Mr. Folsrnier said that 2,000 yards oi dredging would be carried out in Rustico Bay but declined to give a definite date of when tho work would be done. When carried out, it will be done by Dredge No. 17, Mr. Fournier added.

Mr. McLure further asked for adequate protection oi the light- house property, fisher-men's houses, equipment and boats at Rustioo harbor. "This whole harbor is threatened whenever a heavy storm comes up,” the Queen's member pointed out. "Representations have been made to the minister from time to time and at least twice efforts have been made to put up a jigsaw breastlvork as a protect- ion. Pilell should be driven in there and a strong wall built. That would have to be done only once. The sand would collect inside it end form a breastwork itself.

"This is a serious enough matter for some good engineers to look into. That plan originated from fishermen who have lived there ell their lives. One more storm like we had lest fell and you can. say good-bye to your ‘ lighthouses as well as to the dwellings there."

r ‘Mr. Ilournier admitted that the Iuetlco harbor problem had been :"'hesdaehe" for the department. erk already carried out at Rus- tloeyhe said. had been of an ex- perimental nature and that if they have not proved satisfactory a change of plan will be made.

Premierlleviewt P.E.l.l'rogramme ilfliefurestatioll

"A programme of reforestation hes been undertaken by the Prov- incial Government to gradually re- store to the Island its depleted ioreet vaealth." with these words as the keynote of his talk Pre- mier J. Walter Jones a essed the convention of the Mritime Retail Lumber Dealers A ia- tion which was held lest evening at the Charlottetown Hotel,

“The value oi- reforestation is fourfold" said the Premier. "It reduces the force of the wind in winter time, it assists in keeping the road clear; the trees enhance the beauty of the Island and they have great commercial value."

The lumber for three-quarters of the houses throughout the Island was girown right 0n the farm, he added. However, of recent years the bush has become badly denud- ed because of wood borers and other damaging insects. "Blister rust" affects white pine adversely, especially in open areas.

"Red pine” is attacked by noth- ing pwtilential and as a result it will probably be used in reforest- ation projects. It is an excellent wood for such uses as telephone poles and ships masts. A recent geographic survey in Malpeque Bay revealed s fine stand of oak on one of the islands in the bay. Since the oak propagates itself, the Premier proposed that. the acorns be gathered in large quan- tity and sown throughout the Is- land. .

Recalls Ship-Building Days

Referring to the traditional vig- our and enterprise of the peopfe, Premier Jones sketched in the history of the Island and laid par- ticular emphasis on the part which shipbuilding had played in the de- velopment of the Province a cen- tury ago. Wit-ll the basic shift frcm. wood to iron in the middle of the nineteenth century, the Island's industry “went into the dcldrums."

"At the turn of the century the ingenuity of the people reassert- ed itself with the invention of the fox farm industry. And of recent years a major item of export to many parts of the wcrld has been choice seed potatoes. More than one half oi the seed potatoes sold in Canada come from the Island." ' The freedom from disease of plants and animals is the highest found anywhere in the world, the Premier ccmrhcntcd with pride, 1n referring to the Province/s stand- ards of agriculture.

Presiding at the banquet was Mr. H.W. Wallace of Sussex, N.B., vice-president of the National Retail Lumberlng Council of Can- ada. The speaker was wittlly in- troduccd by Mr. Simon Pauli of Cliziot-ieir-lln and thanked by Mr. Reg Pearcey of Halifax. The wives oi the visiting delegates were each presented with a cup and saucer of fine china durln-g the banquet.

"And that does hotwnean cus- toms union, nor a line of credit, We only ask that our exports be given en opportunity to compete in the American market on a more equitable basis.

“That calls for selective tariff re- ductions which will bring sci-he American rates dc-wn to levels which approximate our own. That calls for a complete revision of American customs practices to iii-uh them lino cocci-a with the Geneva Pact; and for a wider realization of the vital inter-de- pendence of our two countries . . .

"The force c-i events since the o'er has been weaving a more in- ter-dependent relationship with the United States. lli we cannot dc without you, it is just as true you cannot do without us

"Yet there is in Canada no wide- spread wish for either pc-iitical or economic union. However, much we may admire the United States. we one determined to maintain our

“ l identity and to preserve those social political and judicial institutions which we have learned to cherish."

Mr. Burton said that in adfllfl to Canadian mineral resources al- ready known, but as yet unex- ploited, there still are large areas which have not been prospecied with the aid of scientific devices now available.

"But both exploration and de- velopment require huge sums of money A considerable portion oi our savings are being spent in this way Yet there just isn't enough to go around. ‘Therefore we hope more and more Americans will join us in pioneering.

"From the standpoint oi hard cold facts, investment in Canada is good business . . . in the past our American friends 'who have joined us in making econccnle pilo- grees have reaped a golden har- vest ‘Iihe American stake in Cen- ads now exeeds s5.000.000,00u.
