pointing out. by quotations from the public accounts. certain errors might have been avoided.

The Minishr of Public Works, he said. was doing very good work in hi: own department. 1f the people can foot the bills, let him go to it.

The speaker- scored the Govern- ment for its failure to pay over any portion of the railway grant to in- corporated towns-as promised before the election, Possibly the plank was only put in the platform to induce this City to elect two Liberals.

With regard to the Sanatorium, speaking as a member oi the Medical profession, he hardly thought the stay o! patients in the institution would be as short as two weeks. The medcial men, he felt would co-oper- ate in every way with the Superin- tendent. The late government were’ severely to be criticized for their failure to obtain compensation from the Dominion Government for addi- tions to the Dalton Sanatorium made during war-time. He recounted the story of the failure to accept the cash settlement of $100,000.00 offered.

If it i: possible, as is said, to re- open the question, it should be done.

The Bell Government. too. had al- ways declined to vote a cent for the Red Cross Society. The Stewart gov-

sion being a benefit put on by St. . Elizabeth's Society in aid of 5t.Vin- i ccnlfs Orphanage.

iCanada Packers Ltd. Hold Maritime 5 Sales Conferences

Mr. M. G. McNeely, Local Manager’ i

l

the William Davies Company have l just returned to Charlottetown from 5 attending u. series o! important con- l ferences of the salesmen of Canada i Packers Limited held at the Lord‘ Nelson Hotel, Halifax. on April 12th and 13th.

Canada Packers Limited. which is the holding Company owning and operating The Harris Abattoir Comp- any, Limited. Gunna Limited. William Davies Company, Limited and Can- adian Packing Company, Limited, is a wholly Canadian owned Company with an extensive organization in the Muritimes. Branch Houses are hilllb. tuined atfI-Ialiiax. Saint John, Syd-i ney and Charlottetown, and there arei sixty salesmen covering the three Provinces.

This year n. new and important innovation was established by twenty- five of the Company! Executives coming East instead oi the Sales Staff going to Toronto and Montreal. The results oi this step have pYOWﬁ on important that it is definitely intended that such conferences in the future shall be held annually at Halifax. Saint John, Sydney and Charlotte- town.

Mr. J. S. MacLean, President of Canada Packers Limited. who heads the visiting party is greatly impressed with the developments that are uni ing place in the Maritimea and is making plans for his own Company to meet the industrial expulsion that is ahead of us.

The problem discussed at the con- ferences had to do chiefly with the co-ordination of the Sales Service of the four Companies which comprised Canada Packers Limited. By meant of this co-ordination Canada Paekerl Limited henceforth offer to the Marl- tiule Territories an importlnt and more frequent service that could otherwise be the case.

IAITII

The essence of faith liel in this, a

deep unse and eonvicction that in what we do, though it. were single

banded. with all man standing alone and even saying nay to it. we have God and all is universe at our back.

‘lb prenrve it as a typical old-mg- lilh villaga. the loyal Iociety of Arte

meeting which will beheld on Thurs- s

ernment gave them a grant of $2,-

iall the credit _of this work should go | ‘l to the Provincial Health Officer. The l Bed Cross Society. the Women's In- i

stitulee, the Tuberculosis Society and the Medical Profession have long been working for a Sanutorlum.

Dr. MacMillan then refuted state- ments by Government members that the Stewart Government had neglec- ted to collect arrears of taxes.

PROHIBITION

The speaker then dealt‘ with what he called "the Heart and Soul oi the ,Govemn'lent—Prohlbition." His hon. friend from Rustico (Mr. B. W. Le- Page) seemed to be the dictator in this mutter. l Dr. MucMillan wen j’ . LePage and Hon. Dr. MacNelll l in regard to their statements about jProhlbition and Government Control. The government's political principles iare stronger than their prohibition principles, he said. And the enforce-

ment was very bad. The arrests for l

i drunkenness in 1928 in Charlottetown .snd Summerslde are greater than

i they have been for years. As a re- ‘

isllf. of Prohibition, respect. for law i Ia decaying among us. I-Ie scored the lgovernmant severely, saying that the _ not h now u farce and teeming them ‘I “the biggest law breakers of the

crowd." for the act provides that.

Dr. MacMillan pointed out that the Indications were that they were bor- revving more money this year. if, in- stead of making fresh borrowings. they would take it. from where it is.

mission, it would be far better for them. That is one reason why we need an external audit. We should get it even yet.

Mr. Butler, (4th Kings) after ex- pressing the universal felling of re- lief at the happy recovery of His Moat Gracious Majesty. paid a tri- bute of respect to the memory of Marshal Foch, u also to the mem- ories ofdiatingulshed ear-members of the I-fouu who had passed away.

The speaker than voiced his plea- sure at the able way in which the Minister of Public Works had placed, in so detailed and thorough a man- ner. tho activities of his department for the put year before the public.

Referring to his district. the hon. gentleman stated that he and his colleague tried to got all they could for it. He laid that the idea that they had got more than their share of gravel was baseless, u was shown by the Public Works report, and wont on to depreciate certain fault ﬁnding as to the use of gravel in Murray ltiver, by opposition mem- bara. He want on tn explain the cl!‘- cumatanoaa of the can The Wom- an‘: Imtitutu had unbertcok to im-

had he not done so. EDUCATION

The speaker explained that. in the mutter of teachers’ salaries, he was not able b support any measure which would bring about increased taxation, the time. most inopportune.

The House took recess at 6 p. m.

EVENING SESSION

Tile House met at 8 p. m.

Hon. W. B. Butler in resuming his address reviewed the expenses in education. showing that they had in- creased from year to year. ‘Teachers’ salaries had also increased.

“So, when my hon. friends oppos- lite find fault with the way we have dealt with the Federation's demands" he said. "they are wrong."

He went on to combat the state- mcnt of the senior member of Char- lottetown. saying that. if the teach-

{ies they receive, they could not have

ioxlsted with the salaries under his |regime. He should have remedied

i Dr. Mac-Mlllun: “You‘ll that when you are premier." 1 Mr. Butler went on to say that the l teachers were receiving just as much las the government could afford to pay them. No doubt. if the subsidy is increased (he Government will pay I them a. larger salary as it had prom- ised. But he. personally, could not see his way to support salary in-' icreases for them. when such meant

remedy

‘increased taxation.

1 Mr. Butler then launched into a

idascription of the schools of his boy-

l hood days. At that time in his school

i. there were 60 pupils under one teach-

ier. "You would not ﬁnd that con-

idition today," he said. He was in

‘favor of doing all that could be done for the teachers. and for education.

iprovlded the people were not taxed thereby. l.

PROIIIBITION

“We have heard many speeches on jlrolllbition," said Mr. Butler. "My fhori. friends opposite stick to the ipolicy of Government Control. They fmay be right and they may be wrong. iThat is not for me to say; that is jior the electorate to say in July next. i1 want to tell my hon. friends that lwhen that time comes the people are igoing to have a chance to say whe- l ther they were satisﬁed with the pre- ‘sent Prohibition Act or not; whe- ither they want Government Control ;or not. I will say this. that if the people want Government Control. why, they will certainly get it. and .it will be Government Control. It will be kept u-eli under control by jthe present government, if they nsk lior that. The senior mernbcr from iCharlottetown sits and shakes his ;head. I don't know why.

At that conference the policy adop- ted by the Liberal party, the one~ they pledged themselves to stick to. was that they would stand by the prohibition act until the people had a chance to voice their sentiments‘ by u plebiscite clear of politics.

Dr. MacMlIlau: That was before you signed the pledge! (applause) ,

"We llgned no pledge to keep pro- hibition in operation. or bring in Government control. or anything like that against the wishes of the peo- ple." Mr. Butler continued. "we plumbed them faithfully that we
