In addition to the usual quart- erly meetings there have been four special General Meetings of the Board and twelve Council Meet- ings held during the year. all of which Council Meetings have been held by various sub-committees of the Board. and it has been neces- sary and advisable for special dele- gations to wait upon our govern- mental bodies from time to time. In that regard if. may be stated that our delegations have always been most courteously received on all such occasions and that in the majority of cases the objectives urged bv these delegations have been obtained. In some instances. however. the results still await completion and it will be neces- sary for the ln-coming Council and officers to continue their ef- forts towards the fulfillment of ob- iectives not yet completed. In par- ticular our relations with the Pre- mler of the Province end the Mayor of the City throughout the vcar have been most cordial, and I wish to thank both of these r-tentlemen for courtesles extended during my term of office. “Apart from the usual Business meetings your Board was very released to spend an evening list- Pnlm! to an address from Mr. G. L. Eaton, Supervisor of Farm l1- lnstration Stations for the Prov- irce of Prince Edward Island up- on the subject of Farm Rehabilita- tion. alter which address there was e very interesting discussion upon thr- subject matter in hand. in which part was taken by officials of the Aizrlcultural Department of our Government. and by certain farmers as well an by several Char- lottetown business men who had been born and brmlght up on farms.

At the present time we have under careful consideration and stud)’ a very lengthy nlemornndum upon the subject of the control of motor vehicle transportation which prepared by the manager 0i’ was the Maritime ‘Transportation Com- mission and submitted to the Boards of Trade of the three iviarl- time provinces for their considera- tion. _ Harbour Inprovements “During the month of April all of our members were delighted to learn of the announcement, of the Federal Government that 8359.000 was to be spent on improvements in Charlotteiovm Harbour. of which 3150.000 was to be spent in the year 1939. This was an objcct for which the (iharloticimvn Board had been working con- tinously for a. number oi years. It was rather disappointing that developments did not get under- way during the past summer but we are rfeased to observe that the contract has recently been award- ed and to be assured that the work will be undertaken early next summer. “One m’ the objects for which our Board has been striving riur- ing the past few years has been the establishment of the Wood- Isiands-Caribovi Ferry Scrvicc. and for the assurance that. rcasoitnble rates would be established upon such route for automobile truck traffic. Certain obstacles have arisen from time to time and it was necessary for our Board to act tributed gifts and candy to they pupils and teacher from 5 prcttlly, decorated and well laden Christmvs tree. A hearty vote of thanks was tendered to the teacher by Mr. Courtnev MacKay. 'I'ho singing of the National An- them brought the entertainment to e close. i strongly on ccrtain occasions to overcome certain of these obslaccs. and to gain assurance that the service would be established vqitllln a reasonable time, and that when established it would be the type of service which would be in the best interests of the people of ihis province. We are very pleased that the outcome has been that the ferry will be operated by a Prince Edward Island Company arid we may say that we may rest assured that on efficient service '\\'li be conducted at fair and reasonable rates commencing about 1st May ._. "As the report of our Committee on Air Transportation will show we have been striving continuously for several months to obtain the same mileage pasenscr raics on the Chaxlottetown-Summcrsidc- Monc- ton air route as prevail in the six Canadian provinces which cnloy Trans-Canada service. Having learned recently that there ans a. strong possibility that the excel- lent air mail and passenger service which we have been enjoying for the past eleven years might be cancelled at any time, your Board officials immediately joined forces with our Provincial Government officials to make sure that noth- ing of this nature would happen. and while the final outcome is not yet definitely known it is believed that our efforts in this regard will prove successful, and that we may look forward {h the immediate fu- ture to a more extensive air trans- portation service than a more re- stricted one. Road Paving "Among the matters with vmich your Board cooperated with the Mayor and City Council acre those concerning the proposed paving of reasonably direct routes from the Capital City to the proposed Ferry tenninal at Wood Islands. and the Car Ferry terminal at Borden. In the case of the Wood Ihlfillds route your Board arranged for a joint delegation. representing the City Council, city mcrchaxits, and the Board of 'l‘i'ade to wait upon the Provincial Government to pre- sent their views. As a result of tho efforts 0f this dclccation the Gov- ernment has arvnnccll for the pav- ing of such a route. Strong recom- mendations were also made to the Provincial Government by this Board and the City Council rc- gardlng the paving of a proposed direct route from t-hc Capital Ciiv i0 the Ferny Terminal at.

Hyndman, Chairman of the Har- carcfuflv ‘ ibour Impiovemcnt Gemini-tee: "Your Harbour Improvement Committee is very gratified to be labia to report substantial progress touring the past year. The agl.......l for improvements at the Port oi Charlottetown snarled in the year ‘i926, during the sitting oi the Dun- can Commission in this City, with illie result that the Duncan Report [brought in recommendations for an muucdiabe survey oi the Port. and for the supplying oi needed dock- ing faculties. Owing to the depres- sion Lhat followed shortly after. no‘. very much effort was made for several years, until i934, when ihe lagustion was renewed. requesting that the Duncan recommendations be carried out in this respect. "The Board of Trade has persis- tently followed the matter up, in co-opcration with our Federal members, and as a result, a Hydro- graphic Survey was undertaken in i935 by the Hydrographlc Service of the Federal Department of Mines and Resources. The Survey was completed in 1937. New charts for both inside and outside the Harbour became available in i937- 38. This Survey and the new charts avallabie resulted m clear- ing up a misconception that had. existed for many years, and shows that we have sufficient water, not less than thirty-eight feet at low ildc. which will accommodate the largest class oi ships that desire to come to this Port, While we had axiticipaicd that the providing of the much needed improved docking facilities would have been under construction during 1939, your Committee was disappointed in this regard, but it is now a veiy . great satisfaction to know that a ‘contract has recently been let for wile enlarging of the Railway lwharf during 1940, and for provid- ling much greater depth of wafer at this pier, so that the larger class of vessels can dock without difficulty. Behind In Port Facilities i "While Prince Edward Island has made considerable progres during the past few years in transporta- tion by rail and ferry, and in high- way transport, we have lagged far behind in the march of progress as regards port facilities. As we have slated on previous occasions, we be- iieve this Port has a bright future, when adequate and modern facili- ties are provided. and that fact be- comes known to the shipping world. A busy water-front will bring much prosperity to our City and Province. as well as providing greatly increas- ed employment to the longshore- men. The hearty co-operation of producers, shippers and longshore- men is essential, however, if this Port is to grow and develop. and it must become popularly known as a Port where adequate facili- ties and. good service prevail, as well as reasonable handling char- gcs, if we are to attract business. This Port, unfortunately, has been more or less on the black list. owing to the misconception as regards depth of water at the entrance oi’ ilic Port, as well as lack of proper docking facilities at the Port. It takes a long time. usually. to cor- rect, false impressions or wrong in- formation that exist after necessary changes or improvements have been made. It will, therefore. require the urgent cooperation of all inter- ests in broadcasting these improve- ments. if we are to reap the behe- fils that mould follow the recon- struction of the Railway Pier. Op- portunities should open up for reaching new markets by water, for farm and manufactured products, as well as making it possible for large tourist cruisers to call at the Port. With our fine hotel accom- modation, good roads, National Park and modern docking facili- ties. Prince Edward Island will have more opportunity to get in step ‘with the general prosperity of the Dominion. ‘ A Ind light "Ithaebeeneherdflditkirlhr- _.bour Improvements. over e long period of years. which seems to be the case with all improvements in- troduced in our Province.

Among oth- er things it was found that the charge for passenger" transport over the Trans-Canada System was oonddcrably less than that which we were paying for the In- ter-Provdncial air link between Charlottetown. Summerside and Moncton. Upon representation to the proper authorities, we received the assurance of Mr C. A.
