CHARLOTTETOWN ' Addresses Rotarians On Maritime Co-operation "one thing we might achieve through oo-ope atiui. with the other Atlantic Provinces. and that is uniformity in text books as far as possible." said Hon. Walter E. Darby, Attorney General, in an address on Maritime Co-operation delivered at the Rotary Luncheon held at the -Charlottetown Hotel yesterday. Mr. Darby, who based his so- marks on several primary subjects under review by the Atlantic Prov- ince Premiera during their round table diacumiori at Moncton last -week, went on to say: "Here, we are tied up with text books-as used in some other Provinces. which are changed too frequently and we are compelledto fail in line with the changes. even though we do not approve. If we could co-ordin- ato the Education Departments on matters of this kind. we should be able to reduce prices and avoid rapid changes. "In this Province a major prob- lem of co-ordination which would bofpractically impossible for the Government to overcome, is the scattered high-school system which New Brunswick enjoys," Mr. Darby said. "Books, grading and teach- ers would be difficult to arrange on a. Maritime or Atlantic Province scale, especially with Newfound- land where they have denomina- tional schoois. and we would not care to dictate to them regarding a uniform curriculum." Tons-lat 'Promotion Speaking of tourist promotion he pointed out the difficulty in agreeing in a large way about the iiigiiugnta each Province had to offer the holiday seeker. except that all would be under the ne- cessity of seeing that everyone was properly entertained and properly fed. "In literature and advertising it is obvious that each Province would desire to draw as much.tour- lat traffic as possible.” "An area in which this Prov- ince would probably be able to benefit would be the Canadian National Exhibition, where under a combined show the Island would take part in thin; worth while. as compared with our poa- sibilities now where our space and showing would be entirely too small to be effective. Working together we can all make a much better showing." Regarding the economic develop- ment of the Atlantic Provinces. Mr. Darby said the Provinces were well defined within the framework of the Canadian Constitution, with privileges and responsibilities well understood. "We should try to work out and co-ordinate individual developments which would rebound to the benefit of all. Maritime pro- ducts might be surveyed and pro- perly advertiaed with a view to considering more favourably what each has to offer when making purchases, rather than going farth- er afield. A field survey of what sister provinces are producing and can produce. with stress on the advantages of accepting the pro- ducts within this framework. rath- er than on the long haul basis, ap- pears to be desirable," said Mr. Darby. New England Council He described the operations of the council of New England which on the recommendation of Boards of Trade and similar organizations. dealt with new industries or those requiring t , ary assistance. and provided financial help when con- ditlons warranted. "We should not look too much for Government assistance in moves towards economical im- provements in these Provinces," Mr. Darby said. "but rather you should enter the field yourselves with a certain amount of risk cap- ital and the Governments would probably encourage such action with a certain amount as a con- tribution towards the success of such a venture. ' "One thing is certain if the Boards of Trade came forward with concrete proposals. govern- ments would be in a position to say we are willing to help. as is done by the New England Council, if deemed advisable." In introducing the speaker and subject, Rotarian Geo. J. Tweedy. commented on the possible out- come of the conference of Atlan- tici Province Premiers and quoted Col. Gray as follows in his speech at Charlottetown during the Con- federation deliberations ln 1865: "One remark, however he would make, and it was this, that he ain- cerely and confidently believed that this visit would be productive of much good, and serve as the happy harbinger of such a. union of sentiment and interests among the three and a half million of free- men. who now inhabit British Am- erica, as neither time nor change could forever destroy." I Mr. Newman MacLeilan the co- chairman. thanked the speaker for his timely and authorattve ad- dress. Rotarian Rev. Canon J. T. Ib- bott received a cordial welcome back to the club following his re- cent marriage and absence from the Province. Mr. Ray Tinney of the Bumrnerside club was it visiting Rotarian and guests were: Joeffrey Richmond. Toronto. Eric Love. Dover-lloxcroft. Maine, and Wallie Pyatt, Saint John. NB.

W. E. Darby Introduction of New Lodge Matron A pleasing feature of the- first seasonal meeting of the Rainbow Club held at the YMCA. yester- day afternoon waa the introduction to the members of Sr. Major Irene Henderson, the recently appointed Matron of Sunset Lodge. 'The in- troducticna were made by the as- sistant Matron, Maidr Stevens. Plans were formulated for "Open House" afternoon on the occasion of the completion of the new annex to Sunset Lodge which is expected to take place towards the end of November. - Major Stevens was responsible for a nicely arranged tea hour at which Mrs. Noel DeBlcls poured and several members assisted at serving. The meeting was presided over by the President, Mrs. Ruby Houle, C.DA. U. 5., public transport concerns carry 18.000.000.000 fares a year and that some 100,000,000 persons made an average of 160 trips a year by transit vehicles. ' -Traffic measures. such as use of more modern equipment. build- ing of radial expressways and provision of downtown parking areas were either inadequate or did more harm than good by briiig- lng still more automobiles into city centres. Where possible. there should be more widespread use of large car parking lots on cheaper ground well beyond congested areas and served by fast and frequent bus service on "a bargain-fare" bi-isis. other suggestions to ban all private motorists from downtown streets during certain hours "prob- ably overrcach today's necessi- tiea,” he said, but would "gain increasing consideration and at- tention in the not too distant ful- ure" unless traffic densities at peak hours stopped getting 81'9fW31'- Urge More Training Both George Barton and Frank- lin M. Kreml of Northwestern Unl- vei-sity's Chicago Traffic Institu-to urged more extensive training of traffic experts and greater co- ordination between various city agencies in dealing with the prob- lem. Mr. Barton said cities should first reclassify their street network to find who benefited most from highway facilities, and charges should be levies on those who bene- fited most from improvements. Mr. Kreml warned delegates that if cities couldn't keep their traffic moving despite the increasing num- ber of cars, downtown areas would stagnate and fall into slums, and decentralization would be acceler- ated at an unhealthy raleg Provisions of more streets, ex- pressways, and parking places would help relieve congestion. "But these take time and a great deal of money. We must make better use of what we now have- luid much more can" be done with what we have than is generally appreciated." Henry Barnes. recently appointed director of traffic in Baltimore, also told delegates to do the best they could with what they had on hand. "Anything you can do to specrl up traffic, even though you may think it costs a lot of money in- itially, probably saves money in the long run." Too many traffic officials lack imagination. They worked from the book. and were scared to do things. Mr. Barnes said that no matter what was done, "the ultimate ans- wer to the problem is going to have to lie with better public transit facilities You can provide all the off-street parking you like, but it only attracts more traffic."

MacArthur Davis Thoinu 22, was paddling a canoe up the Kspuakasing River in Ontario at about the time his Dad in Vancouver. obeying a hunch, tried to contact him by tele- phone. An hour later the cmpty canoe was found on the more. apparently having been upset by - rapids. Thomas and a companion, Alan Mcliurney, had drowned. The inhabitants of Lewis, in the Hebrides, have a strange. secret custom, which never fails to per-, plex visitors. Every I-Iallowe'en they attend the church of St. Maivey, where one of them. holding a cup of brewed ale, in his hand. wades into the sea to his middle and addressing an ancient seagod says: r "shony I give you this cup of ale. hoping that you will be so kind as to send us plenty of seaweed for enriching our land in the coming year." . After this amazing pagan cele- bration, all the inhabitants repair to the little chapel and stand in silence while a candle is lighted and placed on the altar. The custom dates back to at least 1695. and today the ancient ceremony of propitlating the sea- god at I-Iallowtide is still in vogue. . . . Few of us realize the great part seaweed has played in occniltlsm since earliest times. Associated in the first plac: with the worship of the seagods, it was said to be the home of certain sea spirits, all anxious to work for humanity, but that the sea was so jealous of the land that as quickly as weed was washed up to the beaches it was sucked back a- gain by the greedy ocean. Wise women of old, when a far- mer complained of poor crops, would, for a handful of silver coins, "petition the moon" on his behalf, lilld then recommend that the land should be fertilized with seaweed. Magic was the forerunner of science. Now it has been discovered that seaweed is the finest n.itural fertilizer extant, far superior to animal manure or chemical soil agents; that it increases the bac- teria which enrich the soil. and is naturally rich in all the trace ele- ments. The value of seaweed as a soil fertilizer par excellent was well known to many Island farmers not so many years back. Today too much emphasis is being placed on imported fertilizers. Too little on the products of the rivers, good seaweed and muscle mud. . . . While on vacation at a little re- sort near Dieppel France, in the summer of 1951, two English wo- men, Mrs. Dot Norton and Miss Agnes Norton, her sister-in--law, saw re-enacted that hlstoiy-inak- ing Dieppe raid. The women shared ai bedroom facing the sea. They'd chosen the Dleppe area for their vacation. July 26 to Aug 5. because one of the two had spent a pleasant holi- day there the year before. The amazing statement of the two women from which this story is taken, together with additional data collected by G. W. Lambert. C.B., and Helen Gray, appeared in the Journal of the Society for Psychical Research (British) May- June issue, 1952. The quoted mat- crial is published by permission of that society. Saturday, Aug. 4, 1051, Agnes Norton got up at 4.20 a.m.. decid- ed to switch bit the lights but. didn't. Said Dot Norton, "What is that noise I hear in the dis- tance?" "I can't say" returned the other ”but I've been hearing it now for some minutes. I wokeiup before it started." The other wo- man said she had also been lis- tening to it for some minutes. We lay in the dark It sounded like a storm at sea and we could dis- tinctly hear the sound of guns and voices. Then we went out on the porch where we could com- mand a better view of the sea. The noise grew intensity; it came in swells of sound interspersed by other sounds - the bursting of shells. At 4.50 a.m. the tumult died down. At 5.05 am. it started again and increased in intensity. No- body else was about and we won- dered at. this. By now it was break- ing day. Cocks were crowing and birds were singing their love songs Then we heard it rifle shot on the hill above the beach. "The soun became more re- cognizable as dive-bombers ratlier than the noises we heard cai'iiei', although we could still hear those. The noise ceased at 5.10 a.m. and at 5.50 a.m. it started again. We went back to our bed and I fell asleep being very tired. "I was awakened by a aimllal sound on Monday. July 30th at the end I fancied I heard a group of men singing. My sister; in-lalw did not waken." During the occurance of this auditory phenomenon both wrmieii checked their watches for accur- acy of time and strange but true what they heard actually comes- ponded with what took place dur- ing the British raid of Aug. ill, 1942, in which the Royal Regiment of Canada was practically wiped out.

Director of the Dominion Drama Festival, with headquarters at Ot- tawa, arrived in Charlottetown last evening to confer with Mr. Barry Bugden, regional director and gov- ernor of the festival. Is well as the five other governors of the festival. namely" I-Ila I-fonor T. W. L. Prcwse, T. D. DeBlois, T. Harry Morris, Mrs. Fred Gates, and Judge Palmer. Mr. Macbonnld. who is on a tour of DramaI"estival Groups through- out Canada. has Just completed his visit in Newfoundland. and is moving from east to west, right through to Vancouver. Beaiuse cf the increased interest. he has 34 regions to visit this year, compar- ed with 36 last years. Three years ago. there were only 20. The purpose of his visit is to establish closer relations and con- tact with the regional committees. to find out their problems,.and what can be done about them. "The festival has become a fact", he states, "so we must find ways and means of extending its ser- vices". As an example, he told of play and information service which has been set up which pro- vides library for groups interested in drama. Also a bi-monthly news letter is now being sent out to over 3,000 people across Canada, outlining what others are doing, thus tying 250 groups in a com- mon bond. "The New Brunswick festival this year has been the most suc- cessful since the war", said Mr. MacDonald. "A surplus far greater than what was asked for was re- alized, with the result that with this surplus the Dominion body was able to send a competent director who gave instruction to three groups at Fredericton. St. Stephen and Saint John. "We hope the time will come when we shall obtain a permanent adviscr, and we are looking for- ward to a theatre conference at the end of the final festival. which will be participated in by all those interested." Mr. MacDonald expressed regret that Prince Edward Island, last year, was not represented in the Festival. This was because they were not able to get three full length plays ready in time to par- ticipats. "We are certainly hoping that P. E. I. will be represented this year," he said. "A great deal will depend upon the support giv- en by the public. The prestige of I I Mr. Richard MacDonald ', Prince Edward Island is at stake dramatically if they are not". The Regional Festival on the Island next year will be on March 12 and 13. but these dates can be extended if enough groups are en- tercd. The director pointed out that although one-act plays can- not compete in the Dominion Fes- 'tival, they can be entered and ad- judicated in the Regional. Interest in the drama has been very marked during the past Jew years. This is shown by the large attendance, culminating with me Siratford Shakespearian Festival composed of 90"; Canadians who were, previous to that venture. mostly amateurs. There was a 9776 seatl sale and the Festival carried on for five weeks instead of the four weeks intended. Mr. MacDonald believes that be- cause of the interest shown in the "live theatre" the public are de- manding more plays of the legiti- mate stage. I-le observes that per- haps the greatest obstacle to this is the lack of suitable auditorlums. While in Charlottetown, Mr. MacDonald will meet.with mem- bers of the Charlottetown -Little Theatre Guild and the Provincial Drama Festival Association. To- night he will address a meeting In the City Council Chambers to 0 ' ' '0 " r ml':llic are invited. The Calvert Trophy will be presented .vl.B(LL)(l.'l3.ld to Mr. Barry -lsugden. regional chairman of the lP'estival. MONTREAL. (OF) --A strike that could have tied up almost all of Canada's inland shipping was averted Monday when representa- tives of the Seafarers Internaionai Union ('I'IC-AFL) and four large shipping concerns reached agree- ment on a dispute over wages and working hours. Announcement of the settlement was made by Arthur Mai-.Na.mai'a. appointed government mediator in the dispute. The shipping companies-Colom ial Steamship Lines, Canada Steamship Lines. N. P. Peterson and Sons. and Upper Lakes and St. Lawrence Trarispoatation Ltd. -agreed to put a 40-hour work week into effect Oct. 1 on all their ships. seamen will be paid time-and-a-half for Saturday work, double-time for Sunday work. The union dropped demands for a S50-s-month general wage in- crease. The seafarers now will receive the same monthly pay but will work shorter hours. Base wages range from 800 a month to 3400. depending on the type of work done.
