239 X-RAYED YESTERDAY .-

I wish to avail myself of this opportunity of replying to certain misstatements nude by one of my opponents, Col. K. B. Rogers. over his rsdto srslfori last night.

He stated Charlottetown was making no resi progress. To the contrary, Ciisflottetown has imde steady progress since the external audit of 1980 and has reduced its net debt during that period by the sum of $390,000.00.

Col. Rogers next stated that permanent streets were in a slate of disrepair and in the next breath said that we spent some $10,000.00 in capital street work to cover this very thing. However? my $-

onent is mung. capital expen - ures clear of the School Board totalled only $11,000.00. Had this been paid as my opponent sug- gested we would still have s sur- plus oi some 88000.00. Tlhis prac- tice of capitalizing street patch- ing offers some room for argu- merit.

Speaking of the increase in rate. my first year as Chairman of Fin- ance. the Bciliool Board, whose ex- penditures are uncontrollable, ask- ed for an additional $10,000.00, and firemen an additional $3,000.00. This was the cause of our deficit in 1944. In L945 we did raise the rate to take care of these addi- tions ss sound financing would re- quire, snd also to take care of the 1944 deficit. There was no 1n- crea-se in valuation but to the contrary. Owing to war conditions merchants stocks were consider- ably down and valuations low. We explored other methods of taxation but these can only be granted by the Provincial Gov- ernment and were not rendered available to us.

There was absolutely no man- ipulation of figures. Morrell and Company sre bone flde chartered accountants. We have adopted their system of accounting and every financial statement issued slnce the year of the audit has been issued under their certifica- tion as to its absolute correctness. In the mutter of labor saving machinery, surely the Colonel would know that such machinery could not be obtained and indeed cannot yet be obtained though we were fortunate in being able to obtain a. used tractor from the Government.

I know the City financial con- dition; I know where the taxpay- ers’ money is beins spent. and I know no one could be more econ- omical in the Spending of it than the past council.

It was my intention to speak over Col. Rogers‘ station at h invi ration on Tuesday st. 1 P.M. in re- buttal to his broadcast over his station last night, but was sd- vised by him st s late hour last night that it was against regula-

Morreli: “I have had brought to my at- tention certain editorial mment and anonymous "letters criticizing the City Auditors which have ap- peared recently in the local pap- ers. As apparently this adverse publicity has caused some un- certainty in the minds of a num- ber of citizens, I and perhaps some councillors, as well) about Cty affairs, I felt I should place certain facts before the Mayor and Council.
