Early in the year it was sug- gested that tho air mall service between Prince Edward Islund and IIul-iiax might be improved by arranging ior the Maritime Central Airways to carry mall on their regular Illghts between Charlottetown and Halifax viu New Glasgow. A resolution to that cflect was forwarded by this Board to the proper authorities and a reply was received to the ctIect that the cost oi subsidiz- ing that illght would be iar greater than the additional ser- vice would warrant. It was de- cidcd that no lurtlicr action should he taken in that connec- tion as we already enjoy good air mail service. ‘

We by no means ntend to sc- cept the situation as it now exists and when the time comes that. more shipping is available we still have high hopes oi re-cstablish- ing a direct freight and passen- ger service to and from the Mar- ltimes from Montreal.

An extensive amount ot dredg- ing has been done by the De- partment o!
