Roads llnil Etliicatlon _The importance of good roads was ably and convincingly presented in the Legislature last week by Hon. M-r. Barbour, Minister of Public Works and Highways. There is no doubt that with increasing motor vehicle traffic, both in trucks and passenger cars, this department must continue. to expand to meet requirements from year to year. As the Minister stated, this repre- sents not only a sound capital investment but is a big revenue producer in gasoline taxes and license fees. The revenue-producing factor, however, was perhaps over-emphasized in the Minlstefsstate- ment, which purported to be a reply to criticism —not with regard to road expenditures as such, but with regard to these‘ expenditures compared to the expenditures on education. The Public Accounts show that some $760,125 was voted last year for education, and only $702,361 was ox- ipended. On highways, bridges, ferries, etc., $659,775 was voted and $1,117,491 was expend- ed. This disproportion was quite properly point- ed out by the Opposition, and Mr. Borbour's con- "tention th-at more than thirteen million dollars is invested in motor cars and trucks in this Pro- vince is no answer at all. lf revenue production were the determining factor in evaluating the importance of Govern- ment departments, then even public works and highways would have to yield precedence to thlc liquor stores, which last year showed a net profit of $522,067 on gross sales of $l,847,052.'This is a veritable bonanza in the way of profit-making.‘ but Mr. Barbour, himself a lifelong abstainer, would surely be the last to suggest that for that reason it ranks ‘first in importance in public scr- vice. Education is not to be weighed in such scales as can be employed in assessing the value of any utilitarian convenience or necessity. lt detracts in no way from the importance of Mr. Barboufs department to say that education is of infinitely more importance, for on itvdepends, not only the material progress of our citizens, but their cult- , um] and spiritual growth as well. The greatest road-builder since the days of the Rflmfl" Enlplfi‘ was Adolf Hitler, and the roads built under thc lNazi regime before the war in Germany wllllpcr- hops never be surpassed. In technical achieve- ments of all kinds the Nazi system worked won- " derfully. Where it failed was in perverting tlic noble purposes of education to base and ulterior aims, and in ignoring the lessons oi history which it is one of the functions of education to import. lNo nation has ever risen above its educational gfqndqivig, and provision for the maintenance of such standards in the highest possible degree should be the first concern of democratic gov- ernment. Farm Markets llnil llliality lit ‘rs generally agreed that "Farmers' Week" this year has been the most successful in mem- ory. Nat only ‘have lsland farmers surpassed themselves with their record production, but the highest juality ever attained was produced last year-in some cases, the highest in Canada. Though there may be some apprehension as to the agricultural future, this matter of the thigh quality of lsland food products should place 'our farmers in a privileged position. The keener iths competition, the better chance the higher quality product stands in a tightening market. As the Minister of Agriculture pointed out, quali farm prcducts not only require quality seed stock, but quality pastures and feeds.‘ He warned against the policy of selling the best breeding stock, which should be kept to raise the general level of our lsland stock, for a more extensive future exporting programme. Quality products may be of little use if we hove not the market in which to sell them. The Premier pointed out the opportunities on our own doorstep to sell to our importing neighbors. lt is reported that Ontario is looking to the Eastern sea-board to sell its surplus farm products, and our farmers would do well to bear this fact in mind. Mr. McSween gave fair warning that prices may not be the only thing to worry about, but "the market at any price." In such a mar- ket, qua~lity will be the only criterion. The decision of the lsland Federation to ‘reads into the rural districts for the individual support of the former, is designed to strengthen its’ present position as the voice of all the farm organizations in the Province. A steady hand on the port of the leaders will be necessary to gaiii the full support of the rural areas. ‘ And so, as the farmer returns home and con- siders his Week's work on the administrative side of his way of life, he must decide if he will act i on the decisions arrived at by the majority. To suspend sac-ii action would leave him vulnerable to all the dangers of narrowing markets“ _ Brlllsll-Bflalllilll Trade. {i An official United Kingdom Government publication, the Board of Trade Journal, is con- ‘cerned about the volume of British exports to Canada, according to the cable. it might well be, and there should be a complementary con- 'cern in Canada. in a growing exchange of goods son a mutually satisfactory basis lies the only chance of trade between the two countries so long as present currency problems continue ‘to plague trade. , i Exporters hers are known to be as concern- ed as those in Britain. We already have surplus food, lumber and many metals which the British urgently need but cannot find the means to zney for. The natural solution is an pxchanga of goods, but already the balance is oH in Cari- oda's favor and there are few signs that Brit- ain is going to be able to improve her position in the market here. _ C-hief stumbling block to a satisfactory two- woy tradesbolance, says the Ottawa Journal, ap- pears to be the cost of British goods and the inability of British manufacturers to meet price competition in Canada, or from United States products imported into Canada. In consumer goods there is the beginning of a buyers’ market both here and in the United States, a fact which, apparently, makes it still more difficult for Brit- ish manufacturers to meet competition. There is little evidence in any of the official statements which come from Britain that this is fully ap- preciated. - The fact that Britain is making trade deals with many European countries, some on the wrong side of tho “iron curtain," causes many ‘riff. connoigisr. _ ciigncorrarowu _ i a "KEEPlllll THE GRAY GQUIRREL Like n smell any coffee-pot. alto is squirrel.

Those who do not mind risking their own lives should at least give a thought to the risk their rescuers may have to run. w W Reports of lay-offs in Nova_ Scotian coal fields as a result of the mild winter make strange reading after the fuel shortages of re- cent years. It should be possible to maintain production in winters like the present one and avoid disastrous shortages in more severe ones. R Q Q The lure of the big city certainly tends to slacken in the atomic oge. As U.S. Atomic En- ergy Commissioner Lewis Strauss put it, there is no plan for protectin-g a nioior defence area. ”The best protection is to be somewhere else when a bomb goes off]: I The Abysisinians defeated the Italians at Adowa this date 1896. This reverse Mussolini at- tempted to revenge by over-running the country some 30 years later, only to sustain a second and more disastrous defeat at the hands of the Al- lies. ' l Q I The vigorous campaign now being carried on in the United States for protection a-gainst Canadian fishery and farm products should be a warning against coming to rely too much on that market. Canada buys for more from her Southern neighbour than she sells, but there is always the danger that sectional interests will prevail as against more general economic con- siderations. , Q I I Seven years ago, on February 27, 1942, British Commandos raided German installa- tions at Bruneval- and an important radio de- tector station there was destroyed . . . Four years ago this week, on February 21, British troops in the First Canadian Army captured Goch, near Cleve, and on February 22, the greatest simul- taneous oir assault in history took place. Before dusk has fallen more than 10,000 Allied sorties had been flown. On February 26, Sgt. A. Cosens of Porquis Junction, Ont., won the Victoria Cross for an action which cost his life in the fighting around M-ricslici, Holland. a a rr An eminent surgeon from Melbourne, who is a Nuffield Fellow in Pediatric Research at the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children in London, spoke in the BBC's Overseas pro- gramme about the greot work being done at that hospital. Much has been achieved since its foundation ninety-six years ago, and two great ‘British writers, Charles Dickens and Sir James Barrie greaitly helped it through their writings and interest. "Sir James Barrie," said the speak- er, "will always be remembered by Great Or- ‘mond Street for his personal o-Fention to chil- dren within its walls, and one ward is dedicated to him. The inscription reods:-— "To The Never Fading Memory of One Who Loved Children, Sir James Barrio Bt., O.M., Creator of ‘Peter Pan‘ a most generous friend of this hospital, this word is with gratitude dedicated." The ward is known as the Peter Pan word for, besides his personaliassociotioris with the hospital, Barrie gave to it during his lifetime, the copyright of "Peter Pan" known by children the world over. This means that the Great Ormorid Street hos- pital draws royalties on the book publications throughout the world and on the stage produc- tion of the ploy. This copyright covers o period of about fifty years, and in 1946 alone no loss than £9,990 cams to the hospital 'from this source. i ' - Old Charlottetown (And r. l m MOUNTED rtuwvsnv Out at the Exhibition grounds L Squadron of the Mounted Infantry rite in (rump.
