MOMENTOUS ISSUE

'Ins vote on the Marketins Bill lu

Parliament, as stated in the news columns, has been postponed until today. Two more supporters of the bill have como forward, one of them a Liberal representative from British Columbia, the other Mr. Henri Bou- nms, former Nationalist leader and now an Independent.

Great interest has centred on the

discussion of this important legisla- tion. As Hon. Mr. Motherwell, ex- Minister in the Mackenzie King Government, stated, it has been in- troduced at the request of the farm- ers and producers throughout Can- ada, and naturally all our farmers will follow closely the record of the vote, for and against the measure. There is no doubt as to the stand which our Conservative member:

A NE W HISTORY

A contribution of much value to

students of Canadian legislative his- tory has appeared in the shape of a volume entitled “The Maritimes and Canada Before Confederation," by William Menzies Whitela/w, A_M., P‘h.D., assistant professor of History at McGill University. The aim of the author, as indicated in an ap- preciative foreword by Rt. Hon. R. L. Borden, has been to present a dis- passionate and detailed study of Maritime contacts in their earlier phases. and of their contacts with the old province of Canada, This and more has been achieved in a work which obviously emailed years vt painstaking study and research, and with a clarity of style and mas- tery in a.rra.nge_ment of subject mat- ter unsurpwed in any work of its kind. All who have studied the kaleidoscope of pre-Confederation P0litios must be impressed with the difficulty of arranging its confused records into any sort of coherent narrative. Here we have the frag- ments gleaned from all sources -- from manLr§_<_;r-ipts, state documents, newspaper files, individuel bio- graphies, contemporary writings and later monographs .8-nd arttcles-fit- ted together with consummate skill, so as to shed light upon each other, and presenting as rounded and com- plete a picture, probably, as it is

pomible at this date to obtain.

In several passages the author em-

phasizes the paucity of authentic focords with regard especially to the Charlottetown Conference of Sept. 1864. Oontradictory accounts have been Elven of its official actions, and much futile discussion has tok- en Place as to the "understanding" there arrived at. The presstwas ex- eluded from the meetings, and the delegates were referred to as "plot- ten working in the dark." More, certainly, is known of the subsequent Quebec Conference; but in that ease also important decisions as to what course the union movement lhould take subsequent to the con- ference were not recorded; and of the proceedings of the conference itself we have only the barest out- line. This is accounted for, accord- ing to Professor Whitelaw, by the fact that the confederation Fathers were practical men intent on the plan for a new political structure, and in the days following the con- ferences were too much engrossed in laying the new foundation to tum back in reminiscence on the incep- tion of the plan. Three of these participants with distinct literary ability might have been expected to aet down the story of these momen- tous days, when their active political life was over, and two of them are known to have had such Intentions; but of the three McGee and Brown were shot, and Whelan died tragic- ally almost before the union was ac-

eomplished.

It is amusing to note that another

event took place in Charlottetown during the Conference of 1864 which apparently bulked larger in public inter-mt. This was the visitation of s clrcusl It seems that the Nova Sootian delegation, which reached Charlottetown on the "Heather Bell” on the afternoon of Aug. 31, "were not officially met on landing, but made their way as best they could to the Pavillion. The Prince Edward Island govemment later justified it.- Ialf in this seemingly discolnteous neglect by claiming that the Nova Sootisns had arrived unexpectedly early. Several opposition papers, however, charged the members of the government with having been at ins circus when the delegates :mv- ad, md the charge was not effective-

them 'with all the dignity be oould.' As tha only staunch advocate of Maritime union it was perhaps fit- ting that hc should meet this unof- ficial Canadian deputatiou to an of- ,fioial conference on Maritime union. The Cans/diana, or such of them as could bs accommodated, were direc- ted to the liiranklin. The others re- mained aboard their ship. Hen too the Prince Edward Island govern- ment explsined their inability to find accommodations for all the Csnadiansasduetothefactt-hats larger number had come from Can- ada than had been expected The truth seemed who that the city was full of Islanden who had polned. in from thc country to see, not the Conference, but the circus."

The author notes that at the sub-

sequent conference in Quebec, “as before and as after, Prince Edward Island failed to receive that pater- nal aid which it might reasonably have expected from Nova Scotia, or any fraternal assinancc from New Brunswick. It had to fight its bat-

egates at Quebec came to be strik inlaly like the temper of the Island as a. whole in the months and years that followed."

It would be impossible within the

space limit of this notice, to review even the many references to Prince Edward Island which appear in Dr Wh.itelaw's narrative. Some of them are scarcely complimentary, as for example the insistence on the insul ar-ity of the pre-Confederation Is- landers' viewpoint; but on the whole they fairly represent the special dif- ficulties oonfronting our Island statesmen, and the reasons for their reluctance in aoceding to the orig- inal terms of Union.

of Confederation to a head. (and

Maritime sentiment and conditions), the author shows his sympathy and

Confederation discussions on this subject, Prince Edward' Island, he points out, was either ignored or touched upon lightly. In the Island, annexation to one or the other of the mainland provinces had never seemed far from the range of pos- sibility. It might have seemed that the coming of responsible govern- ment would have removed the ap- prehension; but the new system had not worked well. The land system added bitterness to party strife, and instability to party government. The attitude of the Island pres, on the whole, "was what one might have expected toward s movement that threatened to extinguish the Island’s veryexistenceasaprovineeoftlre Empim..

"It is difficult." says the author in

another place, "to read the debates in the Island legislature in 1864 without realizing that so far as that Island was concerned, the project was doomed before the (Charlotte- town) conference was ever convok- ed. New conditions might, of course, arise to give urgency and strength to the Maritime union movement on the Island, but conditioned and sep- af-ated as it was, it was less likely than any other part of British North America to be driven into such a self~e£faolng movement either by convulsions from within or terrors from without. Two baits were pre- sented to the Island. but neither ex- ercised much drawing power. One was that the Island could, in the union, have the full value and use of the mainland railways which had been built at such staggering cost by the two mainland provinces, without being required to pay anything in taxes toward construction or upkeep. The second was the purchase by the united province of the rights of the landed Pfvprietors of the Island. In answertnthefirstitwasarguedin the Island legislature that even without the union Islanders could not be excluded from using the mainland railways; and with regard to the second few were brave enough openly to suggest that the Island colony should thus sell its birth-

right for a mess of pottege."

Commenting on the attempts sub-

sequently made to revive this dc- funct issuo, Dr. Whitelaw says: "I’he attempt to seclno rights for the Maritime Provinces has seldom in- duced them to act together, rarely hasitlsdthemtoadvoatcapo- litical union among themselves either within or without the Domin- ion. Even the threat of aecmion which has tended to coma with re- current hand times hasseldom been realistic enough to involve its es- sential corollary,-Maritime ruiion. That latter has been left for orstions and editorials. It has ceased to be a. movement and has become again, ss at the first, a dream.” The work concludes with the prediction that if Maritime union is ever achieved, it will be "hardly apart from the com- pelling force of a great catastrophe

unpleasant to contemplate."

RISE IN PRICES

tion,

Granting that n rise in commod-

ity prices is highly to be desired. the record of the past year has been distinctly favorable. As Hon. E. N. Rhodes poinwd out in his budget speech, from February, 1983, to Feb- ruary of this year the general ln- dex of wholesale prices in Canada rose by 13.4 per cent. This rise has been more rapid than in most other countries. In England wholesale prices have risen by 9.2 per cent.. according to the figures compiled by the Financial Times of london. As an indication of the extent to

which the rnaladjustments between various price groups have been corrected in Canada, while the wholesale price index was rising 13.4 per cent.. the index for fvtm prices rose by no less than 94.9 per cent. The prices of raw and partly manufactured articles show- ed a rise of 23,8 per cent., as com- pared with one of 11.4 per cent. for fully and chiefly manufactured commodities. It should be noted also that the price of No. 1 North- ern wheat at Fort. William averag- ed 43.2 per cent. higher in Iiiebnx- ary this year than in February, 1933, while the eorresonding in- crease for cattle (steers, good, 1,000 to 1,200 lbs. was 45.7 per cent, and for bacon hogs at Toronto, 153.8

I think I do Mr. Dunning an inius- tice by not enumerating some of the great benefits that seemed to Canada when the Liberals in 1980 put hay, straw, oats, wheat and cutflowers on the free list of im- p0rts._ Of course. Canada has not enough of these things, but must bring them in from foreign c:unt- ries! It is only right to give the credit for so profound a discovery to the Liberal statisticians of the day. It was when the farmers of this country began to see the ridiculous futility of such a. free list that the party had to look into their bag of tricks for some other scheme to fool the public.

Every one who knows anything about re- cent history is aware that in neg- Ofiltililk the Emlilre trade treaties and new trade treaties with France, Germany and austria the Bennett Government has done a great deal to extend Canadian busineasin a super-nationalist world.
