing. Recent decisions have been taken by Great Bri- tain concerning the modernization of infantry. Complete mechanization of its first-line trans- port is involved, horse-limbers being superseded by fifteen-hundred-weight trucks with oversize tires or armored carriers, while officers’ chargers are being replaced by light autos or autocycles. This mechanization will be accompanied by re-. organization. Rifle battalions will have a light machine gun to each section of seven men. There will then be fifty-two light machine guns in each battalion, in addition to a platoon of four mech- anized trench mortars. Machine-gun battalions, however, will have two companies with a total of thirty-two guns instead of three companies with thirty-six guns, as tried experimentally. An anti-tank company, instead of being composed of four platoons, each of four guns, will consist of three platoons. ~ l 9K$i5¥ Everybody with g civic‘ vote should register ‘Ditto! i; getting unpopular as Hmss in critteidinb tit, policies of the Bitmulfr otters unappeal- In Budapest, Hungary, an extreme example of the adulation of British royalty is displayed. In a large museum case in the hall of the Gclbert Hotel are exhibited a black swimming suit and a many-colored hath robe_ Beneath these is a sign reading: “Property of His Majesty, King EDWARD VIII of England, left in the City of Budapesfs safe custody." Curious crowds gaze reverently at these relics of the visit of the King, then the Prince of Wales, last year. After a tur- kish bath at the hotel, the prince was urged to visit the swimming pool and received a new bath- ing suit and bath robe. On leaving he was invited to take them with him but he laughingly replied: “Thanks. You can keep them for me until my next visit." Budapest takes such things seriously so the key to the museum ease was deposited with the Mayor. He will restore it only to some one authorized to place these garments in the hands of their royal owner~ iii 3K it In Alberta the recall principle in politics is being attempted to be put in force. Mr. J. W. BEAUDRY, member of the legislature for St. Paul constituency is being made the first victim of recall efforts by a group of his constituents who charge the member with being a "Non-Social Creditcr." A statement issued by Mr: E. MAL- LORY, president of the St. Paul group alleges the member never came to meetings of the group to learn or to teach (Social Credit principles) be- fore he was candidate," and that after the elec- tion he was “dragged to a few meetings." It added “efforts to make a Social Crediter of him have been in vain." A bill under which any con- stituency in Alberta could “recal1" its elected member, ousting him from his seat and cancel- ling his election by vole in the same way it had elected him is one of the chief pieces of legisla- tion which Premier Anmumnr is to introduce in the coming session, and evidently the fig, Paulites are taking time by the forelock. p511.‘ an are an ‘vs- With old loans totalling millions maturing this month and next, the Western Provinces are looking once more to Ottawa for direct finan- cial aid or guarantees for new issues.
