[" ^hprbrook?latlu 2Swnrè Established 1897.SHERBROOKE.CANADA.FRIDAY, APRIL 20.1934.Thirty-Eighth Year.OPPOSiïlON LEADER CHARGES NEW LEGISLATION lINCONSTmiTIONAL Liberal Amendment, Designed to Defeat Natural Products Marketing Act, Condemns Granting Autocratic Powers to Bodies Apart from Parliament \u2014 Co-Operative Common-Wealth Forces Support Government\u2014Senate and House Committees Continue Work.A NOTORIOUS CHINESE REBEL REPORTED KILLED I i I Ottawa, April 20.\u2014Described alternatively as socialistic, unconstitutional, a violation of liberties cherished for generations and as a matter of simple necessity the Government\u2019s Marketing Bill oontinues its slow progress through the House of Commons.It has yet to receive secopd reading.Yesterday the House of Commons witnessed the Co-Operative Common-Wealth Federation and Ihe Conservative party ranged on one side in support, of the bill against an embattled opposition led by Rt.Hon.W.L.Mackenzie King, Liberal leader.Mr.King in a lengtthy speech denounced the bill as a negation of parliamentary government, as a step which would destroy liberty, ambition and individual initiative and moved an amendment declaring the policy of the Liberal party in the matter of marketing.The amendment would defeat the bill and it declares the House is ready to proceed with a marketing measure which would not confer unusual and autocralic powers on bodies apart from Parliament.From J.S.Woodsworth, loader of the C.C.F., came the assertion the bill was the introduction of Socialism.He congratulated the Government on the adoption of a part of the C.C.F.platform, although most of his speech was devoted to criticism of terms of the bill.The one satisfactory thing from his point of view was that it committed the Conservative party to the control of industry.He thought it should go further and apply to all products instead of being limited to natural products.Robert Gardiner, leader of the United Farmers of Alberta, and ^\t' spokesman for the farmer wing ol.i nm.* w w., w .wv the C.C.F., endorsed the bill.He was I pill JI pi Ay |V prepared to support experiments on | a substantial scale in an effort to work out a system of marketing which would give the producer a fair show.Conditions had changed in recent years, said Hon.H.H.Stevens, Minister of Trade and Commerce.In criticizing the bill, Mr.King appeared to have forgotten the world was passing through an economic crisis.The doctrines of government and of trade propounded by the Liberal leader might have fitted in well in some period before the war.The bill was simply an effort to secure for the producer of natural products a measure of control over his products.The agriculturists of Canada, almost fifty per cent, of the population, were laboring under a price condition which made it almost impossible for them to carry on.This was due mainly to two sets of factors, said Mr.Stevens.The nations of the world, impelled by fear or necessity had erected barriers to trade, quotas, high tariffs and embargoes ahd disrupted trade.Moreover the internal economy of Canada, as well as of other nations, bad been disturbed.A potent factor in this had been the growth of huge corporations for the marketing and processing of farm products.Control had passed from the hands of the producer into the hands of the processor and the Government planned by the bill to right this condition.It was true the bill was unusual but the people were looking for something out of the ordinary.To Mr.King's references to the history of parliamentary Government, the Magna Charta and the Bill of Rights, Mr.Stevens\u2019 answer was \u201cwhat has that got to do with the price of eggs or butter?\u201d The measure, argued Mr.Stevens, was no greater violation of the principles of parlianiehtary government than many regulatory acts now on the statute books.The Relief Bill, subject of the last long debate in the Common?, received third reading in the Senate yesterday and will today receive Royal Assent.The Ilouse Banking Committee yesterday heard Sir Charles Cordon, president of the Bank of Montreal; Jackson Dodds, general manager of the same bank; Morriss Wilson, general manager of the Royal Bank of Can.,da, and S.H.Logan, general manager of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, ay the banks were not affiliated with trust companies and did not use them to conduct, business front which the banking laws \u2019 recluded them.The Ilouse Mass Buying Committee heard W.A.Wilson.Animal Products Trade Commissioner in England, say the market for Canadian bacon in England was being injured by a small amount of inferior goods sent there; heard Alexander Mackenzie Toronto wholesale butcher, tell of an understanding between packers\u2019 buyers before bidding for livestock; also heard R.A.Wright, president of the Western Canada Livestock Union, K.J.Smith, of the Whyte Packing Company, Stratford, and Hon.D, G.McKen.de, Manitoba Minister of Agriculture.The Senate Agriculture Commit-Ice approved three bills, the Fruit and Honey Inspections Bill, amendments to the Dairy Art and amendments to the Destructive Insect and Pest AH.The Senate sealing and Fisheries Committee considered the annual report of Ihe Fisheries Department and laid plans for its inquiry into Ihe operation of sealing and fishing treaties with the United States.SUSPECTED IN WEEDON DEATH London Apr.20.\u2014Liu Kwei Tang, China\u2019s sensational ban- j dit leader, was killed today, ac- j cording to a dispatch received j here from the Peiping corres- I

inmate of Leavenworth prison, was rejected today as a clue to the Lindbergh kidnapping.Police Lieutenant James Flinn, who has been connected from the start with the kidnap investigation and the search

Attorney-General of Quebec today bad under consideration a report of the death of six-year-old Laura Groleau, previously believed to have resulted from coal oil poisoning but revealed by an autopsy to be the result of ill-treatment and lack of nourishment.The child died last Saturday after drinking a large quantity of coal oil, a verdict of accidental death being rendered by the coroner of this small Quebec village, sixty miles from Montreal, between Huntingdon and Hemmingford, Que.On Monday the funeral was held and the child buried.Investigation by a Provincial Police detective revealed the child drank the coal oil when her cries for water went unanswered.Dr.Rosario Fontaine, Montreal medico-legal expert, performed an autopsy yesterday and stated death was due to ill-treatment and lack of; nourishment.The child\u2019s body bore black and blue marks.Chicago, April 20,\u2014John Dilling-er may be poison to society in general, but in his home town of Mooresille, Ind., he\u2019s just a modern Robin Hood on a spree.Down in Mooresville John Roe was circulating a petition requesting Governor Paul V.McNutt to grant amnesty to the desperado, whose wooden gun flight on March 3 from the Crown Point.Ind., jail left a trail of blood and political repercussions that have shocked the nation.Many of DiUinger\u2019s home town acquaintances are reported to have s\u2019.gned the petition which alleges that America\u2019s public enemy No.1 did not get a square deal when he was convicted and sent to prison back in 1924 for robbing a grocer.Dillinger is not the bold, bad desperado he has been pictured, the #- WOMAN SPY SUSPECT ARRESTED Paris, April 20.\u2014Mme.T.Jadina Ulfert, described by French police as a German woman spy, was arrested today on a charge of gathering French
