The first. earlier stated to permit us many children as possible to re- ‘ ceive the two doses. and the second because it is possiblc to start earrlior due to more pave- ment for easier motoring. However, he pointed out the department must still rely to a great extent on the st-hrol trustees to insure that mothers with small children can get to re schools easily and equally as imporamt that the nurses can get there with all their needed equipment.

Said Ma

SUMMERSIDE Watson MacNaught. solicitor- general. said yesterday morning that he had received no corrres. pondence from the town of Sum- merside regarding the proposed deepening of Summerside Har- bor.

jor

The matter arose early this week when conrespo dence was read at a town council meeting between Mayor Ernest Morri- son and Mr. MacNaught in which the MP for Prince County had promised that the harbor would be dredged as soon as possible this spring.

In his letter to the mayor Mr. MacNaught said that charts of the harbour had not shown any great amount of filling in and he reiterated this statement again yesterday.

Also in this letter early in January Mr. MacNaught had re-

quested that the town let him e

know definitely as to whether they wanted the harbour deepen- ed or just dredged. At the coun- cil meeting the mayor said Mr MacNaught would be notified that the town wanted the ar- bour deepened.

Yesterday M-r. MacNau-rght said that if the town wanted the harbour deepened. this would be a major project and would in- volve dynamiting.

Concern over the condition of the h a r b 0 u r became more apparent following an incident last summer when captains of United States navy ships reject- ed an invitation to visit this

western capital during L obster Carnival wee .

In a conversation with one of the town officials at that time a USN captain said that there was fear that sensitive and highly secretive sonar equipment car- ried on the sides of ships would be damaged when manoeuvring through the narrow and shallow areas of the channel.

officer also mentioned that water for the ships’ cooting systems was pumped from an area near the keel and with the ships touching bottom at low tide silt would infiltrate the sys- ems when water was being pumped in. At Monday night's c o u n cil meeting it was mentioned that one of the last potato ships to dock last fall was only able to take on a portion of its cargo and had to sail to Souris to load the remainder. The reason giv-

depth of 26 feet when it full cargo.

DEPTH NEEDED

The deepest point in the bar- bour is the berth on the east side of the railway wharf which mea- sures 22 feet. The west side of the wharf, on the other h a nd, measures only 18 feet

water depth at the

' entrance of the harbour near what '

(commonly called the "bl a c k

buoy“ is a low 17 feet.

Mr. MacNaught said "more and more ships are coming in that want more water". He felt that eventually the harbou r channel would have to be deep-

ened.

He mentioned that send in the channef. area near the llg ht house might be filling in but that dredging would help solve the problem. Also, around the wharves. he said. a slit had built up where fertilizers and other such matters had been dumped.

-ght said the reason he had been approached concerning the pro- ject was due to some of the land belonging to the department of transport.

"Without checking the files". Mr. MacNaught said. "I believe this plan was approved. My im- pression when speaking to Mr. Mcllraith (transport minister)

iml.

was that there were no p ro b- lems".
