The Honorable L. A. David, provincial secretary, will soon introduce a bill in the Quebec legislature which will attempt to solve the Protestant-Jewish school question. The bill will be along the lines of the legislation drafted by Peter Bercovitch, M.L.A.
A debate in the legislature on the financial question involved in the bill is expected. The Jews, having until now paid their taxes into the Protestant school system, have a share in the buildings, real estate and finances of the Montreal Protestant School Commission.
The bill of Provincial Secretary David will provide for a financial adjustment between the two groups. Provincial Premier Taschereau has declared that this matter, for the most part, will be in the hands of the Lieutenant Governor, acting through “Orders in Council.”
