Proposed Changes

"Changes which will give her a better performance are in con- templation and will be made this fail," Mr. Vaughan explained. It is expected to be able to increase the steamer's gower a5 an ice- breaker. Also t ere will be provid- cd on the upper deck an addit- ional saloon to take care oi pas- sengers during the winter months.

Asked with regard to changes for provision oi more automobiles. suggested to the authorities by Mr. L. R. Allen oi summerside, Y’, Appleton replied: "Mr. Allen 114d in mind using the life.boat deck for handling extra automobiles, and using an elevator between the two decks. We have advised him that we do not think the plan is practicable. The space he has suggested that we use for automo- biles, we propose to use for the ac-

the winter months." Two Ferries Next Summer

It is hoped. Mr. Appleton said. to have two ferries on the Borden- Tormentine service to take care of the tourist traffic next summer.

The question was raised with regard to wharf improvements at Charlotte- town. Mr. Appleton sidestepped this by explaining that the wharf was formerly owned by the Rail- wav but had been transferred, eight or ten years ago. to the Fed. eral Department of Public Works.

In the Marltimes. as in other parts of Canada rail transporta- tion demands have been consider- ablv increased as a result of the war Mr. Vaughan said. "The Rail- way." he added. "has put in manv increased facilities. such as ex- tension of sidlnas, new yards, sig- nal system and other services to enable us to hand'e what we think may be the peak movement down here. 'I‘raffic is very much great- er during this war than .durlhg the last war, on account of the larger amount of war materials which Canada l: manufacturing.“

He conceded that the installation of new facilities did not apply to Prince Edward Island, where re. qulrements were being met by maintaining existing services.

Grain. Rates

Mr. Vaughan could sec little prospect for any reduction in rall- way freight rates on grain pro- ducts to the Msritimes. The rall- ways, he maintained. must oper- ate on s business basis and the existing rates, considering the in- creased costs of 099150100 Bl"! maintenance as a result of war- time pricc increases, are as low as the traffic will bear.

At expense of Civilians, order

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2'7 -—(AP) —A new regulation issued today provides that American manufac- turers must accept orders tor war supplies for the United states, Britain, Canada, Russia, China and certain other countries, even though such acceptance will delay or ore- vent deliveries of civilian goods. E. R. Stettiniua, defence prior- ities director, issued use regula- tion in a broad revision of prior- lty rules designed to expedite the armament program. _ In the past, if a manufacturer accepted an order which carried a government priority, or preference, rating he wa-s required to fill it ahead of other orders with a lower rating or none. However, he was not compelled to accept the order if he did not choose to. The requirement forcing manu- factuiers to take orders was first included in a regulation placing pig iron under priority control, but it how is extended to all manufactur- ers, producers, distributors and dealers in the United States. The regulations said that defence orders included k “ w- of not only the army and the navy and other United States government defence agencies but also illose of Great Britain, Belgium, China. Greece, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia and Yugoslavia. It also includes government orders for delivery to any other country in the western hemisphere. Officials declined to say what will be done in case a company refuses to accept an order failing within the defence category" but it was indicated that a presidential refusal might result in cutting off his supplies for other orders

CHRONICLE

Machine shops Across Canada Being utilized

OTTAWA. Aug. 28 —(CPl scores of machine shops across Canada, hitherto maintained for the private use of industrial con- Qgrns, pro being tied ifliA) Canada's industrial wa); program under a. plan formulated by the Wartime Bureau of Technical Personnel Ln the Department of Labor-

The pulp and paper. mining. public utilities and petroleum 1n- dustries have already organized themselves to place their sh0P5 ll the disposal of the natlon’s war ef- fort in one or more of the follow- ing ways:

Accepting sub-contracts for the manufacture of machine parts for war industries;

Providing facilities for training of skilled tradesmen for the armed services ol- for employment. in War industry;

Maintenance and repair of army vehicles and other equipment in connection with trade traihink. The organization of other indus- tries in the same way is in progress, all with the object of making the maximum posfilble use 0i’ the equili-

‘ment and skilled manpower avail-

able in Canada.

The organization set up for the pubic utilities industry may be tak- en as typical of those set up or I contemplated for oilzers. It l5 called the “Public Utilities Wartime Workshop Board."

Its membership includes repre- sentatives of all organizations which maintain large and efficient workshops for the servicing of their own equipment, but which ordin- arlly don't, service any outside eq- uipment.

To Assign Soldiers

The board's training program contemplates the assignment of soldiers to shops of member com- panies to receive practical training as driver mechanics, electricians. fitters, motor mechanics and turn- ers. During training the soldiers will be in uniform and draw army pay and allowances.

with each group of soldiers as- signed to a shop it is expected the army will send n truck or c‘l"er veh‘cl¢ which needs complete over- haul. Thus the men will be able to use the shop equipment under the supervision of the regular shop staff and thus carry on army main- tenance work while learning their trades.

1n addition to the army train- ing and manufacturing lwtivifles . the public utilities industries repres- ented on the board have a civilian training program. They are train- ing a number of civilians in their srops in addition to the number they would ordinarily train for their own future staff Wqlllri?" mcnts.

The Canadian Pulp and Papel’ Association has organized its 9w" Wartime Machine Shop ‘Board wh‘ch is primarily concerned with manufacturing on a Bub-conflict basis.

Th‘! industry. however, is also co-operatlng in army training and at least one company has tak- en a number of troops into the bush to give them practical experience in operation of heavy tractors. in hauling operations and the servic- ing of Diesel engines.

Claim Moscow. Leningrad rail Line is out

BERLIN, Aug. 2a -r'rhursdayi— (AP) -German troops striking east a5 miles from captured Nov80l°d were claimed early today to have reached the Ileningrad-Moscow railway, cutting off the main sup- ply route of the menaced Baltic port.

The claim was issued by D. N. 3,, Noel propaganda and news ag- No details were given im-

The German account claimed the Soviet troops were encircled and destroyed in several days of bloody fighting.

Velikle Lukl is a railroad centre of 30.000 population 275 mile: west of Moscow and 250 mil-es SW91 of Leningrad. Before the war. it was the aerial crossroads of north- ern Europe. Its field served Russia, Germany and the Baltic countries

Capture of the town would put German troops on the north central front 40 miles deeper into Russian lines from Nevel. where il-ev had been reported previously.

The Nazi high command made no reference to German losses. which the Germans have reported as "comparatively low." A glimpse in- to one hospital train. given by n German wm- correspondent how- ever. indicated the Germans were not escaping unscathed.

Lahor’s loyalty Is unquestioned Says President

The cssage was released here tonight by the Montreal Trades and Labor Council and the Quebec Federation of Labor.

The ll essage added:

To this end it has sought to ,prevent industrial disputes, first, by negotiation of collective agreements and where this falls, by the use of government concili-- ation machinery.

I was fortunate in being at this particular rectory, for the church is of Pro-Norman days. The en- closed photo shows the saxon tow- er and walls of flint. raised over nine hundred years ago, We climb- ed to the tower, where I saw the ancient clock, and the huge old bells, now silent-when they ring again it will be for peace. or it will mean that Hitler is attempt- ing to invade us. 0f late yearn much has been done in the way of restoring this beautiful old building.
