Arr Official Residence

The question of a free house for the railway President was not dis- Ullaled X his presence, the former Minister of Railways said. The mat- E‘, however, had been submitted to him. in I028, shortly after the bonus discussion with Graham Bell. The latter had intimated some of the directors desired to have an official residence for the President. The purchase of such property would have entailed capital expenditure, however, and as such would have to be shown in the estimates and discussed in the House, Mr. Dun- ning had intimated he could not approve that. He was positive that thatwasinlmforhshadbean

‘ in hospital in 1829.

Mr. Chaplin: “While you were Minister did the proposal to lease a house, free, for the msnagei‘ of the road come to your attention?"

"'- slr Henry's salary

“The Board of Directors were not required to submit proposals to lease‘ anything," Mr. Dunning an- swered. when he returned to his‘ duties as Minister of Railways, foll- owing his tcrm in hospital, in 1929, the late J. A. Robb, who had been acting Minister, informed him some of the directors were still of the

" opinion rm the house should be

‘provided, and that they were in- vestigatng the possibility of less- 1318 a house. “

"I understand that you approved of it," said Mr. Chaplin.

When the projected purchase 0! a house for: Sir Henry Thornton was first‘ discussed by the Board, of Directors, in late 1010 or early,_1029. hi? had been against it. Mk. Decaf! stated. He did not know who in- itiated the idea. It was finally de- cided that a house be secured, and sli- Henry was asked to look around for one that appealed to him. After. some consideration he decided that the one he was then living in, own- cd by Fred Beardmore, was the most satisfactory. That was the house now under discussion.

m. Decary was asked by tho Board if he could arrange the fin- ancing and he had replied, he said, that he could if the price rwas right, Mr. Beardmore had told Sir Henry he valued the property at $300,000 but that he would sell w su- Henry for $250,060. Mr. Decary considered this too- high. After consultation with Mr. Decal-y, s1- Henry made a defrlite offer‘ of $115,000 for me property. Mr. Boardmole accepted on the condition that the purchas- er would also take the furniture" for an additional $10,000, making the total purchase price $105,000.

"I said to Sir Henry," m. Decary proceeded "that if the board ac- cepted that proposlton I would finance the deal and lease‘ the property to the Canadian National." Mr. Decary then described his dealings vrth the Montreal Trust Company which loaned the money“ on the personal guarantee of the witness. The arrangement. was that the house was to be bought by Mr. Seguln, an employee in Mr. Decaryb office with money loaned by the Trust Company and guaranteed by" Mr. Decary. The Trust lConvpany would be paid s 1-2 per cent or. die money and the railway would pay B 1-2 per cent of the purchase‘ price in rent on a ten year léase.‘ and in addition pay the taxes up-keep. The difference of two ‘f , cent was to remain with thawed- treal ‘rrust as a sinking" against the loan. __ .,' ,~ 5' .. ..

Dr. McGibbon suggested that there was equally a chance that the ‘PPOWPW W311i; increase in value. In that case, Mr. Decary replied, the railways could step in and exercise their option.

Dr. McCibbon: “That option was an afterthought." ‘ The member from Muskoka then proceeded to question the witness about his dealings and that of his firm, with the Canadian National Railways.

lidr. Decarysaid he was only a "nominal" member of the firm now and did not participate in any of file profit made by the firm ln its work for the Canadian National.

Senator Haydon _1n Poor Health

UITAWA, May 4, (By the Carr" adlan Preasl-Because of his indif- ferent health, no further action. will be taken against senator And- rew Haydon, it was announced to- day lrl the Upper Chamber by Sen- ator Arthur Melghen, Government leader. .

Senator Haydon was censured by‘ a committee of the Upper House for his association with the promot- ion of the Beauharnois Power and Navigation Project. Linked with him was Senator W. Ir. McDougald- who resigned last night, thus re- moving hllnself from further action. Referring to the third Senator mentioned in the committee report. 13°05‘? F-Byfrwnd, a mild rebuke was issued to him. senator Meighen said the findings of the committee would not warrant further action against him. a

"In view of the resignation sub- mitted to this House last night," said Mr- Meighen, in making his an- f nouncement, "I think it is due to: all the Senators that I should make a statement indicative, and indeed completely so, of the position which f I, as Government leader in this House, think should be taken. The resignation of Senator McDougald naturally and necessarily disposes of the necessity of further consid- eration oi that phase of the sub- ject having to do with him. I ex- pressed last night my appreciation of his action. I think the terms of the letter were unfortunate; but» that was his concern-

"As regents senator Raymond?! continued Mr- Meighen "I have nev- er felt-and I do not irnow—that the terms of the findings of the committee, just though they were, and I think entirely fair, would‘ warrant consideration of any fur- ther action against him-

"Wlth regard go senator Haydon. I desire to state to the House that I have received the most convinc- ing, and I feel I can say. themcst authoritative information concern- ing hls health, The information is such that wit/Int any reservations whatever I feel we would not be justified irl considering further ac- tion regarding him. This statement is made and in doing so I submit the judgment here expressed to the ‘ consideration "of the honorable Senators."
