The little whispering winds are soft and warm.

White violets bloom in every coun- try lane.

Blue shadow vapours wreathe the distant hills,

And brooks that long lay mute sing once again.

Nothing is changed-the summer days will come. -

And garden paths be sweet with mignonetie.

But you who shared my happiness are gone.

And my remembering eyes with

tears are WEE.

"Tonight I want to refer to the Railways Commit which recent- ly'had Donald Gordon. President of the Canadian National Rail- waya. as its chief witness. Mr. Gordon. whom you all know as the former head of the Wartime Prices Board and Deputy Governor of the Bank of. Canada. was an excel- lent witness. -

"You might not always agree with his ideas or his conclusions. but you could not help admiring his grasp of our transportation problem. and his irankness in talking about them from both national and regional stand- poinis. It was my lot to ques- tion Mr. Gordon on a number of matters regarding our Prince Ed-

"Just in case he might have forgotten. I reminded the 0.N.!t. President that our Province was out off from the mainland for some days in August. l950.ton ac- count of the railway strike. I

recalled that the solo with the mainland except by at that time was the Wood Islands-

caribou ferry, and I asked him if the railway company is taking precautions against this sort oi

forgotten this matter. He had a pretty tough time himself before and during that railway strike. He told me the issue would come up for discussion this Fall when is- bour and management meet.

"That is alright as far as it goes. but I was sorry Mr. Gordon was not prepared to go farther. i think he might have given us as- surance that some mutually satis- facto arrangement will be made to aszii-e us continuous service be- tween our Island and the mainland even during a strike.

Federal 'Besponalblllty

"No doubt many of you read a recent editorial in the Charlotte- town Guardian on this subject. The Guardian insists - and right- ly -- that the Dominion Govern- ment is obligated by the B.N.A. Act to maintain the ferry service uninlerruptedly. I have always held this view and have express- ed it time and time again on the floor of the House of Commons. and I regret to say that the Min- ister oi Transport, Mr. Chevrier. repeatedly refused to see eye to eye with me.

"So what I suggest is this. Let us leave the constitutional issue for the moment. Let us concen- trate on keeping the ferry run- ning. come what may. And I am convinced that this can and will be done.

"We all know that in strikes in mines for instance. the labour un- ions agree to maintenance men remaining on duty. For one thing, they operate the pumps and keep the mines free oi water. The same principle holds good in the steel strikes in the United States and in many other industries. I ask that the ferry be placed on the same basis as the mines-and steel mills -- that it be regarded as an essential service - as oi course it is. Ferry crews should be classi- fied as maintenance men. . "Hence, I ask that the Cana- dian Natlonal Railways and the Brotherhood of Railway Employees get togeuier and agree to follow this recognized principle. No onc could lose and everyone would. gain under an agreement of this kind. I feel strongly that Mr. Gor-5 don and Mr. A. R. Mosher. Presi- dent of the Brotherhood, should get together at the earliest pos- sible date and iron out this mat- her once and ior all.

"You have all heard and you all know that there is more than one way of skinning a cat. This matter can be settled more effec- tively in ten minutes at a con- ference table than in ten years in the courts.

Proposed Bus Service

"Mr. Donald Gordon also told us in the Railways Committee something oi his plans and hopes to operate ii. trucking and passen- ger bus scrvice throughout Prince Edward Island. In this matter, too, .1 believe it is of very great im- l.portance when railway officials lmect the special committee of our lliegislature. that we get some Iguarantce against traffic being paralyzed in event of a strike.

"That is the danger of granting inny sort of monopoly. You run :iiic risk of being at the mercy oi ilabour or management of the monopoly - or indeed at the mercy of both.

"Another point of great inter- cat to our Province. and to the Maritimes in general. was Mr. Gordon's statement on Diesel en- gincs. He told us that the C.N.R. will probably never buy another steam locomotive. This is one oi these changes that are becoming more and more frequent as in- idustrial methods move forward.

"It is unfortunate that the change caused some unemploy- ment in the Prince Edward Island Railway system. With the very large annual turnover in C. N. R. employees during a year. I think iihis unemployment could and lshould have been avoided, and I told Mr. Gordon so.

i Coal Purchases

"One of the effects of the rail- way'a diesel program is its impact on the coal industry of Nova Sco- tia. Both Mr. Clarence Giilis. 0.01. member for Cape Breton South. and myself expressed concern over smaller railway purchases of coal from the Cape Breton and Maritime mines.

"We are very well aware that prosperity of the Nova Bcotla coal industry is directly linked with the prosperity of our own Pro- vince. Nova Bcotia is our closest and our best market. It ta ea a large proportion of our rish- ablo farm products. such as the output of our dairy farms. our small fruits and our root crops.

"Anything that disturbs this Nova scotia market reacts against our farming communities, parti- cularly in Queen's and King's Counties. .

. "I believe at this time oi shrink- ing markets that the Maritime coal industry has an excellent

”In my opinion. the Government should aid in developing new branches of the coal industry. help in building pilot plants for coal Products such as are being tuni- ed .out in Europe today. There will always be a demand for coal and its by-products, even in the atomic age. And when Ottawa helps in developins the 'white power' oi the central Provinces. let it not forget the 'blac pow- er of the Atlantic seaboar . "Maintenance and extension oi the coal industry is one of the best ways of ensuring a steady and expanding market for the products of our Prince Edward Island farms." ,
