Received.
Upwards of 100 cases under the
Farmers Creditors Ararngement Act
have been heard and are under con-
sideration by the Board of Review
in this Province, according to in-
formation zeceived from the Board
chairman.
The Board has held sessions in
the different parts of the Province
most convenient for the farmers and
their creditors.
At first it was realized that the
Act was not well understood. The
opposition came chiefly from those
who were under the impression that
the Board was contemplating cut-
ting mortgages and iniuring other
creditors for the benefit oi' the
farmer. The Board has on numerous
occasions explained that there was
no such intention, and this fact is
now generally appreciated.
The Board of Review is made up
of a chairman, one member repre-
senting the farmers, and a third
member the creditors. At present
constituted it consists of Mr. Justice
Arsenault, chairman, Mr. E. B. Mac-
Laren, Georgetown, wmenting the
farmers. and Mr. . K. Rogers,
Charlottetown, representing ‘the
creditors.
The Board has met in all cases
with the very best reception. In
very many cases the creditors them-
selves have offered to the Board a
suggestion of settement, and gener-
ally the Board has accepted these

suggestions and made proposals ac-
cordingly.
Most of the mortgages bear inter-
est at 7 per cent. The Board has
considered that this rate is alto-
gether too high in view of the state
of the money market today. The
best bonds do not realize more than
from 3 to 4 per cent interest; the
banks only pay 2 per cent interest
on deposit; and with low prices it is
impossible for the farmer to pay
such a high rate of interest. Almost
invariably the mortgagees have vol-
untarily reduced their rate of inter-
est to 5 per cent. Many of the

Before an audience which pack-
ed St. Margaret’s hall to capacity
last night, Hon. H. D. MacLean
and Mr. A. F. McQuaid, KC., Con-
servative candldates for the First
District of King‘s, opened their
campaign in brilliant form with
an effective analysis of the finan-
cial and other issues of the pro-
vincial election oontest ' and were
received with enthusiastic ap-
plause, which increased as the
meeting proceeded and the candid-
ates warmed up to their subject.
The speakers, in order named,
were the party candidates, Hon.
H. D. MacLean. Messrs. H. H.
Acorn, A. F. McQuaid and 'P. A.
Mclsaac. Mr. Allan Gillis, Clear
Springs, presided.
The Government’s record oi'
achievement was first dealt with
by Hon. Mr. MacLean. who ans-
wered Mr- Lea’s criticism of al-
leged extravagance by showing
that the additional revenue at the
Governments disposal was ex-
pended in direct relief, old age
pensions and interest on sinking
fund to meet the debt incurred
under Liberal regime. He showed
that the $932,000 increase in debt
under the Conservatives was in-
,cured in rebuilding Faloonwood
Hospital and Prince of Wales Col-
lege, in unemployment relief and
education. This debt increase, he
pointed out, has been offset by
subsidy increase obtained by Prem-
ier MacMillan fromV Ottawa,
whereas the Lea. Government,
with a. debt increase of more than

half a m.illion dollars in their last
eight months of power, left a
million dollar overdraft at the
bank and failed to implement their
promlse_to obtain subsidy settle-
ment from Ottawa.
(Continued from Page li
Mr. McQuaid in his address re-
viewed the debt of the Province
since 1911, comparing the average
Conservative increase of $105800 in
fifteen years, with the Liberal av-
erage increase of $201,000 incurred
in their eight years of power. He
dealt with the charge of extrava-
gance by contrasting the last three
years of the Lea administration
with the three succeeding Con-
servative years, He also corrected
a statement made by Mr. Acorn,
(prompted by Mr. Reuben Mac-
donald. Patriot editor. that me
Premier received a salary of $2,000
as Premier, $2.000 as Minister of
Public Health, and $1,000 as Min-
ister of Education. As Health Min-
ister, Mr. McQuaid pointed out,
the Premier received only $1,000.
Patriot misstatements 'regarding
the Public Accounts were severely
scored by Mr. McQuaid, who also
dealt with Faloonwood expendit-
\lI‘€S. Showing that the Conserv-
atives, in three years, had effected
a saving of $103,000 in the oper-
ation of that institution over their
Liberal predecessors during the
same period of time.
Mr. McQuaid also vigorously de-
fended his administration of the
Prohibition Act while acting as
Stipendlary Magistrate.

First Que en’s
Contest Opens
At Irishtown
A strong iniprcssion was left by
the Conservative party standard-
bearers for First Queens, Messrs.
Thomas Wlgmore and Theophilus
Beaton, at the opening campaign
meeting at Irlshtown last evening.
The hail was well filled, and the
order maintained throughout was
excellent. The splendid hearing ac-
corded the Conservative spokesmen
in what is regarded as the strong-
est Liberal section of the constitu-
ency was hailed as significant of the
appreciation of the Governmcnt's
unique record of achievement dur-
ing yenrs of unprecedented difficul-
ties and world depression.
The Liberal candidates, Messrs.
W. F. Allan Stewart and D. N. Mac-
Kay, were reinforced by Messrs.
Peter Sinclair and John Weeks

of the meeting, a vote of thanks
moved by Mr. Wigmore and second-
ed by Mr. Stewart.
It was announced that the meet-
ing at French River hall, scheduled
for tonight, had been cancelled and
the Hope River meeting would be
held on July 10, and the Clifton
meeting on July 11, and ,not as pre-
viously advertised.
Reference was made by both the
Conservative crmdlclntcs to thc scr-
vlce rendered the constituency by
Hon. W. G. MacKenzie and regret
was expressed that prcmure of other
business made it ncccssary for Mr.
MacKenzie to retire from politics at
this time.

Scoring on every point of criticism

record and on the present Liberal
platform, about which Mr. Camp-

Audience Gasps
At Misstatements
Of Mr.
LePage
Liberal Candidate Puts,Both Feet

servatives Warmly Applauded-.
'I‘he audience which packed
Canoe Cove Hall t`o overflowing
last evening did not require the
able speeches of Mcmrs. D. F.
Bethune and E. A. Currie to con-
vince it that the one and a half
hour’s speech of Mr. B. W. LePage
was little but a burlesque of
misrepresentations. inconsistencies
were so obvious that at times tit-
t/ers of laughter swept over the
audience, which was decidedly in
favour of the Conservative speak-
ers. Time and again the latter
were given a rousing applause
while Liberal applause was moder-
ate in extreme.
Challenged by Mr. Bethune to
show how administration could be
maintained at an efficient level
with revenue and expenditure
meeting, Mr. LePage avoided the
issue. Ho went overtime by half an
hour. mid Mr. McPhee in the min-
utes. remaining to him merely
touched the fringes of n few issues.
Mr. William Shaw capably pre-
sitird.
The first speaker, Mr. B. W.
1.c~Pagc, gave with little variation
the address which he delivered at
Canoe Cove. After discussing fed-
eral politics, he expressed the opin-
ion that the governments policies
ii.-.<1 "horrified" trade. He save the
audience some DOIWCHI h|SU01’Y~
There was indignation alz‘21ll1St the
Conservatives, he said, and paused
for applause. The only demonstra-
tion was a lone voice in the back
of the hall.
The speaker then proceeded to
interpret the public accounts to
his hearers.
The govemmcnt had entered in-
to a contract for road building
which would cost the province
$350,000 to $400,000. he said. and
$40,000 to $75,000 was to be ex-
pondcd on the Provincial Building-
Thc men on the roads were not
working at all, Mr. IePage insist-
ed. He had seen fourteen men and
two boys behind a machine. he
said.
"The contract will be only half
through when We get into power,"
the road project, while the aud-
ience laughed.
“The cause of the Prince of
Wales College fire was that there
was an incompetent man attend-
ing the fumaoe,” Mr. l.»ePage in-
formed the audience. “The morn-
ing of the fire about 8 o’clock I
saw the walls all covered with
sleet, and they were as good as the
day they were built. They were
not hurt one iota,” Mr. LePage re-
poned. “The old foimdation was
twice as good as the new one." St.
Dunstan's Basilica had been built
on the old' foundation, he said
"The Government fell for what a
foreign architect said. and built a
building with linoleum and shower
Mr. LePage denied tha; he had
said that the Eichibltlon Associa-
tion had received $23,000 from the
Govemmeni. for removal of clay
from the Exhibition Grounds. but
tihey had "received the work," he
said. It was “currently reported"
that other bills had been paid by
the Government for the Exhibi-
tion Association.
Mr, LePage contended the ma-
jority of Faloonwood patients weze
boarders who wanted only
to be “nice and comfortable." Only
‘a dozen required special treat-
ment.
The proposed building would
take cane of s thousand insane
patients, all there were in Can-
ada.

ROME, July B-Italy believed
tonight a path from Rome to Ad-

Official circles said there was
scarcely a possibility of British in-
tervention; there is no doubt of
France’s friendly neutrality.
Germany is now friendly, they
said, and Russia will be friendly
because of France. Japan has
growing commercial interests in
Ethiopia, but Japan apparently
has her hands full with the Chin-

There remained only the League

remain of the defensive, but will
take the offensive with charges
that Ethiopia violated the condi-

to the rank of mandate.
If the League should attempt to
condemn Italy, official circles dis-
closed, Il Duce would not have the
