A fur- lvther colnference. however, is slated for the end of March at which time we will once again present our arguments to the new proposed equalization for- mula which we hope will be rectified.“ Premier Shaw went on to any that if there is a continuation of "this kind of treatment." it will mean that our services on roads and education, health and other departments of govern- ment. will be seriously reduced. That is if we hope to pos any kind of a decent financial ‘U o In L‘. Pointing out that there is a great deal of talk about Con- federation today. Premier Shaw ‘ said “the Confederation that the .
