l-n the closing hours of the sss-' sion an interesting debate on rail-f way affairs in the House of Com-D mons taken part in by Maritime members.

iMr. McI-SAAC: I wish to bringdo t-he attention of the Minister o! Railways certain‘ grievances, cer- tain handicaps, or disabilities. lin- der which the -people o.’ the prov- ince which I halve the honour to represent are suffering. in the first place, there is at Georgetown a wharf which has not- been used for some time. It is n valuable property; the-re is a valuaibie ware- house on it, but it is out of coni- niission and the people are very anxious that the necessary ex- penditure should be made in order to keep it in a good state of re- pair. because while it has not of late been used very much it may ibe required in’ the near future Then. they have some grievances‘

the stations at Montaigne, Cardigan and Georgetown. Passing from this, l yvlsh to point tug apother hardship from which i e people qre suffering. l have received numerous telegrams and letters with regard to the summer-time- tables which have been put into force on the eastern section of the Prinice Edward,‘ lslaind Rail-i- way, from Charlottetown to' Sourie" ﬂlld Geﬂrgetown. Freight trains are run ibetween these points only tri-weekly. whereas they have hitherto always had in summers daily freight service. A number of merchants of Georgetown, Sourls spd Montague have sent me tele- grams pointing out that if. this

.~'I‘hen. the booking station at Bear Riﬂor on the eastern line. about half way between 8t. Peters and Souris, is about to be closed so it is reported. Tbatstation has been there ever since the opening 0f the road; a prosperous farming Qonimunlty has been built up on all sides of it. and Qtlie station is now closed there may he noth- ing else for these people to do but to leave there and ‘move some- jwhere else. it would mean that there would be no booking station between St. Peters and Souris, a distance of some twenty-five miles, ((1)111 behalf of the people of this , siilct l urge the minister to take iha matter into his serious con slrlerntlon. \ B"!

that the increase in production in the agricultural province o1‘ Prince Edward island would be so great its to full-y Justify the additional expenditure on u second car ferry.

Ln addition to what l have ul- ready said l desire to presentfnr- i-her reasons in order to convince this committee beyond the possi- billty of dcubt that the people for whom it is my privilege to speak and the province of which l have the honour to be a representative, are unquestionably entitled to the transportation improvements for which-l plead. Prince‘ Edward lslsnd although the smallest prov- ince of the Confederation, is the meet populous according to area and the wealth-lest according to population. it is the Braden of the Gulf, the gem of the northern sens. it is a land of peace and P1911‘? where a generous soil under moder ate climatic conditions reacts read- ily and yields abundantly to the activities of industry and _intelli- gence. lt is the home of the sturdy men and comelywc-men where .he visitor receives a cordial welcome and hospitality is dispensed in princely fashion.
