Urges Modernization Of llfld. Railway

OTTAWA, (CPt--W. J. Brmvne (PC-St. John's West; appealed in the Commons Tuesday for mod- ernization of Newfoundland! nar- row-gauge railway.

Mr. Browne said ferry facili- ties to Newfoundland were being improved. but apparently nothing was to be done about the iia.n-ow- gauge railway. a "bottleneck" on movement of goods.

He suggested that the line should be converted to standard gauge and should be extended to parts of the island province now without railway service. Instead of making further expenditures for new narrow-gauge cars and loco- motives. the decision to convert should be made now.

Prime Minister at. Laurent. an- nounced in the Commons Tucsda.V night that Mr. Drew and three other members of the official Can- adian coronation delegation have been named as privy councillors.

hold them until spring. something like this happens."

He said ii'(5L coast farmers have 10.000 sacks on hand while New Bruiiswick and Pi-.nce Edward Island farmers are selling potatoes ”for less than it cost to produce them.”

Prince Charles To Get

Coronation

I LONDON. iReuters) - Prince Charles. sturdy four-year-old son of Queen Elizabeth II, will .::t a peep at "Mom's" Coronation in Westminster Abbey June ., it was announced Tuesday.

Just how and when. and what costume he will wear. were not .disclosed in the announcement from the Duke of Norfolk. the earl marshal who is chief Corona- tlnn planner. He said that. thr- Prince will be in the Abbey ”for a certain period."

The Duke said the Queen's other child. two-year old Princess Anne, will be left behind at But- ”;il.'ll1l Palace during the ceremony.

ials said they thought the boy Prince would not go to the Abbey. The change appears to have een ordered by the Queen licrrcl”.

Charles will probably see the placing of the Crown on his moth- er's head and the sub-.. "ll- age when her noblcmen kneel be- fore her. It. is a Royal Family tradition that tlici. -children should be schooled in ceremony from an early age.

The Duke. also announced press conference that no r closeups of the Queen would hr permitted within the Abbev. and the televised program will not ill- clude the anointing, cominiiiiloii land one or two prnyrii-s
