ACTION ON CROWN LANDS ISSUE

Disappointment over the fact that the Government failed to’pro- vide more per diem allowances to the hospitals and concern over the irisnner in which the Dominion Government failed to provide the Province with its fair Ihsre of Crown Land benefits were ex- pressed in the House last night by Dr. W. J. P. MacMillan, dean of the Legislature, as he spoke on the Budget debate.

"Ottawa took the profit: of the nine partners. divided it among six and left the other three out ir. the cold." charged Dr. Mac- Millan referring to the manner in which the Dominion Govemment treated the Maritime: on the Crown Land issue.

He stated that the Western Provinces had received their share and Manitoba had hammer-

ed away at Ottawa so much that she received land and was told to keep the subsidy that had

been given her until the judg- ment could be made by the Do- minion Government.

Dr. MacMillan said he could rnt admire the judgment of those who had stated that S2.000,000 as in minimum was enough to run the Province as had been decided upon by the Dominion Govern- ment when it came time to giv- lni? grants.

"if we‘ i’-fifl \\P

had started at $4.000.- \\'nilld he grfliniz nearly cnoufzh to finance the Province," he stalori. "\\'e are entitled to .ivstii-P." He added that the only Leader of tho Opposition in Canada who had spoken before the Firm: (‘oniniissinn in regard In (‘roivn Lands and that he \\flllI(I .=iip;mi't any Gnvernnient that 2-.'.~.s putting up a fight rm the matter.

Wales Oollege to the end that more and better trained teachers would be available for our schools."

He stated that proper summer schools should be held at P.W.C. durim the holiday season. "These schools should be conducted by experienced teachers and by two or three inspectors who know the faults in the schools. In this way the young teachers and the pa- init teachers could be assisted." he stated.

"I think the hospitals were worthy of more consideration than the late Government gave them," he stated referring to the per diem allowances. “The Govern- ment. could find money for any- thing else". he added and he quoted the following list of grants that had been given:

“Drama Festival, Arts and Craft Guild, Harness racing, Little Thes- tre Guild, entertainment, Island- ers Hockey Club i$3.000 for two yeah-si, a dinner, orchestra and flower show.

"I have no objections to any grants that were given out for cultural purposes but their ini- portance siiiks into insigmflcance in comparison to the needs of the hospitals". he stated

He added that. the Government. could see its way clear to send lino or three Ia\\_\'€‘l‘!i to legal con-I ventions and he made it clear that ‘he objected to the Government. providing free trips for lawyers

Zion Auxiliary " Honors Mrs. Kielly

Group Four of the Women’: Auxiliary of Zion Church met last evening at the home of Mrs. R. C. Parent. Experimental Sta- ticn, for their regular weeklv meeting. During the evening a presentation and address was made to Mrs. Lucy Kielly in a most humorous manner. which caused much merriment.

Mrs. Kielly, who has been I faithful and diligent worker in Zion Church for more than 50 years, although greatly surprised. was equal to the situation and made a fitting reply in her usual cheerful manner. The evening en- joyment was further featured by the cutting and distribution of a birthday cake.

$67,000 in hospital fees and he knew that he needed all the money to run the Hospital but that Falcon- wood Hospital wasn't as badly off as the others.

"If you want to do something nice you could put through a plan to aid those training for nurses," he stated. "You have a good parallel in the Education Department where they are bonusing young students to become teachers"

He stated that those training to become nurses spend three years in in. hospital and received only five or seven dollars a month.

The Doctor urged the Depart- ment of Public Works and High. ,ways to do everything it could ‘do to improve roads and stressed

In concluding his speech Dr MscMill-an spoke briefly in regard to education. He stated he would have more to say on the matter when the debate on education re- sumes today. '

He referred to a recorded re- port of the committee on Tues- day, March 9 in which the failure rate at Prince of Wales College was being discussed.

Di‘. MacMillan pointed out th9J~[ in addition to American tourists nia_ny others from the rest of Can-‘ ada should be attracted here.

“It. is one way to bring new‘

money into the Province." he stated. "We must treat. them roiii-teou.sl_\'. Thai is the bounden ,

duty of everyone. Above all we must be dlSLll"ii'I.I_V Canadian. American tourists do not viant to see any of tlis American-flag flying stuff."

He sla ed that bad roads com- priscri 45'; of the toLir.st com- plaints about about this Pro- vince. Other cumpiimls are. he stated. lack of road signs, rest scrvicrs. c-xorbitant prices and ix-k of respect for drivers by taxi-op- 1ci'aLi>rs and truck drivers.

He stated thit he rezreited there was no regular meat inspection in the City but that this is not a, matter of the Government, rather‘ it is a civic matter.

"If you had an abattoir out there where the animals could be slaughtered it would be a good thing," he stated. Roop had a wonderful s.hsttt.oi.r which was allowed to go by the boards and which would not have happened if the people had been awake."

He stated that before an inspec- t.ion certificate is worth anything the aniima/l must be killed under inspection.

Dr. MacM‘iilan stated that the water and sewerage problem st Parkdale and spring Park could be dealt with by declaring aliealth emergency but. pointed out that the Government would probably have to do the same thing for other incorporated towns or vil- lages in the Province.

He stated that sewerage was the worst problem. and this is partly due to the fact that the principles of town planning were never ob- served.

"Most lots are not large enough to allow for any proper manner of sewerage disposal. septic tanks are only a. partial remedy."

He stated that the people of Parkdale were considering going ahead on their own to put in a water supply and sewerage dispos- ,al system but that it would be a tremendous financial problem.
