Review By icontinued from pageai ....j.a.a.-.a- eight years since Confederation-

Dealings at Ottawa

"Tlicn Mr. Bcll said the Gov- ernment fared badly in their deal- ings with Ottawa. Well. that is one for the book! In 1941 the late Premier Campbcll swapped the taxes for the period April 1st, 1042 to March 31st. 1047 for a yearly benefit in the Province of nearly half a million dollars. It was war- time and the proper thing to do and we be-nefitted nearly iiaif a million yearly. in 1945 a plan for the succeeding five years was proposed-an eliiiboratc plan iii- volvlng many propositions such as family allowances and extens- iu assistance to Health and Wei- fare problems: The convention in 195 was brokcn up by the then Premier of Ontario and by the Quebec Prenilcr. But the fiscal part of the plan was carried out by the other seven Provinces and Prince -Edward Island not only got what the other Projnces got hut a. special consideration of over six hundred thousand dollars year- ly The .-total ycnriy payments since April 1. 1047 has far exceeded the

minimum payment. namely: 82.- 100.000. and now amounts to over three million dollars annually. in- stead of the 5647.000. annually rcceived before 194.2.

”ln addition. by Federal logis- iallon the family allowances were out into operation bringing us rt-srly about 2 1-4 million dol- lars. Also the health and welfare prngrltn has hr,-en advanced until we now get about 1 1-4 millions niinually and more will come.

"We also get a considerable arant for Technical Education. so inst, already. the proposals of 156 have been carried out to the rxtent of nearly seven million dollars a year. Again; an agree- ment is in process of being midi-' for the five year period atartinil April lat. 1952. one of the first nimcments proposed is pensions of 84000 for everyone over 70 iears of age; and pensions for needy persons from 66 lo 80 Ye!"

inclusive. Should Mr. Bell or my- self handle the negotiations? That is the most important. qucsiloiigln this election. i

Potato ,iuacs

"Now potntoca: Mr. Bell thinks the Federal Goveriimc-iii should pay farmers 09 cents a bushel. The ex'pel'ienct- of the last support price proved farmers did not get all the bonus. This year the prob- lem is being cautiously approached and the Provincial Government will bonus potatoes going to starch factories nt a price of 22 cents a bushel from the starch manufacturers and a maximum bonus of 2 cents more from the government. The Island Potato Board is in control of the ship- inenis. This will. we think. set a pattern for prices for the balance of the season and the Island Gov- ernment expects to be reimbursed by the Federal Government. This is the manner in which apple pro- ducers were reimbursed last year and it appears to be a fair method to secure the money for the actual producers.

"Then his livestock policy. He slys we can keep 100.000 more cattle. Any farmer can give an im- mediate nnswcr to that one. Shall we bring in 300000 tons of hay yearly at a cost of Is6.000.000 at the lowest--to say nothing of about a ton of feed Nearly -for each one. or a total of 100.000 ions of feed costing about five million more? ioo.oco cattle would cost 20 millions as priccs. now stand.

It might be practical to attend and feed bet.t.i-r what. we have now and avoid costly impnrintions. It might be well to promote more dnirying. It might he won in quit selling young stock for beef and use more fertility to increase hay and feed. This the Government is doing in every way possible. For example. in .iune this Yen? the veterinarians in the Province will be increased in number. They will he bonuaed to go to rural districts and veterinarian service can be obtained for 36.00 a visit. There will be no extra charge because you live in long way from the vet- erinary doctor. '

GOTTABE

., GRIDLEYJNE sriii. HAVE VITAL . DUSINES

"Mr. Bell's platform has not yet been finalized, he says. but "farm- ers and ilahermen's support and rehabilitation policy on a large scale is planned." He will propose that funds be provided to fanrners and fishermen: long txvrm loans to purchase livestock and I ,uipmenl. buildings and even land. of course all that is now necessary is to go to the banks and the Federal Gov- ernment has such a plan in force now. Mr. Bell's suggestion may be that anyone can get such a lodn, but don't let yourself believe it. You must have credit or eise- the Government would go broke. on a free for all loaning policy. such as the Leader of the opposition pro-

poses.

"He mentions an audit. Our Government has lutely completed an external audit by the most competent auditors available in Canada.

"The Leader of tlic Opposition

says iie will not build a mile of road here and there but will have a road policy. He would find, if he is successful in the Second Dist- rict of Queens, that he would be compelled to rebuild the road the Oonservativesvbuilt in 1935. and at a cost to the Provlncc, mile for mllc, equal in the cost of the new Trans-Canada Road. He says he would locate the Trans-Canada road and finalize the route after full and public discussion. He would find that the only people he has to please is the Federal De- partment of Rcsourt-es and De- velopment. who will see that the agreement already enter- ed into is adhered to. or else the payment of half the cost is not forthccrning. l

"lie says the West River Bridge will he built. He said that before the last election. and I think, nlso included the Brighton Bridge, Why leave the latter out now? And where is the West River Bridge to cross? The people of New Haven and the people of west River know who is likely to look after them. They can see what is com- ing now. niid New Haven knows the Government's intentions re- specting a hard surface this year.

"Mr. Bell will provide assistance for outlying districts to obtain electi-icitv. In a previous talk he has scoffed at the eight million dollar program-i of the Liberals. It is not the policy of the Liberals to give out grants-in-aid. We cannot afford it. our policy is to clear all obstacles out of the way so that llncs can be built and the people pay for them. The extension of electricity is going forward rapidly in complete control by the Gov-

ernment through the Board of Public Utilities. School Text Books

"Mr. Bell will also provide free text books to school children. We do not believe in that policy. We provide 320.000 yearly as a bonus on school books which is a better plan. Through the Family Allow- ances mothers ure paid to provide clothing and books for children. The policy works because the average school attendance now exceeds 82 percent. whereas once it was as low as 59 percent.

"When the teachers salaries are increased it will be the Liberals who will do it as they always have heretofore. Liberals spend over If million dollars ii year on educat-

on. "Don't let Mr. Bell mislead any- one on pensions. Everyone will get, a 510.00 pension if he is over '10 years of age when the Con- ailtutlon amendment is made at Ottawa this year. Needy people of ago 65 will get a pension also according to their needs.

"But. before i go on I may mic that last year 100 Prince Edward island farmers borrowed over 0600.000 on the terms of the Farm Improvement Loans Act from the banks on Prince Edward Island. if Mr. Bell is also to go into the loan business it would be germane to ask why. Does he want to drive the Federal Government, out of the field? The complete data on the loans can be found in is recent llanaard.

Liberal Candidates

"The roster of Liberal candidates is now complete. New men in the field include William Acorn of Souris. Dr. Bonnell of Murray Riv- er, Frank McNutt in 3rd Princn, E. P. Foley of summerside-a for- mer member, Mayor MacDonald of Charlottetown. Raoul l.ePage of Charlottetown in 2nd Queens and George Kltson. Hampshire. also in 2nd Queens. Three former members, namely: Daniel McRae, l-Ieatherdale: Thomas Linkletter. of Summeraidc; and Carl Delaney, summersidc. have retired.

Not all the candidates obtained their nominations without heavy competition which shows the vig- our of the Liberal Party at the present time. There is ample mat. crial for the selection of a com- petent Government if all candi- dates win their elections.

"It has come to the time when nt least four. possibly five. of the

Government members must give their full time to their Depart, ments. and the others must be quickly available.

office staff and fieidmen. This Department is rapidly expanding and new duties will be added as soon as its personnel can be ex- tended.

"The Departnicnt. of Health and welfare is a full-time job for a Minister. It is the largest spending Department of the Government. "The Department of Industry and Natural Resources is rapidly becoming a job requiring ii full-

time minister. as although not a great deal of money is spent. the work is new. difficult. and

time-consuming. "And. of course, the Premiership is a full-time job. "Departments. like Education. Provincial Secretary. Treasurer. Attorney and Advocate General. can be well handled. most of the time. by efficient deputies. The Minister must be available for de- cisions and must. of cept all responsibilities. "As Premier. I am grateful for the high quality of nominated candidates and hope they will all be elected so that ii good selection of Ministers can bc made.
