the money it wants at five per cent.

MR. J. D. STEWART said that the leader of the Opposition bad asked a very pertinent question, but. no doubt. hnd he known we had such legal lublnary, such a solou, sarong us, as the last gpenk~ el'. he would have had no fears as to the wisdom of launching out In- to any kind of financial undertak- ing that bad his approval. Mr. Saunders rellicules the idea of con- sulting specialists on finance. This is an age oi specialists, said Mr. Stewart. and Mr. Saunders. hc lln- agiucd, would think it a strange procedure for n. man to look for a legal opinion from a layman. The financiers from whom the bor- rowing was to ‘be done were the men to consult.

MR. E. T. HLGGS would like to get down to business. One thing we have heard much of lately was thr- effect of newspaper criticism on the fiuancies 0|’ the province. lie wanted to inform the iiotlse that financiers did not depend on newspaper reports. He would like to see this loan effected not through the expert financiers oaltd money lenders but as an internal loan frolu the people of the province.

HON. F. J .NASH.-—lt. was cust- omary for Opposition members to decry utterances in the Ptltriot re- garding the fluatttres of the pro- vince. A few days ago the Patriot tirade the slaeurent that the pro- vince was halt’ a million dollars worse off than when the 111111111115 went nul of power ln 1911. lie believed this opinion was fully just ifil-(l as would be shown when all lhc accounts are in hand. 510t- witilstantling the Patriot‘! c1‘1l1l>1>1111 of the financial condition under (‘onservativc- rule, it always hcltl up tho good name of the province.

MR. A. E. MCLEAN believed this an opportune tllnc to float a loan, 'l‘ilrotigh the Victory Loan campaign the people had been edu- cated to buy irollds. Ills opinion was that this lUllll could be float- cd at per trt-nl.

' but unless the members were 111'"-

vitlcll, its astral beforehand anti with Acts about to be. discussed progress would certainly he slow and uruch valuable time lost.

HON. J. H. BELL introduced a resolution "that a confcreutrtz should be inrutcrlizrtely called or represen- tatives of the governments of l’. E. island, New Brunswick, and Nova Scolia. in order‘ that a plall truly be formulated for joint. action to press for a settlement of the just ttlfllllls of these provinces against the fctlcral governnrelri."

Mr. Bell went into the subject very exhaustively going over’ 111+- whole argument re these claims and t-tnlterldiug they were just. and reasonable and that the Ft-tieral Government lllul no recourse lull l0 settle theln. lle had great pleasure in moving the restrltltlou.

HON. J. J. JOHNSTON lll Silt‘- outiing the resoluillon regretted that. he had not had sufficient time to go into the question ulore thor- oughly. lieclalntetl it was onc of the most important. matters ever brought before this legislature, lie conteutlell that the time was op- portune for pressing the c|alln< of this province and oi’ the ollll-l- ‘Mm-l time provinces upon the Federal Government. What was now lit-ed- ell. he said, was ctropcrzltiou on the part oi‘ those luterestetl and he felt assured illl‘ claims would be recog- nlzed.

HON. A. E. ARSENAULT con- gratulated Mr. Johnston on his pres (‘lllfllltnl of the case. Hc doubted however that Mr. Johnston had read the restitution before zllllxing his nnlnc to it. as if he had, he would

, scarcely have given it his approval.

He, Mr. Arsenault. bad no intention oi taking up the time of the liouse in dlsct ‘sing the resolution. lie hall hlld occasion to discuss the ques- tion nt very consltiernble length both in this House and elsewhere null he thought that the leader of the Government. should have been generous enough. to have given credit to whom credit was due for. what information he, Mr. Hell, had on the. subject. The gentleman to whom the lender oi the, govern- ment was indebted for all he knew about these claims was the present (‘hlef Justice of this province. lie, Mr. Arsenuult had tbc honor of ac- companying the (llrlef Justice, then Premier, when he presented these claims on behalf of the province at Ottuwn. nnd he wanted to say right here that there Wits not another man in Clrnadn who knew as much about these r-lninls us Chief Jus- tice lllnlhesoll, who, when Premier of this province, first formulated thl-m and presented them at'Ott- awa.
