Various matters of community interest were given broad discus- sion last evening at the regular monthly meeting of the Summer- slde Board of Trade with the pres- ident. Mr. C.R. Machaggan. pre- aiding.

Among the matters up for dis- cussion were the impending visit of the president of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce to this Province. the matter of highway upkeep. a definite Board of Trade agricultural policy, the sewerage outlet at the west end of the town and an overall discussion of the perennial problem of daylight sav- ing time versus standard time.

Regarding .daylight saving time. the gen I opinion of the mem- bers esent appeared to be in favor of it, not because daylight saving time is a matter of conven- ience for town people but because in the majority of cases. with the merchants and the manufacturers remaining on standard time in this Province it has caused a great deal of S ' and " ' ' loss to those firms having mainland busi- ness connections.

Several Problems Discussed

rd of Trade

merchants and other business men to have daylight saving time in this Province and thus be in line with other Provinces to institute it each year.

Regarding the visit of Mr. Ray- mond Dupuis, president of the Canadian Chain” of Commerce to the Province. it was decided that due to uncertain travelling conditions at this time of year that his visit to Summerside for a joint meeting with the Summer- side Board of Trade and the Rotary Club at R.C.A.F. Station be can- celled and the Summerside mem- bers attend the meeting of the Board in Charlottetown instead.

In connection with necessary re- pairs to various sections of the highway in the vicinity of Sum- merside. it was decided to contact the Minister of Highways and as- certain the plans of the Depart- ment regarding road repair for the coming season.

The agriculture committee of the board was appointed to draw up a Board of Trade policy on agricul- ture which will be submitted to the meeting of the Maritime Prov- inces Board of Trade.

Mr. .l.F. Arnett brought to the attention of the board the matter of the sewerage at the west and approach of the town and said that it was a matter of grave im- portance to the health of the clu- zens. The civic affairs committee was asked to get in touch with the Summerside Town Council on this matter and to report back at the next meeting of the Board.

Pearson Gives Views On Canal

OTTAWA (CP) - The Canadian llovernment would disapprove of any Egyptian attempt to bar In- rat-li shipping from the Suez Ca- nal. External Affairs Minister Pearson said Monday.

Any such Egyptian action would be contrary to United Nations res- nlutions. he added in reply to Commons question! bY HOWIN Green tpc-vancou-aer Quadra).

Mr. Pearson also said advice given American shipowners by the United States government-to ex- orcise prudence in immediate use of Sucz-might be acceptable to 5hIPDPrs of other countries. Cana- dian shipowners hadn't used the canal in ll: years.

Mr. Pearson said governments of countries which are the main canal users are. still considering

OTTAWA (CPJ-Prime Minister St. Laurent declined Monday to investigate further charges of "stiff representations" to the CBC by his cabinet colleagues.

Replying in the Commons to Stanley Knowles tCCF-Winnipeg North Centre), Mr. St. Laurent said he does not see why he "should investigate the accuincy. or otherwise, of all newspaper comments."

Mr. Knowles referred to charges in a column in Monday's Montreal Gazette by the newspaper's par- liamentary correspondent, Arthur Blakely. The correspondent wrote:

"It is known that agood many other private citizens who also happen to be membe as of the gov- ernment or ofiicers of the National Liberal Federation have made stiff representations to the CBC. its board of governors. its chair- man of the board and its senior officers-representations designed

terms laid down by Egypt for ca- nal use. No decisions had yet been

waste less time on commentaries critical of the government in favor of' those looking more on the bright side of things. Not all were tendered in writing."

OTHERS QUESTIONED

It was a similar charge last week that preceded admission by Mr. St. Laurent that he wrote to CBC chairman A. D. Dunton to complain about the "perslflage tone" of a commentary on Can- ada's foreign policy.

Monday. Mr. St. Laurent said Mr. Knowles should ask his cab- inet colieagues in the House whe- ther there had been any other representations. Hc knw of none.

Mr. Knowles then promptly asked Health Minister Martin whe- ther he had at any time commu- nicated with the CBC about its piogrammlng.

Mr. Martin replied he had at no time directed anyone at the CBC to do anything. for the sim- ple reason that he would not suc-

in each case to have the CBC

OTTAWA (CPI - Col. Douglas Harkness contended Monday in the Commons that the govern- ment refuses to recognize the debt Canada owes its war vet- erans.

Progressive Conservative member for Calgary North. speaking in the budget debate. described increases in war pen- slons announ J in Finance Min- ister Harris' budget as miserly.

Veterans had asked a 33-per- cent increase in pensions. The in- creases granted by the govern- ment ranged from nothing for a single recipient of war veterans allowances to 20 per cent of too- per-cent disability cases.

Col. Harkness said war pension- ers now are worse off than they were in 1920. In that year the annual pension for a 100-per-cent war disability case was 3900. the same amount received then by a civil service cleaner or helper. CLEANER GETS MORE

Si e then the war pension had incr ased to 81.500 but the wages of the civil service cleaner or helper had gone to 82,760 an- nually. After the increase an- nounced in the budget the war pension will rise to 31.800 an- nually.

These figures. which Col. Hark-

Opposition Speaker Critical Of "Miserly" Pensions Boost

Canadian Legion's monthly pub- lication. the Legionary. were a clear indication of the extent to which pensioners had suffered from inflation and of the govern- ment's refusal to recognize the debt Canada owed its war vet- erans.

At one point when he was speaking there were only 26 members in the 259 - member House. No cabinet ministers were in the chamber.

Raoul Poulin (Ind - Beaucel criticized the government for not reducing federal sales taxes which. he said. brought into the federal treasury last year 5725.- 000.000-third largest amount af- ter personal and corporation in- come taxes.

TAX CUTS N0 HELP

No tax cuts would ever be of any help to low-wage earners un- til sales taxes were ieduced. Everybody. including the aged. the disabled. the blind and others dependent on state I paid sales taxes.

Mr. Poulin said Finance Minis- ter Harris did not take himself seriously In his b J announce- ment of a 81-a-mpnth increase for some recipients of family allow- ances. Many fathers and mothers would look on the increase as "s nightmare."

Maj.-Gen. G. R. Pearkes. op- position military critic. said Can- ada's armed forces have good men but lack modern equipment.

Gen. Penrkes. Conservative member for Esquimalt-saanleh. said there must be long-range nlanping in the defence depart- men .

The last mentioned is a con- troversial question. and we be- lieve the present set-up could be improved upon. We realize to ata- balize and increase salaries in general, would be a very loose way of handling the situation. In the first place, we know you are dealing with perhaps the most unstable class of working people. namely to a large percent. teen- age girls.

We recommend changes to en- courage uniformity and stability; and at the same time we ask you to recognize those who are using the pro' as a stepping stone. TRAINING

We do not agree with those who consider the teacher training course now given as the answer to qual- ification. In the first place, the older teachers who took the course in the 20's and 30's and now speak with authority. received their teacher training as a side line to their academic studies.
