Problems
Before

OTTAWA,
October
25.
An
order-in-council
setting
forth
to
the
Supreme
Court
of
Canada
certain
questions
relative
to
the
British
Columbia
Fisheries
which
will
come
before
the
court
next
month
have
been
made
public.
These
were
largely
the
result
of
action
taken
by
the
Sommerville
Cannery
Co.,
operating
at
Prince
Rupert
and
other
places
on
the
coast
who
were
refused
a
license
by
the
fisheries
department
for
their
floating
cannery
and
who
then
went
on
fishing
without
one.
They
were
sued
by
the
department
and
the
case
dismissed
as
being
without
the
jurisdiction
of
the
federal
gov-
ment.
There
are
three
questions
as
Iol-K

First:
In

rh
what
particular
or

or
to
what
extent
are
they
ultra
vires
of

Parliament
of
Canada?
Second:
If
said
provisions
be
ultra
vires,
has
the
minister
the
authority
to
Issue
a
Hoe

for
operation
of
a

to
make
the
license
subject
to
any
restriction,
particularly
as
to
the
plaoe
of
operation
of
any
such
cannery
In
B.C.?
Third:
Under
the
provision
of
special
fishery
regulations
for
the
province
of
B.C.
had
(a)
any,
British
subject
resident
In

or
(b)

or
