Senator Barbour Reviews Transportation Problems
Saiisfaction at the menl in the Speech from the TIl1'(lllP that the construction of a iieu ferry to operate between Prince Edward Island and Nova Si-oiia would be undertaken early in liic present year was voiced by Hon George Barbour in a recent IDOPFII in the Senate Chamber It (titans
'Thi: is indeed welcome news 1... the people of Prince miiard Island. even though it is long overdue." Sen- slor Barbour said. "From the ilmP of Confederation transporta- tion has been one of our troubles. and it still is our No. 1 problem. We have at the present time oper- iiilni: between Burden and Cape Tornirntine one of the finest ice- hi-:-.-ili-r ferries in the world. It is s IIIILZP boat. designed to carry pas-oiicers. automobiles and rail- ua) llifllgllf. cars. During the sum- mer months this large ferry has In make the crossing day and main in order to avoid traffic con- Erslltln. and even then long lines nl aiiiomobllol are often waiting Iur their turn to go across.
'1 think it would be the part of in--I--in Inr the Department of 'ri-iii-nnri In provide a ferry de-
rnnre than one-third as much as Ill? Ir:-breaker cost. and which i-niiiii be operated. I am sure. at nnF'I1li'fI its cost. Such a boat ii-niiiii i-arry as many motor cars as the larger ferry does. and as a n-suit we would get many more rem at service not of the larger ierrv '
For quite a number of years the Canadian National Railways and the llcpsrtment of Transport kept the rate for trucks on the ferry so high that it was really prohibitive. I suppose their idea was to get as murh business as possible for the l'llIW8.V. in 1939 another terry rnmmi-need operating between Vfond island.

PASSENGER TRAIN SERVICE
Before Confederation there was In railroad on the Island. and I believe that construction of a ;3ll"ialI'wasp one of the deciding actors in bringing Prince Edward island into Confederation. The Lailroad is still there. of course. util has now lost the largest part gl 05 passenger business.

On a railroad track that speed is high enough; yet in many places large transport trucks move along the highways at fifty to fifty-five miles an hour. and when they get on a grade, are dangerous to passenger cars which try to pass them.
"In some respects-two. partic- ularly-Prince Edward Island has changed very little since Confed- eration. The rural population still constitutes about three-fourths of the whole population. Many of our young people leave the island for other parts of Canada and the United States. There are -ll.l5l people In the age group between one year and 19 years. but only 31.515 between the ages of 35 and 69; so, assuming that one-half of the latter are females. the work- ing population in that age group is only 15,756.
"The remarks made yesterday by the honourable senator from Fredericton (I-Ion.

Presentation To Livestock Judging Team
The Brookfield 4-H Calf Club Livestock Judging Team of Sterl- ing Macfiae and Jackie MacRae was officially presented with the Maritime Federation of Agricul- ture Shleld. February 21, by Mr. Roland MacDonald. Director of the Maritime Federation of Agric- ulture.
Mr. MacDonald praised the work of the young people and stated that if the members did not learn anything about caring for calves and yet learned how to conduct a meeting properly and to express themselves clearly. than club work was worthwhole. He further stated that young pco ple of today's clubs will have to carry on farmer's organizations of tomorrow. He pointed out sev- eral things which the Federation oi Agriculture has been doing for the farmers; including a recom- mendatiun for the review and change of the tariff structure con- cerning potatoes. He pointed out also that Maine potato producers were being subsidized by the Can- adian Government in that they were trucking potatoes across to New Brunswick and shipping them by rail to Montreal. He also stated that railway e ' ees were asking for the sale of mar- garine in Prince Edward Island and likened this to a situation in which the farmers of Prince Edward Island would ask the railway employees to take lower wages.
Mr. MacRae replied for he and Mr. Barrett and thanked Mr. Mac- Donald and the Federation of Agriculture for the shield and their individual pendants. The presentation was made during the regular meeting of the 4-H Calf Club at which Sterling Macftae presided and Boyce Stetson acted as Secretary. The club decided that they would have a Shorthorn class of calves along with the Ayrshire class. Morris Deacon. Queens County Fleldman ina- tructed the members in the les- son for February and showed slides most of which were taken at the last Rural Youth Fair. The evening was brought to a close by a delicious lunch served by Mrs. Earl Macliae.

And that he is trying to block your self-help af- forts diatrustfully, not under- standing hlmself at all. Obviously Mike is a neurotic fellow, without aptitude for friend- ly tender acceptance of a spouse. Unable or afraid to love, he re- jects intimacy of spirit, then feels guilty or anxious about his chur- lish performance, and rebounds to make his dependency attach- ment to you secure..by supervis- ing your actions, dictator fashion. His gloomy exhaustion at home. after man-killer hours of work. is a defense mechanism of sorts -not an inevitable price of devo- tlon to duty, or pursuit of suc- cess. If he were emotionally or- ganized to share himsel' in a real relationship with a wife, he would contrive irresistibly to handle his medical practise efficiently. in such a way as to allow for regu- lar social respite with you. And when over-worked occasionally. as happens to all professionals. he would be receptive to your in- terest, nonetheless. not glumly spent. on getting home.

Or I constitutional bias towards pars- noid distemper. In any case, he ought to face his serious need of psychiatric help, to put him on the road to total health and hap- piness. and thus avert a later life crack-up.
