OTTAWA LETTER

(By Robert Lipsctt) Reopening of the whole question of the relative authority of Federal and Provincial Governments over water powers on navigable streams Is likely to follow parliamentary Investiga- tion of the financial structure of Beauharnois Power Corporation. The company now has authority to divert 40,000 cubic feet per second at Beau- hamois between Lake St. Louis and Lake St. Francis on the St. Law- rence river and is about to seek ap- proval by the Dominion of. with- drawal rights of 30,000 additional cu- bic feet already sanctioned by Que- bee.

At one period, the King Govern- ment cont/ended that power rights on

{navigable waters were vested in the

Dominion. The claimwus contested by Ontario and Quebec and a decl- sion of the Supreme Court of Canada failed to finally dispose of the mat- ter. Shortly afterwards Quebec pro- vince gave Beauharnois its authority and the then Federal government ap- proved the plans fcr the work as not interfering with the rights of naviga- tion. .

A year ago the whole situation was brought dramatically to the atten- tion cf parliament with the claim that the promoters-who had a very limited cash investment in proportion to the cost of the enterprise, which was financed by a bond and prefer- ential stock issue-had made them- selves a present of stocks of a face value of some hundred million dol- lars and that the ultimate scheme would raise this to probably three hundred millions. By comparison it made all other Canadian promotional enterprises look insignificant In the return it promised those influential enough to put it across. The demand was then made that the whole cir- cumstances be fully investigated and Mr. Bennett ,as lealer of the Oppos- ition, expressed the view that if the circumstances were as represented, complete inquiry was desirable.

The matter was raised again a few" days ago by the U.F.A. leader, Robert Gardiner, who insisted the company had broken its lease and that it was still within the power of the Domin- ion to secure return of rights which he computed to have a value of hun- dreds of ‘millions. Mr. Bennett agreed that the whale issue be referred to a committee o: the House for investig- ation and this is now being done.

The inquiry is likely to throw up a considerable amount of mud as the suggestion has been made that cer- tain members cf Parliament were financially interested in the project. Mr. Gardiner charged that Senator W. L. McDougald of Montreal, for- mer chairman of the Montreal Har- bor Commlsslon and a most intimate friend of Mr. King was paid $780,000 and 208,000 class A common shares for his interest in the old company. These securities, according to the company prospectus, Mr. Gardiner said, were worth esopooooo, though the present market price is about $1,- 456,000. Other memhe a~ 0f both Houses are said to have been retain- ed in a legal capacity by the power company and Mr. Gardiner said men ‘ ‘ the company had been charg- ed wlth- attempting to corrupt the administration of justice in Quebec.

FIRE IN DUMP-The firemen res- ponded to a still alarm Tuesday morning at 2.30 a. ni. for a small fire in a dump near the Condensed Milk’ Factory. A stream of water soon ex- tlngulshed the blaze.

TENNIS DANCE A SUCCESS- The annual dance of the Summer- side Tennis Club in the new Capitol Dance hall was a very delightful function and attended by over 10o couples from Charlottetown and oth- er outside points on Monday evening. The lovely evening dresses of the la. ‘"95 and the Derfect arrangement of the lighting, made the scene an on- chanting one. 'I'lie Galety Orchestra and the phonograph furnished the music for the dance. The club left nothing to be desired in looking af. ter the comfort of their patrons. The vhaocrones were Mrs. .1.

—SUMMERSIDE POLICE COURT —'I\vo drunks were arrested on Sun- day in Summei-side, one had his ball of $10 estreated, the other Blllmlfed in the Police Court on Tuesday morn- ing and was fined $2 and costs. Two mcn charged with assault, were brought before the Magistrate on Tuesday morning. The case was ad- journed until Thursday. This was the sequel to a disturbance at the Chinamarrs on Sunday. A third party who escaped is being looked up by the Provincial Police and will no doubt, be apprehended today. A man charged with allowing his dog to run at large had his case dismissed with

contents and the gross weight when packed. '

Two drugglsts were talking about one of their confreres.

"He is a great druggist” said one. "He ls," admitted the other. "But ‘don't you think he makes his chick- cn salad p, little too salty?"
