Mr, ` THOMAS ul cMILTJtiN (South1 Huron): air. Speaker, I ris6 to a question of privilege. In yester- day's MaiI.and Empire I find the fol- lowing: 'SOttawa, Ontario, June 28,—The reasons Thomas Merkfillan, South Huron, was not entitled to a pair are stated in ' the 'fallowing statement trade •by W, A. 'Boys, chief Conserv- ative whip. Mr. Boys has given the following details of the situhtiost over the McMillan pair. , When. the Liberal whip asked me for a pair for Air. McMillan I refused on three grounds: I. Early in the session when Mr. A. D. Chaplin was sick in :bed in Chath- am and could not attend, I was refus- ed'.pair for him. 2.

Middleon, President worth SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1926. News ago paired with Mr. Jones of Nev Brunswick, and had disregarded his pair and had voted. 3. Mr." 'ern 'ch I G u ae , one of the Progressives, was supporting the op- position, so =I was given . to under stand, 'and had t,o leave for, tie west on 'account of the illness of his daugh- ter, and I felt his vote would offset .Mr. McMilllan's, and the actual voting strength of the House would. thus be preserved. ' ''addition to the above reasons I' since learned from Mr. Hocken that about five weeks ,'ago Mr. McMillan shad 'approached hiin for !a sessional pair, to which, Mr. Hocken had verb- ally 'agreed. On the 13th June, Ivfr. Hocken totfk sick and was confined to bed., On the 15th .June, Mr, Hock - en, 'owing to the unusual importance of the division; asked'to have the pair 'con'firmed by the 'Liberal whip, and asked Mr. Mc'lvfdlan to conte to see shire in his room. This !Mr. McMillan refused to do, ',and in consequence lrr• Hocken had to be 'tarried into the House . at two a.m., when he should have been at home in +bed,", Mr. Speaker, I wish to take excep- tion to such a statentent, •:So 'far as am implicated, there is no truth in. this statement. The hon: member for Royal (Mr. Jones) came to the . and asked for a pair. My reply was: "All' right, .but 1 will do nothing myself we will go to our whip, Mr. Cas - grain," which the did. I ;told 'Mr. Cas - grain in the presence of Mr. Jones that he would like to 'pair with ,ore, and while I was not''going home till to -morrow, ' Friday, night, yet I would pair with him from that mo- ment until my return on Monday night, :but it was between the two of them. When Gate 'hon. member far. Royal 'did return, he 'came to me and said that while he thought he was paired, he knew there was no blame attached to toe. As^to the hon. ,member for Toronto West Centre (Mr. Hocken), while we did meet and 1 would have liked a sessional pair, I got tro •such assur- ance from him, and : considered our pair only temporary over t he week end until our return on the foilowin'g Monday. Furthermore, I know noth- ing of the hon. member for Toronto West Centre wishing the Liberal whip to confirm my pair with him on the evening of Tune 15. This report is the first 1 have heard of it. That was the sante night on which my pair ex- pired with Mr, Jones, and while a messenger did .hartd the a note front Mr. 'Hocken, saying be wished to see Inc in his room, it wai just when the vote was 'called, and. having no ob- ligation to him, 'I returned ` the note saying I could not come at present, 1 did no't know of his illness till after- wards. Mr. H. C. HOCKEN(T ( oronto West Centre): Mr,''Speaker, the state- ment made by the .chief whip of the Conservative party which has just been read by the . hon. member eor South Huron (Mr, MdMillan) is ab- solutely accurate. The 'hon: member came to me of his own initiative, outside the door of my room up- stairs, and suggested that he and I should pair for the session. The words he used were these: "When 1 am away you won't vote, and when you`.are away I, won't vote." If that is not to be understood as a sessional pair between two hon. members of the House, then I would like to know what is. As to the occasion upon which he voted, I was under the doctor's orders at the time under no circumstance.e to leave my bed. 'I endeavored to get the assistant whip to confirm the ses- sional pair '1 had made. Wvtth the +hon, member for South Huron, and he came to me and said .he hadgone to the hon, member for South Huron and said that be would like 'him tel came and see me .hs my room up- stairs so that 1 could go home to bed, -but that the hon. member for South }Titian had refused to do so. that is the substance, and pretty nearly the text, of the statement made by the whip, and I am here to say that that statement 'is correct, Y Mr.. G. B. JONES (Royal): .Mr. S'pe'aker, I have listened to the state- ment made by the hon. member for South Huron (Mr, 'McMillan). On Thursday the lath of June 1 passed a nate across the floor to the hon. mem- ber for Shelbourne-Yarmouth (Mr, Hatfield) asking him to' favour me with a pair from 'Friday until the next W'e'dnesday. Hc returned the note ands. said that •he was paired with the hon, member for'Digby-An- napolis (Mr, Short) until his return. I spoke to our whip and 'he said: "Perhaps you could see Mr, McMil- len," I crossed the floor to where Mr. •McMillan was sitting, somewhere near his 'ol'd seat before we changed sides, and I asked him if .hee would give ine a pair until next Wednesday,. He said, Watt till I secmy whip." He spoke to the whip of/ the Liberal party, and thewhip beckoned me tri come' up and said: "You wish to pair with Mr. MelMillanp"\.I said, "Yes, until next 'Wednesday," The Liberal whip wrote down Jones.,McMillen, Wednesday." I got alp Then to leave, and Mr. McMillan put out his hand and shook hands on'it. I went over and`repoeted the natter to ourwhip, and 'he recodred the pair in the same way as until Wednesday next. That was on Thursday night, I went home on (Friday afternoon and arrived in Montreal at 7.20 on Wednesday morning, and on looking at the Mon- treal ,Gazette I noticed that it said that I was the only Conservative away 'from the House without a pair. You den understand' 'the feeling that came over •the when 1 read that.

"Oli, well;' be said, "It was our whip." I said: "I did riot pair with your whip,' I made an .honourable pair with you as be- tween man and 'man and merrier and taiember, add you hlave gone back on your word" He, said, "The next time we make a .pair we will make it 'be- tween ourselves," He" -then a'sl&d me if 1: would give him a pair that week end so that he could go 'home las his wife was 111,' and I said: "Not until this matter' is Cleaned That is the last 'conversation 1 with the hon, members MRS.
