~P.-~ riirst<-o-- Province Visited In Civil Service Inquiry

OTTAWA, Ont., Feb. 19 — (Spe- cial) - Prince Edward Island may be the first Province to be visited by the Royal Commission of two Canadians and a United Kingdom expert appointed to examine hours working conditions and salaries o Dominion civil servants.

W le it is not certain where the Commission will begin actual investigation of conditions in the Government service, it is thought likely hcre that they may first go to Charlottetown. First Pro- vince for registration of family allowances, Prince Edward Island is considered particularly adapted for Government experiment.

In the operation of the Com- mission named by Prime Mlnistcr King, civil servants from the Marl- tlmes to Victoria see ho es for salary increases which wli be in line with salaries paid by plivate industry in Canada.

Despite the granting of war duty supplements to certain mem- bers of the public service across the Dominion, and the boosting of salaries of Government em- ployees who could prove to Treas- ury Bosrd that theiy suffered from "gross injustice an gross inccual- ity" in salaries, employees of all departments of Government are far from satisfied with current conditions.
