Campbell): You have been fishing here for some years? A: Yes. Q: Most of your-life? A: oh yes. I have been here since I was about Q: In the period prior to mo loans were fairly small. being somewhat under 376.00-from thir- ty to forty dollars. Now back in those years you said you got a couple of small loans and paid them back. A: I paid those back. I don't remember exactly. what year-some time in the thirties. Q: Wes there any feeling at that time that those loans were for relief? Is there any feeling around Miminlgash that those loans were no loans at all-that they weren't supposed to be paid back? A: I couldn't tell you of the feeling around Miminigash. I can tell you of my own feeling- I didn't think it was relief at the time. It was given to us so that it was to be paid back. ,Q: As faras you yourself are concerned? A: I never heard it -was given out for relief. Q: How were they repaid- through gas rebates? A: Yes, through gsa rebates. Q: You mentioned previously that in some cases of fiaherman's loans here there was a mixup of names. A: Yes-most of the loans by two men with the same name were charged to one man-they cculdn't get that straightened out. Q: where the names were the same? A: Yes. Q: You mean in this commun- ity where there were the same names. they got the names mixed up? A: Yes. Q: Now there's another mstter I'd like to ask about-that is. it- regularities. You said that You heard of farmers getting loans that had never fished at all. A: That's a. thing I couldnti. prove. v'l'hat's only something you hear. Q: You mean that's lust some- thing you heard? A: I couldn't prove that. You would have to see it yourself. Q: That's the talk that goes around? A: sometimes the fish- ermen couldn't get a loan because the money was given out to th! wrong people. Q: Would you say there, was more of that done around election time than at any other time? A: No. I wouldn't say that. Q: one of the things that gave rise to this inquiry was that some- one claimod that loans were given out to get votes. would you say that was the case here? A: No. I don't think so. Q: would you lay i-but I-hole rumors-about farmers getting loans-would you ll! thli 31139 was donsu at election time to get votes? A: No. I wouldn't say. Q: You sold previously, in re- spect to the new Board, that they were of more benefit to the fish- when last year than they are this year. A: Yes. Q: You pretty nearly all so- operate here-you mean there is a fisher-men's union here? A: Yes. Q: who runs the factory? A: The co-operative and a. Mr. Gal- lant. There sre two lobster fact- cries. Q. Your season own! 011 I119 loth of August? A: Yes. Q: At the present time you In fishing codfish? A: Yes. ' Q: tllhen I tune it that sms-.l loans for the purpose of nets and so on would suit you Popole better? A: well. yes-what we found in the co-operative with this new Board-the last year we borrowed the money. we bought fishing gear for the fishermen . Q: couldn't you get it 9111! year? A: No. Only money to bill! engines and boats and arassorm Q: You mean, there has been a change in the last year? A: Yes. Q: Thank you. Mr. Murphy. I think that will be all. Anthony Gsllent lwom Q: where do you live an-. Gai- lant? A: I live here in Iabsflect. Q: nave you fished all your life? A: Yes. a m n "ma Q: An you so 0 loans in the thirties before the war and you paid them back with the gasoline rebates? A: Yes. Q: And on don't know if V911 are ev dornot? A: No.1 don't hsow.

A: I finu-ad thdy were to help the fishermen out. I got nets and trawls with mine. Q: What fmean is this-was there an ideal that they -were for assistance rather than a loan? A: I thought they were a loan. Q: In your once you say there has been a roixup in names and you feel you have overpaid? A: I have been paying my gas rebate every year and they don't seem to be getting any smaller, -I don't know what they are charging on ohem.- . . Q: You consider yourself con- siderably ovenpaid? A: Sure I do. Q: when you send in for your gas rebate. do they keep it all? A: Usually-some ye": they kecphalf or thus parts of it. ” Q: All you got in loans was about eighty dollars? A: Yes.

Q: How far away is be from you? .A: About five miles. He was not a fisherman around here. He worked in the factory and he wss not entitled to a gas rebate. Q: were there any more loans given out during election times than at any other time? A: Not that I ever hesrd of. . Q: There is A question we hav- en't been asking-do you find that the merchants were pushing the loans more ilhln the fishermen themselves? Have you heard that? A: No I haven't. It is a long time since those loens were gotten and everyone has forgotten about it. Judge Desluches: Is it your opinion that the merchants were driving the fishermen to apply for loans in order topay old accounts? A: No, not that I know of. Ernest Gallant Sworn.
