Prsrnier Jones: "Is there any law against Mayor Houde sitting in Parliament?"

Mr. Maihleson: "No. it still ex-

ists in some cases in the House of Commons: but it is a bad prin- ciple nevertheless. where conflict- ing interests may arise or where it may be suggested that they arise." , Mr. William Hughes. bth Prince: “There is some difference be- tween the action of a Mayor who becomes a " f the Federal House and the action of one who becomes a member of a Provincial l-ioiise, because the City itself is a creature of the Provincial Legisla- ture." i

lion. Mr. Cullen: ‘'I don't think the Mayor and Councillors of Charlottetown should be prohibit- ed from becoming niembe .. of the Legislature when the Mayor and Councillors of other towns are permitted to do so. it is only re- cently ~eince a member of the Town Council ‘of Sumni aide set here." ' ' Mr. Keir Ciel-k:' "This is the Cityr-though: it is an entirely dif- ferent thing."

Mr. Hughes: “l recall when Mr. -7- W- Brennan. who was Mayor of Souris at the time, was advised by the then Attorney General. Mr. J’. J. Johnston. to resign before he norriinsted in a Provincial elec- tion."

Hon. Mr. Cullen: ‘'1 would like to know specifically if Summer slde Councillors are prohibited." Mr. L. H. McFariaiis. 5111 Prince: “No. they are not; but I feel that they should be.‘ I know of one case very close to my district where that has happened in the last few years. I would move that this clause be struck out."

Motion carried.

in connection with Section 2 of the bill._ making it unnecessary to cell a by-election to fill a vacancy occurring within six months before a general election. unless so ordered by a Supreme Court Judge under proceedings instituted by any qualified voter. the promoter said that in the last few years emergencies of this kind had arisen. due to deaths in the Council. sndihere had been a good deal of criticism because by- electlons had not been held. The section carried without further comment.

Tax Collections

"lt was brought to my atten- tion lest y r that there was in this City r l saute on which the Ciy officials saw fit to leave taxes outstanding for over seventeen years. Not one cent of taxes was collected on the property in that time. if that situation continues. the next time this Act -cornea be- fore the House I think it should be amended. They charge inur- eet at 0 per cent on all outstand- ing, bills and they leave these taxes uncoilected.

200 Reedy To Join Esperanto Colony

YARMOUTH. N8. March 26 - (OP) - About I10 persons ‘are ready to sign up for the Esper- anto colony planned by Stanley and Colin Smith. the brothers said here today. .

The two. from Yarrnouiah. Isle of Wight. England. came here as part of their‘ tour in search of a suitable site. No date has yet been set for a start on the colony.

on the property." - ‘ Mr. . . Mat-lileson: ‘They found out by making it the 15th of January that it was impossible to know whether a man had a vote pr not. There is not time enough -to make up the assessment rolls." The section carried. ' Section 4 cf,the bill. which car- ried without discunlon, authorizes the City to close off the eastern portions of Richmond and Syd- ney streeis. as each portion ap- proaches the railway right of way. but only with the consent of the owners of lands abutting on such portions. or otherwise to divert the portions to the advantage of the industries in the locality.

superensaiistion lfunrl

Section 5 empowers the City Council to maintain. administer and implement in any manner deemed expe,d.ienIt a general sup- erannuation schem to provide reasonable allowances upon and after necessary retirement of per- manent employees of the City and benefits for dependents oi any such employees who may die en- titled to such allowance. and to use and apply the funds of the City therefor and to enforce con- tribution thereto by such em- ployees. This section shali be held to ratify and approve anything “properly done in the premises but before the enactment hereof."

it was also stipulated that upon request and at the cost of the City. the Provincial Auditor should from time to time make a suf- ficient audit of all funds. entries and matters pertaining to the su- per nnuatlon scheme.

r. Hughes objected to the lat- ter provision. which hs under- stood had also been "slipped into" the Sewers and Water Comrii'is- sioners Act. He did not think it should be me responsibility of the Provincial Auditor even to make recommendations in matters of this kind.

Attorney General W. E. Darby agreed with Mr. Hughes.‘ At his suggestion the clause was amend- ed to provide thet the City shall from time to time direct “sn ef- ficient audit" of all the funds. etc.. of the scheme.

Dundas Esplanade

0 it

The following additional sec- tion to the bill was moved by Hon. Dr. Machdillanz

“The street or thoroughfare known as Dundas Esplanade con- necting the western terminus of Water Street. being no longer in public use. shall hereafter be closed to traffic and shall cease to be a street or thoroughfare ex- cept for daytime pedestrian tref- flc. provided that this section shall not be taken to authorize erections it now prohibited, between the western side of said Dundee Es- planade and the waterfront."

In explaining the purpose of the section the promoter said the thoroughfare had become a nuis- ance at night because of. care be- ing parked there, of be: bottles being left around and other un- desirable activities. He read the following resolution which had been passed by the City Council at is special meeting on March 22: "Resolved. that the City Coun- cil as a whole has no objection to legislation closing Dundee Es- planade as a thoroughfare other than to daytime pedestrian use. provided that the City Hospital grant is widening of Sydney Street of 10 feet from Hav-iland to Dun- das Eqilsnsde and 30 feet or as determined by the City engineer from there to the water. and that provision be made to prohibit all erections other than ordinary fences in the area between Dun- das and the water."

Dr. MaoMillan stated that these proposals .were quite acceptable to the City Hospital authorities. it is propos “ to landscape this area for the use of the hospital patients. The Department of Ve- terans Atfaira have authority to place up to fifty rooms in the hospital. and at present there are at least thirty veterans in the in- stitution. it is intended to make lye surroundings such as will help patients to recuperate.

"We are quite satisfied that it shall not be closed to pedestrians. but we don't want_ the traffic there because it is a perfect nuisance." Dr. Maclillllen said. ‘'1 would not urge this if i did not think it was for the public good as well as for the good of the many patients we have in the hoqsital.” ‘

Mr. . 1". A. Stewart, lat Queen's. said he had spent most of his boyhood years in this area .and he was very much in fever of the bill.
