Drama Festival Association Meets"

The first fall meeting of the P. E. I. Drama Festival Associa- tion was held 'at the P. W. C. last evening with Mrs. Harold Laird presiding.

The need of a full-time director of dqamatlcs was one of the more important subjects under discus- sion. it was felt by the meeting that the rural areas have a de- finite need of an experienced coach. whom they might call, up- on to help them in the producing of their plays.

Excerpts were read from a letter from Mr. J. L. Robertson. adjudicator of the last. Drama Festival. in which he stated that although many books are avail- able on the subject. no smcu t of reading could be as effective as a few' hours coaching and prac- tical demonstration. Mr. Robert- son stated that the Department of Adult -Education in Nova Scotla has set a Nttern ln.this, and suggested that Prince Ed- ward island would receive great benefits from the engagement of

spend a day or two in the various communities during the late fall and winter months.

It was announced that com- ments on the' individual plays by Mr. Robertson had been forward- ed to the directors of the plays concerned. -, -

Committees were appointed to dealigwlth revision .of rules... short courses in drama. and procuring a trophy. for competing city groups. Scholarship fund and publicity were also discussed at length. It was suggested that do- nations be requested for the scholarship fund through the medium of the Institute News and radio broadcasts.

Mention was also made of the experiment now being made in Nova Scotla whereby several plays tour the province to show the type of production suitable for festival presentation. It was auggested that the secretary con- tact thls dramatic group to see if it would be possible to have them stage at least one night's per- formance in this Province.

Protests lodged lie Extra Boost In Freight Bales

In a prepared statement issued today from Ottawa by the Canad- ian Federation of Agriculture, the 400,000-farmer organization an- nounced it -had asked. the Board of Transport Commissioners to block the rail freight increase on live- stock. The Federation said it was informed that a number of the Provincial G-.vem-men-ts are con- sidering similar action.

The Federation asked suspension of the new rates. which will amount to a general increase of 18 per cent. until a full meeting of the Board of Transport Commiss- ioners could be held.

In the meantime the Transportat- ation Commission oi the Maritime Board of Trade has lodged with the secretary of the Board of Trans- port Commissioners; and has ap- plied for an order under Section 3 of the Maritime Freight Rate Act of rear for the cancellation of C. N. R. tariffs on cattle, calves, hogs, lambs and sheep in straight or mix- ed ccarload lots applying to increas- ed distance rates.

The Transportation Commission also maintains that the proposed livestock freight-rate increase is a direct violation of' the Maritime Freight Rates Act since an 18-per- cent increase exceeds the statutory rates as effected on July 1. 1027, as increased by permission M the Board's Order, No. 'ro,ns of March 30, lots. and the Order, No. '14.- M2. of May 25. 1960.

and extcndilrlg eastward about 2,000 feet from the river.

B-The slopes from the height of land leading into the lfill.sbor- ough River. extending back from the river to the Mount lildward Road.

C-The central -plain area lying on -both sides of the Mslpeque Road and areas "A" and "B" drain- ing by Spring Park Brock to Gov- ernment Pond and the I-Iapbor.

"The water supply." the report states. "would be from deep wells equipped with turbine tylpe pumps having combination. electric mo- tor snd gas engine drive. the latter to be used in case of electric pow- er failure. 'llhe operation of the electric driven units to be auto- rnatic pressure controlled requir- ing pr ” lly no attendance.

"Storage capacity would be furn- ished invthe form of two steel stsndpipes on selected high ground in the areas being served with pressure regulation between the areas to overcome any severe dif- ference in head, if necessary, but not likely. No supply mains to be smaller than six inches in diameter and standard fire hydrant cover- age to be supplied.

Sewage Problem

"A general sewerage system should be constructed to serve the total area with the view of constructing such portion as will take care of present development and allowing for extension as the area builds up in the future.

"As has been pointed out. three drainage areas exist and normally would require at least three out- falls. Area 'A' will require an outfall to the North River and area "B" will require an outfa-ll to the Hillsborough River. Area 'C' would normally be served by the construction of a trunk outlet down the Spring Park Brook Val- ley and if possible enter the ex- isting City system and dlsmarge through their facilities.

"This matter was discussed briefly with City authorities and the information received was to the effect that the City mains in the Spring Park valley were in- adequate in capacity and that further, as the contributory sew- age from this section of the city was pumped. their pumping fa- cilities were now overtsxed with- out handllng any addition in vol-

ume.

"There appeara to be no obstacle to the construction of cuifalls to the North or Hillsbos-ough Rivera and in view of the inadequacy of the City system to handle sewage from area '0'. it is the writer's belief that it would be better to pump sewage from this area into the North River outfall sys- tam and this brief is based on that idea.

"rho matter of discharging raw sewage into these rivers has been given consideration and in view of good -bathing beaches on these shores. it is the wrliu-'s feeling that some degree of treatment should be used such as sedimenta- tion of sewage to retain the solids

-ind me chlorination of the ef- uent balm discharge to these

Emma that such action is taken by some-

.............................. rivers. The cost 'esi:irnete is based on doing this.

leeponsibilfty for Project

"As the area concerned lies with- out the incorporation of the City of Charlottetown-and in view of the factthatthereisnofcrm efooun. ty municipal government in Prince Edward Island. the responsibility for initiating and implementing the above project lies with the Gov- ernment of Prince Edward Island.

"it can -be easily understood that the -Island Government does not wish to become the operator of a waterworks and, sewerage system as that is -not their function. however they carry the responsibility to see

one.

"It would appear that there are two ways in which this problem should or could be handled, each of which will require the moral and financial support of the central Government. They are as follows:

"1. Incorporation of'the area into the city of Charlottetown. This is the logical plan as the City now has set up staff and facilities to administer. operate and maintain such systems and in the course of a few years they will have it prov- en as a sound move and one mak- ing for progress. Such a. move on the part of the City is useless un- less immediate action is taken to supply the services outlined above. The normal reaction of the City Council will be 'Why should we take on is large increase in our bonded indebtedness which will certainly result in an increase in our tax rate?' on the other hand there will be liable to be opposition from taxpayers in the 'Fringe Ares.' who will be opposed to com- ing under the much higher tax rate of the City than that present- ly prevailing in their own district."

Alternative Proposals

In order to remove these objec- tions, the following plan is propos- ed in the report:

"1, The Province to buy the city's Bonds to cover the capital cost. which bonds will be forty year serials. The interest and annual . -'uctlon of pa. cipal to be paid by thevclty to the Province. In ad- dition and so that the City suffer no loss in the early period and to avoid one charge for services in the City and another in the newly acquired area, the rate for services now charged in the city to apply to the new area. The difference or deficit on operations between revenue of the water and sewer de- partment and the cost of operation including debt charges to be re- paired by the Province to the city during the first fifteen years fol- lowing amalgamation of the areas or until such time as or if the sys- tem operates with a. balanced bud- get. The City and Fringe Area also to agree that the full tax rate of the city he not imposed at the first but be built up in increments an- nually for fifteen years when the tax rate will be common for the whole cf Greater Charlottetown."

(Mr. Hyndman stated that Mr Wlghtman felt that a monthly fee of 35.00 per home owner in the suburban area would pay for the costs of the system. In order that the suburban resident pay the same as the city person for the services he suggested that the Pro- vincial Goverrunent make up the difference),
