The Act. also eliminates the "closed shop" con- tract and provider, for arbitration before a strike may be called.)

Good Farm Prospecil

Premier Jones dealt. optimistical- ly with present and future pros- pects in agriculture and the fish- eries industry. emphasizing the de- velopment. of new techniqllefi. \X- tension of markets and inczeasved prices. Only the labor scarcity is limiting production on the farms at the present time, he said. 1.00!) farm wor-kers from the main- land will be brought to the Prov- ince this year.

The Premier was hopeful that

the new type of boats for offshore fishing, now being provided. Will do much to improve the industry in this Province. Compulsory iri- spection and grading would be in- troduced when it is definitely re- quested by the packers. He indicated that - renewed ef- iorus will be made to develop the scallop fishery. first by obtaining complete biological data on uhe subject. ymprovecnents in transportation bv motor truck and air were dealt with. also the continued develop- ment in the Island's trade with Newfoundland. The Premier be- lieved this trade might be infill" incteased when Newfoundland enters Confederation. lie stressed particularly the im- provgd prospects in production and itnaiketllig of berries and small fruits on a large scale with the operation cl the Matthew Wells Company in this Province. and the anticipated establishment of a bottling plant. He dealt with improved facilities for cold storage and bait freezezs and with the establishment of ~ii large fish drying plant at the air- port whic-h he predicted will be of great value to Island fishermen.

Less Liquor Sold

Referring to the new Tomi)"- ance Act. he said the fears 0f Prohibitionists had failed to mat- erialize. as less liquor is beinil 801d than dii-zing last year. and liquor stores have not increased. The Act. he stated. is "operating smoothly!’ Hog. cattle and poultry rsisln8 activities were touched ‘upon briefly by the Premier. vilhfl 99ml‘ ed a RIDWIiliI picture of the P05" slbilities in these lines. Dealing with the tourist indus- try. he indicated that “inspection of cabins is now a fact." This mat- ter had been provided for in legislation passed at. the last ses- sion. Altogether, he estimated that t-he tourist industry is responsible for bringing “n couple of million dollars yearly into our laps." The technical school used by war veterans is being made available for other citizens and a compclent staff is gradually being recruited. The Premier expressed resret that some thirty school districts are still without teachers. This makes it necessary far pupils u! Qmall schools to be transported to od- joinlng districts. or take cor- respondence courses. He referred to the su-r-vev re- cently made with respect to pest bogs sad gravel deposits. The re- port of this survey. the Premier said. should prove of great inter- est and value. Dealing briefly with the freight rates issue. he said it was the Gov- ef-nment‘; intention to continue to press for a full inquiry and satis- factory readjustment. He extended his "warmest best wishes" to the Progressive Con- servatives in connection urlththeir forthcoming national ‘convention. also to ihe CCP. party "provided they do not allow themselves to be made the tools foi- u future Labor Government." "_We Islanders." he added, "would not stand for that.“

Mother-p’ Allowances: We again urge upon the Provincial Govern- ment the need of enacting suit- able Legislation to provide pay- ments of allowances to mothers who are left in dire need owing to the death of the bread winner of the family. We point out that no better legislation could possibly be enacted than one that makes provision for the keeping together of a. home and for the mainten- ance and education of children who have lost their father. Housing: We again urge the Federal Government to set up some scheme of subsidihation whereby those of our Comrades financially unable to pay the current high rents may secure suitable housing accommodation. We also request the Federal Gov- ernment to give earnest consider- ation to the putting into affect of the Legions Home Ownership Plan as one that will enable vet- erans to build their own home on a plan thiat is within their reach.

Car Ferry Employees: Whereas the Sumitnerside Branch, No. 5. of the Canadian Legion, B. E. S. l... has learned with surprise and disapproval that, approximately, seventy-five per cent of the em- ployees on the M. V. "Abegiweit" and of the S. S. “Prince Ediward Island" are non-service personnel.

And whereas these same ditch have become catch basins for - ery kind of unsightly rubbish.

And whereas tihese same ditches force pedestrians to travel on the main highway in constant danger to life and limb.

Be it therefore resolved that the Department of Public Works of this Province be urged to undertake the tiling and grading of these ditches at. the earliest possible opportunity. (St. Peters Branch).

And whereas ihe Montague and Csrdigsh Branches have strongly protested that no- such preference was given when the appointment of a retail vendor was mode at Cardi-
