The Only piece c disgraceful Highway is from the Gri cultural collage to St. Norbort that when they voted for Beer by to Lac Thuc Retro Toba for the Sale of Beer by the Glass there will be grief Pihi ii.

The roads on the forthwith it is River cart Winnipeg part of my trip Ere As As the Sav than when they voted for Beer by the Glass they thought they improve hotel accommodation of the province by giving the hot Elmau a Chance to increase his earnings through the Sale of Leer. For the grievances that will develop along this line the government will have itself to blame. It put a plebiscite to the people Stead of a referendum on the Beer Bill submitted to the Legisla Are. The Beer Bill was a Concrete proposition. It was an in Bodi set of what was wanted by those who were pushing for the Sale of Beer by the Glass. The method of the referendum Law operative in principle in Manitoba although not. Actually written into the institution is that the people who want a change in major legis lation submit a Bill to the government. If sufficiently endorsed the government puts this Bill to the people of the province and they say whether they want it. The government did not do this. The Beer Bill was introduced in the House but the government. It to be withdrawn. The sponsors withdrew it gladly 10 double due to their own feeling after certain developments by taken pm be that they would have difficulty in getting the people to adopt that kind of a Bill but would Nave a Good Chance on a Beer plebiscite that might mean All things to All men. The boor by the Glass plebiscite carried and now govern ment and the legislature Are faced with the task of finding out what the people meant by Beer by the Glass. The free press submitted at the time that the logical proposition was to submit the Csc Bill to the people by Way of a referendum. That was a Defi Nite proposition just As Beer by the bottle from government stores a definite proposition. Think that experience has shown Ami that added experience will further demonstrate that the most satisfactory Liiri is to submit a Concrete proposition to the people so thai every mini and woman will know exactly what is being voted for. Ashen a decision has been made it is a real decision and there can be no backfiring from the Public. As the situation stands today no one knows whether the of Manitoba want Beer in hoi Els Beer in Beer Parlours either Pri Vatole owned or controlled by the government Beer in clubs or Beer in Beer Parlours hotels and clubs Beer with local option provi Sions or Beer Over the whole province whether Large areas voted wet or dry. This is what the government and legislature now have of find Cut. Aud no matter what is done a Large Section of the population will be saying it should have been the other thing. This is the trouble that emerges from the taking of a plebiscite on. 2 Loose instead of on a Concrete proposition. American attractive for the most part Courtesy of the by their readiness to give information make it a pleasure to inquire. The contrast in Canada both in highways and in Courtesy is very marked. So is hotel accommodation Only done was night on Public very time i was at Bruce Canadian soil. The scenery on our Side through the Region travelled is wonderful the roads surprisingly Good from Sault Ste.

We made the Miles without mishap from wednesday noon to wednesday noon and went to Church twice on sunday. I wish to commend the. Goo roads movement. Surely a portion of the Cost of every motor License and every Glass of Beer or Wina o spirits should go to a common Good roads fund. Motoring is an inter provincial and International move ment of the first importance to Good Friendship and Good Stanley Baldwin s visit from the Quebec it is our duty no less than on pleasure to be kind to such an honoured guest but the pan.

Lord i by recalled what he said Many he said that it was not the bolshevik its who upset the tsars it was Kerensky who at establishing a Liberal which has though been by another despotism , will much the same machinery though with greater efficiency than that used by the tsar s government. The soviet policy is not National in that it does not promote russian National interests. It purports to cause world revolutions on the pal Tern that has been carried out in Russia. The phrase has not been disowned a world revolution o which Moscow is the Here then is the difference Between the soviet government and every Obei government in the world.

Lord Grey said it was interesting see the use the soviet govern enl had made of the step the Brit ish government took. That step not intended by the British government to be a prelude to War. 1 was quite a mistake to suppose hat because diplomatic relations and been broken off we were a bit eager War with the soviet govern Lent than we were before. But the soviet government were using the break with Russia to impress the russian people with the notion that Reat Britain did intend to make Var upon them.

If the soviet government could persuade going to be at hem the variety of sectional ambitions All hoping for a special share of the purse and Providence of the Centra government is still the essential fact in Canadian politics.

Russia had been concerned of the soviet despotism had been most bolshevism fanaticism was Anu said lord. Grey. It wished to destroy All religious. The civilization which we valued today had been the outcome of various religious movements anything which proposed to scrap the past. 10 say that religious movements counted for nothing or that the old ideas of morality and the values which had hitherto obtained As be tween truth and falsehood should g0__any movement on those lines was working to deprive humanity of something to which it would always aspire and in that Way in was bound to they would then begin to a National feeling which they would Endeavor to strengthen by making out that the soviet government were the real National party which was defending russian interests. Thai was the use they were making of the rupture Anil that was Why lord Grey sometimes wondered whether the soviet government itself was not rather anxious to provoke the rupture. F k in the future our policy should be so far As the internal affairs of Russia were concerned to leave them absolutely alone. There were people who said it. Was a mistake to break with Russia the other Day. There was a Good Deal to be said on both sides but the thing had been and lord Grey said he hoped no British government to what Ever party it might belong would resume relations with Moscow on any footing which iwas not genuine and sincere. The essence of resum ing relations with the soviet government should be. That the policy of world revolution was professedly and practically abandoned that the government professed itself and in practice was a government push ing russian National Aims and rus Sian National interests. Let that be the primary condition of any re sumption of diplomatic relations with Russia if they were resumed without that condition being clearly understood and secured the relations which any government might try to re establish with the soviet government were bound to result in deception disappointment and fail said lord Grey. Poses has slowly Given birth to National sentiment and a National Public opinion sufficiently Strong at least to make All parts of Canada willing to come to the help of each. The recent history of the grievances of the maritime provinces stands As an encouraging example. When the commission appointed by the Canadian prime minister recommended that the Dominion should make substantial contributions i of i the i of the depressed which and Christ s College Cambridge.

Of a it was Snapdragon Aslo the step which the British government took in breaking off relations with Moscow it was a very interesting problem about which lord Grey said he would like to know More. Whether the step was a Wise step ii. Was very cd ill Rule to give a real opinion. It de Pended a Good Deal on a question which he could not answer. The question he. Said was this were the soviet government trying to provoke a rupture if they were trying to provoke a rupture then a was not sure it was Wise to do what they wanted. If they regretted the. Rupture and it weakened their a false prophecy from London truth. -15 years apr the Canadian Pacific hallway company has begun to launch its Bonds. This railway if it be Ever finished will run through a country Frost bound for seven or eight months of the year and will connect Wilh the Eastern part of the Dominion a province which embraces about As forbidding country As any on the face of the Earth. British Columbia is a Barren cold Mountain country that is not Worth keeping. It would never have been inhabited at All unless by trappers of the Hudson Bay company had the Gold fever not taken a party of. Mining adventurers there. Fifty railroads would not galvanize in into Prosperity. The much touted Manitoba settlement will not hold out Many years. The people who have gone Here cannot stand the coldness of the Winters. Men and cattle Are Frozen to death in num Bers that would astonish tending the assistance provinces a House dominated by a coalition of Quebec and the West promptly honoured the report. The spirit in which this was done has gone a Long Way to banish the sore feelings due to Long standing grievances which had made the people of the Marl times the protagonists of confederation inclined at times to regret their action. In the Canada of tomorrow the West the Prairie provinces which Are the children of confederation Are plainly destined to play greater and Ever greater part. These Are the provinces in which the new settlers Are to be found in greatest number and in which the work of canadians nation has its chief Field. On the Public opinion which they develop More than on anything else the future tone of political life in Canada will depend. It is an immense advantage that the people of these provinces As they grow up. First generation canadians should find an established political tradition a firm rooted habit of thinking and speaking in Terras of the whole of Canada and this advantage thanks to the work of the fathers of confederation. The new Canada will enjoy. In both the United Stales and Strong Central government has been largely the work of the West.

A fight Between Sharkey and Tunney would have no More picturesque interest than a Brawl Between two grocers boys.
