Ouisianding ilelurns From Bracliley Point

That the residents of Brackley Po-int district fully appreciate the value and scope of the activities being carried on by the Canadian Red Cross in P.E.1. is evidenced again this year in their response to the Society's current campaign appeal. .

Mr. Grant Maccalium, as in former years was the efficient can-vasser who was successful in collecting the grand sum of sl73.00 from the Ill subscribers in the dis- trict. Thc list showed several contributions of 520.00. tiwo 510.00 amounts one of which came from the Women's Institute. ten dona- tions of s5.00 each. two of s4.00. four of s3.00, eight of 32.00 and one of 311.00.

Contributors in Brackley Point show by their donations that they realize the worth of the Red Cross in peace. as well as in war, for they have continued to subscribe in the same manner as they did during the war years.

Rental Control Measure Passed

Legislation providing for the establishment of rental control in cities and small towns was passed in tne Legislature yesterday Imm- ing but it drew the support of several members only, because they thought it was little if nnY better than nothing at all.

The bill provides that no rents in effect on May 31. 1961 can be

increased unless under certain conditions. These conditions He agrecinent between the landlord

and tenant or the approval 0f I board or person appointed as a rental authority.

Messrs. R. R. Bell and D. L- Mathieson argued that the last date on which rents must remain fixed snould ho changed from May 31 to April 30. The Federal rent controls are effective until April 30, it wns pointed out, and if there are no controls during the month of May the Act will be in- cffectivc.

Mr. Mathleson proposed an amendment, but the section was carried before his amendment

was submitted. The bill was given second and third readings yesterday mD"l1n8

and passed just before His Honor Lieutenant Governor T. W. L. Prowsc entered to prorogue the House. The promoter was Mr. Dougaid MacKinnon, Fourth Queens.
