Miners Widow

‘Awarded $10,000

SYDNEY. N.S. March l2 (GP) _ A Cape Breton miner's widow, Mrs. William Bugden. was awarded 510.000 damages today

injection of adrenalin ildsninstercd by mistake while he was under treatment for a ciislccated thumb.

Mrs. Bugden sued Harbcrvlew Hospital at nearby Syd-Trey Mines. Dr. W.T. McKecugll. and nurses Patricia Bonner and Kathleen Sprlggs Ior 525.000 after her hila- balld dlcd following the adminis- tration of ultut his attendants thought was ilovocaiile to relieve the pain in his thumb.

Mr. Justice John Dorull of the Supreme Court c! Nova Scotf-a. it'l- his decision filed today. entered a judgment against the hospital and the two nurses but dismissed the claim B-EBiTi-it the doctor with costs.

The judge summarized the evid- ence ‘m his findings:

The doctor asked Miss Bcmnar to bring him n local anaesthetic. She asked Miss Spriggs Ior novo- came and was handed a labelled bottle but she did not lock at the label.

The doctor filled his syringe- and lln-Jscicd the liquid into Bugdezfs thumb. After a few ruin-tries he gave hlnl snot-her injection.

Shortly after the nurse had left the miner she was called back and fourld him “looking very badly." In 30 minutes he was dead.

"Tne result o.’ the mistake.“ the, judge found, "was that Instead oi an injection of 4 0.0.8. of a solu- tion of rlovocaixle which could do no harm other then produce unsea- lhesis. 4 0.0.5. of a solution of adrenalin, a. heart stimulant was injected.

"This would be e fatal dose in most cases and from the evidence I find that the death of William Bugden was caused by the injec- tion of this quantity o! adrenalin."

Six or seven shiips can be in the harbour at. tile some time and. three can be loaded simultane- ously. The loading of a ship a day is quite possible under the beet conditions. biut the average would be a day and a half. The capacity of a ship is on the aver- age, %.000 bushels and storage capacity of the elevator at. Chiur- chill is 2.500.000 bushels.

The distance from The Pas to (Ifhiurchlll is 510 mllcs over an excellent roudlbcd. I am inform- ed that. there is none better in Canada from the point of view of handling freight. This road- bed is furnished with eighty-five pound siecl.

An old railraader who travel-l led that line for years told me

that. it was quite possible to haul‘ of tile port for one season would member.

So we have a good port. We have modern elevator eqillpimoilt. with large storage capacity. We have a working railroad. Now let us look for a moment at the things wlllcll militate against tile fullest use of those facilities.

In speaking o! these ‘cillificul-M ties. I am speaking of things a9 they are in relation to my pro- posal that the port be used tn its maximum extent this present year of 1947. '

Shipping Seasons

There is. first. the handicap of its geographical position — and. contingent upon that, its cil-

port of (Jtlurchill?

Mr. Knight: It the Minister does not mind. I shall develop that answer inthe course of my remarks; or. if he prefers. I can give the answer now.

Hon. Mr. Chevricr: I did not moan ta interrupt the tin-n. gcn- tleman in his speech. and I air lqulte willing thee he should pro- ‘ceed. '

Mr. Knighm. ‘Ilhe next draw~ back. and a direct result of the first. is tile high marine insur- ance mic. About this we can do ;liii:le or nothing mxcept’ one thing. and that is to demons- trate the Ieasibillty of the route by its use to capacity over at. least one season; and I would lask hon. members to note that phrase "by its use to capacity over at least one season."

Insurance 1e an important cn--| slderaliorl, for lt determines ‘the maximum limits of the season ships may use, the cost of ocean freight borne lzry shippers. the cost of imports laid down »ati ‘Churchill. and in general the profits or the sailings of oper- ating the route.

The trend of the insurance ‘rates over the years has been downwards. accompanied by some cxtenslon of the limits of the season. The number of ships since 193i has not provided an adequate actuarial basis for wr- riving at a lower rate. Full use

provide that. The imperial ship- ping ccrrerilic-i- in its report of Julv l9. 1°37. stated:

“Except in the matter of salv- age it is the view of the com- mittee iha the l-liudson Bay route need not e considered as more risky than the St. Lawrence."

The fact til-at tile route never did have a proper test to cana- city has left many problems un- solved. and has prevented the ac- cumulation of accurate deifl f!" future guidance.
