Th! People of the Maritime area, Ifuied the Way they have. year in and year out by the Federal Lib- eral Government. are the forgot- ten people of Canada. said Mr. J. Donald Fleming. Progrggpjve con. aervative member of Parliament and candidate for that party in Toronto Eglinton in the June elec- tion, in addressing a public mug. 123 at Central Bcdeque last even-
lZ- ..
when the government during the war was spending billions of dol. lars. when they were locating in- dustries here and there. one would have thought they would have grasped the opportunity to streng. then the Maritime area by locat- ing industries here, but they pass- ed up the opportunity. and during the past seven-year period of )1. armament. when over ten billion dollars have been spent, how much of it has been used in the develop- ment of secondary industry in the Atlantic area. he asked.
"It has been one of my job: in Parliament'.' said Mr. Flem- ing, "to be the critic of the De- partment of Defence Production, and I have pressed that point home on Mr. C-D. Howe, and he can't even tell me whether any contracts have worked through to the Mari- time Provinces."
AVERAGE WAGE
Mr. Fleming said It might be like pouring salt into open wounds to remind the people of the At- lantic area of some hard facts such as the average weekly earn- ings in the Atlantic area. accord- ing to government figures. which at the beginning of this year. in- dicated Prince Edward Island was at the bottom of the list with average weekly earnings of 347.74. with Nova Scotia reported at 352.- 66. NE. at S5635, while Ontario was 565.73. Alberta 366.02, and BC. at 368.21.
He reminded his listeners that the population of the Atlantic Prov- inces has not been moving forward as has the population in other parts of Canada.
in the last nine years the debt of Prince Edward Island has in- creased by 78 per cent. according to figures issued last summer by the Citizens Research Institute of Canada. and it was estimated that P.E.l- now has per capita debt of Sl53.70. a figure exceeded in Can- ada only by the two other Marl time Provinces. he said.
TAX DIVISION
On the subject of Dominion-Pro vincial relations. Mr. Fleming said the Liberal Government at Ot- tawa has shown itself indifferent and arrogant in relation to the need for readjustment in the div- ision of revenues between the Dom- inion and Provinces from joint fields of taxation. The Federal Government has not yet recogniz-

All taxes due Albany Vil- lage School must be paid by May 25.
' By order of trustees. Raymond Cameron,
Secretary.
Provinces. he Illd. and we have reached the po t where this Gov- ernment at wa refuses give the Provinces any more rev-
enue out of those joint fields of
taxation. which. under the con- stitution. are just as much the
property and right of the Prov-, faces as they are of the Federalp
Government.
"And you know". he said. "what kind of a deal Prince Edward Is- land Is getting out of this new formula-"
Mr. Fleming said that the Pro- gressive Conservative party has stated that the time has come for a retux-u.to fiscal common sense.
At a time when the coffers of the Federal Government are filled t. overflowing. does it make sense that Prince Edward Island is now being called on the repay to the tune of over one million dollars, what is said to have been an over- payment to them- - which has been going steadily deeper into debt and has been obliged to raise taxes, he said.
"How long are the people some to submit to this?" he asked.
"The Conservative Party has
something very directly to Say 0" this, and this is said for all Prov- inces, and when the Prime Min- ister of Canada said. as he is quoted as saying yesterday. that his is being put forward for the benefit of the Province of Ontario. let me say to you. with all the em- phasis that I can command. that that is a dishonest bogey." said Mr. Fleming. ..”This is a demand we put for- ward in the name of. and for the benefit of all the Provinces of Can- . '4, and for the benefit of Prince Edward Island as much as for any other, for this Province and the other Provinces of the Marl- times are mr in need of a square deal with the Federal Government at Ottawa in the matter of div- ision of revenue from the joint fields of taxation."
CAN BE DONE
''It can be done without Increas- ing taxes." said Mr. Fleming. "the Liberal Government was pol- itically embarrased by the size of its huge budget surplus of last year which was half a billion dol- 1ars." It was so big. he said. that it mean that every man. woman or child in Canada last year was overtaxed by 830.00 by this govern- ment.
"With that surplus there was enough money to have done three things that badly needed to be done." said Mr. Fleming.
"First. to reduce taxes on the people in the low income brackets. and reduce the taxes on the neces- sities of life; secondly. to have given all the Provinces money that they badly needed to keep their financial heads above water, and carry forward the schemes of development that are so neces- sary for the prosperity of this country; and thirdly. there was enough there also to have given the aged people of this country a decent and necessary increase in the old age pension."
