Brigadir W. W. Reid Addresses Trinity Men's Association

..A stirring appeal for more lead- ers and assistance in scouting was made by Brig. W. W. Reid at a largely attended supper meet- ing of ‘Trinity Men's Association in regular meeting last evening in Charlottetown.

Brig. Reid traced the recent history of scouting within Trinity church.

The main purpose of scouting. continued the speaker, "is to de- velop into better citizens the youths of our city. What our youngsters need most is the moral guidance and help of their parents."

The Cubs are fairly well at- tended to in leadership, but not so the Scouts. who are seriously hadicapped in this important phase of their activities.

The speaker emphaized the bene- fits acquired from this training through the ten-point development program, a close semblance of the Ten Commandments. Out of 53 scouts developed by Brig. Reid previous to the war, 49 went into the active service of their country. a. very creditable testimony to scout training.

Today, boys and girls have great- er and more problems to face than the older folk have ever had. Because of this fact. is there not a great challenge to the laymen of the Association to do what is possible by way of assistance in bringing from off the street the young people in order to provide them with a more wrolesome citizenship. ,

Brig. Reid paid a special tribute to those girls who are doing such a splendid job with the Cubs. viz-t the Misses Diamond, MacKenzle. Boswell and Stacey.

On behalf of the other members of the Association, litfr. C. H. Black moved a very sincere vote of thanks to the speaker. This motion was strongly suIIPWl-ed by Ml" E- T. Higgs, who made s. forceful plea for co-operation with Brig. Reid in his fine work.

Active Day

nv n-sitcv o-noiwzsr. ' (Canadian Press Staff Writer)

George Drew, new national lead. er of the Progressive Conservative party and a veteran of the First World War. mingled with politici- lns. army buddies and ordinary citizens in Charlottetown yester- day.

Shortly before he addressed a Public meeting. Mr. Drew visited U" Iarrison officers’ mess. There he was gently chided about the days in 1931 when as a brigade commander he won the Shang- nessey efficiency cup from a Prince Edward Island battery.

The casualness of the army mess was in sharp contrast to his other meetings.

He started off the day with a visit to the Lieutenant-Governor's. Hon. J. A. Bernard.

There the talk was cuuaLuntil Mr. Bernard mentioned that he is a first cousin of Premier Angus I... Macdonald of Nova Scotia.

"Angus ls a good friend of mine," said Mr. Drew, “we have been igiends ever since the First ivorld

'ar."

The formalities t the ill-yea:- old Government ouse concluded, IVLr. Drew stopped briefly at City Hall to sign the register and then moved on to the Provincial Legislature.

His arrival at the Legislature coincided with the noon release of children from the Queen's Square School. The children, attracted by the crowd surrounding Mr. Drew and his wife, rushed over. Said one youngster to another:

"Why, that. is Mr. Drew; do you know him?"

The other youngster said: “Sure, he's the guy who is going to beat Truman the next time.“

Enjoyed John A's Wit

Mr, Drew got practically as much kick out otf that remark as he did out of a sample of the wit of the late Sir John A. MacDonald, a father of confederation, a former head of the Conservative Party and Canada's first prime minis- ter.

In the Confederation chamber. there is on exhibit the book which iihe fathers of confederation sign- ed as they entered to open the historic meetings. ‘I‘.he registration form required the delegates to list their occupation, Sir John gave his as that of a cabinet maker. Local historians say that at the time Sir ‘John was tryinx l0 l°ml a cabinet in Upper Canada.

Mr. Drew, who as national leader of the Party has dedicated hiriieelf to the cause of provincial rights, showed great interest in

the IOU-year old Confederation Chamber. I-Is was shown through the

chamber ‘by Premier Jones, a per- sonal friend despite the difference in their political views.

At one point, Mr. Drew broke arjvay from his escort. grabbed a piece of crumpled paper from his pocket. and jotted down an in- snrlption from a tablet elected in commemoration of the confed- eration meetings.

The inscription read: "In the hearts and minds of the delegates who assembled in this room Sept. 1, 1864, was born the Dominion of Canada. ‘

"Providence being their guide they buflded better than they knew."

From tihe legislature. Mr. Drew and his wife motored back to the hotel. Then the ‘Mower-old former Ontario Premier quietly ellPPBd out with some party officials to visit local newspaper publishers.

As he arrived back at the lwtel a Rotary Club luncheon was due to get underway. Mr. Drew was invited in and the club's guest speaker was asked to save hls notes and speak on another oc- casion, Mr. Drew sptllle llflefly and stressed particularly the need for good relations between prov- inces and between communities.

Later he addressed a closed meeting of tihe Party's provincial executive. t

Meantime. Mrs. Drew. who arriv- ed here Sunday night with her husband on the first lap of a tour

of the Maritime Provinces, was en- tertalned at a tea. tendered by ll" women's section of the organizat- ion.

Mrs. Drew tried to remain in the background as her husband made his official (‘SILL At City l-Iall she signed the guest book simply as ‘Mira. George Drew, housewife.

president of the Women's Pro- gressive Conservative Association. and spoke briefly. The thanks of the meeting were extended by Mr. W. Chester S. McLure. M.P. The provincial president of the Associ- ation, Mr. Reagh Bagnall. presided. The presentation of a barrel of oysters was made to the visitors by Dr. MacMillan, who assured them that the oysters were “not only the best in Prince Edward Island, but the best in the world." Y Another pleasing feature was the presentation of a bouquet to Mrs. Drew by little Mis Daryl Jean Rogers, daughter of Maj. ‘I’. B. Rogers, who was rewarded with a

warm embrace by the smiling re- cipient.

Important Issue

“It seams particularly fitting that here in the ‘Cradle of Confederat- ion’ I should speak to you about the most important domestic prob- lem facing our people today—the building of a strong. united and efficient Federal system of govern- ment throughout Canada." Colonel Drew said in his opening remarks.

He noted that Prince Edward Is- land did not join the other Prov- inces 1n 1867. largely because adequate provision had not been made to assure effective ccm- munication with the Island. It be- came a Province under an order- in-council of June 26, 1873, which dealt with some of the special problems of the Island, and in par- ticular provided that the Dominion Government would establish and maintain "continuous and efficient communication with the mainland summer and winter."

"Every Province," he pointed out. “no matter when it joined Confed- eration. had some spécial consider- ation of particular importance within its own area in addition to the general considerations which applied to every Province. There can be no doubt about tihe obligat- ion of the Canadian Government to carry out the spirit as well as the letter of the Agreement of 1873 and that undertaking must be inter- preted in the light of changing conditions it the spirit is to be ob- served.

Accepts Responsibility

The speaker said he wished to leave no doubt whatever in the minds of his hearers that he had pledged himself. if returned as Prime Minister of Canada. "to accept the responsibility of ful- filling the spirit as well as the letter of the undertakiri! “Poll which the people of Prince Ed- ward Island Joined to make this one nation. .

"In my opinion it is riot suffici- ent that we simply carry that obligation back to the days when other means of transport were known; it. must be interpreted as an undertaking to Give modern and efficient communication at all tjmgs, in keeping with develop- ments in other parts of the country."

Col. Drew said he also wished to make it clear that the pro- posed trans-Canada highway mllil- include Prince Edward Island. l-le- ing this Province up viii-h 15119 trunk route from sea tr sea. and providing to the Island the same facilities that are available to other parts of Canada.
