He said one of the recommend- ations of that Commission was that each Pro '-ce should have enough revenue at its command. under :ll circumstances to carry out all phases of Government ea- trusted to it. The "ommission also recom- mended that provincial debts could be handled more advant- ageously by the Federal Govern- ment because it could float loans at a better rate.oi interest than the Provinces. - "These recommendations were never carried out by the Federal Government. they were all wash. ed up at the .1945 conference. I believe the Federal Government was wrong at that time," he said, Among other things the Com- mission felt it was not wise to make grants specifically ear marked for education. The Premier said this Province lost several hundred thousand dol- lars when the gross national ipro- duct dipped. He said we would regain this amount when the G NP came back up again.

Bell featured second reading of two Acts for raising money on the credit of Consolidated funds which came under discussion in the Legislature yesterday. Both bills were introduced by the Provincial Treasurer. Hon. . Earle MacDonald who. explained that the first would give the Gov- ernment permission to borrow up to three million dollars for the pur- pose of taking care of a two and a quarter million dollar deficit and a bank overdraft which would bring ,the total close to the 33,000,000 mark.

Mr. MacKay said the retirement age was not a change in the act -- it had always been there. He re- minded the members that this clause provided a very convenient means for the Department to get rid of some foremen who were un- desirable for the position. William A. Acorn (Liberal), First Kings thought the presence of a good assistant enginee be enough without a highway foreman. He claimed that in some instances these men showed very little inter- est in their jobs and when remind- ed that certain maintenance or re- pairs should be made. often he - lectcd to have it done. He sugges - ed doing away with the position. Hon. Dougald MacKlnnon said that there was no highway foreman in the Fourth District of Queens for the last eight years. He said that it seemed like a satisfactory arrange ment. BETTER SYSTEM The Minister explained that a maintenance truck with three men looked after all the repairs in the district. He would put this system away ahead of the supervision under a highway foremen. Hon. Mr. MacKay agreed with Mr. Maclfinnon that such a system seemed satisfactory. He pointed out however that the maintenance costs in the Fourth District were tsllghtly higher than in other dis- r cts Harold Smith (Llherall. Fourth Queens said the maintenance crew were often engaged in construct- ion work which could well account for an increase if it were charged to maintenance. devoted to these three areas". he said. At the same time the Premier gave assurance that work would not be completely stopped in oth- er areas. He said that many of, the lines still to be completedl were short and could be managed by smaller crews while the larg-E er crews would be used in the longer lines. . Mr. G. E. Seville (Liberal).l Fifth Kings adjourned the debaie.' l psrtment's intention to do away with highway foremen he wanted assurance that a maintenance crew would replace them. "We are not -. gsiing to do without both". he add- l e Hon. M.L. Bonnell pointed out l that the Act states. "a highway foreman may be appointed". made it optional for a district to - decide whether they wanted one or not. He could not see the need for any further delay in discussing the subject and moved the section. WINTER ROADS In dealing with a clause relating to the breaking of winter roads. Harvey Douglas (Liberal), Second Kings asked the Minister if the practice of appointing road over- seers was still carried out. He said many districts were finding it hard to get regular mail delivery when the roads were not kept broken for them. Mr. MacKay said it was the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard of our people to complain they were not getting mail while they sat at home and waited for some- one to come and tell them that ihe road had to be broken. R.R. Bell said this was a serious matter. "People will not go to break roads now because there is nothing to make them do it. There is a clause in the Act providing a penalty for anyone who will not go to break roads when they are order ed to but the trouble is. there is no one to order them". he said. Mr. Maclfay said that no tamer was willing to act as an overseer. He did not blame them. "I wouldn't act myself if I were asked". he said. "Who is going to penalize these people who refuse to break roads. I'm sure i'm not". R.R. Bell: "You are the Minister and it is up to you to do lt". Mr. MacKay: "Yes. and I'm here and you're there". Mr. Bell suggested that if the act was not going to be enforced why have the clause in it at all. Pro- gress was reported on the bill which will be discussed in com- Harvey Douglas (Liberall.
