W. Matheson a brief outlining their reasons why the various governments of Canada should come to the aid of Canadians seeking higher education. The brief stresses that all Canadians lhave the right t “equality of op- portunity" in r gard to educat- ion, and that no citizen of this nation should be prevented from seeking to further his education by lack of sufficient finances. To this end the students organiza- tion have presented briefs to each Canada asking that they devise some acceptable method of pro- viding annually at least 10,000 scholarships valued at $550 each. Members of the delegation wait- ing on the Premier were left to right: Walter Tarnopolosky Sas- lof the 11 governing bodies in Mayor Sees Interest In Civic Affairs Good Sign “As long as there are as many public-spirited citizens willing to offer for election as have come forward for this one, we need have no fear for civic govern- rrzent in this city,” stated Mayor J. David Stewart in a farewell address delivered in, the Council Chamber last evening. His Worship spoke following a. dual presentation ceremony that was held in the Chamber at the conclusion of the last regular meeting of the present Council prior to its dissolution. From the City the‘ Mayor re- ceived as a parting gift a sterling silver rose bowl bearing the fol- lowing inscription: “Presented to J. David Stewart, D.S.O., E.D., Mayor of Charlottetown, 1951- 1958. In Grateful Appreciation, From the Citizens of Charlotte- town." From the City Building employees His Worship received a cut crystal decanter. The gifts were presented to His Worship by Councillor Edwin C. Johnstone on behalf of the City, and Miss Mary McQuaid on be- half of the City Hall employees. FORTUNATE CHOICE Addressing His Worship on be- half of the citizens Councillor A. Walthen Gaudet noted that the City had been “very blest indeed” in their choice of a Chief Magis- trate seven years ago. Noting also that during his term in office Mayor Stewart had been called on to give leadership in “the great challenge present- ed by the 1955 Centenial celebr- ation," Councillor Gaudet stated: “If that were the only contribut- ion His Worship had been called to make, he would have deserved greater; praise than any other Chief Magistra .” Recalling that Mayor Stewart had brought honor to the city and province by his appointment as president of the Canadian Association of Mayors and Mun- icipalities, Councillor Gaudet ob- served that he had performed these duties “with dignity and efficiency.” Concluding his address to the Mayor, Councillor Gaudet said “We want you to know that we appreciate the firm leadership you have given this council dur- ing your term as Mayor. . . .'I‘-hank you for a job well done indeed.” DEEPLY APPRECI/‘ '.'.‘IVE Speaking for all the employees at City Hall, Mr. Ernest Seller CITY AIIII 0ENTRAL_ KNIGHTS of Columl .13 pre- lenten Dance, Rollaway, Feb. 13.

The decision to run such ads was taken at last night’s regular monthly meeting of the City Coun- cil following a plea for clearer in- structions to voters, introduced by Councillor O'Neill, and strongly supported by all members of the Council, in particular Councillors Foster, Nicholson and Gormley. Councillor O'Neill said that he had encountered a great deal of confusion regarding voting rights during the present campaign. Four other resolutions received approval at this meeting which was highlighted by presentations to the City's retiring Chief Magis- gate, J. David Stewart, D.S.0., .D. Jersey City Water Break Is Puzzler JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) — City engineers, still baffled by a gigantic break in a water main, succeeded late«Monday in reduc- ing a water loss which so far has amounted to 16,000,000’ gallons. The underground break at 10:40 p.m. Sunday had poured 1,300,000 gallons hourly into the ground un- til lvioiiday afternoon. By mid- morning, City Engineer Harold M. Ohland estimated the loss rep- resented a lake three feet deep covering four city blocks. The loss caused the close of schools and factories and for a time water pressure was so low firemen couldn’t have fought a blaze. But by shutting off several con- trol points and stopping industrial water use, the loss was reduced to 300,000 gallons an hour. . The possibility of cave-ins, fires and explosions caused August W. Heel-iman, public works director, to declare a state of emergency. Some 100,000 residents, about a third of the population, found themselves without water pres- sure for a. time. But later pres- sure was brought up to 35 pounds REFRIGERATOR REPAIRS ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING Repairs to all Automatic Washers and Appliances STOREY ELECTRIC 175 Grafton St. Dial 3237 S’Side Councillor Reports $4500 Saved On Park Care While maintaining all neces- sary care and maintenance. $4500- 00 was saved on parks in 1957 as compared with the previous year. Councillor Elmer J. Newson, Chairman of the Property. Parks and Squares Committee, said last evening in his report at the a . .u- al meeting of the Summerside Town Council. The installation of extra water outlets in the Civic Stadium re- sulted in a reduction of the fire insurance rate the town had been paying on this building, said Coun- cillor Newson, in reporting on work on a new promenade, a new floor in the main entrance, a new fire proof floor in the men’s rest room, and the addition of a new fire escape on the exterior on the South East corner, of the Stadium On the exterior of the stadium a number of loads of gravel was spread in front of the main en- trance for improved walking be- tween the rink and the street. Councillor Newson said that his department also had the roof of the electric light plant and adjoin- ing garage, and the roof of the snow plow garage resurfaced with an asphalt coating which is guaranteed for eight years. The most important property improvement, said Covincillor Newson, was the relaying of the main floor in the auditorium, which was done by the contract- ors at no extra cost to the town. At the auditorium a new cem- ent walk was laid from the main entrance to Beaver Street, to the parking lot west of the auditorium also from Central Street to Sum- mer Street, and north on Summer Street connecting with the walk at the New High School. In ad- dition to this he said, a good deal of work was done on the parking lost west of the auditorium, and also on the parking lot, now cover- ed with asphalt, in front of the auditorium. In addition to the planting of shrubs and flowers, considerable landscaping was also done in con- nection :with this property, he said. Councillor Newson, in his an- nnal report, also mentioned the sale of a house and lot, known as the Mclnnis property for the sum of $3050.00. a square inch-—enough to provide » drinking water and a safe level for fighting fires. It also lessened the threat of explosions in the heating plants of large apartments and indus- tries. Normal pressure i s 45 pounds. . FACES EVACUATION-.. Deputy Police Chief Joseph B. Foley, the city civil defence di- rector, said he is set to evacuate 1,000 residents to the Jersey City armory if the leak is found under any‘ tenement area. National Guard trucks would be used and commercial b u s e s comman- deered. Harry A. 0’Meal-ia, president of the Jersey City chamber of com- merce, said 195 plants, big and small, had closed to conserve water. They employ 23,500 work- ers and will zemain closed unless the leak is found. Twenty schools closed, giving some 16,000 pupils‘ a holiday. Leaves were cancelled for policemen and‘ firemen. Many of those on duty were assigned to the force of “leak hunters” which numbered close to 1,000. Dennis J. Sullivan, city health officer, suggested cverybody boil drinking water as a‘ precaution. Technicians from Esso Stand- ard Oil Company proposed using the isotopes to find the break. They suggested dumping radio- active isotopes ln the water sup- ply and then tracing them with a geiger counter to see where they accumiila-te. The isotopes would not be harmful, they said. The scientists said the system never has been used on a large scale but has been used to find leaks in heating systems. 308,000 CITIZENS This industrial city numbers 308,000 persons and lies on the Hudson River across from New York City. It gets its water.from a large reservoir at Boonton in north- west New Jersey. Two 72-inch inch steel pipelines and an 8%- inch concrete conduit carry the water to a smaller reservoir at Troy Street here where it is chan- neled into the city system. .Wa-ter department employees, working in 13-degree tempera- tures, checked every foot of the 26‘-mile-long pipeline from Boon- ton during the night. The search finally was narrowed to the down- town area where all pipes are un- derground and inaccessible. ‘ Bring Dead In Munich Crash MANCHESTER, England (Reu- ters)—A freight airliner Monday night brought home the bodies of 17 persons killed in a plane crash in Munich, West Germany, last Thursday. ‘ Thousands of sports fans lined the road leading to the airport as the plane landed. It carried the bodies of five Manchester United soccer players, three club offi- cials, a local businessman and eight sports reporters. The bodies of four other victims were taken off the plane at Lon- don. ‘ Seventeen hearses drove from ‘the airport to the Manchester United playing field, where the club flag flrw at half staff. Ten of the bodies will lie in the gym- nasium overnight. The others were taken to their homes. Churchill May, Visit In N. B.
