A_ct Deception could scarcely be carried further than the attempt in Wednesday’s Patriot to sh_ow that only Conservative newspapers are opposing the efforts now being made to scrap the B- N- A- Act as an Imperial statute. Our contemporary 'quotes the Mail and Empire as stating that the purpose behind this campaign is to destroy the cha Provinces of their treaty rights. In describing statements of this kind as emanating from “Tory organs” for the purpose of “making P°l‘f’°“l capital” it ignores the fact that similar objections have been raised, and strongly insisted on. by f-he Liberal Government of New Brunswick and bl’ the newspapers of that Province regardless of. politics. It is the Government of this Province, and its party press, that is obviously “playing politics” with this vital issue. At the con_ference to be licld next week at Ottawa it is since_rt_!lY hoped that Premier CAM1>ni-:LL will forget _politics for a while and come to the support of his _New 'Brunswick colleagues in their fight for provincial rights, which vitally affect the future status of Prince Edward Island. The importance of this issue was empha- sized recently by Mr. R. ]. HA1uuNo'r0N. President of the New Bl’\1l1SWlCl< C0U\1C1l °f Labour_ We quote his statement in part : “When one considers that no party ever came into power at Ottawa without carrying an overwhelming proportion o_f the seats in Ontario and Quebec or both, some idea of what the posi- tion of the Maritime Provinces would be_ if under the jurisdiction of a.Federa1 authority. may be arrived at. The tremendous potentialities of such apossibility, would spell absolute ruin to Maritime trade and would be capable of political exploitation far beyond the wildest dreams of even St. james or York Streets. “ In the first place, Ontario and Quebec are the centres of high finance. The heart_of its strength is in Central Canada, in Ontario and Quebec. It is there that finance, industrialism and commerce reign most obviously. It is that part of Canada that is most sheltered from inter- provincial competition by discriminative freight rates. It is that part of Canada that _is protected ifrom foreign and empire competition by the tariff blanket that is smothering the trade. com- merce and industry of the Maritime and Western Provinces. However great and strong our con- stitutional safeguards may be they cannot he _too strong, for it must be remembered that political strength lies, not in the extremities, but around the centre of entrenched financial power. . ._ . " This attempt to arrive at a broad Canadian political movement, striving _to challenge ,the existing system under the guise of _a national emergency, is nothing short of a deliberate and perfidious effort to centralize the control _of the economic destinies of all the provinces in the hands of Ontario and Quebec. Maritime people will be making a grievous error if they accept the glaring attempts of the financial press of the 'central provinces to steep them in a frenzy of lfalse nationalism which will destroy their inde- pendence and their safeguard of our Imperial 'polmectionr . . . “Iri spite of propaganda to the contrary. lil; fight, and fight it will be, will be won or 1o_st, not in Ottawa, but in the courage and integrity bf our provincial statesmen and on the floors of yur Maritime Legislatures.’f _ gbfr.

The optim- lstlc toneof this wrlte-up was such that lt caught the eye of other editors, with the result that lt was widely reprinted ln other sections of the Maritime press in order' that others might share lu the glad tidings. Among other things, the writer stated that the eel-grass (favorite food of these birds) had made u very substantial recovery at points ln Northumberland Uounty where geese and brunt were accustomed to concentrate ln the good old days and that according to n "Mr.1l-I. Harrison of Montreal," who for the past fifteen years or more had been a regular vlaltor to the fam- ous shooting areas at Tnbuslntac, there were “fully 50 per cent more geese and brunt during the fall of same period ln 1934.” This greatly lmproved condition, the wrlter went on to say, was due, not only to the increased food supply, but because “last sprlng's inlgrutlon of geese and brunt was one of the heaviest ever seen by the residents of the North Shore." These statements ure- so glaring- ly out of line with what ls known to be the true sltuutlon with regard to these birds that I immediately took steps to locate this Mr. Har- rison of Montreal ln order to se- cure from hlm, ll possible, a con- firmation, or relutatlon, of the statements he ls alleged to have made. . A letter addressed to one of the leading guides of the district con- cemed ellclted the information that no one by the name of l-I. Harrison had been is regular vlsltor to Tabuslntac ln reocnt years but that a. Mr. H. M. Morrison of Mont- treal, had been accustomed, for some years put, to vlalt his old home in that region and that he (Morrison) was un ardent wlld-fowl hunter. Because of the slmllurfty ln the naines and address, and other attending elrcuiristiinces, I felt justlfled ln assuming that this Mr. Morrison ls the -man referred to ln the newspaper report under discussion, whereupon I wrote him. I am just ln rerelpt of is reply from Mr. Morrison ln which he emphatically denies having made the above-cited comparisons and cannot understand why he should have been so quoted, adding that he felled to vlelt the Province in 1934, hence could not possibly have made same. As for the 1935 spring migration of gee;e and brant having been one of the heaviest ever seen by the North Shore residents, this state- ment ls nothing short of an absurdity. For the past four or flve years I have secured weekly reports by the questionnaire system, during both spring and fall, from 30 or more reliable men who llve at strategic points along the North shore. as well as elsewhere ln the Maritimes, and same are on flle and are available upon appllcatlon to spy- one who may wish to see them. I might add that sold reports were furnished voluntarily and most, lf not all, of those who sent them ln ure'them.se1ves guuners, who would naturally be lncllned to paint as rosy is picture us oondltlons would permit.. These reports are summar- ized at. Ottawa and charts prepar- ed therefrom, and the picture they portray ln recent years, ls alarm- ing _to .sly the least. and the spring migration nf 1935 wus certainly no exception. Furthermore, I would point out that there are men of lntematlon- 9.1 reputation who are funllfur with brunt conditions along the birds' entire Atlantic coast. range and then have no healtuncy tn stating that the Eostem Brant has reach- ed the lowest ebb ln history md they _express grave fears ls to the posalblllty of their becoming exhr- mlnsted within the present decade. That. the eel-grass ls showing some improvement at certain points ln Northumberland County le cheerful news indeed but no usur- auoc ls given by the writer, nor “ll TIG Blve any. that this new growth will not dle down main, as has happened on so many slmllnr occasions ut other points which can be cited.
