issues: Government Control of liquor, sale of light wine and beer, orProhi- bition? My hon. friend again wants to change the two edged sword into a three cornered one. Whatever is the best vote-catcher, he wants to get it-whcther it is Prohibition. Gov- ernment Control or light wines and beer! That was the object of that meeting. and I see it is still being preached.

lion. Mr. McIntyre: I did not sug- gest to wealten the Act. I just made a suggestion for two questions in that section so as to put it to the people in a fair and honest way. the people want the privilege of vot- ing foriight ivlnes and beer they would have the chance to say so,

say whether they want Government Control or Prohibition. That would be putting three ballots before the people, to say whether they want Prohibition, light wines and beer, or Government Control. That is the only motive I had in making the suggestionrsimply to put it square, ly and fairly before the people so that there would be no comeback.

lion. Mr. LePage: Just to clear the matter up in the minds of those who have been listening to me, I may say that the inference my hon. friend from Charlottetown has given to my words was never and I don't think anybody under- stood it that way. My idea was just to give the straight questions aspro- posecl in our platform. The words may be ‘a little different but the meaning is exactly the same, only the wording now will give it very much greater effect than possibly it liad before. While my lion. friend might understand it as it was read ﬁrst, I think itwould be clearer to the average voter in this country. and that is ivliat we are all aiming at.

Hon. Mr. Butler: To my mind those qucsdons are quite important. During that campaign the Liberal Premier promised the electors nftcr a year or two to give them a chance to vote on this question. Now it says: “Are you in favor of the Prohibition Act as now enforccdTT don't see what objection there is to that. The other question says Government sale of liquor in sealed packages, and we would. not depart from that system if it came into force.

lion. Dr. Grant, I do not think there is any difference between the first queslion and the amendment, I think" in force in this Province" means the very same as “the law in this Province." If I were putting the questions in I would simply say: “Are you in favor of Prohibition, or are you in favor of Government Control?" Dr. ltiat-Millan: In reply to the good reason why his amendment should not be put in, because you remember that in all your state- ments, Mr. Promoter regarding this matter you said you would give the people a chance in 1929 to judge of the merits of your enforcement of Prohibition, and then you would ask them whether they were satisfied to retain the Prohibition Act as‘ you have enforced it or adopt Govern- merit Control. That being so, I have no fault to find with the wording as l‘. is given here in the bill. You are asking the people the qnes‘. ion which you alivays said you would ask them: "Arc ,\'ou in favor of the Prohibition Act as now enforced in this Prov- ince?" That is the question, and you are asking thcm that question on your record. But the lion. member from Rilstlco deride; that this is no: in the best interests of the 173113‘- nnd he wishes to propose an amend- ment which is entirely different. He wants to ask the people lf they want to retain the Prohibition Act as the law of this province. That is, as I said, an entirely different thing and I think the plan proposed by the Premier who is promoting the bill is the most sincere of the lot. I could not find any fault with the Minister of» Public work's for making his sug- gestion. I think it is a good one, that the people should have a chance of saying whether they want light wines and beer when they are voting. Mr. Arsenauli: Did I understand the Minister of Public Works to move an amendment. or was it just a sug- gestlon? non. Mr. Mcllliyﬂ, Just a sugges-

tion.

Mr. Arssnauit: Being a member of the Government, I think that his suggestion should be followed by

once snd for all what the people ‘want. The question not being in poli- étlcs, they will not be swsyedpne way lu- the other.

j Mr. P. A. Scully, I am inclined to Iagree with the amendment sugges- iiion. There seems to be a pretty wide ‘gulf between prohibition and Gov- ernment Control; two extremes. so ‘to speak. and it might be wise to put ‘in some happy medium.

l Hon. Mr. McIntyre, r move that ‘this clause stand over. < Hon. Dr. Grant: I do not think that it should be stood over. The Op- lposltion says that. we are departing ‘from our platform and now they want to put us in an even worse box by departing still fulther. (Laugh- l ler).

5 Hon. J. D. Stewart: I have just come in, and I am not in a position jto discuss what has been said: but I lwould like to know whether the ,‘ phrase “Government Control" has ‘been deﬁned? We must not forget lthat we are enacting a statute; we tare not discussing a platitudc or ‘making political speeches. Staiu“ {require accuracy and I would like to

“know whether there is any accepted y

meaning to the phrase “Government ‘ Control." It simply means. of course. lcontrol by the Government. But

l how? we myght say that our pm. . shal Foch was a. young man when he‘

{hibitlon system is Government Con-

ltrol to this extent that the sale of lliquor is controlled by regulations ‘lllildB under the Prohibition Act. It ‘strikes me that the phrase should be lset down with a little more accur- acy.

Hon. Mr. Butler: One of those questions covers Government Con- trol for medicinal purpwes and the other covers Government Control for beverage purposes.

Ilon. Mr. Stewart: What do you mean by Government Control for beverage purposes?

lion. Mr. LePagc: For the infor-

‘mation of the leader of the Opposi- ‘tion I might read the amendment I Hrroposed. (Mr. LePage read his‘ am- lcndment). That is as clear as any- lthing can be, and there is no way iof misunderstanding it. Now all liq- l uors are alcoholic. Under Government “ Control. . . . ‘ i Hon. Mr. Stewart: All liquors are ‘not alcoholic. Many things that are ‘defined as liquors are not alcoholic. ' Liquor is simply a liquid.

Dr. A. A. MacDonald: My hon. tfi-l-end from Rustico states that the Temperance Alliance represents the

temperance people of this Province. We repudiate that. They might part- lly represent it. but that is all. I {think the suggestion made by my

hon. friend from Egmont Bay that ‘

you stick to your platform is a good one. That is what you went to the icountry on. Why begin to weaken ‘now? There is no manliness or back- bone ln a course of that kind. You gneed not be afraid of your questions ‘being misunderstood; the pepole are not so dense as that.

Mr. 1i. ll. Cox: I think we should ‘do just as we told the people We ‘would dc. Then they will have no ‘fault with us. Just do what we pro- mised and we are all right.

lion. Mr. Stewart: You are not in favor of this amendment, then?

Mr. Cox: I am in favor of what we promised the people.

Hon. Mr. Stewart: May I ask the promoter this question: Supposing a ‘ballot containing these two questions ‘is marked with an "X" only as to the ﬁrst. and the second is left blank? How would it count?

Premier Saunders: Well, it would

,be in favor of Prohibition as the law ‘of the Province. ; lion. Mr. Stewart: Then what ls j the advantage of the second question lat all? ls it either for or against the Prohibition Act. Why put in the second question to becloud the issue. if the answer to the first question al- l one constitutes a complete answer.

Premier Saunders: The people want to know what the alternative is "'-"-"l‘!

Hon. Mr. Stewart: That does not tell them anything. You are simply getting an opinion of the people. It is a ballot: it is not s discussiomand the gist of it is: Are you in favor of the Prohibition Act or not? Why put in a second question to beclcud the minds of the people. if it is n0

value?

Premier Sound s: It is of i???“ value.

The Chairman: The motion is that the clause as amended be ad- opted.

Hon. Mr. iewsrt: That is not the motion. The motion as msde by the Minister of Public Works was that the clause be stood over.

Several members: It was not sec- onded.

lion. Mr. Stewart: It does not need to be seconded in committee.

Memorial Service

—Continued from page l- What a different scene presents it-

honour today- was then your glorious chief. Today you find yourselves "mend in the quiet of this Church to honor Marshal Foch who has passed away- the glorious leader who has gone to his eternal reward. In every age God has sent men to right the wrongs that happened here below. God has watched over them kindly, those men sent by God to right a wrong. Those are the words of my text-the words of God to Joshua.

In honoring Marshal Foch we are honouring the man who not only lo- complished great things but the memory oi the man whoee character can be held up to this and all suc- ceeding generations. In him we find the true type of patriot: in him the true ¢ype of military genius: 1n him the true type of Christian- s man 0!

the memory of Marshal Foch, Seldom

spread regret been shown. When word was sent out that he had passed away it was wonderful how the death i of that man affected the nations of the world.

Marshal Foch loved his country . France was dear to the heart of Foch. l l-ie gave the talents with which God I endowed him to protect France. Mar-

first went to war for his country and j at the time he knew his country could 1, not withstand the attack. He saw his country deprived of part of her terri-

tory. He realized God gave him tai- ents and he decided to devote those talents to his country. In time of peace Marshal Foch from a patriotic heart l devoted himself to France so that she could take tier place among the countries of the world.

When it was decided that a man was to take command of the allied forces Ferdinand Foch was chosen. We know how under his leadership the war was brought to an early and successful close.

He was a man of prayer; a man of piety. His memory will be always held dear particlfiarly to those who | served under him. How beautiful it must have-been to see a man in his position visiting that ‘little chapel where he went before the Altar ‘and poured out to God his trials and sufferings and all he had gone through and invoking Divine assist- nce. .We will always honour his memory and the patriotism that was ‘in the heart of Marshal Foch. Good ‘l will in our country is the patriotism of peace. Gathered here today before the Altar of God to offer up the Sac- rlfice of the Mass, let us not forget Marshal Foch in our prayers. In the . passing of Marshal Foch France has

be "Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and let Perpetual Light shine upon him."

| After the Mass the parade reformed and before moving off the band rend- ered the “itfarseiilaise" out of respect. to the memory of the great General.

The parade then returned w the Legion Home. proceeding along Great George Street to Richmond along Richmond to Queen; Queen to Graf- ton to their Home.

Here the men were addressed before bclng dismissed, by His Honour Heart: who complimented them upon their ap- pearance and numbers. He was pleas- cd to see such a large turn-out, each year their parades becoming larger. This, he said. was as it should be.

The National Anthem concluded , the ceremony.

PLEBISCITE

—Continued from page 1—- speech this afternoon quoted figures to show that all the provinces of Canada would have experienced a deﬁcit last year in the great majority of cases greater than that realised by Nova Scotia except in the case of P. E. Island, had it not been for the revenue derived from the sale of liq- uor under government control. At the present time Prince Edward Is- land and Nova Scotia are the only two provinces in the dominion which do not operate some system of gov- ernment control and pleblscltos are to be held in both provinces this year on the prohibition question.

The plebiscite bill introduced to- day provides that all employees may absent themselves from work be- tween the hours of noon and 3 o'- clock on the day the vote is taken without loss of wages. in order to re- cord their opinion unless other sr-.

you in favor of the Prohibition Act as now the law in this Province. or (2) sre you in favor of the sale as a beverage of alcoholic liquor under a Government Control Act.
