Simpson, is far reach n; and will deprive the public schools of a large share of revenue. It is unforunate -that in tthis province where Protestants and Catholics live and work together in harmony_ there should be a division in educational n1a.tt;ers.

WILU JJLIUUU SUILUUI system as we have it in Ontario does not in any way interfere with re- ligious beliefs. A public school system we must have_ and every child, regardless of race, color ox creed is emtinfled to all the privileg-.s ` of the public school. | By the British North American Act; of 1863, and 21. zfurlzller Act, in 1867, certain concesslous were given to the Roman Ca?L'hoIics in the mar.- ter of education, which were accept- nrl, WA m1i r.n nnnrpninfn the far-f UB1 UJ. (;`(.lU.CLLL1OIl, WHICH VVli1` '1(.'CUp|-- ed. We quite appreciate the tact that conditions have changed since 1867, but What right has a pzu-tisan government of one province to change the meaning of the Con- svtiitution of Canada ? If the Act has not been lived up to, or if it should be changed, the courts should de- cide, land not the Prime Minister 01 Ontario. I, The matter of a new division of` school taxes was made an issue in the last provincial election, as was evidenced by the almost solid Cath-\ olic vote for Hepburn candidates. Dr. Simpson, as candidant`e in Centre Simpson, pledged his support to the proposal for greater concessions to the separate schools. Premier Hep- burn and Dr. Simpson could not do otherwise than they did in introduc ing the bill. The question, howi pvnv i:, 112,: H1r>.T-Tnn}nn~n Cnvpvn.} The rapid extension of the func- tion of government in the last few years has focussed attention on the necessity of having a civil service capable of carrying out the duty which the name implies. To be` e`eotive, a civil service must have both ability and cap-a.c`t'ry to do what- ever job is assigned to it_ and must be so constituted as to exercise its funciton without fear or favor. Un- der the present system of appoint- ments, made by partisan govern- ments, it is impossible to have a highly trained and eicl-enmt civil service. Great Britain has found out that it is just as essential to the elciency of the newer depapnments to have permancy in the appoint- ment of workers as it is in the post office. Aug D116 D1141. LHB quesiuou, DU/I ever is, has the. Hepburn Govern-' ment power to pass such legislation?` The courts, in our opinion, should say whether or not the separate schools are getting their just share. I Mr. King, Mr. Dunning and M.r.% Howe. the new board of directors will be free from political interfe1'- ` ence, but the temptation to use thei; C.N.R. for vote-getting purposes will '; be strong when the neiszt election` comes around. The form of control` of the Canadian Nattional is per,` haps less important than the man ' Inpv in url-|ir"h nnhtrnl in exercised. |H'l.pS 1-BS5 llllyU1`bE:l.Ill.; LIIZIH L118 11121.11 ner in which control is exercised.

A survey of the legislation pass- ed since February 6-th, 1936, when Ilihe session assembled, is not a vcry satisfactory answer to the question `asked in the above paragraph. So far ten bills have been passed by the House of Commons and passed on to the Senate for the blessing of {That august body. True, these bills cover a number of ditferent sub jects, but with, perhaps, two ex- ccption, deal with no matter oi` major -and important public interes-. Bill No. 3, for example, amends slightly the Dominion Franchise Act. Bill No. 6 repeals the Economic Council of Canada Act. Bill No. 12 makes 9. slight revision in the To. ronto Harbour Commissioners Act. Bill No. 15 provides for the reduc tion of ve per cent. compensatioii in tthe public service. Bill No. 16 . amends the Income Wvar Tax Act, which will be recalled as a special tax applying to the ni+.mbers of the judiciary and commissioned officers of the military, na.val and air forces of Canada, as well as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Bill No 18 amends the Soldier Settlemt-.n I Act which postpones privileges lo 1 two years. Bill No. 23 makes pos- - sible assistance to the province of Saskatchewan financing cost of seed and seeding operations. Bill 24 pio- vides for the expenditure of cer- tain sums of money for the public service of the nancial year ending March 31, 1937. Bill No. 22 is of denite and specic certain sections of Canada, for it provides for the payment of pi`ii\_~ary xwihciait |of the .1930 crop dicillivered 1-to the provinces pool orgiamzatioiis D A long deubate took place on tiiis Q bill entering its second reading in ficommittee of the whole, particularly . by 9. .4.` Win 1\/I-,1-ip.c.+.v q T.nvri.l 0n.msi- nah importance in I producers of wheat, with respect to- the Minister of Agriculture, Hon-. ourable Mr. Gardin-er, and the lead-, to fulll the promise made before the 1934 election. The bill, which will divert_ to -the separate schools a large portion of- corporation taxes now going to.the public schools, was introduced with a plea for a-ii play from the Premier. He said 11 was a compromise measure, which he felt was fair and just. The measure will make compul- sory the division of corporation tax- es between the public and separate schools in the same ratio as the hold- ing oi` protestant school supporters to the separate school supporters among the shareholders. The essential feiaatures of the new i provisions are : | 1. In case where it is impossiblc' to determine the number of share- holders who are separate school sup- porter's the division of the taxes paid by a corporation is made on the basis of the ratio of the totai number of declared shareholders held by supporters of separate schools to the total stock of the company. ' 2. The onus is upon the share- holders tto advise the corporation if they are separate school supporters. 3. Provision is made for the sending by the shareholders of a notice to the corporation requiring the company to allocate to separate schools that part of its taxes repre SIel1t(:(l by his holding of shares. 4. The corporation in turn is re- quired to notify the municipality in wiiich it owns property of the num- ber of such shares in respect 01 'which notice has been given, and of`: the total number of shares of the {company so that the proportion of Ithe taxes which should go to separ- ate schools may be determined. Two types of corporations are ex- `cepted from the geneiiail provisions ' 1.
