MacDONiALD asked the Commissioner of Public Works it he has received a petition from residents 0t‘ Allisery. Cherry l-lill and Head of Hillsiboro praying for B" lilllmived highway project from Mount Stewart through Allisary, Cherry Hill and Head of Hilishoro to Morell iChurch; and if so what is the intentional’ the Government in connection therewith. HON. J. A. McDONALD said the question was not one of the inten- tion of the Government. The Gov- eminent is not even giving it con- sideration at the present time and is not in a position to do so. This question partly involves the qnes tion of Government policy, but, more especially it rebates to the ag- reement originally made between the Governments oi‘ Prince ‘Edward Island and the Dominion with re- gnrd to highway projects in gen- eral. In 1920 there was a program laid down by ‘the then Government covering 850 miles of "improved highways throughout the Province. Roughly speaking, some six hund- red odd miles of that program has been undertaken, ‘and, there are still, some 200 odd miles of it which have not. Ibecn touched. these pro jects not yet having been laid out or approved by the Dominion oi‘ Canada. A petition has been receiv- ed in ccnnectiofwith the road re- ferred to in the question. it ts-mot included in the original program as laid down by this Province for ap- proval at Ottawa. Whether there will be ‘any change in the original program cannot ‘be answered at pre sent. The project referred t0 looks like a desirable one. but whether it can be. undertaken or not is -a ques tiou that cannot be answered at present for the reason given. He did not know whether the Dominion (lovernment will agree to have any itew projects started until the pro gram is completed. MR. J. JHTGUSTJNE {MCDONALD asked the Commissioner of Pubic Works, it‘ he has received a peti- tion irom James Walsh and other rcsiilenis oi‘ Plsquid, Dromore, Au- burn and Mount Stewart praying that a new road be opened at polnl on or near the farm of James A. MacDonald, Pisquid to encircle a hill known as McMahon's Hill and what he proposes doing in re- ference lo same. HON. J. A.

Marooned On Barren Isle

(Canadian Press.) ‘SYDNEY, N. S. W., March 27.— When the steamer Talhuan reach ed here recently on her return from the East ,the story was told 0i‘ the fearful privations suffered by iiity- one Maylayan men, women, and children, who were marooned on a barren Pacific isle. ‘Captain H. E. Hamilton. when passing Bird island, a Dutch pos- session in the Celeues. was surpri- sed to see a flag waved from the island. The crew went ashore and iolillll 51 darkskinnctl people, ly- ing about on the narrow strip oi beach. They had been migrating from one island to another in a large sampan, Beculmed, the sam- pan (lriited nvith ocean currents to Bird lslandl For over two weeks they had been stranded.

in. the bill. The city desires to expend the furtherysum of $50,000 for pennanent works and 811,500 towards a soldiers’ monument. it is not probable that the entire sum of $50,000 will be expended, but the city does not want to come to the Legislature year after year, asking for power to issue deben- tures. A certain pert of this money is absolutely necessary in order that city street projects may be finished. Some streets contained in the projects have been finished and others have not been complet- Od- If U19 filly is to share in the Dominion Grant of 40 percent they must have money to buy material, and this method is the only one whereby they can get the money- by issuing debentures. Otherwise the work will have to be abandon- ed and the 40 percent grant on the projects still unfinished will be lost. "i do not know that you need be very much afraid of the Mayor and Councillors who are’ governing Charlottetown," continued Dr, Me. Millan. “They have the confi- dence of the people and l think they are business men enough to run the affairs of the city in a. pm‘- fecily sound financial way. The best proof of that is that the city debentures yield a better rate than any debentures oi’ a similar nature l know of. The bond" holders are quite satisfied with our financial standing. it’ you think that this city is too highly tnxcd, I submit the only proper way of judging that is by comparison. The tax rate in this city is very much lo\ver than in any other city of the Do- minion of Canada. "Regarding the debenture issue of $11,500, this i5 to go towards erecting the Soldiers’ Monument. The plans have been completed for that project. The monument is ordered and must be paid for. Some time ago the city took the very proper "stand, I think, in com- ing to the late Government and asking that the Government make a certain grant towards this monu- ment. That proposition was turn- ed down, so the citizens them- selves are building tho monument, and they must issue debentures to pay for it. Mr. C. McArthur asked why the phrase "authorized to expend n further sum was used in place of “authorized to borrow a further sum." An emergency might arise where the money would be borrow-

ed but not expended. The prin- ciple of the act was perfectly sound. The city has sinking
