Explaining the purpose of his question to The Guardian's Ot-l tawa correspondent, Mr. McLure said he was altogether in favor of a fairly paid and not overworked Civil Service. He viewed with ap- prehension. however, any mass movement in Ottawa bureaucratic circles to reduce the number of hours of work down to 33 and a half weekly.

Moreover, Mr. McLure said. any reduction of Civil Service hours is a matter which should be threshed out on the floor of Par- liament itself and not: put through by order-in-council at a. time when the House is not: sitting.

"I believe in fair treatment and fair working hours for everyone in this country." Mr. MeLure said- "I also believe in a fair day's work and a fair day's pay.

What Taxpayers Think

“I wonder," he added. "what our farmers would think and what our fishermen would think of a Civil Service with a thirty- two and a half hour working week, and what they think is most important since they as all others in this country pay the taxes ivhlch support the Civil Service."

The Queen's member takes the stand that the Government should itself be a model employer insofar as possible. setting an example to

Body Of Missing iioeky Point Man Found Yesterday

A body identified as that of the late Stewart. MacNeill. Rocky Point, was discovered yesterday floating hi the harbour off the biockhouse.

The discovery was made by Mr. Glen Campbell. a Charlottetown fishenman. who was on his way to St. Peter's Island, but who im- mediately returned to the Marine Wharf from where he notified the RCMP.

Coroner Dr. J.D. MacGulgan. up- on being satisfied wit.h the identity of the body. pronounced an inquest unnecessary.

The body was taken to the MJC- Lean Funeral Home. The funeral will be hold privately today to the People's Cemetery.

The late Mfg IvlacNclll left his home at Rocky Point after dinner on Monday, March 10. to wuilk across the harbour ice to do some shopping in the City. The following Friday a cap and some groceries were found lying near a hole in tihe

ice.

Ii was the opinion of neighbors that the late Mr. MacNeill hi"! broken through a tthtn spot in the ice while on his way back from the City.

"Down through the centuries wherever the Christian missionar- ies went. iiand in hand with them went bands of holy men and wo- men with lives dedicated to the service of God in caring for the sick and needy. 1i: is an historical fact. almost incredible, that with- in 32 years after the landing of Christopher Columbus at San Salvador the first hospital in all America was erected in Mexico City: a structure so wonderful that it is still rated as one of the most beautiful hospitals ever built on this continent. and there it stands to our day but, because of religious persecution in Mexico, itl is rib longer used for hospltalpur-l poses. l

"But do we need to travel to distant lands and read the history of peoples to us but little known? Turn the pages of our own coun- try's history and there learn how the Jesuit Missionaries appealed, to the people of Old France to provide them with a hospital to care for the sick of the Indian Tribes. and learn too, that on the 4th day of May 1639 there left the now famous Port of Dleppe a i small band of Hospital Nurses of‘ the Augustine Order, to perform their labor of service, their labor of love amongst the simple, suf- fering Algonquin Indians in the wilds of the Colony of Quebec.

"Such was the condition of the public hospitals and the nursing profession in England as they at- tracted the attentlon of Florence Nightingale. That noble and tal- ented lady. unlike the majority of women of her time. was deeply interested in hospitals and in the care and welfare of the sick, She visited hospitals frequently and be- ing moved by their appalling con- dltions determined to bring about their reform. But realizing that she knew nothing about the man- agement of hospitals and the care she determined to prepare herself for her work. She sought information from every reliable source. Her first place of training abroad was at the Deac- oness‘ Home for the training of Nurses at Kaiserwerth in Ger- many where she remained for a few months.

“ln the following year she went to Paris where she spent. several months with the Sisters of St. Vincent De Paul, who at, that time were amongst the greatest experts in hospital management in the world.
