The report also urges the im- mediate provision of a special ferry for the Borden-Tormentine mute to carrv automobiles. trucks and busses, with accommodation for at least 100 such vehicles per

It recommends that the “best possible engineering advice" be secured with regard to the feasi-i bility of extending the deep water iexrminals at Borden and Tormen- t e.

Also new and larger automobile and truck ferries for the Wood Islands-Caribou route; improve- ments to the docks and channels at Wood Islands and Caribou, with modem navigation lights and telephone communication at both piers. and radio communication between the boat and the piers. improvements are suggested in the railway roadbed, railway bridges and curves, and switching facilities. In regard to passing tracks and general switching such points as Charlottetown, Summer- slde. Kensington, Borden, Mon- tague and Souris need to be re- arranged.

Rallway Shops

Improvements in tlic railroad shops at Charlottetown are sus- gested; also provision for the tak- ing of apprentices. The commit- tee was informed that at present all engine or ra road car jobs costing over $5, are sent to Moncton. At one time over 400 men were employed in the rail- road shops at Charlottetown “and while it is difficult to secure pres- ent figures it is believed there are approximately 63 regular employees in these shops."

“We further recommend that While the Rocky Point ferry rc- mains in service, passengers be prohibited from smoking on the boat. The construction of this bridge would avoid the fatal accl- dents that have occurred in the 08st in the Spring of the year by horse-drawn vehicles and persons going through the ice.
