Addresses Members of lt.c.A.F. Ass'n

"The Royal Canadian Air Force is as" up to date in technique as either the RAF. or the United States Air oFrce." said Wing Commander H. 0. Forbes, DFC, to members of the Royal Canadian Air Force Association 201 (Con- federation) Wing at the regular monthly meeting held here last. nltzht.

wrc Forbes. Officer Command- ing Central Navigation School at summerside was speaking of the function of the Specialist Navig- ation Course held each year at the Western Capital base and told of many interesting highlights in the history of the course. both in the R,.A.E'. and the R..C.A.F. It wasn't until 1948 that the R. C. A. F. set up such a course. Until that

time all students from this country .

attended courses in England "Nav- igation has changed greatly in the years, and the World War Two Navigator would find many dif- ferences in his trade these days," laid wrc Forbes.

The members were pa.rticularly interested in the various trips which the Course takes each year and in their place on the OVP”-B plan of the 30 week period at

Summerside. WK: Forbes told of three of the trips. one a cross-Canada ex-

pedition visiting several or iii major Air Forces bases afid indust- ries pertaining to flying navigat- ion. The trip to the United States. which took them to Wl'lgllf.-Palm terson Field at Dayton. Ohio. prov- cd of extreme interest to the stu- dents as many developments close to navigation were i learned and discussed.

Their most recent trip was in March to England where the R. C. A. F. works in close. conjunction with their English comrades and the Canadians sat in on many valuable lectures with the R. A. F. students. Also on the itlnary was a visit to Sperry Aviation plant where the students gained wealth of knowledge of the in- struments used in their trade.

During the business session of the meeting. Sinclair McLeod. local delegate to the annual meet- ing at the Maritime Group Con- vention, held this year in Halifax. gave an interesting out line of the proceedings and told of the elect- ion of WlC Angus MacI.ean M.P. Its vice-President for P. E. I. to the Group. Mr. McLeod also stated that it W6-5 planned that the next meeting of the Group would be held in Charlottetown next Feb- ruary.

Plans were tentatively arranged for a dance to be held at the Roll-a-way Ballroom in the near future, and it is hoped to have an outstanding orchestra to provide music for the occasion. .

The meeting also unanimously voted to assist in any . way the Calsdonian club in securing the services or an R. C. A. F. pipe band from Montreal to he in at- tendsnco here during the visit of Lord Lovat in July. '

That all his Premier had been made on a fair religious basis was maintained by Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MacMiilan yes- terday in the Legislature as he took part in the Budget debate. He suggested that "lt has taken a long t e for my hon. friend (Premier ones) to learn that.” He added that he had made his appointments on I 55-45 per cent basis.

The speaker was afraid that the Principal of the College wanted to make it into a University and stated his opinion that this was a "desperate mistake.” He thought that the first task of Prince of Wales College was to turn out teachers and added the remark that "if I said there was religious discrimination at Prince of Wales College you would be horrified."

He further asked why the Catholic teachers got a total increase in pay of 3675 with seven of them getting no in- crease.

The speaker observed that there were many universities in the

Maritime Provinces at present and suggested that Prince of Wales College stick to its primary pur- pose of training teachers. He also thought that the teaching of pol- itical science was I wast: of time, "Let them learn it w en they come into this House."

While believing that e. system of regional high schools was the probable answer to the problems of the Province Dr. Me.oMillan still wondered where the money to finance them would come from.

The speaker wondered why the amount of 840,000 which was supposed to be paid in taxation by the Canadian National Railway was not being received at present. He said it disappeared entirely when the tax agreement was signed in 1943. And over the past 10 years there was 3400000 lost.

"It pays above all to be court- eous and kind." Dr. Maclvlillan said in speaking of the tourist industry, and Tie stressed its im- portance to the Province. At. the same time he told the House of his personal opinion of the way in which the Department was presently being run as he paid tribute to its director.

Cites Precedentq

Regarding Mr. Saviile's sug- gestion of the paving of a street leading from the proposed Trans Canada Highway to this City the speaker said the Government would have a precedent for doing it as he recalled that back about 30 years ago a street had been paved in Montague with the Prov- ince, the Federal Government and the town each paying one-third of the cost.

Dr. MacMillan said that the Rustico fishermen had had 1. poor year in 1951 and was glad to note that the Department of Industry and Natural Resources was try- ing to do something to help fisli- ermen now. In general he thought that the fishery industry was a Federal matter and should be looked after by Federal author- ities. However, he thought the Dominion had never assumed its proper responsibility in the mat-

ter.

In touching on the problem cf treatment from the Ottawa Gov- ernment financlally Dr. MacMii- lan said that the whole spirit of Confederation had been lost and the Federal capital wanted to treat us not as a Province "which they made us" but on a per capita basis. He insisted the treatment should be on the basis of govern- mental responsibility.

A farewell dinner was held in Other members elected were with pl-cvloug gpegkei-5 on the

need for compulsory voting. The Minister of Health and Welfare was taking part in the debate on electoral reform at the time. The debate sparked a verbal fire which spread all over the House as practically all members took part.

Mr. W. F. A. Stewart opposed the taking away of the property vote as he said that the property holder had anstake in the Prov- ince and is paying the taxes. Dr. W. J. P. MucMillan said that in former days it used to be the practice of political parties to get running mates from widely scat- tered parts of a dlstr:..t-especiai- ly those which stretched across the Province from North to south. He agreed thdt there should bl. some sort of electoral eform to take away the indefin teness ex- isting. The speaker said there should be a list of voters similar; to that used in Federal elections as at present there were people arriving at the polls who were utterly unknown to the men in charge.

Hon. Eugene Cullen. Minister of industry and Natural Re- sources, suggested that the Lead- er of the Opposition. Mr. R. it Bell, would like to set a day "ev- ery four years” for elections so

had some merit and remarked that a person should not be dis- qualified from voting "simply be- cause he owns property." How-

to the old days and believed that we should follow the Dominion Election Act as closely as possible with only one vote for each per- son.

Mr. George Seville said that the people of the Cardigan dis- trict seemed to be satisfied as "they keep on re-electing us."

Supports Ilansard suggestion

With Mr. R. E. Bell agreeing with the remark made the day previously by Dr. W. J. P. Mac- Mlllan that the local Legislature should have its own "Hansard", the Leader of the Opposition quoted from the "Examiner" of 1893 when it was dealing with the question of formation of tire House at that time. At that time the newspaper of the day thought there were too many members. Hon. Mr. Darby laid that I. two- thirds vote of the Legislature would be ecessary to affect any changel and Hon. Mr. Matheson asked "How about going back to the days of the Legislative As- sembly?”

Hon. Mr. Darby suggested there was no need to go back as "there is honor in being in the Govern- ment." However, he stated flat- ly that there were matters which might be improved. He said that there was a glaring example of inequality in the Summer-side dis- trict where there was a large body of men not interested par- ticularly in Prince Edward land who might by their votes upset the wishes of the majority of resident voters. (It was as- sumed that the Attorney General was referring to the men of the R. C. A. F. station who would have I. franchise vote in any Provincial election.)

fight, and equipment which is "bedevilied" by the "premature and unwise" decision to standard- ize on U. S. equipment.

The Air Force by the end of the year would have only 12 regular fighting squadrons. The long-range all-Canadian Jet fighter, the Can- uck, was nowhere near production although it was supposed to be I year ago. The other Jet fighter, the Sabre, was being equipped with ob- solete arms. The Air Force had a heterogeneous collection of planes. many of which were obsolete.

Maj. Fulton said the reserve forces were a matter for shame and regret becuse of the system under which they operated. In British Columbia", the present organization for Canadian Rangers, part-time guardians of the hinterland. was "completely unworkable.” ,-
