CHARLOTTETOWN Steady Increase In ferry Traffic A Via Vloodlslands The steady increase in traffic via the Wood Islands route is clearly demonstrated by the in- crease shown in August of this year compared to the figures for the same monthcf 1950. August of last year was the month when the Northumberland Ferries L141. were called on to bear rthe traffic brunt of the railway strike. During August of this year the service carried 21,238 passengers, 5.559 autos and 911 trucks. This compares favorably with the 21,042 passengers, 5,323 autos and 998 trucks transported in the same month of 1950. Despite the slight decrease of 87 trucks. there was an increase of 230 autos and 196 pas- sengers. since the Northumberland Fer- ries rcncwcd their service on May 1 of this year they have handled 55.674 passengers, l-1,479 autos and 3,248 trucks. These figures can be compared to those for the same period last year when there were 51,745 passengers. 13,358 autos and 3.281 trucks moved between Wood Islands and Caribou. These latter figures represent an increase in passengers of 3.929 and 1.121 autos while showing a slight decrease of 13 trucks. ADOPTION Continued from page 1 Western section of the Island is either negligible or inadequate "And whereas increased elect- ricity is required to operate prop- erly the West Prince Hospital of- Alherton and would be a great ben- efit in improving conditions in rural communities "Therefore be it resolved that the Maritime Electric Company bc urged to extend rural electrifica- tion to this area as soon as poss- ible. Sterling Pensions "Whereas due to the devaluation of the pound sterling. the rate of exchange from Sterling to Dollars is new small. "And whereas the cost of living has risen to such a. high level and pensioners on Sterling Pensions are present pensions, "Therefore be it resolved that action be taken by either the Can- adian Government or the Imperial Government concerned to either increase Sterling Pensions or to grant a more favourable rate of Exchange to Imperial Pensioners." A resolution adopted at last year's convention was reaffirmed. recommending an amendment to the Pensions Act to the effect that pension applicants be given the right to appeal decisions of the Canadian Pensions Commis- sion and of the Appeal Board to the proper courts of the land. Among other resolutions adopt- ed was one expressing pleasure at the announcement of the impend- ing visit to Canada. and Prince Ed- ward Island of Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh. Heavy Influx Of Pupils Expected The opening of city schools and Prince of Wales College this morn- ing will probably bring one of the largest enrollments in history. The city schools, Queen Square, Roch- ford Square, West Kent; and Prince Street are expecting to meet a heavy lnflu of pupils with the probability mat double classes will have to be established in several grades. In Prince of Wales College it is difficult to tell as yet what. the en- rollment will be, but it is believed the teacher training class this year may be slightly smaller than last year. Throughout the Province gener- ally the situation regarding .the supply of teachers is better than for several years post. Inspectors report their schools well filled and though there will be some teaching under the permit system the number of permit teachers will be noticeably smaller this year. It is not known as yet how many dis- tricts there are where the number of pupils is so low as to require transfer to another district or the use of correspondence courses. There are several new schools under construction at present on the Island. but the exact number was not known last night. IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of'Mra.

As an engineer Scotty worked with a demolition squad blowing up equipment that the retreating forces left behind them. Most of the time the Chinese were right behind the engineers. "I was very lucky." he stated, ”as all I received was a broken wrist and some frost bites." Here he briefly told bout. the bitter cold and the su fering which the fighting men endured. Following the evacuation from I-fungnam, Scotty and his battal- lion were taken back to South Korea where they lined up once more against the enemy and suc- cccded in stopping the Reds at Wonju.

This means that Charlottetown must have be- tween 500-000 donors at the Clinics to be held this afternoon gnd evening and tomorrow morning and evening if the Province is to,have a sufficient amount of blood to meet the needs of pati- ents in our hospitals during the civilian defence. The residents of Charlottetown and vicinity have always been noted for their splendid support of these Red Cross Blood Donor Clinics and Red Cross officials were optimistic last night that they would again come to the rescue and try to make up for the deficit caused by the centres which did not reach their objec- tives. lt is to be hoped that as many as possible will attend this afternoon's and tomorrow morn- ing's clinics so that the evening clinics will be left for those who cannot possibly be there except in the evening. In this way there should not be so much waiting for anyone and donors need not spend any longer than a half hour getting through. 80LEMNyy0yEIlEMONY Continued from page 1 A.

"During the past three years our Summerside comrades have lived in very modest circumstances and during that time have been working and planning a Legion home worthy of their fine town. Today we see the results of their endeavours. From 'modest cir- cumsts.nce.s' they have risen to 'luxurlous surroundings! "Each and every one of us are proud of what. they have done and extend to Comrade Cannon and members of his branch our heart- iest congratulations on their ef- forts and our best wishes for their future success.
