The report of the elevator commission appointed february -28, by the Saskatchewan government has been banded to Premier Scott it in a Bulky document embracing 1s8 Type written pages and the commission is unanimous in All its findings. Public interest largely centres upon the com Mission s finding in the matter of the ownership and operation of initial elevators and on this Point. It May be briefly stated that the commission favors none of the schemes outlined before them in their entirety but Nasi evolved a solution embodying what appears to them to be the Tasev. Features of several government ownership and operation municipal ownership and operation Stata aided Farmers elevators and All various modifications of these alike discarded As faulty in some important particular nor does the existing system receive unqualified commendation. Co operative company solution. The. Solution offered by the commit Ali Slon takes the form of a co operative j inf Stock company owned entirely by the agriculturists of the province upon the directorate and executive which the government shall have no representation whatever. It is sur tested that a minimum of cent shall be paid up by the Farmers upon such of the shares of the company As Are subscribed for. That the Maxi mum number of shares allotted to. Any one person shall be ten and that 25 elevators be the minimum number proposed to be operated by the com Pany before the Central body can be organized and government assistance called for. It is suggested that this assistance take the form of a loan for each elevator such Loans to be secured by mortgages and to be repayable in Twenty equal annual instalments Prin Cipal and interest. The executive of the Saskatchewan Grain growers association Are named As a suitable provisional directorate co carry the plan to the Point where a permanent directorate can be elected. Each elevator locally controlled. For the purpose of securing the maximum amount of local control consistent with ownership by the whole body of shareholders and management through a Central Board of directors the commission recommended that each elevator be a separate unit or local in the company with a local Board elected by the local shareholders. Bach such local shall contribute one representative to the Sukose Ciment annual meetings at which the Board of directors of the whole company would be elected. It is fur ther suggested that the Stock sub scribed at each local should be equal to the Cost of the proposed elevator and the aggregate annual crop acreage of the shareholders should not be less than two thousand acres for each ten thousand bushels of the capacity of the elevator or one acre for every Dollar of proposed expenditure at each the commission. It will be generally remembered that the Saskatchewan elevator commis Sion was composed of three members these being professor Robert Magul of dal Huele University Nova Scotia George Langley i. L. A., re Berry sask., and f. W. Green of Moose jaw Secretary treasurer of the Saskatchewan Grain growers association Thia body held pre arranged and widely advertised sittings at leading centres throughout the province of Saskatchewan and received evidence from a Large number of Farmers representing All shades of thought and temperament. In response to a request from the com Mission for a draft Bill embodying their views the executive of the Saskatchewan Grain growers association submitted a lengthy memorandum expressing their views and outlining what they considered to be a feasible and adequate solution of the probe san. Scope of Cor Missi in. The commission then adjourned to Winnipeg and there took evidence from the chief Grain inspector the warehouse commissioner and the Var ious interests comprising the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Minneapolis cd. Cago and Kansas City were also visited in order that the Sample Market Exchange and inspection Ytem of each place might be investigated at first hand. The report based upon Tho information derived from the sources outlined above contains eleven chapters and an appendix comprising Nineteen tables and documents. It is without a doubt the most Complete and exhaustive analysis of the Grain Trade of Western Canada in All its bearings Aud ramifications that has yet been presented to the Public aside altogether from the recommendations of the commission and the thanks the coun by Are due to the members of that body for their untiring efforts toward solving a most intricate problem.
