Mr. Craig | sounded an alarm in the following | words: | i YIt wotild bé difficult now dor a | British cdmpany to acquire any large | interest in@the most promising Al- berta ®il arcas without paying high i prices.

There is a greater work to be done and it is little less than disgraceful that the Mother Country is taking so little part in this import- ant development. SOCIAL REFORMS FOR NOVA SCOTIA Mothers' Allowances, Mini- | { mum Wage Scale For Women |} Halifax, N.S., Feb. 15.(By C.P.)-- | Measures authorized at a provincial I plebiscite and endorsed as govern- | ment policy in the course of a by- elorsion campaign will be announ- ced in the speech from the throne when the sccond session of the sec- ond Rhodes administration opens in | the Province House on March 5. Whatever additional governmental legislation may be brought down,two measures are certain to come before the assembly in the form of bills-- Government Control of the sale of liquor, and provision for Mothers' | Allowances. Government control won | an overwhelming victory over the Nova Scotia Temperance Act at a province wide vote, Mothers' Allow- grees were announced by Prémier E. Rhodes during Dr. G. H, Mur- HA successful campaign for the seat in Halifax county made vacant by the death of Hon. John F..Ma- honey. The announcement was coup- led with the promise of a Mimimum Wage Board, and of Old Age Pen- sions as the province's finances were sufficiently strong to carry out the scheme. Provision for a Minimum 'Wage' Board was first made under Prenmer G. H. *furray in 1920, to become cf- fective by proclamation and the ap- pointment of a Board by governor- m-council. The act. was proclaimed by the Armstrong Government .in 1925, but no board was appointed. Amendments to the exitsing legisla- tion, prior to the naming of a board, will Tikely come before thg house in March, The final report of the Commis-i sioner on Old Age Pensions, appoint ed to determine the cost of such leg- islation, will be brought down at the forthcmoing session, but it is unlikely that pension provision will be made htis year.

The ques- tion of refusal of clearances of ship- ments of liquor destined to the Umt- cd States in whatever form it comes before parliament 1s almost certain to bring on a-battle. Both the Radio and 'the : Pensions Bills will be re- ferred to special house committees. The agreements between the Do- minion and Manitoba and Alberta for the return to those provinces of their natural resources will be up for ra- tification, and the return of the crown lands to British Columbia.

PARLIMENT MEETS Session Opens Thursday, _ Probably Last Before Election (By Canadian Presse Leased Wire) Ottawa, Ont, Feb.. 15.--~Members will assemble next Thursday for the fourth session of Canada's Sixteenth Parliament. Will it be the last ses- sion before a general election? Back in the minds of most of the Parlia- mentarians. that question is nestling. As far as can be ascertained the rank | and file of the Liberal members have no more definite information than have the Conservatives as to whether the government will go to the coun- try this year, It is probable the in- ner circles of government, which will make the decision, will await early sessiondl developments before" fixing art aporoxinmate date for appealing to the 'electors.

It is understood both Liberals and Conservatives will be favorable to its provisions introduced in the house this scssion The Cdhservatives will likely launch a debate on unemployment either by resolution or on some gov- ernment measure, This will be al- most certain to bring in review the government's immigration policy. Those who take the view the domin- ion treasury should give to uncm- ployment relief, seek to fix dominion responsibility for an otherwise pro- | vincial problem by pointing to immi- grants now out of jobs. Hon. Chas. Stewart, minister of interior and act- ing minister of immigration, is likely to suggest to the provinces that they decide on the number of immigrants they wish cach year and let the do- minion nad provinces co-operate in sccuring them. If a settlement is reached with the province of Saskat- 'chewan so that the crown lands of all the provinces will then be under provincial control, it is suggest they also should have the say as to how many immigrants, should come in each year to occupy these lands. The general feeling is now the west- ern provinces have their natural re- sources back, their responsibilities as to immigration have correspondingly increased, A board of audit is at work study- ing the claims of the maritimes for subsidies having in view the fact the western provinces will continue to rc- ceive their subsidies given originally in lieu of their natural resources, af- ter they get these resources back. Maritime rights and the implément- ing of the recommendations of the Duncan report formed an important part of the debate last session and are expected to be returned to this year, particularly if the board sub- mits any report, Last session a great deal of time was taken up: with divorce bills, protest against the procedure . by which divorces are obtained by act of parliament was led by J.

Is the Diesel-driven vessel for cing the steamboat out of commis- sion, just as the steamboat years ago | forced 'the sailing vesscl sea? virtually irom the These questions are now bei gued by that sturdy race of marine | engineers, most of whom come from the banks oi thé Cylde. The reason for the discussion centres mostly round the fact that, within the few years, the motor-driven ship has become increasingly popular. At the present time, on the seven seas and mland lakes, more than 1000 ships are in commission, In one year 1927, 269 motor ships were under con- struction, while only 30 steamships were bemg built, For the first time in history! the motor tonage excecd- ed that of steam. During the Great War, the Diesel engine made tremenduous strides. It was used tor surface elling by | the submarines, while it gencrated electric power for use below the sur- face at the same time. This principle is rapidly being adapted, and many vessels are being built which are ei- ther of direct Diesel drive, or have Diesel engines to generate electricity. Not only has this type of power unit been adapted on water, how- ever, Railway companies are buld- ing engines which are operated hy the jsame, units; recently an automo- bile with 'a Diesel engine was dri- ven for 800 miles at a cost, the own- er claimed, of just under $1.50. A new British dirigible is equipped with semi-Diegels. Dr. Rudoli Diesel patented the type of inter-combusion engine which is now associated with his name, in 1892. Three yeats later, the first real engine was built. The first public ex- hibition of the new plant was held at Munich in 1898 Since that time, there have been many duprovements made, and many different models, all based on the same principle, but ano- dified, are on the market.
