S'side A legion Votes Money To Investigate Ilink

—At a recent executive meet- ing of the Sununerside Branch No. 5 of the Canadian Legion B.E.S.L. held at the Legion rooms It was resolved that the sum of $150.00 be made available to the Sum- merside citizens committee ap- pointed to investigate the cost of blliidiflll l new rink. The sum is to be used to defray expenses of delegated representing the com- mittce who will go to various mainland centres and obtain in- formation as to the cost of build- ing an artificial ice rink in the Town. The sum is to be repay- able b0 the Legion by the com- mittee should the expenses incur- red later be paid by the Town of Srummerside.

Dr. H. E. Clark. chairman of the committee, stated yesterday that this was a very generous gesture on the part of the Canadian Legion and one that would most cer- tainly be taken advantage of just as soon as suitable parties, eap- able of investigating the matter and bringing bacicconsiructive in- formation, could be found. He said they would he delegated to visit such centres as Sackviile, Steiiarion and Glace Bay where new rinks have recently been built.

The sum mentioned is to be made available providing that the citizens committee recommend that a rink only be built at present and not. a community center too. -~ S

Expetlglthismen Rink To Open

-—Wcather permitting. the Kins- men outdoor rink in Summcrside will open for the season today. The unfavourable weather to date has held up the opening and a great deal of hard work on the part of Charlie Hogan. chairman of the rink committee and his associates went for nothing.

Three times previously they just about had it ready when a thaw undid all their efforts. The regular groups of youth hockcy will be sponsored by the club as in other years.

An organlzaiion meeting was held in the High School auditorium yesterday afternoon attended by Charlie Hogan. Jim Harris, chair- man of the club sports commit- tee and Jim Hogan of the Depart- mcnt of‘ Physical Fitness.

The man- agement of the Crystal Rink are cooperating wholeheartedly Vin this arrangcmnent and no activities will be held there on that nigh‘- which will be announced iater.—-S

Protest Site

Of New

S’side Federal Building

Following is a brief which was drawn up by a committee of the Summerslde Board of Trade in protest against the site chosen for the new Federal building. The brie! was presented to Mr. J. Wat- son MacNaught. M.P., Parlia- mentary Asslstant to the Minister

of Fisheries who congratulated the committee on the contents of the

brief and stated it would be a great helpto him in taking the matter up with the Minister of Public Works, Mr. Fournier. The committee are as follows: Mayor J. Frank Arnett, Donald Baker,

Fred Bell, RnS. Hinton, A. S. Hop- kins.

The brief addressed to Hon. Alphonse Fournier, Minister of Public Works, Ottawa. follows:

, The matter of the site chosen for

the erection of the new post of- fice building here came up for dis- cussion st a special meeting of the Board called for the purpose yes- terday. and the undersigned were appointed a committee to forward you and our Federal representa- tive and senator. a brief stressing

the importance of obtaining an-

other site.

By way of information we may say that at the time this site was purchased by your department. it was the best site available, hut since that time a new site has come on the market, namely the

property lately nvrned by the Cau- adlan Legion and known as the Judge Saunders property.

The Saunders property is almost four times the size of the present proposed location and it is in . very desirable location for n post office, as the enclosed plan which has been drawn up for your lu- formation will show. At the pres- ent time this property consists of a vacant lot, the late Judge Saun- ders’ home having been removed by the present owner, the Town of

Summersidc.

The board has gone on record as favouring a new site for the fol-

lowing reasons : -

1. There is a. wide spread op- inion among the citizens here that the site owned by you at the corner of Church and Sum- mer Streets, should he integ- rated into and form a part of the town park to which it is adjacent.

2. The present proposed site is so small an area that the building will 0f necessity be flush with the sidewalks and will form a very blind corner for traffic.

3. Summer Street and Church Street are very narrow streets. the latter being only twenty- five feet in ividth and having in mind the many cars that will be parked about. the post office building, beionging to the post office staff, the cus- toms, fisheries nnd LIHCIIIDICLY- merit office officials and the R. C.M.P. and the people at- tending functions at the Ang- lican Church hall on the op- posiio side of Summer Street. it tvill be difficult for citizens lo obtain access near the post office by car. There will un- doubtedly be vcry bad traffic congestion and there will be very little, if nny, room to park.

4. The Saunders property on the other hand would he an ideal location from the point of view of traffic condi- tions alone. This property oom- prlses the whole block. It faces Fitzroy Street on the south, Central Street on the west and Church Street on the north as reference to the plan will more fully appear. Central Street i! a paved street thirty feet in width and the pave- ment oould be extended cast- erly in on the lot as far as would be thought necessary to sliow for angle parking or double parallel parking. The same thing could be done on the north side of Fitzroy and if necessary on the south side of Church.

ti. The Saunders property be- ing two hundred by two hund- red and twenty-five feet in area. ample room would be av- ailable for beautifying the pro-p- erty in lawns and landscaping. which would be a source of satisfaction and pride to the citizens of the town.

gap in it from Iran to Japan.

No hope of an Asiatic Marshall Plan is held out. Such help as is available under point four will go on a “correct" basis to avoid the cry of imperialism which has been heard in Europe and to which the Orient would be much more susceptible.

Much of American official hope. for Asia seems to be predicated on the belief that Russia will hang herself in the minds of the peo-l pie by her actions in China. Thatl after she has incorporated certaln= northern areas there will be 11' revulsion even among the Cem- munists in what is left, and among the until-now independent coun- tries.

That could be. Tiloism is a.

factor in Emu-ope. But it is also: well to rememibcr that Com-‘ munists are indefatigable organ- izers. That Chinese who have never been organized under any government will now be organ- ized. even down to the last tiny cluster of huts around a rice field. The Communists do it with economic promises and main- tain it by fear and force, until. just as in Russia, the organization appears unbreakable.

All 6f these things are real. So is the historical fact that, af- tor all, countries defend them- selves militarily where they are threatened militarily. Under the US. State Department conception. America's eastern perimeter of de- fence exitende to the middle of Europe. On the west it extends only to Japan and the Philippines. with Korea as a sort of Asiatic Berlin. There the situation lies.

The Thursday evening meeting in the Presbyterian Church was. [also well attended.
