House of Assembly: Vol1 - MONDAY JUNE 24 1912

MONDAY, June 24th, 1912. Mr. SPEAKER took the chair and read prayers at 2 p.m. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE. Mr. SPEAKER

stated that, in order to facilitate the work of the House, he had authorised the Clerk to deliver this morning to the Honourable the Senate messages, which had already been approved by this House, transmitting the Railway and Harbours Capital and Betterment Works Additional Appropriation (1910-12) Bill and the Railways and Harbours Service Bill, for the concurrence of the Honourable the Senate.

Mr. Speaker’s action was confirmed.

 LAID ON TABLE. The MINISTER OF FINANCE:

Regulations for administration and investment of South African Constabulary Benevolent Fund and award of grants therefrom to members of late South African Constabulary.

 ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE BILL.
SENATE’S AMENDMENTS. Mr. SPEAKER

read the following message to the Senate:

The House of Assembly transmits to the Senate the Bill to make further provision relating to the Administration of Justice passed by the Senate in which the House of Assembly made certain amendments, to which amendments the Senate has concurred with the exception of the amendment (a new clause 16) to which the Senate has agreed with a further amendment, viz.: The deletion in lines 65 and 66, page 12, of the words “necessarily incidental to the determination of the appeal” and the substitution therefor of the following words: “Provided that the application aforesaid may be heard and determined by the Chief Justice or an ordinary Judge of Appeal of the said division, and that during the tenure of office of the present Chief Justice the application may be heard and determined elsewhere than at Bloemfontein: Provided further that this section shall not apply to any case the record whereof has, at the commencement of this Act, been filed with the Registrar of the said division,” in which further amendment the House of Assembly has concurred, and endorsement made in the copy herewith sent.

This was approved of.

 PUBLIC ACCOUNTS COMMITTEE. The MINISTER OF FINANCE

moved that the reports be now considered.

Agreed to.

 The MINISTER OF FINANCE

moved: (1) That paragraphs (1), (2), (9), (22), (28), and (29) of Part I. of the Fourth Report be adopted, and that the remaining paragraphs of Part I. and Part III. be referred to the Government for consideration; (2) that the Sixth Report be adopted; and (3) that paragraphs (3), (5), (12), (27), (35), and (40) of the Seventh Report be adopted, and that the remaining paragraphs of this report be referred to the Government for consideration.

 Mr. C. T. M. WILCOCKS (Fauresmith)

seconded.

 Sir E. H. WALTON (Port Elizabeth, Central)

said that the whole of the paragraphs were approved by the late Minister of Finance (Mr. Hull), who was present at the Select Committee when these matters were discussed, and who agreed to the committee’s findings. He (Sir Edgar) supposed the reason that the present Minister of Finance (General Smuts) had for making a selection was that there were certain other paragraphs with which his Department was not in entire accord. If the House adopted the resolutions as a whole, the Minister, if he found that in certain particulars some of the resolutions were inconvenient and difficult to work, could place them on one side and report the matter to Parliament next session. The present motion was bound to open the way to a very wide discussion. One of the paragraphs of the report referred to the necessity of a valuation being made of railway rolling stock. Why should that recommendation not be adopted? (Hear, hear.) Another resolution was in regard to certain items paid into revenue which did not belong to revenue but to capital, and on these points the committee and the late Minister of Finance were in agreement. Then there was the matter of the Rhodes Estate. The late Mr. Rhodes left a certain sum for the maintenance of the house and grounds. Government, however, asked that the sum might be capitalised, and the late Minister of Finance allowed the lump sum to go into revenue to which it did not belong. It was one of those matters in starting Union which was dealt with without full consideration. These sums should go back to capital, and he hoped the Minister would amend his resolution or accept an amendment that all the reports be adopted, which was the course they followed in the Cape Colony, and which did not cause any inconvenience. He moved to omit all the words after “that” and to substitute “the fourth, sixth, and seventh reports be adopted.”

 Mr. J. W. JAGGER (Cape Town, Central)

seconded.

 Mr. T. ORR (Pietermaritzburg, North)

said he hoped the House would not follow the course suggested by the hon. member for Port Elizabeth, Central. The Public Accounts Committee had made certain recommendations based on facts presented to it. With some of these recommendations the Government undoubtedly agreed; there was no, question of policy about them; it was purely a question of accounts, and he thought the House would have no difficulty in adopting the suggestion of the Minister of Finance. As regards the other paragraphs, the Government would necessarily have to consider them. It would have to consider these paragraphs during the recess, and bring up its considered opinion next session. The evidence taken by the Public Accounts Committee might have to be varied and reconsidered by the Government, and it would not be wise on the part of this House to adopt the recommendations of the Public Accounts Committee en bloc without further consideration. He thought the course the Minister had taken was a wise one. He should be very sorry if the usefulness of the Public Accounts Committee were to be endangered by the House adopting the report from that committee without considering every paragraph. The House might run the danger of getting into conflict with the Government, and an undesirable situation might be created. They might have party politics brought into these matters of public accounts, and having had some experience, both last session and this session, of the work of the Public Accounts Committee, he could say that that committee had been entirely free from any suspicion of party politics in its work. It had reported without fear and without favour of any kind, and he appealed to the House not to adopt rashly resolutions which the Government had not yet had time fully to consider. The House should adopt the recommendations of which the Government approved, and should wait for the Government’s decision next year in regard to the other recommendations in the Public Accounts Committee.

 *Mr. J. X. MERRIMAN (Victoria West)

said that the hon. member who had just spoken was far more concerned with the pleasure and wishes of the Government of the day than he was with the rights of Parliament and the welfare of the country. All he (Mr. Merriman) could say was that if they were going to do what had been suggested they had better not have any Public Accounts Committee at all. It would be better to accept the Government’s statement of the finances of the country, good or bad, and do nothing, because that would be the most agreeable thing to do. He did not think that that was right. They were told that the Government had had no time to consider the recommendations contained in these reports. He wished to point out, however, that they had had 18 days, and they had had a member of the Government on the committee, and he might add that he was a very efficient member and was very reasonable. He did not make an apology as the last two hon. members had done in speaking on this matter, because if there were one thing which was important to this country and important to the House it was the state of the public accounts. That was the essence of Parliament—to look after the finances. They might leave such trifles as immigration to the Government, but in dealing with public accounts there ought to be no parties whatever. All of them should be anxious to see that the finances of the country were properly administered. Of course it was for the Government to say what amount should be submitted to this House and how they were going to provide for it, but when this dealt with public accounts, as to the spending of the authorised sums, it was in the interests of everybody in the House to see that they were carefully and properly administered in accordance with law and custom—the unwritten law, as well as the written. That was what they wished to do. He would like to say one or two words about the amendment moved by his hon. friend the member for Port Elizabeth, Central. He thought on the whole it would be the best course to adopt. He could not understand this House dividing on a matter like this. The Public Accounts Committee had sat for 60 days. They had put in 120 hours of good, solid work into these reports, and if they were going to tear up these reports—

 Mr. T. ORR (Maritzburg, North):

No.

 *Mr. J. X. MERRIMAN (Victoria West):

well, my hon. friend’s speech goes for nothing.

 Mr. T. ORR (Pietermaritzburg, North):

It does not.

 *Mr. J. X. MERRIMAN (Victoria West):

Yes, it does. I know a good deal more about Parliament than the hon. member does. (Laughter.) If it is left to the Government there will be precious little done. They will take steps. That is true, but I will tell you what sort of steps they will be. They will be the goose step or double shuffle. Proceeding, he said that Parliament ought to support the Public Accounts Committee. He wished to draw particular attention to one clause which had been omitted from the resolutions of the Treasurer, and that was paragraph 9 of the seventh report, to which the hon. member for Port Elizabeth, Central, had also called attention. That paragraph drew attention to certain amounts which were capital sums in the nature of gifts and loan moneys, and the committee very properly recommended—and he did not think anybody in the House would say it was not right—that these sums should be placed not in the current revenue of the year, to which they did not properly belong, but in the hands of the Commissioners of Public Debt to go towards the reduction of debt. Surely they were not going to absorb the amounts mentioned in that paragraph in the current revenue of the year!

Thus they would swell their revenue abnormally by doing these things. They had thus created a fund which did not properly belong to revenue. In the case of the bewaarplaatsen they were safeguarded by an Act of the Transvaal, and therefore this was put into a special fund. These other things were not so safeguarded, and he wanted to point out how deleterious it was to have these things in current revenue. Seeing a large revenue, people could not be blamed if they kept up tile expenditure. If the revenue was large, they said here is the money, and so they went on swelling the expenditure to its present gigantic limits. Then when times got bad they would have the arguments that they had got their Civil servants, and they had made a contract with them, and they had to tax the people to keep them. He would like if he might be allowed to refer to the report generally and he regretted very much indeed that the select Committee was not larger He did not think that people would have been so insensible to these proceedings if they had sat upon the committee and had become acquainted with the business of the country. It had always been his idea, as far as possible, to put men from the back veld—if he might call them that—upon this committee, because they came away with a very different idea of how the business of the country was being conducted. In several large blocks of expenditure it was impossible for the committee to go into them in the absence of proper reports from the Departments. The House was just as much in the dark as they were. Take these Agricultural Schools, did anybody know what they were doing? They were all in the same position. There were no proper accounts, but that was not the fault of the committee or the House, it was the fault of the Department. Again, they did not know, for instance, anything about the Land Settlement Scheme. Had it succeeded—they did not know. How much did it cost? All these things they did not know, but that was the fault of the Administration. Proceeding, the right hon. member said that there were three important subjects which, to his mind, had inflicted a grievous wrong upon the credit of the country. The first was the bewaarplaatsen and the proposal to redeem perpetual annuities at par, and also the proposal to tax bearer shares. Nobody could actually tell how much damage these three things had done the country. Financial people had told him that money was getting tight, and capital was not coming into the country as it formerly had done. (Hon. members: Why?) Because people were frightened. They all said that the name of South Africa does not stand high upon the London market. First of all, because of the predatory instincts of the Government. There was a suggestion of taking a half of the bewaarplaatsen and putting it to the credit of the State. There was a proposal by the Treasury also to take up at par these perpetual annuities on which people had paid high premiums. That applied more to this country than to England, but the loose way in which they were prepared to deal with these things damaged our credit. (Hear, hear.) He need not allude to the proposal to tax bearer shares, because they knew what an effect that had upon the securities of this country and the feeling that people had towards investing money in. South Africa. Unless these things were brought home to the Government they might go on with their heads in the bush like the ostrich, believing that the whole world was admiring their plumes. (Laughter.) Which they were not. All these things were brought to the notice of the Government; they ought to have been settled this session, and when the Minister of Finance came to raise his loan he would find that it was a misfortune that they were not settled. He hoped hon. members would see that it was in the interests of the country that the reports of this committee should be adopted. (Hear, hear.)

 Mr. J. W. JAGGER (Cape Town, Central)

said he would like to support the motion of the hon. member for Port Elizabeth that these reports should be adopted. He could not understand the attitude of the hon. member for Pietermaritzburg, because he understood from the hon. member that there was no objection to the adoption of the paragraphs of the report where no policy was involved. There were paragraphs which had been proposed for adoption which did involve a policy, while some of the paragraphs which had not been proposed did not involve any policy. He referred to paragraph 1 of the fourth report dealing with the capital account of the railways. He urged that even if this did involve a policy the Government were represented on the Public Accounts Committee and represented by no less a person than the Minister of Finance. The Minister of Finance was a party to all these recommendations.

 M. T. ORR (Pietermaritzburg, North):

Not everyone.

 Mr. JAGGER:

Well, there may be one, but only one that I am aware of. I don’t know how there can be the slightest objection, as far as that is concerned. There is nothing involved in most of these reports except this, of endeavouring to check waste wherever it occurs and endeavouring to get value for money and also endeavouring to keep the Government on right lines. In the fourth report, it was mentioned that, as regarded an amount of £90,000, the committee were of opinion that that could really have been better paid to renewals funds. It had been paid to revenue. Perhaps, with the few exceptions he had named, he did not see that it was a matter of policy; it was a matter of sound lines. There was no policy as regarded expenditure. His hon. friend had said that if they referred these matters to the Government, they could have a report brought up on each paragraph next year. It was not a report that they wanted; it was action they wanted upon these recommendations. Another argument brought by his hon. friend was that he wanted to maintain the influence of the Public Accounts Committee. All he could say was that he had sat for a good many years on the Public Accounts Committee of the Cape Colony, and the influence of that committee was never weakened in any shape or form. He would like to point out that this Public Accounts Committee was really the only committee by which this House could keep any control over the expenditure. The only thing they could do was, as far as possible, to prevent waste, and this was done largely because, when a matter of waste was brought to the attention of the Public Accounts Committee by a report of the Auditor General, the official who was responsible for that was brought before the Public Accounts Committee, and he had to offer an explanation. That exercised a very strong preventive power, and it saw that the best value was got for the country’s money. This was the only way in which the House could exercise any control at all over public expenditure. If the House wished to maintain the control which was the only one Parliament had—for the passing of the Estimates did not give any control—and to see that there was no waste, and that the money was devoted to the purpose for which it was intended, the House should strongly support the committee, and adopt the reports as a whole. Then the reports would become Orders of the House. Proceeding, Mr. Jagger said that no proposition had been brought before the House by Government in regard to the Cape Perpetual Annuities. A good deal of loss was being suffered by private people through the Government’s inactivity in this matter. (Hear, hear.) Government was to blame for not having brought the subject before Parliament.

 CAPE PERPETUAL ANNUITIES. *Mr. H. E. S. FREMANTLE (Uitenhage)

regretted Mr. Merriman’s reflection on the credit of the Union. According to the latest information, our stocks stood at the head of Colonial stocks. This matter had been brought up by the hon. member for George (Mr. Currey), and he (Mr. Fremantle) did not think the hon. member’s figures were correct. As to the Cape Perpetual Annuities, the term was taken from England, and if they went to England they would have a perfectly clear statement of the meaning of the term “perpetual annuity,” and the hon. member (Mr. Fremantle) quoted Adam Smith to show that the Government could redeem them at par if it wished. It had always been agreed in England, he continued, that Government could redeem its perpetual annuities.

 Mr. J. W. JAGGER (Gape Town, Central):

That view has not been held here.

 *Mr. FREMANTLE:

Because the term “perpetual annuity” has not been properly understood here. Continuing, Mr. Fremantle said that the matter involved the sum of £20,000 a year, and it was very desirable that that sum should not be wasted. In England, the interest on Government securities had been reduced by conversion schemes at various times from 1727 onwards, immediately after the debt had been consolidated and the perpetual annuities established. There could be no question that the Union Government had an absolute right to redeem the Cape Perpetual Annuities at par, but a wrong impression had been given by the Cape Sinking Fund Commissioners, who, when our 3½ per cent. stood at 115 and a Cape 3 per cent. loan was actually floated at a premium, paid premiums of 50 for our own 5 per cent. annuities. This was a gross blunder, but it was the only ground for objection to the immediate redemption of these annuities at par, and the country was being asked to pay a large sum in consequence of a blunder which had been made in the Cape—a blunder made by everyone concerned in Cape finance. The original blunder was made by Sir Gordon Sprigg, and was followed by successive Treasurers, and everyone connected with the public accounts of the Cape ought to share the blame in this matter. All of them who had been on the Public Accounts Committee of the Cape had a share of the responsibility in this matter. The sum represented by these perpetual annuities was one and a half millions, and though much of this was held by the Treasury, it was held in trust, and the extra sum paid in interest on these annuities was lost to the Treasury. Now it was suggested that the Treasury could only redeem at the market price, which was about double what the real value was in 1898; in other words, the Union taxpayer was asked to pay something like three quarters of a million entirely owing to mistakes that were made by Cape financiers.

Every year that we continued paying these annuities meant paying £20,000 in commemoration of the mistakes of Treasurers and public financiers in the Cape in the past. It did seem to him that his hon. friend (the Minister of Finance) would do well to put an end to this matter at the earliest possible moment. It was ridiculous to say that the credit of the Union would suffer by carrying out a financial transaction, which had been carried out repeatedly by authorities in England, and the Minister would be wise to fix a term of years—he thought five years would be a fair period—after which the Government should redeem this Cape perpetual stock at par. He hoped that that was the course his hon. friend (the Minister) would adopt, because he thought it was not right that three quarters of a million should be thrown away in consequence of not reading history and not taking legal opinion on the matter. With regard to the rest, he hoped that the Minister would realise that the work of the Public Accounts Committee was of assistance to him, because, after all, it was his business as Minister of Finance to keep down expenditure as much as possible, and the Public Accounts Committee was calculated to strengthen his hands. The whole question was a question of public control of public finances or no public control of public finances. As far as he could see, the Minister came into the House and put forward his proposal, which was not based on any principle at all, and it seemed to be weakening the control of the Public Accounts Commitee and also of Parliament in regard to expenditure. There was no sort of principle in the selection which the Minister had made of the items in the reports to be adopted by the House. It appeared to him that the Minister put his hand into a bag and took out what came to hand, and he had been particularly unfortunate. The sixth item in the seventh report pointed out that most grave misconduct had been perpetrated by some members of the public service, who had taken revenue which came into their possession and used it for other purposes without any authority whatever. Yet the Minister did not propose to adopt this section of the report. In this matter the Minister was fighting against himself. This was an old struggle; it had gone on for over a century in England, to prevent this very thing being done and when the Public Accounts Commtitee proposed to strengthen the hands of the Minister, the latter struck the weapon out of his own hand. He referred to the eighth paragraph of the fourth report, which, he said, had to do with railways, and where very much the same thing was being done. Again, it was an echo of the old contest, and the Minister wanted to disarm himself and go without the authority of the House. He was sure that the Minister would very soon wish that he had the authority of the House to carry on this struggle which every Minister of Finance had had to fight, not only in this country but in other countries. He wished to remind his hon. friend the Minister of what was said in 1907 by the present Prime Minister of England, who was a distinguished Chancellor of the Exchequer. Mr. Asquith on that occasion said that on behalf of the Treasury he recognised the admirable assistance which the Treasury received in its control over the other departments of the State from the Public Accounts Committee. He hoped that the Minister would maintain an attitude of friendliness towards the Public Accounts Committee. It did seem to him a most lamentable thing that there should be any difference of opinion between the great bulk of the Public Accounts Committee—he would say all the committee, with the exception of the hon. member for Pietermaritzburg, North, who spoke as an auditor, and not as a member of Parliament—and the Minister of Finance, because, let him say that at the present time, owing to various events, a feeling was spreading in the country that his hon. friend (the Minister of Finance) and his colleagues were not going on sound lines in regard to finance. There was a feeling that the Government did not realise the importance, the essential importance of finance, and that the public departments, especially the Department of Railways, were being conducted in a happy go lucky manner. If they looked at these reports they would see there was an enormous amount of wasteful and unsound practices in regard to public finance, and was it wise on the part of the Minister or was it wise in the interests of the country that the Minister should set up an antagonism between himself and the committee and that he should let it go forth to the country that sound finance was on the one side and the Government and its whips were on the other side? He considered that they should try to check the illegalities that had been committed in the past, and stop leakages of public money, which must ensue in consequence of these illegalities, at a time which was absolutely critical from the financial point of view in the interests of the Government, and also in the interests of the country.

 The MINISTER OF RAILWAYS AND HARBOURS

said that he wished to say a few words in regard to the railway position. He did not think that anyone would question the good work of the Public Accounts Committee, but, of course, that committee was not infallible. He recognised the importance of the Public Accounts Committee. In the old Cape Parliament he supported his old friend (Mr. Merriman), and he thought that his friend had the support of the hon. member for Port Elizabeth, Central, in establishing the Public Accounts Committee. During the time it was in force in the Cape, it worked for nothing but good, and he was sure it was doing so here also. He was not sure, however, that it had all the information before it, or all the information obtainable dealing with the many matters that arose. For instance, when the report of the Public Accounts Committee came up dealing more especially with the railways, he immediately saw the General Manager on the subject, and told him that, as far as it was possible, he must give effect to the recommendations of the committee. The General Manager said that it was not practicable to carry out all the recommendations. That was the reply he received. He (the Minister) told him that he must carry out all the recommendations he could, and that he must advise him as to those recommendations which were impracticable. It was then, and it was now, his intention to bring it before the Railway Board, to see if any further recommendations could be carried out. That was the position so far as the railways were concerned, and with all due respect to the recommendations of the Select Committee on Public Accounts he could conceive it quite possible for the committee to make recommendations in regard to railway matters which it would be very difficult to carry out. And what would be the position if these recommendations were not carried out? He had already explained his willingness to do so, and that he had given instructions to have them carried out as far as possible. What would be the position? He would be told next session that he (the Minister of Railways) was defying Parliament. He had to choose between the railway interests, which, after all, were the public interests. He was as anxious as anybody else to put a check upon public expenditure. He did not ask them to adopt a long series of resolutions. He was told by the General Manager that these resolutions were not practicable, and he hoped for this reason that these reports would be sent to the Government for consideration. In the old Cape Parliament he knew one occasion, at least, where the reports of the Public Accounts Committee got very scant consideration indeed. When these reports came in to the House they were practically a dead letter. He believed that the best interests of the case could have been met if these reports had been referred to the Government for consideration. He regretted very much to hear that the credit of the country had seemed to suffer of late. He would not say anything about the bewaarplaatsen, but he could not understand how the credit of the country could suffer on that account seeing that it was still an open question. He quite understood—although some people were rather too fond of referring to the credit of the country—that the credit of the country was a very tender plant, and they must be careful not to harm it in any way. The credit of the Union, he believed, stood very high to day, and they would do their best to maintain it.

 Mr. P. DUNCAN (Fordsburg)

said: Nobody has spoken so strongly upon the effect of the action of the Government upon the country as the right hon. member for Victoria West. He did not quite know how the bewaarplaatsen question could affect the credit of the country, seeing that it was still an open question. It was the action of the late Treasurer, however, which had created a feeling of uncertainty, and this affected the credit of the country, and the Government were at fault for not coming down to Parliament with some scheme of settling this question once and for all. It would be better if Government would not ask Parliament to adopt these resolutions. It would be much better not to adopt them at all, but to refer them to the Government for consideration. He would move, therefore, that this be done.

 Mr. C. L. BOTHA (Bloemfontein)

seconded the further amendment.

 The MINISTER OF FINANCE

said he differentiated between certain of the recommendations of the Public Accounts Committee. So far as he could give attention to this very large body of resolutions, he found that they affected various departments. They affected the Railway Administration. For instance, resolution 16 stated that the due inspection of the permanent way rested upon the Engineer-in-chief. Here the committee had laid a specific duty upon the Enigneer-in-chief. Will House should know how this would affect the general administration. Before the House could adopt the resolution he thought the Railway Department Administration should be consulted to see whether it was practicable. (Hear, hear.) That was the only reason for differentiating between one body of recommendations and another. Some of them seemed to be quite feasible. With regard to others it seemed to him to be quite necessary that they should consult the departments about them, and afterwards, next session, report to the House as to these recommendations. He could quite well see that it seemed an invidious distinction to pass certain recommendations and to allow others to stand over for the consideration of the Government. For that reason he would agree to the amendment moved by his hon. friend (Mr. Duncan).

He was sorry that his right hon. friend (Mr. Merriman) spoke so strongly on this matter. (Ministerial cheers.) He could not think that these reports really justified so much heat. He agreed fully that the Public Accounts Committee was the most important and useful committee they had in that House, and that the activities of that committee ought to be a very powerful stimulus towards stopping wasteful expenditure and keeping proper control over the expenditure of the country’s finances, but he hoped that some of the speeches which had been made there that day would not create the impression that the Public Accounts Committee was being used as an engine of attack upon the Government. (Hear, hear.) He was sure that that was not the object with which certain speeches had been made there, but if that impression were to gather strength he was sure that his hon. friend opposite would be correct in his idea that the influence of this committee would be seriously undermined. He was sure that the Public Accounts Committee had only one object, and that was to strengthen the hands of the Government and Parliament in keeping strict control of the finances of the country, and he did hope that this importation of heat would not lead to the impression that there were other objects, and that these remarks were made in order to attack the Government. He did not think the right hon. gentleman was correct in attributing all these things to the Government. He thought the attitude of the Government showed how cautiously the Government worked when it was on very dangerous ground. (Hear hear.)

No doubt, as he said on a former occasion, it would be necessary for them to take action at a very early date on these two important matters, the bewaarplaatsen and perpetual annuities. His right hon. friend was absent that night when in Committee of Supply he (General Smuts) said that he thought the proper course in regard to perpetual annuities would be for the Government to submit the action which it proposed to take to the House. It was a complicated and difficult business. On the one hand, they had what seemed to be a clear legal opinion, and on the other they had a long course of action which had been adopted by their predecessors in regard to this very stock. (Hear, hear.) Under these circumstances, he thought that the Government should not be influenced by predatory instincts, or any other instincts but those of caution and good public policy (Hear, hear.)

Take the bewaarplaatsen. His right hon. friend would see that no change had come over the scene in regard to this vexed question. The truth was that the bewaarplaatsen question stood to-day exactly where it stood in 1898, many, many years ago. No change had been made except the rather forcible speech which was made by his predecessor during the discussion on the Budget; otherwise, absolutely no change had come over the situation.

 Mr. P. DUNCAN (Fordsburg):

You have broken the Jaw.

 The MINISTER OF FINANCE:

No law has been broken. About the special account—Oh, well, he knows perfectly well that my predecessor adopted the action he did acting under a clause in the South Africa Act. On the one hand you have made a provision in the Gold Law of the Transvaal, passed in 1908. On the other hand you have a provision in the South Africa Act, which provides that all revenues, from whatever source accruing, should be taken into the Consolidated Revenue Fund. Under the ordinary interpretation of that clause my hon. friend thought that these moneys should be paid into the Consolidated Revenue Fund, and it was only later on when the question was considered more carefully, that they were put to a separate account. But no law has been broken. I will not pursue that, only I will say this, that this very thorny question of the bewaarplaatsen will come up for settlement very early next session. We are now forced to a settlement, because, as a matter of fact, part of these bewaarplaatsen moneys, so far as they affect the revenue of this year, were proposed originally by my predecessor to be taken into revenue for tins year. (Hear, hear.) Now we have had to put them into a separate account, and the position of that account will have to be finally settled. Action will have to be taken, and very early next session the whole question of the bewaarplaatsen will have to be fought out, only I hope it will be fought out entirely on the merits, and not that my right hon. friend or other members will be influenced by the idea that the Government has any predatory instincts in this matter. I hope that the House will do the right thing and the proper thing next year when they come by settle this question of the bewaarplaatsen. (Hear, hear.) I do not think it is necessary to say anything more.

 PERPETUAL ANNUITIES. *Mr. J. X. MERRIMAN (Victoria West)

said that in the City of London, as chairman of a company, his hon. friend (the Minister of Finance) would be invaluable. (Laughter.) His proper sphere would be at those famous meetings in the Cannon-street Hotel. He only wished to say that they were not discussing, neither did he intend to discuss, the question of the rights and wrongs of the perpetual annuity business. He only wanted to point out that the non-settlement of it was creating a very grave amount of disturbance in this country. There were two sides to the question, there were plenty of authorities they could bring up to show that “perpetual” meant perpetual—authorities that were clear on that subject. One was tempted to do so and point out that when Mr. Goschen changed the 3 per cents, he gave everybody the opportunity to come in and even paid them out as cash. The amount really involved in this matter was practically a sum of £7,500 a year. Half the stock belonged to the Government. All that was involved which was creating this uneasiness and distrust was £7,500 a year. The other points raised it would not be right for him to go into, as the Minister had already spoken but he wanted to say this, that he was not alluding to how our stocks stood in the market, but to the distrust of this country which had been aroused and which was preventing the inflow of capital into South Africa at the present time. He had that on good authority.

 The MINISTER OF FINANCE

said he would withdraw his original motion.

 Sir E. H. WALTON (Port Elizabeth, Central)

said that he was going to say something in regard to the Minister’s remarks, but he agreed that they ought to treat the whole of this report on one basis. He saw no reason why the report should not be adopted, and he could not congratulate the Minister in regard to his attitude on this question of the Engineer-in-Chief and the inspection of the permanent way. If the Engineer-in-Chief were not going to be responsible for the inspection of the permanent way, who was? This resolution did not say that the Engineer-in-Chief should go round and inspect himself. However, he would withdraw his amendment in favour of that of his hon. friend (Mr. Duncan).

 Mr. H. M. MEYLER (Weenen)

said he understood that some dissatisfaction had been caused in reference to his remarks as to the connection of Mr. Steyn with the purchase of farms by the Government in the Free State. He wanted to say that he not only accepted the statement made by Mr. Steyn, but he was prepared to withdraw any implication he could have made. (Hear, hear.)

The amendment to refer the whole of the reports to the Government for consideration was treated as the main question and agreed to.

 RAILWAYS AND HARBOURS SERVICE BILL.
SENATE’S AMENDMENTS. Mr. SPEAKER

submitted a message from the Senate transmitting the Railways and. Harbours Service Bill, with certain amendments, in which they asked the concurrence of this House.

The amendments were considered forth with and agreed to.

 LAID ON TABLE. The MINISTER OF NATIVE AFFAIRS:

Proclamation No. 97 of 1912 extending Act No, 15 of 1909 (Cape) to the Transkeian Territories; Proclamation No. 98 of 1912 extending Act No. 30 of 1895 (Cape)—with modifications—to the Municipality of Elliot; Government Notice No. 627 of 1912 promulgating regulations under Act No. 15 of 1911.

 REDUCTION OF RAILWAY RATES. Mr. J. W. JAGGER (Cape Town, Central)

said he had given notice of a question to the Minister of Railways and Harbours as to the negotiations with the Portuguese representatives in reference to the question of the proposed reductions of railway rates. Perhaps the Minister would now be in a position to make a statement?

 The MINISTER OF RAILWAYS AND HARBOURS

said he might say that it was considerably more than a fortnight since the representatives of the Portuguese Government came here to discuss the question of certain rates which it was proposed to lower. The negotiations took a very considerable time, for the reasons stated by him the other day, and that morning they had had the final meeting of the Joint Board with the representatives of Portugal. He would like to indicate to the House how it was proposed to distribute the £750,000 set aside for the reduction of rates. It, was proposed, on South African coal, bricks, native timber, limestone, and other rough minerals to make a reduction of £303,000. A very small proportion of this was for other minerals; it was mainly for coal, £303,600; to facilitate the placing of coal on the overseas market, a reduction of 1s. a ton, making £20,000—(hear, hear)—a reduction in private sidings, where coal would also benefit, £50,000. The charge for private sidings is very considerable.

 Sir T. W. SMARTT (Fort Beaufort):

How much a ton is that?

 The MINISTER OF RAILWAYS AND HARBOURS:

It is not a question of tonnage, or only a part of it. Continuing, Mr. Sauer said there was a reduction on sheep and other small animals of £30,000—(Ministerial cheers)—which he hoped would make mutton cheaper in Cape Town and Johannesburg. On rough timber and South African wagon-wood there would be a reduction of £95,000. (Hear, hear.) On plain timber, including ceiling and flooring boards, £32,000; tramlines and other accessories, £37,500 galvanised iron, £30,000—(hear, hear)—agricultural and dairy machinery and implements, £36,000; cement, £24,000; revision of port rates, £85,000; fencing material, £7,500. The reductions would be distributed as follows: The Transvaal would benefit to the extent of £520,000; the Orange Free State to the extent of £80,000; the Cape to the extent of £100,000; and Natal to the extent of £50,000. He had hoped they would be able to put these rates in force immediately. They could not, however, make reductions on the Delagoa Bay line without considering the matter with the representatives of the Portuguese Government, and so far they had not been able to come to a settlement on, the matter. They were free, however, to make reductions on coal to the extent of £303,000; rebate on coal shipped, £20,000; charges on private sidings, £50,000; live-stock, £30,000; and cement, £12,000 £415,000 in all. He proposed to make a reduction on imported cement as well as South African cement, so that farmers should get that useful article at a cheaper rate. These reductions could be given effect to immediately, and it was intended that they should come into operation on July 30—that was the £415,000 This left £335,000.

They could also give effect to the reduction on sheep and other live-stock without reference to the Portuguese. They were within their legal rights to give effect to so much of the reductions represented by the £335,000 as would be necessary to give the Union the percentage of traffic provided for under the Mozambique agreement. At present the Union did not get its share of the traffic. (Hear, hear.) Therefore they could in respect of these articles make reductions so as to give the Union its share under the Mozambique agreement It was their intention to proceed to do so without delay. He hoped that they would be able to come to an agreement with the Portuguese Government later on to give effect to the other provisions, but if it should be that the latter would not agree to any alterations being made, the Union could, of course, give this £335,000, or portions of it, to Union ports in reductions, if not immediately on these articles, on some other articles where it was material to make reductions so as to promote the development of the interior. They proposed to reduce the rates to the extent of £750,000, and they could reduce them at once on the articles previously enumerated to the extent of £435,000. With regard to the remainder, they proposed to reduce the rates to such an extent as to give the Union ports what they were entitled to under the Mozambique agreement.

 Mr. J. W. JAGGER (Cape Town, Central):

How much will that absorb?

 The MINISTER OF RAILWAYS AND HARBOURS:

It will not absorb anything like what is proposed here. Continuing, Mr. Sauer said that rates on timber and wagon wood would be reduced by 14s. 2d. a ton, doors and windows by 29s. 2d. a ton to Johannesburg, and windmills by 60s. 10d. a ton; but he was afraid that if they were to reduce through Cape ports only there would be precious little traffic to go anywhere else. As soon as they saw how much they had effected in this way they would proceed to give the country a reduction on articles they could do immediately or in the near future.

 Mr. W. B. MADELEY (Springs):

Arising out of the statement

 Mr. SPEAKER:

The hon. member cannot debate a statement.
