Sioclislon Hand Serve As Cushion To Budget Boosts

The full impact of the "Cold War Budget" brought down in Parliament this week has not hit local consumers as yet, but there are many who are trying to get in out oi the siorm by buying now things they would not need for a few more months.

Many of the items specifically mentioned in Mr. Aibbott's bud- get are under heavy buying in Charlottetown at present - and have been for the past couple of weeks.

Automobiles are being purchas- ed steadily now while the old prices hold good. There probably would be many more taken up if it were not for Government res- ulations regarding the down pay- menis. This amount - now 50 per cent of the price - is a. solid deterrent to most people in the middle income bracket. Another item which has contributed to prevent dealers from overstock- ing in anticipation of the Budget was the recent edict preventing

Sione 0f,Scone

LONDON. April 13 - (AP) - Nervous policemen tugged the stolen Stone of Scone back into Westminster Abbey tonight with dramatic flourishes worthy of the ancient and priceless coronatior relic.

Racing their cars over a secret route. the police rushed the 458- pound chunk of sandstone out of Scotland and back into England. This was done to avoid any Scot- tish demonstration. Blinking auto headalights to signal their arrival. they drew up before the Abbey itself. Then the cumbersome stone was brought in to the Abbey-its home since 1296.

More precious roses grow.

Her voice resounds notes in the same way

Of songs so tender and sweet.

Her prayerful vision I often meet.

POLITICAL FORUM

DISGI-AOEFUL IDADB

sir.-I would like to say a few words concerning the "road de- bate" of which I hear so much talk. Well, we in Tlgnlsh have no roads that should be called a road. I don't see how any Govern- merit could have gall enough to call an election at this time of the year and ask people to drag over those mud holes to go to political meetings, the people saying to themselves, "Yes. I will work to support this goveriunent" and then have the same roads for the next four years. This has been going on for twelve years with many promises made but nothing done.

our Premier, Mr. Jones, told the farmers to stay home on their farms. Well. he sure made us stay there for his government roads wlon't allow us to go anywhere tree.

We have bridges which are man and horse killing traps for six months of the year. and all that our Liberal friends do is stick up an old cedar pole in the hole and then "get by the best way you can." Yes. the Government built a wharf at Skinner's Pond costing over 3100.000. when there were twenty-five or thirty boats fishing there, they did nothing. Now, when they are all gone from there but five or six boats. the Government built a wharf. Why did they not give those few fish- ermen a price for their fish, and take some of that money they spent and make a road for them to get to church and Tlgnlsh stores? They can't travel by boat to Tlgnlsh on account of the high hills..

The Indians are kicking for their right and I say. "more luck to them". But let anyone go to Lennox Island and then come to ;ri'gnish. and see the mess we are I1

No Islanders Al Cheese Meeting

Representatives of Canada's cheese makers met with Agricul- tural Minister, Hon. James Gard- iner at Ottawa yesterday morn- ing but no Island delegates were among them. It was thought that only cheese makers from Quebec and Ontario were represented.

Mr. J. J. MacDonald. Glen1in- nan had been appointed as dele- gate to the meeting but on ac- count of ihe present election cam- paign hc was unable to attend. Mr. Lincoln Dewar was chosen in his place but Mr. Dewar did not receive notice until Wednesday evenrlng and due to poor flying conditions was prevented from making the trip.

One of ihe points to be discuss- ed was the price clause in a pro- posed British cheese contract. Queibec and Ontario producers were dissatisfied with the price of 25 cents a pound which they re- ccived last year and and unless they could receive at least 31 or

.32 cents it is doubted if they would

consider I British contract.

The following address on the Provincial election issues was given on Thursday evening by David L. Matirleson. l(.C.:

The General election of the 26th of April will be held just two weeks from today. The Lead- er of the Progressive Conserva- tive Party has described it as an election of fear. it is one of fear because the Government is afraid that their methods of ad- ministration and the disastrous results of their policies will be- come known and their party will be humiliated if time be given to the people to discuss and consider public affairs.
