The treasurer was speaking briefly**at the annual dinner of the Young Progressive Conserva- tivé Association held at the Char- lottetown last night. An overflow crowd of more than 400 atiend- ed.

GOVT. HONORED

The dinner was given in hon- or of the new government and was attended by Premier Shaw, members of his cabinet, Federal Members of Parliament and other outstanding Conservative personalities.

His remarks were emphasized by Premier Walter R. Shaw’ who flaily denied a statement by—ex-premier A.W. Matheson that there were $6 million in sinking funds. “‘He was only about $2,000,000 out”, Mr. Shaw asserted.

“It comes very ill from the previous administration or from any spokesman of that admin- istration who allowed our fin- ancial condition to deteriorate into such a deplorable level to come out and critize the present government’”’, the Premier stat- ed.

“Our net debt by March 31, 1960 will be in the vicinity of $32,000,000, or perhaps more”, said Premier Walter Shaw last night as he added he would stake his future political reput- ation on the statenfent.

Premier Shaw was replaying to statements of former Premier A, W. Matheson in which the ex-

premier said the province had

ne eee ee ing funds and the net debt was only $25,000,000.
