' From Lake Ainslee,

Cape Breton.

Relative to the proposal that el-

ectric power from a} proposed plant at Lake Alnslee. Cape Breton. be mado available to P. E. I. a Can- adian Press ddrpatch states: Dcvel- opment of Lake Alnslee as a source of hydro power for the Province of Prince Edward Island as well as rur- al sections of Cape Breton is seen here as a possible factor in support of the project. It was understood here today that Island engineers were interested in the proposition and had inspected the proposed power site. A conference of steel and coal company officials and local interests is m be held hare on Nov. 5th to thresh out the Lake Ainslec scheme on the basis of powcr costs to the city of Sydney.

Interviewed, Premier Lea stated he lind no knowledge of such a project. however. if electric power could be provided more cheaply from Cape Breton for the rural districts, for which it is not now available, the Govemment would take the matter ‘nto consideration.

The Moncton Transcript editorially states: The solution which has been suggested and which now is under examination by engineers is the im- portatﬁon of hydrmelectrio power from La-ke Ainslcc, in Cl-pe Breton. It is eatLrnated that Prince Edward Island can use immediately about eight million k. w. h. annually, and this with local usage in Cape Bret- on is believed t/a offer a sufficient market to justify the development of the power site. on g low rate bas- is.

British Y. M. C. A. Of- ficial Dicusses In- teresting Plan With Provincial Govern- merit.

Visiting the city yesterday were Major Cyril Eavin, general secretary, migration department, National Council of Y. M. C. A., of London, England and Mr. Alexander McLu- en, superinwndent of the United Church hostel at Norvul, Ontario, who have consulted with the Provin- cial Government in connection with a plan, now working successfully in other parts of Canada, of bringing British boy immigrants into the three Maritime Provinces.

The visitors explained that the Mi- gration Department of the Y.M.C.A. for England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales has been sending boys icf the Proper type to Canada in co-opcru- tion with the United Church organi- zation ln this country for the past three years. ‘These boys are partly trained in Great Britain and are than sent out under a conductor in parties of from 35 to 50 at a time and are put up at hostels specially provided in central parts of thc country. 0n the waFout the con- ductor studies the individuals to ﬁnd out their qualinicatlons, etc. They come to the hostel and the hostel has a list of suitable farms on which they can be placed-The conductor and the agent at" the hostel discuss the places suitable and the boys are sent to the most likely farms and fa- mllies desiring them. The remuner- ation ranges from $10 to $13 a month, with statutory holidays. Only $2 ii month is paid tothe boy for pocket money, the balancc beinl remitted to the hostel where it is placed in the savings bank to the credit of thc boy- When the boy has $500 to his credit he is entitled to a loan of 82500 from the British Government for 22v years, two years without in- terest and the subsequent 90 years at five per cent. per annum. ‘This en- courages boys with ambition to work assiduously and to look forward to a time when they shall be in the po- sition of successful farmers them- selves.
