Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - April 13, 1925, Winnipeg, Manitoba Manitoba free Winnipeg. 13 1925 ii ii ii quiet session just Over considered As presaging Stormy times at next possibilities of redistribution and election in 1926 freely Dis cussed and Campaign artillery expected to Hoar and Thunder at next fireworks lacking past sitting of legislature saw much business transacted and Many new acts on statute books. Little of a spectacular nature occurred the session of the Manitoba legislature just brought to b. Close. Lacking the incentive of a. Prospective election and an Issue of major importance politically the opposition wag Content throughout rather to bait the government than to Rake it broadsides of Campaign artillery. Scarcely a strafe occurred that could be dignified by the title a pitched of storms in teacups there were plenty from government emerged. If not stronger at least with its Posi Tion unimpaired. Secure in posses Sion of numerical advantage. It deigned at times to make minor con Cessions to offset opposition criticism but it conceded nothing it did not wish to yield. Politically the session was sterile. During earlier stages attempts were made to jockey the ruling party into false position but these proving abortive the efforts were abandoned until contentious Bills brought Down in the dying Days stirred the oppose for boundless Energy constipation is the deadly enemy of Energy and vitality. Tillson s natural bran is nature s remedy for constipation. It ii a certain Aid to greater strength and Vigour. Bread or muffins made of of lion s bran either with or without fruit Are delicious and App Etiz pleasant Way to Ward off or Correct intestinal sluggishness. Tillson s natural bran is the coating of the finest wheat. It is the Best bran for baking. The largest package on the Market is cents Tillson s not cooked stub ton to renewed activity. Indication Are however the Calm of tto ser just closed is augury of expected next year. Possibilities a redistribution and an election in 1926 were freely discussed in the Cor Eldors and it is altogether when the members reassemble the will come with powder dry ready of Battle. Much business transacted considerable business was transacted during the session the amount comparing favourably with previous years of the 143 Bills which came before the Holise 11 passed on to the statutes the previous and longer session ii were dealt which 118 Wero a surplus of in Stead of the anticipated deficit the Premier in his role of provincial treasurer indicated in his budget speech no new taxation was proposed. Existing taxes however. Wero altered slightly the gasoline tax be no increased from one cent to three cents a gallon subject to certain exemptions while the income tax exemption in respect to each child was increased from to ji500. The amendment to the gasoline tax act by which the increased Levy was effected produced the first real fireworks of the session the boost Lelong scored in scathing terms by opposition members in the chamber and by Strong delegations in com Mittee. Despite the criticism How Ever the government succeeded in placing the amendment on the Sta utes. Relating to this measure closely was the amendment to the motor vehicle act by which License yes were reduced All round by who loss suffered by this reduction was assumed to gain n Revenue derived from the increased Gas tax. The workmen s compensation act was amended in several particulars by a Bill sponsored by Hon. R. W. Based on of a special com nit tee which had investigated All Hases of the matter during recess. He changes according to or. Craig while not implementing All the recommendations made assured peace n compensation affairs for several fears to come. Included in the Al rations was a new scale of pay ments to dependents under which a Vidow receives ?30, with for .1 first child ?10 for a second i9 for a Hird and ?8 for a fourth child or ther children. Another clause enacted provides that a Foster Mother be treated on the same basis a a widow. Good roads act Merced of the High lights of the ses Lon was Hon. W. R. Clubb Bill to mend the Good roads in which was set Forth government s plan of a provincial Highway system. The measure endorsed virtually unanimously empowers the government to assume control and maintenance of Runk roads As traffic conditions. Hen to Tho municipalities served warrant. Now legislation passed in the losing Days of the session included in act which provides for Oompaul Ory treatment of drug addicts and nother which provides for St enabling municipalities to Bor Row up to for seed purposes he second providing for supplies of eed to settlers in unorganized territory. General municipal legislation was fairly heavy the majority of the Bills introduced having reference to Extension of the time for issuing debentures for Road and improvement purposes. Brandon came Forward with a series of Bills seeking to Amend its charter the Issue being concerned mainly with its Street rail Vay and Power problems. It also ought to be placed on. The same foot no As Winnipeg under the Cora pen action act but was denied the be. St. Boniface too submitted considerable legislation but was not uniformly successful in implementing to desires. It failed for example get governmental authority to enter Sal business As a mull cd he and was also denied t to against the Whittier tract did obtain per v however. To make a 1ssue lands and tax Sale certificates. To a retiring a Toni and its depleted sinking fund. Assembly act was amended to permit reimbursement of members attending meetings of Spe. O Al committees during recess for out of pocket expenses incurred the chief legislation obtained by private interests was that incorporating the Manitoba Pool elevators ltd., which enables the Manitoba co operative wheat producers to i up a Caln of elevators throughout the province for the Benefit of Pool members. This required introduction of two Bills that of incorporation and the other Mak no necessary changes in the Char of the Parent company. The government also introduced Legisla Ion of Kindred import in the marketing and co operative association it which extends the principle of the old co operative associations act which it repeals. A series of agreements Between Jie Winnipeg electric company and certain suburban municipalities were ratified by the despite opposition chiefly from members of the labor group who read into the Bill monopolistic infringe ment of the rights of the electors. Early in the session a. Bill was enacted whereby the government s fiscal year was changed to end at april. 30 instead of August. 31. This necessitates two. Complete sets of estimates one for the eight month period ending april 30, 1925, and an other for the full year ending april 30, 1926. City of Winnipeg business As City of Winnipeg occupied a prominent position in legislation before the House during the-session.1 there was the usual Batch of amendments to the City charter none of which were of a very Radical nature and some of such apparent Absurdity to arouse the ire of some of the members. However when it was pointed out that the Council legally could not take the action desired without the consent of the legislature the necessary consent was readily Given. One the charter in this category sought to legalize expenditure by the Council on a Floral tribute to a departed member of the Council. That the Council lacked this authority astounded Many of the members and Lee George Compton Manitou. To declare be was time the whole City charter was revised in. A manner that would permit the elected representatives of the people to be credited with a Little common sense and to Deai with such matters without having to obtain legislative Sanction. I although Winnipeg obtained most of what of the. Amendments sought it was not so fortunate when it re Quested permission to. Grant fixed assessment for new industries. The principle of such a policy was at tacked As being economically in sound by the labor group by members of other groups so that the Bill not even obtain a Sec Ond Reading. The Bill that caused the greatest stir insofar As official Winnipeg was concerned Bayley Bill for the annexation of Brooklands to the was Well known around line corridors that the Spon Sor would not press it through to a that a majority of the members of the House did not favor such there were Mem Bers of the City Council who stood in.
