Alberta Controversy To Be Heard _N_e_1_rt Week.

The Alberta newspaper facturn seeks a declaration the press bill is llllCflilSilillililllhl. ’l‘lie _Canadiaxi newspaper fucttun will have the same object and the banks’ foctum will be an attack on the credit reg- ulntion and bank taxation bill-s.

Alberta bases its claim that the powers oi the Dominion to disallow and of the lieutenant-governor to reserve have disappeared on the constitutional conventions which have affected the powers of the Imperial government to disallow Federal legislation and of the Gov- crnor General to reserve Federal bills. It points out thc two sets of powers are linked in the British North America. Art.

The Domin on. however, claims the B. N. A. Act has never been amended with respect to these pow- ers and the only power to amend it rests with tlic Imperial Parlia- ment. The powers in question are expressly provided for and statutory powers can never lapse through dis- use.

The bank and credit legislation is attacked by the Dominion on the ground it interferes with Federal control over banks. banking and currency. It is defended by Alberta. with the claim it is within the pro- vince's powers over» property and civil rights and the imposition o! diicct taxation.

Property and civil rights are also relied upon by Alberta as justifi- cation for the press bill but the Dominion claims-it infringes its jurisdiction covering criminal law, peace, order and good government and communications between prov- inces. The Alberta newspapers argue on smilar lines with an added sug- gestion the measure imfringes upon fundamental rights oi’ Canadian citizenship.

The subject of Mr. Woodsides address was “The Church and the Book" and his text Psalm 119, verse 130: "The entrance of Thy words giveth light.” He began by quoting the words of John A. Pat- ten. found in the ‘Preface to the Report of British and Foreign Bible Society for i937. "Without being pessimlsts we are all bound to admit that there are many clouds hanging over the ‘world today-clouds of war and hostility, jealousy and misunderstanding, clouds oi’ poverty and unemploy- ment, ignorance and irreliglon; and in no part of the globe is the sun shining from a clear sky. ‘Lighten our darkness. we beseech Thee. O Lord,’ is the prayer of Christian people everywhere." Mr. Woodsldo went on to sketch where trouble is to be found todaykand its nature.

The President spoke briefly on the rc- , port and stated that during his absence, and while the collection for the Society's funds was still in progress, someone had stolen some $49.00 from the P. E.
