His administration repealed the Ontario Temperance Act and established government sale of liquor in the province, settled a longstanding dispute over teaching of French in Ontario schools, brought about educational reforms, expanded the Ontario Hydro-Electric system and the provincial highway system. He enjoyed wide popularity in the province and was known universally as "Fergy." He was always at home among farmers with whom he grew ud around Kept-ville and he was even more popular in Northern Ontario where his easily familiarity won many friends on visits as Minister of Lands and Forests. One of his great assets as a political leader was his almost uncanny ability to sense the tides of public opinion. One of his favorite tactics was to sound out reaction to his policies in advance by dropping hints of what he planned.

At his death he was Chancellor of the University of Western Ontario at London, a post he accepted last year. He was a member of the board of governors of the University of Toronto and a member of the board of the Royal Ontario Museum. For the last nine years he was president of the Crown Life insurance Company and he was director of Torcnto General Trusts, British America Assurance Company, Western Assurance Company and of the Brazilian Light, Heat and Traction Company. Among those paying tribute today to his achievements were John Bracken, national leader of the Progressive Conservative Party, Premier Drew of Ontario and George S. Henry who succeeded him as Ontario Premier in 1930.

What price glory? Hunger and want. "I am not signing my name as I do not desire charity, but only the? chance to make a living in the same manner as I did before the war and that applies to most of the discharged professional men." The letter is signed, "What Price Glory." The numerous authorities consulted in the medical, dental and legal professions considered that a vete ran in such straitened circum-1 stance was an "outside case." Several recently-discharged servicemen reported that they were re-build-ing their practices all right, although in seme cases it was slow and in others that they had to rely on new clients and patients; since most of those they had prior to enlistment did not show much response to the cards sent out an-announcing their return.

A government efficial familiar with these problems pointed out that such a situation was normal "in all human experience, especially if a man has been away from his practice for some years." He thought that if the public, who had changed allegiance during the war years, gave some thought to the position cf the men they formerly dealt with, they would in many cases return, if for no other reason than "to give him a break" at resuming practice. "Some officers who held senior rank," he said, "have forgotten how to sell themselves, and that's still necessary in any business or profession, regardless of age." i Veterans having difficulty in rc-establiphing themselves have been reminded that they are entitled to 1 out-of-work benefits while awaiting, employment; awaiting benefits for resuming or starting a business or practice, and counsel and assistance from men experienced in handling these problems. Ma. H. MacLachlan Bell, superintendent of reestablishment for the Department of Veterans' Affairs, is known to have started a number of former senior officers back this way on the right track with renewed hope and courage.

Let's try and make it run smoothly and in the end we will solve those difficulties in the course of time." Going over European and Middle East problems at length, Mr.

Bevin summed up that "I am more concerned with the economic recovery of Europe than I am in geography. I am more concerned at seeing the standard of life of the common people raised than I am of the grandiose development of any other society." Colonial Secretary George Hall declared any attempt by "Jew or Arab" to settle the Palestine problem by force "will be resolutely dealt with" but he did not expound the British policy pending the report of an Anglo-American investigating commission. D. L. Lipson, Independent, declared that the "extremist policy of the Zionists is endangering everything that has been achieved in Palestine." He urged the formation of a "Palestinian state" with neither Jews nor Arabs holding full sway.

Viscount Ninchingbrooke. Conservative, warned that Britain "needs for many months to come a large and powerful army in the Middle East" because a "period of unrest might follow" the commission's report.

FRENCH CHARITIES LAUNCHES APPEAL $850,000 Asked in Campaign Linked by Bourque to Survival of Federation I CONSERVATIVE LEADER Retiring From Provincial Politics, He Served as High Commissioner for Canada in London Toronto, February 21.

(CR Death came today to bluff George Howard Ferguson, who devoted 25 of his 76 years to public life in his native Ontario and won the reputation of being one of the most sagacious political strategists in the province's history. He ended his Ontario political career in 1930 when he resigned after seven years as Premier and assumed the office of Canadian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom until 1935. Then he retired to private life, devoting his talents to business and to educational activities. From the time he first entered politics as a private member of the Legislature in 1905 he never suffered personal defeat at the polls. As provincial leader, he led his Conservative party to three resounding victories in provincial general elections.

His successes in the provincial field brought him an opportunity to become the national leader of the party at the Winnipeg convention in 1927. All he had to do was say the word. But he chose instead to throw his support to R. B. Bennett, who was chosen as leader.

Death enme suddenly. He was enjoying his usual health except for th immediate prospect of a cataract operation. Late yesterday he suffered a heart attack. His physician was called. He recovered from the first attack but a series of others followed and early this morning he died.

With him at his death was Mrs. Ferguson, his only survivor. Through 40 years of married life she was his constant companion and adviser in political affairs. Their only son died in boyhood. Literally cradled in politics, Mr.

Ferguson was born June 17, 1870, in Kemptville, Ont. His father. Dr. Charles Ferguson, for many years i was a member of the House ol Commons and a close personal inena or sir jotin a. Macaonaia.

He studied law in Toronto and returned home to practice. He cut his political teeth as a town councillor and later as reeve before being elected to the Legislature. In 1914 he became Minister of Lands and Forests in the Government of Sir William Hearst and was one of the few ministers to be reelected in the face of the victory of the United Farmers of Ontario in 1919. CHOSEN-PARTY LEADER Chosen leader of his party, he strenuously defended his administration of the Lands and Forests Department which was investigated by E. C.

Drury's Government, and carried the attack to his opponents with such success that UNDERTAKERS itijilf ESTABUJHE0 1640 JosMraysBro. inc.

Bevin did not disclose the Russian reaction. In an hour-long statement highlight the finish of a full dress debate on foreign policy, Mr. Bevin declared Britain is "troubled about what looks like a war of nerves" between Russia and Turkey and said that "I do not want Turkey converted into a satellite state." In his review of the field of foreign relations, Mr. Bevin reeled these points: 1. "I would be quite willing" if the Soviet would join Britain and America in an international oil agreement which "would solve this conflict for oil as between great Allies." 2.

He advocated international control of Germany's industrial Ruhr and an agreement among the European countries on the use of transport facilities and industrial raw materials. 3. "I think we have removed fear" through the open and often heated discussions in the United Nations Security Council. Of relations with Russia, he said: "It has been said that we are drifting to war with Russia. But I cannot conceive any circumstances under which Britain and the Soviet Union should go to war.

I cannot see what we should have to fight about." Of his offer to extend the Russian treaty, Mr. Bevin said "I do not think I could do better than that." He added that if the treaty "can be amended to make it more explicit and changed in order to give confidence, I am willing also to look at that." Today the Communist newspaper Pravda in Moscow used the word "failure" to describe Mr. Bevin's accomplishments before the United Nations Security Council in defending Britain against Soviet charges that presence of British troops in Indonesia, Greece and elsewhere menaced the peace of the world. The Pravda comment was In connection with Prime Minister Mackenzie King's statement that secret information had been divulged in Uttawa to a foreign power. The Ru.rians, in an official statement last night said they had obtained such intormation but that it wa "insisn'firpnt," and Pravda ed that Mr.

Kine had made his de claration in order to minimize Mr. tsevins "iauures at the becunty Council sessions. (In Ottawa an official reply was expected soon to the official Russian statement that Canada was fostering an "unbridled anti-Soviet campaign" in conducting her investigation of the espionage case.) In reference to Turkey, Mr. Bevin said he would like to see "the treaty of friendship renewed between the Soviet and Turkey." The treaty expired last year. DARDANELLES TREATY As to the Dardanelles, he said Britain was ready "either for Turkey and Russia, themselves, or with us as allies, to consider a revision of the Montreaux Convention" but that in any revision Britain is "anxious to keep the international aspect of the waterways in view." The convention originally demilitarized the Straits, oermittine Rus.

sia a sea outlet to the Mediterranean but in 1936 Turkey was allowed to resume control of the vital straits. In reaching a peace treaty with Italy, now being drafted bv a Council of Deputy Foreign Ministers in London, Mr. Bevin sid that Italy should not be treated "as if Mussolini was still alive." He said Britain would do anything it could "to restore Italy to her old position as a cultural and useful member in the comity of nations" and would "try to do it without detriment to Italy's neighbors." Mr. Bevin said that when Andrei Vishinsky, Soviet Vice Commissar of Foreign Affairs and chief Russian delegate to the United Nations Assembly, was in London the Russian diplomat told him that Russia had no intention of going to war with Iran "and I believed it why should I doubt it?" He said he would safeguard British interests "anywhere but I do not regard Persia (Iran) as a question of competition." He said he tried to keep Iran out of. the United Nations discussions and get a Big Three commission to examine the problem bu the commission plan was refused.

After Iran was put, on the United Nations agenda, Mr. Bevin said: "1 have no doubt it is probable that our Soviet friends were suspicious of me. I have got an honest face but it doesn't impress them somehow, and so they 'jumped in Indonesia and Greece. In the House Mr. Bevin asked Russia generally "to show the same interchange of discussion and opinion as is shown between ourselves and the State Department in America." He added that "it is sometimes suggested that we gang up against Russia.

The difficulty about that position is this America and us lay on the table our problems and we discuss them." Mr. Bevin wen cheers from all sides of the House with this declarations: "I am not prepared to sacrifice the British empire, because I know if the British empire fell the greatest collection of free nations would go into the limbo of the past, and it would create a disaster." He said that while in Moscow he said to Generalissimo Stalin; "Let's not throw any sand in the gears of The survival of private charity, like that of private enterprise, is closely linked with the fairness and thoroughness shown when the time comes to settle problems, Romuald Bourque, vice-president of the Mercury Press, said last evening in an appeal for support for the campaign of the French Federation of Charities which starts this morning. If private charity is to go on working according to human needs and not to be tied by rigid rules and regulations, Mr. Bourque said, "we must make sure that in this city of Montreal an organization upon which depends such a great percentage of the population is allowed to keep up its noble work among the unfortunates." This morning, he said, 12,000 volunteer workers will begin canvassing 175,000 homes in Montreal with a campaign objective of This objective is sliethtly higher 'han last year and Mr. Bourque aid thst he was awsre that some oeople misht que'tion the need for increased expenditure so soon after a period of p2ak employment Figures, however, he continued, do not lie and "the annual statistics of many of the agencies of the federation tell us disquieting and menacing tales cf misery want and squalor."

Halifax, February 21. (JP) Leonard W. Fraser of Halifax today resigned as Nova Scotia leader of the Progressive Conservative party at the annual meeting of the Nova Scotia Progressive Conservative Association attended by 200 delegates. Bracken Pays Tribute Ottawa, February 21. (CRJohn Bracken, Progressive Conservative leader, said today the service of Howard Ferguson, former Ontario Conservative Premier who died today in Toronto, would long be re-membered.

"The passing of Howard Ferguson will bring a deep sense of loss to all Canadians, and particularly to those living in Ontario," Mr. Bracken said. "I was very close to him during the time he served the Province of Ontario so effectively as Premier, and in later years as High Com- i missioner for Canada in London. His warm and friendly human touch, together with his outstand ing administrative capacity, enabled him to render a service to this country that will not soon be forgotten." DR. J.
