Rresidents of the two townships assert that there is near- ly as much sewage going down the river now as hefore the plant was built, and claim that the odor from the plant is unbearable, 8S. R. T.

Lamphier, head of the Selfridge field pursuit squad- ron, lead to reports that Lamp- hier's air unit would take part in the flight, Although Lamphier has refused to discuss the proposal for publica- tion he told the United Press that he would like to make such a jaunt, The Selfridge pursuit group is one of the finest units in the army's air service. It would make an excellent showing abroad in event such a flight were under- taken. The plan, as discussed in flying circles here, would be to take the 12 planes across the Atlantic on hoats as they are not equipped for such long distance flights as that made hy Lindbergh in his 'Spirit of St. Louis."

CONGRESS THE QSHAAW DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY. JULY 9, 1927 A SEE | CUSTONS' PROBE 8.-- Before HOLDS MEETING IN HISTORIC HALL Room in Which Confedera- tion Fathers Met Being Used LOW REVENUES Collectors Tell of Small Amounts Taken at Some Outports Charlottetown, P. BE. I, July 9. --The Royal Customs Commission opened sittings here in historic sur roundings Wednesday. Commis- sioners and counsel gathered in the excutive council chamber of the provincial chamber of the provin- cial building, the room in which Confetleration had its birth. Round the same table at which sat the Fathers of Confederation on Sep- tember 1, 1864, Chief Commissioner J. T. Brown and Commissioners W. H. Wright and Ernest Roy, to- gether with their assisting counsel, delved into the administrations of customs in Prince Edward Island. Indications are that the Prince Ed- ward Island sittings will be brief. One of the outstanding features of the sitting Wednesday after- noon, which drew comment from the chief commissioner, was evidence of the great number of ports, out ports, collecting and preventive sta- tions, in this province. That the revenue collected at some of these is practically nil was revealed dur- ing. the examination of F. J. Casey, isspector of customs and excise for the island province. Grand River, a point at which customs revenues are collected, reported revenue of four dollars in the fiscal year 1924- 26, one dollar in 1925-26 and $7.50 in the fiscal year 1926-27. Mr. Casey informed the commissioners that he was at a loss to know why "Ge leading { 10 Cigar "Bana 10° Monday, July 11th July awa and District--V aluable Pirates vs O.M.1.

It was primarily for preventive work and the customs husiness could he handled by eith- er Cardigan or Georgetown. Card- igan, it was discovered, had cus- toms collections of $154 in 1026- | 26 and $607 In the year preceding that. R, B. Law, assistant com- mission counsel, said he thought that the collections at Cardigan during the fiscal year 1926-27 were $72. What Justification "What is the justification for an outport there?" Chief Commission- er Brown asked the witness, with respect to Cardigan. Inspector Casey said that this customs station was used chiefly for the clearing of vessels. He gave the number of customs entries at the port. "You would not have to sit up at night to do that," suggested Commissioner Wright. Mr. Casey said that the sub-co'. lector at Cardigan is a part tine man adn that his salary is $360 per annum. Duty collected at Victoria, near Borden, amounted to $79 in 1924-25; $63 in 1925-26 and $169 in 1926-27. Other places which were referred to as having small collections were Murray Harbor, St. Peters and Alberton. The 'opening sitting here Wed- nesday afternoon was devoted largely to the examination of cust- oms officers. In addition to In- spector Casey, John McMillan, customs collector at Charlottetown; Henry M. Baker, collector at Sum- merside, and various sub-collectors at outports took the stand. The only witness who is not connected with the Customs Department was James Paton, chairman of the Prohibition Commission. He dealt with seiz- ures effected by provincial prohibi- | tion officers, or with their assist- ance and suggested that a certain proportion of liquors seized should province. 'The con- sensus of opinion expressed was that there is smuggling of liquor along the Prince Edward Island Coast, but that there is little or no smuggling in anything else. It was suggested that a few cigarettes and a small quantity of tobacco comes in by the underround route. Size of Revenue Inspector Casey, the first officer to be examined, gave evidence as to the size and revenues of various ports and outports which come within his jisspectorate. He point- ed out that some of the outports which do very little business were kept open as a convenience to peo- ple in the vicinity. For instance, in the case of St. Pierre, he stated that copsiderable warm, winter clothing was sent in by friends of local people. "Does not that justify keeping an outport open?" asked Mr. Law.
