(Yonclude IV- 3- Budget Debate

Criticism of the forced bond is- sue by the Stewart Government, re- peatedly made in the Draft Ad- dreQ debate now in progress in the Legislature, proved on Opposition boomerang y , when lion. G. ﬁhelton Sharp, Minister of Public Works and Highways, revealed the financial position of the Province an the defeat of the Les Govern- ment in Jilly. m1, and the fact that one-half percent in interest charges on the million-dollar over- draft which the outgoing Liberals left at the Bank of Montreal could have boon saved had debentures been issued in the preceding June, the fnot that they were not so is- sued being duo to the Lea Govern- ment's desire to conceal the true financial situation from the elec- tort.

m: sharp replied effectively to several other statements o! Op- position members in the course of his speech yesterday. lie was fol- lowed by three Liberal representa- tives, Messrs L. R. Allen, H. H. Cox. and Thane A. Campbell, K.C., the latter moving the ndyournment at 6 color-k.

Continuing the debate when the House resumed yesterday after- noon, Hon. Mr. Sharp answered the criticism made by the Opposition members regarding the Govern- ment's alleged responsibility for not retaining the services of Mr. George Barbour when the Royal Canadian Moinited Police were es- tablished in the Province. "This Government," Mr. Sharp explain- ed, "had absolutely nothing to do, either with retaining or firing Ir. Barbour. In fact we strongly ne- commended him to the i" ‘ slon. Ha could have accqited the position but refused on account of the seniority which he claimed he was entitled to by some years of mrvice in the Provincial Police. He resigned on his own account. The Oovemment was very sorry to see him go, but the matter was en- tirely in his own hands and he might have remained hucl m» so desired.

"So far as the Mounted Police are corwornod. they have carried on law enforcement in this Prov- ince absolutely free frmn any dio- tation by this Government. We have never at any time suggested '0 IIISDBcI-Or Fripps or the officers llnderhllllthlthcgoaagyintha enforcement of any particular Act. We have nevar at any time eug- gested 0r iaued a ticket of leave for some of the Jail prisoners that the hon. member from Rustico (Mr. LePage) mentions, except on the recommendation of the Prohibi- tion Oornmision. The manner of the Prohibition law enforcement has been entirely under the ROMP. and the Commission, and this Government has at no time interfered in any way f0 make that law less effective. And there is not a question in the minds of the better thinking people of this Province that law enforcement. so far as the Prohibition Act is con- cerned, has been effective, and that we are getting somewhere.

l-‘lah Marketing Problem

Reference was next rnade by m». Sharp to the statement by Mr. Le- Page regarding the loss of our lishermrnr. markets for mackerel and cod. The same condition ap- plied to Nova Scotla a-nd othm‘ parts of this continent, as well__as to Norway and Newfoundland. wherever fish are caught and sold. Shortly after the War, conditions were such among the companies that formerly took our frozen and fresh fish, that they were compel- led to close and the result was that our market; dropped away. ﬁshery concerns like Macbenrrs at Sourls, Myrlcks, at Tignlsh, and the Gordon Pew Company and others can certainly fumish mar- kets, just as well as a marketing organization, if these mnrlrew were available. The trouble is that fish prices have been low everywhne and our fishermen have suffered as n consequence.

One of the Opposition epeakq-s had referred to the lobster indu- try as showing signs of improve- ment, and had suggested that something might be done to in- crease production. "In my mind,‘ said Mr. Sharp, "and I have had twenty-five years lobster fishing, to increase the lob- ster fishery in this Province at the present time would ultimately lead to its depletion. We are today get- ting the maximum amount, so that we cannot hope to increase the in- dustry." The only thing that might be done, he added, was along the lines discussed at a conference which he attended, namely, some method 0f Dominion wide adver- tising whcreby the eating of fresh fish might be encouraged, and the fishery production of the Marl- tirne Provinces prominently dia- played in attractive advertise- ments, with a view to increased consumption.
