Detail; nf poyerlllltcnl policy with respect to public works and hiﬂhways, awaited by members o! both sides u! the l-louse. were disappointingly lacking tn the speech delivered Wednesday eve- ning by thr- Minister of this de- partment, lion. George H. Bar- bour, in the Draft Address den bate. Most of Mr. Barbouri speech was a rehash o! the by- electioit campaign in the Second District of Prince. spiced with taunts at Opposition prospects in the next general elCctiun.

Referring to Opposition criti- cism regarding the moving of buildings in Second Prince dur-

ing the recent campaign, Mr. Barbour said he had a letter on this subject from people in Cape‘ Wolfe. They had seen the state-

ment: in the paper. and they said 1 they did not; know anything about buildings being moved. '1he lead- er of the Opposition had prom- iced. to give lllm names in this connection anti he hoped he would do so at his leisure.‘

. Hon. Dr. MacMillan: "Tr-ll us {about the house that Coffin and I

ltiurptiy hauled seven titiles with a governanent tractor."

Mr. Barbour: “Whose house was it?"

Dr. MiWMlllétltI “I don't know whose ltntlsc. but I know “ho moved it."

m: Barbour: “Of course you don't. I don't think they hauled

any house. It might have been a fox pen."

Dr. ltincMillan: "Some of your supporters can tell you the house that was moved seven ntilcs."

Dr. MacMillan:

Mr. Barbour! "The louder oi’ the Opposition should knoll" more about. it when he mttkcs this sltttrtltvltl."

He went on position lvtltici- tlve convention as saying that. he. Mr. Bnnbntlr, hud taken all the tnnchineryi tn Prince County into the Second District. lie (lepreczttcd stutcnlents of this kind. He recalled one man hav- ing hauled a building with a gov- ernment tructor, but it was not with Mr. Burbouris authority.

Dr. Mach/Kilian: "Who wuts haul- ing the building?"

Mr. Barbour: "It was one oi’ our tractors and his name was McLure, from Second Queen's. That building was hauled by gov-

the Op- Conserva-

to quote at a

ernmcnt tractor without my authority." Dr. MacMtltlan: "The practice

is general, then?"

Mr. Barbnttr: "It was not gen- eral. but this was done wit-bout my atlthorityx I gave one man authority last sunrmt-r tr) get his lane done and that nlnn was a former Conservative member o!

Dr. biiac-Mlllitn: “How litany lttncs were done in O‘Lr\ur_y?"

M1‘. Barbour; "I don't know. OIv-tlry is not in the Second District of Prince."

Mr. Strong: “One side of the

road is in the Second District." Road Gravt-lllng

Mr. Bzlrbollt‘? "The ("Ylhiﬂﬂ is nut at Sprilteiivld." lie rclerrcti tn stattments about the amount of gruvelling dune in the Sec- ond District. Ho rejected the in- sinuntion that. the people of that

district coilld be bought in thi! manner. Dr. MaCMillan: "Will t-he hon.

‘Mr. Barbour said this was due to different conditions. Prince County had excellent gravel pits and tt was cheaper to haul short distances. In Second Prince there were seven townships. as against. nnly one lmtvnship in Fifth Prince.

Mr. Strong: "They've only snail,"

Mr. Barbbllr: "They're ships just the saline. Print-o is Lil!‘ only district with seven totivnshipa on the Island." He made nn distinction between districts. he maintained.

He quoted figures to show a tart!" "mother of children born in Prince County than in King]. Would the loader of the Opposi- tion say that the falmily allow- ances should be distributed equal- ly between the two Counties?

Dr. MacMillan: "You arc smeading the gravel in propor-

town- Second

tion to the birth oi the children. 1

are you?" (Laughter).

Mr. Banbour referred to a pre- "ious Conservative Minister oi’ Public Works “who also had dis- tributed more gravel in Prince County. He vme only following precedent in this respect. It was impossible to make an equal division because in Queen's gravel has to be hntilcd forty miles in DlRCOB, and that is very expens- ive. The best. way to handle that situation is to make wider roads, with better maintenance.

He inatanced expenditure for ferry service in Second Queens. the difficulty o! getting anyone to truck from Hope River to Bon- shaw, and expenditure in drilling and blasting at Hope River.

. Springton and other pity

Mr. Barbour went on to des- cribe a trip to Ottawa he had made with llnn. Mr. Stewart and Mr. Boulter tomcel the Prices Sup-port Board in the interests of the potato industry. He re- called that back in 1,934 they had a large aunptus oi potatoes and the price had gone du/wn to 1'1 cents a bushel,—not nearly u good as last year. He was a member of n delegation which appealed for relied to the Gov- ernment n! the day, which was headed by the then leader of the Opposition. They couldn't. find any way tn nsairt the growers at that time. Today lhinﬂl- were tiiiiﬂrent. An Ibtport Board tin been set up by thll Government under the Federal Marketing Act.

Dr. MwcMillan: “Eamt-lv!’

Mr. Barbour: "It should make us think more certainly about our own good fortune in title coun- try."

Mr. Strong: "Those condition were not in existence when you

people had the surplus you spoke of."

Mr. Barbour: “Tlhe King Gov- ernment wasn't in power then either."

Mr. Strong: "You don‘t mean

lib. Barbour thought the 0on- servatlves had made a big mis- ' take when they let Premier Muthieson become Clue! J-ustlcc. It was agood thing for the country, but they lost. the smart- est leader they had. There had never been a Conservative Pre- mier since who was able to win ltwo successive elections. Durintl i the last twenty-eight years they

had been twenty years tn Op- position.

Mr. strong: "when are you calling this election?"

Mr. Barbour: "If we go in May. June or November. wlieitever it is. you will have a battle."

Dr. Macmillan; "Lt will be n battle of gravel again."

Mr. Barbour: “It may be."

Political Karim-me

He cited Opposition criticism to the effect that the Jones Gov- ernment was "not a hulJDy fum- tly" and said there was nothing in this. He had never been treat- r-d with anything but courtesy by the Premier. He compared the election results o! recent; years wit-h horse races. 111,193!» the 0on- aervative horses started and they were all distanced; not one of them started in the second

heat. Mr. R. H. Bell: “We didn't

y have enough to bet." Mr. Barbour: "They started
