In addition it secures for Canada. the benefits of the inter- mediate tarifl of Australia on six items or parts of items. Moreover, on commodities of great import- ance in Canada's export trade, Aus- tralia has adjusted her tariff to ac- cord our producersa greater mer- gin cf preference. On canned sal- mon for example we will get a preference of three pence per pound, on logs a preference of 10 percent ad valor-em, and on many classes of lumber a preference of two shil- lings per 100 board feet. On news- print paper Canada is accorded free entry and preference over for- eign paper is increased to 4 pounds per ton. “Thus the great bulk of commodities exported from Canada is guaranteed,.under the new a- greement, a substantial tariff pref- erence in Australia. All foreign countries are under the Australian general tariff. "In return, as set forth in schedule "A" to the a- g. ement, Canada will accord to Aus tralie. its British preferential tar- ifl and reduced rates or greater margins of preference on some 20 items or parts of items of the Can- adisnteriff. This compares with reductions on 20 items or parts of items, under the ugremeent at pres- ent in force. "Throughout the gotiations which have now culminated in the conclusion of e broad tradesme- ment, we have sought to adhere to the principle of diverting to each other trade, ‘whichat the present time, is being done with countries outside the Empire. For several years past Australian purchases of goods from foreign countries have averaged considerably more than $300,000,000 per ennum.

He reviewed briefly the expenditures of each department for the half-year. Out of more than $51,000 in out- standing taxes at the beginning of the year more than $26,000 had a1~ ready been collected, he reported. ‘rhere had been 22'! names on the published list of those with taxes in arrears on reai and personal property. Of that number only 33 remained on the list, and 17 of those had made arrangements for payment. The Dominion Govern- ment had already paid $5,000 of the $10,000 which is to be paid toward the building of the City Hall an- nex. . Councillor Kennedy for the Street Committee reported that the con- crete had. been laid on the Market Square, and that. asphalt would be applied shortly. Complaints had been received as to the condition of the lower end of Kent Street near the park roadway. The Councillor proposed that the section of the street be gravelled, es the dust was particularly bothersome there. Councillor Dougan asked if it were permissible to place a sign between the curb and the sidewalk on the street. The City Recorder stated that under the new by-law no sign can "be erected without the consent of the city engineer. Barons AND AFTER “As leader of the Liberal party, I want to say that one of the planks of the platform of the party if returned to power will be at least a reduction in the auto tax AND A DOWNWARD" REVISION OF TAXATION GENERALLY. 1 make this statement and repeat it so that there may be no mistake about itP-Hon. A. C. Saunders, as reported in Patriot of March l9, 1927. “My hon. friend now says, “We will reduce the taxes." Yes, as I say, Imitation! No initiative! Follow the beaten paths of the Liberal party. It has always been the case and I presume it always will be. We announced that we would make a reduction in auto tax AND MAKE A DOWN- WARD REVISION IN TAXES GENERALLY. So my friend had our policy; and, as I say, he wasn't able to in- itiate anything new himself and he makes the same an- nouncement now as I made the other day. We are very glad to know that he has come across now. It looks that it is worth while for us to point the way in which things he people of the Province will be glad to know thatwe, the Opposition, while small in num- bers, have secured that resultP-Hon. A. C. Saunders, as reported in lfatriot, April 6, 1927.

Masservey, stated that some of the sand had been procured at Bouris while the Government was return- ing about 300 tons of borrowed sand. Councillor Dougan believed that tenders should be called, while a number of others did not consider it necessary. Councillor McDougall for the Public Property Committee, report- ed progress on the City Hall annex. The locaYGwernment was willing to give an extension of time. No letter had been received from Ot- tawa as yet with respect to this. No immediate action might be ex- pected with‘ regard to the restora- tion of the old fort in the park. The Historic Sites Commission had replied that the matter had been left to the next annual meeting. The houses on the bathing beaches have been put in repair, and some- body has built a raft and diving stand at the beach. It was stated that the bathing houses were left unlocked this year, and were in a disreputable state. It was suggested that a capable young man be employed as a care- taker. This suggestiop Councillor McDougall expressed himself‘ ready to carry out if the Council so de- sired. Councillor Reardon asked why the public Library was closed on Satur- day aftemoons and evening. As the building was supposed to contain a public rest room it should be open particularly at the times mention- ed. Councillor Holman presented the police report which appears else- where. Adequacy of Police Force Following the acceptance of‘ the report the question of whether or not the police force was of suffi- cient strength was discussed at length. Chief Birtwistle in reply to questions reported that following the break into Taylor's jewelry store every effort had been made to locate the burglars. Two officers had watched the car ferry. Authorities had been notified at Summerside by phone, freight yards ‘had been searched. Certain men had been kept under observation at Summer- side- The numbers on the watches stolen had been obtained e. few days ago, Officers Doyle and Jay had been on duty at the time of the break. The Chief had immed- iately summoned Constables Bigger and Mecliiachern. In answer to the MEYOFB ques- tion as to whether it should be necessary to have extra policemen during the summer months, the thirty two and a half percent, 35 percent. Vegetable extracts or juices liquid mustards and veget- able sauces 15 percent, thirty two and a half percent and 35 percent. Pastas of fish, meat and vegetables, l5 percent, thirty two and a half percent and 35 percent, On dried. unpltted dates the duty will be free, two thirds of a. cent per pound and two thirds of a. cent. Dates not otherwise provided for, one cent per pound, one and three quarters cents and two and a half writs. Dried figs free, two thirds of a cent per pound and two thirds of a cent. The committee then considered item 120 respecting fish as follows: Anchovies, sardines, sprats, pil- chard and herring, “not including kippered herring" in sealed oon- tainers. packed in oil or otherwise, in sealed tin containers, the weight of the tin container to be included in thewelght for duty. (A) when weighing over twenty ounces and not over_ thirty six ounces each per box, 3 1-2 cents, 5 cents, 6 cents. (B) when weighing over twelve ounces and not over twenty ounces each, per box, 2 1-2 cents, 4 cents, 4 1-2 cents. ' (C) When weighing over eight ounces and not over twelve ounces each per box, 2 cents, 3 cents, 3 1-2 cents. 1D) When weighing eight ounces each or less per box, 1 1-2 cents. 2 cents, 2 1-2 cents. Hon. Peter Veniot protested that kippered herring should be included r in this class. The Prime Minister explained that the Norwegian Con- sul, had objected to klppered her- ring being in the same classification as sardines. Under the item as brought down in the emergency session it was interpreted as includ- ing kippered herring. Accordingly the item was reintroduced with kippered barring definitely left out. It would come under tariff‘ item l2 which bears an ad valorem duty which Mr. Veniot contended would not be as effective as the specific duty. The item covering was then passed.

(Special to The Guardian) BERLIN, July 13. - Germanyb desperate financial situation caus- ed an internal crisis today with emo ergency measures in effect by the government and leading bankers to prevent bank runs, panic and fur- ther closing of banks. It was apw parent that. only a substantial for- eign loan would save the situation and the indications were that the loan would be fortlicomink. The 1n- ternational Bank met at Basie, Switzerland, with American, British, French, Germs-n and other nationn alitics represented. Dr. Hans Lu- ther, President of the Raeichsbank flew there from Berlin with s. bro< posal which was expected to bring the necessary credit, possibly a $300,000,000 term loan with exten-i sion of $150,000,000 short term cred- its due this week. Germany, it was disclosed, has decided in her extremity to meet aa least half way the political demands imposed by France as the price o! French participation in a loan. A) trustworthy source said Luther tool: with him a German compromise proposal which, however, did not in- clude an agreement to cease build- ing the second German pocket cruiser as demanded by France. News that the United States fed- eral reserve bank might be willing to participate in the loan, had a. tre- mendously cheering eilect here. Orders Bank Closings BERLIN, July 13-President Paul p Von Hindenburg, acting under ex- traordinary powers, granted thq night tonight, ordered all blinks in Germany to remain closed Tuese day and Wednesday. The Presid- ent's decree gives the Government blanket authority t0 declare "bani: holidays,” thus making a new de- cree unnecesary if on Wednesday, night it should appear expedient to keep the banks closed throughout the rest of the week. Will Renew Credit BASEL, Switzerland, July 13- The directors of the world bank for international settlements late to- night agreed unanimously to red new the world bank's participation in the rediscount credit of $100,000; 000 accorded to the Rleichsbanl: June 25.
