"The people of this community were encouraged to incorporate as a Village so that they would then be in a position to deal with such a problem affecting the area, and it is safe to assume that this was the purpose of incorporation, the providing of a safe water supply. sidewalks. street lights. and other necessary services for the area. WATER SUPPLY PROBLEM "There are two solutions to the providing of a safe water supply. which is our most urgent prob- lem. First. the drilling of private wells which would be deep enough to get water below the strata of contaminated supply. or second, thegbuilding of water and sewer mains which would supply pure water and adequate sewage dis- posal. "The cost of deep wells would. in most cases. be prohibitive to the home owners in the area. so that the only acceptable solution is that this area embark on a com- munlty project of supplying these services or by financial arrange- ment with Charlottetown to supply the services if such can be ar- ranged. "Following this line of reason- ing the ratepayers of the Village of Parkdale. at the annual meet- ing. held on February 2. 1954. authorized the Commissioners to seek advice of a consulting en- gineer who was then engaged in doing extension work to the exist- lns sewer system in the Town of summerslde. Mr. W. H. Crsndell.

Touching on Hospital-patient-re-: lations he said "the public are no lonser willing to be dismissed with childish stories.

I "Fear is one of the biggest factors in producing emotional ills and is associated with the stress and strain of modern liv- ing." the speaker said. "This frequeltlly results in anxiety, which in turn creates bodily ten- sion. which if not relieved, pro- duces illness mental and physi- c . "The stress theory holds that many diseases have no single cause. no specific pathogens, but are largely due to non-specific stress. and to pathogenic situa- tions which result from inappro- pritate responses to such non- specific stress." At the afternoon session. Dr. . A. MacVicar spoke on "How to win patients and influence Doctors." In the evening the 39;. sion continued and was follow- ed by a buzz group and general discussion.

"Following this discussion a motion was made. and unanimous- ly carried, that this Village pro- ceed with the building of sewers and water mains providing that the Provincial Government would permit Parkdale to withdraw from the School Unit. Parkdale would maintain its own school. and pro- vide for these added services. "From the figures of the school year 1954-55 it is apparent that Parkdale School District as it was constituted at the time of incor- poration into the Unit subsidized School Unit No. 1 in the amount of Three Thousand Three Hund- red and Thirty-five (&'i,S35.00l Dollars per year. In other words. Parkdale School District is pay- ing this amount over and above the charges which are payable in respect of the annual mainten- ance of its school. If we consider the area comprised by the Village of Parkdale. then It will be ap- parent from the figures for the same year that this area is sub- sidizing School Unit No. 1 to the amount of approximately Four Thousand Nine Hundred and Thirty-five (S-4,935.00) Dollars per year. This area can not afford to do this when it is in such a dif- ficult position with relation to water and sewerage. The people- of the district feel that by with- drawal from the School Unit this money will be made available for the urgently needed sewerage and water facilities. , PROPOSED PLEBISCITI "We note that the proposal of the Government. in dealing with this matter, is to hold A plebiscite within the Unit. to determine If the people wish to split up the Unit, and if they so decide. to ap- point a Commission to decide what shall then be done in regard to reallocatlng and running the re- sulting school districts. "In closing we wish to make very clear to you these three points: ' "First. It is not our wish to break up the School Unit. and as this seems to be the decision we will be called on to make when we vote on the proposed plebis- cite. this vote will not. In any way. serve to solve our problem, but will only confuse those voting. "second, we have obligations to the citizens of the Village.

(AP) - A fur-hattcd young Russian wounded a Soviet guard at the British embassy Sun- day night with pistol fire and. spouting gibberish, forced his way inside. Two unarmed British at- taches captured him there. They turned him over to Soviet police. The intruder. a well-dressed man of about 25. was subdued in the second-floor living quarters of Ambassador Sir William and Lady Hayter. They returned from a skiing trip in the country just as he was being taken away. Moscow diplomatic observers were inclined to attach no political significance to the incident. They dismissed it as the individual ac- tion of a person presumably mentally disturbed. EMBASSY HEAVILY GUARDED The gunman's identity has not been disclosed. He appered at the high iron gates of the embassy court yard. in the centre of the capital just across the Moscow river from the Kremlin. There he whipped out a pistol and blasted the guard in the chest. Then he ran 30 yards to the front door of the embassy mansion. He shoved aside a British guard, vaulted up the broad stairs to the second floor and into the stately main dining room. Meanwhile the guards down- stairs had called third secretary John A. L. Morgan, 25. and chan- cery guard Thomas Gray, 32. The athletic pair rushed from their nearby apartments. jumped the gun-waving intruder and forcibly dlsarmed him. Like all foreign missions in Moscow, the British embassy is heavily guarded. Night and day, two or more uniformed Russian policemen, with pistols at their belts. are posted at front and back gates in the high brick wall that surrounds the grounds. Plain- clothes police also are stationed outside the gates when the am- bassador ls inside. (Continued from page 1) Premier Maiheson in this Province.

The Premier emphatically de- nied the inference made by Mr. MacDonald that he was taken into the Murray Harbor district by a certain contractor.

(CP)-Iggy Crotty walked to school Monday afternoon for the first time in nearly a year and had a "grand time." His mother says Iggy. Canada's most famous accident victim. was "just waiting to go back again tomorrow." Iggy was equipped with a brand new pencil and scribbler for his first classroom appearance since last May 31 when a car ran him down in the street. His agonizing fight for life ended happily only two weeks ago when the nine-year- old returned home after treatment in Toronto. Iggy had planned to return to class Monday morning but because of a layer of ice covering the streets Mrs. Crotty kept him home until the afternoon. WANTED TAXI He returned to grade 2. the grade he had completed at the time of the mishap that catapulted his story into front pages across the country. When Iggy was preparing to leave he told his mother "you bet- ter get a taxi for me." Mrs. Crotty said later in an in- terview that "if I got a taxi to- day I'd have to get one tomorrow and it might go on like that. So I thought he'd better walk. It's only a ' -'-minute walk and he didn't mind it a bit." His 13-year- old sister ccompanied him. After school was dismissed Iggy phoned his mother to say he had a "grand time."

Earlier in his speech. Churchill said he proposed a meeting with Malenkov with Eisenhower's knpw- ledge on his way home from a con- ference with the president In Wash- ington last June. He said he received "a very friendly and encouraging reply" from Foreign Minister Molotov July 5. and on July 20 he sent Molotov another message propos- ing a meeting in late August or early September in Berna.

This he- lief is based on the fact that Can- ada exports much , quantit- ies of potatoes than we import. For example. from 1049 to Nov- ember, 1954. Canada exported 28 million bushels of potatoes to the United States. This is more than twice the 12.5 million " T ' of potatoes we imported during the same period from the United States. "As a rule. imports exceed ex- ports only during relatively rare periods of abnormal disturbance. In 1954. for example. Canada Im- ported larger quantities of pota- toes than usual. The reason for this was that Maine had a large crop of unusually low quality potatoes. Since these potatoes had to be moved quickly to avoid spoilage there were large ship- ments from Maine to a number of markets. including Canada. This development was an abnormal one and It is thought that the trade will return to a more nor- mal pattern in the near future. "In closing I would like to as- sure you that thls department has carefully noted the contents of the resolution passed by the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island and that we shall press for a . duction in the United States tariff at every opportunity." , Senator Barbour said in part: "My though is that instead of in- creasing the tariff on American potatoes coming to Canada we should be working towards the elimination of the am cents per hundredweight on our-table stock potatoes goln to the United States.

Mr. MacNaught said: "This promlem has been receiving our attention for some time.
