OTTAWA (CP)—A transport de- | partment team now is on the spot

|investigating the possibility of more frequent ferry service be- tween Borden, P.E.I, and Cape Tormentine, N.B., Transport Min- ister Hees said Wednesday in the Commons.

He was replying to Heath Mac- quarrie (PC—Queens) who sug- gested that existing ferries opera- ting between Prince Edward Is- land and the mainiand make more trips.

Mr. Macquarrie also asked for faster rail service between Monc- ton, N.B., and Cape Tormentine. The short trip now took and “‘in- terminable time.”

Charies R. Granger (L—Grand Falls-White Bay - Labrador) said more radio-telephone sets are re- quired on the Labrador coast. The communication problem was worse than in the early days of wireless.

He also said small gravel air- strips aré needed in Labrador and that the airport at Gander,

Nfid., badly needs a hotel.
