Presses Strongly For Bar Ferry

In the s itation for better trans- mrteéion :d tween Prince Edward lid

on this prob . At the annual meeting of the Federation held last June, a resolution urging an additional car-ferry steamer at Borden was resented to the Fed- eration meeting“ by Institutes of ce Edward Island.

The Federation brought the re- solution to the attention oi the PNDer authorities. At the general meeting of the Federation held during the recent Farmers’ week Meetings, this matter was again discussed and a formal resolution was drawn ua at the Central Far- mer's instltu Meet , and again forwarded to the Fe eration Ex- ecutive for further action.

Wh less publicity has been given the work of the Executive

a of this body in connection with

this matter than that" accorded many other of important public associations, the Executive, never- theless, has been very active in this connection. Representing as it does the main farm organizations on Prince Edward Island and di- rectly the farmers of the Pro- vince, the Executive feel that it had an important part to play in the demands ior improvement in the transportation facilities be- tween this Province and the Main- nd. Assurances were therefore given to other organizations mak-

g these same demands, and let- ters urging immediate action wen dispatched to the Primo Minister of Canada, Honourable W. L. Mackenzie King; Honourable J. L. Ralston, MlnLsler oi National De- fence; Honourable James G. Gar- diner. Minister of Agriculture. In addition, the Prernler oi Prince

It is most discouraging to know there is s keen demand for our products and we cannot avail our- , selves o! same owing to trans- portation difficulties. We llare not hope that our present steamer can continue her round-the-ciock movements without serious dis- abilities.

On behalf of our farmers we anneal to you for support in what we regard as our supreme crisis.

Honourable J. L. Balaton, Minister of National Defence Ottawa.

Dear Mr. Ralston;

Enclosed herewith lease find a

co y oi my letter ad ressecl to the

Minister, Honourable W. L- Mackenzie King, regarding our transportation problem. This letter is self explanatory.

This matter was first brought to the attention of our Provincial Federation of Agriculture last June by one of our associated organ- izations. viz: The Federated Wo- men's Institutes. The matter was again introduced by the Farmers‘ Institute meeting held during I-‘ar- mcrs‘ Week recently.

To put the matter mlldlv the present transportation facilities are oi very grave concern ‘.0 our farmers. The recent temporary disability cf the car ferry has brought home to our pfoplh the tragedy of what a complete dis- abllitv would mean.

During the summer months it is impossible for us to et. in and store sufficient supp ies of coal and many other indispensable pro- ducts. It. requires no stretch of imagination to realize the terrible plight in which we might be plac- cd if our present steamer became disabled,

We feel the Government has al-

Rt. Hon Mackenzie King,

Prime Minister of Canada, Ottawa. Dear Mr. King:

At a meeting of the Prince Ed- ward Island Federation of Agricul- ture held last June the matter of adequate transportation for our Province was fully discussed, and a. strcnglél worded resolution call- ing on a Federal Government to provide for the building of a new car-ferry steamer was adopt- ed unanimously. At Farmers‘ Week meetings held recently this mat- ter was again up for serious con- sideration and another strong re- solution was presented and adopt-

At the urgent request of the Federal and Provincial Depart- merits of Agriculture our farmers are preparing for an all-time re- cord oi food reduction in so far as labour cond tions will permit. We believe the groductlon of food may be one of t e most important fac- tors in bringing this awful con- flict of war to a successful con- clusion. Our farmers are, there- fore, investing and borrowing to the limit ior greater food produc- ion.

With this programme in mind. there is a general feeling of alarm in the mind of our farmers lest we be left without adequate trans- portation facilities. Failure to get our products to outside markets would result in economic disaster to our fanners, and indeed, to

racticall every other citizen of his Prov nce. We regard this sit- uation a.s one of the most serious that has ever threatened this Pro- vince. We feel there is far too much at stake to take any further chances. Prior to wartime condi- tions we were able to secure lﬂrse capacity steamdlip facilities for the movement of bulk freight that are not now available, We are left with but one connecting link with the outside world so far as freight movement is concerned. and this of a verv doubtful value.

Our present car-fen; steamer has performed a. splen id service under very difficult conditions. but we cannot reasonably hope for a continuation of this service much carrying
