J. MoCann in reply to a question asked by J. Watson_ MacNaught. Liberal member _for Prince. Last year the amounts bet at Prince Edward Island racetrscks through pari-mutuels totalled s14.- 269 as compared with $12,470 bet Sums wagered at the ‘tracks showed a consistent in- crease from $3.029 in 1941 to last year's total. In the years 1841-1946 inclus- ive. total amount wagered in the Province was $48218. This com- pares to 559.650 bet on Nova Sco- tia tracks although Nova Scotias population is roughly six times that. of Prince Edward Island. It ls also four times the amount bet on New Brunswick tracks. where only $12376 was wagered in pari- mutuels during the six-year per- lod. "Doing All Right" Looking over the return with Mr. MacNaught in the Govern- ment lobby, Revenue MinisterMc- Cann scanned the columns of lig- UTCS, “Your province seems to be do- ing all right despite a small pop- ulutiott." he told the member for Prince. "Well, we can use the money.“ Dr. hfcCnnn pointed out the.‘ money collected on part-mutual bets in a number of the provinces consisted of three elements, om- ‘Cihlts bet on harness racing. am- ounts on running races and am- ottutr. bet on dog-racing. itfotttirlltied -oh—l;s—g’ov5 Col. 4i Students Demonstrate In Ghinese Gities uxunruo.

May l9--(CP)—A chnrge that the C.C.F. Govern- ment of Saskatchewan was "op- pressing" the people was made in thc Commons today by Walter Tucker. Liberal lender of that Prairie Province and Liberal member of Parliament for the Saskatchewan riding of Rosthern. In a vigorous speech in which 11c crossed verbal swords with C. CF‘. members. Mr. Tucker said that because of what was hap- pening in Saskatchewan he be- lieved thcre were some freedoms which should not be subject to o maiority of Parliament. These included freedom of the press. of education. religion, of assembly and freedom to a court hearing. freedom from being aro- itrarily detained and freedom from oppression by a. government. Mr, Tucker spoke in debate on a Government motion .to set up a committee to study human rights and fundamental freedoms. Entering the discussion shortly before the dinner recess. Justice Minister Ilsley said he felt the main task of the joint parliam- entary committee would be to study how Canada's obligations to the United Nations on matters of rights and freedoms could best be implemented. The committee also would have to study the legal and constitut- lonal position in Canada with rs- spect to rights and freedoms and to study Wnys of preserving re- spect for rights and freedoms in Canada. He did not agree that the purpose of the committee would be to draw up a bill of rights for Canada. More Nails-At Higher Prices OTTAWA. May 10—(CP)— Part of a move aimed at. bringing Canadian nail prn- duction up to 6.500 tons a month. the Prices Board to- night announced a. ceiling hike in the price of nails. effective tomorrow. Pro-war output was 5,000 f-ons monthly. The increase will amount to 50 cents a keg at the manu- facturers’ level and approxi- mately '10 cents a keg a retail level. A Board announcement said the revision in the ceiling prices had been authorized to offset a. substantial increase in the cost of kegs and other raw materials, and to enable the diversion of greater quan- tities of basic steel to nail production. Parliament At A Glance Justice Minister Tisiey said re- peal of the War Measures Act might endanger Canada's defence in the face of a sudden act. Prime Minister Mackenzie Kink indicated July 1 might be the target for prorogation cf Parlia- rnant. Health Minister Martin outlined new old age pension regulations which became effective May i5.
