prevent the tensions and broad disagreements of some earlier conferences ‘is hard to predict.

By. measuring each prpvince’s position against the index, the federal government would set the size of payments. for prov- inces that fell below the aver- age.

Quebec, which in ceived $138,000,000 in equaliza- tion, would benefit by an addl- tional $100,000,900, according te the. reports. The four Atlantie provinces, which together re ceived about $14,000,000, would
