Moscow Says Summit

Talks Delay U. S- Fault ,

By VINCENT BUIST

MOSCOW (Reuters) —~ Soviet Premier Bulganin accused the United States in a letter released here Friday night of deliberately delaying an East-West summit conference.

He told President Eisenhower that continued U.S. espousal of conference items “known to be unacceptable beforehand" is hold- lng up a top-level meeting.

Bulganin appealed to Eisen- hower to be more “realistic” about a conference agenda.

The letter, replying to one from Eisenhower Feb. 15, was handed over in Washington Thursday by Soviet Ambassador Mikhail Men- shikov.

REJECTS THREE ITEMS >

It flatly rejects three confer- ence items proposed by Eisen- hower. These are German reuni- fication. the situation in East European Communist countries and revision of t-he veto power in

, the United Nations Security Coun-

cil.

A delay in the talks also has been caused, he said. by U.S. re- fusal to reply on a number of what he described as concrete Soviet proposals.

Bulganin said there are “no unsunmountavble obstacles” to agreement on the renunciation

His letter covered all the main points of a memorandum deliv- ered in Washington a week ago. The in e m o randum, published Thursday night, proposed an agenda for the summit talks. ACCEPT ONE PROPOSAL

It included Russia’s acceptance of Eisenhower’s proposal to dis- cuss the use of cosmic space for peaceful purposes only.

Finecl $100 In Assault 'Case

A fine of $100.00 and costs or

30 days was imposed upon a resident of ll/Iiminegash when he was convicted of assault causing grevious bodily harm. The accused was also ordered to pay damages of $33.98 by Magistrate R. S. Hinton, Q. C. in Magistrate’s Court, Summer- side Thursday. - The informant was the ac- cused's brother-in-law, who de- clared he suffered a badly cut hand after the accused went wild with an axe during a ing spree.

low prices for registration, which we enjoyed for the last two years, came to an end on the 31st of _December. The writer, - feeling that we were entitled to a bet- ter deal -than - our American ‘cou- sins because of our location and the fact that our breeders could not obtain comparable prices for their colts and fillies, decided to place before the directions .a new proposition which would be continued for all time. It was as follows: “Complete applica- tions on foals born prior to Jan- uary 1st_-- $5.00; fees for. year- lings — $10.00; and thereafter, $15.00." - 7

This was strongly supported by directors Mccurdy and Dewitt, and our -native son, Joe O’Brien, certainly helped us with the re- marks he made; The vote was un- animous, and we hope -that our breeders will take advantage of the low pi‘-ice and, register year- lings and other ages.

HAVE ADVANTAGES

This province is known a-s “The Kentucky-of Canada”. and from the ,writer’s earliest recollection of horse racing,_ which was at .U‘pton‘Par-k iii1885, pedigree was important and the ‘harness horse industry was bringing a tremen- dons lot -of money here, because of our‘ production of good,-sound carriage horses which were ex- ported to the Eastern United staites. ’- ' ‘ _

Our soil has always been a helpful factor in 'the growth of good trotters and pacers, and our colts are also of good quality, and wehave the best of hay and the purest water. So all the ele- ments of nutrition are here.

What makes the buyers won- der is that so many breeders do not attend to the very essential matter of registration. We hope, through this column, to refer to it from time to time, ‘so that some reform take» place and we will be on a par with oth- er provinces with respect to reg- istration. '

Bulganin disagreed with the American charge that Russia is insisting on limiting the confer- ence agenda to Soviet-proposed subjects.

AREA OF AGREEMENT

Russia is willing, he said, to examine subjects proposed by the United States as long as there is some chance of agreement.

As for German reunification, Bulgani said this must be left to the wo German governments.

He said Russia also “regards as unacceptable” the end of the principle of unanimity (veto power) in the UN Security Coun- cil. . - Regarding the East European countries, Bulganin said it would be “dangerous to the cause of peace” to interfere in t-heir-do-

' mest-ic or foreign policies.

A ‘large delegation from the Western part of the Island yes- terday waited upon the Minister of Himways iiequesting that the proposed pavement between A1- berton and Tignish take a course through the Greemnount area. rather than the Western Road.

Hon. Mr. MacK.ay had 8!1~ nounced‘ Thursday night at an 0’Lea.1-y meeting that tenders had been called for the 13 mile stretch of pavement to go by way of the Western Road. ALMOST 200 NAMES _

In their brief containing _al- most 200 names the delegation pointed out that the Greenmount route has 73 houses compared to 35 ion» the Western Road. The former has two schools and two churches whereas the latter has only one school.

It was also shown that all market lobsters in May and

June travel the Greenmount route to Alberton and Borden. All farms in the area are high- ly productive with resultant heavy traffic in the fall and spring. -There are two potato warehouses on the Rayner Road, about one mile from Greenmount and most all farm produce comes to Tignish.

They stated that the busses usegthe Greenmount route in summer and fall due to the heavier ooncentr-ation of popula- tion. The route is one mile shorter than the proposed wat- ern road and presents a much morescenic A FORMER PROMISE

The tenth observation in the brief was that Hon. Thane A. Campbell while he was Premier in 1939 promised that the Green- mount route would be the part. of the road paved to Tignish.

A.ﬁter‘heari.n~g the brief and discussing the matter with the" delegation, Mr. Mac-Kay said the request would be given every consideration. He pointed out however that they were a little late in coming forward with their suggestions in. view of the fact that tenders had al- ready been called for the paving of the Western Road. He in- timated that this need not mean that the matter was finally ‘settled. ’

-Through it all this columnist maintained, at. the risk of being classed as an irresponsible writ- er, that our Hun crop in 1957 was approximately .50 per‘ cent albovethat of 1956. -I didn’t have too many backers but I had some. This was no wild guess or fire- side diagnosis. From October 19- 29 until the end of 1956.—_-a.pproxi- mately 28 years—I practically lived with the Huns. Their change of habits and habitat reads 1-i-ke an open book. ' GENERAL. INCREASE -\

From confidential information secured from farmers and person- al. observation in 1957, I arrived at the general estimated increase. The fact that groups of hunters went out last fall and travelled all daywithout seeing a" single Hun d-idn’t mean‘ a thing in my book. Some claimed they never saw a c'ovey all fall. In most cas- es the Huns are smarter than the hunters and I’m not excepting myself. They gave me the"horse laugh’ on a couple of occasions last October but I at least had the satisfaction of getting wise to their little trick.

we receive only 14 per cent. Through the years the Real Estate owner has had to assume more and more of the burden of Municipal financing in Canada, and the some situation has de- veloped within our Municipali- ties in this Province. ' ASSESSMENT LIMIT

With assessments of Real Pro- perty at close to their maximum level, and with the,current tax rates in our Provincial Munici- palities already up to a figure which tends to discourage peo- ple from building within those Municipalities and drives more and more of them to locate out- side our -boundaries each year, our Municipalities would, one might think, turn to other fields of taxation. Unfortunately, few if any of such sources are avail- able to us. You will recall that in the year 1942 it was deemed exped- ient by the Federal Government as a~War measure that certain forms of taxation on the three levels of Government in Canada be centralized at Ottawa, to al- low for control of such fields of taxation. . _ As a result, thesevarious fields of taxation then available to the Provincial and Municipal au- thorities were abandoned. A Dominion - Provincial Agree- ment followed, by which the Federal Government agreed to pay to the Provincial Govern- ment a sum in lieu of such abandoned taxes, and in turn the Provincial Government would reimburse the Municipali- ties for such sources of revenue then waived. ' Prime Municipal tax ‘source so abandoned at that

INCREASED FED\REVENUE

Unfortunately, too, while those abandoned fields of taxation have produced~"a,'steadi1y in. creasing source of revenue to our Federal Government, - yet we feel our per capita grant has not Increased in anything like the same proportion.

It is interesting to note, as well, that in this Province the Stealer Proportion of taxes paid 111120‘ the Federal Treasurey ema, nates from our Municipalities. APPROPRIAT TIME

In view of thecforegoing, it is 1‘€SPectfl111y_ submitted that now would be an appropriate time for our Provincial Government to give .consideration to the revision the per capita ‘grant paid by it to our _Municip_alities. We point out that in our sister Province of New. Brunswickthe per capita

“hey? 'I‘hat’s for, the Huns to know and for us ,to find out. A few‘ days ago a traveller met me on he street and remarked: “I thought there were no Huns in Prince County until yesterday I saw three coveys‘ from Portage west. One‘ was a-t the village of Portage. One covey held 11 birds and the others 8 or 9 each. Other commercial travellers covering the West end of the province have the same story to report from all sections of West.Prince. EVEN BRIGHTER

The H1111 ‘Picture is even bright- er in Queens and Kings counties, An electrical inspector who has his headquarters ‘at City Hall

saw Lilour coveys one afternoon while on an inspection tour in the Rustico, New Glasgow and Hunter River areas. One- held four only. The others were in the 12 to 18 bracket. '

A- covey has showed up at Victoria Park. Nobody appears to be able to accurately estimate its number, the tally runs from 12 to‘16. They are securing grit at -the outlet of the Kinsmen’s Bathing Pool built by them for the benefit ‘of children. Huns are great foragers but need a steady Supply ofgrit. It acts as teeth and they’ll become crop - bound and die without it, ,

I was asked for advice with re- gard to cutting thedaily baig on Huns from 8 to 5. I advised leav- ing it .stand at 8 on the grounds that the way the coveys were acting they could raise the limit

birds being bagged. I also raised the point it might be quite a chore getting it back to 8 if this change was ever requested. Those who were responsible for the bag limit reduction were mot- ivrated by the best of intentions" but it would be well for them to remember that in future any such recommendations be pre- sented only after a careful study of its pros and cons. In this spec- ific instance I feel that the change in the Regulations did not effect the season kill‘ on Huns one way or the other.

NOT ALARMED.

Some concern has been expres- sed over losses incurred due to pjresent crusted snow conditions particularly ‘in West Prince. I bllieve that snow conditions have worsened in Eastern Kings this week. This colmunist is not al- larmed at the moment over win- ter losses that may result.

grant to the Towns therehas been $7.50 for some years past, and in the case of-their Cities, the per capita grant runs to as high as $15.00. Based on our experience of the past few years, we feel that our fiscalneeds of those years should have merited for us an an- nual/ per capita grant of between $7.00 and $8.00.

However, it may be, Mr. Pre- mier, that your Government had planned to give our Municipali- ties an even greater portion of such Special Grant that we are suggesting, and if that be the case, be assured that we shall have no _objection thereto.

NEED RECOGNIZED ‘ This need has been recognized in Ottawa by the Prime Minister, when at last Fall's Dominion - Provincial Conference representa-

invited to sit in on their meeting, and one of the salient factors at such meeting was financial aid to Canadian Municipalities.

This same need was previously recognized by the Federal Gov-' ernment through its earlier decis- ion in recognizing the rights of the Municipalities to assess Fed- eral,Government property in the same way as any other property, and then to apply to it the pre- vailing Municipal Tax rate.

I’. M.’S STATEMENT

Last week, during the appear- ance here of the Prime Minister, he again reiterated the position of the Federal Government on this matter, andpointed out that “with. such ‘additional grant of $2,500,000.00 to this Province from the Federal Treasury for the next four years it should be possible for the Proyincial Government to give assistance to the various Municipalities in order to relieve them from the load that rests upon them today wherein Real Property is taxed to such an ex- tent that the holder of Real Property finds it more and more inexpedient to own- such pro- petty”. . ,

In view of this, we feel that we as Municipalities are entitled to a substantial increase in our per capita Grant. ,

That Special Grant to this Pro- vince constitutes approximately $25.00 per capita, and it is unani- mously submitted on behalf of our Municipalities that our share of same should be a minimum of $8.25 per capita based on the fact that we should have been receiv- ing a minimum of $7.50 per capita this last number of years, likewise based on our estimated increased fiscal needs of $3.75 for the, next four years, which, taking into account our present per capita Grant of $3.00, would mean $11.25 per capita; and which said minimum increase of $8.25 would mean that the share to our Provincial Municipalities of said Special Grant would con- stitute an amount of $253,629.75, or a mere approximate 10 per cent of same for the aforemen- tioned’ 31 per cent of the popula-

on. INCREASED SERVICES

It should be pointed out, as well, that Municipalities have to plan their expenditures by the measure of their revenue, and that while even now on that basis most of us are heavily in debt or unable to provide minimum services and with such debt charges ane om our most serious financial problems, nevertheless there are a great inumber of fields in which we would desire to become active and provide ser- vices to our citizens, all of which

allotted life span may find the go- ing too tough and give up and this also goes for members suf- fering from some organic ail- ment but this is all to the good. It means that undesirable breed- ing stock will be weeded out. The coveys were in top ‘shape when a tardy winter set in and will be able to stand some really tough going.
