it was suggested by Mr. Mac- Donald that the govet'nment's in- dtttztrial development f o r Georgetown may be to appease the people of 5th Kings for the taking away of an electoral dis- trict. He said “if the d<'velinp- ments at Georgetown are half as big as the government says. then Georgetown is the way up." he hoped the people of Georgetown Mil “not be fooled and go over their heads with municipal works that may be useless" if the pro- mised projects do not cmrte. CLARIFIES VIEWS

Referring to remarks he had made Friday. Mr. MacDonald said he was not against the es- tablishment of food processing plants in the province but wta against “the farmer getting the short end of the stick."

Mr. MacDonald suggested that the pnovvincdal government oo- operate with the federal govern- ment ln establish in a machinery rental system ‘ help the farmer cut his costs."

According to Mr. MacDonald. the government has failed to provide a suitable marketing system for the potato industry. c said "if the minister of agri- culture could institunte a work- able market plan for the indus-

He suggested that if half the money spent by the government on industrial government was spent on finding markets for beef and vegetables. it would be pttt to a better advantage.

Referring to education, Mr. MacDonald said it would be "almost impossible“ for this province to support two univer- sltles. He said thought should be given to this before a mis- take is made. He added "I think we can have two campuses un- der one univei-.9‘ by all our people.‘

cently it engaged the firm of W. H. Crandall and associates of Moncton to conduct a survey of the suggested site.

te major drawback in the project, which would be SiluHl(‘d adjacent to the harbour, appears to be the pollution problem and its future depends to a great ex- tent on a solution which is now being sought by a combination of the Department of Health, Town of Summerside, Village or St. Eleanors and the school dis- trict of Wilmot.

The proposal of a park devel- opment is believed to have been originally brought forward by a Summerside service club some 12 to 15 years ago and at that time a suggestion that the town purchase the land for the site was complied with but the park was never established. Instead the area was used as a d u m p site. Since that time reqtiests have been made that the town donate the land and that other land in the immediate area be purchased.
