CRAG AND CANTON, * BANFF ALBERTA GOVERNMENT IS DEFEATED BY ONE V0TE0NM0TI0N Oltawa After only three days of, afflce, the Meighen Government was defeated in the house by one vote, on t formal motion challenging tbe right af the acting ministers of the Meighen Government to sll inihe Uouse, moved by Hon. J, A. Itobb. Progressives who had voied with the Meighen Government in previous divisions sent it to defeat. Attendance In the house was comparatively slim, the government being ln tbe nt'gative. There were 17 Progressives in the house for the division. Fourteen 1 voted with lhe Liberals and three wllh the government. The 14 who voted with the Liberals were: Miss MacPhail, Messrs. Coote, Brown, Garland (Dow River), King (North Hurou). Jelllff, Evans, filrd, Spencer, Gardiner, Beaubien, Steeds- man, Millar, 'Forke. The three Progressives who voted with the government were Messrs, Lucas, Boutillier and Fansher. Four, Progressives who in the last division voted with the government, now voted with the opposition and thus brought about the defeat of tbe government. The four were Messrs. Coote, Garland, Spencer and Gardiner. - This is the flrst occasion since Con- Predicts Industrial Activity For Canada C.N.R. President Advises People To Stay in Dominion- Montreal. The United States sent a great railway man to Canada in tbe person of Lord Shaughnessy who was one of the greatest empire builders, few men having doite as much as. be did for Canada. If I can make a slight approach to his work 1 shall not have lived In vain. j So declared Sir Henry Thornton, president of the Canadian National Railways, speaking at a banquet of llie 'American Hallway Association here. Sir Henry made mention of the harmonious existence In Montreal Ol two great races, and also to the lure that the United States has had tor jmany Canadians, drawn thither there by commercial advantages.' He i warned prospective emigrants, however, that theirs will be the advantage if they slay at home and are content to look ahead to the future in which looms the star of prosperity. Things are going to happen In Canada in the next ten years, he stated emphatically, for Canada Is on the threshold or great Industrial activity. Rt. Hon.

Premier J. E. Brownie. has been returned to power at the head Of the United Farmers of Alberta. He Will have an undiminished majority Ir the legislature. Liberals Will probably retain their numerical strength. The Conservative party made a gain of three seats. Two Labor members, and possibly a third, pledged to support the government, were elected. Additional returns came slowly today and tonight due to the arduous task of counting the preferences under the proportional representation system. in quite a few cases several days will elapse before elections can be definitely declared. Labor suffered because of the Conservative vote in Calgary, returning but one member compared to two from the city in the last election. Hon. Alex. Ross, minister of public works, labor candidate, was defeated and the Labor vote generally was small. Constituencies represented by U.F.A. members in the fifth legislature returned their representatives as a general rule. In Beaver River and Edmonton the party gained members. In thc two new seats, Empress and ypress. added since the 3921 provincial election, farmer candidates were returned.'

The measure which recently passed the commons, sponsored by the Mackenzie King Government, now goes back to the commons for thy concurrence of that chamber in the amendments which the Upper chamber has made In it. The two principal changes made were the removal of the limitation of one per cent, for expenses and leav ing the amount in the judgment of board, and placing responsibility ror all expenses incurred In a province on the province In which they were incurred. Senator W. B. Ross, Conservative leader, had moved at an earlier stage that the act should not come Into force until the majority of tbe provincial legislatures -bad by legislative enactments signified their intention of participating in tbla scheme. He said the bill was not needed, as the provinces which had already rural credits were making profits. Senator Schaflner said that to make it compulsory to have flve provinces In the scheme before it became Operative was a good way to kll It., Senators Dandurand and Wllloughby opposed the amendment. The bill was for all Canada while it was primarily to help western farmers. The time might come when the east would need such a law. MEIGHEN DEFENDS THE ACTION OF GOV. GENERAL Senator Bei.que spoke in favor, of the bill.' II carried out a duly the east owed to the west. Grain Act Amendment Bill Is Discussed At Length In the Senate . Ottawa. The bill to amend the Canada Grain Act, known as the Campbell Bill, continues along its tortuous way. This bill would give the wheat pool Tarraers the right to ship iheir grain through privately-owned country eleva tors. Duiing debate two amendments were proposed. One would provide that the' bill will come into force on proclamation of the governor-in-coun- cll, and remain in force for a period not exceeding one year from the date of proclamation. A second amendment which was proposed states: Any grain pool shall be empower- be useful. One of the greatest Vienna bankers is speaking.

Summerless Forecasters All Wrong Says Sir Frederick Stupart Toronto. Predictions that 1926 would be a summerless year have so far not been fulfilled. This prediction was made by H. J. Browne, ocean meteorologist, of Washington, last fall. April was unusually cold, but May was somewhat above the average temperature. June is a little colder than the average, but not much. This information was given by Sir Frederick Stupart, director of the Dominion Observatory here, and weather forecaster for the Dominion. Ottawa. Declaring that the attack promulgated by, or under the direction Of, .th gt; late prime minister ought not to pass unnoticed, Right Hon. Arthur Meighen, prime minister, issued early this morning a statement defending the action of His Excellency the fiovernor-Genera I in refusing dissolution tq .Right Hoa -j -i,. Mackenzie King, now Opposition leader, Mr. Meighen states lhat when a prime minister, having asked and obtained dissolution, but failing to obtain a majority, continues in office, he is not entitled to demand a second dissolution merely because he is unable to command a niajortty in the House of Commons. More emphatically is tt true that in the cja s of cases slated above, if not,Indeed in any case whatsoever, a government is not entitled. to dissolution while'a motion of censure against that government is under discussion in the house, he proceeds. A dissolution very manifestly should not be granted when its effect-is to avoid a vote ot censure.. This was precisely the case in- ih present instance, * ' The text of the statement follows: While it Is highly undesirable'that a controversy should arise with regard to the conduct of the goyernor- geoeral in respect to a matter upon which ills duty compelled him to give a decision according to*his best judgment, yet the attacks promulgated by, or under the direction of,, tbe late ie ininlsTeF ought not to pass unnoticed. A reasonable consideration of the fact lhat his eicelleney, by virtue of his office can himself make no defence, warrants surely a' word on his behalf. There are several classes of cases in which the crown, must exercise discretion in granting or'refusing tne advice of a prime minister asking lor an appeal to the people. The only class to wliich attention need, be directed at the moment is that in which a prime minister, having'asked fitter Verbal Clash IU British HoUSe mect made i, the bouse by Sir Henry Drayton.
