In the early days of the Island looms were busy and the skilled hands ‘of the WLJIBTI were at work producing cloth, blankets and other fabrics woven from Island wool. Woolen mills at Charlottetown and Tryon have long since gone out of ration.

Bartering Pro - position Is Raised (C. P. Cable) (By Guardian's Special Wire) LONDON, April 8.—'I'he question of promoting trade between Great Britain and Canada by bartering farm produce against Welsh anthra- cite was raised in the House of Com- mons this afternoon. D. J. Colville, Parliamentary Secretary for Over- seas Trade, told a questioner that so far as he was aware, no concrete proposal to which eflect could he given had yet been advanced. ‘The Secretary added that while the disadvantages of “trade by bar- ter" were obvious. if any practical scheme were submitted for conduct- ing by barter a considerable volume of trade which could not be finan- ced by any more normal methods, he would be glad to consider whether there were any means by which it could be facilitated. A N.S. Legislature Endorses Cancer Fund (CI. By Gusrdhn’: Special Wire) HALIFAX, April s-Premier An- gus L. Macdcnald and Opposition leader Gordon s. Hazrington Joined in the Nova Sootia legislature to- day in voicing support of the cari- cer fund isimched in Canadi on the occasion of the King's Silver Jubilee. ‘ ‘sisch family should send $1 to Indy Hessborcugh, the Premier suggested. The Opposition leader declared “r10 wiser decision" could have been made than that of un- dartsklng to raise a. fund for the control of cancer. ‘Ihe following eddies on “Civic Problems" was delivered by His Worship Mayor Kennedy at the notary luncheon yesterday: /"We have a nice little city of some 18000 people with practic- ally 30 miles of streets of which iamilesarepevedwesrewell equipped with Churches and fair- ly well equipped with schools. Be- ing the Capital City we also have many government buildings and are added to yearly. There is, I am sorry to say, a slight draw buck to this condition. Govern- ment buildings as you know are exemptod from taxation and so as privato properties are pus ‘ ’ by the government we lose revenue thereby. We would like govern- msntsto take this into consider- ation when we come to present ‘any claim before than to which we consider we have a right. In fact counting government and re- ligious properties and schools and other such properties there is practically $5,000,000 worth of property in cur city exempted from taxation. According to our I034 re- port we have taxable real estate valued at $6,467,450. also personal property valued at 82.700360. total $9,168,210, with a tax rate of 2%, $183,364.20. Oui- fixed charges to- talled $114.8il0, leaving the balance for aIl other ordinary expenditure which shows clearly that after providing for our fixed charges we have a very small amount avail- able for the City's operation and so long as we continue to borrow money these fixed charges will continue to grow. Financial Poitier: “In comparison with nearly all other municipalities of Canada our financial position is good, in fact I may say excellent. but observe I said “in comparison." Like other municipalities we are yearly adding to our in’ tedriess which means an annual. increase in our fixed charges. It is the yearly in- crease in the fixed charges the interest and sinking funds on out- standing bonds and other obliga- tions, slow in the case of some cities like our own. alarmingly rapid in the case of others, which is the disquieting feature in the financial situation of our Can- adlan municipalities today. We are faced with an increasing number of children in attendance at our schools, which means of course. increased expense. Greater de- mands for more pavement and other street work due to increased number of motor cars and greater demands for health, public lib- raries, social services and what all. What wonder that civic bud- gets are everywhere out of bal- ance. But far overshadowing these in its drain on the City's ex- chequer is the payment of unem- ployment direct relief, of which as you know the Federal and Provin- cial Governments and the City contribute one-third each. From 1932 to 1935 inclusive the sum of $117,200 was spent to date. "In addition to this we expended for unemployment relief ‘work mainly for pavement from 1932 to 1935 $89,400 to date. How has the money been provided to meet these expenditures, simply by borrow- ing, This system of borrowing to meet these demands was inaugiir- ated in the early years of the de- pression when it was believed it would soon pass away. But it is still with us, and the borrowing goes on. I need not tell you Gentlemen it is financially an un- sound method of what has now become a current annu~1 r~r- =~~. And as I said before. the borrow- ings every year increase the fixed charges. This course if persisted in has only one end-insolvency. Conference at Montreal “And let me tell you, Gentle- men. many of the municipalities of Canada are insolvent today and ct‘- "s find bankruptcy staring tlwu in the face. But what, you will ask. are we to do? There are several things which may be done. I will name a few. They are: (l) Lighten the burden of relief costs. (2) Increase the assessmcn‘. (3) Increase the tax rate. In our City it is very low, belrvr only 2'1 wwch is from 25% to 100% lower than in any other city of its s':ie in Crriada, many having a rate 4% or more. (4) Find new sources of revenue. As regards the first it is absolutely imperative that this burden of relief be removed from the shoulders of the municipalities. The conference of Mayors of Can- ada held recently in Montreal at which I was in attendance repre- sented to the Federal Government that they should assume the full burden of municipal relief. With this resolution I am in hearty ac- cord. There is every reasoxi why this should be done. Firstly the Dominion Government has recog- nized unemployment as a national emergencymnd a national respons- ibility by proposing legislation re- garding ‘ _....ent Further. the Federal Government insurance. lace riiiiaa. Civic "Problems p Discussed, By Mayor Eennedy A ation. It can impose revenues, ex- cise taxes, sales taxes and other similar irnposts on every article we eat. wear or use. Not only that- it has the power and exercises it of imposing income taxes at its discretion. “It is therefore very evident that the Federal Government is in the best position, indeed, I may say the only people properly to deal with unemployment relief The responsibility is theirs. the means are theirs and the duty is theirs. Let them do their dirty. Ideal Scluflon “Of course the ideal solution would be to have those on relief absorbed into privato employment. Normally many of the young men ofourIslandusedtogotothe West, to New England or other places to make their way in the world, but there is nothing there for them any more as conditions are far worse there than here, so ‘hey have to stay at home. 'I‘here is a tendency too for those whose homes are in the rural sections to drift into the city and get on the relief rolls. Some method must be devised of combating this‘. and I would suggest to the governments that they give this rnattor their earnest attention with a view to getting the unemployed at. least from the rural sections who have thus drifted to the cities re-esieb- lished on the land where they can earn for themselves an honest liv- ins. "The method of adding to our civic revmue by increasing the assessment or the tax rate or both needs no explaining. They are un- popular, but unfortunately they may ‘ necessary. I do not however recommend them at ines- ent. 811 “The best method ‘of 1m our financial position is that of finding new sources of revenue. There are many such which may be considered. First, if the City could obtain her share of the rail- way grant to which it clearly ll entitled it would be of great ls- sistance. The Provincial Govern- ment has hitherto taken all (if these, s. sum amounting to 040.000 a year. I would estimate that about one-third of the railway property on the Island lies within the City of Charlottetown and we are therefore entitled to one-fliird of this grant, We provide this property with police aid fire po- tection and, other civic services. is exempt from taxation and only fair that we shoidd something in return Amuemeist Tux "It would seem only right ta that we should get that portion the A usernent Tax which is ooh lected within the City; a. share at least of the gasoline tax on all sales made in the City should be ours, Many municipalities are em- powered hy their provincial gov- ernments to collect an income tal —why should we not have this power of imposing such a tax cc be given the right to obtain from the Provincial Government some part of the income tax which the! collect in the City?- “There is still another way thsL we could add to cur venue. our light and power utility is in the hands of a. foreign concern, the Associated Gas and Electric Sys- tem of the United States, which through many devious holding companies operate the Maritime Electric Company which sells light ‘and power to our citizens at ex- cessive rates.‘ It. is my belief that if our City could secure this plant at a proper figure and operate it as a public owned utility we could lower, the rates materially and. still have a. good revenue available from that source for our City. The City has recently at this last sit- ting of the Legislature been grant- ed power to evaluate this plant in all its phases and it is the inten- tion of the City Council to obtain the services of a wmpeteiit man and to proceed with the work as soon as possible. There is much more that could be said on this very important subject but time will not permit me at any further length."
