DEEMS CANADIAN
STATUTE INVALID
Holds important Legislation
Settling Labor Fights
Unconstitutional.
By william Philip Sims

WASHINGTON, March 27.-Just
BIS Canada was beginning to feel her
self free Of the apron-strings of her
mother country, she has been jerked
back to the cold fact of her de-
pendence upon England with a sud
dennees that has left her startled
and angry.
The Imperial Privy Council, sit
ting In London, has just declared the
4 Canadian legisltion known as the In
dustrial Disputes Act Is unconstitu-
tional. For seventeen years the sta
tute had been in force. Experts
have called it the NOSE effective
strike-prevention measure in the

Boards had been appointed under
its authority and in all but 81 cases
1t had prevented strikes. In hun
dreds Of other cases it was influ-

withous even the appointment Of a
board
Now, though upheld by the high
est Canadian courts. the privy coun-
Gil in London has dealt 1t a death
blow. Nothing in generation has
/ created more resentment in Canada.
And the resentment Is rather more
than a little tinged with fear, for
the London decision places Canada's
very status as a self-governing do
minlon somewhat in doubt.
Canadians Bewildered
The Canadian government Is up
in the air as to it's power to deal
with civil and property rights with

to protect such rights; to take steps

ions can alter their Constitution

lament and only the British Par

upon unanimous representations
from Canada, but national unani-

The Industrial Disputes Act
popularity known as the Lemieux
Act, after the premier under whom

with labor disputes in public

PORTLAND HARBOR
MARKEDLY LACKING
a.s IN ITS DEFENSES

Portland, Maine, Oct. 6.-(AP)-
Portland Harbor. one of the most
important harbors on the Atlantic
coast, is practically defenseless, with
not even enough coast artillerymen
left in charge to clean the guns,
Colonel John w. Wright declared in
addressing the regional Red Cross
conference here today.
Although he is styled commander
of the Portland harbor defenses, he
said, he Is mot in truth their COM
mander at all, but Commander of
the Fifth Infantry" which he term
ed mot a regiment but phantom
force" He added that conditions
will be even worse than at present
il the reduction in the personnel of
the regular army does not cease.
The theme of his address was that
the best safeguard of peace is pre-
paredness, since the strong nations
not only is not attacked, but Is able
to prevent weaker nations from
making war.
