The Borden-Tormentine ferry. ‘Service is to be resumed on a limited basis this morning, and this is some- thing of.a.concession-of-course.But=1t will be noted that enly passengers, passenger vehicles-and tourist trail- ers are tobe accommodated for the balance of the railway strike: leaving the most important non-rail service—. that of truck traffic—still unprovid-_ ed for except by the limited facilities at Wood Islands;
This belated decision is “said to
have been taken by the striking mem-
bers of Local 127 after a directive was read to them from their national president, W.J. Smith to man the four CNR-operated vessels—the same

up the service completely. There is |
stilt a fot of confusion as to what actually transpired between national
headquarters and the Borden strike
leaders, but this is-a matter of -much less concern to the public than the
_decision hich.Has-now-been-taken.—-}-——
“It is regrettable indeed that this Interprovincial highway. is still—at *the dictates of railway unfon leaders to remain ‘out of bounds": for the very traffic on which otr_farmers and_other shippers are most depend- -ent at this time, and which is oper- ating at maximum capacity on other
~ highways-across Canada. The federal ©
government has an obligation-here, to see that this ban is lifted at once. There is reason to believe-that, had -yesterday's concession not been made, it would have felt obligated to honor {ts commitment te the province by taking over the ferry operation in this emergency. Until truck service is re-
_sumed, the obligation still stands and
{t isto he hoped our provincial auth-

their contacts with Ottawa.
In Critical Session Recently, one of the worst strikes
—to hit the US. in years finally ended when 35,400 mechanics and ground
service workers for five airlines de- cided to accept a settlement offer and return to work, They had been out 42 days and some hours. The strike came at the height of the tourist season. It infuriated thousands of persons and’ did considerable damage to ‘some in-
dustries. But it’ had little or no effect
on the nation’s economy .as a whole —r-on-the-lives -of-the-vast-majority* co Americans.. In this respect it dif- fered markedly from a railwav strike, which can cripple an entiré nation be- cause it is directly involved in the day-to-day lives of practically every-, one in the country.
It is particularly true In a country as large as Canada that the railway lines are life lines. Without them, freight traffic (foodstuffs and exports) is slowed down to a craw! or, in fact, halted. As. airlines seldom.carry any- thing but luxury freight. their failure to operate cannot be put in the same categorv at all. Probably that 1s why
“the White House or Congress never
did more than threaten to use the big stick at their ¢ sposal in the ending of the _altline strike. Canada'sParlia- ‘ment cannot afford to he so .com- -placent i handling the now facing: if
It is recalled that in the rail strike crisis August. 1959. Parliament passed within two days the Mainten- ance of Railway Operations Act which awarded to the workers the 4c-hourly increase in pay to which the com- panies had agreed and ‘referred the rest of their demand: to binding arbitration Meanwhile. if .required the railway men to go back to work. wrthin-48 hours—which they did. In the yipshot. the unions were awarded an average of 7e an hour increase

The Color Gamble
“According to a writer in the Fin- ancial Post, Canadians are not show- ing much enthusiasm about the in- troduction this week of television in “glorious livingroom color.” There's
no sign yet of the greatsurge in: set-
buying forecast by industry experts. However, color television maunfac- turers and retailers are preparing to. mount a stepped-up fall: advertising
_campaign to this end. The trouble is
that the consumer has seen the prices of. the. black-and-white ‘sets come down. until nowsja: good set can be purchased for around $260. Color sets range from $700. to $2,000, although there is a smal] set priced at $399 That’s still a lot of money to see the same program in color.
However; there is already evidence— that sales this year are going to be away ahead of those in 1965. For ex: ample. in the first six months, 19,000 color sets were sold; according to the
- Electronic Industries Association of.
-Canada—7,000 more than in all 1965. °
}
65,000 sets Will be eventually sold in Canada this year, which means that 31,000-46,000 color sets will have to
- be sold in the last six months.
The private stations, it is noted, have spent about $10 million-on color initially, and the CBC about $15 mil- lion. ‘The result is expected to show up in fairly. high quality’ programs this year. That. too, should provide a boost-to sales. CBC will betransmit-
‘ting about 85 per cent of its evening—
programs in color.
EIA is forecasting 1,330,009 sets in Canadian homes by the end of 1970... it also estimates that in the first vear,
