druckers Oppose | ‘Railway In Gas

ee iets — The Que- | bec Trucking Association Thurs- day criticized the federal gov- ernment's plan to build a 50- mile railway line between Ma- tine and Ste. Anne Des Monts in Quebec's Gaspe region.

The association said it was) “exceedingly surprised’’ by the | government's announcement of the proposed railway because the Macpherson royal commis- sion on transportation had rec- ommended abandoning non-pro- fitable railway services.

It said three trucking com- panies, bus lines and various local truckers and taxis were available in that part of Que- bec to meet the demand for freight and passenger services.

“What can, therefore, justify the federal government in want- ing to build a railway in this place, cost of which will amount to about $16,000,000 which will certainly operate at, a loss,”’ the association asked.

It said the government would be better advised to give sub- sidies to the existing transpor- tation services “rather than in- vest millions of dollars in an enterprise that will never be profitable.”

The association spokesman said that the commission ‘‘has cut our budgets wherever it could, and the point has been reached where hospitals have no hope of getting by — the commission doesn’t seem to have funds available to make normal payments to hospitals.” OTHER POINTS

Other points that are believed

are: hospital administration is) bogged down by red tape and| restrictive rulings; it is difficult to hire competent help, as bud- gets do not provide large enough salaries for persons who have! qualifications required by the commission; and that record keeping practices of the com- mission in regard to hospital in- | Surance premiums are inade- ; quate.
