The agent of the Society came along and Save the fanner “a terrible calling down“ for beet- ing the horses. "We all know," Mr. MdPhee said, “that it. is neces- sB-ry to use the whip at times.

Mr. Saviile noted that under the Act the Society's agent could go into a man's stable and take his animal somewhere else and no- body could stop him. He was in Byllll-Pfliihy With the Society's aims, but there was danger that this legislation was going too far. He agreed with Mr. McPhee that one must use “reasonable means" to make animals work.

The figures given below refer to 1936. the last year, Coun. Chandler said. for which complete figures were available.

The estimates for 1937 and for 1938 were included also in the statement Coun. Chandler read. Commenting on different items the Chairman of Finance point- ed out that in some cases where this year's expenditures exceeded last year's for the same period the reason probably was because of work done earlier" this season. That was the case with respect to expenditure for Government Squares, while in- creased miscellaneous expenditure was due in large part to civic elec- tion expenses. Coun. A. A. Heunessey, chairman of streets and Coun. Dr. Heath McIntyre. chairman of Police a- gleed to look into expenditure in their dopartilicnts to ascertain why there had bccn an increase.

' On resumln . the Budget debate in the Legisia ure Monday evening, Mr. C. C. aker, Fourth District of Prince, indcrsed the sentiment-l of speakers on the Draft Address with regard to former members who had passed away during the year. The Premier, he sai , had dealt "clearly. candidly and comprehen- sively" with the financial situation and the reasons therefore. I-Ifs arguments had been “sound, well founded and straight-forwardly brought to the attention of the House. This was only what was expected of one of the Premier's record and reputation. To the borrowing under the late Conservative Government Mr. Baker attributed an interest charge of $25,000 yearly, which in ten years would amount to $300,000. He congratulated the Minister of Public Works on keeping so close- ly to his estimates during the year. The Minister, Mr. Baker regretted to ay, had been "harshly criticis- ed" by the member from Fifth Kings (Mr. Hughes) about the pav- ed road projects. An apportunity has been provided to discuss the proposed program prior to its adoption, “and if my recollection serves me no serious objection was rated at that time," said Mr. Baker. The same was true with respect to the criticism of the member from Strathgartney (Mr. Stewart), "I relnelnbcr opening the subject and lasing tlic objection that the Charlottetown-Borden road by way of Bonshaw was not. receiving, in the pro osed pro ram, a mileage in groport on to 0t er proposed routes L‘. l‘ must say that; was very dis- appointed in he lukewarm support my objection received from the member Sula rtney. He should have been more interested than I was, because a much greater mileage of that road lies in First Queens than in Fouth Prince- "I understand that no contract has been let for the four or five mic. of hardsurfacirlg proposed to be laid on this road, due to the fact that tenders were too high, and that it would be more ec- onomical to defer this year until a greater mileage has been prepared for subgrading. This should meet with the a provai of the member. as it woul be inconsistent on his art to bemoan the financlaistaild- rig of the province and yet insist 0T1 Dal/ed roads being laid in his district at a. cost which exceeded that in uzner localities." Mr. Baker commended the Min- ister of Agriculture on his efforts during the year. He believed that never had a. more wholeheal-teri effcrt been made to promote and assist the industry. He strongly re- commended the continuance and development of agricultural short courses. . He approved the govemmenvs effort to assist in distributing seed grain, and said it was important to correct the erroneous idea that in eulosis, should be taken in ‘ chairman and $300 each this grain was to be distributed free of cost. In the matter of educational ro- form Mr. Baker noted that man people seemed to have a cure-ai or our problems. ‘The matter had been ably dealt with by the Pre- mier and he knew of no one better qualified to discuss this question. Latin and other studies objected to mighrtflbe thought. bemade option- al. but this would leave a gap which _would have to be filled by other studies, making still greater demands upon the teacher. ‘There was too great a tendency, Mr. Baker insisted. to leave edu- cation to the schools. Training in ood citizenshi may be taught in he home by t e parents. and this form cf education, by example, was vitally important. He thought one influence which 4 made for “insubordination" was the garty newspaper. The Government, e complained, was recelvin "en- tireiy unjust and uncaled-for criticism" which was detrimental t0 the interests of the Province. In- stead of "mud-slinging" there should be helpful comments, and more good would result, he thou ht. Passing over this subject wth- out s ecifying the criticism he had in m nd. Mr. Baker took up the public question. He expressed con- cern at the high provincial death- rate from tuberculosis and stressed the increased demands of the Pro- vincial sanatorium. A blood test. or at least a skin test. for tubal; schools, he suggested. Fisherman's Loan Board with regard to the Fisherman's Inan Board. Mr. Baker noted it had been charged in the House that the officials of the Board ex- ceeded, their estimate by 100 per cent. That charge was correct. However, this was a new venture, only organized last year, and the applications for loam have exceed- ed all expectations. thereby neces- sitating a great deal more work than was anticipated. There was no doubt that the estimate was in- sufficient and therefore had to be exceeded to some extent. Hon. Mr. LePage: " ight I make an explanation?" Mr. Baker: “Surely. It will give me a rest." Hon. Mr. LePage: "I might say that the cost of administration is for two years and not for one. when that estimate was made lest year there was no thought of the ler e number of buildings to be bu t in this Province. 'I‘he amount would have been quite sufficient to take care of the office and the meagre salaries of the three mem- bers of the Board. Another thing the Premier just reminded me c‘. is that we had double the amount of money from Ottawa last year to administer. The saiariev. as stated before. were $000 a vear for the for the other mmebers. The rest was ex- penses." Mr. Baker expressed the hope that his remarks would not be con; strued as being "controversial. He was not finding fault. Never- theiss, he beiiev d the! expenses could be clgflalzl: in a "consider- a e to the fact that the chrrman liven in Charlottetown while one member resides in the extreme heart of the west of the Province and the other in the ev- treme out. Suggute Improvement w. Baker confessed that he failed to see the necessity of one member receiving so much more for tl-avellin expenses than @110 other. He fet that the member in Prince County is quite capable of doing the neceuury investirat-inir M far out as Charlottetown. The eastern member could look after and Queen! Counties as fur Charlotte K '13P.- town, tbue leav- ._. lug the chairman at the bled of- fize to attend to the clerical work, without incurring any high costs for B . also that the full e administration as well as the loans should be borne by the Dominion Government, which already controls all regula- tions for fisheries in our coastal waters. Mr. Baker concluded b emphas- izing the importance of e fox in- dustry. The time has come when this must be brought into line with our other livestock industries. He commended the Government for providing the services of a. fox field man, and stressed the increasing value of attention to proper breed- ing methods. He also commended those responsible for the success of the fox demonstration week at Summerside. MR. H. H. COX Mr. H H. Cox, Second Kings. declared that we have not only one of the youngest Premiers in the oouritry. but one of the smartest. “I think." he added amid applause from Government benches that when any member of this House criticises the Premier on what he has done during the past vear, he =houldn't call himself a Liberal. If his administration don't suit him —I don't thick he should stand up and criticise. We all make mistakes -I'm not saying the Premier made any mistake hilt I think they should be overlooked as a good Liberal. “A Few Fanatics” "You see in The Guardian news- aper about a few fanatics who are lking about balancing the bud- et," Mr. Cox proceeded. "It seems be one of the thin against this Government that t ey romis- ed to balance the budget. ue we did. That was one of our planks. But why did we not balance the Budget? I say that unavoidable conditions, unforseen conditions, made it impowibie." Mr. Cox said theGovernmen-t was just like a farmer who sets out to balance his farm budget. and has to meet unforseen expenditures. “Do you think for one moment." he said, that the Ministers didn't want to do it? Do you think they were not sincere? Weren't we all sincere‘! Of course we were. Un- avoldable conditions made it im- pd. sible for us to do so." Mr. Cox recalled that one of "the fairest taxes over imposed" was the Poll Tax which the Conservatives had attacked at every meeting in 1923. That meant a loss of $35000 a year or $490,000. The Conservatives had also borrowed a million dollars at an interest cost, he computed, 0d $450,000. They were going to build a million dollar building at Falcon- wood and paid an architect $30,000 and they never used the plans, he maintained. “That ought to shut them up on that," he declared. He also said the Conservatives had "raised the gasoline tax" on the fishermen while the Liberals had paid the full rebate. He cited Liberal expenditures on fishermen's ans. Mr. Cox touched i hti on the question of liquor adm nis ration. “Some critics," he said. “want us to change this government control. thinking that is going to put us out. They can't put us outl" He dealt at greater length with hog grading regulations, explain- ing why there was a greater shrinkage on unfinished hogs. The proper way for the people to ship hogs was "live." He cited figures showing s great increase in the practice of rail grading. which was not compulsory but was be- coming more and more popular. Mr. Cox said he was a farmer, and ve his own experience in shlpp ng hogs to prove the ad vantage of shipping through the livestock organization. He also commended the Credit Union movement. Concluding, he declared: "We as Liberals would feel proud of tin way things are being handled since this Government came in." The road programme especially was "a credit to the party.” “If we go on and do as we are doing, we will be here for a great many years." Mr. Cox was followed by Hon. Mr. Dennis who at 10.30 p. m. adjourned the debate, the House then adjourning until 11 a. m. this MR. E. P. FOLEY Following I-Ion. Mr. Dennis in the debate yesterday afternoon, Mr. Edward P. Foley, Fifth Dis- trict of Prince, commended Mr. Savilie on the good use he had made of his study of literature, and the Premier on his remarks on the subject of educational re- form, which he fully endorsed. The leaders of any government. he believed, have “no enviable ition today." There was in par- icular the ever increasing prob- lem of provincial financing. “'I‘here is no doubt," said Mr. Foley. “that we promised to bal- ance the budget. and all that, but who in the past number of years could forsee all the things that have taken place?” Last year the Govemment was some $60,000 over their estimated deficit, but in re- cent years we have heard the pre- diction of great economists, and how many of these economists have struck anywhere near the mark? He did not think any of them came "nearly so near as our Premier has come in balancing that budget." _ Conservative overdraft and him- wav projects were blamed by Mr. Foley for accumulated interest charges. But the present Govem- merit, he thought. was doing well in reducing expenditures. "If we can carry on in the next few years and get anywhere as near a: we have done in the past, I think it can be said that W6 IN making a pretty good job of it.” Mitch better. he believed, than if the Conservatives had been re- turned to power. He commended the economy of the Minister of Public Works. who needed "his bi shoulders and his genial smile" turn down the many requests made for extra expenditures. The Mintster had been criticis- ed because King's County was not getting a fair share of paved - work. Mr. Foley did not think there was much in this criticism because Geo had de- veloped as a port of entry. like Charlottetown and summerside. the mud would of necessity have ne to etown. He did not ink Prince County had receiv- ed any more mad miles e than its due. The hurt-h Distrlc of Prince alone paid "just about as much in ...-......¢ Whitney Begins 5 To 10 Year Prison Sent- ence. (By I. Norman e (Annotated Prue Staff rlhr) O§INING N. Y..

Mr. Foley particularly com- mended the move to encourage in- terest in forestry. He hoped the students who have taken the for- estry course will show our own people how to maintain and de- veiop our woodland resources. The fox field service was also commended. There was at present a move- ment to obtain a reduction on pelts going into the United States. It was questionable. Mr. Foley said. whet-her that would be of any ng to seed distribution. he =aid there had been some criti- cism because the Government was not undertaking to make free dis- tribution, This would be impossible to undertake. Another objection was that the Government is tak- ing prioriiy of mortgages on the farms. b this also was a neces- sary measure, the piained. - On the question of expropriation for the National Park, Mr. Foley contented himself with remarkin that at least the Attorney Genera acted as he thought best for the Province. "Whether he is correct or not he certainly did it in the best interests of the people." He emphasized the tourist in- dustry and the Park prospects in years to come. The people do not seem to realize, he said. that the Dominion Government takes over the Park and maintains it at no expense to is Province. Credit Unions were e. good thing, Mr. Foley said. but he would aug- gest that they go "slowly and wise- ly." If the movement teaches thrift it will be a great boon t0 many people. "but I am afraid t at some of the people think they can put the merchants out of business. If they have that idea th are riding for a fall. I would vise them all to so easy and watch their step." He stressed also the needs of the Provincial Sanatorlum. and the avity of the problem of social iseasea, the terrible effects of which have become alarmingly manifest in this Province in re- cent years. We should, he believed, make at least as much effort to clean up this situation, as we have done to make our Province a disease free cattle area. speaker ex- 0N DISPLAY Highland Village Re- ANNOUNCE DATE FOB BA- ZAAIb-lrbe Committee in charge under the joint chairmanshi of Rev.
