MARCH l. 1941 lio Excuse For This llelay A reasonable cause for_ complaint which the Legislature has had during the past few sessions, is the belated appearance of the Pub- lic Accounts and other departmental reports. These reports, before reaching the House, are a year old. Formerly they were made up to Dec ember 31 of the preceding year, but with the change of the fiscal year to April i, the whole system has been changed and it is not too much to say that members on both sides, including Government members, are all at sea except with regard to their own particular_ depart- ments. As this has a tendency to discourage analytical debate, the Government leaders ap- pear to think highly of the new system. At any “m, they say, it is the one followed at Ottawa, and therefore it should be satisfactory. On this point the Financial Post has some time- ly comments. "No corporation in Canada," says the Post, "would think of asking its shareholdsrsfor op- proval of future plans without presenting an audited accounting for the previous year. Y_et the biggest business in the country, the Domin- ion Government has been following that irre- sponsible course for years. Enormous budgets are submitted to Parliament without audited figures for the previous year to guide the members. ' "According to law, the accounts of any year must he presented to Parliament by tlio following Oct. 3i, but only _if Parliament is then in session. lf the House is not sitting, the accounts are held over to _the next session. The accounts for the 'year which ended March 3i, 1946, were not presented gto Parliament until well into February, 1947. in short, when the membe-s are called upon in a few weeks to dis- cuss the current budget, the latest figures they will have for comparison will be a year old and some much more than that. _ "This delay is a serious handicap to effi- oient government. At any time it is bad enough but during a period like the present when we are still converting from a war to a ppst-war economy, old figures are almost meaningless. . Before the end of a fiscal year se_nior heads of various departments and divisions have to prepare estimates of the amounts they will require in the following year. During _the budget debate they have to answerauestions put to their minister (a) on the coming fiscal year, (b) on the year just closed, (c) _on the preceding fiscal year, accounts for which are only now in the hands of members. "iii other words, the next budget debate will keep civil servants running to the accounts ef three fiscal years, '46, '47 and '43—fll1ll "PM to carry on their normal work at the some time. "The government through its tax machin- ery requires every earning citizen and every company largo and small to ken accurate and up-to-datn accounts. The very ast it can do is to set an example and have its own account's ready for the public within a reasonable period. Much of what is said above applies to our local Legislature as well as the Parliament _at Ottawa. it applies particularly to the Provin- cial Budget which in recent years has been pie- sented without any attempt at elucidation. The Jones Government is responsible for this innova- tion, which would be tolerated in no other Prov- ince and which simply stultifies the House so far as any adequate discussion of the finances is concerned. At it Again Our irrepressible King's County member is "at it again" in the House of Commons, inter- rupting other speakers and getting somewhat sharp retorts in return. This is from the Han- sard report of February ‘Zl, during a debate on postal services: Mr. Smith (Calgary West): "We have a r r ‘law in this country whereby, if a gypsy sets shop down on Sparks Street and attempts to predict the future, we put him in jail. l think the Minister had better join the gypsie's show. But I was going to say this, with the greatest respect to the Minister: Do you take into con- nideration—" Dr. Grant: "You look like a gypsy." Mr. Smith: "One of these days something is going to happen over there and l will not predict what it will be. I am being respectful to you, sir, and may I suggest that the mem- bers of this cheering section give you the same respect." This was Dr. Grant's last contribution to the discussion. He had previously interrupted Mr. Smith, when the latter replied, "l did not hear that." At which another Prince Edward Islander, Mr. Angus Mclrinis, (Vancouver East), responded curtly: "lt does not matter." Alli Tn The Blind According to a news report from Ottawa, the Division of blindness Control of the De- partment of Health and Welfare intends to secure the services of the best available spec- loilst in eye diseases, with o view to develop- ing and making available treatment for those whose blindness’. be curable. , The care of o blind is at present under the separate administration of the Provinces. Prleamably it is not intended to revise this but, rather, to co-ordinato rs- activities. ' _ l, anljstliig ation blind persons over thd o‘: If forty o , according to the degree the blindness, eligible for pensions equival- L ent to old-age pensions. Of the 13,000 blind in Canada, 10,000 are over forty and about 7,000 are receiving pub- iic aid. Significantly, it is estimated that 36 per cent of those an pension are curable and fully 70 per cent of those over forty but who are not eligible, also are curable. The propor- tion of those below pension age must, in light of these figures, also be relatively high. Moreover, as Ottawa now pays 75 per cent of the average of $24 a month pail to blind r ' in s‘ it unquestionably has a "stake" in their welfare. If a number of the recipients can, through proper medical treat- ment, be removed from public assistance rolls and thus become useful, independent, and needless to say, happy citizens, much has been accomplished. — EDITORIAL NUTES — Tomorrow 2nd Sunday in Lent.

W ‘k l’ A The Government, while railing against the alleged injustices of Unions has created a formidable one itself in its Civil Service Com- mission, one, too, which removes from it the power of disciplining its own employees.

Embree, Port Hawkesbury, . S. ' e w w a Ontario Liberals [want to create a tenth province to include North-Western Territory. The Fort William Riding Association, however, count- ered with the suggestion that the proposed div- ision should take in all of Northern Ontario stretching from the Manitoba to Quebec bor- ders. The latter proposal, made by official laliehead sources, contended that Northwestern Ontario ‘alone, taking in the Kenora, Rainy Riv- er, Fort William and Pail Arthur provincial rid- ings and with a total population .of between 125,000 and 150,000 persons, would find it difficult to finance a skeleton provincial od- minlstration. Were the proposed 10th Canadian province to stretch-across from Manitoba to Quebec and reach as far south as North Bay, thereby taking in a fairly thickly populated reg- ion, chance of successful operation was held ta bo much better. w w Premier Duplessis has introduced a bill in Quebec Legislature to regulate the relations between that Province and the Dominion. It consists of three clauses: 1—The Government of the province is authorized to conclude with the Federal government any agreement which it may deem appropriate, effective ,ai1d just,’ to (a) Clarify and define the respective taxation fields of the Federal authority and of the prov- incos; (b) to simplify the methods of collect- ing taxes, to reduce them to reasonable pro- portions and to lighten the burddn thereof for the taxpayer; (c) to recover and safeguard, as the case may be, the constitutional rights of the province; (d) to search for and apply the best means of attaining the objects of the Fod- oral pact. 2--The provisions of section 1 shall have force and effect only until March 31, 194B. 3-—The orders-in-council passed in virtue of the present Act shall be deposited immediately after ‘of the following session. their adoption if the Legislature is than in ses- sion, and if not, within the first fifteen days the 1m, inE CHARILOTTETOWN GUARDIAN llotes By The Way One of like Chase's snout famous lines was not reed on the stage.
