Fur Farming / The fur farming industry had its genesis on Prince Edward Island. Fur farmers were the bcst tax payers engaged in a primary industry on Prince Ezl-ward Island. During the war the industry ivas taxed ractically out of existence. Only t ose who spent everything to hold on to their investment have survived or those who managed to obtain a new type of fox. The fishing industry lacks frozen bait and colo storage, while bet- ter methods of fishing further out. to sea should have been encour- ag . Industrial concentration has pro- ceeded so far in Canada that now Prince Edward Island with sixty- three per cent in agriculture has a male labour income of only $590 while two other provinces ex- ceed 81,000 with only seventeen er cent in agriculture. The pol- cy in Canada. seems to be to ens‘.- lze agriculture and reward ndus- try as the farther away from agri- culture, the more money there ls. Prince Edward Island has the highest percentage of British stock and its people have proven to be most patriotic The French element have equalled or excelled the British cnlistments. The en- listments are second highest of any province. They top Canada in Red Cross subscriptions and in- variably are first "over the top."

The in- increase per family is a close sec- ond to Quebec province. Under the present conditions nearly forty per cent leave the province in their productive years. The populatiox of Prince Edward Island leads Canada in the numbers under twenty years. and also in those over sixty yeurs. The young leave the province and 'take their educational train- lng and earning power with thorn, both of which were acquired at the province's expense. They also take considerable wealth along and in- herlt a. very consideqable quantity, all of wh h is a direct loss to the province. serious is the decline in recent yea-rs through migration to mainland war work that there are now 5.000 fewer women than men in the rural" areas of Prinnc Edward Island according to Doctor Lattimer, Economist of McGlll Uni- versity, who made an economic starve-y of Prince Edward Island in The land in rural areas has been considerably exhausted by increas- ed war production. This will nec- essitate a return to better roto- tlons and this: in turn will lessen production in succeeding years. Unfair System The people of Prince Edward Island have no quarrel with cor- gorattons as such. They succeed ecause they have great bargain- ing power. But they complain about s system which locates them mostly in one area of Canada and they claim that taxes paid by them belong to the people as a whole. In the provinces ‘where corporations are mostly located the people in secondary industries in- creased their eamings 121 per cent while the percentage increase fn primary industries was only 09 per cent. (The figures ara taken from Canada at War No. B). Gov- ernment policy must have favour- ed corporations and secondary in- dustries during the war or why the greatly proportionate increased es are favoured in policy, and are lo- cated at central points, the taxes collected belong to the whole peo- ple who support them. Certainly such taxes are either passed on to consumers tn a sellers market or passed back to the producer in a buyers market. It matters not to a corporation what the amount of the taxes-all the people pay them. The corporsmns see to that. The labour employed in war- time was taxed where it was ~10- cated. The migration of labour- ers for war work from Prince Ed- ward Island was about equal to the enlistments. Practically no war work was located in the province. The national. income from i941- 1044 increased 33.6 ber cent in Can. ads but onlv 11.0 per cent on Prince Edward Island.

Post-war ex- penditures on Prince Edward Is- land should be much larger be- cause matertnls purchased provide labour in other provinces. Sim- ilarly, agriculture should be kept prosperous to enable farmers Io purchase. Farmers‘ needs are tre- mendous as machinery, buildings, land, tools, vehicles are greatly deteriorated. The cost of public welfare, edu-_ cation, electricity, etc., is greater inI rural areas than in urban areas. and consequently rural aréas do not; benefit from these services to the- tiegree they should. This merits! special consideration in a rural- community like Prince Edward Island. It is obvious that a rural prov- lnce like mine depending as ltr does upon the land, can never hope] unassisted, to provide an ecluca-‘ tional service cqual to that in communities having varied re- sources and industries. An im- proved program of education should, of course. and would keep larger numbers of young people ong the land. It cannot, however, keep all. Now. if a province has its own industrial centres to which its young people are drawn, then equalization of educational privil- eges is a problem of adjustment between urban and rural districts. If, however, as in the case of Prince Edward Island. many young people, after receiving their edu- cation, must leave the province ul- together to find employment in the centres of industry. then education becomes extremely costly in terms of benefits accruing to the prov- incc. Surcly there should be some recompense. Dcctor J. E. Lattimer in his report on "An Economic Survey of Prince Edward Island", puts the matter very succinctly thus: "The the greater tho need to restore the balance. It is the duty of the group to make sure that no area goes without schools and other services. Where centralization takes workers and earners away from the province altogether it follows that this question enters the Federal ficid. Federal funds for educational purposes would in this case be.ns fair and equitable as they are’ necessary." more centralization Other Drawbacks rural areas the government increase taxes. Thc land values have not increased in thirty years in dollars and the dollar has tit-preclated. The Fam- ily Allowances, Old Ago and Blind Pensions, the Dependents Allow- ances arc not taxable and the vet.- crans are largely cxcuscri from tax- ation. Labourers who rcuut‘ money to their families are taxed lIl the Province they work in. Liquor rev- enues are snrall under a Prohibi- tion Act. and if Prince Edward Is- land be criticized for not taxing liquor salcs wt- may say that a rc- cent act to uracil up sale of legal liquor was vetoed by the Governor of the Province. and he is ap- polntcd Federally. It is said thc Assembly cannot now proclaim thc Act. Of course, prohibition crr- ccuraged a new kind of home han- dicraft which gives. considerable ‘concern to Federal Excise Officers. A Federal loss of possibly half a million in taxes occurs yearly. Since the Dominion-Provincial Tag Agreement was made in 194i. there has been a great increase in taxcs collcclctl. To show how r-npld the increase we need only compare 1038 and i940. In that period taxes on individuals in- creased thlrteen times and taxes on corporations increased five times. This indicates a new ar- rangement is necessary as a com- pensutlon. The Government of Prince Ed- ward lsland is a frugal one. The deficits are growing larger year by year due to unavoidable expend- litures. In the present fiscal year. lthe deficit is estimated at $400.- 000.00. .The Province has the low- test per capitu debt in Canada. The tCivll Service has only half as lmany employees according to HJOMIIHHOII as several of the prov- .In j cannot noes, and salaries are very much lower. As an example of the fru- gality of the Government, the pay for labourers on Government roads ,was only 25c an hour until 1944. when it was slightly increased. This example will explain why a minimum wage law of 50c an hour would be opposed on Prince Ed- iward Island. _ , The rintary industries 0n Prince wuvd Island do not Yet see the need of n Workman!

Risks of accidents in primary industry is several times greater than in sec- ondary industry. . s Fewer Government Aida THE CHARIDTTETOWN GUARDIAN PREMIER J. WALTER JONES Agriculture is not able to afford cv-cn county representatives. The poverty of the government pre- cludes it. Farmers get along and quite efficientlyr too. without many of those government aids extended and considered necessary all other provinces of Canada. I have spoken at length of our claims‘ for equal treatment anti especially emphasized the great. {disabilities of war-time. I have not yet stressed the necessity of a compensatory allowance for the post-war period. But I have shown that agricultural areas should re- celvs treetement equal with other areas. and when goods are manu- factured and purchased on Prince Edward Island providing laboul outside the province, more goods should be delivered to the prov- ince on an adjustment. If farms on Prince Edward Is; land are to have electricity, they should be assisted Federally. If we raise the health and welfare standards aslstance again is dlcated. VOCQHDIIEI Training should be Federally supported. Education- al improvement could be achieved by a Federal grant to each prov- ince without lnfrlnging on Prov- incial right of control of. the currr- culum and school management The Housing Act provisions should be extended to high schools and how s country like Newfoundland cm make great progress in war- time, declaring huge surpluses, when a province like Prince Ed- ward Island actually declines in war-time.

Would Welcome Experiments I might eloquently urge that the Federal Government could make a point of using us better. or at least use us as well as other prov- lnces, for we contribute a good deal in men and materials which are valued in other provinces. I‘. might be that because of our in- sular position. because we are email, because we have a really well-bred lllfl homogeneous popu- latlon, we could be used as an ex- perimental area to try out new ideas in health. public welfare and education. The province ls willing to be a pilot plant for such trials. The Family ‘Allowance plan was first tried on Prince Edward Is- land. I suggest more extensive ex- periments be undertaken. The Province would be pleased to cooperate also if the Island were used to experimtnt with sup- erior types of animals and plants Potatoes, for example, are freer of disease than elsewhere. and al- ready rnore than half the certi- fied seed in Canada is produced on Prince Edward Island. Thc cattle are the freest from disease in Canada. and Tuberculosis and Bangs Disease- practically do not exist. The quality of hogs and poultry is six times as high as some other provinces, in the two top grades There is a great oppor- tunity to mr-k-e this small well- tlefihed area an experimental plot for the development of superior types of plants and animals, anti thus Prince mward Island would benefit, because it is small and because it 1s an island, and Can- ada as a whole. and other coun- tries, would benefit by being able ones’ Address resented with almost all Prince dward Island by the Mother Country in 1757.

Loyalty with them is an over- ruling passion. There 1s a rivalry between the opposrng political parties as tn which can most ef- fcctivclyl express their loyalty" The clear intent of Confczlcra- tion was for each province to ilave a fair share of the resultant com- mercial benefits.

Confederation Terms In the Confederation Treaty 011 which the British North America Act is based, clause 2 states, "the system of government best adapt- ed under existing circumstances to protect the diversified interests of the several provinces and secure efficiency, harmony and perman- ,communttv centres. l It is estimated that 25 per cent of the farm homes on Prince Eo- wartl Island are in need of rehab- rilitaticn. If the provisions of the jFarm Loan Improvements Act .1944 are not considered 'to besuf- flcient, the Government of Prince Edward Island would recommend. that Section III of the National Housing Act be broadened to irr- clude loans at low rates of inter- est and payable in a manner corr- sistent with the returns of the farmer from farming operations for the purpose of taking advant- age of rural electrification — such funds would be used for the purpose of installing electric wiring ur houses and outbuildings — electric water supply equipment bath- rooms - septic tanks electric equipment for barns and house- hold applianccs — small household refrigeration plants for storage of firm produce - installation of modern household heating sys- tcms — rural telephones - radios. The provisions should also pro- vlde for removal and replacement of obsolete housing and outbuild- ings. Tourist ‘Traffic There will probably be a great development of tourist trade on Prince Edward Island. Even in wor-timc, without an advertising campaign, every available room in the province of Prince Edward Is- land is trrlzen by tourists. What provision in the Housing Act pro- vides for tourist accommodation in National Parks? We believe that a new section should be added to the National Housing Act, making funds avail- able is hospital boards at low in- terest rates, to supply modern fac- ilities and equipment. All six hos- pitals on Prince Edward Island are now supported by public subscrip- tions, with the exception of a small government grant for mainten- uncc. Wlrcn municipalities are given grants for acquisition of lands. for low rental housing projects. due credit should be given for the street system and over-all serv- ices, such es sewage disposal, water-works plant, fire and pol- ice protectlon, and other services provided by the municipality. When grants-in-aid are given provinces they should not be given wholly on a population basis. The Technical Education grant of for- mer years adopted the principle of first allocating a sum for man- rrgeme t. set-up and divided the re- mainder of the grant by popula- tion. An example oi the unfair- ness of a population division ls shown in the Physical Fitness grant where s. division of $250,- 000 gave Prince Edward Island Just $l,8M.00 per year. Natural“! no action could be taken with such a small amount. The Vital Problem I hope an adequate picture of conditions on Prince Edward Is- land has been presented. There is no doubt but that tranmorlation to the mainland is the vital prob- lem. Transportation is at least fifteen years behind conditions as they obtain in other places. Truck ferry service must be provided. coastwlse traffic in ships must be encouraged. Newfoundland -- our neighbour - has built or is build- ing now some eighteen ships to berve the Colony, and has com- plete Cold Storage facilities at right points for fishermen. with :1 total of fifteen projected. Why no‘, such advantages for Prince Erl- l The Provincial Department of ward Island? It is a matter of keen interest cncy." This was the plan outlined for a Federal government. Also in clause 2, lS “provision for the admission ‘into the Confederation on equitable terms of Newfound- land. Prince Edward Island. North West Territcrles and British Col- umbla.“ I ask if Prince Edward Island's [interests are efficienlly and per- manently prcnected or if the in- clusion of Prince Edward Islandi made cu permanently equit- was able terms? Clause 28 states spec- Prince Edward Island was a-bou: one-half or a little more. of that of British Columbia and Ontario. At earner for every 10 1-2 people. while for Canada as a whole there was one wage-earner for every fivc people. with half the yearly earn- ings twice as nlnnv people were dependent upon them. It is no’ only the low wages. but the incl: of wage-earners in proportion to population that rnaku for inequal- ty. 1938 Brief Endorsed 1 In the "Cisc of Prince Edward Island" prcsrnted to the Roy's‘.
