H. pox were sic-nominated as candid- ‘Itl for the Second District of Kings. Mic reference is evidently to tbs ents conducted last fall in I lend-asphalt road building, at a cost per mile of less than one-quarter the cost of the sand-asphalt roadwork dire under Mr. Mclrityres admin- iatration of the Public Works Dc- ent. ' ‘The resolution makes it plain that , the McIntyre wing of thc Liberal party is bitterly opposed to the poi- lcycnunciated by the party leader, ' Mr. W. M. Lea. at the famous Len- ten banquet, which included ‘n thorough investigation into the ef- ficient and ecci ‘ l systemxof road building." No such investiga- tion could be made without practical lxperimentation, and it is signific- ant that Mr. McIntyre and his co- horts have seized the first oppor- tunity of challenging their leader's attitude on this important question.

In condemning experimentation in low-priced highway construction they are opposing the policy of the

" Iliberal administration in Nova Scotia, which is commended in the

- Halifax Liberal ptola for "building ewerimental stretches last year in

_ diilerent areas “with the aim of finding out how -it stood up to con-

: ~ diticns and offindirig a more, econ- cmicsl method than that heretofore pguse, the cost of whichwas beyond the capacity cf thg province to pay."

-;- contracts have been let. by the Macdonald Government for the hardsurfucing of 1N miles. and 40 miles more remain to be let. By thc

-" and of next year some 50o miles will be hard-surfaced and by the‘ end of {Q31 it is the expectation that the hard-surfacing oi’ the main high- Hways will be complete. "Instead of the heavy cost of eighteen or twenty thtopsand dollars rmiie," says the Halifax qovemmeht organ,» "the average cost cf the present hard- turf-acing is $2,246 for» preparing the base and $6,789.58 for hard-surfac-

ing, or about l9,000~a milei’.

It will be noted that this expendi- ' ture is less per mile than on the trans-Canada highway projects TIwh-ich were bcllln in. this PPOVW-‘B last year, but considerably more than on the experiments made in ' this Province on secondary roads, where a hard base was not laid. “The upkeep of these roads," says 4r».

. At a recent meetingof the council of tho Charlottetown Boardof Trade a letter from the Canadian Cham- ber cf Commerce enclosing a brief prepared for publication‘ relative to threatened repudiation of govern- ment contracta on bondedf debtcd- ness was read. On motion of Dr. J. A. Clark, and Mr. R. E. Hutch the article was approved’ for publica- tion. The text of the communica- tion, which appearcd along with the report ofihe meeting in yesterday's Guardian, begins: "Arising out of the proposed legislation before the Ontario Government, the ‘Canadian Chamber of f‘ erce, represent-mg business interests throughout the nine provinces of the Dominion, is gravely concerned at‘ the danger to Canadian credit of any threatened repudiation of governmental son- tracls, ugi ements or dcd in- debtedness." '

' The localLiberal press has editor- ially defended the action oi the Hepburn Government in Ontario in this matter. But this is no reason why. in reporting the Board of Trade council meeting, it should suppress the text of the Commerce Chamber communication, as it did in yesterday's issue. Perhaps mn- contemporary docs not “approve? of the Board of Trade approving for publication anything that runs comi- ter to its own political propaganda!
