ISLAND CLAIMS
ioenuuuea from page in
and E. W. Nesbitt, Woodstock, Ont.
Mr. Nesbitt is a former member of
the House of Commons for North
'0xford. .
Early in his argument Mr. Mac-
donald submitted monies paid by
the Dominion as subsidies to the
provinces always had been on the
basis of "fiscal needs" of the pro-
vinces. . The western provinces had
received many special grants in the
way of special grants for lands and
special grants for public buildings.
additional to their regular subsidies
over a period of years, he stated.
"Of all the revisions in subsidies
that have been made," said Mr.
Macdonald. “nearly everyone can be
traced beck to ,the fiscal necessity
of the provinces and the willing-
ness of the government at Ottawa
to yield to that necessity."
No Change of Ground .
He denied the statement in the
brief of the Dominion that Nova
Scotia had changed the grounds on
which it based its claim for increas-
ed subsidies. “There ls no shifting
by Nova Scotia. of the grounds on
which it asked for relief before the
Duncan Commission in 1900 or in
August, 1934, before the Privy Coun-
cil at Ottawa," hs declared.
“It is a function of the Dominion
Government, as far as possible."
stated Mr. MacDonald, “to carry out
what is stated in the Quebec resolu-
‘tlon and the British North America
Act, namely that prosperity should
that
an
be ensured, not to this part or
part, but so .far as possible, in
equal measure to all parts."
The brief of the Dominion had
raised the question of the constitu-
tionality of paying subsidies to the
provinces. "If the principle
contsitutlonal, then we have been
doing something in this country for
he said. “The fact remains subsldl
. have been paid to the provinces of
Canada since Confederation.”
To say it was unconstitutional, he
proceeded, to grant an increase in
subsidies was to say everything
which had been done in this regard
since 1067 was unconstitutional.
VN. S. Oontention -
When Nova. Scotia entered Con-
federation it was asked what its fis-
cal needs were and how much it
could raise by revenue from crown
and coal lands. The difference, he
continued, was the basis of the Do-
minion subsidy granhd at that time.
The Dominion had never treated
any subsidy as "final and unalter-
able," said Mr. MacDonald. He
denied the subsidy principle was in-
On the question of his provincc's
needs, he said Nova Scotia. would
like to have a. central reformatory
and prison farm and spend more on
education, but lt did not have the
money. With the exception o!
Prince Edward Island, the rat/es paid
under the old age pensions scheme
was lower in Nova Scotia than in
‘ any other province.
In regard to the question cf taxa-
tion in Nova Scotia, the avenge rats
per capita was 15.61 cents; and
there were only three provinces in
which the capita rate of taxation
was higher. The wealth per capita
for the Dominion was $3.075, said
Mr. Macdonald, while wealth per
capita in Nova Scotia was $1.700.
according to the Dominion Bureau
of Statistics.
On the question of the fiscal needs
of Nova. Scotia, he claimed the com-
parison of the wealth in that pro-
vince with Canada as a whole, as
made in the brief of the Dominion.
was unsound. In automobiles, tele-
phones, life insurance, building con-
tracts and radios, Nova Scotia fig-
ures were about 33 percent less than
the figures for Canada as a. whole.

QUEBEU, Jan. 24. - 'lhe silver

stood up during tze depression,
Charles Fremont, K. ., director of
the National Silver Fox Breeders’
Association. said yesterday upon rs-
turn from the annual meeting o! the
Association at Sa.Ka»toos1.
At present Canada was producing
the best known fox Delta in the
world, approximately 315.000 being
exported, during 1034, chiefly to
lsmdm. 'I‘he association, through
its own co-operative system of sel-
ling and distribution. handled 31,500
pelts through its central clearing
house at Bummerslde. P. E. 1.,
` where grading is done and a market
secured.
'Togiveyouafairideaofthe
value of the silver fox breeding, I
might mention that Prince Edward
Island alone received a. revenue of
3.000.000 last year from this source,"
he said. “In view of the disastrous-
ly low potato prices and the United
States embargo against that vege-
table, the fox revenue was largely
responsible for keeping people of the
island solvent."

THE TEE! BESEDE TEE LINE
In yonder fields there stands a tree
So tall and straight and fine,
Forgrpegtrs it stood in the self some
To mark the boundary line,
It stands there as a. warrior bold
With its mlghtly arms outstretched.
To guide whatever should chance to
come
Beneath iis bcughs to rest.
In days of yore when first I saw
That tree beside the line.
It was my only hearts desire,
To its very top to climb.
But as the years sped swiftly by
And time had changed my mind.
I longed to carve upon that tree
My lovers heart and mine.
And often as I wandered by
That tree so tall and sublime,
I stand and gale with memories
sweet
For on its bark two hearts entwlne
My love and I we often stood
Beneath its outstretched arms
To gaze in ewes of wonderment
At one of Natures charms.

(By The Canadian Press)
The goal-count that Winnipeg
Monarchs have rolled up in their
convent hockey tour of Britain and
Europe looks even more impressive
than their undefeated record.
Midny through Janusry.the al-
most invinoible Monarchs, senior
amateur champions of Manitoba
last winter, had tallied 140 goals
compared with a mere 1'! which
opposition teams have managed to
score. They achieved this in the
course of winning 2! out of 24 games
played. The other game-against the
Praha Lawn 'Ilennis Club-ended in
a scoreless tie.
Romeo Rivers, Norm Yellowlees
and Archie Creighton were the big
-three of the dcoring records, Romeo
lhding the pack with 27 counters
to his or-edit. leur teams achieved
the distinction of scoring two goals
against the touring hoclreyists-
Francais Volantes of Paris, Rich-
mond Hawks of London, the Berlin

ents had to be content with one goal

Forecast
- (By C. B. Blackburn)
(Canadhn Pness Staff Writer)
(C.P. By Guardia-n’a Speohl Wire)
MWTREAL, Jan. 24-Extension
of the public works programme in-
itiated last year as an unemploy-
ment relief measure and efforts to
formulate a. housing schema were
forecast by Prime Minister R. B.
Bennett in an address before the
Canadian Construction Asoclation
here last night.
The $40,000,000 public works pro-
gramme started iast spring had
been p. success, Mr. Bennett said.
It was the intention of the govern-
ment to continue on the course then
adopted. Furthermore, he said, “I
trust we may be able to evolve
some scheme to lnprove the lot of
those who have to live in tene-
ments."
There had been many suggestions
with respect to housing, Mr. Ben-
nett continued, and they involved
spending vast sums of money which
must come from the taxpayers. It
was the task of the government to
ascertain how far it could go in
such expenditures. In that respect
there was no ,disposition on the
part of the government to avoid its
responsibility.
Stresses Needed llteform
Addressing the 17th annual ban-
quet of the association Mr. Ben-
nett revlewed conditions leading up
is the depression and since and re-
iterated his belief that reform of
the capitalist system was necessary
and inevitable. He bespoke the oo-
0D_ol‘ltkm of the oondructlon trades
in any future government building
enterprise but jooularly wamed
them not to tender at figures that
would involve them in losses. All
the government wanted, he said was

1030 of some "hundred million dol-
lars." Pnllef expenditures, he said,
hrsl ccf\ Canada $150,000,000 since
1930. `
I’r\'1llc ’\'.’orlrs Program
Last year, Mr. Bennett said, the
government had endeavored to help
the unemployment situation by
launching a $40,000, public works
programme. It was a difficult sub-
ject, he said, and he realired that
a similar experiment in England,
on a huge scale, had been found,
according to a League of Nations
report, not the best means of meet-
ing the problem.
"But this is a new country as
distinguished from England," Mr.
Bennett continued. "I say frankly
that I am not disappointed in our
$40,000,000 programme." He thanked
the construction trarles for their
co-operation and declared the same
policy would be pursued. I-is hoped
to be able thus to provide cm-
ployment for increasing nupibers.
It was s. reflection upon so young
a country as Canada. that it should
have a housing problem. But there
was one. How to grapple with it had
not been decided. he said, but the
government would seek to evolve a
plan.
It was a. curious thing, Mr. Ben-
nett proceeded, that when times
were good and there was large rev-
enues with everyone prosperous, “we
talk about reducing taxation, and
when times arc hard we have to
raise taxes just when people are
least able to pay."
"BeoondltiohIll¢" The Ship
That was the reason lv: now pro-
posed his policies of reform. l-ie was
confident that the "ship of stats"
had weathered 'the storm and it
was now possible to “recsndltion
the ship." That was why the gov-
ernment mwtnpmposed to initiate
a plan of une ployment insurance
by which, with the worker. the am-
piohl' and the state mfitributlng,
workers might be able to make pro-
vision for such circumstances as
had raced them in the put four
years
 til;Workst Extension &
Housing Scheme Program
° eMinister
Reform of the capitalist system
was held out by Mr. Bennett as an
essential measure unless commun-
ism or socialism were to come. The
desire for either communism or so-
cialism had not been manifest in
Canada to any marked degree. "so
the responsibility rests with yoru
and me," he said, "to make the cap-
italist system responsive to our
present day needs and obligations."
Canada had passed through a
world depression and maintained
an enviable position among the na-
tions of the world. The lowest point
had been reached and conditions
were on the upward trend. The
question was whether to go on as
before or t0 profit from the emper-
iences of the past.
"I have ventured to sussfst that
this system is still the best luldcr
which wc can conduct national af-
fairs. I still believe that ls"so," Mr.
Bennett continued. “England passed
through the depression as we did.
but met , difficulties peacefully
while other nations crumbled."
Employment Pickup
Unemployment had fallen from n
peak of 750,000 to about 450,000 ihr-
Prime Minister said. He believed
gist, considering climatic condit-
ns in Canada. it was safe to es-
sums there would always be a sea-
sonal unen\_oloyment involving
about 150,000 workers. Ordinarily
those seasonally unemployed were
savings. But the past four years
had altered that and it was the
duty of the state to care for them
in a way that W1!! not be detri-
mental to their se respect.
Tribute To Farmers `
The Prima Minister commented at
length on the difficulties of alfr-
culture, particularly in the west, and
paid a tribute to the farmers who
determlnedly fought drought and
pmt on the Prairies in the lace of
yearly failures. I-ic would like to
bring it home to those whose lives
were passed in urban districts, he
_sa1d, how greatly the western farm-
er in general had suffered. "lt is
hard ts realise the tragedy of it,"
he commented.
“The tendency in times of disas-
ter," the Prime Minister continued,
"is for everyone to tum to the gov-
ernment. Yet these are the men who
talk of rugged individualism. There
ls a limit to what ‘governments can
do. When a person abandons all
desire to work for himself and says
*tha government ewes ms a living'
able to carry themselves with thelrl
4
he finds it a little difficult to sup-
port that thesis." But the govem-
ment had managed to meet many
difficulties and was “now on the
forward march." .-.
