Legislative Assembly- He charges about a hundred, he charges about a hundred for writing the speech and on the bottom of every invoice he covers it up by miscellaneous. Mr. Speaker : I require that to be retracted. Leo F. Rossiter : Retract what, Sir? Unknown Voice: You know what you said. Leo F. Rossiter : Mr. Speaker , I said, "It appears to me he wrote the speech". Unknown Voice: Take it back. Hon . Cecil A. Miller : You did not. Leo F. Rossiter : I never said I was certain. I said, "it appears to me." I'm not certain, no Hen. Cecil A. Miller : You did not. Mr. Speaker : Well, then you'll have to retract it. Leo F. Rossiter : I'm not certain. It appears to me that he wrote the speech. That's true. (Remarks Inaudible): Leo F. Rossiter : I beg your pardon? Mr. Speaker : I'm sorry, you will have to retract. Leo F. Rossiter : I didn't say he wrote the speech. I said it appears that he wrote the speech. Walter R. Shaw : He did not make a definite statement that Sigsworth wrote the speech. Unknown Voices: Yes, he did. Walter R. Shaw : Just a minute now. (Remarks Inaudible) : Walter R. Shaw : Well, you keep quiet. He said it appears to him that Sigsworth wrote, an entirely different thing. Hon . Robert Campbell : He did not. You're lying for him. You're covering up for him. Walter R. Shaw : Mr. Speaker , I'm not going to let you make a statement of that kind. I demand he retract it. Nobody's going to tell me on the floor of this House that I lied and I ask you to have that man retract that statement. (Laughter) And I'm not fooling about this, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker: Will you take that back? Hon . Robert Campbell : Mr. Speaker , I will not take it back because I heard the former Minister of Fisheries say that Mr. Sigsworth did write the speech and was paid by the Government. Walter R. Shaw : I'm not inferring to that, Mr. Speaker , I'm referring to his state¬ ment that I lied. Hon . Robert Campbell : You said that Mr. Rossiter didn't make it definite but he did; I said he was a liar, and I do not take it back. Walter R. Shaw : Mr. Speaker , I'm not going to accept a thing like that. Take that man and put him out of this Chamber. No one can go around and call a Member of this House a liar. Hon . Robert Campbell : Mr. Speaker , I'm sorry that I said that but I still think he is. (Laughter) —288—
