1 Eastern, Western Interests Tangle

0'I‘TA-WA (CP)—-(Eastern and western interests and the rail- ways tangled Wednesday-over the issues of equalizing regional freght rates on coal and lumber.

The board of transport com- missioners reserved decision on equalizing coal rates in the East and West——after a fight between the West and the railways—and adjourned until today an inquiry on the same question concerning lumber.

The hearings are held in con- nection with the board's long study on trans-Canada equaliza-

'tion directed by Parliament in 1952. Basic rates already have been equalized. ,

Coal. lumber and fruits have been singled out for individual study. The fruit hearing will be carried on here after the lumber case closes, likely today. OPPOSES PLAN _

As the lumber case got under way, the Canadian Lumbermen's Association —— representing east- ern interests-——opposed equaliza- tion of rates in the East and West. Eastern rates now-are gen- erally lower. -

CITY AND

The association said in a brief that it does not consider it “rea—

have a common mileage rate for both areas.

The lumber industry in Ontario and Quebec had been developed under the existing rates. Truck competition had been the major factor in holding down eastern tolls.

"If these rates are increased, we would have to look around for other transportation for our lum- ber," Ray Halliday ‘of Toronto, past president of the association, said in elaboration of the brief.

PARTICULAR NEEDS ,

V Dennis Headley, CNR general freight agent at Montreal, said the East and West rates were set to fit particular needs in each territory.

The railways are opposing equalization cf the lumber rates, as well as the coal rates.

Mr. Headley said equalization of the lumber rates would inevit- ably lead to loss of railway rev- enues. . ‘

Meeting Here Recalls U. S.

'0 Rand. In 1775

The great-great-great-gra‘n¢ son of Captain John Selman, who commanded the American priva- teer “Lynch” which raided the city of Charlottetown in 1775, met yesterday with the great- great-great grandson of Hon. Phillips ‘Callback who was taken prisoner in the paid. '

The historic meeting between Russell W. Knight, Marblehead, Mass., and Lorne Oavllbeck, Charlottetown took place at Government House under the auspices of Lt. Governor F. W. Hyndman.

Mr. Knight owns and operates the Everett Mills in Lawrence, Mass., and resides in Marble- head where he has done a great deal of research on the story of the privateers and the genealogy of the descendants of their crews. He brought with him piic-- tures of the Captains of the two ships, but he regrets that the Silver Seal carried off by his ancestor cannot ' be returned. While here he will visit the grave of the Hon. Phiilillvps Oalllbeck in the old cemetery on Elm Avenue. ‘ Mr. Oallbeck has also com- piled the stories of all his pro- genitors and their descendants on the Island and at this meeting the two descendants brought to a happy ending‘ an unfortunate incident which occurred almost two hundred years ago.

DeSable Group Found Tests Successful

Twelve teachers and two stu- dent teachers, met at Desable School for their third Study Group Meeting.

There was a discussion on the recent experimental te st for Grades V, IX, and X. This experi- ment proved successful a nd something similar is hoped to be conducted in another year.

Mrs. Eric Craig showed some very attractive spring posters and read several descriptive sente- nces from her child-rens' ex- ercises.

This was followed by a discus- sion on geometry, and a map dis- play by Miss Christine MacLeod, and Mrs. R/eginald MacLure.

The teachers divided into two

groups and discussed several senior grades. The senior grades formaulated a recommendation. to be forvxrarded to the Dept. of‘ Education asking for revisions inl the history curriculum. This was the last meeting for‘ this year bu.t everyone- hoped to have the same type of meetings in the ensuing year.

Hikes Boost In

OTTAWA (CP) —— Canadian l-a- bor unions were warned Wednes—l daylby a Progressive Conserva- tive and a Liberal senator that

further demands for wage boosts can only increase the cost of liv- ing and add to inflation. Senator John J. MacDonald, newly - appointed Conservative member from Prince Edward Is- land, said in the Senate tilirone speech debate that labor would be “well advised to hold the line."

Senator A. B. Baird (L—New- found) said labor unions. regard- less of the current recession, still are. seeking increases in wages and other" benefits. Higher costs in industry had almost priced Canada out of the export busi- ness.

“Organized ‘labor should be- ware of forcing prices, still higher —-where still fewer buyers wiii be available," he said. - MAIDEN SPEECH

Sena-tor Mac-Dona-Id, making his maiden Senate speech, said there are only isolated cases where labor is not paid enough. Probably 75 per cent ‘of the la- bor force was receiving adequate

Labor Unions Warned New

flation

incomes.

Senator Baird said the govern- ments intention to budget for a deficit is similar to a person making a purchase and putting otf paying for the article as long as posisibile.

Canadianis inherited from their forefathens the trait of living within their means “and if we could not afford it to do with- out." Canadians were losing this ancient virtue through trying "to keep up with the Joneses.” .

Now the federal government was ‘fdeliiberately and with inten- tion prqposing to budget for a deficit."

He said he was shocked. Deficit budgeting had never been the Ca- nadian way.

“Putting off paying our debts is a sure way of building up tu- ture grief.”

The one way to cut taxes was to reduce the cost of government. But there was no evidence of any sincere attempt to cut costs.

“What stands out in my d is ra-isinig all paternal pen-sio «s, no matter in wihat fie(ld—raiiisinig, raising, raising, without regard for who's going to pay, nor how, nor when."

Cut D-own Gap I In Cciusewciy At West River

Attempts to close the gap in West River Causeway provccl un- successful _Vicsterd;i_v iriien swift‘ moving tidal waters refused to be held back by the tons of filli (lumped into the opening throughi

bulldozers and carryalls.

However the 100 foot distance betwecii the two ends of the causeway was reduced to about; half and the Contractors, Cur-5 ran and Briggs will concentrate in building another stockpile in preparation for a second try to- day.

The West River, which has: its origin around Hartsville,; carries a large volume of water. 1

wide so that efforts to divert the whole stream through the nar- row gap is presenting a bit of a problem.

However engineers are confi- dent that with proper tide con- ditions and a sufficient amount of fill the job can be completed in a'short time. Once the flow of water is stopped; the going from there in is easy, they state.
