CHARLOTTETOWN ' Electric company I Builds 65 Miles Of New lhes The Maritime Electric Company ” plans to establish power lines on about 65 miles of Island roads and highways during.this season and bring electricity to 400 mew homes. Already six miles of line have been laid in the Covehcad . area. an eleven mile line is being erected from souris to South Lake and a 12 mile line on the 7 Peters Road and another eleven " mile line from Cornwall are be- lng constructed. The laying of the foundation for the new turbine at the Maritime Electric Plant is expected to be . eompleted today. The new turbine will increase the output to 20.- .p. Other lines to be laid this year include: Ten miles from Clyde ', River to Long Creek. Canoe Cove and New Dominion. a mile and s , half on the n Bannockburn Road. 'two miles in the Oyster Bed i Bridge area. two miles in the Gambles' Corner area. six miles from "Fredericton to Emerald. three 'miles from Rollo Bay to Bear River and one mile in the North Dessble area. lledecorailon 0f library completed ' The Charlottetown Public Lib- rary opened its doors on Thursday, after being closed one week for ,re- decorating. While the library was closed the staff received many calls asking for information as to when it would re-open. Miss Jean Gdll, chief lib- - rarian, compares this eagerness and enthusiasm to the days, not too long ago. when. the library could remain closed for a month without any en- quiries. She states that not only has the circulation increased greatly. but al- so that on the whole, the type of book being read nowadays is super- icr to those formerly in demand. Book reviews in various forms are apparently read quite avidly, as re- quests pour into the library long before the new books arrive. Painters have not only redecorat- ed the library proper. but have also painted up the stairs to the Art Gallery. and down the stairs to the basement. For the first time in many years the basement itself has been treated to a coat of paint. Previously a drab. dark brown. the basement is now shining wth two shades of green. and bookcases and shelves have been scrubbed until they gleam. - - The same shades of green have been carried on the walls upstairs to the library. and also up to the Gallery. Stairs have received a coat of rich dark maroon. In the library itself, the walls now glow with a soft apple green which reflects in the sparkling white ceiling. A large collection of magazines is one of the feature services of the library, but one which few readers are as yet accustomed to using. Mag- azines cover many widely varied subjects. and include such well known periodicals as Dalhousis Re- view, National Geographic. Holiday, Canadian Historical Review, Atlant- ic. and School Arts.

The death of Labor Minister Mitchell has en- couraged that belief. ' The special Korean force would be recruited from civilians and from the ranks of the reserve army and probably would include -some regulars. The pace of re- cruiting might. well be the decid- lng factor in its size but the aim is believed to be to send a group of infantry and supporting arms running beyond 1,000 and possibly to 4.000 if enthusiasm warrants. Its components would probably be special units and not linked with existing regiments. The army. in apparent anticipation, says its recruiting officers have been tak- ing note of men.who have said they, want to serve in Korea but not in the regular army. . The length of the Korean war and the international situation may determine whether the spec- ial force would be kept in being as a formation Canada could use to back her U. N. commitments at any time. Such a step is a pos- sibili Numerous details remain to be worked out, among them the ques- tlon of whether the force would nght within a Commonwealth div- ision-one is being formed-or as part of an American force. The Cabinet, in its hours of de- l”cration, has had the benefit of a personal report by External Affairs Minister Pearson who quietly slipped away to Washing- ton by sir a few days ago to get background information for the series of meetings here. With Norman Robertson, secret- ary of the Cabinet and former High Commissioner in London. he 'is believed to have gone down to discuss the sort of problems that would arise from dispatch of a Canadian force. M. A. Flies Blood Tcialilaxp Through the kind co-operation of Captain Carl Burke. Maritime Central Airways flew all the blood collected at the Summerside Blood Donor Clinic on Tuesday evening to Halifax on Wednesday after- noon. During the last few visits of the Mobile Team from Halifax to this Province the R.C.A.l". at Bummeseide has generously flown the first two or three days" colloc- tlons of blood to Halifax but were unslble to do so this time. As only a certain amount of blood can be traluported back to Halifax in the refrigerator car which is the third vehicle used by the M " Blood Donor Team it is imperative that the first two dsys' ,su-pply be sent to Halifax as quickly as possible.

He said: "When you get over there. I'd .like you to find out what is the score on these points: What happens when the counter- offensive drives the North Ko- reans back to the 38th parallel? What happens if the Chinese Com- munists come in in assist the North Koreans?" These are two of the toughest imponderables in this Korean war. And they are greatly concerning authorities here. On. the. first point. an offensive will eventually be mounted to we the North Korean forces out of the southern areas of the country. But what happens when the U. N. forces reach the border- line between North and South Korea on the 38th parallel? If they push on into North Ko- rea. this could be risking direct conflict with: the Soviet Union. If they do not shove on. it could mean unlimited garrison duty along the border that would be completely unreal. Still Long Way Off Nobody here knows what will. happen. Of course, -the offensive is still a long way off--the one that will push the North Koreans out of the south. But no one doubts it will come. There will be no capltulation in the face of this aggression. despite all the political complications stemming from the facts that are now apparent- nameiy, that the South Korean government because of corruption did not. in its ,own right, warrant the support it has been given. But the American action and of the U. N. was taken In the Korean Stru (lllodal to The Guardian, by loss Munro) onderables . ggie against Red aggression-open. bla- tant aggression. There will be no retreat from this position until the situation has been, adsqu t 'y countered. r But still the question in the minds of diplomats in Tokyo is: what happens at the 38th parallel? On the other point about the Chlnese Reds. it is felt by some experts here that if the North Ko- reans begin to take a licking when the offensive gets going. the Chinese Communist forces will be committed to the campaign by the Russians who call the real shots. Big Blowup Threatened If this happens. the big blowup may come that will mean World War Three. It would hasten the active participation of Soviet Un- ion troops and then the eruption would occur. Until such countries as'Brltain. Australia. New Zealand arid Tur- key declded to send ground troops to assist the Americans in Korea. there was some anxiety here that if no such aid was forthcoming tyne Americans might have-fell com- pelled to accept the Chinese Na- tionalists offer for trope now in Formosa. This probably would have meant immediate movements of the Chin- ese Communists to the front and a localized Korean campaign flam- ing into an all-Asiatic conflict or worse. The situation creates a dilemma that has western people here ex-. tremely worried. "Both these questions are 564 ones." said the Commonwealth diplomat. "If you get the answer in Korea you'll know more about prospects of World War Three than.we do now." (Copyright Southam News ser- vice.) The Department of Industry and Natural Resources has under- taken an extensive farm improve- ment service scheme of clearing. draining. levelling land, improving lanes. digging and filling cellars and other work necessary through- out the Province. Two units are at work in the central section of the Island and one of these is expected to work westwards the first of the week. it was announced yesterday by Hon. Eugene Cullen. Minister of Industry and Natural Resources yesterday. The other unit will work in the Eastern section when work has been completed in the central area. Each unit is self. contained and is fully capable of doing the work outlined. A unit consists of a D. 6 Caterpillar tractor equipped with an hydraulic controlled bulldozer and a I-lystertwinch. Each unit also has a Horsnell ditcher. Considerable work has already been done by these units and all of it is proving satisfactory, stat- ed the Minister. The machines have been busy in Cornwall. Win- sloe, Union Road. Bedford, Mount Herbert and Alberry Plains. There has been a heavy demand for the use of the units and the department has reserved the right to complete the work in one sec- tion before moving to another area in the Province. Working rates for the units has been set at 36.00 an hour for working time. Considerable time is spent, each day in moving and conditioning the machine, for which the farmer is not charged. One unit is operated by Mr. J. Extensive Street Program llnllsrvway .1. Sections which have been paved for parking areas in the city now include both SIGAS of Queen Street from Kent to Euston. both sides of Great George h-om Grafton to Euston. the north side of Kent from Queen to Pownal. and the north side of Grafton from Queen to Pownal. Asphalt surfaces are also being laid on parking areas on the north side of Grafton be- tween Queen and Pownal. the east side of Great George between Sydney and Richmond. and in front of the Y.M.C.A. building. Curbs at the Pownal and Spring Park intersections of Euston Street have been cut 'back to facilitate motor traffic, and in addition con- siderable street work has been done on Rochford, Pownal and Grafton Streets. Clay roads in the city' have been scraped and graded. and over 00 tons of calcium chlora- idda have been spread to eliminate ust.
