Hon. William Lyon Mackenzie King, Leader of the Opposition, in discussing the government's reform program as revealed in the Speech from the Throne, "but the provinces -have rights and objections fcfrom them might be surmounted by IMUCH GRAIN i ON WAY HERE conference. "I think the British North America Act has been an achievement and has served its purpose well but I also think it requires amendments. The first amendment. I think, should be to give this country the right to amend its own constitution. There ought to be another amendment to enable Parlia ment to pass legislation with regard to those questions that will be national in scope as Ume goes on. "It might be wise," suggested thtf Leader of the Opposition, "to secure from the Supreme Court an opinion on the authority of Parliament to deal with the government's social and Industrial program and thus save time."
