In compensation the Government will also pay Mrs. Wyand $8,000. She receives s. 2i years’ lease of her new premises st a. nominal rental, with the right of renewal.

The bill would authorize the Federal Government to make loans up to an aggregate of $30,000,000 to municipalities for the construc- tion of self-liquidating works at an interest rate of two per cent per annum. providing the provincial governments approve the projects and guarantee rslpayrmnt of prin- cipal and interest by the municip- Moncton Board 0f Trade Upposes Rail Unification Plan MONCTUN, N.

General Approval The bill, which Mr. Dunning said marked a new departure in Fed- oral legislation. was received with general approval by n11 parties in the House. It was Conservativ Leader Bennett who suggested the‘ under existing laws some of the provincial governments might not be able to give guarantees and municipalities in some provinces might not be able to borrow with- out special legislation. Mr. Dunning said the laws of the provinces varied so widely with record to municipal financing and ttuarimtees it had been found im- possible to draft a bill which would be efiective in all of them. 1t was honed the scheme would be so st- tractlve the legislatures might be called together for a. few days to enact legislation necessary to per- mit the requirements of the meas- ure to be met. The bill authorizes the Minister of Finance. with the approval of the Governor-in-Council, to make agreements for loans to municipa- litles to enable them to pay the whole or part of the cost of con- struction or making improvements to or renewals of a municipal wat- erworks system, gas plant, electric liyht system or any other self-liq- uidating project. The principal conditions which must be met before a. loan can be made are: 1. The municipality must dem- onstrate to the satisfaction of the i Minister that any project to be financed out of the proceeds of a. loan is self-liquidating. that is that when completed it will result in an increase in municipal revenue suf- ficlent to pay the annual charges for interest on and amortization of the loan. 2. The construction of the proj- ect must be urgently required and assist in the relief of unemploy- merit in the municipality concern- a D. 3. The application for a loan and the prolsct to be financed out of the proceeds must be approved by the province in which the munici- pality is situated. 4. The province must 88TH t0 guarantee payments of principal and interest. ‘ As security for the loan the Do- minion will tgke the debentures d the mllDIClDZlliY and principal in- stalments and interest must be paid semi-annually.
