Those Bridge Projects

'I'lir0u;_;h Public Works .\liitistci" Fottrnicr and Rccunslrtictitm .\liui.stt-r Ilowe the pet)- plc of Cziuipbcllton, .\‘. 1.1., have been promised a_ survey of the Restigotiche River with a view to building a bridge to Cross Point. This is a rcuiititlcr 0f the fact that we arc still waiting for proniisctl action iit connection with Our bridge projects in this Province. 1n the last I-‘cderal election campaign, when the Con- servzitives announced their policy of a national Charlottetown-Borden highway to include bridges over the North and West Rivers as an essential post- "ar ttttdcrtaking, Liberal cam- paigners catiiplztiuﬁl that this pledge by Nfr. Bracken ntis onlv an attempt to steal Liberal

thuntlu": that there was no need to put the ’I‘ot"ics in to gut thcsc l)1'ltl‘,10s hccattse surveys had alrczitlv bccii undcrtttltctt and plans and

specifications were bcing made. This was evi- dently in the minds 0f the Jones Government's Advisory Reconstruction Committee, for in its report tabled at the last session of the Legis- lature the Counuittre rccotutitcntltxl among oth- er things:

(tit "Immediate construction of the Brighton Bridge which will assist the popula- lion of the $011111 Shore area t0 overcome some of their loug-statiditig transportation difficul- tics. The Ciilhlfllllllflll of the Brighton Bridge wottld enable a large valuable farming area to haul their products to Charlottetown for ship- ment by rail or water."

(‘bl "Construction of a lYest kiver in ordcr to clitninztte the Rocky Point ferry service, which, we understand, now operates at an annual loss of approxim- ately $15,000, which amount is the interest on $500,000 at 3 per cent. Such u. bridge would serve a large arca twelve months out of the year, and would also avoid the possibility of a bad accident 011 the Rocky Point ferry which might be caused by over-crowding, by fire, or some other hazard."

These facts have been sclf evident for years, and thcre is no question but that spokes- men for both parties have given repeated as- luranccs that the projects would be under- taken.

In the Legislature last session, however, Mr. ll. R. llcll asked sortie questions with dis- appointing results. Ilc asked:

I. To have tabled “all correspondancc with the Dominion Government or any of its Departments in reference to the building of the Brighton Bridge in fulfillment 0f Prom‘ 19¢; tirade in 1945 to have this bridge pro- ceeded with."

The answer to e.

Isle asked: (2) "Have the experts brought here t0 tualte examinzitiotis and a study of the project, made reports thereon P" Ans- wer: “Mr. McVey of the New Brunswick Government was COIISIIIIGCI‘ with.”

To Mr. Bell's request to “table said re- ports if made and also table all plans, specifi- cations and estimates of cost of suitable liridgcs," the answer was: “Specifications submitted arc confidential."

New Brunswick politicians do not do things that way. Being disbelievers in sec- ret diplomacy they are publicizing the fact that a survey of their bridge requirements has been promised by two responsible Federal lVlinist- ers. Chances are they will make more pro- gress than bv pussyfooting as the Jones Gov- ernment has been doing on this issue ever since it took office.

The Fisheries

__ Unrcviscd reports to the Federal Depart- ment of Fisheries show a total sea catch 0f approximately 434.300,000 pounds of fish and shellfish, for the first six months 0f I946, with a poiut-of-lzinding value amounting nearly to 25225750000. The figures meant a drop of over 1(.i,700,00o pounds, on the catch side, but a gain 0f well over $.’.1_)o0,0oo in the return to the fishermen for their work, as compared with I945 results.

Each of the thrcc hlaritiitie Provinces Showed increases both iii catch and landed value. 'l‘hcre was catch reduction in British Columbia but the decrease did not bring dollar decrease with it but, rathvr, a fairly substan- tial gain. fn Qucbec lhcre was increased pro- duotion but the fishermen did not fare quite so well financially as they did a year ago.

Nova Scotia topped the fivc sczrfishcrics provinces both in aggregate catch and aggre- gate landed value. The province had landings of n0; fa,- shim 0i‘ 171,900,000 pounds to its credit, close to 10,000,000 pounds more than in January-June, '45, and they were worth about $10,700,600 to the fishermen, a gain of bet- ter than $1,100,000-

Ncxt came British Columbia with catch totalling 111,000,000 pounds, in round figures, and landed value $5i950,000- The Pﬂfllic money gain over the '45 total was $725000. The decrease in catch, mOre than 40,000,000 pounds, was mainly due to smaller herring pro- duction. ‘

$1,300,000 for it, while in Prince Edward Il- land the catch was 17,900,000 pounds and landed value slightly less than $1,900,000. In both these provinces, however, fishing is al- ways on a very small scale during the first quarter of the year so the production and value figures for January-June are only technically the returns from six months 0f operation.

In Quebec's case there was a catch in- crease this year of more than 3,200,000 pounds, as compared with landings in the first half of I945, and a value decrease of less than $50,000. Prince lidward Island fishermen increased their catch by about 1,725,000 potmds and its landed value showed a gain of $_f,_’0,000.

Lord Nelson's Pension

For 1.10 years lhc licirs of Lord Nelson, beginning with his elder brother, have receiv- ed a sum equivalent to $20,000 as an annuity from (jrcat Ilritaiifs treasury. The New York Ilrrald Yiri/iunr reports that lluglt Dalton, Chancellor of the Exchequer has antiounccd iii the Ilouse 0f Commotis that the Labor govern- ment planned to introduce legislation to end the annuity after the death of the present 33-year- 0ld Earl Nelson, or of his tiossihle surviving heir, a brother of 85.

It has for centuries, of course, been the policy of a grateful Britain to make grants of money to its successful tnilitary leaders. It is interesting to recall that \\'inst0u Uiurchills great ancestor, john Churchill, after his victor- ics in the War of the Spziitish Succession, was given in Ifoz an annuity of an amount equal to the long-lived Nelson payment. A total of some $400,000 went to various field marshals and- admirals of \\'0rld \\'ar l. but a Labor government has consistcutlv refused to reward financially linglantl‘: laud, sea and air leaders of the recent war.

Charlottetown is not alone in receiving civic bouquets. Montreal has received two pats on the back by mail. The first, aimed at the city's public works department, is from the Junior Chamber of Commerce of Canada, and praises the city for its annual lXflI1llflCHl10l1 campaign. The second. from a clergyman from south of the International border, applauds the traffic division of the police department for its good work.

British farmers have complained that Canadian Wheat Pool delegates, Itclping Mr. Strachey to organize his wheat agreement, dealt too much with the Socialist Politicians: too little with llritish frirutcrs, says a Toronto contemporary. The Wheat Pool delegates came to the conclusion that British agriculture was highly pleased with the Labour Government. Actually. all the eviden“ from, Britain is that this is far from being the case, and that Brit- ish farmers know that they- have been double-

WARNING T0 OYSTER EATERS

Sin-Attention has been drawn from ti-me to time to the fact that, the waters contiguous to Char- lottetown are heavily polluted as a result of the raw sewage enter- ‘ing the harbor. Shellfish taken fro-m such areas are prohibited to be exported by the Federal De- partment of Fisheries. However. oysters are frequently taken from these areas and peddled, both in the shell and shelled, from lic-use to house locally,

It is most unsafe to eat; such oysters. in a raw state especially, and purchasers should assure themselves that the source of sup- ply is free from contamination.

Cases and deaths of typhoid fever have been traced in the past, to this source and lt is to prevent a recurrence that the pub- lic are strongly advised against purchasing and eating raw oysters unless they know posltlvely that they have been gathered from clean arr-as.

Most, if nnt all, oysters peddle-d throughout the City from door to door come from these polluted areas and the general public, all too frequently. are unaware of this menace to their health.

Assure yourself that duct i-s safe. Don't take with your health.

FOR SECOND PRINCE ELECTORS

Sin-The desperate straits _t0 which the Liberal political machine ls being driven in the second d1:- trict. of Prince County, in an 0b- viotisly futile albempt lo ward off ti “third-in-a-roiv bye-election dc- fcut is well emphasized in the lull page advertisement appearing in Tuesday September 10 rssue 0'1, the Summerside "Island Farmer.

The purported coverage of his record as Premier 1n this seventy- rhree pninl, political autobiog- raphy might well serve ‘to make Premier Jones’ name t-mmortal among Premiers of this or any other Province were it not for the

the pro~ chances

simple fact that moot of these statements are more imaginary than real, and the inaccuracies

appended, make this whole state- ment 0f claims most ridiculous throughout, The electors of the second district of Prince are _n0t. rated as being unduly gullible, and can be d ended upon to ex- ercise sane ju gement on election day despite such evidence nf high pressure political buffoonery.

It may not he out of place however, to take a pot shot or two at this rather extended manifesto issued from Llbernl headquarters. We wlll do so according to classiftc- atlon and number. and wlll first refer to: Public Health-Claim 5.

T. B. Clinics were in operation years before Premier Jones ever thought of being Premier. 'I‘ravell- ing diagnostic and X-Ray work was instituted in 1926-27.

Claim 6. V. D. Clinics were eslahliShcd in the Sanitarium and Summerside as fnr back as 1931. What did the Jones Government. have to do with that?

Education Claim l. The only change in this instance ls that of substituting the name "Deputy Minister" for “Superi-ntenderit" of Educational and without any apparent improvement noticeable yet. The most notable change is that of doubling salary and abcl- ishing Latin from the one room schools.

Claim 4. Dr. McMillan inaugu- rated this plan when Minister of Education 1931-1935, when he est- ablished the first advisory Educat-

ional Council.

Claim 6 and '7. "Eitvpanaion of Library" for which Dr, McMillan originally secured from the “Carnegie Corporation" n lzrant of one hundred and fifteen thousnnd (115,000) dollars a nice foundation from which lo expand. eh?

Claim 8. Was fostered by Dr. McMillan fifteen years ago, and carried in the city and mnny coun- try schools for decades.

There ls no rush. no hustle or bustle, men and women go about. their daily routine calmly. quietly and without fuss or strain. There are no traffic lights 0n the "I'M" thoroughfares in Charlottetown, none that I noticed, and I move pretty much all over town. They re not needed; _ motorists come to busy intersections, slow down, look about them cautiously and con- tinue on their way. There is a considerateness on the P01”! 01 drivers seldom seen elsewhere. With so many American IQUFISIS visiting Prince Edward Islnna dur- ing the summer months one won- ders, however, how much‘ longer this pleasant state of affairs will last.

Reading 1n the moi-nrng paper that General Montgomery was to vlslt Charlottetown I phoned the city editor to flnd out lf he was to hold a press conference, I had ln mind an exclusive story. How- ever, the Generiil. I was told, was to hold only one press conference whi-le in Canada and that in Ottawa. Just the same, said Col. Reid of the Tourist Bureau. if I wanted to accompany the few Canadian newsmen who were to follow “Monty" around town the inspector of the Mounties could fix me up with the proper crcderr- tlals. I thanked him for his offer but said I'd puss 1t up.

Prince Edward Island ls aboul. 115 miles long, has a population of around 100.000 and is beset with just about all the problems of other provinces. It is pretty much rural with dairy and fox farms dotting the lovely landscape.

You can buy n steak dinner 1n Charlottetown for flfty cents but gasoline, on the other hand, costs you thirty-six cents a gallon. (a fifth larger than ours, by the way). Ice cream and candy bars are very scarce here. A painter ln these parts. I was told, gets 40 cents an hour and other skllled workmen 1n proportion. The housing short- age is about. as acute here as else- where in the Maritime-s although there is quite n little building go- ing on, certainly much more than one sees 1n New England.

‘There la a considerable mileage of black top highways but even so there are far more dirt roads than we have. The Islanders realize lhls and pol-nt out that with the war over the authorities plan to go ln for road hulldlng on a large scale.

I saw some flne Ayrshire cattle 1n my travels, also some lovely rural homes. A surprisingly large number c-l’ farms are not yet elec- trified but now that wiring and supplies are more plentiful lines are going tn be extended.

Practically every other fnmlly 1n this province by the sea has relu- tlives or friends 1n the states. many have been to Boston and other parts of New Enzland and know- ing what life is like with us, and n-f our higher standards 0f living, they are anxious that Prince Ed- ward Island forge ahead.

Folk here have thelvr own pro- vlnclal government. elect their own leaders and members of Par- liament and are a "homey", demo- cratic people.

There ls a great scarcity of teachers back home 1n Vermont and there ls also a great scarcity of teachers here.
