Mr. Bell brought up the matter of the Unit defaulting on the payment of its bonds and stated it was his understandinz that tho Government had to pay the interest, He said it was his idea iliat bad contracts had been made on the building of the school and that the people in the district did not 85' the contractor thcy wanted. The Leader of the Opposition stated ihih a,conti'actor from the district. was supposed to build the school but the. contract was given to I firm from Charlottetown. "The school cost more than ii should have, I wonder what was wrong." he stated. The Premier replied that the Leader of the Opposition was wrong when he implied that the Government built the school. "That was a matter under the jurisdiction of the triistees." he said. Mr. Bell stated that the contract had been let. to the County (lon- siruction ompany Ltd. and that the people felt they had paid out far too much money, Mr. Clark stated that the iriisteati were too slow last year in getting out their tax assessments with tfne result that the people did not get their assessments until about two months before Christmas.

"They had their own schoclbullt rlilld paid for, than they had to share the burden of buil:liiig a new school. Wiih another school going tip the situation will be defi-iiteiy worse in the future," he stated. He stated that increased taxation was ruling out the benefits of the consolidated school and that he agreed with Dr, Frank MacKinnon that this Province would have to depend upon the one-room school for a long time.

He said it was apparent the House did not know what it want- ed in regard to transportation. After citing the changes that had ing the past three decades he stated, "We want something that will be of use in twenty years time as well as today." In speaking of the Canadian Na- tional Railways scrvice at Bar- den he reieri-ed to a section of the Duncan Commission report of 1926 in which there were stale- menls to the effect "That the pres- enf. car ferry is a much improved service but the service will in- crease” The ieport stated that the ferry was not built for motor traffic. that there had been complaints and that the service was unsatis- factory. It also stated that the railway admitted that I. second boat. was needed. In 1949 ii Duncan Commission report stated that there is the danger of the present ferry be- coming disabled and the threat of a strike. It added that a second ferry was imperative. This name. report also referred in the service at Wood Isldnds. It stated in effect that the service was only operated from the spring to the fall of the year: that storms and heavy winds interrupted the service and that neither of the two boats employed was an ice boat, Transportation Commission .. The Premier referred to the findings of the Royal Commission on Transportation in February 1951. The Province had made a presentation to the Federal Gov- ernment regarding the car ferry service between Borden and Tor- meiitine and the Commission re- ported that "The facts indicati- that the representations made by the Province are undoubtedly wel founded." ' In the brief the lawyers for the Province statnd thiit the position had impmved greatly since the regional hearings of the Commis- sion in Charlottetown and exam- ples of the improvement were (U The "Exorbltant rate charged to trucks had been reduced from 530 per truck to 33 one way and :4 re- turn; (D The second ferry S. 3 Prince Edward Island had been put into operation for the sum- mer months to operate from June 15 to September l5. but the Min- lster of Transport had indicated that if it did not pay its way this might be the end of the operation of the second car ferry during the summer months. The Commlulon reported that it had reached the following con- cliisionii: "(in that the ferry ner- vice has been too ClO5PlV tied to the railway train schedules; (bi that the ferry service is regarded by the. railway administration as a part of the railway service rat- her than its a ti-anportatlon ser- vice to the people of the Province: and fcl that the attitude of the railway with respect. to trucks and biisea including the access -of these latter to the ferry approach- es iind the excessive chiirees made until recently for trucks. is an in- dlcatlon of unsatisfactory condi- tions.” The Commission thin added that since the above paragraph had been written it had received information that the C.N.R. had agreed to remove the pieraiie charges imposed on buses sp- proschlng the fery. Tourist Traffic The Premier stated that the commission also pointed out that the tourist traffic to the Island would be hindered if an stleousti ferry servlcn were not provided. that it new ferry capable of carry- ing autos was needed: and that there appeared to be no dnuhl but that the operation of the nor- aen - Tlormentlne ferry servic- hiid not been satisfactory in tho past Premier Mathemn then stated that briefs had been oroaeiiud to the commission retarding fhv Northumherlami Ferries Limited iind the West Point Peri-lea Limit- ed.

The company receives subsidies through the Canadian Maritime Commission." The Royal Commission the following conclusion on the service: "The main question in- volved ls one of financial assist- ance. There is a body set up to deal with such matters namely the Canadian Maritime Commis- sion. There is no doubt that if the public necessity -and conveni- ence warrant it that body will deal with the respective applica- tions nn the merits of the c'i.5e with due regard to the. cost in- volved. "No spcciific reccmniendation can be made. in the case of the present service being operated be- tween Wood Isliirids and Caribou. Projects of this kind should be considered by the Government of Canada in the light of the great importance of the iioiiitist trade to Prince Edward Island as well as the amount of expenditure in- volved. "The. need for additional facili- ties at the terminal points is NI matter for the consideration of, technical experts in the Depart- ment of Ti-aninort." Test Of Resolution Following is the text of the res- olution under debate in the Leg- islature. as moved by Mr. Saville and seconded by Mr. Thomas R. Culli-n: "Whri'eiui the Iw(T0d Iaiand-Carl- bou service hiis been under the reached management of Nnrthumherland Ferries Limited for the past four- teen years. "And whereas the traffic on this service has increased beyond all expectations. "And whereas the beneficial rates charged for vehicles uslns this service" have resulted in in- creased production and prosperity in depressed areas of Prince Ed- ward Island and with the further result of comparable rates being established on the Borden - Tor- mentlne service which formerly had been prohibitive for truck traffic. part of which results have been a boon to the primary pro- ducers of this province. "And whereas it is now rumored that the Government of Canada is considering the poaibllity of turning over the service to 9 Canadian National Railways. "And whereas. there are many citizens who. while they realise that the Canadian National Rail- wiiys would give. a com! service. still remember the Railway strike of 1950 and the consequent ser- ious interruption of our commu- nication: with the mainland which would have been catastrophic had It not been for the Wood Islands- Osriboii service operated by Pri- vate rkiterprise.

March 25 - Acadia wheat was distributed to Prince Edward Island growers for the first time in 1953. Twenty-four farmers purchased seed and. of these, seventeen replied to ii questionnaire circulated by the Cereal Division at Ottawa. reported yield: varied from a low of l7l:'i bushels per acre to a high of 45 bushels with a general aver- age of almost 32 bushels per acre. For the most part the growers were very enthusastic about the performance of the new variety and there is general agreement that it is the most satisfactory wheat yet distributed in the prov- ince. Acadia is in the medium ma- turing range. the straw la oi medium lonzih and quite strong It has moderate resistance in stem and leaf rust. loose and covered smut. and root mi. The heads are bearded but the grain threshes readilv and lhere is no tendency to srirout in the stock. Although Acadia is not accept- alile for the top milling grade-, several growers have had their wheat ground locally and find the flour riuite satisfactory. There is a my quantity of Acadia soed available from last Wars ilrmvlira and those iptei'esf,- ed in obtaining seed should izel in touch with the Experimental Sta- tion nt Charlottetown.
