General J. H. Mac- Brien, Commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, informed Premier J E. Brownlee, of Alberta, to this effect. General MacBrien pointed out that under the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act the police force could not be charged with duties in municipalities, except in the Yukon territory. When the Provncial Government de- cided to turn over the policing of the Province to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police the city requested that the famous force also police the city as an economy measure.

Premier George 8.

Parlia- mentary critics at the conclusion of Premier Henry’s speech declared it the soundest, most sincere, and aggressive address the Prime Minister has yet delivered.

As to Hydro being political, Premier Henry asked Mr. Nixon to go back to the days of the Drury government when Col. Carmichael, a member of (that government, was placed on the was not a Conservative. ammo LEGISLATURE position .to bring forward the fact that would prove anything in the nature of political interference with Hydro while he had been head of the Government or Paul Munro, Liberal, South Welling- ton, through H. C. Nixon, Progressive Leader, who sought an election in the near future, to return to his riding and run again. Premier Henry even agreed to pay Mr. Munro’s personal election a decided effort by Opposition memâ€" bers to “get” Sir Adam Beck dumig his Hydro regime, and he went so far as to say that the then Premier, Mr. Drury, would have dismissed Sir Adam if he had dared. The same methods to “get” Sir Adam, declared Premier Henry, were being proceeded with to- day in an effort to “g ” the present commissioners, whom, he declared, are men of unquestioned integrity and abil- ity.

Premer Henry declared this money went into the hands of the man who gave evidence before the Beauharnois inquiry. “Aird’s evidence is accepted because he has proved the contribution is in rence, Premier Henry read correspond- THE DURHAM CHRONICLE Everything in Medicine for man or beast Manitoba Flour per 100 1b.

Premier Henry declared in appoint- probe two specific questions of Hydro it was intended to proceed on 3 “am- in: expedition", but Mr. Show. the Drury government had been no- thing but a “fishing expedition" cost- ing over $500,000 and said at the end that Hydro was all right.

The Globe’s pm'ty was so bespattered with Beauhamois mud that the purpose was to besmirch all others. In opposing Mr. Sinclair’s motion, Premier Henry added: “for the simple reason that public ownership cannot survive, caxmot thrive or live, but will die a natural death if the public of this province is to be continually roused with suspicions fostered by those who are opposed to Hydro. ween W.

The question Further evidence was given in the House that all is not harmony bet- arose when Mr. Nixon questioned the government for reason why the Oppo- sition should not have counsel appoint- ed by Justice Middleton in order to have status before the commissioner’s Hydro probe. Mr. Nixon received no support from Mr. Sinclair in the re- Middleton with the request without having asked Mr. Sinclair to accompany them. Mr. Sinclair had previously planned to make the same request with Dr. G. A. McQuibban, Liberal, N.E. Wellington, but Messrs. Nixon and Hep- burn had stolen a' march on the Oppos- ing pair. Consequently, .no alliance exists between Mr. Sinclair and Messrs. Nixon and Hepburn. Replying, Premier Henry said: “Me investlgation into Hydro by Mr. Justice Middleton has been and will be utterly divorced from politics and was not oc- casioned by the criticism of any politi- cal group." One of the first government measures to be introduced in the House was the moratorium bill on mortgages present- ed by Hon. W. H. Price, Attorney-Genâ€" eral. which was quickly given second reading and will likely become law within the next two weeks. - The bill provides that proceedings of foreclo- sure, power of sale, or execution in other ways must be taken before a county judge who has complete power to decide upon what time shall be al- lowed on interest payments and princi- pal. ‘- - n__1-_ In discussing the measure, Col. Price said: “the bill is intended to give some relief to people who are unfortunate in being unable to make payments on mortgages.
