I hope I shall never sec the day when as a litember of Parliament I shall be prepared to consent to any leglslétiou without knowledge of the particulars to which it i. prupo-ril i11 giie the force 111 legal entici- iiielit."

AIR. PLANES INSTEAD OF TUNNEL

Sin-Having read several letters to 1min- paper by parties lnteratod in the construct-ion of a tunnelto connect. this Island to the mom- land, 1 wonder 1f they have 811911 any thought, to post ivar trans. uortotlon.

I think you will aﬁree _ transportation has proven- 1T5 rightful place clurinz these last few y-a-ars. and 1n my EGLIMHIIOII a fleet. of wooden RU‘ transports could quite cabialv look LLILEl‘ the trans- portation ileeds of this small Isl- and. with the hundred milllon ciollars 1t. iivould take to construct such a tunnel. the Dominion Goverrbnent could qulte easily provide eveYY famllv on thislslanrl 1111111 a light aircraft or hcllocoptcr. No govern- ment would ntie-npt to be so gen- erous; vet. a lot of people ale "demanding" the equivalent. value.

This afr fleet is what the local boards of trade should be seek. mix; not a white elephant. in 111E lorm of a tunnel. _ 1

And 11v the wavplf the future of Island servicemen ls nick .1i1rl slin- vel work. I don't. think thcv ivould appreciate the effort of the 1n-' terested" ones
