-In the absence of president Chutes Hogan. vice-president Francis J. MaoNeill. who presided

.st the regular monthly meeting

of the Summerside Branch of the Canadian Legion on Monday evening, reported that the "burn-

ing ofxthe mortgage" party had been I. big success and end the committee and the Ladies

Auxiliary for their efforts in this respect.

He also reported on the cere- mony on Friday, October 16th in which the Legion loaned their band instruments to the High School for the formation of I. Can- adian Legion high school band. Comrade Earl Cannon, in raising the possibility of the re-orga.n.iza- tion of a senior Summerside Leg- ion band. reported that while at- tending thc Nova Scotla provincial Legion convention in Lunenburg recently he had met. a. coironet player who would be willing to come to summerside and play in a senior.band if employment could be found for him.

Aiicomimittee appointed to pre- pare a new scroll for the memor- ial table reported that a meeting would be held this week to final- ize plans in this regard.

A card party on F-rdday evening. sponsored by the Ladies Auxiliary. and a dance next Wednesday even- ing sponsored by the entertain- ment commlttee, are two items on schedule for the Legion Home, and tonight is meeting of cribbage play- ers will be held, at which last year's winners will be presented with prizes, a new committee will be appointed, and plans will be made for the tournament this fall.

lng for a clarification of the situa-J tion stated: "As you are well aware the rcccommendation of the Board of Arbitrators ,if acted upon,' would saddle your company with: a great increase in operating costs, which would probably result in an? application for an increase in rates. Under existing legislation at rate in-,

public hearing at which the neces- sity for such increase has been established".

In its letter to the Telephone, Company the Commission pointed" out that there was an apparent; disagreement between general and special legislation dealing with the matter under consideration.

The reply to the company stated: "An examination of Provincial legislation dealing with the matters in question seems to disclose that the provisions of the Arbitration Act must be construed as general legislation, while those of the Pub- lic Utilities Commission and of the Electric Power and Telephone Act, notably Section 26 of the latter, are special legislation dealing with the special problem of rate making for public utilities supplying tcle-. phone service or electrical energy. It is a general rule of construction that special legislation is not over- ridden by general. Therefore, if the Legislature had intended to limit the effect of section 26 of the Electric Power and Telephone Act, it would be expected to have expressed that intention in a de- finite manner”.

If Board Findings

The Arbitration Board had in its findings suggested I. 7V2 percent wage increase, retroactive to Jilly lsof this year, and the installa- tion of a five day week effective on January 1, 1954. The Telephone Company has maintained that it could not take any action which might. cause a rise in rates with- out official sanction of the Public Utilities Commission.

The Legislature meets this after- noon at three o'clock in the first special session called since the

Mathcson ”Govemment came into power. '

About '15 per cent of all fishermen in the I province depended on dried-salted codfish. Codfiah markets appeared static but markets for other fish could be amended. The report said the average fish- erman! income came to less than 31,500 a year. in both cash and kind. and that most fishermen op- 'ei-ated on credit advanced at the beginning of each season by mer- chant-suppliera. ,

More Sclenlisls , Needed For 1 Atomic Power l

VICTOR”, (CPI - A leading, Briti."-ii Coliiinbia iiliysicist said, Monday night that Russia "is out-! stripping us in scientists and en-p gineers" and called for more! scientists to develop atomic p0wer.'

Dr. G. M. Shriim, head of the, University of British Columbial physics department and directorl of the B. C. Research Council, told a public meeting:

"The shortage of scientific man- powrr in this country is a serious problem. Russia is outstripplnz us in scientists and engineers. TlieLr. scientific courses are longer and! ,larger numbers are being enroll- ed...

Dr. shrum said "it is safe to assume that the Russians are two or three years ahead of us."

New branches of engineering would be required with the de- velopment of atomic power, but Canadian youth were not meeting the challenge. He said Ontario will have to turn to atomic power for cnmmercial purposes by 1960 or else import increasingly large quantities of coal and oil from the United States and Nova Scotia.
