AUDITOR'S REPORT The IOIIOWIIIg report by Morell and Company, Auditors, uu the graphs appearing recently in the Press in connection with a report on civic affairs prepared by the Junior Board of Trade, vras read by Coun. Chandler: llis Worship the Mayor, and Members ol the City Council, City of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. Gentlemen: We have made an Analysis of the Report concerning civic affairs of txe City ol Charlottetown prepared by" me Civic Affairs COIIIIIHHCG of the Junior Board of Trade of the (my of Charlottetown. As this Rie- port was published in the daily HCWUPEPCFS of the City, we consider it nuns-able to express an opinion 1"(3.;i1llil1g certain statements con- tained in the Report, due to the fact that such certain statements are, in our opinion, somewhat mis- leading, and may prove detrimen- tul to the future credit of the City. Our remarks are therefore not, in tendrd to be construed as condemn- ing the special study oi civic alf- fairs by the Junior Board of Trade, but. are for the purpose only of presenting what we consider to be the true state of affairs in certain resDecis. Revenue Years I921 to I939 (Inclu- sive) The graph included ln the Report and termed Revenue graph, fr. not a Revenue graph, but is a graph sE-oiviitg total Receipts, based upon tlze information contained in the Annual City Reports, which were proven unreliable by the Special Investigation made in i939. The terms "Revenue" and "Receipts" are entirely different, but the mak- ers of this graph have regarded IIICSO entirely different items as being the same and this misinter- pretation has been the basis for :1 statement. or remark, which is not justified by the facts. ‘The Revenue for the year includes items of cur- rent income earned or assessed in that particular year, although not, llLCC:$lll'ii_\' received in cash in that particular year. The Receipts for the year are the actual cash items received during the year, even 141011811 some of these receipts repre- sent items applying to previous years. The graph termed Revenue should have been termed Total Receipts. In the Annual Reports, the Receipts tci" each year should have been presented in two Statements one showing ‘Current Receipts and Dis- bursements‘ and the other show- ing ‘Capital Receipts and Disburse- ments‘. But the Annual Rleimrts con- tained only one Statement in this respect, ‘Total Receipts and Dis- bursements,’ althouji the distinc- tion between Current and Capital is of great importance in Municipal matters. C...equently' the graph '" zparcd by the Junior Board of Trade and termed Revenue is a. graph of To- tal Ihceipts, which in quite a dif- ferent matter. This may be clear- ly shown by assuming an excep- tionally large debenture fssue to be made in a particular year The graph would show the Receipts for mat year to be abnormally" large, assuming receipts for other sour- ces to remain near norn-ial. The readers of the graph would natur- ally gain the impression that the particular year in question was a good year, but this would not neces- sarily" be the case. However, if the graph of the Jun- ior Board of Trade had been made up on the basis of ‘Current Re- ceipts,’ it, would have shown an increase in ‘Current Receipts’, that. is, in tux collections, licenses and other sundry items, over the per- iod, which is quite at variance with what, the Report. states, to quote: ‘It will be seen from this (that is, the Revenue graph), that through- out the entire period Revenue has shown no increase whatever, .ny variations in the yearly level bc- ing merely temporary fluctuations." The phrase, "the entire period," is the period 1921 to i939 inclusive. Such a statement seems to us to be definitely at variance with the facts, as by means of analysis, it may be prove-n that Revenue has Increased by at least ninety percent during the period 1921 to 1939 inclu- sive Direct null-r Yell}. m2 ill ma (inclusive) ‘fills graph mount. expended for purposes of Direct Relief each year from i932 to i930. But. as the Dominion and Provincial Governments each con- tributed a certain amount, which varied from year to year as the cost of Direct Relief varied, the net. cost of Direct Relief to the Citv each year was therefore the differ- ence between the total amounts ex- pended for Direct Relief and the amount received from the Govern- ments. The net cost of Direct Re- lief ls the important factor to the taxpayers. as it is the net cost. that must be paid by the taxpayers in the form of taxes. In 1939 an agree- ment was completed with the Dom- inlrn and Provincial Governments whereby they agreed to pay eighty percent of the Direct Belief OOIVI shows the lfltal i? of the City, such colt: not to include costs of administration, such agree- ment to take effect an April 1st, 1939. This arrangement has result- ed tn a substantial decrease in the net cost of Direct Relief to the City. The graph of the Junior Board of Trade is therefore, in our opinion, somewhat misleading in that it does not take into consideration the net cost of Direct R/ellef to the City. MORRELL AND COMPANY Nov. 5th, 1940. The following is the text of file report given by City Clerk J. A. Fullerton. Chairman of the Hous- ing Committee: Housing Report To His Worship the Mayor and Members of the City Council. Your Housing Commission, on looking over the various accounts against the properties held by sev- eral parties under the Housing Loan Scheme. find that there ls a very indifferent attitude assumed by some of those living in these properties. There are fourteen accounts, one of which is paying a monthly in- stallment as set down by the orig- inal loan plan. Six property hold- ers under this loan are making on- ly partial payment while the rest are ignoring their payments lio- giether. This means that they are living in properties, the deed o. which is lteld by the City. absolute- ly rent, free Not only rent free, but some are also somewhat in sir- rears in taxes.

Dr. Yep inquired if Harper recalled saying "We might as well be hon- est. I had s drink and Dsyle, you had two."

The Captain staggered back to the after bridge, to attempt to take control of the ship from there. But this, too, yvas shot, away. He made his way back to the main bridge. and, the officer said, "nobody saw him after that." He and the ship went down together. By this time, the Jervis Bay had been hit several times. She could travel only in a straight line be- cause of the damage to her steer- lng equipment. And she couldn't get her guns to bear on the enemy because she was heading straignt for him, and her forward gun had men put out. of commission Nazi Relentless She was aflume and down by the stcrn as the order to abandon ship was given.

"she was throwing star shells for illumination." While the survivors drifted in the lifeboat: and rafts, two of them died of wounds suffered during action. Another man died a the Swedish vessel.

The Jar vis Bay's surgeon had been wound- ed in the fight. Most of the merchant. cruisersi men were "more or less" wounded,| the officer said. "Almost everyone‘ had some shrapnel wounds." he do- claxed, but most of these were slight. He eimlained the men's clothing for the most part stopped the shrapnel. Pulses Crew Praising the fighting qualities of the crew, the officers said the men were "marvellous." At least two- thirds, he said, were recruits who had never been in battle before, but. they hsd fought, like veterans. "It was really astonishing," ha said. "One man on the forecsstle head didn't hear my order to leave. He stood there alone, camly con- tinuing about his duty while shells fell all round. Then, when someone brought the order to his attention, he took off his ear-phones, laid Lhem down carefully and made his way to the boat without a. trace of haste." Admiralty Statement IDNDON, NOV. l2—(CP)—-'I‘he Admiralty issued this statement Tuesday night:- “It. can now be stated with cer- tainty that all except nine of the ships in the convoy attacked by an enemy surface raider on the night 0f Nov. 5 escaped. "The convoy consisted of 38 ships of which one had dropped astern. It will be remembered that the German high command an- nounced that the whole convoy had been destroyed. It is possible that some oi the ships still miss- ing may be safe. "Phat nearly three quarters of this large convoy escaped destruc- tion at: the hands of the powerful German raider was due to the high degree of efficiency shown by the captains of the merchant vessels in scattering and making use of smoke, and to the very gal- lant action of the armed mer- chant cruiser, HMS. Jervis Buy (acting Capt. ESF. Fegan EN.) which was escortin the convoy. "Full details of ibis action are not yet available but it is known that HMS. Jervis Bay steered for the enemy and engaged her with greatly inferior armament. thus enabling the majority in the con- voy to make good their escape. "I-LMS. Jervis Bay continued to engage the enemy after she had been severely hit and was burn- int: furiously. Nearly two hours after the beginning o! the engage- ment an explosion was seen to take place on board EMS. Jervis Bay and it is regretted that: she must be considered lost. “It is known that 65 survivors of HMS. Jervis Bay are on board a merchant ship. The next of kin of casualties will be informed as soon as the facts can be ascer- talned. "The following 24 ships of this convoy have now arrived in port: "Aondotia, Andalusian, Cornish City, Empire Penguin, James F. Magulre, Danae II, Csstillun, Briarwood, Varoz, Atheltemplar. Lancaster Castle, Dan-y-Bryn, Athei Empress. Oil Reliance. Sol- nonn. Hjnlmsr Wessel. Emil Franc- lllli- Presier. Delhi, Angitiki, Anna Bulgari, Delphonuis, Cordelia, Pacific Enterprise." In an earlier bulletin the Admir- alty indicated British convoys are moving without serious losses, de- spite intensified German aerial, submarine and surface raider at- tacks at sea. The Admiralty nld l: British merchant ships totalling 66.600 tons were lost in the week ending Nov. 3-4. but that total included the Empress of Britain, 42,348 OHS. Other shipping losses In that week were: four allied ships to- talling 5.408 tons and one neutral vessel of 1,583 tons. China A Stauneh Ally 0f Britain Says llr.
