I was te ed to believe that it W115i it seem that with the very thought oi that strange dark eyed youth my puLses quickened. while the thought of Jonathan brought only a chilling constraint. If I had known where to find him than I think I should have rushed to m; arms of My Stranger and begged him to take me, to let me share with him anything the future might bring—good or ill! I wanted him withthe same kind of an aching that I used to want candy or toys when I was a little girl. The candy and toys were a simple matter. But My Stranger! I had to move quietly along the park walk as if my heart was not beating triple time and my senses longing to recall a man I had cast aside! Inthe living room at home I found Mama. She was alone. Tea was being served. She looked up rather critically as fcame in, it seemed to me. “Your wrap is a bit shabby-isn't it?" she said at length and then I understood the appraising look; L! cl you really haven't any gowns U.

"ma CHARLOTTETOWN GlJARDlAN Taken By Sena The following recommendation respecting cur ferry service between Prince Edward Island and the mainland appears in the report of the special Senate committee 0n Tourist Traffic-and i: significant as being the only reference to a particular Province in the whole report: “Serious in its effects on tourist travel is the incidence of ferry rates. particularly those on motor cars. This was impressed upon the Com- mittee; cnd the case of the Prince Edward Island carferry rates on motor vehiclm was urged as an example. Smallest of all the Prov- inces. Prince Edward Island is the one Province of Canada that must be reached across water, and it is not difllcult to appreciate the im- portance 01 this matter as affect- ing that part fo the Dominion. I Moreover, as was pointed out, it is in the essence of the Canadian partnership that ferry rates and services to and from that Prov- ince should be such as to relieve it. insofar as possible, of the disad- vantages of its island position; and anything short of this makes for insularity. “Similarly, and viewing the Can- adian situation as a whole. it is axiomatic that the greatest pos- sible faclllty should be afforded the movement of motor cars by ferry and otherwise, since the motor car plays such an enormous part in tourist travel today." The Senate committee opened its sittings at Ottawa on May 2 under the chairmanship o! senator Den- nis. of Halifax, Prince Edward Is- land's representative on the com- mittee belng Senator MacArthur. Its report was submitted to the Senate on May 22, and was adopted unanimously. In addition to many witnesses who were heard. briefs were presented and considered by the committee, including one from Prince Edward Island, prepared by Premier MacMllla-n and Mr. Justice Arsenault. president of the Tourist Association. In addition to present- ing this brief. Senator MacArthur, verbally and in a written communi- cation to the chairman, supported the arguments advanced for consideration of the claims of this Province as a. tourist centre. Extracts from the evidence be- fore the committee of special inter- est to Island readers appeared re- cently in The Guardian. The fol- lowing additional extracts are from reports of subsequent sittings: Auto Ferry Rate: Mr. T. Ft. Enderby, general man- ager, Canada Steamship Lines, Lim- ited, in the course of his evidence before the committee on May l6, was questioned by Senator MacAr- thur regarding the carrying of automobiles on his company's boats.

Q-What is the distance? A—-Forty miles. Q-What is the rats for auto- mobiles? A-The rate is $2.50. There have been very substantial reductions made in those rates, and credits are given to the occupants of the car. Q-qou have not any steamers on short runs. say. of ten miles? A—N0. Q—W'hat do you think the rate should be on a. ten-mile trip? A—-Possibly twenty-five cents. Q-For a ten-mile ferry crossing? A-Yes. It all depends on how many passengers accompany the car. Q-The passengers, would pay their fares. A-Yes; but our policy, Senator, is to give a discount on the rate for the car in proportion to the num- ber of passengers travelling with it. Q-You give the motorist a lower rate on his car to increase your passenger traffic? A-Yes. The car does not cost anything except to put it aboard and put it ofl. q-Fbr the ferry crossing between ‘rormentine and Borden, nine miles, the automobile rate is $4.00. A—That discourages tourist traf- fic. We have to make our rates so the motorist will look at the rate for the automobile and figure out what it will cost him to drive, if he can drive. Q-‘Phe low automobile rate will encourage passenger traffic? A—Yes. We have to put it to him in such a way that he will place his car aboard the boat and pay the rate rather than travel by road. Q-Would you say that a. $4 charge is pretty excessive for a nine- mile run? A-—I should think it would be a detriment to tourist traffic. Q-Especially when the ferry is Government-owned and operated? A-I was not viewing it from that point; but the automobile man can travel a long way nowadays on of course, Q-Rather than pay a high ferry rate for his automobile he will keep on the road? A-Yes, if there are alternative trips, a $4 or $5 charge for an auto- mobile woud be a. distinct deterrent to that movement. Q-I agree with you. Q—I think you said that from Toronto across the lake to Niagara Falls is about forty miles and the automobile rate is $2.50. A—Yes. If with the automobile there is one man he pays $2.50; if of 25 per cent on his automobile fare. Q—I notice that on some of the St. Lawrence River ferry crossings, for instance, that between Kings- ton and Clayton-which is consid- land Strait crossing-there is no retum charge for the automobile if the owner comes back on the same day. A-We do not do that. sir. Radio Commission Broadcasts Mr. Hector Charlesworth, chair- man of the Canadian Radio Broad- casting Commission. outlined to the committee the nature of the Com- mission's broadcasts dramatizing facts of interest .11 connection with each Province. “We expect.” he said. “this Pmgram will continue through the summer. We are considering deal- ing with certain things that are happening this y'ear—the Toronto Centennial; the Tercentenary fes- tlvitles at Three Rivers; the big- gest thing that is going to happen in Canada. the four hundredth an- niversary of the arrival of Jacques Cartier at Gaspc. Tonight, May 17. if I mistake not. Manitoba is being dealt with in that way; next week we deal with New Bnmswick; then with Alberta; then we take part of Ontario, and then we deal with something in connection with Que- bec. Then on June 28-" The Chairman: "You are not pas- sing over Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia?" Mr. Chariesworth: “No, Nova Sco- tia is on the list, and in fact one of our earliest broadcasts of this series, last winter, dealt with Prince Edward Island. which has a most interesting history. That was vvide- ly applauded. On July 12-1 don't know whether it is a suitable date or not-we are going to broadcast the Jacques Cartier celebration." Senator MacArthur: "What was the feature in regard to Prince Ed- ‘ _. ward Island on that occasion?" Mr. Charlcsworth: ‘I cannot tel! you." Senator MacArthur: “What was it in connection with?" Mr. Charlesworth: “They brought in the fox farms and something of the early history oi the province. I _d!dn‘t happen to hear it myself-I have a. great many other things to attend to-but I got some telegrams of congratflation about that par- ticular broadcesl. We are goinz to touch on the Yukon; we are going to be back on Prince Edward Island again, and we are going to deal with Nova Scotia August 2. That date may be changed.

Mr. Parker: "We have frequent- ly given thought to it. I have itin- eraries in my files now covering a trip to Prince Edward Island. The trouble is that the cruise there adds too many days. We have to make these cruises run longer than three or four days. This summer we arc operating a tour from New York to Yer-mouth and Saint John on the S. S. Acadia.

And if the Si. Peter's canal were deepened, ‘big ships would be cruising up through thc lakes there. Q-You spoke about traffic to and from Prince Edward Island. I do not remember any excursion recs during the last year. A--We had an Eastern excursion to and from Prince Edward Island via our Boston-Saint John line. The sail I thifik took place two or three days before Easter and the periods were for fourteen days. that people are interested in the e a a g o I Sponsored is e. possibility that we will operate an eight or ten-day excursion in July. Q-Via Saint John? A-Yes. Q—-We have more Prince Edward Islanders in the New Ehuziand States than we have on the Island. A-Ycs. so I believe. Q-They and their neighbours and friends come with them to the Island on visit. What we would like. of course, is a more reasonable period for return. A—We give a longer period than those $12 excursions give; we give from ten to twelve days, scmctimcs fourteen days. Q—-I would not presume to tell you how to run your business.

In making a report I believe il will easily be a unanimous one. el- tliough there might be some differ- ences of opinion respecting the best manner of reaching our objective. 1 It is generally conceded that the Dominion Government will be asked to establish a Federal Bureau. 2 I have an open mind on the question of whether the publicity from the Bureau should have the imprimatur o1 the Government or not. _ - 3 The object of this newly form- ed Bureau should be to oo-operatl with thc existing Governmental DI- partments. tourist associations and other media, having in view sgreat- that the co-operaticn of these sev- eral agencies will be of such a character that it will make ‘for thc prevent much waste of money and energy.
