"The geological surveys of New‘

made many years ago are very in-i

A complete in the light of recent know-fa - ledge although thc general survey of .

New Brunswick has been sufficiently extensive to satisfy present demands.‘ We recommend that the Geological‘ Department undertake, as soon as possible, a more detailed survey of New Brunswick and an exhaustive survey of Prince Edward Island for the purpose of re-mapping this pro- vince, of investigating its mineral‘ deposits, and materials for road- making and of examining the possi- bilities of its clay resources. It. should be remembered, however, that it is‘ not the function of the Geological Survey to undertake work which, more flttlngly belongs to the pros-

pector and is within the sphere of mg

the provinces themselves."

The last and only geological sur- vey of Prince Edward Island was made in 1871 by the late Sir William Dawson and paid for by the then provincial goverinment. There is no‘ geological map of the Island and ab- solutely no knowledge oi what is hidden beneath its surface. It was‘ in order that some knowledge of this might be obtained that the Royal Commission recommended that "an exhaustive survey" be made. It was assumed that the province was en- titled to such n survey and that it was the business of the Mines De- partment to make it.

An "exhaustive survey," even a

survey which will give any definite information, positive or negative, cannot be made in three weeks or even ‘in three months by any geolo- gist no matter how well qualified he may be. It is hoped, therefore, that the present flying visit by an emin- out engineer in ceramics will not be mistaken for the "exhaustive survey" recommended by the Royal Commis- lion.

We have much pleasure in wel- coming Mr. Frechette to the province and we trust that his short visit is but preliminary to the "exhaustive llirvey." which has long been look- Od forward to as a much needed ex-
