Provinces could become "the home of s happy. great people of pros- perous economy." , ,

Premier Flemming said he had an open mind on the suggestion for a commission and thought more of the council idea.

Premier Matheson said he too .WB.l lundecided but hoped some "common ground could be found.

There was common agreement among the provincial lesdera,thst business itself would have to hem- the giiater part of the cost of such a. council.

"Frankly," said Mr. Mscdornsld. "It's time to stop looking to the Government for money."

The Premiers considered tht idea in private for A short time ;before suggesting that it be defer- red until the next MPBT meeting. But all indicated they would qke it up with their governments.

Officials of thelnosrd who ins- tigated the meeting were jubilant over the results. especially since the provincial leaders agreed the meeting should be made an an- nual affair. They said it heralds a new era of Atlantic Provinces co- operation instead of regional jeal- ousies and might well result in an economic improvement.

The provincial heads also agreed to consider other matters brought

lup by the board.

Highway Problem

Mr. Macdonald said the idea of a uniform highway code was ex- ccllent, especially in handtsignals.

On education, it was agreed that co-operation could bring benefits on such things ss standardised text books. Claude Taylor. New Bruns- wick's education minister, said much could be gained by s uni- form education system.

Mr. Lewis ssid the brief was in-

lnocucus and said that there are

many difficulties. such as the paro- chial school system in Newfound- land.

Ex-ciieiiitiiiiiied Guest Al Meeting of S'side Firemen.

-Ex-Chief William B. MacNoll of the Summerside Fire Department was the honored guest last evening

meeting presided over by the Chief Abdon Arsenault.

Ex-C-hief Ma.cNell recently re- ceived from the maritime Fire Chiefs Association a certificate hon- oring him as a life membe of that body and although this framed certificate was a personal honor for him he said he felt that the department was entitled to a. share in the honor and presented the diploma. to the department to be maintained permanently by the members and kept in their room.

He gave a most interesting and witty report on his attendance at the fire chief's convention and in his well known and jovial manner he recalled the happy and inter- esting happenlngs which had taker. place at other conventions he had attended down through the years.

A committee was appointed com- posed of Fire Chief Arsenault. Cap- tain Jerry Doucette. secretary George Hogg, Glendon Desftoches and Herbert schurman to wait on the Town Council and arrange for a proper room that would in future be officially recognized as the "Firemen! Room."

A letter was received from the Fire Chiefs Association in answer to a recent letter written by sec- retary George Hogg asking why the local chief. Abdon Arsenault. had not been invited to the con-

Keniville Gets Nod From Fire Chiefs Ass'ii .-

, TORONTO, (CP) - Kentvllle. lN.S.. was chosen Monday by the -Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs in convention here as the town with the year's most dynamic fire prevention program in the coun- A -

Fire chief B. R. Wade of Kent- ville was asked to report to the convention on the methods by which his department achieved its enviable" record of no deaths or injuries by fire since 1045 and no citizens being forced from their homes by fire since i949.

Chief Wade said that Kentviliels

record was the result of seven yearI' hard work. A yearly fire prevention inspection of homes in the M00-population town and s 10- mile radius where more than 20.- 000 persons live. P The press and rsdio were en- listed to sid in the spread of fire prevention information while fire prevention is part of the town school curricula and pupilst visit the station regularly.

He told delegates thorough in- spectlon of all heating units has eliminated fire from this source since ma snd only one building has been damaged by an electrical fire" in the last six years ss the result of the modernising of wiring regulations.
