Train Service

OTTAWA. March 20-(Speciali- In the Senate this atternoon Sen- ator J. P. McIntyre called on the Government to persuade the Can- adian National Railway: to hook the Charlottetown-Montreal pull- man car to the Ocean Limited in- stead of to the Scoliun as their practice iii at present.

He complained that the Scotlan is almost invariably late on arriv- al in Montreal in the mornings. One effect of this chronic late- ness. Senator llfclniyre said. is that passengers for Ottawa miss the train leaving Montreal at 8.55 in the mornings and have to wait until 4.30 in the afternoons. The change he recommended. the Sen- not disrupt the service and could be made at little if any additional expense to the railway company.

"At present", the Senator said. "the Charlottetown pullman is switched at Moncton to the Scot- lan which is half to thrce-qunr- tors of an hour behind the Ocean Limited. I see no reason why this Pullman should not he switched to the Ocean Limited which ar- rives at Montreal at 7.15 in ample time to make connections for Oil- iiwa and points west."

Compensation for Maritime:

Senator Mclnlyre said he did not believe there would he very strong objections in the Mari- time: to construction at cost to all Canada of the St. Lawrence aeaway. He was inclined to be- lieve that what was beneficial to one part of the nation would prob- ably bc eventually beneficial to the country as ii whole.

He indicated. however. that he felt the Maritime: should receive some form of compensation for their support of this tremendous- ly costly project to be built with Ontario and Quebec as its chief beneficiaries.

This compensation. he suggest- ed. could very well take the form of support of power developments in the Maritime Provinces by means of capital grants. made by the Federal Government to aid rural electrification in Prince Ed- ward Island. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Capital grants of this kind, together with a federal subsidy on power produced and sold in the Maritlmes. hel said. would result in II rapid spread of electricity to Maritime farms. It would encourage the building of additional power plants and go far to defray the cost of trans- mission lines In a network over the three Maritime Provinces.

In an overall electrification plan. Senator Mclntyre said. Prince Edward Island would be linked up with its two sister provinces on the east coast.

Senator Mclntyre spoke of the high quality of bacon hogs pro- duced in Prince Edward Island and reminded the Upper House that proportionately. the province is a greater producer of bacon hogs than any other in Canada.

He said thati the reason there was always a, disparity was that three quarters of the tax rental agreement money from the Govcrmncnt 0! Canada! was not in by December 31 but thati it was just waiting to meet the ila-i biiities of which the Opposition complained. in zidiiiiion the money from the Temperance commission was not paid at that time, but that only meant that the Province had approximately 53 million with which to meet liabilities.

Cpl. D.R. George, R C.M P. had: investigated the matter and I charge of irregularities and had' travelled to Halifax and New-I (oundland as well as to various) parts of this Province. His report, showed no reason for the laying of any charges against the manager or the Eskimo. "If action had been indicated it would have been lair-i en". the Attorney General said in: remarking that his department” never made any distinction be- tween people accused. ,.

He called the Revised Statutes a "monumental task" to go throughl 175 years of statutes. eliminating many End combining the rest into two volumes. He said there was a tremendous amount of work in streamlining them by dropping. constantly recurring and unneces-1 5Rl'.V phrases.

Bond Issue

Regarding his recent visit to New York to negotiate the sale of this Province's bond issue he re- minded the House that tho Lemu- M the Opposition had stated they had to go to New York ,to lose 5100.000 on the deal. "That is a re- sponsible statement by the appgy- eiitly responsible Leader of the Opposition."

Mr. Darby then quoted figures showing that the bonds or gm; Province brought a better return than those of Ontario one issue of which sold at 4.71 per cent and a later one at 4.21 per cent and or New Brunswick whose latest issue sold at 5.06 per cent. "Our iasuc cost only 4.20 per cent.".

He said it was not easy to get Very for at Ottawa but that they always did the best they could. He was not ashamed of their presen- tation lo the Capital and had worked hard for what they got. He thoukht it was a good deal for the Province and had brought g gr-egg. ly increased return.

The 02.9 million was the guaran- teed minknum the Province would receive, but the differncca in the vaiue of the gross natural product between the no billion of ms and the estimated :22 billion of 1953 would bring our receipts almost to 8.000.000 under the new tax rent- al aucement.

fie objected to the fact that ol- tawa always made the some mis- lake of gearing its grants to tha Province on the basis of population rather than on Government re- lponaibility.
