SD01‘ MACHINE BILL

On motion of the Premier the ll-louse went into committee with Mr. Barbour in the chair on second reading of an Act respecting Slot Machines.

Tho Premier explained that the provinces of Manitoba. and Sask- atchewan have already passed this legislation and it is being brought in this year in the Legislatures of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The object is that slot machines which under the Criminal Code are supposed to be illegal, shall not be the subject of property rights within the Province, and can be scizfd by the police vhen in oper- alien, and ordered confiscated by

in the Province, the sum of $100, and upon all corporations doing the business of trust or trust and loan companies within the Prov- ince, the sum of $400.

The net effect of this change, the Premier said, i; to reduce the «tax on loan companies from $150 to 3100. The former rate, appllcttblc at present to only one company, has been regarded as crt-cc-ssiic. It. is expected oilter c:‘mpanl‘s will come in if the rate 1:, rctlut,-cu m

the House went into committee, with Mr. Wright in the chair, on second reading of an Act to amend the Income and Personal Property Taxation Act.

section 1 of the bill adds to sec. 68 of the statute a provision that the rate of taxation on insurance companes "sha.‘.l apply to insurance exchanges. but shall not apply to special insurance brokers. Every special insurance broker accepting rbks and can-yin; on the business of insurance against fire in the Province shall pay a tax at a rate‘ to be fixed from time to time by the Lieutenant Govemor."

The Premier explained that in- surance ctimparties carrying on bus- iness in the Province have to pay it license fee and in addition to that on annual tax of $225. Some insurance associations have escap- cd paying this tax by forming themselves into what they call in- surance exchanges. There are two defects to this system; first. the Government is deprived of revenue wlilcli it derives from the regular insurance companies; and second. it involvcs un.’uLr competition with those companies which do take out licenses and pay the annutil tax. It is new proposed, in the first place. to make the taxation of insurance companies apply to these insurance exchanges, and, in the second place. to provide “a reasonable system" of taxing special insurance br0ke1”B-

"There are," continued the Pre- mier, "some classes of risks which the ordinary licensed companies in the Province do not care to carry at what is considered a reasonable rate. The Insurance Act provides that if persons who wish to take out insurance on such classes of risks offer the licensed companies to do busineg with them at a cer- tain rate and the licensed comm"!- ies are not interested in that rate, then the person who wishes to get the insurance can go outside the Province and insure at the same rate he offered the licensed com- panies. If he doe; that he must do

This measure, the Premier said, would provide “a more reasonable meth " of taxing the income of branch chain stores. At present we do not believe we are getting a fair tax from some of these Coiicems and we propose this amendment to provide taxation on a more equit. able basis.”

Sec. 5 increases the tax on Ac- ceptance Corporations from $200 to $500.

The Premier said it is proposed that the Dominion Govemment should establish a National Park in this Piovincc. but the site must be provided by the Province. “We hope." he added. "that sometime durmyz the coming summer a site may be selected and we are afraid that even the rumor of a selection of a site for such purpose would greatly enhance the value of lands suitable in the eyes of the owners. While the Government would not wish to buy such lands at a sacri- fice, yet it is necessary to forearm themselves by providing machinery vt-hereby such a site could be pro- cured and purchased at a reason- able market value."

Mr. Mustard asked if the approx- imate cost of such a site could be given.

Premier Campbell: "I cannot give you any idea of that, but it is an- ticipated that the cost will be trifling.”

withstanding that the result of ‘some one or more or all of such operations may be known to the ‘operator in advance." Under Sec. 3 no such machine :liall be capable of ownership nor I-lliill the some be the subject of property rights within the Prov- 111cc, and no court of civil jurisdic- tilon shall recognize or give effect ito any alleged ownership of or am’ property rights lll any slot machine.
