She is still in a semi- RESOURCES ISSUE SHOULD BE SOLVED Province Would Probably Accept Solution of Premier King Toronto, July o.~The question of whether the western provinces are go- ing to be landlords or tenants of their own natural resources is an ex- ample of those problems which have to Pe settled one way or the other to save them from being argued indefi- nitely, in the opinion of Hon. Charles here yesterday. ; The fact that Saskatchewan legis- latures for the past years have been demanding the return of the province's resources plus a perpetual progressive subsidy, he believes, sug- gests the possibility that Saskatche- wan would accept, regardless of the political flavor of the Provincial Gov- ernment, the recently announced will- ingness of Premier King to settle on the resources plus subsidy basis. He does not think such a settle- ment would arouse any considerable protest, either from the eastern pro- vinces or in the Dominion Parlia- ment. He recalls that at the last pro- vincial conference it was agreed that the difficulties of the problem made it advisable to leave its solution in the centralized hands of the Federal Gov- ernment. The eastern provinces re- ceded from their view that no sub- sidy should be paid if the resources were returned and he believes Par- liament will be glad to see the affair settled. Mr. Stewart does not consider an important point the question of whe- ther or not Premier Gardiner of Sas- katchewan's Liberal Government can properly enter into an agreement on the resources matter, in view of Mr. Gardiner's recent near-defeat at the polls and the possibility of his failing to build up a majority in the Legisla- ture. Ratification Necessary Any proposed settlement would have to be ratified by botli the Do- minion Parliament and the Saskatche- wan Legislature, he pointed out, In any negotiations inspired by Premier King's latest pronouncement, Premier Gardiner would be an intermediary, a consultant, and since he is techni- cally head of the Siskatchewan Gov- ernment, the authorized spokesman of of that province, He has only the power to recommend, not to commit, and Mr. Stewart thinks a minor point the matter of Mr. Gardiner's qualifications to negotiate. "I do not know what Mr, Gardiner has done about the matter recently." Mr. Stewart remarked. "That is his business. Premier King's offer is there and presumably Mr. Gardiner will take advantage of it if he thinks it best. Discussions of the question were conducted through me and my de- partment for some time, but lately it has been dealt with by the Prime Minister "At one time Mr. Gardiner thought Saskatchewan ought to get a greater advantage out of any settlement than Manitoba or Alberta. About a year ago, however, he swung to the idea of a return of resources plus con- tinued full subsidy and, in fact, re quested as much on the same basis as Manitoba and Alberta. This is the same basis. on which Premier King has announced his willingness to ne- gotiate, A new factor in the present situa- tion, observed Mr. Stewart, was the contention in certain quarters in the West that such natural resources as remain to be turned over are indif- ferent to both quantity and quality Stewart, as expressed in an interview | .

All of the good agri- cultural and homesteading lands have been "alienated and dissipated," it is argued, and the residal mining, tim- ber and waterpower resources do not amount to much. Full Subsidy Demand "The point, of course, is used to support the request for the continued full subsidy," Mr. Stewart added. "But it also supplements and expands the original theory behind the sub- sidy evolved by Sir Wilfred Laurier when the arrangements with Saskat- chewan and Alberta were made in 1905. "The present subsidies amount to about $700,000. yearly to Saskatche- wan and about $625,000 to both Al- berta and Manitoba, Under the cur- rent proposal, these subsidies may be increased to a final limit of $1,125,000, according to population."

Furthermore, the carriage of mail for the post-office department by aeroplane is growing and several new services have been inaugurat- ed. Sixteen flying clubs were formed. Fifteen of them carried on with the training of pilots and received the hearty support of their communities. There are: 25 established flying companies in Canada today.

While life-guards struggled to rescue four persons swept off a pier by wind-lashed waves of Lake Michigan, one of whom drowned, nine bathers near by were carried out into the lake by an under- TGuaras after pulling the first four from the water launched a boat to attempt rescue of the bath- ers, but in the heavier surf which pounded the beach all afternoon the small life-saving craft was swamped.

All but the last two, who are brothers, were residents of Grand Rapids, Mich. The Pitulik boys were from Detroit. All the drownings occurred while attention of three life- guards at the park beach was di- verted to the four carried off the pier by one of the smashing waves which all day kept swimmers close to shore.

Corbett described how his moth- er had repeatedly appealed to him to end her suffering and how un- able to see her constant agony he sent a bullet into her at close range. In the letter Corbett offers stat- istics intended to prove that about 0,000. persons die of cancer each year in France, He calculates that there are 45,000 suicides annually, 20,000 of them persons who die to avoid further suffering. 'Corbett asks that the state be authorised by law to offer the death release. The law can take life in criminal cases, he argues and the state should be empowered to take life when it would be an act of mercy. ADDED WORRIES "Look here," said the doctor, "you 're run down.
