Highway Act In Committee

Amendments and revision oi the Highway iratlic Act occupied the Legislature tor the greatci poll of yesterday ailernooii when the House moved into committee of tlilel whole House to consider the bi .

Premier lilathesoii pointed out that in previous years the whole Act had somelimes been referred to a committee and certain chang- os 01' amendments made. He felt that the Act was of too important a nature to deal with it in this manner because of the many im- portant clauses lncluded therein. He made relcrciice to the Ontario Highway Traffic Act and suggest- ed that consideration be given to the incorporating of some of the sections of that Act in the statutes of Prince Edward Island.

Mr. William Acorn. First Kings, took strong exception to the word- ing of a clause dealing with "Con- version of a motor vehicle." The Act states that no one shall change the motor of his vehicle without first having notified the Depart- ment. He said that it would be a great inconvenience to a person on i a trip to have to notify the De- partment of a change in motors and suggested that the clause read so as to permit notification of the department after the change had been made.

Mr. Heartz' remarks dealt in detail with this subject, and gave results of surveys made in pack- ing plants across the country. Among other things he pointed out that too many Island hogs are marketed up to 180 lbs. and over, and thus the cuts are dis- counted heavily by the consum- ei

He emphasized that as the hog aiivziiices to maturity the pro- portion of fat to lean increases and many hogs approaching 170 lbs. would have been "A's" if marketed. say. at 145 lbs. The high proportion of the 171-175 lb. tings would have been "B" any- way on account of overfinisli. while a few of the 135-130 Ih. liogs would go down for over- finish.

New grades aimed at provid- ing the coiisumer with the pre- icrrctl weights of pork products have been proposed but its yet not implemented. Price differen- tials are not yet outlined. and it is not known what the pre- miiims will be. But the top tlrndc hog in the future will be betwcen 1.15 and 165 lbs.. if and when these grades are applied.

Dealing with the outlook for the industry. Mr. Heart: noted that last year Canada exported to the United States an average 13.000 head per week out of an

the Highway Traffic Act was too complicated for the ordinary citi- san to understand. He felt that the Government should redraft it in more simple terms. He also com- plained that there was too much speeding in the country. especially where school children were play-

Mr. Hitches reminded Mr. Sav- llle that it was now necessary for new applicants to pass an oral test regarding the rules of the road before obtaining a license. The Premier pointed out that R. C.

The egg market is stronger, and the demand is good. llcalers have. advanced the prices to the pro- ducers. All egg receipts clearing out to other Atlantic Provinces. and there has been no surplus for the past two weeks.

In this market report it is al- ways necessary to remind all those interested in the one million dollar egg industry to exercise the utmost care for this product. as eggs deteriorate rapidly and should always be kept in a cool place.

Far too many soiled eggs arel brought in from the pi'oducers.. The difference between the pricei of A and B is thirteen cents. A little wool would solve the prob- leni of soiled eggs-in other words.- -profit or loss. Again we wouldl like to remind you to pack youri eggs large end up. i
