The system under which local authorities are held primarily re- sponslble for relief could not. be continued at the price of “financial chaos and enormous waste.“ 'I‘he commission considered it essential also that. the Dominion be given Jurisdiction -or even concurrent tjurisdiclion-to establish unemploy- ment insurance. when it seemed advisable. and that a national em- ployment. service be set. up. Other welfare services would re- main o provincial res nsibility but. the provinces would placed in financial position to perform those services adequately. The commission's financial plan was designed to that end. "Provrzielal responsibility for so- cial welfare should be deemed basic and general." the report set out "Dominion responsibility. on the other hand. should be deemed an exception to the general rulc and as such should he strictly defined. But the Dominion should be given adequate jurisdiction to perform efficiently whatever responsibilities are entrusted to it." Reviewing the devastating effects of unemployment relief on pro- vincial and municipal finances. the commission concluded that the loacl “hos seriously strained the. credit. reserves of at: least eight. of the nine provinces, and it. would appear doubtful whether they can carry indefinitely even their pre- sent. shares of relLfi burdens." Existing Set -Up Under the existing set-up. relief standards have varied widely andt have tended to be “those 0f D00?’ relief. rather than for the maln- teiiancc of the efficiency of em- ptm-nbtes o , Bilreau was taken o-vcr by tlw Pro- TO [acttitatn hgndlinq relief (Qpivincliil Government. can t-he 1st. employablcs, and to protect trc d8)’ (‘i Jamialll’ of this year and is now a department of the Govern- ment. under the Provincial Secre- tary-Trcasurrei" with Mr. B.
