ern farmer enjoys this freight ad- Vlni-(lke on his important cash crop. I do feel however that we aro laboring under discrimination as far as our main cash crop from Prince Edward Island is concern- cd I am most strongly of the opinion that we should enloy the same advantage and privilege for our potatoes as does the Westerl- fsrmer for his grain."

Mr. McLure restated the argu- ment which he has previously raised in the Commons to the ef- fect that while the_ Board of Trans port Commissioners has the right and duty to suggest changes ‘n freight rates, actual fixing of the rates lies not with the board but with the Government of Canada.

Scores Government

"I believe," he said. "that this Government should have listened to the protests which were immed- iately raised by seven of the Pro- vinces when this judgment came out. on grounds of unfair discrim- ination.

"Premiers of the seven Provisi- ces will be here in s day or two," Mr. McLux-e continued, “but if in the meantime the question is de- cided one way or the other by a vote any hearing that may be ex- tended to the seven Premiers will be more or less meaningless. The Government was in far too much of a. hurry in bringing the freight- rate increase before the House at the present time. It should have delayed imposition of the new in- creased rate for at least the 30 days asked for by seven of the Provinces."

Prince Edward Island, Mr. Mc- Lure said, took a reasonable view of the freight question. People of that Province were perfectly well aware that good equipment and efficient freight and passenger service can only be had on pay- ment of charges. While willing w pay its fair share of these charges, Prince Edward Island feels it is suffering from discrimination.

"My suggestion is," Mr. McLui-e said, “that. if the C. N. R. has an annual loss of 838 million, the Do- minion Government can and should determine how this loss should be made up and wiiat. its apportionment should be across the country. it can and should eliminate eidstiiig discrimination against not. only certain Provinces but against certain products."

new rates to become effective. The Premiers of the seven Provinces who had asked for a delay now would not be given a proper hear- 121g.

Mr. McLurs said that in sn ear- lier debate lie hsd urged higher pensions for some C. N. R. em- ployees, and better service to Prince Edward Island.

if the railways could not pro- vide better service, then the Gov- ernment would hsve to decide how the railways could best be used. The railways hsd been built for the benefit of the Canadian peo-

lVLr. Dickey said the C. C. ll‘. had atstod that two ships were d1- vertod from Halifax recently be- cause of the freight increase. The diverting of the ships hsd nothing to do withthe increase, said M: Dickey. The new rates did no‘. apply to import-e ,. t shipments through Canadian ports.

Some, he said, hsd criticised the Government for allowing the new rains to take effect before the Provinces had an opportunity to appeal. Mr. Chevrler had made it our that the Provinces would oe slowed to make an appeal. The Government would carefully cou-

Mr. Dickey said it was his im- presslon that in the past the Boar's had stated it did not have the power todeal with the lnequa ‘s- ties, such as those complained of by the Maritimes. However, Mr. Chevrier had said the Board had full authority under the Railway Act to deal with the matter.

He hoped the Board would deal with the matter in a satisfactory manner. If it. did not. then inc Government would be responsible for seeing proper changes were made. -

He felt that the proposed Inves tigation was the quickest way of wiping nut discrimination.
