The letter, along with several others written about that time to the Ontario registrar of loan and trust companies, was ta- bled as an exhibit Thursday in the royal commission investiga- tion into Atlantic's collapse in June, 1965. British Mortgage invested heavily in Atlantic and was taken over by Victoria and Grey Trust Co., of Lindsay, Ont., shortly after Atlantic's collapse. Wilfred P. Gregory wrote the letter to Registrar Cecil Rich- ards after a telephone call ask- ing him about some of his com- pany's loans and investments. At that time British Mortgage had about double its capital stock, reserves and undivided profit invested in Atlantic and associated companies. The Ontario Loan and Trust Corporations Act provides that all investments by trust com- panies in shares and deben- tures of other companies which do not fall within specific ca- tegories be limited to 15 per cent of paid up capital and re- serves.

The commission, which is winding up its hearings with an investigation of British Mort- gage, was told the collapse of Atlantic left British Mortgage with $12,000,000 outstanding in loans and securities of the com- pany and its affiliates. Mr. Gregory's March 22 let- ter also said that the company's investments to various individu- als were safe and that "prac- tically every borrower is a mil- lionaire."" The investments to individu- als were shown to the commis- sion as loans to people asso- ciated with Atlantic and its companies, secured by deben- tures, stocks and notes of these companies, They totalled $3,407,000 at the time of Atlan- tic's collapse, : A. W. Moreton, commission accountant, sald about $2,847, 000 had been recovered up to Dec. 31 of British Mortgage's outstanding funds of $12,000,000. He said it is expected an- other $2,706,000 will be forth- coming. This will leave British Mortgage with a net loss of $6,646,000 on its investment in Atlantic. The quick takeover of British Mortgage by Victoria and Grey left no depositor or guaranteed investment certificate holder with a loss, Mr. Moreton said. Nixon Criticizes Robarts In Niagara Parks Handling TORONTO (CP) -- The On-|ommended in a consultant's re-jing stunt across the Niagara tario Liberal Leader Robert Nixon said Thursday Premier John Robarts' handling of the resignations of six Niagara parks commission members was a "perversion of democ- racy" and called for a public inquiry. He said in a statement the premier was deliberately hiding the facts in order to cover up what appears to be a '"'provin- eial administrative mess." "If there is nothing wrong, what is the premier afraid of, and why does he hide behind the thin technicality that let- ters of complaint from mem- bers of the parks commission were marked private and con- fidential?"' Mr. Robarts had declined port commissioned by the city of Niagara Falls. An official said Ontario was not directly involved in the pro- ject although it would partici- pate in it if it were approved. Highways Minister Gomme said in the legislature he did not know if his department planned a four-lane highway through Victoria Park. In Niagara Falls, Mayor Franklin J. Miller said Thurs- day that Mr. Allan had 'un- mercifully' chastised Mr. |vested in the federal or provin- jcial governments. | France, however, is claiming a chunk of the Atlantic shelf.by virtue of its ownership of the St. Pierre - Miquelon island group. square miles of land. shore rights on an article of the Geneva convention that states: "Where the same continental shelf is adjacent to territories of two adjacent states, the boun- daries of the shelf shall be de- termined by agreement." CHALLENGES VIEW Canada has challenged this interpretation. It says only com- mon sense is needed to under- stand that the convention does not apply to this kind of situa- tion. There is a high potential for rich oilfields under the Atlantic shetznbt major discovery in the disputed region could touch off a classic diplomatic feud. But so far the dispute has been a quiet one with neither side raising a public fuss. If it came to a showdown, Canada could exert considerable pressure on the French by cut- ting off services to the islands. The general feeling here is that public opinion would sup- port a touch attitude by Ottawa towards the French claim and, conversely, that the government would be hurt politically if it backed down. of resignation, that three fac- tors were involved in the dis- pute: "A proposed tight - rope walk- /Gorge; remodelling plans for the Rainbow Bridge plaza in Victoria Park and a proposal for a public cocktail lounge at the refectory, location of the commission's headquarters.
