February decision of the British Privy Council t.hat finally settled. in favor of the federal government. the question of whether it or the provinces has jurisdiction over in- ternational and in t e r provincial road traffic.

The federal government promptly announced it did not want to exer- cise the jurisdiction and called the federal-provincial meeting to try to work out a formula for handing the power over to the provinces. As introduced. the legislation says that in any province where a licence is needed for a highway operation within the province. no person shall operate an extra-pro- vincial undertaking in that prov- vince without a licence from the I provincial transport board.

RESERVE POWER.

The board would be empowered to set rates for this kind of traffic in the same way it sets them for intra-provincial movements. . However. the federal government would reserve for itself an over- riding authority to exempt any cross-border operation from pro- vincial control.

The bill would provide penalties Ior violations up to $1,000 and a year in jail. Fines would be pay- able to the provinces in which they

ed "to create a cerltable Hades on Earth for many wrong-doers in the realm of business."

Mr. Chappeii stated that statist- ics show 91% of established Can- adian business has honest intent, because they realize that business structure is built on consumer con- fldenoe and a customer is easier to retain than to regain. He pointed out that the criminal element in Canada constitute only a trifling minority but their apprehension, prosecution and correction require us to budget a totally disproport- ionate outlay for board lodging and administration, all from taxes levied on decent law abiding citi- sens.

“By trying to prevent unfair treatment of consumers. by pro- moting fair selling and advertising prsctise...by prosecution of fraud when persuasion and example are of no svail...by educating the householder and their families izi better buymanship. . . and finally the furtherance of a better under- standing generally of business- consumer relations. we are able to help interpret business to its clientele," said Mr. Chappeii.

Mr. Chappeii went on to say that although the seven Better Business Bureaus across Canada are operat- ing on a limited budget, they were able to perform 100.000 instances of service last year.

Newest Ill Chain

"Your Bureau is the newest in the chain." said Mr. Ohsppell, "and has rendered an excellent account of itself. Racketeers of several var- ieties used to look upon the Mari- times as a ‘happy hunting ground‘, but since Mr. Rolfe. our managing director. has been given the man- date from businessmen of the three Maritime Provinces. he has smitten trespsssers hip and thigh." pdded the speaker. ,

Mr. Chappeii noted. that in the Marltimes. are an unusual number of old and reliable flrnis bearing enviable reputations and setting worthy examples right across Can- ada: “Unfortunately." said he, "many such firms have told the Bureau that since their actions have always been ethical and since they have been imbued with the best of business morality. they could see no reason for supporting it." This he thought was a. very wrong attitude since. if such reputable firms did not stand behind the Buresu. "Whom could they expect to stand behind it...ths shady ones?" he inquired.

The retiring president reminded his listeners of the slogan of the B.B.B. which is “before you invest. investigate" He pointed out that inquiries are more welcome before a. purchase is made than settling a complaint later. He noted that each year the number of inquiries are exceeding the number of com- plslnts "There is no attempt made to convince an otender against his will." said Mr. Chappeii. "but when shown the error of his ways. he often becomes s loyal and con- structive cog in the business frat- emity."

"I do not exaggerate when I tell you that I am confident of the continued growth of the Better Business Bureau in the Maritime... lvcntuslly it. will be. if not now. one of the outstanding Bureaus in Canada or the United states. in accordance with the best tradit- ions of our undaunted authority."

Mr. N. M. Rolfe, managing dir- ector. save a very comprehensive report and actual histories of sev- eral recent cases which the Bureau has investigated. In this instance he paid warm tribute to the work done by Harold O. Kinnear. field- msn and investigator. He described the work dons by Mr. Kinnesr as

"uncanny" in bringing about satis- factory results.

Cites Few Cases

To mention a few of the cases which were brought to the attent- ion of the Bureau were rug sclliiig games: He spoke of lotteries which were being conducted by certain businesses without police interfer- ence. He felt that the public were to blame in not bringing a com- plaint about such practises. Mr. Rolfe cited the instance of aluminum ware being given away at theatres and the names of un- drawn ticket holders being used as a prospect list for the salesmai: who would follow up these drawings with a $50 credit certificate for the housewife. He said that the Bur- eau was able to make things so (III- ficuit for such salesmen in certain areas that they had to leave to-.vii. "Do not hesitate to ask for our

OTTAWA (CPI — The bureau of statistics reports that by the end of I952 Slll‘I'q'-Iced road mileage in Canada had increased by nearly 50.000 miles, since the war. But the number of motor vehicles per mile had climbed to 17.4. even more than the I928 prc-depression peak of 18.7. Expenditures on highiviiys in 1952 increased in all parts of Canada exccpt Newfound- land. Nova Scotia and the Ter- ritorics.

more.

The convention was held in the writing room of the hotel and the members later met in a joint din- ner meeting with the Rotary Club in the main lounge.

Heard twice, in the morning and afternoon sessions. at the conven- tion was Mr. Alden C. Palmer. chairman of the Board R. and R. Service. Indianapolis. Indiana. who also was guest speaker at the com- bined luncheon meeting.

Morning Session

In the morning session ha dealt- with past experiences as be titled his talk “Gems from my notebook.”

In his talks he pointed out that men live by lncome—-not by cap- ital‘ and‘ said there were tuo sources of income. men at work and money at work. He said the

problem of building a future ‘in- come rested on three things, thrift sound investments and time and felt that life insurance was the only solution. As roperty he be- lieved that it offe ed the greatest advantagu through low down pay- ments, installment purchase pay- ments. no intcrest or carrying charge and automatic extension oi time for the payments. He stated there were many other advantages as well.

Mr. Palmer. accompanied by Mrs. Palmer. arlrved here via the Wood Islands ferry route when hcavy fog ln Newfoundland forced them to cancel plans for flying over. Their arrival meant that they had com- pleted vislts to every one of the 10 Provinces. Mrs. Palmer was delight- ed with the Island; its red so.l. green grass, crops and trees made it for her the most beautiful place in the Dominion. 'I‘he_chic-I regret of the two visitors was that time did not permit them to stop long enough to visit the many beauty spots of which they had heard.

Mrs. Palmer particularly wished to see the Green Gables country: “I have rcad the book and seentlia play,_now I would like to see the place itself." she said. Her husband was attempting to plan a motor itinerary to the Borden ferry which would provide time to travel via the North Shore route.

other speakers

Other speakers heard briefly dur- ing the day included Mr. Svend I-Iaiisen. Moncton,"Regionnl v'cc president, who was introduced by Mr. C. A. Shaw. C.L.U.;, Mr. Alex W. Linguard. secretary of the liifc Underwriters Association; Major Gen.

Costigane_ superin- tendent of Agencies, Confederation Life. Toronto. who was introduced by Mr. R. J. Rupert.

Mr. Palmer was introduced by Mr. Linguard and when the lat-.er spoke to the gathering he was in- troduced to them by Mr. R. E. Younker.

A vote of thanks was extended to the panel of speakers by Mr. J. Wilfred Driscoll who said how much the meeting appreciated the long distances the speakers had travelled to be present. They were then presented with gifts as a tok- en of appreciation of their time and efforts. The presentations were made on behalf of the local associ- ation by Mr. Stewart G. Ives.

authorities or the two federal ad- niinistrations—~or perhaps all to- gcthcr—wouid begin discussions as to how the navigation plans are to be worked out.

Main question In the discussions will be the location of canals in the International rapids sections of the river.

The Canadian government wants the canals on this side of the river. in line with an agreement negoti- ated with the Truman administra- tion in 1951 at a time of congres- sional inaction on a joint project for the shipping facilities.

CANALS ON U.S. SIDE

Last month. however. Congress finally acted on the joint project. specifying that the canals are to be built on the U.S. side. Congress appropriated about $100,000,000 for the work.

Prime Minister St. Laurent said May 6 Canada is still ready to do the navigation work alone. and that remains the government attitude.

Apart from the location of the 27-foot canals. points to be ironed out include the question of tolls, division of costs and a timetable for the construction of the shipping facilities. These will be somewhat slower than the hydro works.

On the electricity side. the On- tario Hydro-Electric Power Coni- mission and the New York State Power Authority agreed Monday on a construction schedule for power, setting an objective of power sales in four years.

1"rcIiminai'y work on navigation has been in progress for some time. but it is expected actual con- struction on this phase will be per- _
