erald Junction with thc early trip of the Ferry for the mainland, and will arrive 1n Charlottetown at 10,80 a. m. insteadof at.1.20.p. m. as at present. .

Passengers arriving from Sum- merslde and pckits west will. thug have five hours in which to do their business ln Charlottetown before leaving on return at 3.30 p. m., in- stead of two hours (from 1.30 p. m. to 3.20 p. rn.) as at present. This advantage is obtained by the earlier departure oi the train from ‘Tignish. which at present leaves at 7 a, m. It is an advantage, Mr. MacKinnon believes, which will be appreciated by local merchants as well as by residents of the western section cf the Province whose business takes them into the city.

At the same time, under the pro- posed a-la ‘ passengers will be able to leave Souris and Murray Harbour and get through to Borden, Tignish, and all points west on the same day. This improvement in the long haul service, Mr. MacKinnon pointed out, will benefit those who most require railway transportation, inasmuch as the automobile is bi-iug used more and more exten-‘iv w. for shorter distances.

Lines East and South

For some years past the trains from Souris and Murray Harbour have been arriving in Charlottetown between 11 and 1130 a. m., and on return, leaving Charlottetown be- tween 3 and 3.30 p. m. “We found," said Mr. MacKlnnon, “that during the summer months, just as soon as the highways open up. there are very few passengers travelling on the lo- cal trains. We have the figures cov- cring every train service every day. While this service has been maln-

tained for a. numbe of years at heavy expense on account of the

i long hours on duty, it has not been

taken advantage of by the travel- ling public. Therefore we felt that in reducing the hours of these train crews on duty, by cutting downtheir time in Charlottetown. we were effecting a substantial sav- ing in our operating costs with the least possible inconvenience. 'Under the proposed changes the Sous-is train is due to arrive in Charlottetown at 12 noon and to leave at 2gp. m. The Murray Har- bour train will be due in Charlotte- town at 12.15 p. m. and leave Char- lottetown at 2.20 p. m. The reduc- tion in operating hours on these services will be equivalent to taking off a. train for each day of the week. Nevertheless, the afrangement will give passengers two full hours to do their business in Charlottetown.

"How about the return service?" Mr. MacKinnon was asked. “Will there be delay in passengers getting to their homes?"

"On the contrary, they will get home at an earlier hour." was the reply. "The Souris train will ar- rive at Souris-at 5.35 instead of at 6.45 as under the present time table. The Georgetown train will reach Georgetown at 5.35 p. m. instead of at 6.45 p. m., and the Murray Har- bour train will arrive at Murray Harbour at 5.50 p. m., instead of at 7.15 p. m. as at present. I am glad you asked about that, because it is a feature which we believeiwili ap- peal particularly to our country peo- ple. who do not wish to be held up unnecessarily in getting back to their homes."

Jitncy Service

Asked if it was feasible to supply a jltngy passenger service, on these lines, Mr. MacKinnon said this would mean unwarranted additional expense in view of the patronage which the service would rec ‘ "Last summer," he said, "we 0P6?’ gted a. jitney and motor coach be- tween Charlottetown and Summer- slde, making the run in about two hours, stopping at all stations: and vgfy few passengers were handled on this car except on special occa- sions. -'I‘herc is a certain WW1!"- age service which must be, main- tained at all costs. but by putting on an extra motor service We W001i!- in effect, be putting on an addition- al train, and the whale demand throughout Canada on the part 0! the taxpayers is for curtailment. was... possible. of such expendi- tures.

At the ccswlusion of thcconver- sat'ons, a communique issued at the State Department said:

"The Prime Minister o!

The conversa- tions were mutually helpful. They will continue tomorrow."

The mcnetari’ bit/nation, it was understood, received immediate consideration. ‘Several Senators have been discussing this comiiiic‘ atod question with Mr. Bennett 3111,99 his arrival. ‘Ilhe main pro- poaal is ‘understood to be an ar- rangemeilt whereby sterling and the United States dollar would bear the same relationship to one another the year round.

The Canadian dollar would have g. definite, fixed relationship to both thc other currencies. Advant- ages of such stability on trade are obvious. .

the members of the Board might believe that freight traffic did not warrant existing service, he be- lieved it was the passenger traffc that did not warrant this service.

To Mr. Mutch's suggestion, that a bus be operated on the railway, Mr. MacKinnon stated that such arrangement might be possible. He asked the members of the Board if they thought the shortening of the time would actually cause any inconvcnience to any person.

The difficulty experienced by the railway was that the crews were on duty all the time and that the expenses were very large as a re- sult. He thought it possible that pennission might be procured to run a bus on the rails. The pas- scriger service was not paying. He read figures which showed the ex- tent of passenger traffic on the Souris line during the month of September last. He thought that the railway shouldendeavour to give the best service possible dur- ing the season that people were

ioompelied to travel by rail. During the
