The suggestions as to the best time for the confer- ence range from the middle of Sep- tember Lo the middle of November, Some uncertainty as to when the national Conservative convention would be held was a factor in fix- ing the conference date but now that October 11 has been confirmed for the party gathering, the air is cleared. The opinion here is that the conference will be held im- mdiately before or immediately af- ter the Conservative convention, but which of these times will be selected is "yet to be determined. The Dominion Government has a lot of matter for the agenda but only a few of the Provincial Gov- ernments have suggested anything. Saskatchewan will bring up some pertinent questions while Manitoba objects to a general conference dis- cussing control of natural resources mn the West. The older provinces are not especially fruitful in their contributions. Among the subjects broached by the Dominion will be re-adjustment of provipelal subsidies, provincial adberence to the old-age pensions and rural credits measures, relative jurisdictions over company incor- porations ipcluding "blue sky" laws and the broad questions of consti- tutional! amendments including re- form of the Senate. It is expected that the conference employment." will take at least a week. E. A. Lovell Writes Interest: ing Letter to President A. G. Storie While on Board 5.5.
