Shortage of Engineers

By BRIAN IELWOOD Canadian Press Staff Writer QUEBEC (CP)-Provincial and federal delegates to the conven- tlon of the Canadian Good Roads Association reported Tuesday a common problem - a serious shortage of qualified engineers to keep pace with the untry's giant road-building program.

A federal zovernment official described the shortage as "crit- ical" and provincial government spokesmen among the 1.000 del- egates said their work also is selug afffected by the shortage-

G. B. Williams, chief engineer of the development engineering

branch of the federal works department. said his branch "like most highway organisations to- day. is iacod with a critical shortage of engineers." . RECORD PACP

Despite the shortage of en- gineers. most provinces reported full - scale road - building plans. some of them record-breaking.

R. M. French, chief highway engineer for the Newfoundland department of public works, said that since 1910 the provincial gov- ernment has codcentrated on a program of road d..velopment "designed to end the isolation in which so many of our people live."

R o a d communications have been made available to some 150 communities where more than 100000-or one quarter of the province's population-have been connnocted with a central highway System.

Pecause of the nature of the country. there are sections that can never be brought into such a System, he said. The govern- ment helps people to move from isolated areas, more particularly from islands off thepcoast. C0-OPERATION

"Under this scheme." said Mr. French, "whole communities "have upmoted themselves and moved to larger centres of pop- ulation. . ."

Last year a start was I road in Labrador, S the Quebec border. The Quebec Rovernment has co-operated by extending its road system to the boundary and now it is possible for residents living along it miles of the Labrador coast to drive
