Regarding the buildings themselves there is difference of opinion regarding their ultimate dis- posal. It was the original intention of the Hospital Commission, it is understood, to retain control of the newly erected buildings and to dispose of them at the conclusion of their tenancy of Government House grounds but so far as can be ascertained there is no‘ written agreement to this effect between the Hospitals Commission and the provincial government and the latter now claims that all erections on the leased grounds becomes its property. This is a mat- ter of course for lawyers to decide, but should the government’s contention be upheld, it will have no reason t0 complain of the bargain it made with the commission.

THE SENSITIVE l'.\'l‘l{l()'l‘

The Patriot assumed indignation in its Satur- day’s issue when referring to the report in the Guard ian of the meeting of citizens held in the Board of Trade rooms the previous afternoon.

Our contemporary’s complaint was that Mr. Jas. Paton criticized the Bell Government for appointing politicians instead of ex-soldiers to certain govern- ment positions. Our contemporary alleged that iMr. Paton was not in order in introducing this matter at a meeting called to consider the closing of the Rena McLean Memorial Hospital. What are the facts? After the business for which the meeting was called was disposed off, Major McNutt introduced the question of the Dalton T- B. Sanatorium; this was disposed of by the appointment of a committee including the chairman, Mr. C. H. Chandler, to wait
