Graham and Raymond bring- ing the boxes or half cases to Al- berton where they were disposed of. She stated the factory operat- ed only in the day time and that the officers bothered them plenty. She charged that the officer "would have to be blind not to see what was going on at Alberton South last yegr" and told of the poachers method of informing one another of the approach of a fish- ery oflicer, painting out, however. it was difficult for an officer to

, catch a person canning illegally.

She was somewhat reluctant to give additional evidence remark- ing "that she heard before slle left home this mcming there would be sonle black eyes

for what my boys alld I told here yesterday.“ ' Mr. Justice Leblanc told the

witness that. she was sworn to tell the truth and that if ally allega- tions had been made against per- sons which were not. correct these persons would be given the oppor- tunity to come before the Com- missioner Blldlltfll them.

She expressed le opinion that i.lle destruction of traps by patrol boats simply made the peaches poorer but did not atoll the 1116081 fishing and said "fishermen simply have to poach. they cannot make sufficient nloney in the two-months open season to live the rest of the year.’ _

Although she was flrm in her belief that all the fishermen of Albcrtcn South fished llegaliy she

was of the opinion that none of them brought berried lobsters s- ahore intentionally. , ’

Tails of Operation

Michael Kinch. husband of the previous witness was the next wit- ness. He told of the Kinch 006i‘- ation at Goose Harbor last yell!‘ and of their illegal fishing and canning for many years back. Mr. Kinch stated that at Goose Har- bor a large red and white fiat; W15 used as a signal to the boys 011i’ fishing when an officer was there and further saida sharp lookout from the top of the hill was always keipt when the factory W” WWW?‘ ing during the closed sea-loll-

Asked by Commission Counsel,

. Hon. n. r. s. Bridges. how they

disposed of the lobster shells the witness said they were taken away in o boat and thrown overboard. remarking "dead men tell no tales".

I-Ie stated his two sons fished durirg the closed season last year with about 90 traps and caught’ 8-D‘ prox‘mate1y 6.000 lbs. of ‘lobsters. I-Ie felt that present? P00001110 W55 worse than it was 20 years ago-

“D0 you tilink Inspector Palmer is a good officer?" _

“I sure do. He has no trends a- mong the fishermen and treats them all alike. Although he nevi‘? caught me he was Plenty mum" some." _

Howard Clank followed Mr. Kllloh and gave evidence concerning the testimony of David Smith at Sum- nrer-sfde. He said that five cases of lobster taken by his son on ac- count from Smith had been 801d"? his brother. Artrur Clark. but pointed out it was not a common practice to accept lobsters on ac- count. althougil he hnd taken in addition a few brlxes from M155 Morel-ice Cnstin, Cane Wolfe mar‘ cllant, and James Klnch, Alberto“ sou,“ 135i, yenr, Those were sold to Arthur Clark and the money received credited to the account 0f the two.

Afternoon Session

In the afternoon the first Wit- ness was George Clark. 50h 01 Howard Clark. He said he was the operator of a truck ‘for his father and explained that David Smith had written to his father last year asking him fotake a few cases of lobsters on account. He and Aithur

had e to Smiths ome flllicilﬂlaroughtgotllle lobsters direct to Arthur Clark's barn used as a ware- house.

ing 30 years, the consolidated sinking fund of the City to be annually implemented to provide for retirement of liuql debentures at maturity.

The promoter explained that last year the City expended $81,000 on unemployment and street work. The 1937 estimate is for an ex- Pﬂlliilillfﬂ 0f 046.500 for perman- ent and relief projects, and $12,- 500 for direct relief.

Hon. Mr. LePage: "Haw much of this money has‘ been already expended?" '

Hon. Mr. Prowse: “$Bl,000,"

IIon. Mr. LePage thought the City was making a serious mistake in issuing debentures for relief Purposes. It was a very poor prin- ciple, It would be better to get revenue in some way.

Mr. Barbour asked ‘for thegross debt and sinking funds of the

City. He understood there were‘

$142,000 of uncollected taxes,which i

would Just wipe out the amount to be borrowed under the bill. .

Hon. Mr. Prowse said the City's debenture debt at the end of i036 W86 81.960100. The sinking fund his fox ranch. He stated lust year their lllesally packed lobsters had been Sllllllled with tile legal park- ed of Emerson Matthew and pre- vlouslv had shipped illegally pack- ed lob ‘Jrs th Fishery Limited.

‘D0 You wish to deny the state- ment of Mrs. Klnch that she saw you talking to Capt. Howard Arsen- ault while lobsters were being boil- ed in your fox ranch?’

“I cannot recall any such inci- dent bllt I cannot deny for I talk- ed with Capt. Arsenault several times. He used to come to my house to use the telephone.

Mrs. Kinch was recalled and questioned brieﬂy concerning the matter but wlls firm in her allega- tion and again Mr. Fraser did not deny the statement but. stated he could not recall it.

"He siatzd he was forced to pooch lobsters to make a living and was of the opinion all the officers per- formed their duty and when he was asked what he thought of In- specter Palmer remarked "He is a bad egg for the poachers."

“You say you have to peach lob- sters to live?"

"Yes: or starve."

"Was there anybody ever starved at Alberton South?”

"Nol-

Mr. Fraser told the Commiss‘oner that in the Spring of the year the fishermen done well to break even and that the only time they made any money was when they fished illegally‘. ' r

John C Matthew. the final wit- ness of the afternoon, said he was Secretary-Treasurer of Alberton Fishery Limited and told last year oi? felling Inspector Palmer the

firm had over 400 cases of lobsters ‘

at the end of the Spring season when they actually had only 100 cases. I-Ic said Inspector Palmer

counted the eases on the floor a- I

round 300 of which were empty and gave him permit for over 400 cas- es. He stated that later in the year he used the perm‘t to drip his own illegally caught and packed lob- sters as well as those oif others. The same procedure was carried out in 1905 and the witness re- marked “Maybe I should not be telling my secrets here):

“Were there any cases of lob- sters shipped without permit?"

"No, I had pemlit to cover all I shipped." _

“Is the destruction of gear an effective method of stopping poaching?"

“No, I do not think so.’

The witness estimated that a- round 75.000 lbs. of lobsters had been caught illegally by Alberton south fishermen last year and said his own catch was in the vicinity of 10.000 lbs. -

“If poaching was stopped what would be the result in your dis- trict?"

"It would mean o. lot of relief.”

Premier Mitchell Hepburn today demanded, and later obtained. the resignations of Attomey-Ganeral Arthur Roe- buck and Hon. David Croll, Min- ister of Public Welfare, Labor and Municipal Affairs.

Their failure to concur in the Government policy in "fighting ag- ainst the inroads of the Lewis or- grmlzatlon and Communism in general" created an “intolerable situation“ in the ‘Cabinet at I time "when Ontario was facilll l grave economic crisis." Pfcmlel’ Hepburn maintained. The strikers demanded recognition of the Unit- ed Automobile Workers of Americlr an affiliate of John L. IAWII’ Com- mltteg for industrial organization.

Both Ministers disclaimed any sympathy for Communism and re- cognized the Government's duty to maintain law and order, in their letters of resignation. From were. however. they dlllﬂﬂ! 501F913’ "m! plesent policy of the Government.

is $330,580.40, leaving a net bor- rowing of $1,829,519.51. They have improved their position consider- ably. They increased the taxes from Ito 2% per cent. Their de- ficit in 1935 was $47,883.44. Last year they came within $21,887 of balancing their budget. They are in hopes this year of reducing their deficit still further by care- ful saving. They have incurred expenditures in the past year for . relief purposes and they feel that [this has not anything to do with the ordinary expenditures of run- ning the city. While these, bonds are being ﬂoated for relief pur- poses, t.lle interest is being paid out of ordinary account.

Mr. Barbour: "It seems to me that the tar; rate now is not. ade- quate. The amount they are col- lecting on real estate and person- al property is $200,000. If the City goes on borrowing for unemploy- ment snd relief work without any capital expenditure, the first thing we know the Government will be called to stand back of their bonds."

The section carried without fur-

The bill to amend the Act to incorporate the Allister Murray Memorial Church was agreed toin committee without discussion.

The promoter explained that the bill was a consolidating meas- ure.

It was agreed to with minor amendments.

SOIIIC

INCOME TAXES

On motion of Premier Campbell House went into committee on an Act to assess, levy and col- lect taxes on income and personal property.

Sec. 1 provides that the admin- istration of the Act, the control and management of the collection

of taxes inlposed under tho Act,i

,ond of matters incident thereto, and of the officers and persons employed. shall remain vested in the Provincial Treasurer; that upon inpprovnl of the Lieutenant-Gov- ernor-lli-Council of an agreement between the Provincial ‘Treasurer and the Minister of National Rev- enue of the Dominion of Canada, and subject to its provisions, the said Federal Minister and the Commissioner of Income Tax are authorized to exercise in the place of the Provincial Treasurer such powers and duties speciﬁed in the agreement; that the Lieutenant Governor in Council msylnake any regulations necessary for the car- rying out of the terms of the agreement, and pay any expenses ‘ that may be incurred by the Min- I ister of National Revenue in cal-- ‘rylng out the provisions of the Act.

It was agreed to without dis- cussion.

Sec. 2 provides that "the in- come of every married person and unmarried person in loco parentis

~ up to and including $1,000. in ad- -‘ dition in $200.00 for each child or grandchild of the taxpayer under twenty-one.ycars of age and de- pendent on the tax payer for support, or twenty-one years of age or over and likewise depend- ent on account of mental or physical inﬁrmity; and the in- come of every other unmarried person up to and including $750.- 00; provided that the income of every soldier, sailor or‘ nurse who served overseas during the Great War or who took part in the South African Campaign, 1809- 1901, shall be exempt up to and including ﬁfteen hundred do!lsl's ln the case of married persons and unmarried person in loco parentis, and the sum of twelve hundred and ﬁfty dollars in the case of other unmarried persons for the period of ten years from the pass- ing of this Act; provided that this section shall not come into force and effect until a, date to be ﬁxed by the Lleutcnont-Governor-in- Council by proclamation."

Mr. Savife said he did not think it was fair to exclude soldiers who had not served overseas from the tax exemption.

I-Ion. Mr. Ila-Page: "some of them only had their uniform for a few days."

Mr. Hughes said there were other cases where men had served faithfully at home for the period of the war.

I-Ion. Mr. LePage said the sec- tion was in accord with federal regulations.

Premier Campbell said this was a new provision so far as provin- cial legislation was concerned. There is an exemption of $200 for every child. It has been suggested that this should be extended to $300. The federal exempt-ion was 8400

I-Ion. Mr. LePage believed the 8200 should be sufficient.

Hon. Mr. Prowse moved that it be extended to $300. His motion was lost on division 7-5 and the section carried without amend- merit.

LIFE INSURANCE

Sec. 3 increases the tllX 11PM"- ium income tax on life insurance companies from 1 to 2 per cent. _

The Premier stated thatin most of the western provinces this tax is 3 per cent. In Nova Scotla it is 2% per cent, in Ontario and Quebec I 1-3 per cent, and in New Brunswick a varying tax which averages about 2 per cent. There seemed no adequate reason. he said, why the tax in this province should be lolwer than in other pro- vinces. because the policy holders here are contributing to the high- er rate imposed in other provin- ces. whereas the policy holders in other provinces only have to con- trlrute to a 1 per cent tax frl this province. The l! eoliectedin this [roubles cannot conceivably sﬂeot the premium rights, the profits returned to policy holden. or even the dividends paid to the shareholders of the insurance com- panies. It smeared to the gov- ernment only right and just that the tax should be made approxi-

of taxation throughout Canada. M1‘. MacKinnon said that while he ﬂPDreciated the strength of the hunter's arguments. he would have to register his protest IlfJﬁlllSi l the principle of increasing llle tax to the proposed amount. I-Ion. Mr. Prowse: "I really think

that a Jump in the rate of 100 pel-

cent in any taxation is critirelv too high. Insurance companies in this province have a very small held. I don't think you could compare their taxation with ihe other provinces. The same insur- ance companies doing the same business in other provinces I13V(' not the same scope here. We are told by the insurance underwrit- ers that s certain percentage oi‘ the premiums is kept for expon- ses, and if an additional tax goes into effect in this province, there is the possibility of some of the smaller companies not being able t9 K949 lip their quota, and leav- ing the province. That means that their agents are going to be thrown out of eimploymgnt and that premiums paid on the insur- ance policies would hl-lve to be sent to other provinces. I think we should deal a little more Ian. iently st this time, alld not have the tax raised so high. I tilini: they should be given some consid- oration.”

Mr. Wright said it would not be fair to our own province to leave the rates lower than in other pm- vinces, Oul‘ own policy holders are paying the same rate of premium as the policy holders in the wosl, It was only reasonable. he fhouuhl. that the rate should be raised to 2 per cent.

Mr. Mustard said l1 hundred per cent incl-ease looked large. but in rculityit was only a smallincrease He could not see ally danger of the small companies closing up. Insurance agents ixere enterpris- "lﬂ salesmen: “Life insurance is a I101? proﬁtable bilsinoss and ihcrc is no reason why the branch of.

,fices, if they find the extra bin--

den is a hardship, cannot pass ii. on to their insurance hall-ills. 'l.'lll‘ll they can still pay the tax and rc- main here," he said.

Mr. Sdville said he understood the intention of the tux was to help the Sanitoriinn and other branches of health work in [he province. "All we do tmproteet the health of the peoilic is for the beneﬁt of these life insurance com- panies," he added.

The section carried without a division.

BANK TAXES

Sec. 4 changes the rate of bank tax. 11D t0 last year the lax paid by the banks was one-tenth of l p91‘ cent. This provision was rcadillst- ed by the Legislature last. veal". with the result that three of the banks were shifted from the onc- tenill to the one-eighth role. Ai- ter representations made on he- half of the bankers, it ivas (‘ml- sidered that a fairer method ivollid be to make the general rate onc- ninth.

The section carried.

CIIAIN STORES

' Sec. 5 amends the Act with re- spect to chain store iidXflllflll.

“Last year", the Prclniel" ex- plained, "we placed a. ccriiilll tax on chain stores. provirlillc" that i.lll.‘_\' should be assessed a. fill. Hill‘ of $2,000, subject to a reduction to 3 per‘ cent of‘ their gross turnover. The effect of the arilnillislralioll of this provision is that ccrfilln 0i‘ the chain stores simply ignore the tax. They do not make any rc- turns. They do not even pay the tax on the same schedule as they would have been liable for prev- ious to the amendment which we passed last year. The difficulty is that if we sue them ill order to collect the tux, they nliizhi. in some way escape that tax by proving that they are not. a chain store. or something to that eiTcct. arid they might get costs against the (‘rov- emment; whereas all the time illey would be liable for a certain am- oilnt of income tax under the or- dinary corporation rate. It is in order to avoid the necessity of making separate assessments, sep- arate demands, and issuing sepa- rilte writs that. the amendlncni is proposed. The effect of the rim- endment is that if a conlpanv is assessed as a cllllin store and they do not put ill ally appeal or de- fense and they are sued for the collection as a chain store, tllon. even although they may provclhnt they are not il chain stnrc, they can be made liable for the ordin- ary income tax for which they would be liable if they had not been assessed as a chain store"

Hon. Mr. LoPage: "In any case they have to pay costs?"

Premier Campbell: “That is the idea of the amendment. If they want to escape costs. tilny must pay what they are actually liable for.”

Mr. Jones asked hmv the Prem- ier arrived at the deﬁnition of o. chain store.

Premier Campbell quoted the definition in the Act, as one oi‘ a series 0d’ four or more branch stores.

Mr. Jones: "If all those blalllfh stores were within the province?"

Premier Campbell: "It would af- fect them Just the same."

Mr. Wright: "How mluly chaill stores have we in the province?"

Premier Campbell: "I don't know that. We have assessed several of them."

Mr. Wright: "I iim of the olllll- ion that a 3 per cent. tax on the turnover is too lllflh ll lll-Y °" chain stores. I feel lhlll ll Wt‘ taxed our own business moo at that high rate they would lll‘ WW- ing a great deal more than tilcy an paying at the present time. Possibly there is something in the argument that n. chain store com- puny is outside the pIOVlIlBP- but I have the feeling that a 3 P" cent tax is a very llllzll lll! ""0 should be lowered.“

Premier Campbell: "There may be something in my ll0f1. friend's contention, but we don't know. If these films will give us a return. the government is willing to take

into conﬁdential whether theta!
