The possibility of a vate program was considered, 'but it was generally felt by the body of members present that the 'Legion was not in a position to 'accept such an extensive undertak- 'ing without the assistance of the town, and various other elubs. The possibility of the program was tabled pending further consid- eration by the executive body, and an invitation was read by Presi- dent Lloyd Preston from the Whit- by Branch, asking any of the Bow- manville members and their fam- ilies\to attend the Whitby celebra- tion which the Branch is planning in conjunction with the local town council, and which will include a grand parade, complete with bands and due pomp and ceremony.

Says Rails 'Welsh On Wage Pact OTTAWA (CP)--The chief of the Brotherhood of road Trainmen Thursday night ac- cused the railways of "welshing" and "stalling" in implementing a wage agreement reached in Febru- ary under the threat of a rafl- crippling strike. But A. .J Kelly, boss of the 22,- 000-member union, said no strike is contemplated while the eomplaints are under arbitration. Mr. Kelly said he looks for a de- cision in the next few days from the arbitrator, Mr. Justice R. L. Kellock of the Supreme Court of Canada, and he said he hopes the verdiet will be favorable, The union and the railways placed arguments Thursday before Mr. Justice Kellock. A major point a issue, Mr. Kelly said, is that the railways are disputing a part of the settlement applying to freight train employees and until it is settled are holding up retroactive pay cheques for all BRT mem- bers. The retroactive pay goes back to April 1, 1952. 'In Vancouver, BRT members threatened to take strike action over the retroactive pay issue. In Montreal, the railways issued a joint statement intimating the retroactive pay would be withheld until all points in dispute have been settled.

(CP) -- A key block of 38 acres was acquired 'Thursday by Ausable river conser- vation authority as a first step in taking over the Pinery as a con- servation and recreation project. Fred Jackson, authority secre- tary-treasurer, said the authority Rules Out 'Dominion ed years ago, Dr, Arthur Beauchesne, former clerk of the Commons, writes in The Ottawa Journal. The preamble of the BNA Act says that the four original prov- inces have expressed their desire to be federally united into one Dominion under the Crown; and the designation of this new consti- tutional entity is dealt with in sec- tions 3 and 4. WORDING OF SECTIONS Section 3 reads: "It shall be law- ful for the Queen to declare by proclamation that on and after a day therein appointed the provin- ces shall form and be one Domin- ion under the name of Canada; and on and after that day those provinces shall form and be one Doni on under the name accord- gly." This explicit provision is empha- sized by Section 4 which says: "Unless it is otherwise expressed or implied, the name Canada shall be taken to mean Canada as con- stituted under this Act." Wherever reference is mad e to used without any mention of "Dominion", Here are two striking examples: Section 17: "There shall be one Parliament for Canada consisting of the Queen, one Upper House styled the Senate, and the House of Commons." Section 132: "The Parliament and Government of Canada shall have all the powers necessary or proper for performing the obliga tions of Canada or of any province thereof as part of the British Em- pire, towards foreign countries arising under treaties between the Empire and such foreign ecoun- tries." CONSTITUTION STANDS Is not this a notice to the world that our country's name is "Can- ada?" Canadians who, for senti- mental or other reasons, are loath give up our status as a minion need not be afraid that the omission of that word in our name under the provisions of the BNA Act makes any material al- teration in our constitution. It is only after all a question of name. If we refer to Grea Britain .| without calling her the United Kingdom, or to the United States or France without calling them re- publics, e do not in the least thereby prevent those great coun- tries from being what they really 15 Million Not Enough Population coun-| OTTAWA (CP)--Citizenship Min- ister Harris the told Thursday night the government is fully aware Canada. cannot fulfil her destiny with a population of 15,000,000 and will continue as wide a prosrein of immigration as de- velopment of the country's econ- omy allow, He introduced his estimates after the House completed scrutiny of the trade d ent figures. Canada, he said, has much to contribute to peace. That eontri- bution would be greater the lar-|} ger her population. He reported that of 164,498 immigrants to 1952, down 30,000 from the previ- ous year, 42,675 were from Britain. That was a 36-per-cent increase, or 11,000, over the number of British immigrants in 1951, the word "Dominion" as a total of general term in order to include other pole British countries which have never been given the name of Dominion, such as the Commonwealth of Australia, Africa, the Irish Free State. Sec- tion 7 of that statute which deals with our eountry in particular de- scribes it as '"Canada" without us- ing the word "Dominion", It pro- vides for the application of the statute to "Canada", it mentions the "provinces of Canada' and the "Parliament of Canada'. ROYAL STYLE This legal designation is eon- firmed by the Act respecting the Royal Style and Titles which reads as follows: "The assent of the Parliament of is hereby given to the issue by her Majesty of Her Royal Proclamation under the Great Seal of Canada establishing for Canada the following Royal Style and Titles, namely, Elizabeth the Sec- ond, 'by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom, Canada, and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith." Our designation in this new law Do- | is in conformity with the BNA Act which merged the Canadian colon- ies into a Dominion under the name of "Canada". It is obvious that the legislators who passed the BNA Act did not want the word 'Dominion' 'to form part of its name "unless it is otherwise expressed or im-' plied". Under this quoted phrase our country may be called the '"'Ca- nadian Federation', the "Union of Canada', or the "Dominion of Can- ada' which can be and has been accepted in the past, but the legal name of our Dominion is '"'Can- are, The Statute of Westminster uses ada in |trial base South 3 wrote Chinese would not orally dared risk entry into the war one' Revives Issue Of Red China las ur d U. 8. threat to strike at Red China might force Russia But he said #t was a lack of "the will to victory" that was 'the over-riding deficiency."
