(Continued on Page 2 ANC GEORGE S ge 2. Column 4.) HENRY The Prem'er then enterod on a severe criticism of the Ontario Liberal Leader. Mitchell F. Hepburn, M.P. "Ws stand out as having been cnidorsed in ton ou' of eleven by--electicms«," said the Pro-- mier. '"We have a unique situation in this Legislature. Since the last sos-- sion the Liberal Party has held a em-- vention and chosen a naay Leador. He has had two opnortunities to get into this House. PBut. althouch he did a lot of talking, he tnok gori care not ts allow his name on a ballot paper. We now have & Liberal House Leader, and a, shall I say, 'Leader at larze'--very "No," replied the Premier. who cor-- tinued to explain that much of the milk showed a higher butterfat contont than required by law, the producer bensfiting by bonuses in such cases.

An intimation that there may be 'appolntments to the Cabinst to look after the Departments of Highways and I' Education, now under the Premier, was f, perhaps containsd in the Premier's declaration that Mr. Nixon "may have la. chance to try his luck in a by--elec-- | tions again." | Salary Votes. Replying to Mr. Nixon's criticism of dairy legislation, Premier Henry ds-- clared: "No ons will say that there have not been material improvements in the dairy industry. Since the legislation dealing with the sale of whole milk was nut into effect there have beon ch>ang#es and negatiations secking a cennditinn which will do justice to the farmer and protect the consumer." ' Tribute was paid by Premier Honry | to his predecessor, Hon. G. Howard For-- | guson, who, he said, had resigned the iPremlership to take up wider duties as ithe representative of all Canada in "old |London." He said that, after the last iCabinet changes under the form2r Pro-- !mier, he had marvelled at Mr. Fergu-- | son's capacity as displayed in his choire 'of men to perform the special duties of the different departments. Referring to Mr. Nixon's statement that the increases of salarios voted last session to Cabinst Ministers had been made retroactive, Premier Honry said: "All salary changes made by this Houso date back to the beginning of the fiscal year. The provision for that was com-- tained in the bill last session. and I am surprised that the member should bring the question up now, a year later." Premier Henry was accorded a rous-- ing ovation when he rose to speak. Early in his address he referred to the departure of Lord Willingdon and the appointment of a successor from "the heart of Empire." The appointment of an Old Country man to the Gover-- nor--Generalship was an Empire tie that should be retained, he said. He was against the suggestion emanating from certain quarters that Canadians should be appointed to the position. His Majesty's representative should be chosen from the heart of the Emnire. legislation, stating the standard adopted had been agreed upon by producers and distributors alike, and was bound to prove of advantage to the farmer. In intimating that certain changes would be made in the school grants--the ob-- jJect being to increase them where the tax rate was high, and to leave them unchanged or reduce them slightly where the rate was low--the Prime Min-- ister said that a thorough trial would be made of the principle, and, if satis-- factory, would be adopted generally.
