FRIDAY, JAZYUARY 31, 1947 Tke Hudson Bay Route The prospect of shipping western lead grains to this Province by way of the Hudson Bay route from Port Churchill, discussed by Mr. H. K. S. Hamming in a letter in the Public Forum on January 15, has caused a good deal ofvinterest. As noted previously, the fact that ships can leave Churchill as late q; November l5, thus permitting six return trips from Chur- Chill to Charlottetown each autumn, is a mat- ter of prime importance. Mr. Hemming at the time of writing was not able ‘to obtain all the cost figures, which also are o vital factor; but it is llOpld that these will be disclosed without delay. in the meantime, something about the y» Hudson Bay route, from reports submitted at the last annual convention of the Hudson Bay Route Association, may here be noted, Agitation for the Hudson Bay route n5 q moons of direct transportation to the United Kingdom started back in 1877. The first chor- ter to build a railway to the Boy was granted in_l880, but it took fifty-one years before the railway was built and the seaport established. Then came drought to the West, and world- wide depression. "N t very much happened with our new route,’ President Streeton con- cedos, "but we did send out twenty million bus- hels of wheat and nearly 1,000 head of cattle. We imported a few thousand tons of general cargo at a great saving in costs of shipment, thus proving beyond a doubt the feasibility of this new route. But then come World Wcr ll and the port was closed except for military use." The port was re-opened for civilian traf- fic in June, 1945, but considerable difficulty has been encountered in making it available. lt was to combat this opposition that the Hudson Boy Route Association was formed. In a report to the directors and membe s of this organization dated last September, the secretary writes that he discussed at Churchill plans for larger groin shipments this year with many people experienced in the handling of grain. "We arrived at the conclusion," he says, "that either the Western Governemnts or the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool should immediately acquire control of the elevator at Churchill and the internal elevator at Saskatoon. The capa- city of these two elevators is 7,500,000 bushels and they should be filled up from the 1946 crops. Much of the groin from Northern Sask- atchewan farms could be shipped immediately direct from local elevators and more ships can be obtained from overseas. As soon as naviga- tion opens next year providing the elevators re- ferred to were filled, 3S ships which should be contracted for in April or May could enter tho harbour at Churchill and carry on continued op- erations throughout the season. Each ship is capable of loading on average of 300,000 bus- hels and a conservative estimate is that we could move 30 million bushels through the porl next year." As Mr. Hamming pointed out in his letter, to date all grain shipments from Churchill have gone to Liverpool, a distance of 3,000 miles. The distance from Churchill to Charlottetown via Hudson Strait and the Labrador Coast is only 1,500 miles. This is a tremendous advant- age, if it can be utilized for the benefit of our farm producers in coniunction with a storage elevator here. it is up to our Federal repre- sentatives as soon as possible after Parliament gets down to business; to make very thorough inquiries into this matter. Wild ‘Ducks In Winter The ducks and geese of North America are now being subiected to an annual inventory covering Canada, Alaska, United States, Mex- ico ond Control America. More than 1,000 ob- servers have co-operdted under the auspicesof Federal, provincial and state governments in making this inventory between January 7 and 17, when the water-fowl are relatively stationary an their wintering grounds. ln some areas, air- planes have been uscd for observational purposes and aerial photography has been tried. information will be checked by further ob- lorvotions on migration and nesting in Spring and early Summer before the changes to be made in the regulations governing the hunting of water-fowl are decided on. One of the first reports to be received in connection with this inventory in Canada comes from th-a St. Lawrence River between Prescott and Cornwall, where nearly 1,900 wintering ducks were found on January 8 by observers. lt - is not considered unusual for many hundreds of ducks to winter in the swift, open water of this part of the St. Lawrence; in fact, local reports received indicate that the number of these birds in this area this Winter is less than usual. Ducks winter on similar rapid, open water In many parts of Canada, in spite of uCCtlSl0ll01 oir temperatures for below zero, because, strange o: it may seem, they are protected from cold by tho ice-water in which they live. The temperature of this fresh water is not less than 32 degrees, as long as it does not become ice, land thoroforrit is frequently much warmer than cold Winter air. The wintering ducli_s are Jvell protected by their fat and by'their plum- gt, with the air that is enveloped in it, so that they. have no difficulty in keeping warm and healthy in a medium no colder than 32 do- grew Cf celnc thiy must have plenty of suit- ' fepd to enable them to maintain their , ilfll, but my iviiitororily where that feed ‘ , i y.“ M and, strangely enough, e great deal of their food throughout the Winter con- sists of insects. One is not accustomed to find- ing many insects out-of-doors in Canada in Winter, but these ducks find them because they look for them in suitable places, that is, on the bottom of comparatively shallow water in the open areas where they are wintering. The larvae of such insects as coddis-flies and dragon- flies are to be found there in great quantities, and these insect forms, together with crayfish, are the principal winter reliance of the major- ity of the ducks found at this season on open areas of Canadian streams. — EDIIURIAL NUIIIS a Zero hour in coal situation. i i’ i i Exception is being taken by farmers to direction of farm organizations by of- ficials in Ottawa. It was ever thus: beginning in a democracy and ending through negligence in an autocracy. Eternal vigilance is the price of safety. n-xnx The question of continuing Government control on life's essentials, food, clothing and rentals will provide the main subject for dis- cussion when the debate on the address opens on Monday. Associated with this will be the terms on which Canada can provide the Mother Country with much needed supplies of food- stuffs. Hcre the opportunity offers to get a market for our surplus potato crop instead of dumping it, as Washington decided to do. The Federal Government is in a dilemma over what to do with Dr. David Shugar, former Health Department physcist who was acquitted on o spy probe charge. He has applied for re- instatement, but the powers-that-be seem r-e- luctant to acquiesce, claiming that as his ap- pointment during the war was only temporary he has no right to be re-employed. But the United Electrical Workers think differently, and have approached the C. C. F. to bring the mat- ter before the House. _ ‘A e wow "Admiral" William Duff, Senator, is once more off to the battle front at Ottawa, where he intends entering action forthwith in the in- terests of the fishing industry. He intends to call for an international agreement including Canada, the United States and European coun- tries for the conservation of fisheries along the Atlantic seaboard. Senator Duff said in an interview that beam trawl-sis and draggers, op- erating unrestricted on Nova Scotia's fishing grounds, were "ruining the fishing industry" and that it's "only salvation is to return to the dory schooner." near Ben Jonson, English dramatist and poet, born this date 1573; began life as o brick- layer and, after a most brilliant career in liter- ature and drama, died in poverty due to killing o fellow actor in a duel, for which he was brand- cd and deprived of all his estate, being left penniless in o poor state of health. His tomb in Westminster Abbey bears the inscription "O Rare Ben Jonson." He wrote extensively, much in collaboration with Inigo Jones, his master- ‘piece being The Alchemist in which Sir Epicure Mammon is a gem of character portroyal—the situations are good, the story absolutely coher- ent, the minor parts worked out admirably. As a sang writer, he is best known for his "Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes": "True happiness does not consist in the multitude of friends, but in the worth and choice." ' l’ it i Q The enterprising employees of the E. B. Eddy plant at Hull, Que, who utilize thcir posi- tions to redeem used food ration coupons and sell them to their friends, are still appearing before the courts to answer for their block market activities. The plant superintendent, described as the "king-pin" of the operations, has been fined $800, while three women have been fined $350, and $150 each respectively. Six others have been granted a week's delay. Cpl. R. W. James, who with other R. C. M. P. officers investigated the disappearance of coupons from the Eddy plant vats where they had been sent for processing into other paper products, des- cribed how one accused had obtained food cou- pons from the pulping machine and later sold them for $12. fi Lord MocMillon, wiio was a personal friend of the late Hon. and Mrs. J. A. Mathieson, and whose guest they were when they visited England, has resigned his offic-c of Lord of Ap- peal in Ordinary. The King has approved the appointment of Lord Normand as a Lord of Ap- pcol in Ordinary in succc-ssiop. Lord Macmil- Ian, son of a Scottish Presbyterian minister, was coiled to the Scottish Bar in i897. He afterwards went to London and practised at the Parliamentary lar until he was made a Lord of Appeal in Ordinary. Lord Macmillan, who is in his 74th year, told a reporter that he was not retiring for health reasons. "l have com- pleted my full l5 years service," he said, "and 50 years at the Bar." He added that he would remain a Lord of Appeal, and his services could be used from time to time if called on. w I U I 5 The west is rallying to the support of the East in connection with feed shipments. The Winnipeg Tribune said Eastern Canada's entire livestock and dairy production programs are in imminent danger of collapse due to lack of Western Canadian feed grains. A virtual em- bargo against shipment of Western feeds to Eastern Canada hos existed on all railroads throughout the present crop year which began August 1, the paper added. Last weck, the Canadian Notional Railways clamped a rigid embargo on feed groin movement east in order to turn all roilwoy equipment to movement of food grains to Atlantic and Pacific ports for export to Europe. The East had been import- ing between 140,000,000 and 180,000,000 bushels of food,‘ wheat, oats, barley, low-grade rye, screenings and mill-feeds from Western Con- odo each year. The Tribune said o telegram from J. F. Davidson, feeds administrato- for Canada, to Winnipeg, reported that feed reserve stocks in Eastern Canada were "practically all used up."
