over the Royalty and the school taxes there. Our Government has nothing to do with Royalty school taxes. But I do know that at least one candidate was in East Royalty doing what he could to stir up dlssention and school meeting got a sound beat- ing for his pains. which does not auger well for hl.s standing there on election day. Dr. McMillan says taxes are up 850 per cent-the people will know if that is the truth. They will also know what kind of public schools they would

now have if the doctor had his way. Turnover Tn "Then he raises the Turnover-

Tax bogle. we have already stated a turnover tax is not contemplated. It would require legislation first and no move towards this ha. been made by anyone. The Turnover Tax proposal requires an amend- ment to the constitution of Can- ads which certain provinces want.

Five provinces of Canada now have direct sales tax. We have such a tax here for Liquor and

Tobacco only and Dr. McMillan. himself, if you please, was chair- man of the committee who advis- ed it. I guess probably the best way to silence this talk is to quote Premier Frost of Ontario, the only Conservative .- excuse rne-Pro- gressive Conservatives-preniler in Canada.

He stated according to the Con- servative Globe and Mail issue April 18, 1951 that talthough Ontario does not want the right to levy an indirect sales tax it. will not stand in the way of its being made possible. To oppose this amendment, which some Provinces have requested might be to jeop- ardize the chances of getting agree- ment on a formula for handling constitutional changes generally. In the case of the proposed amendment, which would permit the provinces to use an indirect sales tax. unanimous consent has been required in the absence of any other formula. Suppose one of the provinces vetoed the proposal. That is the position we are in at the momcnt.'

"I suppose if Mr. Bell and Dr. McMillan got in and went to OI- tawa they would veto the other provinces like Drew and Duplessls did in 1945! This bold talk of mak- ing the Dominion Government do this and do that is sheer nonsense. They have never, in the local House, shown any of the skill and power they boast they would cx- ert at Ottawa.

Cost Plus Contracts

"They say the lie they stated in the House last Mnrch that ill- teen percent is allowed on it cost plus contract was not denied. Well. I'll deny it now. One cannot keep up denying all their misstate- ments. Where is the basis for the false statement that Beech Grove Inn cost 3500.000? Where is the basis for the 310000.000 cost of the Trans-Canada road?-which we estimated at 1 3-4 millions ex- clusive of bridges. Why. the Trans-Canada is actually cheaper

by far for us than a road we

"So they are going to make Ot- tawa erect a marine slip. when that is built it will be the Liberals that will build it and we need it badly.

"Also the Eskimo which is ser- vicing the Island faithfully until the new company takes over. She will have her third trip to New- foundlnnd before the last of April and she will continue to serve Prince Edward Island even though lawyers hired by private concerns continue to argue as they are paid.

"llas anyone noted a construct- ive idea in the speeches of Bell. McMillan and Mathleson? What they say is mostly what they would do at Ottawa. if elected.

"Take Dr. MoMillan's state- ment of -.vhat1ie got in subsidies. He capitalized them at 5 per cent and says it amounts to five and a. half millions from Ottawa. Well let us capitalize what we got and it amounts to sixty millions. Those nre foolish figures we wouldn't- talk about. It looks to me as if the Doctor is at his wits end and Doctor Dougsn has him punch drunk and on the ropes.
