All the provinces except Ontario and Quebec previously had given up certain taxing rights to the dominion in return for annual flat grants. Now the other seven provinces were dissatistied with grants in lieu of taxes. he said. He described the $30,000,000 offer as an attempt on the part of the dos minion to lessen this dissatisfaction "The dominion had to find some® way of handing over money lo (fered to do the.same thing with these provinces without admitting |My.

Mr. Justice O'- Connor decided there was none. Back in 1784, some 1500 square miles of land along the Grand Riv- er in Ontario were deeded to the Indians by Royal Charter -- appre- ciation for the Indians' loyalty to King George III during the Ameri- can revolution. Some of the land wa. handed ov- er for cangl-building by Joseph Brant, Sachem of the Six Nations acting as a trustee for his fellows. Other land was flooded. Today's residents of Oshweken reserve, near Brantford, sought full compensation and inferest at per cent, Because Brant's action oc- curred more than 100 vears ago, the interest was the tigger part of the $1,289,000 suit. Since 1860 the Indians "have made attempts to get thir case in- to court, but not until 1943 did they get a fiat from the Gowerno General permitting them sue the crown by petition of right. It was the case of wards of the crown seeking permissiony to sue their guardian. Last January the Exchequer Court heard an argument on points of law to decide whether there should be an actual the case, five to trial of that breach involved in Jo- ction. They claimed that the Upper Canada government was involved, and that its respon- sibility now is held by the govern- ment of the Dominion of Canada. The crown, through the Justice Department, claimed the Act of Union of 1841 did not provide that of Canada should take over liabilities of Upper and Lower Canada, which it com- bined. It said, too that the Statute of Limitations had outlawed the Tn- ,dians' claim, and that the action could have been started about 1886. By Friday's decision, the crowu's argument was sustained. : The century-old claim of the Six Nations has been set aside. The $1,- 289,000 they claimed will noi be paid. 1 Big Day Monday At Victory Park | An evening of fun and entertain- ment has been arranged by the Victory Park committee for Monday.
