OIIARLOTTETOWN, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 3. 194a llur Mllk Problem The committee'of three, appointed last September by the Milk Producers’ and _Vendars Association, to enquire into the possibility of an increase in the price of fluid milk in Prince Ed- ward Island, reported back to the Association last evening. r _ lt will be necessary to convince the M_Ill< Board that any increase which the Association may ask for is valid by reason of an increase in the cost of production to the farmer and producer and or an added cost of processing and delivery to the vendor to the point where a reasonable profit disappears. The question of a price increase was fully discussed at the September meeting of the As- sociation. The majority of the producers based their claim for an Increase on the fact that the orice of milk to the farmer, was actually consid- srably less than that set by the Board. This con- dition is due to the problem of surplus milk, which is usually paid for at a much lower price than quota milk, and consequently cuts down the average price of the latter. A minority of the producers believed that the cost of production had actually dropped because of the favourable season and harvest. All felt that if the current price could be guaranteed for a two or thrce vear period, no incivase would be necessary. The vendors, on their side, base their casc on the surplus milk problem, the rising costs of supplies and the problem of the vanishing mill: bottles. » Apart from the pros and cons pirt forward by both the producers ond vendors which, after all, is a matter for the Milk Board to decide upon, the consumer should feel satisfied that any in- crease would be just, necessary and unavoidable. All uneconomic practices in the Island's milk business should be eliminated before asking the consumer to pay more. Consideration should be given to the cost of overlapping in time and effort in the two factors of collection from the farm and the distribution to the customer. On one single road, we are told, some dozen producers make a dozen single trips daily into town with their milk. One truck could pick up the milk on this road as part of its regular route, thereby saving an estimated two hours per day per farmer. This would save the dozen milk-producers, industrially speaking, two full l2 hour farming days every day, which should materially reduce the cost of production. lt is claimed that mainland producers get a higher price for milk collected at the farm, than Island farmers are paid when they, themselves, deliver it to the city plants. . The vendors on their side, also overlap on the deliveries. lt is possible that all of the dozen- and-a-half vendors visit each street daily which would constitute an immense waste of time and effort — a cost which must be met by the con- sumer. Then, too, no answer has been found so far to the surplus milk problem, both the producer and the vendor suffering it as a costly nuisance and the consumer paying for it. The president of the Milk Producers’ and Vendors’ Association, Mr. Andrew MacRae, has pointed out that other communities have mct their fluid milk problems, which were identical with the present situation in P. E. l., by establish- irg a central receiving station. Trucks from this station collect the milk from the farms of the producers. lt is pasteurized, bottled and delivered with the efficiency and economy of a single unit. Surplus milk is processed to butter, cheese, chocolate milk or ice cream, according to its grade, the producer receiving its full value. Such an ideal may be a long way off, but the nearer the milk business approaches it, the less it will cost to produce a quart of fluid milk for the family. Education For The Future A new trend in education, based on the bit- ter experiences of two world wars is evident from the discussions of leading ’educationisfs at tho recent International Seminar on Educational Re- construction held at the University of Maryland. Some significant observations from the report of Mr, Henry Janzen, who was Canadian represen- tative to the Seminar , are quoted in the current bulletin of the Canadian Teachers’ Federation. "l~f education is actually successful in imbu- Ing a person with high moral principles," w_rites Mr. Janzen, "these should be valid wherever one lives on the face of the earth. The important thing ls to teach people love, respect, tolerance, hones- ty, and all the simple virtues first in the home, then in the school and community and later in line's country. There are fundamental "virtues common to all mankind. Important among these are apen-mindedness and the desire to sea the ether person's point of view, first within our own small groups and later extended to internation- al groups. There is no automatic "carry-over" of such desirable attitudes. They must be achieved through proper channels of either actual or vicar- laus experiences. "Basic self-centred attitudes have been formed in millions of’ people due to ideologies of race superiority, super-nationalism and ingrained national prejudice. These have caused fanati- cisms, the will to dominate, lust for power, ex- treme aggressiveness in some, and in turn have aroused deep fears, defense attitudes, longing for security, hatreds, and basic prejudices III others. The latter have become so widespread that there is now a fundamental pessimism and dltilluslariment regarding the possibilities of world peace." i These statements go to the root of the much discussed question of what constitutes true education. They represent the only realistic ap- proach to the subject today, and to be GPPlied effectively they must be inculcated long before the student reaches the high school or univer- sity stage. They involve, among other things, the development of a programme of teacher train- ing which will prepare teachers for the teach- ing of world citizenship. The tremendous pos- sibilities in this new approach to education have been visualized only by a few advanced minds as yet. If we are to survive the atomic bomb and other as yet unknown weapons of scientific warfare, they will have to be translated into terms of everyday knowledge and experience.

A. A. McDonald, on movlng for the second reading of a bill to vest n certain portion of Govern- merit House Farm In the Clty of Charlottetown for purposes therein mentioned, said it appeared that the Farm is held In trust by the Gav- ernor General, and he ls willing. if the Legislature will pass a blll for that purpose, to allow e portion of It, about. forty acres, to be appropri- ated for a park for the use of the citizens of Charlottetown and the Island generally. Hon. Mr. llaythorne noted that the bill rzlves a general description which may be understood by per- sons acquainted with the locality, but It. docs not show whether the land is cleared or uncleared, wet or dry. He was of opinion that-the Farm Is not the best place that could be selected for a publlc park, a more eligible site would be at the eastern end of the town. Also he thought it would deteriorate Government. House as a residence. Hon. Mr. Palmer believed the ground In question would be a very acceptable boon to the cltlzens of Charlottetown. and Indeed to all who frequent the city, without be- lng any serious infringement on the privileges and comforts of the Lieutenant overnor for the time being. There would be stlll ground enough left for his use and enjoy- ment. At the same time he con- curred In great measure wlth what his honour to the right (Mr, Hay- thornc) had said respecting the eastern end of the town being a more suitable place far a publlc park; but he was not aware that there was a sufficient area of ground In the miirket. at a moder- ute price. llon. Mr. Strong said the Farm belonged to the country at large, and lie dld not thlnk the House would be justified In approprlatlng a portion of IL for the use of the city iilmost exclusively. Hon. Mr. Boll said Charlottetown hnd his frcc consent. to Ilic pro- perty, providing the country Is rial called upon for any part. of the expense of opening up roads In the park rind decorating it. He wiis apprehensive that. it. would be an expensive iiflnir. Hon. Mr. Brilderson supported the blll, but. agreed wlth the last. speak- er that the country should not be ‘Balled upon for any part of the ex- pense. The lnnd Itself was worth from £10,000 to £20,000 and the country will recelve llttle or no benefit. from It. Hon. Mr. Walker recalled that a few years ago a blll of this klnd was Introduced and Governor Dun- do: denounced It very strongly. But he dld not see that It would be any Injury to the Governor's real- dence, nar that there was any place better adapted for a perk for the clty. It could be made a very hand- some place, and there would be no dlfflculty In procuring funds for this purpose. _ Hon. Mr. Palmer sold that as soon as ihe place becomes enjoy- able It wlll be open to all, whether from the city or country. Hon. Mr. Haythorne: “I thlnk people from the country wlll enjoy the park as well as the cltlzens of Charlottetown. They wlll go there to see the horses and carriages and fashions." Hon. Mr. Dlngwell: “Perhaps some of our very handsome young ladies ftom the country will drlve round It and be admired by the In- habitants of the city. I do not Im- agine that the Indies of Charlotte- town wlll eclipse those from the country. 1t may be the moans of Inducing some ol the wealthy gen- tlemen In and around Charlotte- town to take e fancy to some of our handsome young l illes from the country." (‘LIPIEIQI . Hon. Mr. Palmer suggested a pro- vlslon In the blll to empo er the popularity with youngsters. It has become a very rare dessert second only to strawberries! city to sell this ground I a, more obtained. If It were judiciously laid‘ off In building lots for private resi~ denre it would bring fl sum suffi~ clent to purchase a larger area elsewhere. Hon. Mr. Haylhorne: “Unless a publlc park ls very well organized you will find annoyance will arise from all sorts of loose characters who wlll resort to It. I consider that the peculiar attractions of Government House grounds would be better preserved by having the lurid ln question sold for private residences, and that u more eilg- ible site could b0 obtained at the eastern end of the town. There ls a large marsh there which Is now almost useless and whlch Is sus- ceptible of being so Improved as to be fit for a park. There are trccs upon It such us you cannot expect to have on Government House ground for forty years, because when the frees now upon it. are thinned out those which remain will fall down, Moreover, the ele- vatlan on the shore Is very small, and there is no variety of surface. such as would allow it to be laid out. wlth picturesque effect." Hon. Mr. Dodd: "Probably if ll were sold the money would go like what the old biirrack ground was sold for. l believe it sold for £5,000 and I scarcely know what became of It. I would not allow the City Corporation to sell this ground to whom they thought pro- per." Han. Mr. Palmer: "If the ground In question were to be sold there might be restrictions that no part. of It should be used for manu- facturies or for any purpose that would be disagreeable to the occu- pants of Government House. It might be sold for £5,000 or £6,000. and double the quantity of accept- nble ground might be purchased In another place.” Hon. Mr. Bell thought It better to pass the blll as It Is. O O O Hon. Mr. Mulrhead: "After what has been said I would like to know whom the properly belongs to." l-Ion. Mr. Walker: "It ls Crown property." Hon. Mr. Muirhead: "Then what authority Iiave we to pass this blll?" I-lon. Mr. Strong: "As soon as we become part of the Dominion II, will belong to (he Governor Gen- oral, uud It was stipulated. when [he delegates were In Canada. that If the Legislature of the Island would puss a hlll of thls klnd the Dominion Government would as- sent Io ll." Hon. A. A. McDonald: " At- tempts have been made at various tlmcs to obtain u part of this Farm for a park, but they were all un- successful. It was originally grant- ed to the Govornar-ln-Chlef for the use and benefit of the Lieutenant Governor of llllS Island, and for till successors In office. The Governor- In-Chlcf being the party In whose name the deed stands, If he la dls- posed to allow a portion of It to be appropriated for n park for the use of the cltlzens, I do not think It would be advisable to Insert e clause to allow It to be sold for any other purpose.” Hon. Mr. Palmer noted that the blll pl opoees to vest the whole ex- tent of flats adjolnlng thll pro- perty, In the city, without power to appropriate for any other use. However desirable It might be to build‘: publlc wharf there. which would not. Interfere wlth the en- joyment or use of the part, It would riot be allowed. Hon. Mr. Walker: "I do not thlnk any person would be so fool- lsh no to bulld n wharf there at present. and If It. Is considered de- sirable to do so hereafter the not can be amended."
