An Ideal Place -

Mr. Oaffne said it was his task to study hwsy competition throughout Canada, to analyse the problem involved and to at- tempt to find solutions for them. He thought this if was an ideal place in which to eo-ordin- ate rail and highway services. He stated that thetfirst suggestion in this respect had gone to the then president of the C.N.lt.. Mr. R. G. Vaughan. from air. I. Graham Rogers.-In his letter at the time an-. Rogers. If an indl.i'v.ildu1;i.'cl!l!ad suggested a arp rove e- d as to offer a better service. lion. W. I.

Magistrate's Court

In Queen's County Magistrate's Court. before Magistrate Gilbert A. Gaudet, on Saturday. offend- ers against the Highway Traffic ltegulatlons were dealt with "as

unknown whom she described as '-tyouthful in ". while passing along selling street. at 10.15 Saturday night. Mrs. Long-

aphie, who resides with her hus- band and family at 341 lluaton Street. reported to the Police that she was returning home after making ,urchaaes at a nearby grocery store. and paid no atten- tion to the young man who pass- ed her carrying a small baseball bat, who turned into a gangway ahead of her, and apparently awaited an opportune time to make his attack as the lady passed. As Mrs. Longaphio collapsed under the shower of blows inflicted. her outcrles were heard by liarl Hobbs. who lives nearby, who rushed to her ' ' closely ' " I by his father. Howard J. Hobbs and Lloyd Grant. one of whom heard running footsteps away from the scene.

The victim was carried to her home nearby. and under instruc- tions from the doctor who was called. taken by ambulance to the chulottetcwu hospital tor x-ray examination and other he- cessary attention. chiefly for shock. The baseball bat. believ- ed to have been the offensive wea- pon used, was found at the scene of the attack. City Police are hold- lng a thorough investigation into the incident.

lng so it might be studied. Coordinated services

Mr. Gaffney went on to quote from the Provincial Guvcmment. brief presented to the Royal Com- mission on Transport. urging the advantages of eliminating mixed trains and of coordinating bus. truck and rail services. He went on to cite the evidence given by Mr. Graham Rogers. to the effect that the Provincial Government would not object to the Railway running the buses under the motor carrier board.

Mr. Rogers stated that if he had given that evidence. he must have

lsunderr f the question.

Mr. Gaffney: Were you director of transport for the Government- at that time?"

Mr. Rogers: "Yes, but I certain--

iy must have nriisunderstwd the question. There was a mistak- somewhere."

- Mr. Gsffney reviewed the neg- otiations between his company and the I.M.'l'. and said he would file a complete record of these negoti- ations.

Mr. Stewart. chairman of the committee. emphasized that the committee was interested only in seeing that Prince Edward Island had good transportation service. Mr. Gatfney went on to explain that the mixed train service now in operation was not giving the people the service they were on- titled to. He also showed that it was a money-losing. proposition.

Mr. B. Earle MacDonald. mem- ber cf the committee and former Mayor of Charlottetown. said that the "people here are not the least bit interested in the C. N. 8.. los- ing money. Economy has nothing to do with it. The Railway wrote off a billion dollars last yeek. For years the Railway has been giving poor service in this Province and it takes as long to ship a washing machine by l..C.I.. freight to Hau- fax as it takes a man and a dog to walk from Montreal."

Mr. Gaffney said his company for years had been asked to pro- vide a service from the ends of the Island. They can do it bu bus and connect with the boat train at Borden. He also said that though the company had not made any trial runs by bus they had done so over all the proposed routes by private cars. Under questioning by Mr. MacDonald he said that Sun- day services were not included in their schedules as they did not wish to interfere with the I.M.'l'. Mr. Darby remarked "You will give them one day a week," and the witness replied that they were get- ting seven daya. his company would operate at any time request-

Wlntor Bervloo

Aaked'about the proposed winter services Mr. Gaffney said that if the O. N. It. had the matter in its own control it could decide when and if it were necessary to oper- ate a train service. In other words it would know when highways were blocked. but it did not feel that it could accept the word for that of any other individual.

At the same time he also brought out that the Railway might be putting itself in jeopardy in deal- ing with the I.M.T. because that. company said it could not guar- antee to protect the pension equity

of the present employees of the Railway. After a brief recess yesterday

morning Mr. Gaffney returned to the witn stand and in his open- ing statement said that it was the desire of the Railway to replace the expensive mixed train service with a modern bus service operat- ing on a fixed schedule. He stated that all over North America the biases had prcvesl satisfactory even without the easurance of "standby" trains for winter use.

liationai Youth caravan "Tour

The National Youth Caravan which visits here this week are a group of five people who have left their homes. and regular jobs so that they might deliver a message of great importance to the young people of Canada. The Caravan is now on the last lap of a Canadian wide tour. It set out several months ago from British Columbia and has travel- led northward and eastward 2300 miles and addressed 12000 young people. Young people" groups in the Canadian cities. in the bleak and outlying stretches of Canada alike have claimed the Car- avaners.

"God is not real to many young people today," the Caravanera say. "so our great mission is to witness. to share our firm be- lief which meets today's chal- lenge so well. We present Chris- tlan witness to other young peo- ple. we bring new material and ideas to help develop vital church programmes. we examine together Christian principles in relation to today's needs" says these young people.

Last week the National Youth Caravan appeared in Sackvlile at Mount Allison University before the 600 delegates of the Marl- tline Conference of the United Church of Canada. The Confer- ence listened with close attention as the young people told of their exciting and often humorous ad- ventures encountered in the carrying out of their mission.
