The Highway Problem

one of the biggest problems facing every Province today is that of highway con- struction and maintenance. Costs and re- quirements of motor traffic have been ris- ing steadily in recent years, and with them have come steadily increasing demands from the travelling public for new road projects. This Province is no exception, as lion. Doiigalcl M-acKin'non, Minister of Pub-

lic Works and Highways, pointed out inl

the Legisl'.iturc yesterday.

We are at present engaged in a long- range Tl'illl5'--Cilllildfl Highway scheme

which will see less extensive work done on roads this your but a much gramme of briclgc work. The most import- ant of these projects is across the Hills- borough, where the present bridge, Mr. lvlacliinnon anticipates. will not be stand- ing two yours hence. 'l'he most favored re- placement project at present seems to be a caiiszwjiiy, on which engineering data was obtained during the winter and in connec- tion with :which the services of Mt'. Mc- (Iulloch of Montreal. the consultant on the Canso causeway project. have been obtain- ed. It is understood that various sites have been cx.'imint.'d. and a report will be made both to the Federal and Provincial Govern- ments as to the feasibility of the proposed

- structure. Decisions concerning the details

of the Trans-Canada Highway route in the vicinity of Charlottetown will probably be delayed until this matter is finalized.

Other roadwork throughout the Prov- ince will. of course. have to be continued and Mr. MacKinnon in his address outlined the general policy in this connection. He emphasized particularly the expense invol- ved in road paving along standard lines. Where is all the money to come from? This raises one point which the committee on the Railway bus application might well consider, namely, the extent to which the Department of Transport would be prepar- ed to aid in road maintenance and snow clearance in lieu of maintaining an un- economic train passenger service.

The only alternative seems to be a fur- ther lncrease in gas taxes, which are al- ready unduly high. Whether the Railway comes into the picture or not, it is a fact that motor vehicle traffic will continue to expand enormously, and we cannot afford to halt progress by skimping on highway expenditures. Ifnduc economy in this re- spect would be building. not for the future, but for certain rctrogression and stag- nation.

Boosting Tlia' law

A special issue of ”Canadian Shipping and lViarinc Engineering News” has been received. dedicated entirely to the Royal Canadian Navy. Every aspect of the Navy's past, present and foreseeable future is clcuit with in authoritative articles. thus furnishing a complete reference medium on all naval and allied matters. Of special in- terest are the various statements of pol- icy nnd intentions contained in the articles by the Minister of Defense. the Chief of the Naval Staff and the Chief of Naval Aviation. The issue is published in the laud- able hope that it may bring fuller realiz- ation of the importance to Canada of free access to and use of the seas and, con- sequently. the need for an efficient. well- balanced Canadian Navy.

Hon. Mr. Howe is the best booster the Liberal Party possesses, and thinks no little credit is due to the part he and other members of the Government have played in the matter. At the Women's Liberal Convention he declared: "The Canadian economy has made the Canadian dollar the strongest currency in the world. All the measures the F cderal government has taken to control inflation since Korea have work- ed. The country has a lgi-eat prime min- istci". It; had a cabinet of table young mcn'."

; It is reported that the Nova Scotia Gov- ernment is contributing 85,500,000 towards the Canso causeway construction and is .paying the estimated h750.000 for re- 'location of highway approaches. The re- tmaining 1t16,500,00() will be provided by the Federal Government. This arrangement -on a 2-1 payment basis, with Ottawa bearing the lion's share of the cost- should be equally applicable to our Hills- bom causeway or bridge project when it gets under away. Under the Trans-Canada Highway agreement the" Federal oblig- ation only extends to one-half the cost; but the Canso project, for which tenders have been called. creates a new precedent. iwhieh Premier Jones will doubtless not be slow to take advantage of in his negotia- tions with Ottawa. 0 O O

SllllIKl.N'G THE 'l'E.l(.'lll-;lIS' PROBLEM

sir.-We were surprised to read Hon. W. E. Darby's suggestion that Prime of Wales College re- sume the graduation of grade eleven students with a license to teach and a second class diploma in one year. This would be retro- gresslun with R. vengeance, and may only be excused by the scar-1 city of teachers. This in turn is

that are paid to this most im-' portunt brnncli of our society. Inl this age of progress and enlight- enment. to suggest that any ac-' tion be taken no matter what. thcl

an nvalanclic of ill prepared flcdgllngs to occupy our schools is depressing.

After four years of limid sup-.

plieation. and licsit-ant. threats on the part. of the Teachers Federa-

ed. we believe, to supply an in-l crease of one hundred dollars from the deparlinent. uxth the suggestion that. the district sup- ply an extra fifty dollars. Thus the teacher who has had tlici tcnicrlty to tnke unto himself nl wife. and the further nudztclty to raise it inniily. is offered this munitlcent boost. lie is supposed to buy coal wltli a fifty pcrcent' increase in price. meal. from fifty to sixty percent increased, rents. and clothing and everything that goes to make up the bare ncccs-I slties of life, increased up to oncl hundred per cent. on n maximumj salary of around fifteen hundredt dollars. We have one of the best. teachers in the Marltimes who Isl in this very situation. and to bal- ance his accounts he has to sup- plement his salary by book-kecp- inng. etc. lie works sixteen to eighteen hours daily.

We did not hear one word men- tioned from either the Govern- ment. or the Opposition when representntlvey (and twice too many of them) had salaries and expenses raised five hundred dol- lars. making a. term of from a month to six weeks of a lot of fun and a little work equal to 9. whole year of a top grade coun- try teache '3 salary, nnm-.-ly fif- teen hundred dollars. We have no objection to our iupicscnrab ives raising their salaries. As for no we are concerned the sky may be the limit providing there is enough money to go around. However. when our timid tench- cra approach the authorities leek- lng an increase, with something resembling the aspect of the limo fellow-we cannot recollect his nune-raking old Squeerl for another helping of porridge they are told the Government cannot. afford it.

If our vocal Opposition. who are over Ills! with hue and cry after every ollcr of government spending, had raised any clim- iil: """ M ......'”'””t... .

Sir.-In your Public Forum some time ago there appeared n letter telling the people of the Island all the good the drngizers are dolrig.

n. tend to do, but. not H word about the harm they are doing: to the fishing industry. Now if there isn't something done to keep these dra;;gers off shore. say at least

Lion. t.hc Government has offer-icigm m”95v the 5”-5M”3'”5hC""ml

will have to give up altogether.

There is ll lot. of fuss about all the fish they are getting. one drngger in Souris went out in May. 1951, and ran around until the middle of June and finally they landed some fish-if one could call them fish-nsthe most nl them were suited for lobster bait. I llm sure the crew and the Fishcrmen'a Loon Board did well on that trip. There also was a net. torn, in fact. it. was so, bad they had to get. another new one.

Now we see where those for- slflhted gentlemen are going to send one out in April: maybe U103?

inre going looking for more lobster

ball.

Now as I mentioned about keep- ing the draggera off eight miles. I will explain why they should! be kept. off that far. it is the way to protect. the inshore fisher- men. when those dragsers so over the bottom they are tearing it. up the some way as if one had

a tractor and set. of narrows goinzl

through a newly planted -field of potatoes. Therefore they are tear- ing all the feeding grounds for the inshore fish. If there isn't some- thing done to keep those dransers off shore it will only be it abort time before there won't. be any in- shore fishermen left.

If the powers that be would set. ii. llmlt, they might be in time to save the inshore fishermen.

Glacial Drift Soil Erosion

The whole Province Ihowo, to some extent. the effect of the Pleistocene glaciation, though it would appear that the glaciation was not levere. There appears to be little doubt. that the contin- ental ice reached the western

-port. of the Province-west of

Summe side. In this one large Angular bould . of granite and gnciu are common on the sur- fnce. especially in the vicinity of East Bldeford and Mncrlellla Mills, where there is a notable concentration.

similar travelled rocka' can be observed in Late 10 and ii. and along the Western Road as far, at least. an Elmsdnle, though, in general, they are smaller and much less frequent. The "gravel" deposits of Huntley River and St. Anthony are of glacial origin,

though there may be some doubt

whether or not they are moraines or ciikera. In the latter deposits there is a large proportion of local rocks. but there on travel- led boulders also.

-A similar. but. smaller, deposit at Tyne Valley canals -, almost. entirely. of ill-assorted and atri- ated angular to nubangulnr boul- ders of granite, gnelu. quartzite, and achl.It.nll foreign to the Pro- vincc.

O I 0

East. of Bummer-aide the evid- enoca of glaciation are not as cieucut. and. in general. travel- led boulders are rare. except nlong the beaches. These latter can be explained by modern transport by ice from the st. Lawrence and from the Labrador drift, a. portion of which enters the Gulf of st. Lawrence. Boul- der cloy was observed to have general distribution over i the high ground between Kenslngton and Charlottetown...

At wlndon 3 low ridge, trend- ing northeast, contains coarse into fine sands. evidently water-aortcd. At. St. Peters, according to Chalmers. the earliest movement. to the eastward, produced the bay and was followed by n. northerly move- ment. Al; Buyfield. north of sour- is, some very doubtful strain iglo- clnl markings) on undstono over- lying the conglomerate there. may indicate a northern movement. Unfortunately, this surface also carries numerous "strain" produc- ed by a bulldozer and it was found ' , nsible to sort. the vari- ous markings with any degree of certainty.

Over the whole region from l-llllsborough River to East. Point the cover of drift. and debris is quite heavy. At. some places, Priest. Pond for example, the thickness approaches fifty feet. Boulders are common in this ma- terial. but they are always the sandstone ubiquitous in the Pro- vince. Binoe this rock cm hardly have withstood prolonged trans- portation, it seems reasonable to infer that the ice movement was sluggish and over no great dint.- nnce. Such information as is available tends to indicate move- ments in the northensterly direc- tion. on the other hand strain were found. at Kilmulr and Col- edonla. indicating a southerly movement. practically the reverse of the direction indicated on the north shore, and at. right. ankle: to the movement farther west.

0 O O l

It hnsibeen augggested that the NE-SW direction of the ice move- ment. over the Province can be correlated with drift ice passing through the Fundy channel dur- in: 9. period of subsidence. This would certainly account. for the northeuterly direction of move- ment. in the Province but; would not account. for the southerly movement. in King's County. It. is known that parts of the Acodlcn and St. Lawrence regions were depressed 150 feet. or more during the late Pleistocene (glacial per- iod). It. seems difficult, however. to reconcile the theory of ice. grounded on a bar across the mouth of the Fundy clianncl.wlt.n strain: at present 300 feet or more above sea-level. at. Caledonia; ea- pccialiy since there is evidence of uplift (upheaval) of only '15 feet. or thercabout.

I Nor could this drift ice be held accountable for the formation of a valley such as St. Peters Buy, as required by Chalmers. It seems simpler, pending more detailed study. to assume that the whole Province was covered by I nearly stagnant; sheet of ice. which had 3 southerly component. locally, in King's County...

with the removal of the Pleis- tocene ice the land evidently rose as indicated by the presence of the nixed beaches. It seems pro- bable. in addition, that there has recently been some sllghl: subsid- ence. The evidence for this is seen It. Black Bmks, Cucumpcc Bay, where the loo is actively eroding the edge of the peat bog ,nnd "boulders" of peat. are seen scattered about the beach. It in

The removal of the soil can re- sult only in the more rapid run- ning-off of water, and the trans- portation of larger and larger frngmentb of material from the land to the streams. In the ex- treme cue. the point. is finally reached where even the trees can- not maintain themselves. While the writer certainly does not wish to be held In alarmist: and to in- fer that thin ultimate end is in sight for the Province, he does wish to point. out that this to no more academic problem and bin already, nmmrently forced thl. abandonment of many farm, at has been I. seriously contrlbutlnf factor in their abandonment.

Aside from the question of lost of land there is ciao the still more immediate problem of cost of , oduction. It. is fully realized thnl: the farmers of the Province are, perhaps justifiably, suspicious of advice tendered by "engineers" who know little or nothing about farming. Nevertheless it. was im- possible to avoid speculation, of one worked over the Whole Pro- vince. as to just. how such cost. in cash. each spring found its wan into the streams and the sea by autumn. Many farmers. when questioned, freely admitted that they considered they lost. 3 con. aldernble portion of their fertiliser in this way, but. each apparently considered it: his own particular problem and restricted to his own form.

The writer has sufficient faith in the common sense and ingen- uity of the farmers of his native Province to believe that. whet the general nature of the prob- lem in call d to their attention they can at ck it. and arrive to a solution. It may be that. con- tour farming. hedging and olhei of the devices of the soil conser- vationist. on a co-operative bull will provide a. solution.
