The provincial government takes the stand that Tho imposition at this time when negotiations Are proceeding for Sale of Power to cer Tain districts in North Dakota and Minnesota is placing a prohibitive Barrier against development of the provincial Hydro system. The Posi Tion is taken that insofar As Mani Toba is concerned the amount of Power involved in the negotiations is limited by the physical capacity c the transmission lines contemplated and by the demands of the districts to be served. According to state ments of the provincial officials the Power is sought for Domestic and farm purposes Only and not for manufacturing or Industrial purposes. Taking Tho View the duty was pro posed with the object of doing Noth ing to Aid Industrial development in Border states which would react against Canada the Manitoba government feels that As applied in the West the imposition is uncalled for. Hon. A. R Gnu by minister of Public works voiced pleasure yesterday when shown the report in the free press indicating that the proposed duty might be abandoned. The Manitoba government had filed formal protest against the Export duty last week. Says great Rig Emfs reformation on Way it. Rev. Irving s.
