SUMMERSIIJE, August 18.-'i`lie
annual meeting of the Maritime Board Of '1`l‘H<l0 011611011 iiere this morning. Various causes conspired to make the attendance at the opening session smaller than had beenlioped for. The delegates from Amherst did not come owing to the lamented death of Mayor J. H. Douglas. wiio had been an active and useful member of the Board. The Sackville delegates, who had arranged to come by motor boat, were prevented from coming by the storm. A number of the delegates from the western part of the province did not arrive until the afternoon. The following were in attendance at the morning sessionz- Messrs E. 'l‘. Higgs, President; E. H. Boer, secretary Charlottetown Board of Trade; J. A. Webster, Judge Stew- art, Nelson Ratteiibury. J. I-l. Messer- vey, D. A. McKinnon and Theodore Ross, Charlottetown; (ttiptuin Read,

We recognise that this war is for humanity and tiiat the destinies of the world are at stake. It is ii. war in which we nil must share and do our part that it may be drawn to a successful close. We all cannot go to the front, but those who have are depending on those who still remain at home to keep up the necessary supply of men ami material.

To the members of the Maritime
Board of Trade. Gentlemen.--At this. 0\ll' iwenllelh
convention it becomes my duty U’ present the l’rcsldcnt’s Report for the past two years.
it is now two years since the Mari-
time Board of Trade last met in con- vention, iis it was deemed advisable to postpone the meeting that WM ¢° be hold last year on account of War conditions prevailing at the time, which necessitated tho closest atten- tion of merchants to their business.
This great war which has ciinfiiivd
tho course of the world's trade. bag now been in progress over n year an it is no use min! to Dl‘°PIi°'7 " °'; it will sto But victorv t Gro!
i
dustry brought about by the wiir and’
orders that have been placed here. Let quality be the aim of our manu- facturers and thus prove their work- niitnship, and when the war is over much trade that forineriy went to Ger- many can bc diverted to Canada and the Maritime Provinces.
The past two years have been lm-
portant oiies to the Maritime Pro- vinces. Many conditions tliroiigiioiit the world resulted in a very unsettled money market so that fliiancial-~liouscs exercised much caution iii the financ- ing of new enterprises or extending old ones, which helped to cause a great industrial depression through thc world. But as citizens of the Mari- time Provinces we should feel proud that the financial stringency was less acute here than iii other parts, ol’ (laiiailii, especially was this true of l‘rincc Fldwarii lsliiiid, whore coiidi- tioiis were prosperous and hopeful.
'l`iic dcvclopinciii of thc Maritime
Provinces is steady and sure. They are not boom centres, so are not sub- ject to the periods of sharp reaction that happens where development is too rapid.
It is pleasing to nie to see so many
questions that have been agitated by this lloard brought to ii successful issue since our last annual meeting.
With the greatly improved tele-
graph service between l’.E.l. and the niaiiiiitnd and the latest boon in the form of the telephone cable across the Straits, thus uniting the Maritime Provinces more closely than ever, the use of this cable is free, only -the land line rates being chiirgctl. also the rodiicilon in cable rates between (lrciit ilritniii and Canada.
Another question that this Board
strongly iitlvocateil was, better trade relations with the West india Islands and since we last met the Dominion government entered into a contract with the Royal Mail Steam Packet (lo., providing ii much improved service from St John and Halifax to the West indics. The Dominion government niso iiiriugiiriited the (luiieidiaii Parcels Post System, thus bringing producer and consumer together.
Liiinberliig. fishing, mining and agri-
culture are prospering and, after all, these are our staple und sure liidiis- tries, which suppy t.lie necessities of life that are always in demand.
The Doiiiliiioii Government lias
established a Fisheries intelligence ilureuu, with the object of bringing before the flsliermen the best means of curing und packing fish, and are encouraging the shipping of fresh fish inland by paying a proportion of the express charges.
The high cost of living is caused
largely by the growth of the cities at the expense oi' the country; the rush from the farm to the cities means less food producers; the problem is how to induce more people to get back to the hind, which would not only lessen the cost of living, but improve the virility of the nation. then with the practice of thrift, real prosperity will set in and the country should develop on a sound basis. We must have thrift among the masses.
it is pleasing to know that the big
cari ferry steamer that is to ply be- tween P.E. Island and the mainland is now in Maritime waters mid is ex- pected to open up the service this fall. This is another link that will bind the Maritime Provinces together.
With the car ferry between P. E.
island and the mainland. the extensive harbour improvements at Halifax and St John, the enlargement of St Peters L-“mi oompioted, these Provinces down by the sea can face the future more cheerfully; and in the meantime while these works are under way miich benefit will be derived from the moneys put into circulation.
There is a great need of the people
of Canada being amused to the enor- niity of tho destruction that is going on each year-1 refer to the fire waste. which is the largest per capita in the world and becomes a direct tux on the people. it is caused largely by carelessness. The people who will #ef

A ststeineiit given out by the official Press Bureau says Zcppelins visited the eastern counties last night and dropped bombs. Anti- alr craft guns were in action and it is believed one Zeppelin was hit. Air patrols were active but owing to difficulty with utmosplieric conditions the Zeppeiins were able to escape. Some houses and -other buildings, ln- ciuding a Church were damaged. Seven men, two women and one child were killed, 15 men, 18 women and 3 children were injured, all civilians.

SUMMARY OF WAR SITUATION ‘
(Special to the Guardian.)
LONDON, Aug. 18.-Kovno. one of
the crucial points in the Russian dc- fensive in the north, was captured by the Germans last night, and the road to Vilna, Warsaw and Petrograd rail- wiiy is now open to the troops of Emperor William. The capture of the fortress is another triumph for the German 16-inch guns which throughout the present war have been brought against fortifications they were un- |abie to subdue. With the fortress of Kovno the Germans have taken over 400 guns and an enormous quantity of war material. This is not the most. serious part of the matter to the Rus- sians. Besides openlng the way to Vilna, which is an open town from which most of the inhabitants de- ported everything of use to the in- vaders, the fall of the fortress removes the last protection, with the exception of the Russian field army, to the main line of railway to the capital and also places the Germans in a position to threaten the flanks of the Russian army retiring to the Brest Litovsk line and those operating in southern Courland. Grand Duke Nicholas ap- parently expected tlie fall of Kovno, for his armies were liiistening in re- tirement. The hold their own from Kovno to the south, but farther south they are being pressed from the north- east by Geiierais Von Sclielz and Von Galliwitz. and fi'oni the west by Arch- duke Leopold, who crossed the Bug River. It is the same in the south, where General Von Mackcnzen finally succeeded in driving the Muscovites to their outer positions of the fortress of Brest Litovsk. For the first time since his retirement from Western Galicia in May Grand Duke Nicholas finds part of his army iii, serious danger of enveio ment. Militar

SIR GEORGE
A large and enthusiastic iniiliciice
greeted Sir George E. Foster last even- ing iii the Market: I-lall, Sumnicrsldc, when he delivered a really excellent address on condltioiis arising from the war. Sir George is an orator-aiid from the begiiiiiing to the end of his magnificent address hc held the closest attention of the large aiulience. lie divided his discourse largely into three parts, addressing himself first of all to the Board of Trade in particular, dealing with the development of com- merce anrl its indispensability to the progress of tho world, then going on to speak of the wur and its effect on trade and commerce, and lastly, Canada's part in the war. After ii few introductory remarks. in which Sir George expressed regret that they had not called upon the Hon. John Mc- Lean, who was present, and whom he knew well, and who he knew too could have dealt ably with local conditions. the speaker proceeded. The gentle- men of the Board of Trade, he said, who were carrying on a two days' dis- cussion, were gentlemen of practical experieiice, wiio came from different portions of the Maritime Provinces. out of the field of operations, and knew their own business, who understood the conimerciiil questions. ami it was iiiiiiecessary for him to attempt to go liito the minutiae of business and trade. lie lind always found it a good thing for the individual in trade or profession to corelate himself with other businesses and other people than himself. He did not think a. man did his best ln his profession, nor that on lndustry did its best in the prose- cution of its work if it isolated itself from all that surrounded it, and looked mainly and chiefly to its own interests. The lesson which they should all learn, but which many of them were slow to learn, is that they are an inter- dependent cominiiiiity, and an inter- dependent nation, and that as no man liveth unto himself, so no trade. in- dustry or profession can live to itself. and do its best. lt is always strength to a msn if he is following s. certain line of life to find out what is back ot him, what is around hini, so that he can better face what is ahead of him. These men dn the best work in the world, and those nations best in national life, which take account of the bases upon which they have grown, and upon which they are to proceed, and each take account as well of the factors which surround
SUMMERSID
cause it is best for thc world's work that it should be orgiiiiiscd, and which is iiecessary to the world's work. Members of thc iloard of Trade (lon- stitute, in the first place, a selfish body, looking after the interests of a particular section of commercial development, but tlie_iiiglier plane on which they should and do move is that they perform a great public service. without which the community would not get along as wetl as it does, and that element of the public service is uplifting in the matter of trade and COIl1i`l'lCT`(€i`¢.
The speaker then went ont to deal
with the development of tradc and commerce from the time of primitive man through the wood, stone and iron ages, up to the present twentieth century, with its complicated and 'mighty tools and engines of civilisa- tion. liow small this world would be in every sense, material and otherwise. lf man's needs were met by the pro- duct aiongside of himself. if one small country were nble to supply its needs without application ot any other out- side itseif, but the good Lord knew what lie was about when He made the world of different climates and different zones, iiavliig different pro- ducts, and it is in order to satisfy tho deiniinds, needs and wants of the worid that coinmerce has attained its present stupeiidous proportions. lie deiilt with the subject of transport. from the liunian pack horse, the boot propelled by winds. 11D to the present leviathan of the sea. He said that the boys and girls oi' to-day occupy them- selves to an iinnecesaary extent with the perusal of romance and suchllke literature. l-le thought there was no story ever imagined :nat could equal in grandeur the story that could be painted hy the artist adequate to the task of thc great development of trade and commerce which the world has witnessed from earliest times up to the present day.
The speaker then went on to speak
of the war. In the first place, hs said that some people would say that war was the promoter of commerce. and he had a man argue with him on the subjcrt. but his view was differ- ent. Ho bciicved that war was tho born enemy of commerce and could never he anything else. Commerce tlourlshcs when there is peace and 'security. Commerce dwindlcs when therc is war and insecurity, and this
them. We hear n great deal to-day, he said. of public services, and in these times of war and sacrifice it is upon
our hearts. Members of the Board of Trade, who think of themselves as
i
part. of a great world system which has
all our tongues. and ought to bc in ail-
a history and which is organised bc-
war to-day, the greatest in history. creates the cataclyem of business and trade, and why should it not? This war is so wide it gathers in so many nations. Ho went on to prove con- clusively and in an incontroveriible
as history had proved, and the present war, above all others, was justifiable in the extreme. llritain had to cngugo in it to uphold her honour and trudi- tions. Ile then went on to show the seriousness of the war to Germany in the matter of trade and commerce. All their ships had been driven from the seas and with thc exception of an accident here and there, the ships of the Allies plnuglied the seven seas with almost the same frceileni as they did before the 1st of. August, 1014. Germany had lost her colonial posses- sions and had to depend for her main- tenance entirely witliiii her borders. lie said that while it would cost ai great deal of sacrifice, Britain had to conquer, and in the emi Gerniziny would be cut off from commercial ex- istence by the Allies, and would have to repair the shattered machinery of her natioiiai life, while she would be a comparatively weak nation. Sir George then went on to speak of the part (Tannda is playing in the war. in the first plnce Cniiadu must take advaiifage of whatever opportunities she has in iniikiiig supplies that are needed for the conduct of the war. Nearly 400,000,000 dollars of war sup- plies have come to (`anadian manu- facturers from Great Britain und the Allied niitioiis. This is u ti'einciid- ously huge sum. but it is only n frac- tion of all that Caiinda in norninl tinies could produce. Another thing. t‘nnii- dlaiis should do is to supply them- selves to the last possible dollar out of what they raise and make in Canada.-to supply themselves to the last possible dollar with all their needs that are at all possible to be supplied out of what can be grown and manu- factured ln Canada. This adds to the employment and diminishes non- employmont by keeping the balance of trade where it ought to bo kept. in our favour.
The speaker then went on to insist
on economy. We have to rely. he said, on our own earnings and savings. and every man in this war, and every woman should make a savings bank of himscif or herself, and spend on nothing but what is absolutely ncccs- siiry. We niust always lcnrn to forego present advantages for the futiirc and greater good. That is what differen- tiates between man and the brute kind. And so his message to them was to tell thcm to inake everything in Canada that they necrlod. and to import as little luxury as possible.
At the close of tho address his
Worship Mayor Siiuiiders moved in fitting terms ii vote of thanks to the distinguished speaker, khich was seconded hy Judge Stewart and pre- sented by the chairman, Mr E. T.
