A former resident of Charlot- tetown, J. Lorne McGuigan who now resides in Saint John, N.B. has been elected president of the New Brunswick: Young Pro- gressive Conservative Associa- tion.

COST UP $5,000,000

The substitution of gas tur- bines for steam will add about $5,000,000 to the capital cost of the $142,000,000 destroyer - con- struction program but this in- crease, sources said,’ will he more than offset by economies in lower operational and per- sonnel costs.

The gas turbines are smaller and lighter than steam plants.
