Hon. Dr. MacMtlllan inquired if there would be s saving effected by issuing debentures rather than keeping overdrafts.

»-Hon. Mr. Dennis said that Pre- mier Campbell was correct but maintained that the bill dealt only w the regulation of agricultural products vylthin the Province.

THE CHARI-QTTETQWN GUABQLAN

Budget

Mr. savillo resuming his debate on the budget said his purpose In speaking on Prohibition was not to discuss the amendment calling tor a plebiscite as that would be decided by the elect/on.

He dealt with the administra- tl0n of the Prohibition Act Ind traced the establish-mam o! the law in this novinoe.

He declared that there never was a law on the statute books of the Province which came before the electors so often, and cited the many Bllebiscites which always re- sulted the retention of the Pro- hibition LEW. In 1027 the Conser- vative party made it a plank in their platform and it was g contribut- ing factor in their defeat, he oon- tinned.

During all the time the lww has been in force it. has never been repealed although beer and wine had often been advocated, he said.

Cause of Smuggling

In the early days of the Pro- hibition Law, druggists and doctors were allowed to keep a. certain amount. of liquor on hand, he said. Doctor's prescriptions made liquor too dear and smuggling crept in.

The speaker mentioned the large scale manufacture of moonshine within the Province.

"The trouble now is that. too many young people think they are sick," he said. He did not agree h people who thought the is- suing of doctors prescriptions should be greatly curtailed and added that. men who have been accustomed to liquor for many years- would suffer if suddenly de- prived of the liquor.

“I would not vote for taking the power out of the doctor's hands" to administer liquor to these peo- ple, but would not want. to sup- port any measure which would as- SISL yOIIIIg people getting into the condition where they would re- quire alcohol every clay.

He appealed m he medical pro- femion to use consideration when

issuing prescriptions to young people. , Speakin of the enforcement of

the Prohi itlon Law, he said that. he was never enamored by the Prohibition Commission. He had favored doin away with the com- mission as e Attorney General was responsible for the enforce-

‘ The enforcement officers are also responsible, he continued and pub- lic opinion must. be behind the law I also to assist in enforcing it.

He declared that people who: know where the law is broken should give the information to the Attorney General.

Tho number of books in the 11b- rary is 50.228, st present.

He explained that. the Carnegie Library grant: we; discontinued tn 1936 and the Government has car- ried on the library at. the mini- mum of expenditure.

The llbrsuw has advanced and the number of volumes Increased.

Credit Unions

Hon. Mr. McGuigan said there were 44 credit. Unions in the Prov- ince and they were steadily in- creasi . He outlined the amount of bus ness being done by the Credit Unions and sdvocated that the books of the Credit Unions should be gone over often by the [auditor to guard against any osses.

In reflflrd to Adult Education the speaker said that. $2.000 had been voted for this purpose during the
