Announcement is made in this issue of the pending resumption of the ferry service between lived islands and Caribou. it is stated, pend- mg decision (l5 t0 whether one or two boats will operate, the M.

Surely at this late date there should be no doubt about the necessity of having two boats for the stead- ily increasing traffic between here and Nova _ hxpcrience has proved that one boat is entirely inadequate to provide the service, and the Northumberland Ferries having acquired a second one, all that is necessary is for the Federal Government to authorize increased subsidy to set the wheels of industry and development in motion. the coming season are most encouraging, it be- ing estimated there will a 5o per gent increase in passengers, 75 per cent increase in autos, and I50 per cent increase in trucks. This, of course, is dcpcndent upon the carrying power available, and that is up to the Federal author- ities. Ilhe Northumberland Ferries are prepared to provide the double service from the opening to the close of navigation for a subsidy of $150,- 000, a sum which all (including Government of- ficials), who know the circumstances, consider The facts and figures have been placed before the powers-that-be at Ottawa, and it depends on their decision whether or n t the Province will enjoy the double service. T e Ferries are all in readiness to comply, and thus provide the means for the further development of our main industries, trade and commerce, but naturally they are not prepared to do so at a loss. Should the Federal Government fail to comply with the reasonable request for a double service, the company can easily dispose of the S. S.

‘Parliament resumes its deliberations MOnday, and it is hoped that within a reason- ably short time thereafter -1'r possibly in May —- Finance Minister Ilsley will be able to bring down the Budget. Seldom has a budget an- nouncement been awaited with greater expect- ancy. Everyone is hoping for some measure of relief from taxation burdens, but many are like- ly to be disappointed. It is safe to’ predict, as ttaiva correspondents, that there will 'be reductions, but that these will be givcn mainly if not solely where they can do the most good in creating jobs and keeping production at as high a. level as possible.

Magical April

With the Psi-is Four-Power conference and other momentous events on foot, the New York Times gives editorial space to a. subject of equally timely interest. It hails the advent of the Anemones-“Spring itself thrusting its petaled presence into the ‘lengthening sunlight of a new season"—and it says, how truly and well: Poke among the sere leaves and you come to the dampness of decay and new soil in the making. Green "shoots are thrusting through it and the purple-veined leaves of golden ragwort are spread wide to catch the sun. There is sun and warmth above, and beneath, where the roots lie, is the ferment of change and decay. Growth persists on the leavings of other growth. And
