—-Y'S MEN ELECT SLATE — The annual meeting of the Sum- merside Y's Men's Club ii-ns held ‘ast night and a new slate of uf- ficers elected. Mr. Geozge T‘. Clarke was elected President for the coming year. The full list of cfffcers are B5 follows; Hon, Pre- sident. Mayor w.J. Llcistone; Past

The meeting W85 held n the club rcoms, Mr. R.S. Hinton presiding.

the latter statement. He could only recall one resolution being sent, and one copy. The latter was in con- nection with the deep water ter- mlnail.

Mr. MacIeod felt, however. that the railway project would go through. He then went on to say that he had received a confidential letter early in March advising him that the Naval Architect was in- vestigating the possibility of arrang- ing to have an ice breaking ferry sent to this province. This boat was operating 0n the Great Lakes and 1s owned by the C. N. R It would have to be cut in iwo to get out of the Lakes and the difficulty appears to be the acceslbility of a. drydcck in which to have ft reassembled for use on the Borden-Tormentine run. ‘Fhe information was since made public ln the Dominion Parliament.

Mr. R. E. Mutcli spoke of a boat operating on the Si. Lawrence which is available now. It. had been brought to his attention as a pos- sible ferry for the Wood Islands- Cariboo route. ‘This steamer was capable of carrying 45 autos and 462 passengers. It. was built in 1041 and cc-uld be bought for $60,000,

A letter was then read from the Hochelaga Shipping Company urg- ing the Board o take action in con- nection with reinstating the Pictou- Charlottetown route. This service could operate while navigation was open and the Wood Islands ferry could operate during Julv and Aug- ust whlle tourist traffic was heavy. The communication also spoke of a proposed 25-csr boat which the company could build. It was signed by John Simon. The communication was acknowledged but not discusyd.

The matter of the Newfoundland steamer service was brought. up by Dr. Clark who informed the meet- ing that he had heard there would be a. boat operating on this route within two weeks. Mr. R. E. Mutch doubted if this was so.

Dealing with the matter of the Newfoundland air service. Mr. Ains- worth said he had been informed at T. C. A. was investigating the possibillt of using the local airport. He also spoke of the need oi ex- teding the runways. Dr. Clark stres- sed the need of having another run- way. which was originally proposed. made ready for use as this wa necessary in a prevailing wind.

After a brief discussion it was de- cldecl that the matter should be left in the hands of the Ikansportation Committee as it was felt that Char- lottetown should be mode a port of call in this service.

Expressions of sympathy on the death of the late Mr. J. C. A. Gor- don, a member of the Council. were heard and the Secret was in- structed to write his rela ivee in this connection.

Those attending the meeting were: s

Messr V. A. Alnsworth. president, Wallace Higgins. secretary, E ' Mulch A B. Belcher. Dr. J. A.

WASHINGTON. April 9-48?)- Arrangements were c- mplelved 1101* today by which Canadians. living in the United States will have the right to elect to serve in arm- ed forces of Canada. when called up under American draft laws.

By an exchange of notes be- tween the governments of Canada and the United states. the right of election was made reciprocal and Americans living in Canada. if made liable to compulsory military service there, will have the option of. entering the army of their homeland.

It. is impossible to estimate the number of Canadians in the United State: who will elect to nerve in the forces of Canada but there are probably 20.000 who, in the next few weeks or months. will be classified 1-A under the draft law, rendering them subject t0 induction in the United States army unless they take advantage of their right of election.
