The objection upon which we base our opposition to the Public Works, when he was_ pro- ceeding with such an experiment, in going into such a vast undertaking in a scale involving so much mo- ney, should at least have proceed- =d legally and properly. and not or- dered $80,000 or $90,000 of machin- ery. as hc says himself, over the telephone. Borrowings Curtalied by Opposition This is it very serious matter Our friends on the oposite side of the the reduction of taxes and other measures which we carried out in direct compliance with the promises made to the people in our platform; to have us rushed into this expen- :liturc involving $100,000. Not only that, but conjointly with it another expenditure of not $100,000; but $300,000; $100,000 for road machin- ery, $300,000 for graveiling; and l have not thc 'least doubt, Mr. Speak- er, but ii' this Opposition of six members had not registered pretty strenuous objection to thc other measure, instead of being $300,000 it would have been half a million. $500,000 was the original amount that was brought beforethis House for consideration; and it was re- duced to $300,000; it should have been reduced still further. It is all borrowed money; and the receipts from the gasoline tax and the fees from the auto registrations arc to be mortgaged in order to pay for this machinery. I submit that this year. at this session of the House, would have been time enough to submit such a vast proposition to the consideration of the peoplc`s representatives, rather than buy it "over the phone," without authori- -y. and then come to this House and ask us to finance the scheme in some way. We are given to under- stand that it is not paid yet; but it must bc paid for,. because it has bccn delivered although wc have no record of its delivery. We have had no invoices or any other documents in connection with its purchase tabled in this House. although the question has been~ on thc order paper, I think, from the day the House opened. We have not yet re- ceived thc information we require. In order to make up n case to sav that this was necessary. the Minis- ter of Public Works subrnittcri fig- ures and made certain statements: and now every member of the House representing the Government and its followers has madcthc same statement regarding the neglect of roads under the Stewart Govern- ment, in order to show that some- thing radical rnust be clone now. 'i`lrc Minister' submitted figures about the expenditure of $40,000 that wus made under thc Stewart Govern- mmrt in election year. He did not take the pains to tell us that inthe election year of the Arsenault Gov- ernment the expenditure. as they said, was $300,000. llc did not tell us that in the election year of the Bcll Government the expenditure was so large that wc had to issue bonds of $150,000 to pay for the lditurc in election years under the ernment are both in the same cate- gory-neglectful of roads?

If he goes back to the year 192-1» he will find more work done in that year than in any year, because the time for the Federal Government for im- proved highways was nearing its expiration. and the Government in that year not only had to finish those projects which were left in such a disgraceful condition by the Govemment of which the present Minister of Public Works was a fol- lower, but also had to undertake new projects while the opportunity remained of taking advantage of that grant. < No work done on the roads?
