The little hos-‘css met h=r

Mr. Kickham in reporting on the year's activities of the executive. told the large and representative gathering that thc rcsults of the Board's Work in 1948 were quitc evident in the survey of Souris harbor now underway which prom- ises to result in a million dollar harbour and wharf improvement project. ' ‘ '

Many important resolutions were passed. One to the lion. C. D. Howe. Minister of Trade and Coni- merce, asked that the projected Trans-Canada Highway he routcii in King's County to connect East Point with Wood Islands ferry tcr- minal. via Souris, Annandale. Car- digan, Montague, Alliston and Murray River.

A resolution petitioned the Can- adian National Railways to install warning signals of the audile alarm type on tour of the grade crossings in Souris, to remodel or replace the seventy-year old railway sta- tlon in Souris and to provide a cement sidewalk on railway pro- perty connecting Chapel and He- brew strects.

A protest to the Provincial Gov- ernment asking for better high- ways and secondary roads in East- ern Klng's, and especially deplor- ing the dangerous condition of the Souris West bridge which for some time has been posted with a ton- nage llmit notice was strongly sup- ported by all present with a resu- lution to the Provincial Govern- ment to provide funds sufficient in the next budget to take care of same.

The attention of the Minister of Public Works, Hon. G. H. Barbour. waa directed to the fact that the highway between Souris and St. Peter's has never had benefit of snow fences at strategic places. An- other resolution asked the Island Motor Transport Co. Ltd, to ar- range their schedule if possible so that the people from the country coming in on the bus at 1.30 daily could have a shopping period of at least an hour and a hail’.
