Mr. Stevens declared it was the duty of the Government to order the railway management to make j a probe of the Coldwell exposure. | and he charged that "officers of the railways have projected them- | selves into a political controversy and have used influences which the?! were not justified in using."

Returning to the Kingston situa- tion which last Friday evening provoked a stormy sitting and brought a burning speech from‘ the Prime Minister. Mr. Bennett] referred to the statement made the same evening by the Minister of National Defence, Hon. Ian Mac- kenzie, regarding coal delivered to a provincial institution at Kings- trlitn by John Sowards, of that C Y. '

Mr. Mackenzie had read to the House an affidavit in which it was declared quantities of coal were

Kingston coal and cement debate which occupied most of the after- noon. Mr. Rogers charged Mr. Bennett with applying “the slow poison of defamation" against himself; alleged that it was six weeks ago that Mr. Bennett be- gan his suggestions that Mr. Rogers connived at political patronage at Kingston. and that it was only last Friday that the Conservative leader absolved the Minister of Labor from charges of personal responsibility.

"My right honorable friend has a dual personality," declared Mr. Rogers. "For the public spirited statesman I have nothing but the highest respect, for but his other self, for the vindictive partisan, I can only say that I have a mix- ture of sorrow and contempt."

"I am obliged to the honorable gentleman for his lecture," said Mr. Bennett.

"It will not be any good," a Lib- eral member interjected.”

“It will not do me any good." continued Mr. Bennett. "It will be wasted on me. ‘The honorable gentleman (Mr. Rogers) has been . so accustomed to lecturing that he undertakes now to lecture me with respect to my conduct in Parlia- ment. 1-lis great claim to fame is delivered in excess of the bin can- as a. biographer of the Prime Min- acity at the institution. but Mr. ister and as a very competent sec- Bennett today told the House that i rr-tary."

provinces that. apart from Quebec. in

Prince Edward Island has the low-, est debt reduction of any province in the Dominion.

Hon. Mr. MacArthur: Small farms.

Hon. Mr. Sinclair: My honour- able friend says "small farms.” 1f he will look at the average debt per case he will find that for New‘ Brunswick it is $1,600 odd and for Prince Edward Island $2.700 odd. So if our farms are smaller they must be worth a. great deal more. i

There is good reason why the‘ debt reduction in the province of| Quebec should be lower than in any l other province. There the Provin- cial Government has established a Farm Loan Board, and the repres- entative of that board sits in at the meetings of the board of re- view, and when an amicable ad- justment is arrived at he advances to the farmer sufficient money to Day his liability, which. I am in-' formed, ln many instances exceeds 75 per cent of the value of the property. They give him that money at 2 1-2 per cent. I should say the loan is amortized on a 39- year plan at 4 per cent per annum. The Quebec Farm Loan Board has paid out $3,000,000 of provincial funds to the farmers under that plan, in co-operation with the board of review under this Act. I think honourable members who were in close touch with conditions when this Act was first introduced will remember that at the outset it was contended that the same principle which is now in force in the prov- '

lnce of Quebec would be applied by ,5; tho mggtjlng whim

e. Farm Loan Board in all the pro- vinces. I 1 would point out further that in making the reductions the board ‘ of review in Prince Edward Island] has in no case reduced the prin- l cl al money on any secured debt wthout the consent of the ere-- ditor, except where the secured debt has been obtained by a merchant selling goods to a farmer over a period of years without an account- ing. charging 8 to l0 per cent in- terest, compounded annually, and thQn getting a mortgage to cover the debt. In that case, I under- stand. the board did take the lib- erty of reducing the over-due mort- , gage interest. Almost invariably it has reduced the mortgage interest to 5 per cent, and in many cases extended the time, to the benefit perhaps of the unsecured creditors: I hat is, by requiring the applicant to apply a portion of his interest on his secunxi loan and another portion on the unsecured loans each year for a period of years be- fore having to pay the principal on

his secured loan.

As a result of that policy in Prince Edward Island the reduc- tion of secured loans has been 11.15 per cent; in Nova Scotia 29.40 per cent; in New Brunswick 28.25 per cent; in Quebec, 13.38 per cent; in Ontario "i per cent; in Manitoba 38.57 L.III4; in Sas- katchewan 33.1l per cent; in Al- berta 36 per cent; in British Colum- bia 3529 per cent; or an average for all of Canada of 29.93 per cent.

I think it can be fairly said that. the administration of the Act in Prince Edward Island has been carried on with fairness to secur- ed creditors and as far as possible also to the farmer debtors.

Several honourable senators have severely criticized the cost of ad- ministration of the Act in Prince likiward Island. The explanation is that the condition in Prince Ed- ward Island is different from what it is in almost all the other pro- vinces. We have. as well as secur- ed loans against farmers who have taken advantage of the Act. manyl small creditors-merchants, dealers of all kinds. men who have advanc- ed money on loans and such like- and it is not uncommon to have from five to ten unsecured credi- tors attend each meeting of the

creditors have a lawyer in r es- ent them. and where the boa sits down to hear representations from one secured creditor and ten 0r eleven unsecured the case cannot be d of in a few minutes. Very rarely are there few- er than six unsecured creditors in each debtor. and in some eases they number from twelve to fifteen. In those circumstances the board of ‘review must consider the position of every creditor, and it does well if it d of six or seven cases each day. I am mid by the ad- lministrator of the Act that in the other provinces there are not so many unsecured creditors in each ,case, and that usually the principal creditor is secured.
