IMMIGRATION ACT AMENDMENT

[Stage Direction]
Mr. JOSEPH ARCHAMBAULT (Cham-bly and Vercheres) presented the second report of the Special Committee to which were referred Bills Nos. 16 and 17 for consideration, recommending that the commit-
[ Mr. Graham. ]
tee be granted leave to sit while the House is in session, and moved concurrence in the report.
Mr. MEIGHEN:: It is not usual to ask for concurrence in a report the very day it is presented, especially a report on bills of this kind. None of us knows what the amendments are.


Mr. SPEAKER:: The motion only asks for leave for the committee to sit while the House is in session.


Arthur Meighen: I have no objection to the motion providing the report itself is only to the effect that the committee have leave to sit while the House is in session.


Mr. ARCHAMBAULT:: That is the only purpose of the motion.


[Stage Direction]
Motion agreed to.

[Stage Direction]
On the Orders of the Day:

Hon. W. S. FIELDING (Minister of Finance) :: I will call the attention of the Minister of Justice to the matter, and will give my hon. friend the information at a later date.



PUBLIC WORKS

[Stage Direction]
The House again in Committee of Supply, Mr. Gordon in the Chair.
Public Works-Chargeable to income-Harbours and Rivers-Prince Edward Island, $39,700.
Mr. GUTHRIE:: Will the minister tell us what amount was spent upon these services last year?


Hon. J. H. KING (Kootenay, Minister of Public Works) :: It was $35,925.


Hugh Guthrie: Was there any expenditure last year from the vote for "Harbours and rivers generally-repairs and improvements, $14,000"?	.


Mr. KING (Kootenay) :: Yes, the sum of $3,742.20 was expended.


Hugh Guthrie: How was the $14,000 made up, may I ask? Was it put in because that amount was in the estimates

Supply-Public Works
last year, or does it consist of items that have been submitted by various officers of the department?


John Warwick King: It is a general contingency vote carried from year to year and is used during the year for repairs that become necessary from time to time. We really cannot tell in advance what these repairs may be.


Hugh Guthrie: The point that was drawn to my attention was this. While the amount of $14,000 is put in for Prince Edward Island that sum is very seldom, if ever, spent. Last year the total expenditure was only some $3,000 odd. It has been intimated to me that the other items cover very well, very liberally, all the expenditure that is likely, or is possible, in Prince Edward Island under this vote for the next twelve months. Someone, I understand, has gone over the requirements of the Island with a good deal of care, and has put in a separate item for each possible work that may be necessary during the next twelve months. Therefore, I am told, the item of $14,000 will not be required-it never, or seldom, is required and the committee could save that money by striking the item out of the estimates this year.


John Warwick King: The item of $14,000 is for contingencies that may occur. It is true that last year the expenditure was only $3,742, but I do not think the present item should be disturbed; it is apparently the amount the staff think should be carried for a contingency of that kind.


Hugh Guthrie: But this amount of $14,000 is not recommended by any engineer of the department, or anyone who has examined the situation; I understand it is just put in as a sort of " cover all " charge; you may need it and you may not. My information is that some officer of the department has gone very thoroughly over the harbours and rivers of Prince Edward Island; that he has set out in detail what is required; and that he has been very generous in his estimate and has covered all the requirements in the various items totalling the sum of $39,700. Now the $14,000 is seldom, if ever, spent. In this case it is not likely to be spent at all: I would suggest to the minister under these circumstances it would have a better appearance if he agreed to the item of $14,000 coming off; or that $10,000 of the amount come off, leaving $4,000 for little incidentals that might possibly crop up.


William Stevens Fielding: There is a similar provision, I think, in the case of most of the other provinces. It is really an emer-gehcy item; it is not a thing that can be specified at the beginning of the year. And even if the money was not spent last year, circumstances might make it very desirable that it should be disbursed this year.


Hugh Guthrie: I understand the probable necessities of the other maritime provinces are much greater than those of the province of Prince Edward Island; in the case of New Brunswick there is a contingency vote of $40,000. I understand that quite often it is necessary to spend a good portion of the vote for a province, to repair damages caused by storms. But I am told that the officer who made up the estimate went over all these works and that he has taken possibilities as well as probabilities into his consideration. Now the expenditure under this item is about $2,000 to $4,000 annually. My point is that it is hardly worth while voting the $14,000 when there is no likelihood of spending the money. Something might, arise eventually demanding an expenditure, -'something did occur last year because $3,000 was spent. Under the circumstances I think it would be very reasonable to put in a sum of $4,000 for contingencies, and reduce the vote by $10,000.


Mr. HUGHES:: It is quite evident from the remarks of the hon. member for South Wellington (Mr. Guthrie) that he is not very well acquainted with maritime province conditions; he comes from a part of the country where the conditions would not enable him to have very much, knowledge in regard to matters of this kind. Owing to the fact that the province in question is an island it contains quite a number of harbours, and in those harbours are important public works. No man can foretell when a storm may come up and inflict very great damage on a number of these works. Therefore a prudent government, one having the interest of the country at heart, will most naturally and necessarily have an amount of this kind to provide for such contingencies. The necessity for the expenditure may not arise for years; but at any time storms may occur resulting in very great damage, and it would be very vital to have that damage repaired with the utmost promptitude. Really it is true economy to have the money available for that purpose; therefore this item has
Supply-Public Works

appeared in the estimates for many years. It is not a new vote, and if the money is not wanted it will not be expended, and no harm will be done. I think that if my hon. friend understood the conditions as they actually exist in Prince Edward Island, he would not object to this vote.


Hugh Guthrie: The storm which my
hon. friend fears might happen and do considerable damage, might occur anywhere; but we could always make provision for cases of that kind. Suppose you had an earthquake, or a heavy storm, and damage to the amount of $50,000 or $100,000 was done; that could immediately be taken care of.


John Warwick King: In what way?


Hugh Guthrie: By Governor General's warrant. It has been done in the past, time and again. This system of warrants is designed to take care of unforeseen sudden expenditure, and there is no object in continuing the vote of $14,000. The minister might just as well put it in at $100,000 or $150,000. Experience has shown that $2,000 or $3,000 is necessary. Granting that you may be called upon to make a heavy unforeseen expenditure when the House is not in session, it is always open to the minister to go to the Governor General and get a warrant, and come down at the next session of parliament, as has been done time and again, and ask for the money.


John Warwick King: I do not think there should be any misunderstanding regarding this vote. It is in the usual form and was carried last year and the year previous. It is a vote for contingencies which may arise, which cannot toe foretold. A similar vote was passed the other day in regard to the province of Nova Scotia, $60,000 for contingencies. In regard to this particular vote, I am told that $2,200 has already been required as expenditures which should be made under that vote this year. Beyond that, we have no knowledge as to what will be required. It is a usual vote, not only in this department but almost in every department, for unforeseen expenditures.


Mr. SINCLAIR (Queen's, P.E.I.) :: 
Hugh Guthrie: I do not know whether the principle is a good or a bad one. I find the estimates show contingent votes for harbours and rivers, which run into a very large sum of money. For Nova Scotia we voted $60,000 for contingencies, not knowing how the money is going to be spent. For Prince Edward Island we are asked to vote $14,000; New Brunswick, $40,000; Quebec, $75,000; Ontario, $65,000; Manitoba, $15,000; Saskatchewan and Alberta, $20,000 between them; and British Columbia, $95,000-all these votes for contingencies. That is a very substantial amount of money, and there are no particulars given-none can be given, the circumstances have not arisen for the expenditure of even a fraction of it. Why can we not remove this large amount of money from the estimates, and, if money is necessary during the twelvemonth, get it as we did in other cases, by Governor General's warrant?


William Stevens Fielding: Is it not unfortunate that when my hon. friend (Mr. Guthrie) was in a (better position to influence this item, he did not apply these principles? He has selected a regrettable moment to do it. He should have done it when he had the power.


Hugh Guthrie: I do not know that it is regrettable. I bring it up at the present time, and if I did not notice it or my attention was not called to it last year, it has certainly been called to it this year.


William Stevens Fielding: Evidently.


Hugh Guthrie: Not by a man far from Nova Scotia, but by a gentleman from Nova Scotia, who pointed out the item. If the principle is wrong it is a good time

Supply-Public Works
to correct it; if it is right, let us confirm it.


Mr. CARROLL:: Who was my hon.
friend's informant?


Hugh Guthrie: It is none of my hon.
friend's business.


The CHAIRMAN:: Order.


Hugh Guthrie: The fact that I did not
cal! attention to it last year, or the year before, is no reason for saying, if it is wrong, that we should not put it right now. Here is an item of $375,000 for repairs generally, and we do not know where the money is going, or whether it is going to be spent or not. I ask the House to consider the question of wiping out all the items for contingencies, and if the money is required, get it by Governor General's warrant.


William F. Carroll: The hon. member from
South Wellington apparently has a stricken conscience and I challenge him to name a man from Nova Scoitia of outstanding ability-


Mr. DUFF:: Or in any other province.


William F. Carroll: Or in any other province-who objects to any item in the Public Works' estimates which have been presented to this parliament. When I ask him to suggest the name of any person in that province who objects to the estimates that have been brought before this House, he says it is none of my business. It is my business, and it is the business of this committee, and I challenge my hon. friend from South Wellington to name a man from the province of Nova Scotia who objects to the estimates that have been brought down by the Minister of Public Works.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Harbours and rivers-New Brunswick, $66,700.
Mr. LEGER:: I see an item here "Portage river-repairs to breakwater $1,200". In what county is Portage river?


John Warwick King: In Kent county.


Mr. BAXTER:: I understand there are
two Portage rivers in adjacent parishes. Perhaps they are in adjacent counties. I would like to know the parish. I have had an inquiry about it.


Auguste Théophile Léger: Parish of Carleton, Kent
County.


John Warwick King: I have not the
parish. Portage river is a small stream
entering the Northumberland straits about five miles from Point Sapin and six miles north of Kouchibouguac, population 150.


Mr. HANSON:: Has any policy been arrived at with respect to the question of provincial wharves on tidal waters in New Brunswick? If I understand the matter aright, the scheme adopted by my hon. friend's friends of the provincial government of New Brunswick is to unload upon the Dominion treasury the maintenance and upkeep of all the public wharves that have been built in that province since the beginning of time, and thus relieve themselves of a burden which they voluntarily took upon themselves in days gone by. If the minister will question the officials of his department, he will find that a very prodigal policy has been pursued in the past by both governments with respect to building public wharves in New Brunswick in tidal waters, which wharves, for the most part, have been built purely for political purposes. This was especially true on the river St. John during the regime of the Laurier government down to 1911 when a former member of this House represented that constituency as a supporter of that government. If you will travel up and down the river St. John in the counties of Queen's and Sunbury, you will find two or three wharves in the same locality, one built by the Dominion, one by the province and another by one or the other as a high water wharf or a low water wharf, as the case may be. At the present time, all are in a state of disrepair, and the provincial government have refused to carry out the policy which was instituted twenty-five or thirty years ago with respect to building these wharves, and to keep their wharves in repair. Similarly, during the war, owing to the exigencies of the finances of the country, the Dominion authorities allowed many of their wharves to fall into disrepair-one could very well understand that. But lately, an effort has been made on the part of the provincial authorities by the Foster government to unload on the Dominion all the upkeep and maintenance of these provincial wharves in tidal waters. Just the other day, Hon. Mr. Foster was a visitor to Ottawa. I do not know that his visit to the capital synchronized with the vacancy which has recently occurred in the Senate or not, but he paid a visit to Ottawa, and on his return to New Brunswick he announced that the Dominion authorities had agreed to take over from the province all the provincial wharves in tidal waters. I should like to have from the minister a
Supply-Public Works

statement as to what policy has been decided upon in that regard. I would point out to him also the duplication of services by the two governments in the past, and, having regard to that, would ask what is proposed to be done in the future. While I am on my feet I should like to point out to the minister that, in this appropriation of $66,700, there is not one dollar for the repair of a single Dominion wharf in the water of the St. John river or its tributaries, although many important wharves are to be found in that locality.


Mr. COPP:: Will the hon. member kindly state how many Dominion wharves are on that river?


Richard Burpee Hanson: If I had time, I could recall them; but at the very least, there must be a dozen. In my constituency of Sunbury, there is one at Oromocto, one at Mangerville, one at Burton and one at Sheffield, a very important wharf.


Mr. MORRISSY:: Is there on the St.
John river one wharf owned by the Dominion government?


Richard Burpee Hanson: Yes.


John Veriker Morrissy: There is not one. I was eight years in charge of the wharves there, and there is none.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I will not take any back seat to the hon. gentleman. I have already pointed out four in the county of Sunbury, and if I had time to think of them, I could point out half a dozen more. There is a public wharf at Gagetown, a very important point on the river St. John, where during the season of navigation, a very large quantity of produce and lumber is shipped each year. That is a Dominion wharf. I know that because I was instrumental in having some minor repairs done to that wharf last year by the Dominion authorities.
In these estimates there is not a dollar for a single wharf on the St. John river, although there are at least a dozen in that locality. There is not a single dollar for a wharf in the bay of Fundy waters, except at three points in the county of Charlotte. The entire vote is being appropriated for the north shore counties, and that is not a fair distribution. With respect to the appropriation of $40,000 generally for harbours and rivers in New Brunswick, I do not object to the principle of that blanket appropriation, except to make this observation-that, in times gone by, a very much larger appropriation was [Mr. Hanson.J
inserted in the estimates, and it was used as occasion required, not altogether on business principles. I do not, however, object to the amount of $40,000 in the estimate this year, if the minister will say that attention will be given to those Dominion wharves where, I know, attention is required.


Arthur Bliss Copp: Does my hon. friend object to wharves in tidal waters of New Brunswick being taken over by the Dominion government the same as has been done in the case of wharves in other provinces?


Richard Burpee Hanson: If that is a general
policy that has been adopted by this Government-


Arthur Bliss Copp: My hon. friend misunderstands me. The wharves in the other provinces have not been taken over by this Government; they have been maintained by the Dominion government for many years, and the province of New Brunswick is the only province in the whole Dominion that has been compelled to keep up wharves in tidal waters. Does my hon. friend object to the province of New Brunswick being treated in the same manner as the other provinces?


Richard Burpee Hanson: I do not understand
that to be the case. If my hon. friend will, on his authority as a minister of the Crown, state that that is the case, then I would submit that New Brunswick should be placed in no different position from that of any other province. But if that be not the case, I will object to hon. gentlemen opposite loading on to the Dominion the burden which the province of New Brunswick voluntarily assumed, and which it should keep up because it voluntarily assumed the burden.


John Warwick King: Representations have been made during the last two or three years to the Dominion government by the provincial government of New Brunswick, asking that this government take over and control the wharf service in New Brunswick. Heretofore there has been a dual service, which apparently came into vogue many years ago. The matter was under consideration by the late government and, I believe, it had reached a certain stage where an order would probably have been presented with that idea in view. The policy was not adopted; but for the information of the committee, I may say that recently I have had representations from the government

Supply-Public Works
of New Biunswick following up the representations which they made in 1919 and 1920; the matter is receiving consideration, but the final decision has not been reached.


Mr. CHAPLIN:: How much of last
year's estimate of $118,000 was spent, and how much of last year's estimate of $40,000 was spent?


John Warwick King: Of the $40,000, $11,600 odd was spent.


James Dew Chaplin: Plow much was spent
of the total?


John Warwick King: Amount spent,


Richard Burpee Hanson: Who is the engineer in charge of the Public Works Department in New Brunswick?


John Warwick King: Mr. Stead.


Richard Burpee Hanson: Has the agency at Chatham been closed?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Richard Burpee Hanson: And the whole coast line, including the river St. John, is now under his jurisdiction?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I do not see anything in the estimates this year for any construction on the island of Grand Manan. This is_ the largest island in the bay of Fundy, with the largest population, and there are works there that undoubtedly require attention.


John Warwick King: I understand
that there was no report from the engineer, when the estimates were prepared, as to the necessity for any construction there.


Richard Burpee Hanson: What are the instructions given to the engineer? Does he voluntarily make a report, or is he requested to go over the situation?


John Warwick King: He voluntarily reports from time to time upon the requirements of his district.


Mr. GRIMMER:: There is a vote of $1,500 for Leonardville and $1,700 for Welchpool, both for "repairs to wharf." Are these wharves in Charlotte county?


John Warwick King: They are both in Charlotte county.


Robert Watson Grimmer: Have any representations been made to the department, on behalf of the people of Grand Manan and the neighbouring islands, urging the necessity for the construction of breakwaters in all or any of these islands?


John Warwick King: I shall be glad to look into the question and give my hon. friend the information. I have not the facts at the moment.


Robert Watson Grimmer: I should be very much surprised to learn that no representations of this kind have been made to the department, for I believe that it was generally understood, prior to the last election, that in the event of the present administration being returned to power construction would be proceeded with at once on breakwaters at some or all of these islands.


Richard Burpee Hanson: The promise was made.


Robert Watson Grimmer: Well, at any rate, the
people generally understood that. Now, the people have carried out their part of the' programme, and it rests with the Government to fulfil any promises that may have been made on their behalf. These islands form a part of the constituency which I have the honour to represent, and they are isolated from the mainland. The island of Campobello and Deer island are situated five miles from the nearest point on the mainland out in Passamaquoddy bay and the island of Grand Manan is twenty miles away from the mainland out in Atlantic ocean. The people of these islands depend entirely on fishing for a living. Any hon. member who knows anything at all about this industry is aware of the hardships and the disadvantages generally which those who are engaged in it have to endure. The village of Castalia, on the island of Grand Manan, was at one time a prosperous fishing community, but owing to the disadvantages under which the people laboured the young men went over to the United States where they could engage in their occupation under more favourable conditions. The heavy seas and storms from the Atlantic, beating upon the island, have destroyed the waterfront. The people, in the event of a storm, have to moor their boats two miles from home, and this entails a serious hardship upon them. Nature has provided a splendid foundation for a breakwater and all that is required is for the Government to carry it to completion. The people believe that the young men will come back if they are given an opportunity to engage in the industry under proper conditions. The breakwater could

Supply-Public Works

be completed at little expense and it would carry out any promises that may have been made to the people. At Woodwards Cove some years ago the government undertook the construction of a breakwater and completed one section, and the people are desirous of having the work carried to completion. On Deer island, at the cove above Wilson's Beach, which is the central part of the island, the fishermen work under more favourable circumstances. They do not require a great breakwater, as they have a magnificent cove in which to moor their boats. But the fishermen to-day have to carry their fish along the beach to the houses, the water being too shallow for them to moor their boats near shore. They are anxious to have the department of Public Works do at least a week's dredging so that they may have ample mooring accommodation. The work would cost comparatively little and would meet the requirements of those who engage in fishing in that part of the country. The upper portion of Deer island, as far back as the oldest inhabitants can recollect, has never received its due share of public works. The people desire to have a wharf or a breakwater there. Either would be satisfactory to them, and it is imperative that the construction be begun at as early a date as possible in order to enable the fishermen to carry on their industry. Only a small amount would be necessary to provide permanent facilities, and the people have been wanting the work done for a considerable time now. I see that for Nova Scotia the estimates provide $182,680 while for New Brunswick the amount is only $66,700, just about one-third. Surely the Government can afford to implement the promise they made the people in that portion of Charlotte county. I should be gratified if the minister would give me definite assurance that these new public works, which would not cost a great deal and which are absolutely necessary if these people are to carry on their business, will be provided.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I would call the attention of the minister and of the committee to the character of the campaign carried on by the Liberal candidate in Charlotte county, New Brunswick, during the last election.


Some hon. MEMBERS:: Carried.


Richard Burpee Hanson: The item is not carried. As hon. gentlemen are aware who know the geography of that locality, a very large
portion of the population of the county depends on the fishing industry for a livelihood. I am intimately acquainted with the place, as it happens to be my native county, and I have lived there a good many years. During the last general election, Mr. W. F. Todd, the defeated Liberal candidate in Charlotte county, carried on a campaign throughout the island parishes, and promised a wharf or breakwater at practically every fishing hamlet in the county.


Mr. MICHAUD:: Did the hon. gentleman (Mr. Hanson) make any promises of a similar kind in his county?


Richard Burpee Hanson: No, I did not make any.


Pius Michaud: What about the Transcontinental railway? The hon. member for York-Sunbury wanted the divisional point which is in my town transferred to his own town, and he campaigned for that change.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I would point out to the minister and the House that what I have referred to was a straight bid for votes on a bribery principle. We have heard of such cases in days gone by in connection with our election campaigns. I would point out further that no attempt whatever has been made to implement what the Liberal candidate so lavishly promised on that occasion. Some of those promises, I haVe no doubt, were made in good faith; others undoubtedly were made with the intent and purpose of influencing the electors. That practice has a degenerating influence on our public life, and-[DOT]


Some Hon. MEMBERS:: Oh, oh.


Richard Burpee Hanson: Some of my hon. friends opposite laugh, I suppose because it has been such a common practice by them in the past, especially in New Brunswick. I would point out to the minister that some of these promises were made by Mr. W. F. Todd, the Liberal candidate in my constituency, and have not been fulfilled, I think the minister would be doing a duty to the people down there if he would endeavour to have those promises redeemed.


Arthur Bliss Copp: Were the wharves and breakwaters which my hon. friend says were promised, necessary to the county of Charlotte, which he speaks of as being his native county?


Richard Burpee Hanson: Some few were; most of them were not.

Supply-Public Works


Arthur Bliss Copp: Unfortunately Mr. Todd is not here to defend himself against this very serious charge. But my hon. friend was not content with making this charge against Mr. Todd alone; he says that all the members of this House from the province of New Brunswick took the same course during their respective campaigns.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I did not say that. I said that that course had been pursued in the past by hon. gentlemen from New Brunswick.


Arthur Bliss Copp: Members of this House at present?


Richard Burpee Hanson: No.


Arthur Bliss Copp: While making allowance for the fact that my hon. friend is a young member of this House, yet I feel it is neither fair nor courageous on his part- and I think the House will agree with me- to make these charges against his opponents without bringing evidence to substantiate them. My friend Mr. Todd was a member of this House for many years, and several hon. members will recall the splendid reputation which he enjoyed. Before my hon. friend charges his opponents with making, during the course of his campaign, promises verging on bribery, he should at least have the courtesy and courage to bring some evidence before this committee upon which he bases his charges. On the contrary he has not offered the slightest evidence in support of what he alleges.


Richard Burpee Hanson: Mr. Chairman, I have great pleasure in bringing to your notice a specific instance. Just previous to the general election Mr. Todd arrived at Grand Manan, accompanied by a number of henchmen, including Mr. B. M. Hill, chief engineer of highways for New BrunsWifek. They not only told the people of Grand Manan that they would build them a motor speedway, but Mr. Hill, I am informed, actually went around among the electors-and, be it known, Mr. Hill was defeated in the provincial arena-and engaged men to work upon that road, ostensibly to make a survey, but practically to go to work on the road. That was all very well until election day; we have never heard about the matter since.


Arthur Bliss Copp: My hon. friend, just as I expected, has shifted his ground entirely. He transfers his charge from Mr. Todd to Mr. Hill, the superintendent of local highways in New Brunswick. My hon. friend knows, as does everyone else in New Bruns-
126i
wick, that Mr. Hill is an employee of the local government there. No doubt he went down to the county of Charlotte for the same purpose that he has visited all the other counties in the province, to build highways; and he has helped to build many magnificent highways in New Brunswick. But the building of provincial highways has nothing whatever to do with the construction of breakwaters and wharves in the county of Charlotte.


Richard Burpee Hanson: The money out of which Mr. Hill proposed to build the highways was to come from the federal grant, which certainly has a very important hearing on Dominion politics.


Arthur Bliss Copp: That is all expended by the local government under the superintendence of Mr. Hill.

The House resumed in Committee of Supply, Mr. Gordon in the Chair.
Mr. HAN.SON: The Secretary of State (Mr. Copp) challenged me to give a list of the places where those supporting him had made definite promises to carry out public works in the county of Charlotte prior to the last election. I have in my hand a list of those places.
Arthur Bliss Copp: I did not say anything about those who were supporting me.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I will let you have a list anyway. The first place as to which Mr. Todd, and those supporting him, made such a promise, and the most important public work to which he had relation, was the completion of the 'breakwater at Castalia, Parish of Grand Manan. Mr. Todd was there and personally looked over the ground and told the people he would have the breakwater carried to completion. The second place was at Welshpool-


Arthur Bliss Copp: Did my hon. friend say Castalia?


Richard Burpee Hanson: Yes Castalia, Parish of Grand Manan. At Welshpool Mr. Todd personally promised that dredging would be done forthwith. The third place where a promise of a public work was made, was at the upper end of Deer island, near Lord's cove Where he personally-


Mr. GOOD:: Has my hon. friend any objection to the members in this part of the Chamber hearing his statement? We cannot hear him at all in this quarter.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I shall be delighted to oblige my hon. friend. As I say the third promise related to a wharf or breakwater at the upper end of Deer island, just beyond Lord's cove. Mr. Todd promised a wharf or a breakwater; I am not sure that he did not promise them both. The fourth place was at Seeley basin, in the parish of Pennfield, where a wharf site was actually located before the 6th December. I dare say, if I had the time, I could give my hon. friend a dozen other places.


Arthur Bliss Copp: Is my hon. friend speaking from hearsay, or was he present and heard the statements referred to?


Richard Burpee Hanson: The hon. member knows I was not there.


Arthur Bliss Copp: My hon. friend is repeating what somebody told him.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I am speaking from information which I know to be correct.


Arthur Bliss Copp: I would like the hon. gentleman to give a little further information.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I do not know, Sir, that you have any right to cross-examine me.


Arthur Bliss Copp: I am not cross-examining my hon. friend. Apparently he is a hostile witness and a cross-examination of that type of witness is sometimes dangerous. However, I would like my hon. friend to be kind enough-he having volunteered very valuable information to the committee in regard to the attitude of Mr. Todd during the last election campaign regarding the construction of wharves and breakwaters or both, in his county-to state whether the public works suggested by Mr. Todd as being desirable are necessary for the inhabitants of the particular localities mentioned.


Richard Burpee Hanson: They are not in the estimates and therefore in the opinion of the Government they cannot be necessary. If my hon. friend wants an answer I would refer him to the officers of the Public Works Department who are the technical advisers of the Government. It is not my duty, it is not even my privilege, to advise my hon. friend.


Arthur Bliss Copp: My hon. friend apparently misunderstood my question.

Supply-Public Works


Richard Burpee Hanson: I do not think so.


Arthur Bliss Copp: My hon. friend is a native of Charlotte county and he has a very close acquaintance with its requirements, as well as with the requirements of the county of York which he represents. I would like, therefore, if he would be good enough to tell the committee whether, in his opinion, the construction of the public works in question is necessary for the benefit of the inhabitants of the respective localities referred to? If he says it is, I am sure the Minister of Public Works will give the matter his very careful consideration?


Richard Burpee Hanson: I will put this proposition to the minister: If I answer his question will he undertake to carry out the recommendation that I make? Then I will answer his question.


Arthur Bliss Copp: I am very deeply interested in the information my hon. friend has given to the committee. It is the first I have heard with respect to these localities requiring accommodation of the kind referred to. I would be very glad indeed if my hon. friend would inform us whether these works are absolutely necessary. If they are, I will be very glad, seeing that I represent the province of New Brunswick, to give the matter my very best consideration, and see if something can be done to meet the requirements in question.


Robert Watson Grimmer: As the representative of the county of Charlotte I will answer the question and say that, I think these works are absolutely necessary. They should be built in the interest of the people of the county, and any promises that were made at the last election should be carried out. If Mr. Todd made the promises referred to I think he was perfectly right in doing so; the works are really needed by the people, the fishermen and others, who carry on their occupations in those localities. I will back the minister up if he will undertake these works and carry them to completion. However, as no amounts have been provided in the estimates I can see no chance of this being done.


William Duff: There is the sum of $40,000 in the estimates.


Richard Burpee Hanson: That will not go far towards building a breakwater in Castalia.


William Stevens Fielding: I am a little interested whenever I hear of any one breaking a contract and not keeping faith. Now if
anybody, either Liberal or Conservative, promised to build wharves or piers, or anything of the kind, as a means of getting votes, that is wrong, that is bribery-call it what you like-and therefore I cannot excuse it. But I am going to ask my hon. friend from York-Sunbury (Mr. Hanson) as to the nature of these promises. Did I understand correctly, that Mr. Todd promised that these things would be done if Mr. Grimmer was elected?


Richard Burpee Hanson: The questibn of the hon.
minister answers itself.


William Stevens Fielding: He does not allege that any such promise was made; therefore there was no breach of contract.


James Dew Chaplin: I call attention again to the very large item of $40,000 in these estimates. The total estimate is $66,000. There is an amount of $40,000 unspecified. I do not think it is good business to put such a large amount for unspecified work in the estimates. I noted what the minister had to say in regard to a similar item for Prince Edward Island. I wish to point out that the total estimates in respect to Prince Edward Island were $40,000 and the unspecified amount was $14,000. In the other case, the total amount was $66,000 and unspecified $40,000, a disproportionate amount.


Hugh Guthrie: I do not want to delay the estimate, but following up what the hon. member for Lincoln (Mr. Chaplin) has stated, I think the minister should consider the objection. See the opportunity it gives the minister, if the vote goes through as it stands. Last year $11,000 was spent and $29,000 not spent. If similar conditions exist this year the minister will have under that general vote $29,000. For his own protection he should change this systeim. Every government heeler in New Brunswick will 'be after him to spend this money. At least, I venture the opinion that some will be after him. They will be chasing the minister, and all sorts of reports will come to him that $2,000 should be spent here, $3,000 another place, and $5,000 another place. Parliament has nothing to say in regard to the expenditure, we are leaving it in the hands of the minister to say when and where he will spend the money. He will undoubtedly he importuned and for his own protection it would be far better if the amount were reduced. There is no emergency that cannot be taken care of by Governor General's warrant, and the minister should welcome my
Supply-Public Works

suggestion. I know that this system has obtained in 'the past, why not correct it for the future? I ask the minister if he will not announce a reduction Of $10,000 in the total vote of $66,000. We have an item, "Contingencies, improvements and repairs generally, $40,000." We are asked to give the money without knowing whether it is going to be spent, or where. It is an improper principle.


John Warwick King: I will cite a few items of expenditure last year under this vote, and my hon. friend will see the fallacy of his argument when he says that a Governor General's warrant be passed on every occasion of this kind. We find that at Chance Harbour $100 was spent; at Cognac, $18; Leonard'ville Wharf, $25.20; Mill Point, $543.77. Many items, large and small, come up for consideration and conditions Occur from time to time where the engineers or the officials are required to report on certain matters and make expenditures. I think the hon. member will see how cumbersome it would be if we had to obtain Governor General's warrants on every occasion of thi's kind. A contingent vote to take care of unforeseen conditions is not unusual in the Public Works Department or in any other department. The vote last year was the same amount as this year; I have not the information as to the preceding year, but I imagine the vote was somewhat similar. The expenditures vary from year to year, as one can well understand, and I see no reason Why the vote should be reduced. It will not be expended if it is not required.


William Charles Good: What was the total expenditure in these items last year, and what need is there for having a much larger expenditure this year?


John Warwick King: The total expenditure last year was $11,666, out of a vote for contingencies of $40,000. I would not and could not advise the committee that the expenditure would be the same as last year. No one can foretell that. I see no reason to change the vote.


Hugh Guthrie: I see the point in what the minister says, that there is a lot of small payments which have to be made, but I think $10,000 or $15,000 would be sufficient for all purposes. I wish to test the matter and take the view of the committee, and for that purpose I am going to move to reduce the item. I do not desire to reduce it in respect of New Brunswick only, and I want to avoid making a motion as
[Mr. Guthrie.!
each item comes up, and my amendment will be simply to take the feeling of the committee upon this question. I move that the item of $40,000 for repairs and improvements generally be reduced to $20,000. That will allow the minister a very substantial amount and a large margin, to carry on incidental repairs.


William Stevens Fielding: The amendment of my hon. friend, I think, shows a failure to appreciate the very spirit and purpose of the resolution. It is an emergency vote for something that cannot be anticipated. The most we can say is that it may not be needed. The past experience has shown that when it was not needed it was not spent, but, surely, it is well to have a margin of safety in that case, and the figures the minister brings down are precisely the same as last year's. I think it would be a mistake to depart from the rule laid down in the past; I do not think the hon. member has shown any good reason for reducing the vote.
Amendment (Mr. Guthrie) negatived: Yeas 24; Nays 79.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Harbours and rivers-Quebec, $396,980.
George Newcombe Gordon: Is it the pleasure of the committee that this appropriation be taken up in detail item by item?


Some hon. MEMBERS:: No.


Mr. STEVENS:: Surely my hon. friends are not going to ask the committee to pass a batch of details consisting of probably forty different items, without a word from the minister. I am surprised that the minister himself did not offer to give to the committee an explanation of some of these items. How much of the total appropriation of $423,160 of last year was spent? How much of the appropriation of $75,000 of last year for harbours and rivers generally was spent?


John Warwick King: The total expenditure from last year's appropriation was $254,557.56. Of the appropriation of $75,000 for harbours and rivers generally last year, the expenditure was $62,881. That in itself shows that these items vary from year to year. In Quebec last year we practically expended the sum set aside for contingencies.


Henry Herbert Stevens: The minister and the Government will note that, out of an appropriation of about $423,000, only

Supply-Public Works
$254,000, or very little over one-half, was spent. The minister is asking this year, on the policy and plea of retrenchment and economy, an increase of about $142,000 over the expenditure of last year. We ought to have an explanation of this very large increase.


John Warwick King: I do not think my hon. friend would suggest that the estimates and expenditures made last year should govern and rule the committee this year. The estimates are prepared in the department on the knowledge and advice of the officials of the department. We have not found it necessary to ask for as large a sum as was asked for last year. This year we are asking for $396,980 against $423,100 last year. My hon. friend says that, as the expenditure last year was only $254,000, we should further reduce the amount this year. I do not think he is competent-and I know, as minister, with the time at my disposal, I am not competent-to advise the committee that that should follow. I am taking the advice of the officials of my department, and this would seem to be a reasonable amount for expenditures in the province of Quebec. It is well known to hon. members that, during the war period, undoubtedly, and wisely so, public works were not maintained as they should be in normal times, and the Department of Public Works at this time finds it necessary to make more extensive repairs than probably would have been necessary if the ordinary repairs had been carried on from year to year.


Henry Herbert Stevens: The minister is enunciating a policy of extensive and increased expenditure on public works. He states that during the war there was retrenchment, and that now is the time for expansion. We were led to believe, by the oft-repeated and widely advertised declarations of the Government that this was to be a period of retrenchment.


John Warwick King: I think my hon. friend has misunderstood me. I merely stated that, owing to the fact that public works were allowed to fall into disrepair during the war period, it is found necessary now to make larger expenditures on these works in order that we may retain what we have. To do otherwise, would be false economy.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Surely we could run over these items quickly, and the minister could give us a brief explanation of the
reasons for them. The first item, Anse aux Gascons wharf, is a revote of $29,000, only $20,000 of the appropriation of last year of $49,000 having been expended. We should have an explanation of that. And some of the other items are very large.


John Warwick King: The $29,000 asked for Anse aux Gascons wharf covers a contract entered into last year. The contract price was $49,000, and the expenditure in 1921-22 was $20,000, so that a revote this year of $29,000 is required to carry out the contract entered into in 192122.


Hugh Guthrie: Is the appropriation for repairs and reconstruction of the wharf at Gaspe in the same situation? The appropriation last year was $34,000, and we are asked for a revote of $20,000 this year. Was that under contract?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Hugh Guthrie: I think there was a contract for the wharf extension and repairs at Grosse Isle quarantine station, but I am not sure. How far has that work been proceeded with?


John Warwick King: The vote asked is for repairs to the flooring, replacing of mooring posts in the eastern wharf and extension of eastern wharf. Of the appropriation of $50,000 last year, $15,000 was expended, and the amount lapsed is $9,000. This revote of $26,000 is to complete the work.


Hugh Guthrie: Was $15,000 the total expenditure last year on this work?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Hugh Guthrie: Last year's appropriation was $50,000?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Hugh Guthrie: Then the total cost of this work when completed is going to be only $41,000 instead of $50,000?


John Warwick King: Yes.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Harbours and rivers-Ontario, $398,800.
Mr. MANION:: How much was spent
of last year's estimate amounting to $644,700?


John Warwick King: Altogether,


Robert James Manion: What percentage was

Supply-Public Works


John Warwick King: The amount
spent was $44,263.


Mr. BLACK (Huron) :: Does the minister intend to put anything in the supplementary estimates for Goderich harbour? He will remember that a deputation waited upon him a few weeks ago. This is the only harbour between Port McNicoll and Sarnia, and last year 22,000,000 bushels of grain passed through it. The harbour should be dredged to enable big boats to turn round. Sometimes vessels have remained in the harbour for as long as ten days getting unloaded.


John Warwick King: The representations made by my hon. friend and by the deputation are receiving consideration, but I am not in a position to advise as to what will be put in the estimates.


Hugh Guthrie: The question of the Goderich harbour has been before the House many times during the last ten years. The position became rather acute four or five years ago. It was felt that during the war the expenditure would hardly be justified. My recollection is that what is required in Goderich harbour will take a considerable amount of money. I believe that the expenditure is urgently needed. My hon. friend from South Huron (Mr. Black) knows the situation better than I do, but I have heard the matter discussed by various delegations, and I know something about the railroad that runs through the city of Guelph where I live and which is dependent for a large part of its trade on the grain that comes through the Goderich harbour. This harbour, I think, is the only one for large boats on the shores of Lake Huron, from Port McNicoll all the way down. It requires a considerable course of dredging. The chief expenditure is needed for something in the nature of a sea wall to make the harbour safe in stormy weather. At present it is the only port where a ship can put in in stress of weather on the whole of that side of lake Huron, and it is of considerable consequence to mariners in general to have the harbour properly built up and developed, apart altogether from the question of shipping. Goderich is reached now both by the Grand Trunk and by the Canadian Pacific (railways. There are large elevator systems in the locality and a tremendous amount of grain passes through the port. I hope, therefore, that the Government will take the matter up, and when the supplementary estimates come down I shall certainly join with my

hon. friend from South Huron in endeavouring to convince the Government that a substantial expenditure should be made there.


Auguste Théophile Léger: Why do you not make a
motion to that effect?


William Duff: I see that we are discussing votes for Ontario, and it is rather strange that the member for South Wellington (Mr. Guthrie) does not move an amendment to reduce the item for the expenditure of $65,000 on harbours and rivers.


Hugh Guthrie: I have explained why.


William Duff: Since he is appearing before the House as the great economist he might very well do that. He is not only backing up the member for South Huron in urging the necessity for expending this large amount of $398,000 odd in Ontario, but he wants 'the (Government to spend more. . Now, if that vote were asked for New Brunswick or British Columbia, or some other province, my hon. friend would be on his feet immediately, telling the Government that? they were spending too much money. It strikes me that a great deal depends on whose ox is gored, and the hon. member for South Wellington seems to be the most inconsistent gentleman in this House.


Hugh Guthrie: It will not take long
to reply to my hon. friend. I am not making any motion in respect of this $65,000 for harbours and rivers generally, in Ontario, for the reason that I have given to the committee. I merely wished to test the opinion of the committee once for all, and apply it to all the items in the estimates. That would save time, and it is final and definite enough for me. I do not object to any expenditure on rivers and harbours in any part of Canada where the expenditure is warranted; I have not once objected to such expenditures in these items. I have however, objected to money being voted for the Government to spend without Parliament knowing how it is to be expended, and that objection was well founded, notwithstanding the vote of the committee.


William Duff: It is all very well for the hon. member to get up, now that he is in opposition, and be so pious politically:	He
was not quite so pious a few days before the election, however. He got contracts let in the city of Guelph for some $300,000 for militia supplies that were not needed.


Hugh Guthrie: For how much?

Supply-Public Works


William Duff: Nor was he so pious in other things. He should he the last gentleman to rise in hiis place in this House and declare that there should not be one dollar expended without minute details as to how it will be disposed of. The whole trouble with the hon. gentleman is that he is not acquainted with the facts. With regard to the votes in the different provinces for harbours and rivers generally, I do not suppose it would be parliamentary for me to say that my hon. friend's attitude is due to ignorance on his part.


George Newcombe Gordon: Order.


William Duff: I do say, however, that it is due to lack of knowledge. And that is the whole trouble with him. Now, I know very little about the province of Ontario, but I can conceive the possibility that instead of $65,000 being required for harbours and rivers in that province in the year 1922, the Government may have to spend $150,000. The money, I presume, is voted in order that the public works on the Great Lakes may be repaired when they are destroyed by storms such as we had last night. In the vote for Nova Scotia the committee will see, on page 38 of the Estimates, a sum of $60,000 provided for harbours and rivers generally. Those hon. members who went home late last night and experienced the disagreeable weather we had then, must certainly have realized, if their thoughts were either on the Pacific or on the Atlantic, that some damage was being wrought by the storm on those two great bodies of water. This morning I received telegrams from my own constituency informing me that several public works along the shore were washed away last night; and knowing the nature of those works, I should judge that it would take at least $50,000 to repair them. Of course, the member for South Wellington does not know anything about that; he is a sea lawyer more or less, and he is only arguing this afternoon from hearsay.


Lewis Herbert Martell: The hon. gentleman's remarks are not complimentary to sea lawyers.


William Duff: Perhaps not, but the hon. member's arguments are advanced only for the sake of opposition to the votes. The minister is quite right in putting these votes in the estimates, because it is impossible for himself or his officials to know just how much Will be required in British
Columbia, Nova Scotia, or any other province. It is good business to have these estimates provided, and it has always been done. The hon. member, I repeat, is objecting only for the sake of opposition and not because he knows what he is talking about.


George Black: I do not always agree with my hon. friend from South Wellington (Mr. Guthrie), but I insist that a larger vote should be placed in the estimates for Goderich harbour than is provided. The Board of Trade at Goderich told me they estimated it would take $400,000 to fix the wharf, but they are only asking this year for about $100,000 to do necessary dredging so that boats can unload as they come in. I have a photograph showing eleven boats laden with grain all waiting to come into the harbour. Some are held back a week at a time.


Mr. FOURNIER:: How much grain was handled at Goderich last year?


George Black: Twenty-one million bushels of grain was brought into Goderich harbour last year.


William Charles Good: As one of the members from Ontario who supported the amendment to reduce the previous vote, I wish to say to my hon. friend from Lunenburg (Mr. Duff) that I did not do so from a spirit of opposition, hut for the reason that the vote last year was only one-third of the amount set apart and to be voted this year. Consequently it seems to me that without some justification for the increased expenditure we ought to cut it down.


William Duff: Is the hon. member satisfied with my explanation?


William Charles Good: With reference to the item for Ontario of $65,000, if it could be shown . it was not needed I would be only too glad to support an amendment to reduce it.


William Duff: It is impossible to show that it is not needed.


William Charles Good: I understand, in respect to the $65,000 item, that last year nearly the whole amount was spent, so perhaps it is reasonable to infer that at least as much will be needed this year. That is the only basis upon which I refrain from objecting to this vote. .


Mr. MALCOLM:: The remarks of the
hon. member for South Wellington (Mr. Guthrie) in regard to Goderich harbour, are very well timed, and I thoroughly agree
Supply-Public Works

with his request to the Minister of Public Works to consider the needs of that harbour. Goderich is the one point on lake Huron where the western grain is distributed to the millers of Ontario, and on that account alone deserves the support of this Government. But I would point out to my hon. friend from South Wellington that Goderich is not the natural harbour of refuge for lake Huron. Many old members will recall the awful storm of 1914 when much tonnage and many lives were lost on the Great Lakes. As a result the government of the day started to build a harbour of refuge farther north on the shore of lake Huron, Goderich being a little too far south to supply that needed shelter. Such a harbour of refuge is absolutely necessary for the safety of our mariners, and should be taken into favourable consideration by the minister. The losses on lake Superior and the other Great Lakes recently amply justify the need of more shelter.
I would point out to some members coming from inland ridings that those of us representing ridings with extensive lake frontage realize that these emergency expenditures to which the hon. Minister of Finance referred are at times entirely inadequate. My hon. friend from Lunenburg (Mr. Duff) referred to harbours destroyed in the recent storm. His remarks apply to lake harbours as well. Wharves that have been allowed to run down during the war years are now in a perilous condition, and in my riding to-day I do not think the wharves can be put in shape for half the emergency vote for the whole province. Therefore I think members from inland ridings should be tolerant of this emergency vote, and also of the vote for Goderich harbour because of the fact, as I have stated, that it is the only grain distributing harbour on the Great Lakes for a large part of Ontario.
I shall be glad to support the minister if he brings forward any vote in his supplementary estimates for a harbour of refuge north of Goderich, because we know that the men on the Great Lakes at the present time have not the protection which they should have against the severe storms which occasionally overwhelm them. If we had another storm similar to that of 1914 there would be again a great loss of life, and this we should prevent if possible by the construction of a harbour of refuge.


Mr. JOHNSON (Moosejaw) :: I think my hon. friend referred to the fact that 21,000,-

000	bushels of grain comes to Goderich harbour. Is any of that grain unloaded for transportation to other destinations, or is it all distributed to the millers in that section of the province?


Mr. DRUMMOND:: As one of those well acquainted with the conditions surrounding Goderich harbour and the adjacent country, I must take exception to the statement of my hon. friend with regard to Goderich harbour as a distributing point. Goderich is the distributing centre for grain for six or seven counties in the western part of Ontario, and I would urge the hon. minister to increase the grant so that these counties may be benefited.


Mr. BOYS:: Unfortunately I was called out when the hon. minister stated the total expenditure for last year. I notice the total appropriation for public works charged to income this year is $9,817,319.77; the amount asked last year for this service was $10,871,362.08. Can the minister tell me what the total expenditure was last year in connection with public works charged to income?


John Warwick King: My hon. friend is in error. The votes last year for public works totalled $13,188,000, and the amounl expended was $10,283,000.
Mr. BOYS* I thank the hon. minister for the answer, but I do not quite see how I am wrong. I hold in my hand the estimates for 1922, and on page 38 I see the amount to be voted is $10,871,362.08. Of course, I am not including the supplemen-taries. I suppose that accounts for the difference?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Mr. CARRUTHERS:: I would draw the attention of the Minister of Public Works to a really urgent case which has developed in my riding during the past two weeks, and I am afraid that if something is not done in the way of provision in the Supplementary Estimates the wheels of industry in that part of my constituency will be at least retarded if not entirely tied up.
1	have reference to the harbour at the town of Little Current, on the north channel of Georgian bay. As hon. members no doubt are aware, we have a large coal dock at that point handling from 100,000 to 200,000 tons of coal per annum, coal which is shipped in during the session of navigation and carried northward over the Al-goma Eastern railway to the various industries on that line. Up to two years

Supply-Public Works
ago boats of about 10,000 tons burden could carry the coal to the dock, but owing to the lowering of the water in lake Huron, probably due to the Chicago drainage canal and other causes, the channels of that lake are becoming so low that boats of large draft can no longer go through them. In this connection I should like to read a letter I have received from Mr. G. A. Montgomery, and of which no doubt the minister has a copy in his department:
Dear 'Sir,-The Steamer Collier owned by the Cleveland Cliffs Iron Company. Cleveland. O.. loaded with approximately 5,500 tons of coal for the Spanish River Pulp & Paper Mills, struck while coming to our dock at Little Current on Sunday, April 23rd. The point where the steamer grounded was in mid-channel just off Gibbons Point. Captain Wilson who was in charge of the vessel, claims he was on the ranges when the boat grounded. Steamer was drawing eighteen feet six, but there was only abount eighteen feet two or three inches of water. Damage to the vessel consisted of thirteen frames bent and three plates sprung. This is the seventeenth trip that Capt. Wilson has made to Little Current and he states the Collier was on exactly the same course as followed by him on previous trips. The Coilier is being repaired at Little Current by stopping up the leak with concrete. The Harbour Master at Little Current has been notified of the grounding and I understand he has, in turn, notified the Marine Department.
Following that, I received yesterday and the day before three or four telegrams. Here is one I received from the Soo:
Would appreciate anything you can do in removing danger of navigation at Little Current. Grounding of the steamer Collier already reported to you will have serious effect upon our business. Vessel owners making strenuous objections sending their boats to our dock on account of navigation difficulties that point.
I have also a telegram from the mayor of Little Current, as follows:
On last trip steamer Colilier aground in centre of channel. Bottom badly damaged. Something must be done at once or coal dock wiM have to close to large steamers.
The minister, I think, received a wire yesterday from the owners of the boat at Cleveland, reading as follows:
Cleveland, Ohio, May 16, 1922.
Steamer Collier entering Little Current channel April 23rd struck rock obstruction damaging eleven plates and frames to such extent boat obliged come down light. For drydocking cost of repairs approximately ten thousand dollars. Very necessary obstruction be removed. Considerable pressure is brought upon us from time to time move coal into Little Current as some Canadian owners have refused to carry coal to that place account of constant liability of damage.
A. E. R. Schneider, Cleveland Cliffs Iron Company.
I might say in passing that the Espanola Pulp and Paper Company consumes some
150 tons of coal every twenty-four hours throughout the year. They get all their coal from that dbck, so you can see what this means to them. If something is not done to remove this obstruction, that immense industry and. other industries along the north shore will have to close down. I trust that the minister will have this matter attended to immediately. I might even suggest that the Government dredge, which I believe is now fitting out at Midland, on the Georgian Bay, he taken up to Little Current to do the work, so that these boats can get in. It will be a serious national loss if this work is not done.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Harbours and rivers-Manitoba, $28,500.
Mr. LEADER:: I think this item is very modest in comparison with appropriations that have been made for similar work in some of the other provinces. I think it is entirely inadequate to take care of the situation that has developed in Manitoba. The other day I brought to the attention of the House the fact that the Assiniboine river had overflowed, and that considerable damage had been done. The Prime Minister assured me that this matter was engaging the attention of the Government, that they were endeavouring to find out the actual extent of the damage, and would report later. We really do not know the extent of the damages yet, but the Canadian Pacific Railway has made an estimate, and their figures go to show that from fifteen to twenty thousand acres of arable land have been flooded. We also read in the press that hundreds of men have been engaged night and day trying to stem the waters of the Assiniboine. I believe it is the duty of the Government to compensate these men for the work they have been forced to do, and to reimburse them for any damage they have suffered. I . would suggest that the minister ascertain the extent of the actutal damage as near as he can, and bring in a supplementary estimate to cover it. I might say for the benefit of the House that the overflowing of the Assiniboine river has been a political question in our constituency.


Mr. CALDWELL:: Any promises made?


Harry Leader: There have been promises made in the past, and I would suggest to the Government that they do not wait until the eve of an election before compensating these people for the damages they have suffered. The damage has already been done, and now is the time
Supply-Public Works

to take care of it. I was told that last fall engineers had gone over the ground and had made some observations, with what object I do not know; but that is all we have heard about it. I should like to read an extract from a letter signed by " Observer " to the editor of the Daily Graphic, a paper published in Portage la Prairie:
The Assiniboine river is under the Dominion government, not the provincial government. This was duly evidenced during two different elections run by the late government at Ottawa, when they with great earnestness, foresight and sympathy put large gangs of men on the work of building a dyke along the Assiniboine river. The activities, however, appeared to cease on each occasion immediately after the election day was passed.
I have read that just to warn the Government that now is the time to take action, instead of waiting until the eve of an election. I want to plead for the settlers in my constituency, and I hope that the Government will see fit to help them in their extremity.


James Dew Chaplin: What was the actual expenditure under this item last year?


John Warwick King: For harbours
and rivers generally, $6,341. The total expenditure last year was $27,000.


Mr. FORKE:: I am very glad that the hon. member for Portage la Prairie (Mr. Leader) has brought up this question of the overflowing of the Assiniboine river, because I had intended to bring it up myself. I am interested in the matter because the Assiniboine river has been overflowing its banks right down through the constituency of Brandon, and has done quite a lot of damage at Virden. The banks have also overflowed at Brandon, and a great deal of inconvenience has been caused, not only to the farmers in the district, but to the people in the city of Brandon itself. I do not know just exactly what the law is and what the responsibility of the Dominion government would be in this matter, but I know that the Department of the Interior have had officers out there taking levels and looking into the matter, and I think something ought to be done. I have no doubt that this year the damages that have occurred to the farmers amount to something over half a million dollars. It is a serious thing. The loss is not so very serious to the province as a whole, but it is very serious to the people who live in that fertile valley. I do hope the minister will look into the matter and that something will be done.
I have much pleasure in endorsing the remarks of the hon. member for Portage la Prairie.


Mr. BANCROFT:: I would like to ask
the minister about certain necessary work required in the region of Icelandic river. Has the minister decided to do any thing about that?


John Warwick King: I have not that
information here, but I will look into it and advise my hon. friend as to any recommendations to be made.


Leland Payson Bancroft: I would like to ask
one other question. I notice an item with respect to repairs to the wharf at Selkirk and it looks as though part of the work might have been done last year. Is the work under contract now, and if not will the contract for it be let by tender?


John Warwick King: No there is
no contract. There was an amount voted last year for re-construction but there has been no expenditure.


Leland Payson Bancroft: Is it the custom of
the department to carry out these works by contract?


John Warwick King: By contract
wherever possible.


Leland Payson Bancroft: I would like to see the minister do something about the work needed at Icelandic river. I think it is very necessary and would not involve a large expenditure. I notice that the estimate for Manitoba is about the only one that is cut down out of the estimates for all the provinces. I think the minister could reasonably carry out the work referred to this year without incurring any great expenditure.


Harry Leader: I would like to ask the
minister whether any money was paid out last year in the Portage la Prairie district in connection with the dyking of the Assiniboine river, and if so can he give us the date of that expenditure?


John Warwick King: I do not think there was any expenditure last year on works of that kind.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Harbours and rivers-Saskatchewan and Alberta, $20,000.
Mr. KENNEDY (Edmonton) :: How is this money to be spent?

Supply-Public Works


John Warwick King: This amount
is required to make provision for repairs and improvements to harbours and rivers under the control of the Public Works Department in Saskatchewan and Alberta. These are reported on by the district engineer, are under his control, and the expenditure is made as the necessity may arise.


Donald MacBeth Kennedy: In that case it is simply a contingency vote.
Mr. KING Kootenay):	Yes a contingency vote.


Hugh Guthrie: Was anything spent
last year?


John Warwick King: The sum of
$3,332 was expended last year.


James Dew Chaplin: I see the minister in
this particular case has adopted the principle which I laid down in the case of several other provinces, and has reduced the item from $52,500, at which it stood last year, to $20,000. How can he justify his action in respect to the other provinces?


John Warwick King: I imagine that
this estimate, as in the case of the estimates for other provinces, has been made by the officials employed to do the work. It is they who have supplied this information.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Harbours amd Rivers-British Columbia, $193,480.
Henry Herbert Stevens: I am not going to
object to this vote. However, I wish to ask the minister if it would be permissible under this vote to bring up a matter which does not appear in the Estimates but to which I would like to direct the attention of the committee-I refer to the matter of dry dock facilities at the port of Vancouver. Some objection to the bringing of it up may be raised on almost any item, but as the amount does not appear in the estimates I must call attention to it in connection with some vote or other.


John Warwick King: My hon. friend
had better bring it up when we come to consider capital expenditure.


Henry Herbert Stevens: With all due deference to the minister it is not a capital expenditure. I only wish to have a definite understanding that I can bring the matter up under some item. It is quite customary, in dealing with the estimates, to permit discussion of certain matters in connection with particular items.


John Warwick King: I have no objection to discussing it. Perhaps it would suit the hon. gentleman if the discussion took place on dry docks-that would be under capital expenditure.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I am satisfied so long as that is the understanding.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Dredging-'Maritime provinces ; Ontario and Quebec ; Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta; British Columbia, $1,480,000.
Henry Herbert Stevens: I wonder whether the minister will be good enough to give us a brief statement of what this expenditure covers. I know that it deals with the general dredging vote of the various provinces, and it is one, I think, there should be no objection to; but it would be interesting to the committee to have a brief statement respecting this very large sum, including what amount was spent last year?


John Warwick King: This amount is chiefly for the operation of the various departmental dredging plants in the various provinces, covering their maintenance, the wages paid, and the supplies necessary to keep the plants in operation.


Henry Herbert Stevens: These supplies are all purchased by tender, are they not, and is that policy to be continued?


John Warwick King: Yes I think so.


William Alves Boys: Is this a vote for contingencies, or is it based on certain definite items?


John Warwick King: There is a small contingent vote of some $30,000 I think.


William Alves Boys: I do not wish the minister to go into detail. I desire to bring a matter to the attention of the department. I think it has been mentioned two or three times in the past, and I suppose, strictly speaking, it would come under the heading of dredging. A boat was sunk at the wharf at Big Bay point on lake Simcoe, nine miles from Barrie. I understand it still lies there. It is privately owned, but it is beside the government wharf, and very seriously interferes with navigation. I do not know Whether the minister considers it his duty to provide money to remove a boat sunk under those conditions, but from the standpoint of the use of a government wharf, it must be got rid of, if the wharf is to be used. I do not know whether the Government have ever considered What is to be done in that connection.
Supply-Public Works


John Warwick King: That would be a matter for the Marine Department.


Mr. GARDINER:: Are there any dredging operations carried on at Port Nelson, and, if so, does this vote include an amount for that dredging?


John Warwick King: Not by the Public Works Department; it is Railways and Canals, and I am not conversant with that.


Mr. SALES:: Will the minister tell us where dredging takes place in Saskatchewan?


John Warwick King: I do not think there is any dredging in Saskatchewan.


Thomas Sales: Will the minister cut out the word " Saskatchewan?"


John Warwick King: I would hardly think that would be wise. I am not sure, hut there might be some dredging required there. I understand that is the usual heading.


Mr. GARLAND (Bow River) :: What is the reason for the increase in this amount?


John Warwick King: With regard to this increase, we have the report of Chief Engineer Cameron. The present amount includes the operation of the dredge Plam-onder which was carried on last year under the appropriation for harbours and rivers Saskatchewan-Alberta. This represents an additional item this year.


Edward Joseph Garland: How
much?


John Warwick King: There is the additional amount of $45,850, for rebuilding dredges Nos. 201 and 210. The former is a 12-foot hydraulic dredge employed in keeping open the channel at the mouth of the river at lake Winnipeg. The latter is to rebuild the dredge which the department has operated for some years at Win-nipegosis on lake Winnipegosis.


Mr. SPEAKMAN:: Is this vote purely for the purpose of assisting navigation, or does it include any appropriation for reclamation or drainage work?


John Warwick King: Navigation, I think.


John Babington Macaulay Baxter: What about dredging in the maritime provinces?


John Warwick King: There is dredging at the following places: Bathurst, in Gloucester county; Bayswater, in Royal
filr. Boys.]	[DOT]
county; Campbellton, in Restigouche, and Kennebecasis in Royal, lower St. Louis in Kent county, Millidgeville bay, St. John county, Miramichi bay, Northumberland county, Shediac in Westmoreland, St. Louis river in Kent county, Richibucto harbour in Kent county, and Richibucto cape in Kent county, Moulies river in Kent county, Shediac island in Westmoreland county, Summerville in Royal, Wilson's beach in Charlotte county, and St. Andrews in Charlotte county.


Mr. McBRIDE:: Is any of this $400,000 going to be spent in Shuswap lake?


John Warwick King: I think not any of this amount.


Thomas George McBride: I have had an experience of over twenty years in connection with steamboat work in British Columbia and I do not know of any place more urgently in need of dredging than Shuswap lake. Nothing has been done there now for nearly ten years. The wharf is practically useless and, such as it is, steamboats cannot get near it except at high water. Shuswap lake has a shore mileage of nearly 800 miles and there is practically no road in that vicinity. The people are almost entirely dependent upon the water to get in and out from the farms, and I think something should be done to relieve the situation.


John Warwick King: The matter has been under consideration. To carry on the work suggested would mean the construction of a new dredge at that point, and the matter has not been finally decided.


Henry Herbert Stevens: There is a dredge dismantled on the lake at the present time. All it requires is a scow to work with the dredge. I am almost certain I saw a dredge at Chase or Shuswap last year.


Mr. SIMPSON:: Will the minister consider the matter of dredging the St. Mary's river, so as to deepen the channel to correspond with that on the American side, and of improving the entrance at the government wharf at Sault Ste. Marie? I understand one of the Canadian Pacific steamers grounded there a short time ago, and it was detained there some fifteen hours while trying to get into the government wharf.


John Warwick King: The only amount that will be spent from this appropriation at that point will be small. No large expenditure will be made.

Supply-Public Works


Thomas Edward Simpson: I hope the minister will consider, when he is making up the supplementary estimates, the question of the government wharf at that point.


Edward Joseph Garland: If we
might refer again to the item for dredging, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, I understood the minister to say that the increase was due to the repairing of a couple of scows and some other work, I did not catch what it was. Would the minister give us the actual amount covering these items?


John Warwick King: I will just read the details again. The present amount includes the operation of one dredge, Pla-monder, which last year was commenced under the appropriation, harbours and rivers for Saskatchewan and Alberta. This represents an additional item this year. There is also an additional amount asked for of $45,850, for rebuilding dredges Nos. 201 and 210. The former is a 12-foot hydraulic dredge employed in keeping open the channel at the mouth of the Red river. Those are the two items.


Edward Joseph Garland: This entire increase then will go to work in Manitoba?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Thomas George McBride: Is it not possible to apply some of this $400,000 to dredging at Shuswap lake, to build a dredge and hopper scow? I know the work is very urgent.


John Warwick King: I should be very glad to give the matter consideration. If I remember aright, the information which I had in the department was that this meant a very large expenditure for new equipment. The matter will be further considered, and I shall be glad to go into it with my hon. friend.


Thomas George McBride: The Dominion engineer, Mr. Doncaster, and I went over the ground, and we came to the conclusion that the plant required to do the work would cost about $37,000, not a very large sum.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Roads and bridges-Burlington channel-to complete new bridge, $20,000.
Mr. ANDERSON:: What has the Burlington channel bridge cost to date?


John Warwick King: The amount of the contract was $228,896. There is also inspection and contingencies amounting to $19,004.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Edmonton-repairs to bridge, $12,000.
Donald MacBeth Kennedy: What is this bridge, and what are the specific repairs?


John Warwick King: This was a bridge built during the territorial days in the province of Alberta.


Donald MacBeth Kennedy: Is that across the Saskatchewan?


John Warwick King: The province is to carry a portion of the cost. On April 10, 1911, an arrangement was made with the city of Edmonton and the Edmonton, Yukon and Pacific Railway Company- Canadian Northern-that the cost of maintenance and repairs should be borne equally by the city of Edmonton, the Edmonton, Yukon and Pacific Railway Company, and the Department of Public Works.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Telegraph and telephone lines-Saskatchewan and Alberta, $7,800.
Mr. EVANS:: With regard to the item "telegraph lines generally," there is an old telegraph line that was built away back in the eighties which is still intact, running from Humboldt to Fort Pitt in Saskatchewan. This line is of no earthly use. It runs through the fields and is in the way of the farmers. Last year, at a cost of some hundreds of dollars, part of it was removed to the road allowance. It runs all the way alongside the Canadian Northern main line which is equipped with telegraph service. The old line is never used, and it is only a source of expense. There are two or three line repairers and two or three telegraph operators, all getting fair wages, I 'believe, and they could be used1 for some other useful purpose. What is' the policy of the minister in regard to this line? It might as well be taken down and the material used or sold localy in the construction of telephone lines.


John Warwick King: The policy of the department is to withdraw from any field where other service is being given. The Dominion telegraph and telephone service is not intended to serve the more closely settled places, but rather to reach out into fields where private enterprise would not go. I would be glad if my hon. friend would discuss the matter he speaks of with me, and if it is possible for us to withdraw from that field, we would be glad1 to do so, and to dispose of what plant and. equipment we have.
Supply-Public Works

Mr. SALE'S: It has been possible for the last fiftpen years to withdraw the service which my hon. friend (Mr. Evans) speaks of. I used to live near this line, and it is of no earthly use.


Mr. MacKELVIE :: The minister stated a moment ago that it was not the policy of the Government to continue telephone lines in sections where other lines were in operation. Does that policy apply to the Okanagan district in British Columbia?


John Warwick King: My hon. friend knows there are always local conditions to be considered when discussing the advantages of any public service. We have been giving some consideration to the situation, but I am not in a position to say that the Government are prepared to abandon their lines in that district.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
British Columbia-telegraph and telephone lines, $23,000.
Thomas George McBride: I am sorry that this estimate is reduced from last year. If there is anything that induces people to stay in a rural district-and make their home there-'it is an adequate telephone service. I think the minister should have increased rather than decreased the vote.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Public Works-Miscellaneous, $984,200.
Henry Herbert Stevens: This item contains many miscellaneous votes. It refers to a dry-dock, and immediately connected with that are subsidies to five dry docks. Was the contract entered into by the Government with the Burrai'd Dry Dock Company properly drawn, and in accordance with the provisions of the Dry Dock Subsidies Act?


John Warwick King: Yes.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I desire to bring to the attention of the committee very briefly a matter of great importance. I may give a very brief history of the drydock situation at Vancouver. I notice, by the way, that the minister is apparently not listening. I should like to .engage his attention if he will be kind enough to listen to me, because this is a very importnat matter. About the year 1912, or 1913, the first attempt was made to provide for a drydock in the port of Vancouver under the Dry Dock Subsidies Act; but the outbreak of the war prevented that scheme from being proceeded with. Recently,

within the last two years, the Wallace Shipyards, one of the oldest shipbuilding concerns on the Pacific coast, which is a successful organization that has been operating for thirty years, and Mr. J. J. Coughlin, whose firm constructed a number of ships of about eight thousand tons each, during the war, combined and made application, under the Dry Dock Subsidies Act, for a subsidy for the construction of a 15,000-ton dry dock in Vancouver. Under the act they had to comply with certain conditions, and these were all carefully observed. Ultimately, about a year and a half ago, I think an Order in Council was passed authorizing the Minister of Public Works to enter into what is known as the Subsidy Contract. The Subsidy Contract was finally signed, after a great deal of Checking up by the officials of [DOT]'the department and the chief engineer. That contract was in every sense a compliance with the act. I have not been able to learn of a single objection to it so far as the law is concerned. Recently, most unexpectedly, the minister has announced that this dry dock is not to be proceeded with. I desire to lay before the committee some very pertinent [DOT] reasons why the work should be undertaken. A short time ago 1 asked the minister for some information. He gave me certain facts and stated that he had no information on the other points, which I am now able to supply. I asked regarding the various ports of Canada. One of my questions was as to the tonnage in the major ports of the Dominion. The minister replied that he had no information on this point. I cannot understand why that statement should have been made, because I was able to get the information subsequently from the reports of the Customs Department. I will give the tonnage of the ports and point out to the committee that the port which has the largest tonnage in Canada is the only one that is absolutely without any dry dock facilities. The following are the figures:
Port
Total Inwards Outwards
Victoria, B.C.. .	8,325,722
Vancouver, B.C. 12,383,807 St. John, N.B..	2,719,394
Montreal, P.Q.. 11,401,883 Quebec, P.Q...	3,656,198
Halifax, NjS... 4,424,777
4,168,992	4,156,730
6,112,624	6,271,183
1,359,711	1,359,683
5,596,499	5,805,384
1,829,879	1,826,319
2,227,216	2,197,557
Now, of all these, which, are the major ports of Canada, the port of Vancouver has the largest tonnage. It exceeds Montreal by almost one million tons. But it

S upp ly-Pu blic W orks
is only lair to state that Montreal is closed for five months of the year *while Vancouver is open the year round. That, however, does not alter the fact that the tonnage, inwards and outwards, in the port of Vancouver exceeds any other port in Canada, some of them by two, three or four million tons. I have a return showing the dry dock facilities of all these ports and will briefly refer to that. The figures are:
Breadth Depth
Length	at entrance	over sillft.	ft.	ft.Victoria	. 450	65	28Victoria (being built)	. . 1,150	135	40Prince Rupert	. . 600	110	32Halifax	. . 567	89	28St. John	. . 1,150	133	42Quebec, Lome....	. . 600	57	25Champ'lain	. . 1,153	120	40Montreal	. . 601	110	31
It will toe seen from this that every port except Vancouver has dry dock facilities, although they all have very much less tonnage than that port.
Now I come to the point. The contract for the dry dock that we have asked for in Vancouver was entered into by the then Minister of Public Works, on behalf of the government of Canada, under the Dry-docks Subsidies Act, which was passed in 1910. Under that act any company may make application to the Dominion government for a subsidy-in this case amounting to 4 per cent on $2,500,000-providing certain regulations and provisions are complied with. This company complied with every detail of the requirements of the act. The government of the day went carefully into the matter, not just prior to the election but a year ago last January, if I am not mistaken, and an Order in Council was passed authorizing the construction of the dock. During the interim engineers of the department checked the plans, and corrections and changes were made; for instance, the dock was changed from a graving to a floating dock, until finally the subsidy contract itself was signed, as I have already stated.
We cannot understand why the minister should, without any reason so far as I can see, arbitrarily cancel this contract for a dry dock in the port of Vancouver, the tonnage of which exceeds that of any other port in Canada. It is useless to say that a dry dock at Victoria will serve the tonnage entering and leaving the port of Vancouver. I am not criticizing Victoria, Prince Rupert or any other port on the
Pacific coast, but I want the House to understand that Vancouver is the point of discharge for ocean ships. But a great deal of our repair work is done on the oriental side of the Pacific at Hong Kong, Shanghai, and other ports, because those also are ports of discharge, and ships being then again empty, repairs are done there which should and might properly be done in Vancouver.
I have a telegram here from the Vancouver Board of Trade, dated May 18, 1922, addressed to myself, which I should like to read. It is as follows:
At a mass meeting held last evening attended by over twelve hundred citizens of the Dower Mainland representing the centres of Vancouver, New Westminster, Port Moody, North Vancouver, Point Grey, West Vancouver, Chilliwack, Clover-dale, Surrey, Abbottsford, Mission, Langley, Soluth Vancouver, together with representatives of over eighty organizations in the city of Vancouver called together by the Mayor of Vancouver and President of the Board of Trade to discuss the telegram received from the Honourable Doctor King intimating that your Government had decided not to continue the work on the Vancouver drydock, unanimously passed the following resolution.
This mass meeting does here and now register a most emphatic protest against the action of the Government in refusing to continue with the work of providing a drydock for Vancouver. The meeting further resolved to request the Dominion government to immediately reconsider their decision and that the Honourable Dootor King be urged to come to Vancouver at the earliest moment for investigation purposes with a view to providing this much needed utility. Letter follows.
The hon. member for Burrard (Mr. Clark) who has been called away by the death of his sister, would like to make a few remarks in regard to this item, and if the minister will permit, under this or some other item, further discussion of this matter when he has given consideration to what I have already said, his courtesy will, I am sure, be appreciated.
At six o'clock the Speaker resumed the Chair, and the House toook recess.
After Recess
The House resumed at eight o'clock. PRIVATE BILLS

[Stage Direction]
The House in Committee of Supply, Mr. Gordon in the Chair.
Public Works-miscellaneous, $984,200.
John Warwick King: Before six
o'clock the member for Vancouver Centre (Mr. Stevens) had spoken on the matter of dry dock accommodation at Vancouver. He requested that an opportunity be also given the member for Burrard (Mr. Clark) at a later date t6 discuss the same subject. I am rather anxious that we should proceed with Supply, but I may tell my hon. friend that an opportunity will be given the member for Burrard, possibly under the Supplementary Estimates, if that is satisfactory.


Henry Herbert Stevens: The committee will
realize that the request I have made on behalf of the hon. member for Burrard is not without good reason. As I intimated, he has been called away by the death of a member of his family, and I have asked that he be allowed on another occasion to discuss the matter because he is very anxious to present his views upon it. I have no desire to interfere with the progress of the estimates, but it is somewhat difficult to know under just what item the matter can be again taken up. If the minister can give me an assurance, that is all I require.


John Warwick King: There will be no difficulty about the matter.


Mr. LADNER:: I have received a very strong telegram conveying the views of the people of the lower mainland, and, I think I may safely say, of the province of British Columbia, in regard to this question. One of the features of the election campaign was the unanimity of both parties on the point that above all things the dry dock in Vancouver would be proceeded with, no matter what party was returned to power. We heard that on many occasions, although there were vague rumours from the East that perhaps some

Supply-Public Works
thing might happen in the event of the present Government being returned to office. Now, a dry dock is a business necessity. The member for Vancouver Centre (Mr. Stevens) went into the details of this particular matter. I shall not do so, but im a word, I would urge upon the minister the importance of proceeding with this work. Ships leave this port for China, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, California, Mexico, South America and various places on the Pacific, and yet it is the only port of any considerable size in Canada without dry dock facilities. It is contended that sooner or later Victoria will have a dry dock that will provide for all our needs; but if I understand the situation rightly it will be four or five years before that dock is completed. The dock which it was contemplated to build at Vancouver would be completed, we understood, within a comparatively short time. I hope the Government will realize what it means to the people of Vancouver to have this dock built. We have guarding that great port, on the top of Crown mountain, two peaks having the appearance of crouching lions. They watch over the harbour, and I want to warn my hon. friends in the Government that these silent figures may make themselves heard before long. My hon. friends may hear their roar in a short while when the provincial elections come on. However, that is another side of the question; I am simply emphasizing the importance, from a purely business point of view, of proceeding with the construction of this dry dock. All the important organizations and public bodies throughout the lower mainland are at a loss to understand why the government of a great country like this can cancel a contract for such an undertaking in a city like Vancouver, the possible maximum liability being only about $112,000 a year. When we consider the large amount of money spent in other portions of the country, and realize the necessity of completing this project, the committee will readily appreciate the difficulty of explaining the Government's action to the people in that part of Canada.


John Warwick King: This matter
will undoubtedly come before the committee again, and I shajl not take up time to-night discussing it. I will reserve my remarks until a later date. I am glad that the information in regard to the port of Vancouver has been submitted to the House; hon. members will have an opportunity of learn-
127 i
ing just the amount of business that passes through that port. I shall not discuss the question at this juncture.


Mr. HOEY:: I was not in the House
when the items for Manitoba were being considered, and there is a matter I should like to refer to. I received this morning, from a reeve in the municipality of Lac du Bonnet, a letter on behalf of the mail carriers in that district. He informs me that they are unable to reach their destination owing to the dilapidated state of a certain bridge on the Winnipeg river. It would seem from this letter that this is a matter that ought to receive the immediate attention of the department. I shall be glad to hand the communication to the minister at any time.


John Warwick King: I shall be
pleased to have the information, although I do not know of any Dominion bridge in that vicinity.


Robert Alexander Hoey: The matter comes within
the purview of the Dominion department inasmuch as the mail carriers cannot reach Bird river and Littonia in their gasoline launches.


Edward Joseph Garland: How
much money was spent on the National Gallery of Canada last year, and what accounts for the increase this year?


John Warwick King: Of the vote of
$40,000 last year, some $39,000 was spent. An expenditure of $50,000 is estimated for this year. The work is carried on under a board authorized by statute, who undertake the care of works of art and see to their exhibition in various parts of the country.


Edward Joseph Garland: According to the Auditor General's report, the amount spent last year was $19,982.


John Warwick King: That was the
year before; the expenditure last year was $39,000.


Mr. THURSTON:: A little further down I notice there is an item for river gauging and metering. Last year the appropriation was $23,450; this year it is $63,200. Why this increase?


John Warwick King: Eleven thousand dollars was spent last year. We are asking for $23,000 this year.

John Warwick King: Under the second item, land and cable telegraph lines, lower St. Lawrence and maritime provinces, including working expenses of vessels required for cable service, I find: Expenditure on staff, $130,000; repairs and supplies, $95,000; making a total of $225,000 for last year.


Edward Joseph Garland: There is an item for Alberta telegraph and telephone lines of $121,000 odd. Do those lines pay?


John Warwick King: No, they do not.


Edward Joseph Garland: Are those telegraph lines along the railway?


John Warwick King: They are not along the railway lines except in northern British Columbia, where they follow the Grand Trunk Pacific. With regard to the

Alberta expenses, I find:	expenditure on
staff, $71,000; repairs and supplies, $95,000.


Edward Joseph Garland: What I wTant to know is where the lines are.


John Warwick King: We will probably get on better if I answer one question at a time.


William Charles Good: The answer is quite satisfactory. I do not wish the minister to divide the expenses in each item; I merely want a rough approximation as to the relation between the operating and maintenance costs.


George Newcombe Gordon: Shall the resolution carry?


Edward Joseph Garland: No. I should like the minister to answer my question.


John Warwick King: The lines are located as followers: Onion lake-Edmonton line, 222 miles; Peace river line, 754 miles; Fort McMurray, 245 miles; Lac La Biche line, 78 miles; telephone lines (scattered), 126i miles; or a total of about 1,425 miles in Alberta.


Robert Milton Johnson: Are these lines used for commercial purposes, as, if so, they would be a source of revenue?


John Warwick King: Yes, they are used for commercial purposes, and they are a source of revenue.


Robert Milton Johnson: Does this vote represent the deficit? Is there a counter entry representing the revenue from these lines?


John Warwick King: A revenue account is kept in the department, but this vote is for operation and maintenance only.


Robert Milton Johnson: Then the revenue account does not come under this estimate at all?

[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
St. John harbour-improvements, $850,000.
John Babington Macaulay Baxter: I would like to ask
whether the vote for St. John harbour is to be devoted entirely to the construction of Courtenay bay or whether the minister can hold out any hope that the very much needed work of extending the Negro Point breakwater to Partridge Island will be carried on this year.
I do not wish to take up much time, because I think the minister has some knowledge at all events of the gravity of that situation, and I am sure the officers of his department understand it thoroughly. The Minister of Railways (Mr. Kennedy) was recently in St. John, and I am sure that from a personal inspection he too, has been impressed with the necessity of this work. The work of course, is necessarily a local one, because you cannot build a breakwater without a locality, but it is a most important work, not alone from the standpoint of the city which is in its vicinity, but from the viewpoint that the federal government has expended millions of dollars in digging out to a depth sufficient to float very large ocean steamships, a large space of territory between the breakwater and the present wharves. The government has also spent a large amount of money in providing very modern and first-class piers, but the outer berth at these piers is utterly impossible of utilization and the other two berths that lie between the piers can only be used under advantageous weather conditions. It means, that in the port of St. John, while we have very excellent though limited accommodation, we cannot count on being able to take advantage of that accommodation at all times during the winter. If there is a storm from the south of even moderate severity, it renders these berths simply impracticable for shipping and since the large dredging operations in Courtenay bay, I think the undertow on the west side has been increased. I am not asking to stop
any work in St. John harbour, but I would like very much to have the minister show an ability to hold out some hope that this very pressing necessity might be grappled with before next fall.
I believe the department once had under consideration, not an expensive means of doing the work, but a comparatively inexpensive means. At first the engineers insisted on having large granite blocks which would have to be quarried at some distance and brought, at a great cost to the site, but I know that more recently representations have been made that the stone of which Partridge island is composed would be perfectly good, if taken off in sufficiently large quantities, and by a very simple device it would be possible to transport that stone by means of an overhead cable and drop it into this gap, reducing the cost of construction to a minimum. I do not want to elaborate on how this thing can be done but I would like to know that the necessity of doing the work in what I might call the immediate future is engaging the attention of the Government, and I would also like to know whether the Government thinks it can see its way clear to carry on this work.


Mr. MacLAREN:: Might I add a word on the same subject? I would not urge the minister to undertake at the present time a work that is not imperative, but when a work is in my view absolutely imperative I would take the opportunity, as I do now, of impressing upon him the importance, not exactly of undertaking a new work, but the completion of an old work, and that is the extension of the Negro Point breakwater to which my colleague has just referred, to the adjacent island known as Partridge island. I am quite aware that the minister is familiar with the geography of the area I have mentioned, and it is at the request of the Board of Trade of St. John that I am bringing this matter for ward. I understand that the Board of Trade have also communicated with the minister direct in regard to this matter? Why do I urge this? I urge it for the protection of the wharves, of the shipping, and of the work in Courtenay bay-for the protection of all three. During stormy weather, as happened on more than one occasion last winter, the wharves on both sides of the harbour suffered considerable damage. Not only that, but several steamers suffered damage from being pounded against these wharves during the gale. Furthermore, gales have the result
Supply-Public Works

of washing sand into the area of Courtenay bay which is now being dredged for the provision of extensions for the Atlantic service, the sand coming in as the dredging is being done. I would therefore urge the minister to undertake this work as it is imperative to save property, as well as loss in connection with the work that is actually going on. The object, I think, will be clear to the House. The extension of the breakwater will prevent the seas washing into the harbour under the influence of winds coming from certain directions. I also should be pleased if the minister could give us some encouraging statement regarding this matter.


John Warwick King: This amount of $850,000 is for the continuation of the work in Courtenay bay, and an amount of $65,000 will be required for maintenance and general repairs within the harbour. No provision has been made by the Government for the extension of the breakwater to which my hon. friends from St. John have been referring. Undoubtedly that is a work of great importance to the harbour and it will also involve a very considerable expenditure, but it is not the purpose of the Government to proceed with it this year.

John Warwick King: It will cost probably in the vicinity of another million.


Mr. RYCKMAN:: Has any provision been made for the payment of the fees of the architect, Mr. John Pearson?


John Warwick King: If Mr. Pearson undertakes new work, such as the completion of the tower, that would have to be provided for. Probably my hon. friend is referring to some accounts now outstanding with Mr. Pearson. That matter is under consideration by the department, and we are hoping for an adjustment, but we have not made provision at present for the fees that are claimed by Mr. Pearson.


Edmond Baird Ryckman: 
Lewis Herbert Martell: Will my hon. friend tell me who is responsible for the condition which obtains?


Edmond Baird Ryckman: I will answer my hon. friend by saying this: If I had undertaken to do this work, and if the appropriation, under the contract as at first contemplated, was exhausted, and my employer told me to proceed and spend twice as much I would ask him for the payment of something on account. I would remind that employer of the provisions of the arrangement under which I was first employed and to which he was quite willing to agree when the contract was first undertaken. I have found Mr. Pearson to be a reasonable man. Furthermore, I am sure he does not have the least idea that I am saying one word on his behalf to-night; but I must say to the minister that I have heard this matter greatly talked about.


Lewis Herbert Martell: May I ask my hon. friend another question?


Edmond Baird Ryckman: My hon. friend may ask any question he likes and I will answer it to the best of my ability, but I would like now to conclude what I have to say.
I have heard of it since I came to Ottawa, and I heard of it in the East and in the West. Surely, if this is a business government, they should get to work and reach some modus vivendi with the architect, and carry on until the building is completed. If an arrangement cannot be made with the architect, discharge him, get some other architect and go ahead. The statement that the late government was to blame is no answer. I am not trying to excuse them for any blame that may rest upon them in connection with this matter. I believe if this thing goes on, it will result in a scandal if this magnificent building which we admire so much, in which there is a spirit which cannot be found elsewhere, be left in an uncompleted condition.


Some hon. MEMBERS:: Oh, oh.


Edmond Baird Ryckman: My hon friends have taken a meaning out of my remarks which pleases them more than it occupies my mind. I was thinking of the nobility of this building and how it must impress every one who comes within its precincts. I say that it is a pity to have it go abroad that, by reason of this letter, which in law I submit is no defence, they are going to have a wrangle with the architect, that the building is not going to be completed, things are to remain at a standstill and the country is to suffer.


Lewis Herbert Martell: Was there not a contract let by the late government? If so, why was it that a dispute occurred between them and the architect? Why is my hon. friend so impatient and in such a hurry for the present administration, before they have had an opportunity to fully consider the case, to rectify a mistake made by the late government? The nobility of the building is not sufficient justification for the payment of enormous fees.


Edmond Baird Ryckman: I think it would be well if the hon. member directed this question to the Minister of Public Works. My hon. friend is giving the matter a twist as I said nothing to warrant his remark. I have not suggested that one cent more than a fair and just remuneration should be paid. My point is that there is money owing, and if there is money owing, it should be paid.
Supply-Public Works


Lewis Herbert Martell: I presume my hon.
friend is a lawyer, and if so, he must know that a person is bound by a written contract. If the architect guaranteed with the government of Canada to erect this building at a certain maximum cost, then why should he be paid for more than that cost?


Edmond Baird Ryckman: I have seen the letter and the letter shows that my hon. friend's premises are incorrect.


John Babington Macaulay Baxter: I would ask the hon. member for Hants (Mr. Martell) if he thinks there is a written contract which would justify the previous government in refusing to make a payment to the government architect, why he prefaces his remarks by an attempt to make it appear before the country that the late government did something wrong? Is it so absolutely necessary to sneer at the late government and belabour it on every occasion?


John Warwick King: I think the committee should understand the position which exists today in regard to the Parliament Buildings, and the payment of the amount claimed by Mr. Pearson. When the buildings were first started an arrangement was made whereby a committee of this House, appointed by the leaders of the two parties, undertook to carry on the construction of this building. Up to date that work has been performed by this committee. Arrangements with the architect Were made with the knowledge of the committee, and when the cost began to exceed $5,000,000, a claim was made by Mr. Pearson for further commission. An investigation was made by that committee and they recommended that he should be paid a commission on some $2,000,000, in addition to the five million that had been expended. That is the recommendation that is before the Public Works Department to-day. As hon. member's may understand, many members of the committee that acted up to December of last year are not now in Parliament, and there is to-day no committee. As far as the Public Works Department is concerned, we have certain recommendations and minutes coming from this committee which suggests a fair settlement with Mr. Pearson. Mr. Pearson has not seen fit to accept the suggestion of that committee. He is contending for a larger commission, rightly or wrongly. Up to date commissions have been paid, to Mr. Pearson, to the amount of some $289,000
fMr. Ryckman.]
and to Mr. Marchand some $52,000, making a total of $342,000 paid in architects' commissions. The hon. member from East Toronto (Mr. Ryckman) suggested that the Government should issue a fiat. As far as we are concerned we have no great objection, if that is the wish, to issue a fiat, and let Mr. Pearson go to court. It is true suggestions have been made that we should get together and arrive at something that would be equitable and fair. Personally, I take the position, as far as the Department of Public Works is concerned, that in taking over this work that was formerly under the control of a committee of Parliament, we must, at least, accept their suggestion in matters with which they had been dealing up to the time the committee ceased to exist. That is the position of the claim to-day. It is receiving further consideration. I may, in the course of a few days, make some recommendation to the Government in regard to it.


Robert James Manion: What is the intention of the Department of Public Works regarding the tower? An item appeared in the press stating that it was the intention riot to proceed any further with the building of the tower. Is the minister ready to make a statement with regard to that?


John Warwick King: It is- not proposed to continue the construction of the tower this year. We may ask to have plans prepared with a view to going on next session.


Edmond Baird Ryckman: I was not in any sense levelling an attack at the present minister who has been in his office such a short time.
I was hoping that I would have from the minister an assurance-which I think the minister has given me, and which I hope I can take as an assurance-that this matter will be taken up and remedied at as early a date as possible.


Robert Gardiner: Can the minister give us any information as to why the building has cost so much more than was intended . in the first place?


John Warwick King: The building is more elaborate and much larger than intended in the first place, and we are all familiar with the increase in cost of material and supplies generally. I think that would account for the great increase in cost.


William Charles Good: Is that item of $700,000 for work that has been done or that is to be done?


John Warwick King: That is to he
done.


Robert Gardiner: Were there any specific contracts entered into between the government and contractors with regard to this building?


John Warwick King: There is a contract with the firm of Peter Lyall and Sons on a percentage, or force account basis.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.

[Stage Direction]
Department of Health-the administration of the acts respecting Food and Drugs, Honey and Maple Products, and Opium and Narcotic Drugs, $115,565.
Robert James Manion: Will the minister explain the large increase in this estimate from $80,000 to $111,565?


Hon. H. S. BELAND (Minister of the Department of Health) :: There is an increase in this estimate of $31,565, which is accounted for, first by the payment of seven officials who live outside of Ottawa and who formerly were paid out of civil government. They consist of one analyst in the Montreal laboratory, one analyst at Halifax, two analysts at Winnipeg, two analysts at Vancouver, and one senior inspector of food at Vancouver. That will account for $19,565 of the increase. The remaining $12,000 of the increase is due to the naturally increasing work in connection with the enforcement of the Opium and Narcotic Drug Act.


Robert James Manion: We are all interested in regard to the habit-forming character of the different drugs, and I should be pleased if the minister would give to the committee a brief sketch of the work that is going on in his department in its endeavour to eliminate the drug habit in this country.


Henri Sévérin Béland: This work is being followed very closely. Though the quantity of narcotics entering into Canada through ordinary, permitted channels has immensely decreased during the last three years, I am sorry to convey to the committee the information that the illicit introduction of opium and its derivatives, such as morphine, heroin and cocaine has considerably increased. The smuggling in of opium is carried on particularly on the western coast, whilst the illicit introduction of other drugs, such as cocaine for example, is carried on especially through eastern ports. I may, if I am permitted for a moment, give to the committee the number of prose-

That makes a total during the last year of 835 convictions. This will convey to the committee the extent of the illicit traffic 'in narcotic drugs in Canada. For this reason, it is the intention of the department to follow up as closely as possible and to prosecute illicit dealers in the year just commencing.


Mr. McKENZIE:: Did I understand
the minister to say that he got a conviction in each prosecution?


Henri Sévérin Béland: Those are all convictions.


Daniel Duncan McKenzie: I was thinking the
minister must have had his own magistrate.


Mr. MARCIL (Bonaventure) :: Are the
convictions followed by fines or imprisonment?


Henri Sévérin Béland: In those cases the sentence is fine or imprisonment.


Robert Alexander Hoey: Have any Japanese been
convicted of dealing in narcotics during the past year?


Henri Sévérin Béland: There is no record of
any Japanese being prosecuted.


Robert James Manion: I should like to ask the minister a rather pertinent question; in fact, perhaps, somebody might call it impertinent. The statement is often made, in the press of a certain type at least, that the drug habit in this country is increasing -and I think I am right in stating that it is increasing, according to the number of prosecutions which the minister has men-
Supply-Public Health

tioned-by virtue of the fact that temperance or prohibition measures have been taken in different provinces of this Dominion. I presume that such men as Doctor Amyot, the ^deputy minister, and other able officers in this department, have opinions on the matter which they have expressed to the minister. I am sure that the committee will be pleased to have a statement from the minister on the subject.


Henri Sévérin Béland: My hon. friend is imposing a considerable task upon me. I am indeed not in a position to furnish any information in this regard. Whether the use of alcohol would tend to abate to any extent the illicit desire for drugs, it is not for me to say. My impression, however, is that it makes no difference.


Henry Herbert Stevens: The minister could
ascertain from the provincial returns whether there was a smaller percentage of prosecutions for the illicit use of drugs in British Columbia and in Montreal or Quebec than elsewhere. These two provinces are what are known commonly as " wet " territories, and if the prosecutions there were markedly less than elsewhere the suggestion would have some foundation, that the use of alcohol has a restrictive effect on the use of drugs.


Henri Sévérin Béland: I am afraid that if that were true, British Columbia would be amply justified in having indulged in the liquor trade, because the number of convictions in the matter of drugs is a good deal larger there than elsewhere. But I do not believe that the liquor habit and the drug habit have very much relation to each other. It is true that in British Columbia the liquor traffic is permitted under certain legislative regulations, and it is equally true that it is in that province that the largest number of convictions for the illicit use of drugs have taken place. But the large number of convictions against illicit traders in narcotics in British Columbia would, I should think, naturally result from the geographic situation of that province. I presume that there is a larger number of Chinamen in Vancouver and Victoria than in any other city in the Dominion, and the proximity of these places to the Orient would perhaps account for the greater extent of the trade.


Robert James Manion: I do not wish to be understood as making the statement that the increase in the use of drugs is due to any corresponding decrease in the use of

alcohol. I simply state that a portion of the press frequently makes that statement, and I thought in all seriousness that perhaps some of the officials of the department might have given a positive opinion on the matter. The minister, I think, did state that there was an increasing use of these drugs, which I take it include not only opium but morphine, cocaine and the various other habit-forming drugs, and possibly the number of prosecutions may be due to a stricter enforcement of the law. I may have misunderstood the minister, but I thought he said that it was the opinion of the department that the use of these drugs is on the increase. If that is the case-and the minister nods his head-would he be willing to give the opinion of some of his officers as to the cause of the increase? Or has any such opinion been expressed to him by the officers of the department?


Henri Sévérin Béland: I am unable to give any reasons for the apparent increase. As my hon. friend, who is conversant with medical matters, knows, it is very difficult to say whether the use of narcotics has really increased. Apparently it has, and this may foe due to the fact that the department has been very closely prosecuting the illicit traders. But we have no report in the department that assigns any reasons for the increase. Possibly, as in some other lines, the traders have found it very profitable to deal in these drugs, and the habit has spread among some of our compatriots, and is practised by more foreigners than in previous years. I can only say that it is most regrettable that the trade should have reached such proportions, and that is one reason why we shall require a little more money to bring to the enforcement of this act as much activity as possible.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I wish to bring to the attention of the minister a matter which I think is very important. The committee will have noted that in the number of prosecutions a very large percentage were aliens. I believe that a very considerable proportion of them were orientals. In British Columbia, where we realize, more than any other part of the country does, the connection between Canada and the Orient in the supplying of these drugs, and where we have been right up against the problem, so to speak, we have been asking that those found guilty and convicted in our courts shall wherever possible be de

Supply-Public Health
ported. Nothing is so feared by a criminal practising in Canada as deportation back to the land whence he came. That is true generally speaking. There is nothing that the Chinaman in particular dreads so much as deportation. If the Minister of the Interior (Mr. Stewart) were in his place I would address a few remarks to him, but I trust that my hon. friend (Mr. Beland) will renew his conferences with him on this point. One of the heaviest blows that could be struck at the traffic would be a vigorous campaign of deportation. As the law now stands it requires that those prosecuting shall notify the municipal clerk who in turn notifies the immigration authorities. I am not criticising the law, but it does strike me that the Department of Health could, as it were, short circuit this red tape by having the representations made direct to the Immigration Department, who could actively take the matter up. As matters stand now, the Immigration Department does not act until the charge is laid by the municipal authority, whereas, if the Health Department, cooperating with the Immigration Department, were to notify immediately a prosecution was made, then the immigration authorities could follow the matter up. And if the Government would instruct the immigration authorities to take vigorous action it would go a long way towards remedying the evil.
Another matter I wish to refer to is the spread of the drug habit. From our experiences and careful investigations made, I think that the chief cause lies in the profit which is made by unscrupulous- I was going to say fiendish-traffickers. They are the root of this business, and it is encouraging to see the efforts made by the department of my hon. friend to prosecute these traffickers. But I think another step could be taken with pronounced effect. I have some papers on this point, but they are not under my hand at the moment. As, however, the minister will no doubt have full information in his department, what I say will be quite intelligible to him. Nearly all the civilized nations of the world, realizing that this traffic is getting a firmer grip upon their peoples, have entered into an international convention to restrict the traffic. As I understand it, the main source of supply for opium is the Orient, and for the derivatives of opium-


Henri Sévérin Béland: Cocaine and morphine.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Those come chiefly from Germany, although to a certain extent from France also.


Henri Sévérin Béland: That is right.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Here we have the two major sources of supply. I think Canada might very well initiate steps to prevent the exports of drugs generally from those countries to Canada except under strict regulations. Germany has been a serious offender in this respect. I do not know that the government of Germany wilfully permits the export of these drugs, but at the same time she has been neglectful in the matter, and I think we might very properly make strong representations not only to Germany but to all the other countries which participated in this international convention, to control the export of these drugs as effectively as possible. As a matter of fact, I think the minister will agree with me when I say that if we could control the manufacture and export of these drugs we would go a long way towards solving the problem. India and China are undoubtedly sources of supply. In the old Chinese government at Pekin we had a very sympathetic ally in the control of opium exports, but I am afraid that what we might call the de facto government at Canton is not attempting to control these exports at all so far as we can learn. Very strong efforts ought to be made not only by Canada but by the other signatories to the convention to curtail, and, if possible, prevent the production and export of drugs.


Robert James Manion: Before the minister replies to the remarks of my hon. friend from Centre Vancouver (Mr. Stevens), may I add a word or two? Perhaps not having the papers under his hand my hon. friend has expressed his opinions a little differently from what he really wished to do, because after all, as the minister well knows, morphine particularly, as well as cocaine to a lesser extent, are very useful drugs if properly handled.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Yes.


Robert James Manion: Perhaps there is no drug more useful, generally speaking, than opium and its derivatives, and I presume that my hon. friend really suggests the prohibition of illegitimate exportation-


Henry Herbert Stevens: Undoubtedly.


Robert James Manion: -because the prohibition of legitimate exportation of drugs from those countries might interfere very ma-

As I understood him, the danger really comes from the smuggling of these drugs into Canada, and if some method were adopted which, instead of prohibiting, would secure strict registration of such exportations to our country, these records could be given to our customs officers, who could pass them on to the officers of my hon. friend's department, and the same result would be achieved. In regard to the suggestion made by the hon. gentleman as to the deportation of peddlers of these drugs, I think it is very good.


Henri Sévérin Béland: The committee will have an idea of how the legitimate trade in drugs has decreased in this country when I quote the figures for cocaine importations for 1919, 1920 and 1921. In 1919 we imported 12,000 ounces; in 1920, 6,900 ounces; in 1921, only 3,300 ounces. So in the last three years the legitimate importations have dropped from 12,000 ounces to 3,000 ounces. The same applies to morphine and to gum opium. One reason why these drugs are being absorbed in larger quantities is no doubt because through illicit trading they are sold a good deal cheaper. During the last three or four years the rigid enforcement of the law has prevented drug addicts from buying these narcotics so easily as they used to, and as illicit traders were in a position to offer the drugs at a cheaper price, the committee will readily understand that a much larger consumption has taken place.
I agree largely with what my hon. friend from Centre Vancouver (Mr. Stevens) has said about deportation. It can be readily understood that if Chinamen who indulge in the illicit trade in narcotics, especially opium, were deported, others would be deterred from taking a similar risk, and the trading would be very much restricted. That is a matter for the special consideration of the Minister of the Interior and also of the Government generally.
The control of export from the country of origin is perhaps a more serious matter. It would be possible for the signatories to the convention entered into in 1912, and ratified by Canada in 1919, to enter into negotiations with the view of ascertaining the exact quantity of drugs exported from every country. That would be perhaps a very useful step to take.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I believe the convention contains a provision for exactly that course to be pursued, and what I am urging is
that the Government should take advantage of it.


Henri Sévérin Béland: Every country which is a party to that international convention undoubtedly would be ready to supply this Government with figures of the exact export trade in all these narcotics. But my hon. friend will realize also that there exists in those countries an export trade which is outside the law.


Hugh Guthrie: The minister gave the
total number of convictions as 835. Does that cover all convictions in Canada, not only those that have taken place through the efforts of the Department of Health, but through the ordinary channels of the enforcement of criminal law?


Henri Sévérin Béland: No. The total number of convictions is 1,765, which includes provincial and municipal prosecutions followed by conviction. The total number of convictions secured through federal prosecution is 835.


Hugh Guthrie: The total number of convictions, including those which have resulted through the ordinary channels of criminal prosecution, is 1,765. It is most significant that of the 835 convictions, no less than 634 are convictions of Chinese residing in Canada. So the total number of convictions of citizens of all other nationalities, Canadians and others, is only 201. This would lead one to conclude that this illicit traffic in drugs is, to the extent of at least sixty or sixty-six per cent, due to the presence in this country of a substantial Chinese population. I was inclined to think that during the past five years there had been a very large increase in the number of convictions that had taken place in Canada on account of the traffic in illicit drugs. When I was in the Department of Justice the matter was brought to my attention on more than one occasion, and though I cannot give the figures from memory now, I am inclined to think the increase in the number of convictions in the last five years has been very, very rapid. From an examination of the figures given us to-night, I think we may fairly assume that a very large part of that illicit traffic is conducted by people whose presence in this country is no great asset, in my humble opinion. I sincerely trust that the department will continue its good work. It is doing an excellent work in this respect, as are also the mounted police and the provincial police, but I am just a little bit afraid from what I read in the papers

Supply-Public Health
published in the United States, particularly in New York, that the traffic is on the increase and not on the decrease, both in Canada and the United States at the present time.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Quarantine-salaries and contingencies of organized districts ; Public Health and other districts ; Tracadie and D'Arcy Island lazarettoes; Public Health Act, $273,500.
Robert James Manion: Would the minister give a brief explanation of how this money is expended?


Henri Sévérin Béland: We have in Canada eight quarantine stations: Halifax, Louisburg, North Sydney, Charlottetown, St. John, Chatham, Grosse Isle and Victoria. The two lazarettoes are, one at Tracadie, N.B., and the other at D'Arcy island, B.C. By far the most important quarantine station is that of Grosse Isle. Before dealing with that, I might give the committee the number of lepers in Canada. At Tracadie there are 14, and at D'Arcy island 5.


Murray MacLaren: Did the fourteen cases of leprosy at Tracadie originate in New Brunswick.


Henri Sévérin Béland: No, not all of them.
They come, I presume, from all over eastern Canada. Last year we had one case from Toronto, and two years ago two cases from Regina and Swift Current.


James Dew Chaplin: What were their nationalities?


Murray MacLaren: As the minister
knows, in the area about Tracadie there have been cases of leprosy developing for the last one hundred years. Is there any diminution in the number of cases from New Brunswick? I take it from the figures that there has been some diminution in the number of cases during the last twenty-five years.


Henri Sévérin Béland: While that information
is being looked up, answering my hon. friend from Lincoln, most of the leprosy cases, if not all, are Scandinavians.


Mr. GOULD:: There is a decrease of
$2,440 in this item. That seems to be drawing the line pretty fine. We expect there will be an immigration policy this year, and some of the moneys at least in connection with immigration will have to be expended under this item. I wonder if the minister could explain just how the conclusion was arrived at that $2,440 should be the amount deducted from last year's estimate?


Henri Sévérin Béland: The decrease is very
small indeed, and at the present moment I am not in a position to say how it was arrived at. It is a trifling matter. I suppose that a few attendants that are not considered absolutely necessary are going to be dispensed with.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Immigration Medical Inspection, $50,000.
Murray MacLaren: Is the minister now in a position to answer my question of a few minutes ago?


Henri Sévérin Béland: Yes. In 1897 we had 32 patients; in 1910, 22 patients; and in 1922, only 14 patients. My hon. friend will see that the number is decreasing.


Murray MacLaren: I might fairly refer to the peculiarly fortunate conditions under which these cases of leprosy have been cared for and attended to during many years. Nearly all the cases arising in New Brunswick have been among the French Canadians, and they are cared for by a community of nuns. It is particularly satisfactory that during this long period these men have been maintained in such comfortable circumstances, and under such careful and faithful attendants.


Robert King Anderson: At what ports is
medical inspection carried out?


Henri Sévérin Béland: Medical inspection is
being carried out in different ports, the most important by far being that of Quebec. Then come the ports of Montreal, St. John, North Sydney, Halifax, Vancouver, Victoria, Prince Rupert and Portland. As to the inspection that has taken place during the year which ended March 31, 1922, the number of examinations is as follows: Quebec, 41,256; St. John, 8,964; Halifax, 7,400; Montreal, 797; North Sydney, including Sydney, 452; Vancouver, 1,628; Victoria, 1,538.


Oliver Robert Gould: I would ask the minister if this vote is to cover expenses connected with immigrants who may have contracted diseases on board ship?


Henri Sévérin Béland: That is right.


Oliver Robert Gould: I ask the question because
there was a person from my own electoral district who was detained on Partridge island and who, in consequence of being so
Supply-Public Health

detained, was unable to reach home in time to get in a fair amount of crop, or at any rate such as he deemed necessary. It developed that he was not suffering from any contagious disease and I wondered what the attitude of the authorities was in a case of that nature?


Henri Sévérin Béland: Do I understand my hon. friend to say the man was detained at the quarantine station on Partridge island?


Oliver Robert Gould: Yes.


Henri Sévérin Béland: Well, that is the course followed, and it is proper. Sufferers from contagious disease are detained there for a certain period, and the contacts also, until they are entirely cured and for a certain number of days thereafter. Th'at is in accordance with a regulation of the department in order that the infected persons may not carry contagion elsewhere.


Oliver Robert Gould: The man to whom I refer developed no contagious disease but was detained on Partridge island for weeks. In consequence he did not get as large an area of land under crop as he had intended or desired.


Henri Sévérin Béland: He must have been in contact with some contagious disease on board ship and was therefore held under observation for what we call the period of incubation.


Mr. IRVINE:: I would like to ask the minister if an immigrant coming across and refusing to be vaccinated is kept in quarantine?


Henri Sévérin Béland: Yes, he will be kept in quarantine if he refuses to be vaccinated.


William Irvine: Is there any difference in that regard between a person travelling first class and a person travelling third class?


Henri Sévérin Béland: No there is no "difference.


Robert King Anderson: Is there any arrangement between Canada and the United States as to immigrants coming via the latter country?


Henri Sévérin Béland: My hon. friend doubtless refers to transatlantic travel. We have an arrangement with the medical inspec-' tors of the Medical Inspection Department of the United States for the examination of immigrants who are destined for Canada, and most of the time, I think, we have a representative at New York. We have no regular medical inspection between

the United States and Canada, I mean for those travellers or immigrants, who come from the former country and are recognized as American citizens; because we take it for granted that having been admitted by the United States inspectors after inspection, the conditions would be such as to entitle them to admission into Canada. The only inspection, as my hon. friend is doubtless aware is the civil inspection, and in case of doubt the persons would be stopped at the border, or else turned over to our medical inspectors either in Montreal or Toronto.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Venerea:! Diseases, $200,000.
Robert Gardiner: Will the minister give us some information as to what action the Department of Health is taking in regard to this item?


Henri Sévérin Béland: For a number of years an appropriation of $200,000 has been voted for the combatting of venereal diseases throughout Canada, which campaign has been carried on in co-operation with the provinces. The idea has been to leave the matter almost entirely with each provincial government to organize its own campaign, this amount to be divided amongst the different provinces pro rata to their population. The campaign is now well under way. It has been organized and carried on in all the provinces, with the exception of Prince Edward Island, which has not availed itself of the provisions of the grant. The whole amount has been expended, with the exception of $4,686. I think the work has been carried on very effectively.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
[Stage Direction]
Labour-unemployment relief, $100,000.
Henry Herbert Stevens: I want to thank the hon. minister for his courtesy in holding this over when I was absent the other day. I understand this item was originally voted by Parliament as supplementary to the grant for the enforcement of the statute, chapter 21 of the Employment Offices Coordination Act, because of there being a number of offices, in addition to the joint offices, that were solely under the control of the Dominion Federal Labour Department, but that, as time progressed and the co-ordination was brought about, this vote would1 become unnecessary. I understand there has been a reduction of some 26 offices, and it appears to me that, with this reduction, and with the more efficient

Supply-Labour
co-ordination of the provincial and dominion work under this act, for which another vote has been passed, this $100,000 would scarcely be necessary this year.


Hon. JAMES MURDOCK (Minister of Labour) :: If my hon. friend will look at another item authorized by statute, he will find on the same page,"Organization and coordination employment offices, $150,000." That amount is fixed by statute. The hon. member from Centre Vancouver (Mr. Stevens) will probably recall the' fact that the other day we passed in the supplementary estimates $400,000 for the last fiscal year on account of unemployment relief, or a total of $500,000, made up of the $100,000 voted last year, and two Governor General's warrants of $200,000 each. In addition to the $100,000 the committee is being asked to vote for this fiscal year, we estimate that at the present moment we are in debt about $1,260,000, or considerably over a million. I am not in a position to give the exact figures, although within the next few days we will try and estimate those figures as accurately as possible, for the purpose of presenting them in the Supplementary Estimates.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I am not objecting to the item for unemployment relief, but the item in the estimates is to supplement the amount provided by statute. I am informed that this was for the purpose of maintaining certain offices, in addition to labour offices, jointly maintained by the provinces and the Dominion. If it is for unemployment, let us put it under unemployment, and eliminate this reference to the Co-ordination Act altogether. I do not want to labour the point or to embarrass the minister.


James Murdock: The hon. member has the wrong item. He is speaking of No. 269, and we are dealing with 273. We passed No. 269 on the 21st April.


Henry Herbert Stevens: I was under the impression we were at 269-employment offices- and it was that point I wished to bring up. I recall the item now. It was agreed that under this general item we could bring up various questions. I would bring my hon. friend back to No. 269, and suggest that this provision for maintaining special offices, outside of those under the Co-ordination Act, should, at least, be eliminated as soon as possible. I will not say that it should be eliminated
from these estimates, but steps should be taken to eliminate it, and bring it under the Co-ordination Act.


James Murdock: I agree with the hon. member entirely. Steps have been taken in that direction to the extent, I think, that in all of the joint offices that we have now in any province we are not paying any more than 50 per cent of the cost of such employment offices.


Henry Herbert Stevens: How many extra offices are there outside of those under the Coordination Act?


James Murdock: I think there are only two, one in Moncton, New Brunswick, and one in Chatham, New Brunswick, but even at that we are on a fifty-fifty basis.


William Irvine: Can the minister tell me if the $1,200,000 that we are in debt was due to the unemployment relief given last year?


James Murdock: It was on account of the provisions contained in P.C. order 191, but a great deal of it, especially in Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta and British Colombia, will be on account of the excess cost of winter construction of public works, the bills for which have not yet come through from the municipalities and the provinces to the federal government, and the figures that I gave on that account are simply estimated as accurately as we can do it at the present moment.


William Irvine: If unemployment cost $1,200,000 last year, plus the $500,000, which has been given, how does the minister expect to be able to get through this spring with $100,000?


James Murdock: If conditions next
winter prove anything like the conditions of unemployment during the past winter, we could not possibly get through with that amount at all, but it is reasonable to be optimistic, and to hope that, before another year rolls around, conditions will have improved materially, and that all men in Canada who desire work and are willing to work can find it.

all the goodwill in the world, we shall have to hold this item up for a while. This question would involve some discussion, and I should be glad if the minister would hold it over to some other day and take up some other items, on which, perhaps, less information would be required.


Mr. STEWART (Argenteuil) :: I can give the hon. member all the information.


Henry Herbert Stevens: As a matter of fact, the leader of the Opposition (Mr. Meighen) had no idea that this item was coming on to-night, and I think he would like to be present when it is being discussed. It is a very important item. We might take up any of the ordinary items the minister has and slide them through.

[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Expenses under the Naturalization Act, $50,000.
Henry Elvins Spencer: What is the reason for
this increase?


Hugh Guthrie: The reason is that there are probably more investigations under the Naturalization Act now than there were during the past couple of years. During the war the applications accumulated, and I believe that certificates are being granted more freely now.


Mr. MACKENZIE KING:: That is practically the explanation.


Richard Burpee Hanson: There are quite a number of applications in my part of the country that should be investigated. I know that in certain parts of New Brunswick people are applying for naturalization on grounds that really do not commend themselves to reason.


Arthur Bliss Copp: I cannot give the details
as to the different localities. Investigations are being held throughout Canada. In 1915 the Royal Northwest Mounted Police investigated 16 applications; in 1917, 18; in 1918, 199; in 1919, 5,437; in 1920, 6,258; in 1921, 7,424; and in 1922, from January 1 to March 31, 1,121.


Richard Burpee Hanson: These investigations are carried on chiefly by the Mounted Police?


Arthur Bliss Copp: Entirely so.

William Irvine: Does the Business Profits Tax bring in as much as it costs to administer it?


William Stevens Fielding: I regret I cannot give that information offhand. It is not available to-night.


Hugh Guthrie: Are you sure we shall need the money this year? The Budget has not been brought down yet.


William Stevens Fielding: I think we shall need it on the general principle that what we have we hold.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: I see that there is $4,000 for a commissioner who may be appointed without reference to the Civil Service Act. What is the idea?

William Stevens Fielding: This is a repetition of a vote adopted last year by the late government. Mr. Breadner was in the department at $6,000. His salary has been increased to $10,000. He is in charge of the Income Tax branch of the department.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: I am not so much concerned about this particular item, but I was wondering whether it was establishing a precedent.


William Stevens Fielding: If it be a precedent it was established last year.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: I do not feel a bit
easy about continuing precedents set last year.


William Stevens Fielding: Well, sometimes it is inconvenient to make changes.


Hugh Guthrie: The Minister of Finance has himself set one this year.


Mr. WARD:: How much does it cost to collect the income tax?


William Stevens Fielding: I cannot give the information now, but I have no objection to allowing the item to stand. If my hon. friend is very anxious to be informed on the point I can get the information and submit to him later.


William John Ward: It is an important question. We have been told on many occasions that it costs more to administer the act than we receive in returns. If that statement is not true, then it ought to be corrected in the House. '


William Stevens Fielding: Having regard to the vast sum collected, I think it will be found that the expense incurred in the collection is a reasonable one. However, if the hon. gentleman desires more definite information I will give it to him later.

Thomas Wakem Caldwell: It seems that every department has a purchasing agent, and there is besides a general purchasing commission. What is the need for an agent in each department?


William Lyon Mackenzie King: This commission was appointed toy the late government.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: That does not make it unassailable.


An hon. MEMBER:: "What we have we hold."


William Lyon Mackenzie King: Yes, I presume we are acting on that theory. I do not think all the departments have purchasing agents.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: I believe that all have.


William Lyon Mackenzie King: Only two or three.	,

Has the Government given any consideration as to whether some assistance should be given to some of these other lines in lieu of the subsidy that will not be earned by the Reid-Newfoundland Company now that it is held up?

Thomas Wakem Caldwell: Before this item passes I would like to ask a question: I
2028	COMMONS
Supply-Trade and Commerce
realize that possibly I am not in order in bringing forward such a matter on this item, but the fact is that the Pension Committee, of which I am a member, sits afternoons and evenings when the House is in session, and I may not be here when the items referred to by my hon. friend from Bow River (Mr. Garland) are taken up. I would like to ask the minister if the Government has any intention of subsidizing a line of steamers between St. John, N.B., and Cuba, at any future time, and I want to state my reasons for asking the question. Last year I took up with the government the matter of seeing if some arrangement could not be made to facilitate the shipping of potatoes to Cuba, due to the fact that the United States tariff on potatoes, and other farm produce going to that country, is such that the market there is practically closed to us. The farmers of New Brunswick to-day are realizing only 40 cents a barrel for their potatoes, whereas the cost to them of raising those potatoes is $2 a barrel. On the average that is what it cost them to produce potatoes last year. Now, when the farmer is only getting 40 cents a barrel it means that he realizes but $120 for a car after the payment of freight, whereas the expense of landing these potatoes in Cuba is $550 a car, which is rather a hard situation for the farmers, as every hon. member must admit. These potatoes are shipped from St. John by boat, and I would like to know whether the Government would not consider the desirability of providing better facilities for handling them at the port of St. John, and of granting a subsidy to a line of steamers whereby we might get our potatoes to market at a reduced rate and in that way, so to speak, lessen the cost of production. I would like the Government to consider what might be done to meet the existing situation. It was proposed last year that the Government Merchant Marine should put on a line of steamers between St. John and Cuba, but it would be necessary that the vessels should be fitted up in such a way that potatoes could be carried without injury. The necessity of this arises from the fact that the holds of the ships are so arranged that when loaded with potatoes the sacks in the lower tier get crushed by the sacks in the tier above. The facilities between decks should be such that no injury would result from this cause. I got the Dominion Merchant Marine to handle shipments on their boats in 1920, but when landed in Cuba some were in very 
bad condition due to the fact that the potatoes in the top tiers had crushed those in the lower tiers so badly that they were not marketable. I took the matter up last year with the Department of Marine and they told me the reason they would not be able to meet our wishes was because there were not enough potatoes offering at the port of St. John to enable such cargoes to be carried at a profit. Well, the reason for that is that our potatoes were going via Boston where there are better facilities for handling them than at the port of St. John. The Minister of Public Works agreed this session, as the result of a resolution I introduced into the House to endeavour to provide export facilities at the port of St. John. When that has been attended to we shall need some adequate means of transporting our potatoes to Cuba so that they may be landed there at a reduced rate of freight and without injury, thus enabling our farmers to realize a larger amount than they at present receive.


James Alexander Robb: If my hon. friend will give me a memorandum on the subject I shall be pleased to take the matter up with the department.


William Irvine: I was under the impression that these subsidies were for mail carrying steamers alone; is that correct?


James Alexander Robb: No.


William Irvine: I cannot see the connection between potatoes and mail?


James Alexander Robb: I may say to my hon. friend that we have an arrangement with these different lines that are subsidized that they shall carry the mails free.


An Hon. MEMBER:: Not all.


James Alexander Robb: There may be some exceptions but as a general rule where these vessels go to points to which the mails are not otherwise carried, we have an arrangement whereby they will carry the mails free.


Lewis Herbert Martell: Has the minister any control over the freight rates charged by boats that receive government subsidies. I have had several complaints from farmers in the county of Hants stating that they are charged exorbitant freight rates, particularly on potatoes and turnips, by the Royal Mail Packet Company, which plies between Halifax and the West Indies.


James Alexander Robb: The rates charged are subject to the approval of the minister. If

Supply-Trade and Commerce
my hon. friend will send me any complaints he has received we will take the matter up with the company and ascertain whether they are charging any rates other than those agreed upon.


Lewis Herbert Martell: I sent some complaints to the minister yesterday, and they are still coming in.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Miscou and Shippegan Islands and Mainland, Steam service between, $3,300.
Richard Burpee Hanson: That seems to be a new item. I am not objecting at all, because 1 think the people who live on these islands are entitled to a great deal of consideration. These islands are on the Baie des Chaleurs and rather isolated. Could the minister tell us who is operating the steamships?


James Alexander Robb: As I stated a few moments ago, I sent the details back to the deputy for some further information. I am not able to give an answer now, but will give it later on.


Henry Herbert Stevens: The hon. minister could give the information on items 170 and 171.	.


James Alexander Robb: I could give it any time.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I am not objecting.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Newcastle, Neguac and Escuminac, calling at intermediate points on the Miramichi river and bay, steam service between, $5,000.
Richard Burpee Hanson: There is an increase in this item. This service is on the north shore of the Miramichi, below Newcastle, away from the line of railway, and I think the subsidy is a very fair one. We might have some explanation later on as to the increase. I have not understood that the service was poor, or that any improvement was required. Therefore, we should have some explanation.


James Alexander Robb: The president of the company, Mr. Snowball, I think, came to me and showed me the balance sheets of last year and the year previous, which showed a loss, and he stated that unless they got an increase they would have to discontinue. He wanted more than we allowed, but he consented to go on.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Mulgrave, Arichat and Petit de Grat, steam service between, $10,000.
Thomas Wakem Caldwell: There are three services out of Mulgrave. Does this money
go to the one steamship company for putting on one service?


William Stevens Fielding: Mulgrave is a terminal point, and the steamers from that point go to different districts.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: Is it the one steamship company?


James Alexander Robb: No, a different service.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Quebec, Natashquan and Harrington, and Bras d'Or and other ports on the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, steam service between, $85,000.
Hugh Guthrie: We would like some information on this?


James Alexander Robb: Thi6 is a considerable increase. The service will extend 300 miles further east, giving a service to Canadian ports, and bringing back to Canadian ports business that now goes to Newfoundland.


William Irvine: Are any of the Canadian Merchant Marine vessels employed on this service?


James Alexander Robb: No.


Hugh Guthrie: What service are we going to get? What ships are employed? This is an enormous increase, from $50,000 to $85,000.


James Alexander Robb: We are putting on new ships and a new service, giving an increased service over that of last year, between Harrington and the other points.


Hugh Guthrie: Will the hon. minister allow it to stand?


James Alexander Robb: Yes.
Item stands.
St. Catherine's Bay and Tadoussac, winter steam service between, $2,000.


Richard Burpee Hanson: What about the winter service at that point?


James Alexander Robb: This is a new service. These people are completely isolated during the winter, so that they have no way of getting the mail sent in.


Richard Burpee Hanson: How are they going to do it?


James Alexander Robb: The mails are carried by dog trains down to a certain point, and there will be a ferry service across from St. Catherine to Tadoussac.


Hugh Guthrie: What is the meaning of "winter steam service"?
2030	COMMONS
Supply-Trade and Commerce


James Alexander Robb: It means that the service
will apply only in the winter time, when the mails cannot get in otherwise. In the season of navigation, there is another service.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
St. John and St. Andrews, N.B., calling at intermediate points, steam service between, $4,000.
Richard Burpee Hanson: This is a service that
cannot be justified on the ground that it carries mail. The boat is a local freight boat owned by a firm at Black harbour, and travelling between St. John and St. Andrews. I do not want to be taken as opposing this appropriation; but I should like to know the justification for the subsidy, because this boat does not carry a single mail bag.


James Alexander Robb: If my hon. friend desires
that the item stand, we shall allow it to stand for further information.


Richard Burpee Hanson: Let us have the information later on. I would not ask that the item stand.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
St. John and Digby, steam service between, $15,000.
Richard Burpee Hanson: This is a Canadian
Pacific service, which is very well patronized. The boat is a good one, which carries a large tourist traffic in the summer. What is the justification for the apparently large increase? I do not see any necessity for an increase on this service which has been established for many years. This boat carries also a considerable quantity of freight.


James Alexander Robb: I will allow this item to
stand if my hon. friend so desires. My recollection is that this is an increased service.


Richard Burpee Hanson: There is a daily service now. Is the company putting on two trips a day?


James Alexander Robb: Perhaps the item had
better stand until I have the information.
Item stands.
St. Stephen, Deer Island, and Campobello, steam service between, $2,000.


Richard Burpee Hanson: This is a very inadequate service; in fact, it is not a steam service at all. The boat is a gasoline one. Possibly there have been applications for an improved service. In the winter time the boat is not fit for passenger service.


James Alexander Robb: There may have been applications for an increased service. Many applications have been made for increased services and increased subsidies. We propose to make a thorough review during the coming season and perhaps, we shall correct the services, increasing some and reducing others.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: This service could be very well increased.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Sydney and Whycocomagh, steam service between, $7,000.
Richard Burpee Hanson: This appropriation is nearly doubled. We ought to have some explanation.


James Alexander Robb: My recollection is that this boat showed very bad earnings during the last two years, and that the company were about to discontinue the service altogether, a service which was necessary for the people of this district. Otherwise, they would have no way of getting their produce to market.


Hugh Guthrie: Will the minister let this stand?


James Alexander Robb: I will.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: The minister tells
us that they threathened to discontinue the service. Is this let by contract? Has the minister any guarantee of continuity of service where a subsidy is granted?


James Alexander Robb: These services are voted each year, and sometimes we give these companies contracts covering a term of years. But when they come forward with a statement showing that they are making great losses, it is often cheaper to cancel a contract than to attempt to make them carry out a contract when they are unable to do it.


Thomas Wakem Caldwell: I am finding no fault with the increase of the subsidy, if that is found necessary on account of their producing a statement of their earnings. Has the department any guarantee of continuity of service for a definite time? When liberal subsidies are granted, there should be more than a yearly contract.


James Alexander Robb: There are in many cases. There are but few defaults.


Hugh Guthrie: I should like this to stand for further information.

Supply-Trade and Commerce


Daniel Duncan McKenzie: I am able to give the committee any quantity of information about this service, which must be about a hundred years old. The boat is a good many years old; but the company are getting a new steel boat this year, and that is the cause of the increase. The new boat is costing them something like $40,000, whereas the old boat was not so expensive. The old boat was getting a subsidy of only $4,000. The distance between Whycoco-magh and Sydney is eighty miles. The boat is on the road all the time, going one day and coming back the next, going back and forth continuously, making calls all the way along the Bras d'Or lake. There is no railroad on that side of the island, and this boat answers the purpose. There are many wharves on the lake, and the boat carries freight and passengers back and forth. We could not get along without the service.


Hugh Guthrie: The minister stated
that he had statements from the company showing that they were losing money. I think the committee ought to have those statements in order to see how the matter stands. The minister might let this item stand over until he can furnish the committee with the statements.


Daniel Duncan McKenzie: I do not see why this item should stand any more than any other item. If the hon. member for South Wellington (Mr. Guthrie) thinks that, because this service is in my constituency, he is doing a great thing by holding over this estimate, we might stay here for a while and get the information. This item has been passed yearly for the last twenty years since I came to this House, and I never before heard a request that it should stand over. There should be no trouble in getting these statements showing that they were losing money, because I was present in the office when the captain of the boat and the president of the company made them to the minister. If the hon. gentleman thinks he is doing a great service to his country by stopping this item simply because the service is in my riding, I suppose he can do that; but it is a long lane that has no turning.


Hugh Guthrie: My hon. friend is assuming a great deal. He says that we are stopping an item 'because it refers to a service in his riding. I do not think that anyone knew, when the request was made, that the matter referred to my hon. friend's riding. Certainly I did not know. But
here is an increase from $4,000 to $7,000. The minister says he has explanations which he will bring forward. We simply ask that the item stand, entirely apart from the fact that it refers to the riding of the Solicitor General. The hon. gentleman need not get angry.


Daniel Duncan McKenzie: I am not angry; there is no reason why I should be. Only protests or arguments from a gentleman would make me angry.


Edward Joseph Garland: The committee is entitled to the information; I think the item should stand.


Henry Herbert Stevens: We have been doing very nicely and we have asked that just four items out of some forty be allowed to stand. I do not think the request is unreasonable.


Mr. LAPOINTE:: The temper of the committee is getting bad.


Henry Herbert Stevens: We have not made the request for the purpose of humiliating my hon. friend (Mr. McKenzie), who is beyond that, anyway.
Item stands.
Sydney and Bras d'Or Lake ports and ports on the east and west coasts of Cape Breton, steam service between, $14,000.


Richard Burpee Hanson: How many services are there in connection with this item?


James Alexander Robb: There are quite a number of them; different services around points where there is no railway communication.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
To provide for a Canadian Exhibition in France, $50,000.
Henry Herbert Stevens: What are the particulars?


James Alexander Robb: Last year Senator Beaubien arranged with France that in consideration of Canada giving free transportation to their products over our railways France would give in return free transportation and certain other concessions to an exhibit of Canadian products throughout that country. To take advantage of that arrangement it is well that we should take steps now, while the same government are in office in France, and 'before they forget the matter. We propose to send an exhibit of Canadian agricultural and industrial products to France.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Personally, I have no
desire to delay the vote at all. In fact I am wholly in favour of it, and I state
2032	COMMONS
Supply-Trade and Commerce
frankly that I think it will be of great benefit to those Canadians who are interested in the French market. I think that an exhibition of a Canadian train in France would be of great advantage to us. We should do all we can to promote trade between the two countries, and I heartily endorse the vote. I know a good deal about it and I am entirely in favour of the scheme.


Hugh Guthrie: How is the $50,000
arrived at?


James Alexander Robb: It is purely an estimate.
The negotiations with France were carried out by Senator Beaubien. It may require more than $50,000 but we are putting in this item in the hope that we shall receive some assistance from the Canadian Manufacturers Association.


William Irvine: I understand that France imports very little farm produce from any country. What are her agricultural imports from Canada?


James Alexander Robb: We can obtain that information, but my hon. friend is wrong. France has bought considerable amounts of Canadian products, and we hope to be able to increase the sales. If France were buying all the products we have to sell, it would be unnecessary, of course, to send an exhibit there and advertise our products. It is because we wish to increase Canadian business in that market, particularly our agricultural products, that we are taking this matter up.


Henry Herbert Stevens: Agricultural products, or implements?


James Alexander Robb: Both; I hope my hon. friend does not object to our selling agricultural implements in France.


William Irvine: It is because I doubt the
existence of that market that I ask the question.


James Alexander Robb: There are other business
men in Canada who hold a different opinion from my hon. friend.


Edward Joseph Garland: Will the Government get some assistance from the Canadian Manufacturers Association?


James Alexander Robb: We hope they will contribute in part to the expenses. We will arrange for the train and for a suitable building in which to display our products. We may possibly also arrange for a permanent exhibition there, and those who are interested may contribute by supplying products.


William Irvine: It seems rather strange
that we should put a tariff on French goods and France impose one against us in order to keep out trade, and then we should turn round and spend $50,000 in order to get trade in.


James Alexander Robb: It is not the policy of this
Government to keep trade out or to discourage it.


Mr. SHAW:: Is the minister considering a mutual arrangement with France for a reduction in the tariff? The money would be better spent in that way than, perhaps, under this item.


James Alexander Robb: If my hon. friend will
have patience possibly some day we will give the information he desires.


Hugh Guthrie: I understood that
France imported very few agricultural products; in fact, my information was that the French law prohibited their importation. At the present time I am informed that France produces all the agricultural commodities she requires. I understood, though, that there is a chance of doing business there in manufactured goods. It is probably more particularly for that purpose that this exhibition is to be held. I am not opposing the grant, but I was curious to know how this $50,000 was made up-whether the exhibitors were charged a certain amount and the Government was contributing the balance; and also whether agricultural products are to be put on exhibition as well as manufactured goods.


James Alexander Robb: The item was arrived at, as already explained, purely by estimate. We propose to have an exhibition of agricultural products, minerals, manufactured goods-in fact, everything Canada produces that we think can be sold in France. My hon. friends must keep in mind that France is one of the great tourist countries of the world, and therefore the exhibits Canada shows will be seen by the people of other nations.


[Stage Direction]
Item agreed to.
Progress reported.

[Stage Direction]
Mr. MACKENZIE KING moved the adjournment of the House.
Hugh Guthrie: May I inquire whether my hon. friend has considered the question of sitting on Saturdays? A number of

Business of the House
members on both sides of the House have been discussing it during the last day or two, and I 'think myself that the time has come when we should deal with it. I should also like to know the business for Monday.


William Lyon Mackenzie King: I assume from my hon. friend's remarks that he hopes the Government will do everything in its power to expedite the work, so as to bring the session to a close as soon as possible. Certainly the Government has under consideration what may be possible towards that end. The coming week the House does not sit on Wednesday and Thursday. Some suggestion was made by an hon. member two or three days ago that we might sit on Saturdays, but there seemed to be considerable difference of opinion at the time, and for the Saturday of next week the suggestion did not seem to meet with general approval. The Government would be only too glad to sit on Saturdays if that course were generally approved by the House.


Hugh Guthrie: The House will sit on Friday?


William Lyon Mackenzie King: Yes; and if between now and Tuesday it should appear that there is a general sentiment in favour of sitting on Saturday I am sure the Government will be glad to meet the wishes of hon. members in that regard. After the following Wednesday we will resume sittings in the evening. If there is any sentiment in favour of sitting on Saturdays we shall be glad to consider the advisability of doing so.


Richard Burpee Hanson: I hope the Government will not sit next Saturday. After that date I should have no objection.


William Lyon Mackenzie King: We will be all ready to sit next Saturday if there is any agreement to do so.


Edward Joseph Garland: May we take it that the custom established by the Government at the commencement of the session of rising at eleven o'clock is not to be abandoned?


William Lyon Mackenzie King: Oh, no, I do not think it will be abandoned. If there is a disposition on the part of members to get through the balance of the work of the session by not speaking at too great length, I do not see why we should not adjourn at eleven o'clock as usual; but if for any reason there is a tendency to delay matters unduly, the Government will probably feel justified in continuing the sittings a little later than eleven o'clock to get through a good day's work. When we can get through reasonably by eleven o'clock, we shall be glad to do so. [DOT]


Edward Joseph Garland: I am asking the question because several members leave towards eleven o'clock under the impression that the House will rise at that hour, but lately we have been sitting until twelve o'clock or later.


William Lyon Mackenzie King: As to the business for Monday, we will take what remains of naval and militia estimates, mounted police, soldiers' land settlement, adjustment of war claims, fisheries, and any other estimates on the list.
