Urges flailing 0f Another Conference

(By The Canadian Press)

HAI-JFAX. Aug. tk-Prelnier An- Rus L. Macdonald issued a state- ment here tonight urging the calling oi another Dominion-Pro- vincial conference to make "at least one more eflort to bring a- b0lii a true solution."

The Premier's statement was issued on behalf of the Nova Sco- lla government after a three-day semlon of the provincial cabinet at which federal budget. proposals containing oflers oi optional gm. ancial agreements with the pro- vinces were discussed.

Between the June 2'7 date of Finance Minister Ilsley’: budget proposals and the cabinet meet- ing which ended today, Mr. Mac- donald conferred with Mr. Ilsley seeking clarification of some as- pects of the proposals.

T-he Premier's statement tonight d-id not indicate what action the Nova Sootla cabinet had taken on the federal offer.

Text of the Premier's statement: "Since the budget speech of the Federal Minister of Finance on June 27 the Government of Nova Scotla has been giving consider- ation to the latest Dominion pro- Josalt on- Domirlion-Provinclal fi- filanclal arrangements.

"We believe that there should be another conference between the Dominion and the Provinces. "It is true that four confer- ences have been held and that no definite agreement between the

on and all the provinces has rallied. Nevertheless, in these conferencw many ts

have been explained and cleared and valuable ground has been gained.

"It seems to us that a compari- son of the position today with that of a year ago, when the first conference was held. will Dwve that substantial progress towards agreements has been made.

"The whole matter is admittedly one of great importance not only to us of today but to people of succeeding generations. It is not capable of quick and easy settle- ment but its magnitude justifies and demands at least one more effort to bring about a true solut- ion."
