Mr. McIntyre: I think my‘ hon. friend's memory i5 very short. He should look up the amount of his travelling expenses to Ottawa; and I was informed that he had a pass. Mr. Stewart: That is not true. Mr. McIntyre: Well, if my hon. friend looks up the amount he took for his expenses to Ottawa he wlll_ find they are on the same basis, I attended a good roads conference in Regine. and even if you have a tray- elling 018s your hotel expenses in those places are Pretty large.

These amounts are charged to the Depart- ment of Public Works and the ro- sponslbiilty is upon you.

Mr. Arsenault: Youspent $150,000 last year and your contractor has three years to supply it. You only got one-third of the gravel last year. You are estimating an expenditure of $100,000 this year and you are going to pay for another third of the amount. Are you going to come back next year and borrow some more to pay for the last third? Mr. McIntyre: You are looking a long way ahead. Mr. Arsenault: How can you make a. contract for three years. when 8300.000 is all the money that the Legislature has empowered you to borrow? Mr. McIntyre: Walt till the time comes. Mr. Araonaolt: But we have a right lo kiiow. In two years ydu have spent all the money that we have‘ autoris- ed you to borrow on gravelllng, and you will only be able to pay two- thirds of what you have bought. Isn't that right?
