This new de- parture is announced in correspond. ence between Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of Labor, and Premier Fer- guson, and between Premier Bracken, Manitoba, and Right Hon, W. L. Mac kenzle King. On January 26 Premier Ferguson wrote, Hon. Peter Heenan, that the Townkhip of Etobicoke excess cost of work @ndertaken. to relieve unemploy- mapfef He asked it it was the inten- ti @ Federal Government to co- i formerly in this cost, the provines, municipality and Federal Governmefit each paying one-third. Hon. Péter Heenan replied that at the Dominion-Provincial conference, the provincial representatives, except from Manitoba, had taken the position that they did' not. wish the Dominion Government to contribute to this, or any scheme which was not within the jurisdiction of the Dominion. He also notes, "press dispatches say you have already notified municipalities that this was an obligation on the munici- palities and that the contributions in previous years was only because of the great distress due to the general chaotic upheaval after the war, Due to Immigration. In his communication to the Federal Prime Minister, Premier Bracken of Manitoba declares there is consider able unemployment in Manitoba, and mainly due to immigration. As tha Federal Government controls immi- gration he asks that they assist in solving the unemployment situation due to this cause. In his reply, Premier King points out that the Maritime Provinces ree : celve no immigration, and naturally would object to paying for unemploy« ment of immigrants in other pro- vinces. He also point to the position taken by all the provinces, but Mani toba, at the Dominion-Provineial coi ference and contends that there is no more obligation on the Federal Gov- ernment to give grants to solve the unemployment problem than to as sist the provinces in any other way.
