John- stone who reminded his Worship that the meeting was called to con- sider s. report of the Street Com- mittee with a view to deleting un- necessary help. He suggested that since there had been no meeting of the Street Committee, the Coun- cil could not deal with the matter. The Mayor instructed oun. Cormac to hold a meet - of his Coinmlttee and the Council would again meet in a week's time to con- sider the report. "It is my opinion," said His Worship. "there is too much ifeather-bedding' going on and if men are not working, we have to get rid of them." Coun. Rogers brought to the attention of the Council that of- flcials of the Charlottetown Forum had approached the City for a ZFBM 0! 54.000. He asked that this matter be given the atten- tion of the meeting. It had been pointed out to him and the other councillors that the rink is used for the school children of the City for skating and hockey and since the Forum had been operating at a deficit. machinery which had been added to the ice-plant was "01 heinl Plifl for and the Forum would have to close down. Coun. Rogers expressed the op- pose would be in order. Coun. Gaudet said that it had been brought to his attention that the Forum was supporting a hockey club and if this proposed loan is for the subsidizing of such a club. he would like to have clari- ficatlon on the matter. Coun. Mac- Donald agreed that in fairness to the Forum officials they should be given I chance to clarify their status. Mayor Stewart felt that the, Council would be creating a pre- cedent by giving a grant to pri- vate enterprise. "By the time- we get through Paylnl for our new school." Coun. Johnstone said, "the chil- dren may have to be content to skate on Government Pond." . A by-law to amend a by-law in connection with the establish- ing of a restricted area in the Brighton district was given its third reading. Resolutions calling for the purchase of 150 tons of coal from W. D.

Councillor Gaudet. chairman of the Market Committee. reported that plans had now been finalized for the change-over in tho Mar- ke,t Building to provide for a bus terminal and a travel bureau. He felt the Council should make themselves informed on the mat.- ter. His Worship asked Coun. Gaudet when he would like to have the Council look over the, proposed changes. Coun. Gaudet suggested Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock. This was agreed by His Worship.

As to the tax reduction plan. he said: "I have, accordingly, advised the premiers of all provinces that we propose. pending the results of a new federal-provincial conference, to ask Parliament to amend the federal income tax law in order to make a reduction of 10 per cent for all taxpayers of any province where a provincial income tax is levied on income for the years 1955 and 1956.
