In view of the question which has arisen in the

provincial legislature over the Migratory Birds Treaty between the United States and Britain it is interesting to itote that the question catne up recentlyl in the Sttpreme (`ourt of the United States. Ingivlitg, the 'opinion of the court, Mr. Justice Holmes said in part that this was a bill in equity brought by the State of Missouri to prevent a game wa1'den of the: United States front attempting to enforce the Migra- ory Birds Act ofJul\' 8,1918 and the regulations made by the Secretar_\' of Agriculture in pttrsuance of the satne.

A motion toi dismiss was sustained by the District Court on the' ground tltat tlte act of Congress was constitutional. The State appealed. '

-The judge explained the history of attd the reas-

ons for tlte treaty between the United States and Great ltritaitt, proclaimed by the president on De- cember S, lillti. The treaty stated that tnany spec ics of birds in their annual migrations traversed malty pat'ts of the United States attd of Canada that were ot' _tg't'eat value as a source of food and itt destroy- ing insects iitjttrious to vt-getatiott bitt were in dang- er ot' cxtertttittatiott tltrottglt lack of adequate pro-| tectiott and agt'eetl that tlte two powers would take, or propose to their lawntiakittg bodies, the necesssary nit-;tsitt'es tor carrying out the treaty. The above men- tiotted Act \vas accord_ittgl_v passed on July 8, 1918 to give eil'et-t`to the treaty. This Act prohibited the kill- ittg."'eapttti'ing or selling ot' any of tlte migratory birds ittt°lutle;l in tlte terms oi' tlte treaty except as pertttitted by regulations compatible with those terms. The question before the court was whether the treaty and statute were void as an interference with the rights reserved to tlte states, The cottclud- ing paragraph of tlte discussion sums the Whole case up as follows:

“Here a ttational interest of very nearly the first

magttitttde is involved. It can be protected only by tial iottal action in eottcert with that of another power. Tlte subject matter is otily transitorily within the State attd has tto pt-rmattettt habitat therein. But for the treaty attd statttte there soon might be no birds for any powers to tical with. We see nothing in the Cott- sittttion tltat compels tlte Government to sit ‘by while 2. t`ood sttpply is cut _off and the protectors of our for~ ests and our crops are destroyed. It is not sufficient to rely upon the States. The reliance is vain, and, were it otherwise, the question is whether the United States is forbidden to act. We are of opinion that the treaty attd statute must be upheld." ,

If the taxation measure now' slowly passing

through the legislature has no other effect--after it has got through with the taxpayers--than develop- ing the sytnpatliies of the militant legislators it will not have been inflicted in vain. The sympathy ex- pressed by the Liberate members for the poor tax- payers whom they are obliged to thus afflict is really pathetic, often sufficient to bring tears from the eyes even of a politician. They would, they declare, make the tax lighter, if they could; they would take off one of the three different poll taxes, if they could for they know how heavily these various burdens will fall up- on the poor, but etc., etc.

If, instead of this maudlin sympathy, some

member on the government side of the House would explain to the “poor taxpayers” why it was necessary to plunge so heavily at the first jump, why it was necessary to make the tax burden so extremely heavy, it would be more highly appreciated by the taxpayers. This has not, so far, been explained. No estimate has been given of the revenue required, no account has been given of the financing, the con- tracts entered into, or the jobs let by the government during their four months in office. No idea has been given of the new ofiices to be created that will necessi- tate a tax of such proportions as is proposed.

They have given only one estimated guess, the

extra expenditure on schools and that has been shown to be something like $70,000 too big and they haye not contradicted it. Some explanation on ‘these points would go a long way fttrther than the wordy

“Preparing the farmers for taxation". This was

the favorite headline in the Patriot previous to the last election. Every move of the Arsenault Govern- ment was translatetl by the Liberal organ as a “prep- aration” for additional taxes. Had the organ prepar- ed the farmers for what its party has since imposed, instead of imposing it without preparation, as they have done, the Liberal party would today be enjoy-` ing th_e co_mfortable shades of opposition instead of the blistering “seats of the mighty," which they have 'made red hot for themselves.

Hut this does not cover the act-

ual increase. Farms hitltcrto have been taxed at very low valuations. They ntust now be assessed at “their ACTUAL CASH VALUE." The Assessor itliall not “adopt its tt critt-rlon ot' value tht- price lor which the.sttltl property would st-ll by auction, or at it t'orced sale." That would not be blg enough per- haps for taxation purposes. it must be what the Assessor considers the actual cash value. Then tho fnrntor must ittuke.tt return as to its itclttttl value. und il' he wlltully underval- ues his property to the extent ot' it ten dollar blll he becoittes liable to it penalty ol' "not less than twenty tlollttra and not exceeding one lttiiidrt-d dollars,” and in ndditiott "one ltundred per. cent." adds-d to his tax bill, with luiprlsoninent i`or non-pttyntent. The Governntent claim is that this increase will only ttntount to about $50,000 on l`nrm lands. llut let any eoltttnott

'st-nse school boy higure it out. Our ,island is called the “Million ucrtt

It`arnt." Lands have been selling nt l'roni $400 an acre riownwmtls. Av- erage one million acrt-.s at $50 tin at-re and you have $50,000.00tl. This ut one half ol' one per. cent. ri tux ot' $25tl,tllltl. Every fnrnter ln the province has u lair idea of land vitlut-s. If our iigurt-s, either of quantity or value are loo ltlph, then cut. both down to the lowest point and see where the tax bill lands. Instead ni' double the prett- ont taxes it can easily mount itp to five times what the tarmer pays to- day.
