erty-stricken
is
the
word
for
it.
That
is
what
it
is.
,
The
fact
of
the
matter,
which
we
might
as
well
face,
is
that,
under
the
present
restrictions,
there
is
no
way
of
getting
these
things.
We
cannot
borrow
under
the
obligations
of
our
special

"
Act
without
special
permission.
We
cannot
finance
our
requirements
out
o
four
present
income
which
cannot
be
increased
because
taxes
are
at
the
breaking
ppint
as
far
as
the
capacity
of
the
taxpayers
;
to
pay
themselves
is
concerned
and,
anyway,
the
difference
between
the
present
mill
rate
and
its
legal
limit
is
so
narrow
as
to
be
inconsequental.
So
what
is
the
answer?
The.
answer,
of
course,
if
Prince
Rupert
and
'other
'rnunicipalities
are
not
to
go
down
through
sheer
inability
to
meet
their
vital
requirements,
is
action
without
further
delay
by
the
province
action
which
has
often
been
recommended
by
royal
commission
after
royal
commission
but
which
has
ever
"been
deferred.
Other,
cities
are
urging
this
immediate
action
.
and
ha,ve
put
up
strong
cases.
Possibly,
none
are
worse
off
or
more
badly
in
need
of
a
new
deal
from
the
government
than
is
Prince
Rupert.
What
goes
for
Victoria,
it
might
be
said,
goes
also
for
Prince
Rupert
and
here
is
what
the
Victoria
Colonist
says:
"lf

this

that
its

rate
is

sight
of
the
legal
limit,
and
that
all

the

Increase
in
Its
revenues
is
being
taken

the
real
revenues
deriving
'.from
the
growth
of
population
in
British
Columbia,
a
population
which
has
centred
in
the
cities.
"If.
the
government
had
not
withdrawn
the
former
old-time
grairts
the
municipalities
would
be
$5,000,000
better
off
today
on
a
yearly
basis;
but
meanwhile
the
province's
own
revenues
have
gone
up
very
sharply,
as
the
last
budget
address
indicated.
In
that,
the
treasury
estimated
receipts
of
$58,888,930
for
the
current
fiscal
year
closing
on
March
21
next;
referred

previous:?;
liquor
profits
of
$11,600,000;
gasoline
taxes
at
$3,495,000;
and
other
provincial
revenues
on
a
mounting
plane.
Meanwhile,
through
accumulated
revenue
surpluses,
the
province
had
pushed
its
spending
above
$50,000,000
a
year
and
one
official
reference
said
this
year
it
might
be
$90,000,000.
"Meanwhile,
it
remains
a
fact
that
every
dollar
the
province
takes
from
the

for
example,
;

one

themselves.

position
has

point
where

to
be

about
it.
