2  THE   SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 

The  Honourable  the  Speaker  informed  the  Senate  that  he  had  received 
a  communication  from  the  Secretary  to  the  Governor  General,  as  follows:  — 

OFFICE   OF   THE   GOVERNOR   GENERAL'S   SECRETARY,   CANADA 

OTTAWA,    15th   January,    1951. 

Sir, — I  have  the  honour  to  inform  you  that  His  Excellency  the  Governor 
General  will  arrive  at  the  main  entrance  of  the  Houses  of  Parliament  at  3  p.m. 
on  Tuesday,  January  30th,  and  when  it  has  been  signified  that  all  is  in  readiness, 
will  proceed  to  the  Senate  Chamber  to  open  the  Fourth  Session  of  the  Twenty- 
first  Parliament  of  Canada. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be 

Sir, 
Your  obedient  servant, 


H.  F.  G.  LETSON, 
Secretary  to  the  Governor  General. 


The  Honourable 

The  Speaker  of  the  Senate, 
Ottawa. 


Ordered,  That  the  same  do  lie  on  the  Table. 


The  Senate  adjourned  during  pleasure. 


After  a  while,  His  Excellency  the  Governor  General  having  come,  and  being 
seated  on  the  Throne, — 

The  Honourable  the  Speaker  commanded  the  Gentleman  Usher  of  the  Black 
Rod  to  proceed  to  the  House  of  Commons  and  acquaint  that  House  that, — 

It  is  His  Excellency  the  Governor  General's  pleasure  that  they  attend  him 
immediately  in  the  Senate  Chamber. 


The  House  of  Commons  being  come, 


His  Excellency  the  Governor  General  was  pleased  to  open  the  Session 
by  a  Gracious  Speech  to  both  Houses,  as  follows:  — 

Honourable  Members  of  the  Senate: 
Members  of  the  House  of  Commons: 

Since  you  met  in  Special  Session  in  the  autumn  of  last  year,  there  has  been 
a  further  deterioration  in  the  international  situation.  The  intervention  of 
Chinese  forces  in  active  opposition  to  the  United  Nations  forces  in  Korea  has 
increased  the  danger  of  a  general  conflagration. 


A.D.  1951  30TH  JANUARY 


So  far  the  efforts  to  achieve  a  peaceful  settlement  in  the  Far  East  have 
not  succeeded.  While  aggression  cannot  be  condoned  and  will  continue  to  be 
resisted,  it  is  the  view  of  my  Ministers  that  the  door  to  negotiation  at  any  time 
a  cessation  of  hostilities  in  Korea  can  be  arranged  must  be  kept  open. 

The  increased  menace  in  the  Far  East  reinforces  the  mounting  evidence 
that  Communist  imperialism  is  determined  to  dominate  the  world  by  force 
or  the  fear  of  force,  and  that  the  only  hope  of  maintaining  peace  with  freedom 
lies  in  the  rapid  increase  of  the  combined  strength  of  the  free  nations.  It  is 
equally  important  that  the  free  nations  should  make  it  abundantly  clear  that 
they  have  no  aggressive  designs  and  that  they  are  resolved  to  aid  in  constructive 
endeavours  to  improve  the  standards  of  human  welfare  in  under-developed 
countries. 

My  Ministers  have  endeavoured  to  uphold  these  international  objectives  in 
the  deliberations  of  the  United  Nations,  at  the  recent  meeting  of  the  Prime 
Ministers  of  the  Commonwealth  countries,  and  in  our  diplomatic  relations  with 
all  nations  and  governments. 

Units  of  the  Royal  Canadian  Navy  and  the  Royal  Canadian  Air  Force 
have  shared  from  the  outset  in  the  United  Nations  action  in  Korea.  One  bat 
talion  of  the  Canadian  Army  Special  Force  is  now  in  Korea,  and  the  rest  of 
the  force  is  at  Fort  Lewis,  Washington,  where  it  is  available  for  service  in 
Korea  or  for  other  employment  in  discharge  of  our  international  obligations. 

Progress  has  been  made  in  the  organization  of  an  integrated  force  in 
Europe  under  the  North  Atlantic  Treaty  Organization.  The  Supreme  Comman 
der,  General  Eisenhower,  has  recently  visited  Canada  to  consult  with  the 
Government  and  the  Chiefs  of  Staff.  You  will  be  asked  early  in  the  session 
to  authorize  Canadian  participation  in  this  integrated  force  as  part  of  our 
programme  for  national  defence  and  security.  You  will  also  be  asked  to 
approve  substantially  increased  expenditures  for  defence. 

The  urgent  need  of  the  St.  Lawrence  seaway  and  power  project  in  relation 
to  the  security  of  this  continent  is  becoming  increasingly  apparent.  It  is  the 
view  of  my  Ministers  that  the  Canadian  authorities  should  be  kept  in  a  posi 
tion  to  co-operate  promptly  in  undertaking  construction  of  the  project  once 
affirmative  action  has  been  taken  by  the  appropriate  United  States  authorities^ 

Your  approval  will  be  sought  for  an  appropriate  Canadian  participation 
in  the  Colombo  plan  and  in  technical  assistance  to  under-developed  areas. 

The  policies  of  the  government  are  designed  to  prevent  war,  but  the  dan 
gers  of  the  international  situation  and  the  magnitude  of  the  defence  effort 
required  as  a  deterrent  have,  in  the  opinion  of  my  Ministers,  created  an. 
emergency  situation.  You  will  accordingly  be  asked  to  approve  legislation! 
vesting  in  the  Governor  in  Council  additional  powers  to  ensure  adequate 
defence  preparations  to  meet  the  present  emergency  and  to  prevent  economic 
dislocation  resulting  from  defence  preparations. 

You  will  also  be  asked  to  approve  a  Bill  to  establish  a  Department  of 
Defence  Production  to  act  as  a  procurement  agency  for  the  defence  forces  of 
Canada  and  also  for  such  defence  requirements  of  our  allies  as  may  be  met 
from  Canadian  production. 

Amendments  to  legislation  relating  to  the  armed  forces  will  also  be  sub 
mitted  for  your  approval. 

Legislation  will  be  submitted  respecting  the  application  of  the  benefits 
of  the  Veterans  Charter  to  members  of  the  Special  Force.  Amendments  will 
be  introduced  to  legislation  concerning  pensions  for  veterans  and  their  depen 
dents  to  relieve  difficulties  being  experienced  by  certain  groups  of  pensioners, 
provided  for  thereunder. 

80715— 1J 


THE   SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 


Appropriate  amendments  to  the  Canadian  Citizenship  Act  will  be  .intro 
duced  to  prevent  the  retention  of  Canadian  citizenship  by  persons  who  have 
renounced  their  allegiance  or  shown  by  their  conduct  that  they  are  not  loyal 
to  Canada. 

The  high  level  of  employment  and  production  within  our  country  give 
our  people  increased  capacity  to  meet  the  demands  of  national  and  international 
security. 

The  spirit  of  unity  so  happily  reflected  in  the  conferences  between  the 
Federal  and  Provincial  Governments  is  further  evidence  of  our  ability  to 
make  an  effective  national  response  to  the  emergency. 

Proposals  were  laid  before  the  provincial  governments  for  new  tax  agree 
ments  and  for  a  contributory  old  age  pensions  programme  along  the  lines 
recommended  by  the  Joint  Committee  at  the  last  regular  session. 

The  provincial  governments  are  at  present  giving  consideration  to  these 
proposals  and  to  proposals  for  constitutional  amendments  which  may  require 
to  be  submitted  to  you  before  the  close  of  the  present  session. 

You  will  be  asked  to  consider  measures  respecting  federal  grants  to  muni 
cipalities  in  lieu  of  taxation  of  Crown  property,  the  abolition  of  the  requirement 
of  the  fiat  in  the  case  of  Petitions  of  Right,  and  the  bequests  of  Laurier  House 
and  Kingsmere. 

You  will  also  be  asked  to  consider  a  complete  revision  of  the  Indian  Act 
.and  the  Consolidated  Revenue  and  Audit  Act. 

Other  measures  to  be  introduced  will  include  amendments  to  the  Immi 
gration  Act,  the  Post  Office  Act,  the  Central  Mortgage  and  Housing  Act,  the 
Gold  Mining  Assistance  Act  and  the  Customs  Act. 

It  is  anticipated  that  the  reports  of  the  Royal  Commissions  on  Transporta 
tion  and  on  National  Development  in  the  Arts,  Letters  and  Sciences  will  become 
available  during  the  course  of  the  session. 


Members  of  the  House  of  Commons: 

You  will  be  asked  to  make  provision  for  national  defence  and  the  meeting 
of  our  obligations  under  the  United  Nations  Charter  and  the  North  Atlantic 
Treaty,  as  well  as  for  all  essential  services. 

Honourable  Members  of  the  Senate: 

Members  of  the  House  of  Commons: 

May  Divine  Providence  bless  your  deliberations  and  give  to  our  people 
the  fortitude  and  patience  to  sustain  the  trials  of  these  troubled  times. 


The  Commons  withdrew. 


His  Excellency  the  Governor  General  was  pleased  to  retire. 


A.D.   1951  30TH  JANUARY

The  Honourable  Senator  Crerar  from  the  Standing  Committee  on  Finance, 
to  whom  was  referred  the  Estimates  laid  before  Parliament  for  the  fiscal  year 
ending  March  31,  1952,  presented  the  following  Report. 

THURSDAY,   21st  June,    1951. 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Finance  to  whom  was  referred  the  Estimates 
laid  before  Parliament  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  March  31,  1952,  have  in 
obedience  to  the  order  of  reference  of  March  14,  1951,  examined  the  said 
Estimates  and  now  beg  leave  to  report  as  follows:  — 


A.D.  1951  21sr  JUNE  405 


The  Main  Estimates  for  Government  expenditures  in  the  present  fiscal 
year  that  began  April  1  were  given  to  the  House  of  Commons  on  March  12  and 
to  the  Senate  a  day  or  two  later.  On  March  14  the  Senate  adopted  the  following 
Resolution: 

ORDER   OF   REFERENCE 


That  the  Standing  Committee  on  Finance  be  authorized  to  examine 
the  expenditures  proposed  by  the  Estimates  laid  before  Parliament  for 
the  fiscal  year  ending  March  31,  1952,  in  advance  of  the  Bills  based 
on  the  said  Estimates  reaching  the  Senate:  That  it  be  empowered  to 
send  for  records  of  revenues  from  taxation  collected  by  the  Federal, 
Provincial  and  Municipal  Governments  in  Canada,  and  records  of 
expenditures  by  such  governments,  showing  sources  of  income  and 
expenditures  of  same  under  appropriate  headings,  together  with  estimates 
of  gross  national  production,  net  national  income  and  movement  of  the 
cost-of-living  index,  and  their  relation  to  such  total  expenditures,  for 
the  year  1939  and  for  the  latest  year  for  which  the  information  is  avail 
able,  and  such  other  matters  as  may  be  pertinent  to  the  examination 
of  the  Estimates,  and  to  report  upon  the  same. 

That  the  said  Committee  be  empowered  to  send  for  persons,  papers 
and  records. 


Prior  to  the  Easter  adjournment  steps  had  been  taken  to  secure  from 
the  appropriate  Government  Departments  certain  statistical  data  which  were 
available  to  your  Committee  when  it  resumed  its  work  at  the  beginning  of 
May.  An  examination  of  these  statistical  data  was  decided  upon,  to  ascertain  as 
far  as  possible  what  effect  government  spending  at  all  levels  of  government  had 
on  the  rising  cost-of-living,  or  in  other  words  on  the  inflationary  pressure  that 
produced  these  rising  costs. 

With  this  end  in  view  the  Committee  examined  the  totals  of  proposed 
Federal  Government  expenditures  for  the  current  year  and  noted  the  com 
parison  of  these  expenditures  with  the  fiscal  year  ending  March  31,  1939,  which 
was  taken  as  a  base  year.  The  expenditures  in  the  fiscal  years  ending  1950 
and  1951  were  also  compared  with  the  expenditures  proposed  for  the  fiscal 
year  ending  1952,  shown  in  the  Estimates  under  consideration. 

The  data  covering  this  are  shown  in  Exhibit  1  appended  to  this  report. 
This  Exhibit  is  a  summary  of  annual  estimates  by  standard  objects  of  expendi 
tures  and  special  categories: 

(a)  The   expenditures    brought   about   through   defence   preparations    are 
shown  under  the  heading  of  "National  Defence  and  Defence  Produc 
tion". 

(b)  For  Departments  other  than  National  Defence  and  Defence  Production, 
which  can  be  said  to  be  the  ordinary  civilian  expenses  of  Government. 

(c)  A  combination  of  these  under  the  heading  of  "Totals  for  all  Depart 
ments". 

Explanatory  notes  of  each  of  these  items  of  expenditure  are  appended 
to  Exhibit  1.  The  increases  in  practically  all  Departments  of  our  Federal 
Government,  even  measured  in  1939  dollars,  are  very  significant.  They  should 
be  a  matter  for  concern  and  should  be  clearly  studied  in  relation  to  the  problem 


406  THE  SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 


of  taxation  and  the  increasing  burden  on  our  economy.  An  apparatus  of 
Government  whose  costs  increase  more  rapidly  than  the  increase  in  population 
and  the  production  of  new  wealth,  can  lead  to  serious  dangers  to  the  state 
as  a  whole. 

Exhibit  2  shows  the  combined  revenues  and  expenditures  for  all  Govern 
ments  in  Canada,  Federal,  Provincial  and  Municipal,  for  the  years  1939, 
again  taken  as  a  base  year,  and  for  1948  and  1949.  There  is  included  also  a 
similar  preliminary  estimate  for  1950.  It  is  important  to  point  out  here  that 
the  statement  of  revenue  does  not  include  inter- governmental  transfers.  For 
example,  the  Federal  Government  pays  statutory  subsidies  to  the  Provinces  and 
substantial  sums  under  the  fiscal  agreements  with  the  provinces  who  rented  their 
right  to  collect  income  and  corporation  taxes  to  the  Federal  authority. 

Your  Committee  desires  to  draw  special  attention  to  this  statement, 
Exhibit  2.  It  indicates  the  sources  from  which  revenues  are  secured  by  each 
of  the  levels  of  Government  and  also  the  purposes  for  which  the  revenue  thus 
secured  is  expended.  For  illustration,  it  indicates  the  cost  of  servicing  the 
overall  public  debt  of  Canada,  which  increased  from  approximately  $264  million 
in  1939  to  over  $492  million  in  1949,  and  is  now  well  over  $500  million.  Almost 
all  of  this  increase  was  due  to  the  expenditures  incurred  in  the  second  world 
war.  It  also  indicates  the  great  increase  in  social  service  expenditures  over 
the  same  period  in  the  country's  progress  to  the  ideal  of  the  welfare  state. 
Under  this  heading  the  increase,  exclusive  of  soldiers  pensions  and  care,  was 
from  approximately  $208  million  to  over  $800  million  in  1949.  This  type  of 
expenditure  continues  to  increase. 

Exhibit  3  is  a  statement  of  national  income  and  gross  national  product 
in  each  year  from  1939  to  1950,  with  a  few  explanatory  notes.  It  is  important 
here  to  draw  a  distinction  between  gross  national  product  and  net  national 
income.  Gross  national  product  is  the  gross  income  of  all  the  people  of  Canada 
from  all  sources,  which  can  be  compared  to  the  gross  income  of  a  business 
corporation  or  a  farmer  or  a  labouring  man.  To  arrive  at  the  net  national 
income  certain  deductions  must  be  made  from  the  gross  product.  In  the  course 
of  a  year  machinery  employed  has  to  be  depreciated  in  value  because  it  may 
become  out  of  date,  or  because  ordinary  wear  and  tear  makes  it  less  valuable 
at  the  end  of  the  year  than  at  the  beginning  of  the  year.  The  same  thing  is 
true  of  houses  and  automobiles.  When  all  of  these  and  similar  charges  are  put 
together  they  are  deducted  from  the  gross  product  and  the  result  may  be 
described  as  the  net  national  income.  From  this  total  of  national  income  of 
all  the  people  in  Canada  their  total  living  expenses  have  to  be  deducted  and 
since  Canadians  enjoy  a  high  standard  of  living  this  amount  is  the  major  item. 
In  the  second  place,  from  the  national  income  of  all  the  people  in  Canada  there 
has  to  be  deducted  the  amount  they  pay  in  taxes  to  their  various  governments. 
Broadly  speaking,  what  is  left  is  the  volume  of  savings,  from  which  expansion 
and  further  development  takes  place,  which  may  be  invested  in  life  insurance 
policies  or  annuities  or  retained  by  individual  Canadians  as  a  provision  against 
a  rainy  day.  It  is  a  matter  for  concern  that  in  the  past  few  years  personal 
savings  have  shown  a  rather  marked  tendency  to  decline  in  volume.  In  his 
recent  budget  speech  the  Finance  Minister  drew  attention  to  the  importance 
of  this  matter  of  personal  savings  in  the  following  words. 

"It  is  to  the  interest  of  every  Canadian  to  make  the  maximum  effort 
to  save,  or  to  increase  the  level  of  his  saving,  as  a  direct  contribution  to 
the  avoidance  of  inflation  and  the  successful  prosecution  of  the  defence 
program.  The  money  saved  can  be  used  to  buy  Canada  savings  bonds, 
or  to  pay  off  the  mortgage  on  his  house  or  farm  more  rapidly,  or  to 
speed  up  the  repayment  of  other  debts,  or  to  increase  his  savings  in  any 


A.D.  1951  21ST  JUNE  407 


other  form  that  suits  his  individual  circumstances.  The  important  thing 
is  to  achieve  an  increase  in  aggregate  saving  up  to  a  level  at  least  equal 
to  the  new  capital  investment  which  we  shall  have  to  make  this  year." 

Your  Committee  considered  it  of  first  importance  that  individual  Can 
adians  as  far  as  possible  get  a  clear  understanding  of  what  this  means.  If 
individual  Canadians  spend  their  substance  foolishly  or  unwisely,  if  they  are 
lazy  and  thriftless,  without  any  doubt  they  create  problems  for  themselves 
and  for  their  governments.  If  governments,  in  response  to  public  pressures, 
spend  money  foolishly  or  unnecessarily,  they  put  heavier  burdens  on  taxpayers 
and  create  political  discontent  and  unrest.  If  political  parties  try  to  rival 
each  other,  in  promises  to  the  electorate,  seeking  in  this  way  to  gain  political 
support,  they  are  doing  a  real  disservice  to  our  country.  The  easy  road  is 
rarely  a  wise  or  prudent  one  to  follow.  Scarcely  a  week  passes  without  some 
group  of  people,  or  some  organization,  pressing  upon  some  government,  some 
where  in  Canada,  some  project  for  spending  more  public  money.  The  result 
of  this  is  that  we  have  reached  a  stage  in  practically  all  levels  of  Government 
in  Canada  where  those  in  authority  are  seeking  some  new  tax,  hidden  or 
unhidden,  through  which  they  can  meet  the  demands  made  upon  them.  This 
course,  if  persisted  in,  is  fatal  to  our  well  being  as  a  people. 

As  a  result  of  much  loose  talking  and  superficial  thinking,  the  notion 
has  grown  alarmingly  in  the  minds  of  a  great  many  people  that  governments 
get  their  money  in  some  mysterious  fashion;  that  part  of  the  responsibility 
of  governments  is  to  solve  the  problems  of  communities  and  individuals  which 
these  communities  and  individuals  should  solve  for  themselves.  In  this  way 
individual  self-reliance  and  initiative  is  undermined.  The  wilderness  which 
a  few  hundred  years  ago  was  the  Canada  we  know  today  was  not  developed 
in  this  way. 

In  the  judgment  of  your  Committee  the  steady  growth  that  has  been 
apparent  now  for  quite  a  number  of  years,  of  dependence  upon  the  state,  can 
lead  to  only  one  of  two  results:  Either  in  a  steady  increase  in  the  power  of 
the  state  over  the  right  of  the  citizens,  or  the  breakdown  of  democratic  repre 
sentative  government  as  we  have  understood  it  and  practised  it  in  the  past. 
The  lessons  of  history  in  this  respect  are  clear  for  all  to  read. 

In  Exhibit  4  is  given  a  table  of  the  number  of  Civil  Service  employees 
of  the  Government  of  Canada,  again  taking  1939  as  a  base  year  and  giving 
the  numbers  for  the  years  1948-49-50-51.  A  cool  examination  of  this  table 
will  convey  an  idea  of  the  growth  in  government  services.  It  was  of  course 
inevitable  during  the  war  years  that  there  would  be  great  expansion  in  the 
number  of  government  servants,  but  one  could  have  hoped  that  in  the  years 
following  the  war,  and  especially  five  years  after  the  war  was  over,  that  the 
number  would  have  diminished.  Instead  of  this  there  has  been  a  steady 
expansion.  Your  Committee  had  not  the  data  available  of  the  trends  in  this 
respect  at  other  levels  of  government  of  Canada,  that  is  provincial  and 
municipal,  but  it  believes  that  these  other  levels  of  government  would  show 
quite  substantial  increases  also. 

Exhibit  5  shows  the  movement  of  the  cost-of-living  index.  This  index 
has  shown  an  alarming  increase  since  the  end  of  World  War  2.  It  is  the  visual 
evidence  of  inflationary  processes  that  are  working  in  the  Canadian  economy. 
This  condition  is  not  alone  the  experience  of  Canada.  It  is  a  problem  that  is 
met  with  today  in  every  democratic  country  in  the  world.  The  cause  of  this 
inflation  can  be  stated  briefly  as  too  much  spending  against  too  few  goods. 
There  is  no  doubt  that  the  methods  necessary  in  financing  World  War  2  created 


408  THE  SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 


tremendous  inflationary  pressures.  This  has  been  the  experience  of  all  wars 
of  any  magnitude;  but  because  World  War  2  was  world  wide  in  the  incidence 
of  the  struggle,  these  pressures  were  generated  on  a  scale  never  before 
experienced;  and  the  reason  is  simple.  War  is  a  terribly  destructive  thing  in 
its  effect  on  any  economy.  It  creates  tremendous  expansion  of  credit  and 
money  and  democratic  peoples  have  not  yet  learned  the  lesson  of  the  great 
dangers  inherent  in  this,  and  lack  the  self-discipline  necessary  to  get  back 
again  on  to  solid  ground.  Moreover,  it  must  be  said  that  the  financial  policies 
followed  by  governments  since  the  end  of  the  war  were  not  always  wisely 
directed  to  bring  this  lurking  menace  under  effective  control. 

During  the  war  all  economic  activities  rightly  were  directed  to  winning 
the  war;  but  this  process  continued  over  four  years  created  an  immense  void 
throughout  the  world  of  consumer  goods  of  all  kinds.  There  was  superimposed 
upon  this,  greatly  expanded  social  welfare  expenditures.  In  other  words, 
payments  by  governments  out  of  their  treasuries  for  social  welfare  budgets 
of  one  kind  and  another.  Your  Committee  is  not  discussing  here  the  necessity 
or  otherwise  of  these  expenditures;  but  it  ventures  to  say  that  their  effect  in 
producing  additional  inflationary  pressures  cannot  be  successfully  challenged. 

Another  important  point  may  be  noted  here.  If  labour  costs  rise,  without 
an  equivalent  increase  in  production  per  unit  of  labour,  these  increased  costs 
are  almost  always  added  to  the  cost  of  goods  or  services,  and  thus  in  effect 
are  inflationary.  As  at  end  of  May  the  cost  of  living  had  increased  82  per  cent 
in  the  last  twelve  years.  The  general  index  for  wages,  according  to  a  recent 
release  from  the  Minister  of  Labour,  stood  at  225-5  for  April  1951  compared 
with  100  in  1939.  The  Finance  Minister  in  his  recent  budget  speech  stated 
"Statistics  and  charts  in  the  white  paper  I  have  tabled  indicate  that  there 
has  been  no  measurable  increase  in  per  capita  productivity  during  the  past 
five  years."  It  would  thus  appear  that  the  increase  in  productivity  that  has 
taken  place,  has  been  due  almost  wholly  to  the  increase  in  the  labour  force 
at  work.  If  wages  rise  without  a  corresponding  increase  in  productivity  the 
effect  of  this  is  bound  to  be  inflationary  on  prices.  No  solution  can  be  found 
in  prices  chasing  wages  and  wages  chasing  prices  in  a  dizzy  spiral  that  has 
already  reached  a  dangerous  height. 

Business  corporations  large  and  small  and  business  concerns  of  individuals 
seek  to  protect  themselves  against  rising  costs,  whether  from  labour  costs  or 
government  taxes  of  various  kinds,  by  putting  them  into  the  price  the 
consumer  pays. 

The  extent  of  this  inflation  can  be  measured  in  another  way.  In  1950  our 
gross  national  production  reached  almost  eighteen  billion  dollars.  Measured 
in  terms  of  1939  dollars,  it  would  have  been  slightly  less  than  ten  billions. 
This  indicates  how  inflation  can  deceive  us  and  distort  the  perspective  of  our 
economy.  There  can  be  no  doubt  that  the  inflation  that  has  taken  place  in 
our  economy  in  recent  years  is  a  very  serious  thing.  A  rising  inflation  in  a 
country's  economy  is  like  a  deadly  unknown  virus  in  the  bloodstream  of  an 
individual.  When  inflationary  pressures  are  at  work  it  is  of  vital  importance 
that  Governments,  at  all  levels,  practice  the  most  rigid  economy  and  above  all 
avoid  going  further  into  debt.  There  is  little  point  in  their  urging  individual 
citizens  to  economize  if  they  do  not  themselves  set  a  good  example. 

Your  Committee  pays  a  compliment  to  the  Minister  of  Finance  for  the 
warning  he  gave  in  his  budget  speech  on  the  grave  dangers  that  are  lurking, 
unsuspected  by  the  vast  majority  of  Canadians,  in  these  inflationary  processes 
that  are  at  work.  The  white  paper  given  to  Parliament  at  the  time  the  budget 
speech  was  delivered  gave  a  vast  amount  of  very  useful  information  to  Parlia- 


A.D.  1951  21ST  JUNE  409 


ment.  Any  member  of  Parliament,  or  any  other  citizen  who  studies  it  can  get 
a  fair  knowledge  of  the  working  of  the  Canadian  economy.  Difficult  as  it  may 
be  for  the  people  in  a  democratic  society  to  interest  themselves  in  this  matter, 
a  clear  understanding  of  it  is  vital  to  the  maintenance  of  our  so-called  way  of 
life. 

In  his  budget  speech  the  Finance  Minister  indicated  his  expectation  that 
our  gross  national  product  in  the  present  fiscal  year  would  be  about  twenty 
billion  dollars.  This  should  give  a  net  national  income  of  at  least  sixteen 
billion  dollars.  The  information  given  your  Committee  indicates  that  expendi 
tures  of  all  governments,  Federal,  Provincial  and  Municipal  this  year  will  be  over 
five  billions.  In  other  words,  approximately  one-third  of  the  net  national  income 
of  all  Canadians  will  be  paid  to  their  governments  in  taxes.  Here  the  big  item 
of  increase  is  of  course  the  increased  defence  expenditures,  which,  in  the  state 
of  the  world  today,  cannot  be  avoided.  As  a  result  of  this  heavy  load  of 
taxation,  combined  with  the  high  standard  of  living  we  are  endeavouring  to 
maintain  as  a  people,  the  volume  of  savings  out  of  which  new  development 
must  take  place,  as  already  indicated,  is  shrinking  in  an  alarming  way.  The 
stern  necessity  rests  upon  governments  and  upon  individual  Canadian  citizens 
in  these  dangerous  days  through  which  we  are  passing  to  economize  in  their 
expenditures.  The  people  must  be  encouraged  to  build  up  their  savings.  The 
proposed  pension  legislation  that  everyone  appears  to  be  clamouring  for,  will 
probably  add  four  hundred  million  dollars  to  our  total  of  expenditures,  and 
the  greater  part  of  this,  for  many  years  to  come,  will  have  to  be  met  out  of 
current  production.  No  one  can  accurately  forecast  the  future,  but  we  do  know 
that  the  grim  depression  of  the  thirty's  was  set  in  motion  by  the  collapse  of  an 
inflationary  boom  present  in  the  world  for  the  previous  eight  or  ten  years. 
There  is  no  question  that  the  Canadian  economy  cannot  avoid  being  profoundly 
affected  by  what  happens  in  other  countries  and  especially  today  in  the  United 
States.  The  uncertainty  of  what  lies  ahead  is  the  strongest  possible  reason  to 
guard  against  building  an  edifice  of  fixed  expenditures  which,  if  dark  days 
should  come  upon  us,  our  economy  could  not  possibly  carry. 

It  is  important  that  the  Canadian  people  realize  that  inflation,  in  the  sense 
of  its  impact  upon  our  daily  living  and  the  uncertainty  and  fear  it  generates 
as  to  what  may  happen  in  the  future,  can  have  a  paralyzing  effect  not  only 
on  our  economy,  but  as  well  upon  the  steadiness  of  thinking  in  the  individual 
citizen,  that  is  the  mainspring  of  what  we  describe  as  our  democratic  way  of 
life.  We  need  a  clear  understanding  that  this  danger  if  allowed  to  proceed 
unchecked  will  bring  serious  and  grave  hardships  to  hundreds  of  thousands 
of  our  people.  It  thus  becomes  the  duty  of  every  citizen  to  do,  as  far  as  he  can, 
his  part  in  combating  it.  To  that  end  he  must  understand  that  an  increase  in 
our  savings  and  an  increase  in  production  of  goods  and  services  is  a  vitally 
important  matter. 

Most  human  beings  would  like  to  maintain  or  increase  their  standard  of 
living  by  working  fewer  hours  per  day,  or  week  or  month,  and  at  the  same 
time  increase  the  returns  they  get  for  their  contribution  to  our  society.  But  if 
an  individual  works  fewer  hours  per  week  and  does  not  produce  the  same 
volume  of  product  that  he  produced  working  longer  hours  per  week,  and  if  he 
gets  a  higher  monthly  return  for  this  reduced  volume  of  production,  then  without 
any  question  prices  will  tend  to  rise  and  thus  the  flames  of  inflation  are  fed 
and  grow.  And  if  any  section  of  our  community  increases  the  share  it  gets 
out  of  the  total  productive  effort  then  some  other  section  of  the  community 
has  of  necessity  to  take  less.  It  is  a  lamentable  fact  that  the  worthy  citizens 
who  tried  to  protect  their  future  needs  by  saving,  by  life  insurance  or  annuities, 
are  today  the  people  who  are  suffering  most  grievously,  for  the  simple  reason 
that  inflation  has  produced  a  condition  where  the  income  derived  from  savings 


410  THE  SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 


or  life  insurance  or  annuities  buys  little  more  than  half  of  the  things  it  would 
have  bought  twelve  years  ago.  Year  by  year  his  position  has  been  growing 
worse.  Suggestions  have  been  made  that  governments  can  control  this  by  taking 
full  and  ample  power  to  direct  and  supervise  the  day  to  day  living  of  the 
ordinary  citizens.  Russia  is  probably  the  supreme  example  today  of  this  kind 
of  government  control.  Here  criticism  of  the  government  is  forbidden.  The 
press  can  publish  only  what  the  government  ordains.  Freedom  of  speech, 
freedom  of  worship,  indeed  freedom  in  any  of  its  aspects,  disappears.  The  state, 
as  represented  in  the  few  people  who  govern  it,  becomes  the  all-powerful 
agent.  Initiative,  self-reliance  and  all  the  other  virtues  we  associate  with 
high  character  in  the  individual  disappears  and  the  human  family  in  such  a 
state  sinks  gradually  and  inexorably  to  lower  and  lower  levels,  spiritually  and 
materially. 

These  may  be  regarded  as  strong  words  and  not  appropriate  for  a  report 
of  this  kind,  but  your  Committee  feels  that  they  are  facts  that  should  be 
pondered  and  weighed  by  every  citizen.  Governments  of  course  have  their 
special  responsibilities.  They  are  the  ones  to  whom  people  look  for  leadership. 
The  people  also  have  their  responsibilities  and  the  most  important  is  that  they 
do  not  press  their  governments  into  unwise  policies  and  unwise  expenditures. 
Indeed,  they  have  another  responsibility,  and  that  is  through  the  agencies 
of  the  press  and  public  opinion  to  check  and  admonish  governments  when  they 
pursue  unwise  policies  or  unwise  expenditures. 

Your  Committee  suggests  that  the  Government  should  keep  to  the  lowest 
point  possible  all  capital  expenditures  of  every  kind  excepting  those  essential 
to  defence,  to  provide  the  minimum  of  housing  necessary  and  those  expenditures 
that  are  normally  directed  to  increasing  the  production  of  goods  and  services 
required  by  the  Canadian  people.  Where  expenditures  are  made  on  any  of 
these  items,  including  defence  spending,  efficiency  and  economy  consistent 
with  attaining  the  end  in  view  should  be  the  watchwords  guiding  them. 

Your  Committee  would  suggest  further  that  the  Federal  Government  as 
the  senior  government,  should  seek  the  co-operation  of  the  provincial  and 
municipal  governments  to  adopt  this  same  policy.  It  is  true  that  these 
governments  are  largely  sovereign  in  their  own  spheres  of  government,  but 
we  venture  to  say  that  their  assistance  should  be  sought  and,  in  as  large  a 
measure  as  possible,  secured. 

Your  Committee  concludes  its  report  with  this  observation.  In  its  judgment 
no  finer  body  of  citizens  exist  in  any  country  than  is  to  be  found  in  Canada. 
The  proof  lies  in  what  they  have  achieved  in  the  eighty  years  since  the 
scattered  colonies  that  then  existed  in  what  is  now  Canada  were  brought 
together  in  one  confederation.  In  this  eighty  odd  years  half  a  continent  has 
been  developed.  The  necessary  organs  of  government  have  been  created. 
Educational  opportunities  through  the  development  of  schools  and  universities 
have  marched  forward  with  the  needs  of  the  people.  Our  standard  of  living 
is  as  high  as  in  any  country  in  the  world,  measured  by  the  indices  that  measure 
a  standard  of  living.  No  country  in  the  world  provides  greater  opportunities 
to  the  young  and  daring.  The  virtues  of  self-reliance  and  initiative  and  sym 
pathy  and  forbearance,  and  a  sense  of  justice  and  fair  play  have  made  the 
Canadian  people  what  they  are  today.  One  of  the  supreme  responsibilities  of 
all  governments  is  to  exercise  wisely  their  power  and  influence  to  maintain  and 
further  develop  these  virtues,  for  the  character  of  a  nation  is  but  the  sum  total 
of  the  character  of  its  citizens.

granted. 

3.  The  Committee  recommend  that  the  Parliamentary  fees  paid  under  Rule

A.  W.  ROEBUCK,

The  Honourable  Senator  Aseltine,  Chairman  of  the  Standing  Committee  on 
Divorce,  presented  their  three  hundred  and  seventh  and  final  Report. 

The  same  was  then  read  by  the  Clerk,  as  follows:  — 

The  Standing  Committee  on  Divorce  beg  leave  to  make  their  three  hundred 
and  seventh  Report  as  follows: 

For  the  present  Session  339  petitions  for  Bills  of  Divorce  were  presented 
to  the  Senate  and  dealt  with  by  the  Standing  Committee  on  Divorce,  as 
follows:  — 

Petitions    heard    and    recommended    295 

Petitions  heard  and  rejected   

Petitions   withdrawn    

Petitions  not  proceeded  with  

Total     339 

Under  existing  divorce  rules  a  period  of  60  days  must  elapse  following  the 
service  of  the  petition  before  the  petitioner  can  be  heard.  The  36  petitions 
which  have  not  been  dealt  with  are  in  this  category,  the  60  days  period  not 
having  elapsed  and  the  petitions  therefore  not  being  read  for  a  hearing.  They 
will  likely  be  proceeded  with  at  the  next  session  of  Parliament. 


448  THE  SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 


Of  the  petitions  recommended  during  the  present  session  of  Parliament,  74 
were  by  husbands  and  221  were  by  wives. 

Of  the  petitions  recommended  4  were  from  petitioners  domiciled  in  the 
Province  of  Newfoundland  and  291  were  from  petitioners  domiciled  in  the 
Province  of  Quebec. 

The  Committee  held  44  meetings.  On  19  days  the  Committee  functioned  in 
two  sections. 

In  32  cases  the  Committee  recommended  that  part  of  the  Parliamentary  fees 
be  remitted. 

The  fees  paid  to  Parliament  for  Bills  of  Divorce  (heard  and  recommended) 
during  the  Session  of  1951  amounted  to  $58,690.00,  being  approximately 
$11,500.00  more  than  in  1950. 

Assuming  that  all  Bills  of  Divorce  recommended  by  the  Committee,  now  in 
various  stages  before  Parliament,  receive  Royal  Assent,  the  comparison  of 
dissolutions  of  marriage  granted  by  Parliament  in  the  last  ten  Sessions  is  as

A.D.  1951  25TH   JUNE  449 


Your  Committee  makes  the  same  recommendation  that  it  made  in  the 
1950  report.  It  regrets  that  Parliament  has  not  seen  fit  to  solve  the  problem 
of  Parliamentary  divorce  by  setting  up  suitable  courts  or  tribunals  before  which 
the  numerous  cases  from  Quebec  and  Newfoundland  can  be  heard.  It  is  to  be 
hoped  that  something  will  be  done  in  that  regard  in  the  near  future.

Chairman,  Senate  Standing  Committee  on  Divorce.

A.D.  1951  QTH  OCTOBER  487 


The  House  of  Commons  being  come. 


The  Right  Honourable  the  Deputy  Governor  General  was  pleased  to  close 
the  Fourth  Session  of  the  Twenty-first  Parliament  of  Canada,  with  the  following 
Speech:— 

Honourable  Members  of  the  Senate: 

Members  of  the  House  of  Commons: 

The  people  of  Canada,  in  common  with  His  Majesty's  subjects  elsewhere, 
were  deeply  concerned  that  the  state  of  the  King's  health  made  a  surgical 
operation  necessary,  and  they  rejoice  at  the  rapid  progress  of  the  King's  recovery. 

My  Ministers  are  gratified  that  the  world  situation  did  not  require  the 
resumption  of  the  Session  before  the  date  originally  set  when  you  concluded 
your  deliberations  in  June.  The  international  situation  continues  nevertheless 
to  give  constant  concern  to  the  government. 

In  Korea,  despite  prolonged  discussions,  it  has  not  yet  been  possible  to 
arrange  a  cease-fire  and  hostilities  are  continuing.  To  this  United  Nation's 
action  to  defeat  aggression,  our  Canadian  forces  are  making  an  effective 
contribution. 

Since  you  adjourned,  the  state  of  war  with  Germany  has  been  terminated 
by  proclamation,  and  normal  diplomatic  relations  have  been  established  with 
the  Federal  Republic  of  Germany.  A  treaty  of  peace  has  been  signed  with 
Japan  which  you  will  be  asked  to  approve  at  the  forthcoming  session. 

While  hostilities  have  been  confined  to  restricted  areas,  the  government 
is  convinced  that  general  peace  can  be  assured  only  by  the  continued  build-up 
of  the  combined  strength  of  the  free  nations. 

To  this  end,  My  Ministers  welcomed  the  holding  in  Ottawa  of  the  most 
recent  meeting  of  the  Council  of  the  North  Atlantic  Treaty  Organization. 
Certain  of  the  recommendations  of  the  Council  will  require  to  be  considered 
at  a  future  session. 

Arrangements  are  now  under  discussion  with  India  and  Pakistan  for  certain 
projects  to  be  financed  from  the  contribution  you  approved  to  the  Colombo 
Plan  for  Co-operative  Economic  Development  in  South  and  South  East  Asia. 

You  also  made  provision  for  a  Canadian  contribution  to  the  United  Nations 
relief  and  rehabilitation  programme  in  Korea. 

At  the  outset  of  the  session,  you  enacted  a  measure  to  vest  in  the  Governor 
in  Council  additional  powers  which  might  be  necessary  to  ensure  adequate 
defence  preparations  to  meet  the  emergency  arising  out  of  the  present  inter 
national  situation. 

The  legislation  to  establish  the  Department  of  Defence  Production  has 
been  implemented  and  the  new  department  is  in  full  operation. 

Agreements  are  being  worked  out  with  the  provincial  governments  to 
implement  the  measure  you  enacted  to  provide  for  federal  contributions  for 
the  payment  of  old  age  assistance  to  those  in  need  between  sixty-five  and 
seventy  years  of  age.  Registration  is  being  proceeded  with  for  universal 
contributory  pensions  to  persons  over  seventy  years  of  age  to  facilitate 
administration  when  the  necessary  legislation  has  been  enacted. 


488  THE  SENATE  15  GEORGE  VI 


You  also  enacted  a  separate  measure  respecting  allowances  for  blind 
persons;  as  well  as  several  measures  extending  the  benefits  of  the  Veterans 
Charter,  and  providing  for  an  increase  in  pensions  to  certain  groups  of  veterans 
and  their  dependents. 

You  authorized  the  provision  of  grants  to  universities  and  equivalent 
institutions  of  higher  learning. 

The  requirement  of  the  fiat  in  the  case  of  Petitions  of  Right  has  been 
abolished. 

The  Indian  Act  was  completely  revised  and  the  new  legislation  is  now 
in  operation.  The  Post  Office  Act  was  also  extensively  revised. 

Other  measures  were  enacted  respecting  grants  to  Municipalities;  the 
regulation  of  consumer  credit;  the  grading  of  dairy  products;  the  construction 
of  a  railway  from  Sherridon  to  Lynn  Lake  in  the  Province  of  Manitoba;  and 
the  bequests  of  Laurier  House  and  Kingsmere. 

Among  other  measures,  you  amended  the  Canadian  Citizenship  Act;  the 
Supreme  Court  Act;  the  Prairie  Farm  Rehabilitation  Act;  the  Federal  District 
Commission  Act;  the  Dominion  Elections  Act;  the  Judges  Act;  the  North 
west  Territories  Act;  the  Yukon  Act;  the  Central  Mortgage  and  Housing 
Corporation  Act;  the  National  Housing  Act;  the  Foreign  Exchange  Control 
Act;  the  Canadian  Wheat  Board  Act;  the  Emergency  Gold  Mining  Assistance 
Act;  and  the  Criminal  Code. 

Your  approval  was  given  to  agreements  between  Canada  and  France, 
and  Canada  and  Sweden  respecting  Income  Tax  and  to  a  convention  between 
Canada  and  France  respecting  Succession  duties. 

Members  of  the  House  of  Commons: 

I  thank  you  for  the  provision  you  have  made  for  the  public  services  and 
for  defence  obligations  on  a  scale  unprecedented  in  time  of  peace. 

Honourable  Members  of  the  Senate: 

Members  of  the  House  of  Commons: 

Our  people  will,  I  am  sure,  continue  to  pray  for  the  complete  restoration 
of  the  health  of  the  King  and  for  the  blessing  of  Divine  Providence  upon  our 
nation  and  the  forces  of  our  own  and  other  nations  who  are  striving  to  maintain 
the  rule  of  law  in  the  relations  between  nations. 


The  Honourable  the  Speaker  of  the  Senate  then  said:  — 
Honourable  Members  of  the  Senate: 

Members  of  the  House  of  Commons; 

It  is  the  will  and  pleasure  of  the  Honourable  the  Deputy  Governor  General 
that  this  Parliament  be  prorogued  until  a  later  hour  this  day,  to  be  here  holden; 
and  this  Parliament  is  prorogued  accordingly.
