Slside Board I

Backs Move For Museum

The Summerside Board of Trade last night unanimously went on record as supporting the action of the Summerside Town Council in offering a site. estimated to be worth sl0.000. to the Government to be used to erect a Provincial museum and on motion further recommended that the Govern- ment be strongly urged to take advantage of this offer. Last night's meeting was perhaps one of the most largely attended in some years due to the fact that there was a full agenda of im- portant business to be attended to and that the guest speaker of the evening was Colonel Fran-k storey. the president of the Charlottetown Board of Trade. who delivered a splendid address dealing with Provincial industrial problems and the need for an industrial survey of Prince Edward Island.

Dealing with the three major industries of the Province. agricul- turc, fishing and the tourist trade. Colonel Storey spoke of the mar- vellous opportunities in each but pointed out that "we must be able to produce in each of these in-

dustries for twelve months a year and not for merely two or true. months."

.'I'hc regrettable loss of popula- tioh due to the fact that many young people leave this Province for other parts of Canada where Obportunitlea are greater was dealt with by the speaker. who contended that many of these would gladly return to their na- tive Province and work for a much lower rate of pay if year around opportunities were here and that even at the lower rate they could ada-pt themselves to a high stand- ard of living in Prince Edward Island. .

The splendid waterway transpor- tation facilitlea of this Province were reviewed by Colonel Storey and he pointed out that many otli- er provinces in Canada would give anything to have these same ad- vantages.

llrgea Economic Survey Many difficulties could be solved

in time, he felt. if a board. set up by the Government, composed of

Competent and uaaalfiah btuineu men would undertake an economic MW! of the Province.

Mr. Alan Holman reported that the job of erecting the Christmas trees on Water Street had be... completed and made an appeal to the business men on Front Street to decorate the trees in front of their business establishments. This will .bring many people to sum. merside. he felt, and in that way all would benefit and the addition- al business would mean increased prosperity for all. .

Last night the Board dealt with the matter of street mail delivery. A letter was read from the Sum- merside branch of the Canadian Postal Union regarding the urgent need of such a service. Mr. Eric MacKay of the local post DIIlC(! staff gave some important facts to back up the claim for this service. He said that there are only about six towns in Canada of a com- parative sixe which do not have street delivery today.

He stated that the new post or- fice now under construction will be required to cater to 8.000 peo- ple. Provision has been made in the new biiiiding for 1,000 boxes. ir- the present post office there are about 750 boxcs and there are cases where four or five families are getting their mail in the saint box. Consequently the small ad- diivional number of boxes in the

new building will not take care of the situation. Congestion in the present office la terrific. he point- ed out. and the condition had be- come aggravated when the airport came to Summer id .

Now is the time. Mr. Macxay contended. for acme action to be taken before l'-inal plans are made concrete in connection with the boxes in the new post office.

The mail service committee was instructed to draw up a strong resolution. recommending that street delivery be inaugurated in Sum-mcrslde and that copies of the resolution be forwarded at once to the Post Master General and to the Federal representatives.

Mr. Donald Baker informed the meeting that Summerside and Kensington now have a regular shunting service which relieves t-he crew of the passenger train from doing this work. This has been something which the Sum- merside Board of Trade has advo- cated for some years and it was heard last evening with consider- 'abie satisfaction. Members agierd that a letter be forwarded 10 Mr Montgomery, the superintendent. expressing the thanks of the Board for his action.

it was revealed last the meeting that the present heat- ing plans for the new post office call for coal and in View of Fht

consequent smoke nuisance it was

night at

the consensus of opinion. that ac-

tion be immediately taken to try to have this changed to oil healing. l

The Town Improvement Com- mittee was instructed to Prepare a strong resolution to this effect and to forward copies to the 9113' per authorities.-S.
