George Macxay, Liberai Fourth Prince. last Thursday night answered charges made in the Legislature to the effect that the Department of Agriculture field- men were calling only on the big- ger farmers and that Island farm- ers were putting their hogs on the market too quickly for the good of the market. Mr. MncKay stated that the fleldmen were calling on as many farmers as they could and that they were doing o. good Job. He stated their calls on the loading farmers in the Province helped all farmers lndirecctly. The Fourth Prince Member also quoted figures to show that Island hogs led all other Provinces in the percentage of Grade A hog: mark- eted lsst year.

At any rate over 10% addit- ional tax will be required next year regardless of how it lsossessed and and collected. "We are now told that the School Board is making prepara- tion for a second school. on which I presume. financing will start in 1956. It matters not whether the Board builds this school or has someone else do it for them. The ultimate cost to the taxpayers will he the same. My personal opinion is that it would be cheaper in the ....,r lull for the Board to build the school. Cites Mathews Report “The Matthews report points out that the City, prior to 1962. Paid out over $220,000.00 in rent for school accommodation and states “The survey staff believe it would have been to the financial advant- age of the Charlottetown taxpay- ers if schools had been construct.- ed as the need arose over the years for additional classroom space." At any rate. om has to be very crcdulous to believe that any worth-while saving can be achieved by“ renting rather than building. is second school will therefore require a substantial in- creaselntsxesinloomuidfam now told that it is imperative that the existing echoolrbe remodelled in the near future and the experlu involved will be the equivalent of the cost of another new school. "It is therefore obvious to any- one that if the present program of the school Board is carried out. the cost from this source alone will call for heavy tax irwlellel annually for the next few years unless Santa Claus suddenly ap- pears from some new quarter. ‘'1 would like to :m,huile t-Int.‘ co .1 has absolutely no con- goal 0V:lI'm the school Board in the matter of bulldlns new Ich°°1l-at -- dl to press report-I. 0 “°°°' M of ohuiottowwn. in the Legislat- wn allow the school .....a to build a High School.

But this raises the question——Is in second school necessary at the present time? I personally cannot see that it is. The total enrollment in our schools this year is 2,451. In Queen square school a room unfit for children is being used for a classroom and three classes are housed outside the school it- self. So they are at least four rooms short at the present time. "Prince Street School is stagger- ing two classes and therefore needs two more rooms. Rochford square school needs Lao extra rooms. West Kent School is ac- commodating all its pupils. “The new school with its rooms should provide the neces- sary space for the present over- -crowding and the anticipated in- crease school Population “According to the Matthews sur- vey. the school population will continue to increase until 1958 when there will be upwards of 2.- 900 pupils. There -.pi>ea-rs to be only one argument for the build- ing of a second school with 12 classrooms. It is wholly 91111 80191)’ to have separate schools for Cath- olic and Protestant children.

He realized that this was according to the Act but felt that there was a limit to the amount that the Council should be called upon to pay. Councillor Maccormac felt that the resolution should not be voted upon. ''It should be thrown out," he said, “as it would only cause a lot. of controversy as well as bad feelings between the various class-‘ es in the Clty." Councillor MacDonald agreed with the motion. He said that the school Board had the authority to build the school but it was the citizens of this City who had to pay for them and he felt that such an added expenditure at this time, especially when the need was not established. was not called for. strongly Elects Queen 0, ' "E 9 queen was to a statement made by Mr. MacDonald in the House last week.

As the result of a letter from Arthur Wells of Elmsdole asking for classification of regulations governing the door to door sale of meat in Sunurlerslde, Councillor MacDougall introduced a resolution giving notice of intention of the police committee to present at the next Council meeting. recommen- dations for amendments to the by-law respecting the licensing oil meat vendors, the inspection of meat and regulation of the town abattoir. Dealing with other correspond- ence. spproval was given to I re- quest from Canada Packers for permission to construct a building 5x5 over the fire hydrant in front of the fertilizer plant at the east and of the town. The letter requested that the building be locked to protect a quantity of fire hose belonging to the cornparw that vlould be kept there at all times as a ready protection for their plant in the event of fire. The letter suggested that keys to the building be in the possession of both the company and the fire department. The Mayor suggested Councillor Johnstone said that too many people were of the opin- ion that it was the Council who were building the new high school and such a statement as this made in the Legislature would only tend to increase the misconceptions these people now have.
