In refer- ring to the staff changes, he men- tioned the four new teachers who had been added, namely. Mrs. A. Taylor, Mrs. W. MacEwen, Miss Saunders and Mr. DesRoches. Mr. Mercer gave a messageto the par- ents to boost the school. as it. is one they might be proud of. being one of the finest in the Maritimes. also to get in close touch with the teachers for best results. He went on to say “We have draw- backs but if all work together great things can be accomplished." There are 840 pupils enrolled this year.

Grain Rates Unchanged

Grain shipment rates. governed by the Crow's Nest Pass Rate Agrees-heist. are not affected by the freight-rate jump. The “mountain dlfferentiaP-a surcharge on hauls across the Rocky Mountainwwas removed by the Board earlier this year.

Mr. Justice Archibald said the carriers’ application for a. general zo-per-cent increase will be review- ed agaln after findings of the Royal Commission on ‘Transportat- ion and other Governmental rail- ways surveys have been made known. This work is expected to be completed early in 1950.

At that time. said the Chief Commissioner, "the Board will notify the applicants and respond- ents of the date and place of hear- ing to consider further evidence and representations."

That will mean re-operirsg one of the most complicated and con- troversial railway-rate cases in Canadian history. Seven Provinces -ni1 except Ontario and Quebec- opposed the railways‘ application for the original 21-per-cent hoist.

Eight - including Newfoundland when that Island became Canada's 10th Province-battled against the carriers’ request for s further rate boost

Mr. Justice Archibald noted that the Provlricu had brought mucn evidence and argument into the hearings which ranged over a per- iod of three months. from January to March. 1949.

However. most of this argument. such as the nature of (ac-operation between the Canadian Pacific and the Canadian National Railways to promote efficiency and economy and the C.P.R.'s method of measuring maintenance costs and

the Royal Commission.

On the other hand. the roads were faced with additional costs. such ss grew out of the 17-cents- an-hour wage boost granted their employees in July, 1948. on the eve of s. threatened general strike.

And. the Chief Commissioner said. if Canadians wanted an ef- ficient railway system, the carriers had to be given the financial means to expedite that efficiency.

The Canadian Pacific Railway. taken by the Board as the "yard-

B

stick" line for rate-setting, had de-

clared in hearings that at existing rates it would show a "deficiency" of more than 832.000.0oo this year. This "deficiency".—almost wvgr. ed by the temporary eight-pone"; increase granted-was t-he differ. ence between expected earnings and the figure set up by the board in i948 as reasonable requirements for fixed charges. dividends and sur- plus. .

The cue of the former increase. allowed in March. 1948. was taken under review by the Board. after the Provinces pressed their case be- fore the Cabinet.

Provincial representatives de- clared in hearings that in their opinion the railways did not need s. rate increase. They suggested the carriers hull ‘been loose in their accounting in. presenting figures showing big prospective losses un- der the present rates.

Mr. Archibald said it was his opinion that in considering the 1948 application the Board then could have made a more careful ex- amination of the revenue deficiency of the C P.R.

In'his view a 15-per-cent-not a ZI-per-cent lncreaswwouid have covered that deficiency.

devoid of transfusion services, he said and others were inadequate- ly served. Also prior to the intro- duction of the Red Cross Trans- fusion Service the nost of blood was exllorbltant. Since the depot opened in Halifax about a year ago over 12,000 bottles of blood have been collected in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, he stated but it is not ehough to meet the requirements of the hospitals.

He said that donors in this Pro- vince have responded well but he hoped it can he made better with a little more exertion here and there.

Dwelling on some of the reasons that some people hesitate to be- come donors, the speaker stated that the foremost one was fear that it may be painful and have a harmful effect on health. "1 can assure you that it is absolutely painless and it will not harm your health." he said. “Anyone from 18 to 65 and in normal health can safely give a donation."

He also stressed to his audience that fa-ct that the service is free in every way. It is free up to any number of bottles any patient-may require.

Other Speakers

The appreciation of the audience was expressed to the speaker by the Hon. A.W. Matheson, Provin- cial Minister of Health and Wei- fare. Mr. Matheson pointed out that the grant of $5,000 made by the Provincial Government to the Blood Donor Service is not yet an annual grant but he hoped it would be made so at the next ses- sion of the Legislature.

In his introductory remarks the president. Mr. RH. Rogers said the reason the meeting was being held in Summerslde was to meet some of the people personally and rec- ognize in some way the benefits Summerslde. and Prince County have conferred on the Red Cross. Their generous support of the Red Cross has been a source of great inspiration to the officers and staff of the Division.

“The desire to serve is one of the greatest: features of this age", he said, "and the Red Cross is the greatest humanitarian organization in the world today."

Mr. John E. Campbell. president of the Summerside Red Cross Branch welcomed the visitors to Summerside and said he was de- lighted to see so many present.
