PAGE EIGHT PREMIER HEARS HIS SON OPEN PARLIAMENT CAREER WITH PLEA FOR PATIENCE Army as Eager as Any to Fp 41i0s Received Attack, But Lacks Re- sources, Declares Young Churchill Churchill, the Prime Minister's son who was elected to Parliament from Preston in a by-election several weeks ago, made his maiden speech in the House of Commons yester- day. . His father sat with his back to his son, perhaps so as not to em- barrass him with a paternal eye. The House cheered as | young | provide an For Livestock Show Judging by the list of advance entries, (ne Commercial Live Stock Show being held by the Ontario Provincial Winter Fair (Guelph Winter Fair) at the Union Stock Yards, Toronto, Nov, 28, 20 and 30 promises to be even more success- ful than the fair's live stock show at Toront¢ last year The show pro- vides an opportunity for buyers and owners of high class beef cattle, sheep and swine to get ;ogether and outlet for Christmas Churchill said, "Do not let us urge | marketing of quality live stock that the Army should be launched upon the enemy until it is capable of doing something really effective." To members who. "frequently in- quire why we do not seize the in- itiative, enemy's country out of the war with a few woll- directed bembs at St. Peter's" he said: Army Eager, Too "his same offensive spirit pre- vails in the Army, but there is more comprehension of how slender nave been our resources in the past and an understanding of the conse- quences of going off on half-cock. "I say with all deference that there are a number of persons in this House who bear some measure of responsibility for any shortage of equipment which may handicap our strategy." Declaring that there is little talk in the Army of war aims, because the soldiers know they are fighting for 'their homes, their lives, their freedom, their right to determine their own future," Randolph Churchill said the few who are con- cerned about war aims "I suspect are more anxious to presare some quack remedy of their own to fol- low victory than they were con- cerned with victory itself." Future Needs Care "Whatever our war aims may be, unless we key ourselves to abso- lutely iron determination to exert ourselves after war as fully in years of peace and reconstruction as we have done in war, all we have gained will be thrown away "We have seen reckless survivors of the generation which saved Britain and the world a quarter century ago flinging 'away the fruits of victory and being plunged into one appalling muddle and dis- aster after another. I do not be- lieve young people to-day intend to make that mistake again." Clement Attlee, Lord Privy Seal, congratulated Lt. Churchill, saying "It must be an extremely difficult thing to make a maiden speech in this House when you are the son of a very distinguished father and, indeed, the grandson of a very dis- tinguished grandfather." Sir Alfred Knox, Conservative, said that in all the years he had been in the House he had never heard a member carry off a maiden speech with more brilliant colors. He said Randolph Churchill came into the House as the inheritor of a terrifyingly great tradition and the example he has given of his powers shows he is going to act up to the greatest of his forebears." SOLDIER FACES MURDER TRIAL New Brunswick Recruit Before Court After Pal Killed in Fracas A Home Counties Town, England, Nov. 27 --- When Private Charles Augustin Monahan, 26, of Saint John, N.B, appeared for trial on a murder charge, the prosecution as- serted the prisoner shot his best pal, Lance - Corporal Creighton Chas. Baker, of Juniper, N.S, after a dispute with the regimental cook, Private Evans. All were members of a New Brunswick infantry regiment. G. J. Ball, prosecuting, said the dispute arose between Monahan and Evans in November. On Nov. | 13 the men were lined up for sup- per when Monahan arrived. He had | had some drinks but was not drunk. | The pair exchanged words. Mona- | han reportedly said: "I'm going to! get you before the war's over if I have to get you the dirty way." { Monahan vanished, re-appeared | with a rifle and told Evans to get | in a corner. Baker told the accused to put down his rifle. Monahan told Baker to stay still, but the lance-corporal stepped forward Ball said Monahan fired and Baker fell to the floor. Monahan then fired at himself, suffering a | fish wound in the chest. He went | out and was subszquently arrested | by police, to whom he said, accord- ing to the evidence: "I would have got him, but I got my best pal. I shot him in cold blosd. All IT want to do is die. I deserve all T get."

"I certainly do not think it is fair or reasonable to expect the Attor- ney-General of a tions," he declared.

The monster with the horns and the cpiked tuil is the Attorney-General "I am certain from a recent ex- perience that the raiding of gam- bling resorts is blamed on the At- torney-General. During the recent episode, in all there has been in the newspapers, I have not seen a single reference to the fact that the law making gambling resorts illegal is the responsibility of the | Dominion Parliament and the At- | torney-General is only enforcing the law.

Due to the perishable 'nature of such fruit and the un- usual shipping conditions as a re- sult of the war both the Depart- ment of Agriculture and the Post Office Department say that it is not advisable to include any fresh fruit in such packages on account of pessible damage to the package itself and also to other mail with which it may come in cdntact. Moreover, due to the fact that mail sent to the British Isles is longer in transit while the war is on than in normal times, it is not likely the fruit will be delivered in edible conditicn, In the case of gift packages in- cluding apples only, certification jouer the Act referred to is requir- ed before the parcel can be sent.
