Mr. Cullen said that the Blue Prince used to call at one other port than Charlottetown when the amount of freight was 50 log. or more.

Mr. W. I. Agnew said that since the termination of the "Blue Peter" contract, several com. panies have been contacted. He Was quite sure that no company would be satisfied to come in here unless it were subsidized. He reiterated Mr. Cullen's re- marks regarding the possibilities of a market in the North St. Lay. rence district.

"These are high paid key men and our local men are given the pick and shovel jobs. Why should a local employee pay 525 while one of these fellows making the big money. pay only S10?" he asked. "We have a lot of people working in the City who do not live in the City and the Council is entitled to this money."

Mr. Saville said country girls who come into Charlottetown to take a business course pay good money for board and when they go to work. if they make over 31,200 a year. are taxed S15. "1 am beginning to think that the age of chivalry in Charlottetown has passed." said Mr. Saville.

He went on to say the residents of some of these suburban areas are now paying more taxes than people living in the City. He said they pay school tax. village tax and pull tax. "To add another s30 to that would be rubbing it in a little too much." said Mr. Cullen. He felt that a ieasonable tax of S10 was perhaps desirable but that 430 was away out of proportion.

After some further discussion the committee reported progress on the bill.
