At 10:30 this morning the Court of Appeal in Equity heard the con- tinuance of the argument on the Report of the" Church Commission. The first case presented was thfli of Alberton, by Mr. Thane A. Campbell, who in the course of his argument said that in this coin- munity there bad been a former Methodist Church and parsonage and a former Presbyterian Church and manse. The commission allocat- ed the Methodist Church and Pres- ibyterian Manse to the non-concur- ring group. The United ‘Church con- gregation had oifered to the Metho- dist Church but wished to retain the site as the present-location of to an annuity equal to two thirds of his salary at the time of retiring. The only feature of interest in connection with this was the sug- gestion that the principle should apply to old age pensions general- ly. if its had been contended in parliament that a man who should 'by thrift make provision for old nge why should a judge who got $12,000 n year not be placed on the same basis as the man who earns fifty or seventy-five cents an hour. The outstanding thing in con- nection with the debate on Woods- the former Presbyterian Church was not. reasonably convenient, whereas the non-concurring group bad already purchased a highly suitable lot to ‘ which they could move the Methodist Church. The Commission ordered that if the United ‘Church congregation wished to retain the Methodist site they should pay the cost of moving and relocating. the former Methodist Church, Mr. Campbell contended that the Commission had no jurisdiction to make an order requiring the pay- Home Secretary In- troduoed R o y a I Titles Bill in House of Commons.

This is the tlrird time in the last fifty years that the British ruled has changed his title. Qheen Vic- toria added ‘Empress of India" to the royal seal in 1M0 and Edward “King of the Domviuions-Beyond the Seas", in 1901.

The Commission was limited in its jurisdiction to consideration of conditions arising from the opera- tion of the United Church of Canada Act. Schedule A of the Dominion Act of Jncorporation guaranteed to the congregations entering the United Church the right to continue their congregational entity and org- anisation. Section Ill of the Pro- vincial Act declared that property formerly held for the congregation of one of the negotiating churches should continue, after Union, to be held for that‘. same congregation as a part of the United Church. The combined result of these two statutes was that after the consum- mation of church union there were in the community or Alberton two separate congregations of the Unit- ed Church of Canada, who were en- titled to retain their separate con- gregational organizoiion and to re- tain their separate congregational property. If therefore two congregations had chosen to remain separate there would ‘be no property in Al- berton available to be offered or al- located to the minority group. It was only by a voluntary union be- tween thess two separate congrega- tions that the Methodist Church was made available to lbe offered. That local Union was consum- mated on the following basis:- The onlly way in which the com- bined Unltod Church Congregations oould ‘be provided with a reason- able place of worship was to retain the Methodist site, move the larger Presbyterian ‘Church from its pres- ent unsuitable location and repair ‘the Presbyterian Church so that it might he properly heated and rend- ered more comfortable. The Metho- dists of Albertcn had agreed to give up the Church on condition that the equitable value of the Presbyter- ill manse, worth about $1200. should be applied to the moving and necessary renovation or the Pfiiliiylerian Church. The allocation of the (Presbyter- ian Manse to the non-concurring smllnwould impose s. heavy finan- flslburdeu on the United Church "lilflsetion and would be espec- Illl! inequitable to the former Methodists who had given up their church on the distinct understand- ing mentioned, - ‘Mr. Hector Melange, If. 0-. ‘taught ‘forward tho Kensington e. » ‘ ‘ n_ . _ . . ,. - ~ Jn opening the argument for the rolpolldanis in the Remington use Mn- pointed-out them: too-ins one ofjtiis ,‘ {i- made and a special commission is appointed to look after the treas- ure.

We will endeavor to represent the feeling of our province that the success of ways will be dependent upon the recognition of a national unity which shall not permit the upbuild- lng of any portion at the expense of others and upon the continued recognition of thmprinciples under- lying the origin compact. 1 trust the dominion may become greater as the years go on, but nev- er so great as to for et that it was formed by the consent of all the provinces and that its constitution cannot be changed except by their universal consen‘.
