THE BANKS SERVING YOUR COMMUNITY

"...'.. the building

of my her ”

Many a farmer knows that initiative, hard work and the financial support of the bank can all play their part in developing a successful farming

operation.

One such man, a rancher in the West, recently wrote to his bank manager:

1.'I wish to express my appreciation of the way your bank has treated me through the years . . . the encouragement you have given me in the building of my herd.

I feel Vie. success we have achieved could

hardly have been obtained without your

intelligent supportfi

The farmer uses bank credit in many ways: to develop his land, buy livestock and equipment, market crops. Aiding Canada's food producers is an important part of the broad service the chartered banks perform for all Canadians.

"0. Main street of the pr switch to bus service will be a speedier service to Island patrons at approximately the same cost. "0. Another etrect would be im- proved carload services to island importers and exporters.

"'1. All repair and maintenance work in connection with the said bus services would be done here in Charlottetown. gas compared to most of the present train repair and maintenance work being done out of the Province. and new re- pair and maintenance facilities will be erected here to till this need.

"8. All drivers and workers 1or the proposed bus service would be Islanders.

Personnel Protected

"0. Present O.N.R.. personnel will not be much enacted by the changeover as they will be pro- tected under their seniority sys- tem. Any displaced to the bus, service will be the ones with least: seniority in the C.N.R..service. l

"lo. Approximately the same! number oi trains will continue to be operated but in iutura passen-, ger traffic would be carried by bus instead of as at present. ;

"1. There are presently approx-1

gaged in the running trades in this Province, with some 31 book- ing stations. l

"12. There will be no reduction in the number of such sintlons or station help.

"13. Every -last man who is regularly employed by the C.N.R. now will continue to be regularly employed under the new system. "14. While approximately 100 at the present C.N.R. personnel get; laid oi! regularly in summer now it is anticipated that not as many would be laid off in summer un- dcr the new system.

"15. The general scale of wages for employees will be generally lower under the proposed bus ser- vice than for C. N.R. employees. "l6. Bus service employees will probably be Union men but said Union will be a local one only. "17. Because of such they would not be effected by any general Railway strike.

Under Provincial Laws

”l8. Provincial laws and regu- lations will apply entirely to all aspects oi the proposed bus ser- vice here.

"19. Employees will be given op- , tion of either slaying on as C.N.i R. personnel or going over to bus' services, and those going over to

latter will be protected by senior-

ity system and Will automatically

be absorbed into train service

again at such times as busscs cati-

not operate.

"20. Proposed bus service will

not mean an end to present bus companies and schedules now op- erative here, some as the C.N.!t. truck service instituted last. year didn't mean an end to existing trucking scrviccs.

"2l. The Public Utilities Com- mission oi this Province will lay down the services which the pro- posed bus company is to operate in this Province.

"22. In event of possible strikes our Provincial Government could always seize the bus operations and continue such at its pleasure.

”23. There are a number oi alm-

llar bus operations carried on now under the C. N. R. and these have been quite profitable and success- iul.

. "24. During the general rail strike of 1950 such bus operations continued in service throughout said strike. '

"25. The proposal is for buses to operate on our highways as' long as they can during the ycar.l with records revealing about three weeks in winter and six weeks in spring the average periods when it is anticipated that rail services would have to be resumed in lieu

oi bus services. :

"26. No Sunday service is con-l tcmplatcd as the C.N.R. has no. Sunday service now. They would be prepared to operate such a service however it called upon to do so.

"27. There would be bound to be some ponilict with present I. M. T. schedules but the intention is to interfere with the latter as little as ,ossible. c

"28. The C.N.R. is not partic- ularly interested in taking over the I.M.T. but if I. M.T. with- draws irom the ilcld then the C. N. R. will be available and willing to substitute their own service ir.' lieu thereof. .

"29. The c. .R.. hnsnit comm-! ered .the point oi having its own. and I. M. T. tickets interchange-j able but agree it might be a good; idea, except. for the mainland: business to the Island concerning? which they will be in direct com-5 petition with the I. M. T. for thial business.

Service At Borden

"30. Buses will meet all train ierries at Borden. "81. Trains 39 and 40, being the" morning boat train from Char- lottetown to Bordon, and the evening boat train from Borden to Charlottetown will continue to operate daily except Sunday de- splu establishment of bus services. It will be noted that the Pulimana tot-In a part or these trains.
