An uneasy labor situation which had prevailed for several day in a string of eight sugar estates on the east coast took s tragic turn yesterday when the four workers were killed and several injured as a police detachment fired against an attacking mob of D00.

’I‘l1e men died when their com- rades, throwing missiles, tried to force their we across a trench in- lo a guard factory building where non-striking workers were busy processing sugar cane. A po- liceman was beaten and his rifle seized and fired. At this point the police department opened fire and four workers were killed.

The shooting came in the wake of s series of minor incidents be- tween strikors and other workers in which three overseers were beaten by the dissident faction. One of the overseen is still in‘ hospital. ,

The workers are striking against the "cut and load” system of reap- ing canes and want’ the re-intro- duetien of the "cut and dtw"‘s‘y,:- tmi.

llospltal Ass’n Meeting Dontlnucs

(By The Canadian Press)

8T. ANDREWG. N.B-. June 11- No matter whet changes are made in hospitals the. emphasis must be placed on the quality of the care provided. Albert V. Whitehall of Washington said here today.

Mr. Whitehall, secretary of the Council on Government Relations and director of the Wbshingtosi Service Bureau of the American Hospital Association, spoke before the annual meeting of the Mari- time I-Iospitel Association. w

"If we in the hospital field are to fit in with our pattern of de- mocracy," he said, "we must be able to change our systems and our patterns to conform with the needs of the time.” -

Home things needed glng. More medical care was n there were not enough hospitals, doctors or nurses.

"We need to develop and en- pmd our health resources and push back the boundaries of know- ledge through continued research and. Qcientiflc exploration."

“In maintaining a high quality of care in the hospital held we must remember that the dignity of man requires treatment of the patient as a person, not as a unit or a number."

Dr. C.,J. W. Beckwith, Halifax, presented a paper outlining what a community eifpects from a hos- pital in the prevention of disease.

He said it was logical that a community with a. hospital for the treatment of disease should have facilities for the prevention of dis- ease.

Dr. J. A. Clark, Charlottetown, president of the Association, pra- sided at today's‘ sessions.

tion that the resolution be tabled, said she was not making knovrn publicly whether she was in favour of the Prohibition Act or against it. She did not think it wise, how- ever, for the Women's Institutes to take any official stand on such a controversial subject. They would be doing their duty were their members. as loyal citizens of Can- ada, to tum out on the day of the plebiscite and "vote according to their conscience."

Miss Mary G. MacDonald-fiber- lottetswn, supported Mrs. McLeod and the resolution was defeated without discussion by a show of hands.

The following resolution was then unanimously passed:

"-Whereas a. plebiscite will be held in this Province on June 28 and, whereas we have the right to esmoreas our opinions on such ques- tions through the exercise of our franchise; be it therefore ‘resolved that the wcmen of this Province not only vote themselves but also urge all othes citizens to do so, in order that the vote may represent that of the majority of the people: and, furthermore, be it resolved that whatever Act is brought into force as the result of the vote. that the Women's Institutes do all in their power to see that there will be proper enforcement of that Act."

Growth 0f Communism

The Convention, by means of a resolution, expressed its uneasiness a; the ggpld, growth of Commun- ism throughout the world and also the fear that Communism was "endeavors-lug to spread its U83)’ fangs in every Province of Can- ada." The resolution called upon the "local papers and radio stat- ions to give more information on such individuals and ‘orffllifltloflfi as are seeking to spread Com- munism and also more informat- ion on what a. Communistic form of government means in any coun- try."

Other resolutions asked (s) “that the Government revise the Health Act and enforce a periodic health eioaminationfor all food handlers"; (b) that the Department ofI-Iealth use “all means at,its disposal to have travelling dental clinics in use throughout the Province as soon as possible"; (c) that the Federated Women's Institutes oi Canada. be requested to urge the Dominion Govermznent to continue Children's Allowances to those children who, though over l6 years of age, were mentally deficient; (d) that the Provincial Govern- ment begin the construction of a dormitory for the accommodation of students attending Prince of Wales College.

Addressed Convention

Mlrs. Jillian Herring, past presi- dent of the P. E. Island Women's Institutes, gave an address on par- lzamentary procedure with particu-

lar reference to the procedure ern- _

played in the conducting of Wo- men's Institute meetings. Mrs. Herring said that common sense and courtesy form the basis of all accepted rules and regulations. To be an efficient president, one must know her members and their cap- abilities, Mrs. Herring said. She recommended the use of a good manual on the proper conducting of women's meetings. t

Mr. Allison Profit. Freetown, president of the P. If. Island Fede- raticnfiof Agriculturehapoke to the Cenvenlfcsi on citisenship with es- pecial reference to the youth of the Province. A good name, good health, education, and discipline are essentials in good citizenship, Mr. Profit said. l-le added that Christian character is fundament- ai endeanonlybefcrmedbyex~ anmle and practice.

Plebiscite Campaign

— “TI! FUTURE IIIDNGI T0 ‘I'll IOIII" i ~ -

Gin-This is a phrase I picked up lately. It comes out of the scientific» findings of the Yale s_chool of Alcoholic Studies. It is also the conclusion of the Report issued in mgland some time ego of a commission of five appointed by the Government to determine the effect of alcohol on the human body and which is uncw the basis of primary school studies in Brit- ain. Neither the Yale School nor the British Report preach total abstinence. but they say this: "One cocktail may make a man a drunkar ." For no men knows how predisposed to alcohol his ner- vcus system may be and as a matter of fact the Yale‘ School tells us that 0 per cent of drink- ers become alcoholics and a larger number become heavy drinkers. The School says in effect: “You re safer never to taste liquor." It has been discovered that in

every-mental faculty.

skilled technicians must be sober people. people, generally, are he

live longer. Co say the insurance companies and they give ‘those people easier rates.

The new Temperance Act will not produce a sober people. If it comes into force there will likely- be placed a Vendor's Store in the‘ larger villages such as Aibcrton, Kenslngton, Montague, Murray l-larlbour and ultimately, even in smaller villages for the law says, in stating the functions of the commission, (To) "To determlns the towns within which Vendors Stores shall bé established through- out the Province." This is what the profit-seeking traffic wants— no drunkenness but increased sale. And when liquor is sold at one‘s door and when it has become fash- ionable to drink what parent will be able to restrain his boy from being in the fashion?

Pmhlbition, shorn cf its laype- criticsl a endments, would pro- duce a sober people and this the people of P. E. Island can get back if they want it. but "Prohibition before the Cullen Amendment", the alternative to be voted upon, I far superior to Government sale for beverage purposes as the figures to be released shortly, will surely show. It will not be good for P. E.,Islsnd to be indifferent in the plebiscite. coming June 28th. .

The decline in the infant mor- tality rate has also been marked. Miss ‘rinkiss said. In 192d there were 102 infant deaths per every 1.000 live births as compared to 47 deaths in. i040. But '47 infant deaths per 1.000 live births is still too high, Miss Tinklss said. and there is much work to be, done be- fore the rate will be drastically reduced.
