(Continued from P/ago 1)

Hogan. manager of Island Furriers.

I-lokan told the Council that out- side furrlera were coming into the City and taking away a lot of money as the result o! their sales without leaving any through taxes or rental expenses. Be felt it was not fair to those Island firms who "B" III-rt of the business y o! the Province and who. as citiz- enaspeut their money where they made it. l-le understood that Hall- fax and Moncton had devised City legislation to curb the practice. Coun. Lowther said he was in "X1111 Sympathy" with the views “Dressed by Mr. Hogan. The City Clerk, however, had received in- formation recently from the City Councils of Halifax and Moncton that they were unable to prevent the outside furriers from coming in. the reason being that those outside furriers were careful to be sponsored by local firms.

MI- Hogan said he appreciated the Council's problem. He did not mind so much those local ﬂrms. who were legitimate sellers of furs, bringing in those outside. furrlers. though he considered the practice “Mair. but he did object to furni- ture dealers doing the same thing. By no stretch of the imagination, MI- Hﬂkan said. could a furniture dealer be considered a fur dealer. Mayor MacDonald assured Mr. Hogan that the Council would do all’ in its power to look after the complaint which, he said, he con- sidered to be a just one.

Coun. M. A. Farmer, chairman of the Police Committee. said he would recommend a new police patrol be purchased for the Police Oepartment and that, in future. the patrol wagon be "turned in" after a year's use and a new one acquired. He believed this would be a. more economical arrangement than the present one of keeping an outworn machine and paying heavy ‘repair bills for its upkeep. The present patrol wagon had travelled 63,000 miles since June, i046. He also recommended that the whole police force of 15 men be provided with new uniforms since they had not received any last year.

Relief Expenditures

The question of relief was

brought up by Coun. Farmer also So far as he knew, there was no provision in the City statutes for relief expenditures. Some people, he said. were under the impres- sion that because the City had re- ceived some money from the Pro- vincial Government last year, it should be spent for relief. But no money was given the City which d.ici not belong to it. The $18,000 was merely a recompense for the surrender of corporation and other taxes to the Government. The same argument could apply to the $14,000 also received from the Provincial Government. It had nothlng..to do with relief pay- ments. The situation would likely be all right during the coming summer, Coun. Farmer said, but he thought preparations should be made for next winter. It was a triple mat- ter, possibly, of responsibility by the Dominion, Provincial, and municipal Governments.

Coun. E. C. Johnstoue said the Market building was clean and the rest rooms in good condition. There was constant supervision of 'the rooms between the hours of 9:30 and 5:30 and the Provincial Government had been aa,.,.1‘OlC~EIEd with the object of having the Clov- ernment shsra any expense involv- ed inksupervision after those hours.

Coun. Ipwther said the City would not be petitioned for relief as frequently as it is did this Pro- vtnce have Mothers’ Allowances A great number of requests for reli came from mothers. .- '

Coun. S. F. Doyle said it had been drawn to his attention that last winter, when the search for the "fire bug" was on, several pol- lcemen had spent many of their off-duty hours on the lookout for the "bug." The. time spent in searching for that person, Coun. Doyle said, could have been more pleasantly spent by the men at their homes. It was his opinion they should be paid for the extra work.

Coun. Farmer said he understood that the men were "given time of!

during the search." He thought

that paying them would establish an undesirable precedent.

Traffic Lights

Au estimate from the Northern Electric Company of $27,000 as partial cost for the installation of electric traﬂic lights was shelved for the time being. Coun. Farmer, who submitted the estimate, agreed with the Mayor that the expend- iture could not be considered at present.

Before the meeting adjourned, the following resolutions were pass-

"That the oiIer of Miss Power and Mr. William Power to grant lauds to the City to enable the extension of Brighton Place north- wardiy from York Lane and Ad- miral Street. being approximately 25 feet, or half the width required, be accepted and that a plan and conveyance of the land offered be prepared and that a similar offer of Mrs. Goodwill, conditional on the full opening of such extension be acknowledged and ﬁled pending Mr. Piatts making available the remaining land necessary to com- plete the project

"That the basic rate for labour emiploycd in the City of Char- lottetown shalLbe at the rgte of 55 cents per hour.

"That Mr. George Abbott be conﬁrmed in his position as Asses- sor's Clerk at his present salary.

"That Miss Ruby Reynolds be conﬁrmed in her position as sten- ographer and cashier at her pres- ent salary. -

“That the tender committee be instructed to call for tenders for the supplying of a new police pat- rol vehicle, and to request that tenderers quote a tentative plan of annual replacement of the vehicle offered."

Street Dept. Report

The text of Coun. J-D. Stewart's report on the work of the Street Department follows:

"The Streets Department has been exceptionally busy during the past month, hauling refuse, ice. etc, opening catch basins, clearing intersections, etc. However, not- withstanding the great amount of snow and the severity of the win- ter, there were not large freshets as in other winters and the win- ter's ice has cleared over very well.

"The severeness of the winter has caused more than usual dam- age to our asphalt streets and our

catch basins.

"We have already started repair- ing the catch basins and anticip- ate our street patching not later than the ﬁrst week in May, to en- able this work to be completed be- fore the busy tourist season is upon us.

"In order to set up our lsphalt plant we must purchase o. boiler and steam engine; with the ac- quiring of these two pieces of equipment we will be ready topave Kent Street between curb and side- walk frorn Queen to Prince, and also to widen North River Road if the Council so desire.

"Considerable ashes has been hauled and placed on our streets and with the use of the split log drag streets are now fit for traﬂlﬁ which otherwise would have been impassable. However. a. scarcity of the right type of ashes has cur- tailed our eiIorts in this regard-

“The street broom and flusher have also been used to great ad- vantage and with weather permit- ting we will start immediately to clean and haul the dirt from our streets.

“The ramp at the entrance to the ice at Richmond Street has been salvaged and this lumber will be used to patch wooden sidewalks.

"It has been necessary to shut oﬂ the lower end of Kent Street between Edward and Fitzroy. The frost coming out of the ground in this area. has made it dangerous to motor traffic. This is a low swampy area and notwithstanding the ﬁll of broken stone, gravel, etc, in this area. the street is 5110118)’.

“The cement mixer and roller have been overhauled under the supervision of Mr. Sam Crockett: also the sweepers, carts, cans and street barrels have been repaired and painted.

"Just as soon as is possible, we will widen York Lane and we hope also to be able to extend Brighton Place to Admiral Street while we are doing this work-

"At the next meeting of our Street Committee, we will discuss what concrete sidewalks are to be laid and bring in a recommenda- tion to the Council for their ap- proval."

Fire Dept. Report

The report of Coun. PE. Hol- land, on theﬁvlre Department was as follows: _

"We held a number of meetings of our Committee. also the full Fire Board Committee, also a number of discussions on fire matters with Mr. Beer, Secretary Fire Under- writers Association.

"The considered opinion of your Committee was that a City Fire Marshal should be employed prim- arlly in a clean-up and fire pre- vention capacity, more particularly
