them a bill for the same amount The reduction which set off an exchange of telegrams be between � tween tho village and Victoria was made to cover an account for water plpo Installations made by the highways depajt ment in 1058 It left tho village of Burns Lake with a per capital grant of 524 for this year The first billing for tho water pipe which had been left by tho highways department on village property was dated February 1 0 1 96 1 The argument has gono on at Intel vals over since On receipt of the cheque a wire was sent to Premier Ben Bennett � nett asking if the comptroller general had authority to deduct any money from a government grant for payment of an alleged account claimed by tho Depart Department � ment of Highways A wire was also sent to high highways � ways minister Gaglardl asking If the comptroller of supplies for his department has the auth authority � ority arbitrarily to Instruct the comptroller general to deduct a sum of money from a provincial government grant for payment oi an alleged account A wire was received from Mr Gaglardl stating that tho comptroller general has the authority to deduct from a gov government � ernment grant at the

highways � ways mule i took to lay a new water line fiom the Burns Lake Hardware to the east boundary of the municipality as they were relocating tho load Accordingly the department obtained and laid out the amount of pipe required As the work progressed It was found that 328 feet of pipe laid by the village for the old road could be tied Into the new road This was done by the depart department � ment who then had 328 feet of their own pipe left over This pipe was picked up by the department and left on vil village � lage property It was not until February 1961 that the village was asked for the pipe or for payment In lieu of Its return By that time the pipe had been used by the village for water extensions as It appealed the department had left it with the village
