Newman Furnaé L. /HOUSE fl‘elgph/one 308W ialled Torohto On Tuesday Canada celebrated its 80th birthday and here in Ottawa We observed the day by holding regular sessions in an effort to solve the many problems facing our country at this time. Canada has come a long way in eighty years and today occu- pies a proud place among the na- tions of the world. It is noteworthy that on June 10 the Prime Minister, Right Honour- able W. L. Mackenzie King, com- pleted twenty years as this nation’s chief executive. He has been Prime Minister for one quarter of our na- tion’s history. Mr. King’s terms of office total 7,305 days exceeding all records in the British Empire except that of Sir Robert Walpole. Wal- pole’s terms of office as Prime Minister of Great Britain totalled 7,620 days, or twenty years, ten months, nine days, To equal the Walpole record, Mr. Mackenzie King would have to remain in office till April 20, 1948. H The work of this session is pro- gressing rapidly these days and it is expected the business will be con- cluded by July 15th. Negotiating with Newfoundland A delegation has bf‘en in Ottawa conferring with Government repre- sentatives here in the possibility of Newfoundland becoming a part of Canada. It is proposed that it should become the tenth’ province in our confederation. There are manv angles to be considered on both sides of the proposed bargain and it is unlikely there will be any quick de- cision in the matter by either party. Newfoundland, which was in extreme financial difficulties a comparatively few years ago, enjoyed an era of prosperity during war years and is today in a good financial position. It is interesting to note that in New- foundland old age pensi ns are paid at the rate of $20 139' annum to residents 75 years of age and over. Oleomargarine is manufactured there and sold at about 43 qenls per pound compared with butter at around 80 cents. Newfoundland owns her own railway and all but one of the four or five radio stations. The island has no system of family allowances: customs revenue runs around $20.- 000,000 annually; an'l the cost of living is high. It might be better for all of us to acquire a better ac- quaintance with this old British col- ony, as in the years ahead it 100ms as a lively topic of Canadian politics. The island of Newfoundland virtu- ally spans the mouth of the Gulf of St. Lawrence at the entrance to the inland waterway whicn extends some 2,000 miles from the Atlantic to the! head of the Great Lakes. On the north the island is separated from the mainland by the Sirait of Belle Isle, nine miles wide at its narrow~ es‘t point. On the south, Cabot Strait is about sixty miles wide at its narrowest point. 1‘ ‘ Geologically, Newfoundland is an integral part of North America. 1?. consists of the unsubmerged high- lands of a now foundered extension of the Appalachian mountain sys- tem; the lowlands formpart of the “banks” of the North Atlantic which lie off Newfoundland. The general topography of the island is rough and broken. Fertile soil is limited, and'the forested area, tho gh ex- tensive, in general )ears only small trees. The coast is heavily indented with large bays and fiords. The area of the island is about _4’3000 square mi]es larger than Ire- land’s and about 84% that of the combined area of Canada’s three Maritime provinces. The sovereignty of Newfoundland also extends to some 110,000 square miles of Lab- rador on the mainland. The population which has been in- creasing relatively quickly, is about Elgin MillS. phone 191 Richmond Hill ERNIE HALL Hall’s Service Statiofi 3t!

Close to 9092- of New- foundland’s People live on the coast, in some 1,300 communities scattered along the 6,000 miles of shoreline. About 45% 0f the population‘ are on the Avalon Peninsula in the south- east, with some 60,000 in St. John’s, the capital, any] its suburbs. The mining communlty of Bell Island and, the pulp and paper communities of Grand Falls and Corner Brook are the only other settlements with a population _0Vé_3r 5300-0. With little immigration into New- foundland durmg the past century, about 98.5% 0f the population are native-born and possess a distinctive national character. (In Canada the percentage of native-born is 82.4%). The principal racial groups are Eng- lish (about 60%), Irish (25%), French and Scottish. A “rolling pin” brigade marched on Parliament Hill last week. A delegation of ladies representing the Toronto Housewwes’ Consumers As- sociation, and other Housewives‘ or- ganizations throughout Canada came here to put some alleged high pres- sure on the government regarding price increases and other matters. They urged a reduction of ten per cent in all prlces, an increase in Old Age Pensions, and a reduction in in- come taxes. The lalies carried a rolling pin as a symbol of their or- ganization and they invaded the building in large numbers. Thev made soap boxes out of stairways and delivered angry oratian in sum port of theirjemands. Neither the logic of their arguments nor thew methods met with rnuch favor here. While the Commons is in session members may wear their hats wnilc sitting, but when they rise to speak they must take them off. This is an ancient rule in the British 1)81‘~ liaments. Very few members, how- ever, wear their hats in the House. When that famous olil Saskatchewan Minister, Mr. Motherwell was here he frequently wore a peaked can. The late Sam Jacobs used to wear his hat in the House, and on orca- sion, Brantford’s Ross MacDonald, has worn some head-gear as well. Tommy Church has been known to come in with a straw hat in the hot July days. On the whole it is quite an unusual performance, but it is often recalled here that the late -“Herb" Lennox, a popular former re- presentative of North York freâ€" quently appeared in the house with his hat adorned with red band in keeping with his famous red tie.
