Retiring A. E. C. President Pays Tribute To Successor

HALIFAX —- A widely known Canadian educator, D;-.3 Frank M3°KmI10n. principal of Prince, of Wales College, Charlottetown, has been elected president of the At- lantic Provinces Economic Coun-

special NATO conference.

Dr. MacKinnon is the third pre- sident of APEC. R. Whidden Ga- nong of St. Stephen was the coun- cil’s first president serving two years. Mr. Rankin, the retiring -president, was elected in Nov- . ember of 1956.

Dr. MacKinnon as APEC pres- ident living in Prince Edward Is- land carries out the pattern en- visaged from the beginning that APEC presidents would move from province to province.

PAYS TRIBUTE

Mr. Rankin paid high tribute to the incoming president.

Dr. MacKinnon has been elected president,” he said. “He has al- ready made an outstanding con- tribution to APEC and I am sure that under his direction the council will continue its steady growth and will as well make fur- ther contributions to the economy and social well-being of the people of the Atlantic Region,” Mr. Ran- kin stated.

Mr. Rankin will assume his new position with the Harbours Board in Ottawa on February 1. “My interest in the Atlantic Provinces and APEC and the val- uable work it is doing will not disappear because of my depar- ture ‘for Ottawa,” he said. “I ex-_ pect to remain in close contact with APEC and will continue to be a major booster for the coun- oil although my role will be an unofficial one.”

FOR DEVELOPMENT

“I would again like to reiterate that in my opinion APEC is the most important single develop- ,ment to -take place in the Atlan- tic Region in 25 years. Properly supported it can become the most powerful weapon for economic de- velopment this region has ever known,” Mr. Rankin said.

APEC has 69 directors through- out the four provinces and a nine- man executive. Members of the executive are: C. J. Morrow, Lu- nenburg, vice — president for No- va Scotia; R.‘ D. Hurst, Halifax. general chairman for Nova Sco-

“I am extremely happy that

Report from Mrs. D. Hill Little Helpers Sec., was also given by the president who stated that many calls had been made on children of the Parish., members were thanked for support during the year. Miss Cotton gave a sat isfactory report on the selling of calendars.

LET'S HELP OURSELVES

I

Habit is the enemy. We have got into the habit of hav- ing most of our work done during the summer months with the result that during the peak period men and materials are often not available to finish the work within a reason- able time. Many men are season-ably unemployed in Char- lottetown and vicinity, during every winter.

The loss in wages adversely affects every business establishment in the City and the payment of unemploy- ment service benefits only partly relieves the situation.

It is necessary to substitute common sense for habit and distribute the work to be done as’ evenly as possible throughout the year. This, like the breaking of any bad habit, /requires a real effort.

The saving of time and money to the householder and businessman; the spread of employment over the whole year for the worker; the intelligent use of all our resources of manpower, material, transportation and storage; can add to the prosperity and well being of all our ’citizens.

Do the job while there are men and materials avail-

- able. The National Employment Office in Charlottetown has the men, your local merchants have the ma’£€I'ia1S- Get in touch with both. I
