In commenting on the just ad- journed session of parliament. the Queens member expressed concern over the current spate Canadian governmental struc- tu re. "At a time when cynicism and criticism of our National Par- liamentary Institution is usual- ly disquieting, . is incumbent upon all men of responsibility to avoid scrupulously anything which would put into ’scord our basic democratic institut- 1011. “The bribery charges and the close vote on Prime ter Pearson’s alleged misleading of the House of Commons really bring no comfort to any Can- adian regardless of his political affiliation." “8 On the flag issue the Queens member declared that the time mt prior to the official proclamat- ion of the new Maple at flag was the only period remaining in which he felt he could pro- perly criticize the flag perform- ance of the government. After it becomes our official symbol it would be inappropri. ate and unhelpful to denigrate that which the low decreed as our flag.” Mr. Macquarrie regretted that so much discord had been created by the prime minister’s introduction of the flag measure at this tense and troubled time of Canadian history. a Mr. Pearson agreed to the sensible suggestion of re- ferring the Maple Leaf design and the Canadian Red Ensign to a national plebiscite at the next general election thereby avoiding lengthy debates and bitter arguments in the House of Commons both parliament and the country would have benefited," he said. The Queens MP also expr ss- ed regret that the government had refused to accept the sug- gestion backed by Progressive Conservatives, NDP’s and other opposition members that Canadian Red Ensign instead of the Union Jack be designated the flag to symbolize our Corn- monwealth states and monar- chical allegance. “This second repudiation of the Ensign hurt and offended many Canadians who had earnestly and sincere- ly partitioned the government its retention,” he felt.

Bacher, 21-year-old rew member of the merchant ship Alexander Von Humboldt which docked here yesierda afternoon to take on a consign- ment of frozen food products. fell into the water off the rail-i w where the ship is tied up, at approximately 5.45 last evening and was only no- ticed after he had managed to crawl out of the water and onto e ice. Apparently in a state of shock he was spotted heading for an- other stretch of open water when Mr. Ramsay descended to the ice and got hold of Bacher other men, Kier Arsenault and June Culletin. Ramsay got the man back onto the wharf from where he was transferred in Prince County Hospital by an ambulance from Compton‘s Fu. neral Home Dr. Henry Moyse attended the sailor at the scene and later at the hospital where late last night he was reported resting comfortably apparently none the worse from his unexpected swim. Crews were busy loading the Seaman Bros. Cargo last night and are expected to continue un- til the ship is loaded and ready to sail. The ice breaker CCGS Tapper preceded the German-registered Von Humboldt into Summerside Harbor Saturday evening. forg- before he fell in for a second 6 . ing a path through the ice for merhcant ship.

Mr. Olubb said shipbuilders " pace with the evo- lutionary developments of naval construction." He added that in order to carry out their respon- sibilities, shipbuilders need “the cooperation of our na- tional government in providing a long range naval policy." Rear- irai J. B. Caldwell, chief of naval technical serv- ices, officially accepted the An- napolis from the builder. The apolis bears the name of the river which winds through Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley, but also perpetuates the name of one of the navy's famous famous Second World War de- orrginad Annapolis, built stroyers.
