PRIVY COUNCIL
Ontario gained the right to argue
before the Judicial Committee of the
Privy Council its appeal from the de-
cision of the Supreme Court of Can-
ada that the "Scott Act" -and not the
Liquor Control Act --stili holds .sway
, ilii the Counties of Peel, Perth and
'Huron.
In granting leave to appeal, how-
ever, the Lord Chancellor, Viscount
Tlailsliam, said that if the Canada
Temperance Act, or Scott Act, was.
to be challenged on constitutional
grounds, it should be clone (Briefly,
.and not in a roundabout way. He in-
dicated that, the Privy Council would
`bear the -appeal because there had
been a conflictof judicial opinion; and
the matter was obviously one of pub-
lic gravity,
Attorney -General Arthur Roebuck.
bas stated that it will: likely be well
on in 1986 before the Privy Council
hears' this case.

Provincial Convention, The conven-
tion was held at Collier St. United.
Church, Barrie, Mrs. Kerr, the pro-
vincial president, stated the liquor
traffic had been a problem since pi-
oneer days. At one time Canada had
prohibitory laws in all the provinces
but one; then the • Government Con-
trol Act was put in force. Later on
the Beer and Wine Bill became law.
At the present time we have the bev-
erage room system, which many de-
clare to be worse than the bar -room.
Respect ect
for law aw and order has not in-
creased nor has bootlegging disap-
peared and Government Control has
not banished private profits, More
than 1070 new centres of private sale
have been opened since beer and wine
amendment has become law, In On-
1tario the 1934 expenditure on liquor
was over $36,000,00 an increase of 19
per cent. over the previous yeas. The
beer sales showed an• increase of 49,1
per cent. and totalled the lage sum
of $17,113,835. The speaker remarked
had this large expenditure on alco-
holic beverages together with that of
the previous year been diverted into
channels of business and industry this
would have made a great change fo
the better in aur economic system.
The speaker said that some week
ago in a Canadian city 475 person
appeared on pay day for their relie
funds. The next day one was in cour
for drunkenness. Out of the $9.11 Ir
had received the previous day he'
ha
19c left, He hadtwo dollars wortl
of cigarettes in his pocket, had spen
four. dollars in a pool room and the
balance had been spent for beer. He
could not pay his fine and the county
was at the expense of supporting hire
for thirty 'days in jail. What of itis

MISSIONARY ADDRESS
ON SUNDAY EVENING
Rev, 11, E. Stilwell, D.D., Spoke in
Baptist Church.
Rev. H. E. Stilwell, D,D., Secreta
of the Canadian Baptist' Foreign Mi -
sion Board, was the ,speaker in the
John Street Baptist Church on Sun --
day eventing last. In a stirring ad-
dress, Dr, Stilwell recalled c ec] the history -
of Canadian Baptist missionary ent-
erprise, from the sending out of the
first missionaries, Mr. and Mrs. Bur -
pee, from the Maritime provinces - in
1845 and the historic farewell meet-
ing. in Ingersoll for Rev, A, V. " •
pany twenty-two-
It
years later, to the
;
efficient organization of the Foreign
Mission Board of to -day. This Phar
consists of twenty-three mem e,
five of them women, Pram the nine e
provinces of the Dominion; and it re-
presents the one hundred and forty
ousand members of t
hnndred!
Baptist churches in Canada,, front
Halifax and Sydney on the east to
Prince Rupert and Victoria on the
west.
The work of Canadian. Baptists
broad is carried on in India, among
he Telugus, and in, Bolivia. Dr, Stil-
ell himself laboured in India, for '.
orae years as a missionary under the
oar
d. Shortly after his appointment
s Secretary, he visited Bolivia, in
rder that he might become more
onversant with the less well-known
work there. Going back to the.days
f Columbus and Pizarro, in graphic
ords the speaker told. the story of
e Inca people. It is to their des-
ndants,
the Quechua Indians, and
another tribe, the Aymaras, that ,
anadian Baptist missionaries are
ing the message of the' Gospel to-
y. The missionary'venture in Bol-
a is as yet in its infancy; Canadian
orkers have to contend with obstac-
of climate and altitude, as well as
ose of ignorance and superstition.
t the need is very great, and the
rk ,progresses gradually but sin-ely.
