While maximum power of the new ship will be 8,000 horsepower. collective power of the Abcgwetts engines is 12,000. The Abegwelt's length between perpendiculars is 348 feet. while that of the New- foundland ship is 320. Deadweight. carrying capacity of the Abegwelt is 2,000 tons compared to 1,800 for the planned vessel and its speed lo knots compared to the other's 15. Auto Accommodation . since the new ship will carry no railway cars as the Abegweit does, it will load 75 automobiles compar- ed to the Prince Edward Island ship's 60. Loaded draft Vt the Abegweit is 19 feet compared to ill for the ship to serve the Cabot Strait run. These figures, obtained from the Department of Transport today. show clearly that the Abegweltis still queen of the ferry-vessels of Canada and ranks high for this type of carrier in the world. In construction of the new vessel to serve Canada's tenth Province, it is taken into consideration that the freight load will not be nearly as great as that carried constantly by the Abegwelt. Newfoundland has comparatively little to export to other Canadian Provinces. its goods such as newsprint, fish and fish products being sent; to other countries. Will Colt 84.500300 Estimated cost of construction of the new ship is 94,500,030. While this is close to the overall cost of the Abegweit. the Transport De- partment points out that the price of steel has almost doubled since the new Prince Edward Is- land forry's keel was laid at sorel in 1914. Other materials and labor costs have advanced heavily since that time. so that the figures can- not easily be compared. when the Newfoundland ship is built and put into service. it will be operated by the Canadian Nat- ional lullwsys.

Jan. 23 -(AP) - Prime Minister Attlee today urg- ed a watchful wait.-and-see policy by the United Nations toward Red China in the hope that a peaceful settlement in Korea is yet pos- sibie. In a policy statement cheered by the House of Commons, the Prime Minister said Britain agrees the stark facts in Korea warrant tcondemnlng Chinese intervention in support of an aggressor.” But he said the U. N. "should not at this stage take is new and important decision" embodied in a United States resolution naming Communist China herself an out- right aggressor. He also said he does not approve another part of the U. S. resolut- ion.

Two suggestions which were made by the meeting were "Charlottetown Mardl Gras" and "Weirome Tourist Week." It was thought, however. that these.could. be improved upon and it should be left. to the public to forward suggestions. The forwarder of the accepted name will be suitably recognized by the committee in charge. (Coupon for this contest is on page 5). It was thought by the meeting that all residents would cooperate fully in making the week an out- standing success. and Mayor Mac- Donald stated he was quite sure the City would do all in its power to assist the committee in charge. The meeting passed a motion requesting all service clubs and organizations to have at least one representative on the planning committee, and that they endeav- or to be present at the next meet- ing which will be held in the City Hall at 8 p. m. on January 29.
