Problematical Tobacco Tax (hie of the many anrioinlies of Premier ("iniipliclls budget [iresentation in the Legisla- ture this year was his estimate of a $65,000 rev- enue for expanding public health services, to be derived from a ten per cent tax on tobacco and liquor. So far as liquor is concerned, the tax is of course nitly applicable to liquor sold legally through government stores, and the authority of the Government in fixing its own retail liquor price is not in question. In the case of the to- bacco tax, however, "this part." says the Act, Fshall come. into force on a day to be Appoint- ed for that [itirpose by a. Proclamation of the Lieutenant-tiuvernttn” As pointed out by the Opposition when the legislation was in committee, the legality of the tobacco tax in New Brunswick has yet to be determined by the Stipreine Court of Canada. Presumably n0 proclamation will be issued in this Province until that itizttter has been settled. In the event of an adverse decision, our to- bacco tax would be no more legal than the New irtinswick ittx on which it was utodelled. In any event. it itiay be itionilts before the Supreme Court of Canttrlri files judgment. So that por- tion of the lh'r-tiiicr's $435000 revenue estimate, based on tltc ns-tttitption of the legislation com- ing into rficct itittiictli:ttcl_v, is mere wishful thinking. ,lle should. howcvcr, come out better than he anticipntcl in his iinnttcitig of Falconwood in- stitutiott bv rcrtstrtt‘ of the (lpposititin amend- ill(‘lll, rt iliit: tttztiincitaitvc costs in that (le- partnit-nt by iiimflitfi. \\liilc (iovcrutnciit inc-in- hers deiiit-tl that there llilfl been any extravag- fitter‘ in proxitttts year»; it was ltighlj’ significant that thny -l‘d no: put the tttitcttdmcnt to a vote.

Those in authority in the ‘Association, therefore, sought to have the mea- sure withdrawn, but the Government, through ineptitude or gross carelessness, neglected to fol- low the correct procedure. The bill had to be re- ferred back to committee a third time, to be amended and re-ztincndcil. It has finally become law, but is it what the Fish atid Game Associa- tion has asked for? No one seems to know. However if the incident teaches such organiza- tions to entrust legislation in future to coni- petcitt hands, it will not have been altogether in vain.

Our Mayor stated some time ago that war contracts would be placed here 1n Charlotte- town and made other statements that gave the unemployed tropes of great. things to come. After waft:- iiis weeks here is what we find: relief discontinued, no city work. no war contract and no hopes for the future. How are the working men of this city going to exist? No one ls making any move to ob- tain work for our city men. The story of conditions among the un- employed of this city ls not o very pleasant one. ‘There are very mnny cases in dire need, for worse prob- ably than many tit. the head of al- fziirs are aware. It ls hard for the unemployed to understand that while Canada spends millions on our war effort and they send their sons to answer the col of Empire, we who are unable to serve ln our armed forces are unable no earn a decent living. (Our airport is filled with men from other ports of the Province, a great. many of them young men who should be in the imny or navy. others there through “pull" while our Char- lottetown men walk our streets un- able to earn enough to buy food for their children. Where is it, all going to end? Our labouring men are the most loyal in all Canada. ln the world ivould do woud be to cause trouble. EASTER.

We want to do our share 1n mg war effort but ‘we must also have work to keep our funflfes from Smfvlflk. Do the people responsible for the present. conditions know that there are mothers with small children who have gone weeks without milk and hardly enough food to keep body and soul to- gether. We can produce cases that would make our people here "gasp with horror". Our men could be working on our streets now cleiin- fng up, our streets ore a disgrace to any city). surely the Dominion Government; could be prevailed upon to ve us a relief project in lieu of o er contracts. Our men must have work of some kind and soon. ‘Those conditions have been kept from the public long enough. proper representations iveie made at Ottawa our Railway Wharf would be repaired and intr- bour improvements started, but as long as our officials do nothing things wlll continue as they are.
