Mr. R. R. Bell said it was only fitting for theHousetomalsa note of the work done by the late Dr. P.A. Creelman Superintendent of the sanatorlum and director of TB. Control for the Province. . Mr. Bell said Dr. Creelman was wrapped up in his work at the sanatorlum and ventured the opin- ion that "he wore himself out in the service of the Province." He said the Province owed a great deal to the work done by Dr. Creslman in the control of hiber- culoaia which incidence was re- duced from over till to every mono to three per hundred thou- sand. Dr. L.G. Dewar asked the Min- isksr of Health were any renova- tions eonternplated at the Health Centre thh yaar- He understood that acute sxtmsions or alter- ations were to be made to provide for a separate laboratory for tech- nicians dealing with T.B.. research. Dr. Donnell said that such a Province who felt they might have cancer could go to their family physician who, if he thought their fears were founded would refer them to the director of cancer con- trol. He said the program had been instituted to , early discovc y of cancer and thus get early treatment. lie said there were many cases where a patient was sent to a hospital by a doctor who diagnos- ed the trouble as something elss. However when they were in hos- pital for a day or two it was estab- lished that they had cancer. The department. he said refuse to. pay for such cases. On the other hand. he said if a person were sent to the hospital for the express purpose of having a cancer diagnosis made and even toenail, all expenses would be paid for the first three days in hospital.

Opposition Leader Bell asked the Provincial Treasurer where he was going to get the 320.000 per month which he would have to re- pay Ottawa for the overpayment Prime Minister Macmillan said w--- - Macmillan said the desire of a "0 pmv" 9" 9 '5 had been made for this con- tlngency. Mr. MacDonald said it would not be a matter of paying it back since Ottawa would recover the amount from the monthly pay- ments. Premler Matheson inter- jccted to state that the amount withheld by Ottawa would not effect the budget which he said would be more than taken tare of by the floor agreements " ed at the recent Ottawa talks. in addition to the Sl5.6tl5.tl7 there is provision for a "sum suf- ficicnl" to establish the Prince Edward island Frosted Foods Limited. Mr. Bell asked the Premier how high that amount might go.

He urged the Govern- ment to try by every means pos- sible to make tile roads passable. He also stated that many far- mers still had potatoes to haul as well as fertiliser. H.P. Smith. Liberal. Fourth Queens. said a large number of his constltutents had complained to him that they could not travel on snow bound roads. He urged immediate action to clear these roads. Dr. L.G. Dewar. Conservative. second Prince said many rural residents were having difficulty in getting around. not only at the present time but all through the winter. "it seems to me if we are to keep our rural people in the province we must try to improve travelling conditions for them in the winter months. We spend a lot of money on the roads in summer surely we could give more attention to winter condi- tions." he said.

He said most of them had disposed of their horses and sleighs and were almost entirely dependent upon motor traffic. Frank MacNutt said he had re- ceived urgent calls from the fish- ermen of Mount Carmel regard- ing the condition of the roads. These people he said were depend- ing upon the herring fishing for their livelihood and transportation of their product was an absolute necessity. PREMIER REPLIES Premier Matileson who was acting in the absence of lion. George MacKay who is confined to his home through illness. said he was deeply concerned with the plight of the people in the various areas referred to. He said the Department was in a most difficult position. however since all of the machines used in snow fighting during the winter. had to undergo repairs before spring road work could be car- ried on. "One thing seems very obvious and that is if you get the roads cleared now you are not going to have the machines available later on because they cannot be kept in service continually without re- pairs." said the Premier. NOT A SOLUTION Mr. Matheson noted that re- moval of snow from unpaved roads did not necessarily solve the problem since mud would be the next thing to contend with. He said he would aot make any defl- ier. He felt that would be back in his office in a few days at wblcy time every considesati would be given the tier. -R.R. Bell for the second time in as many days asked whether the Rocky Point Ferry was ready to go into operation. The Premier re- run as soon as a captain could be found to run her. Mr. Bell asked whether this was a move on the part of the Gov- ernment to dispense with the ser- vice to which the Premier replied, she will run as soon as a captain is procured. "We have therefore d ' t T the reference in so far as Norman is concerned." said the a eond RCMP report as quoted by Mr. Pearson.

The change becomes effec- tlve during rotation of the force next autumn. Defence Minister Campney. an- nouncing that 4th Canadian infan- try Brigade is to relieve 2nd ,ClB before Christmas. added that the brigade's armored component is to be raised from the present squad- ron strength to a full regiment of armor. including a r nnlssance squadron. The changes, officers said later. will mean nothing to the brigade's over-all strength of about 6.000 all ranks. The heavier proportion of armor will be compensated for by a stream-lining of the other arms. The significance. however, was that the new balance of infantry Io armor extends to the NATO brigade the benefits of an army reorganization earlier this year that saw two infantry battalions disbanded and a third armored regiment organized. That gave the army one armored regiment to every three infantry battalions. CHANGE PROPORTION Dispatch oi the Royal Canadian Dragoons. however. as the unit chosen to enhance the NATO bri- gade's armored punch. will change that infantry-armor proportion in Canada's home-based forces. The 4th CIB, now at Camp Bor- den. 0nt.. has been largely only a headquarters organization. The major units selected to serve in it under Brig. Donald Cameron. 45. of Alexandria. 0nt.. will rep- nescnt Canada from coast to coast. The wtonnaissance squadron to serve with the Dragoons is to be provided lard strathcona's Horse (RC) of Calgary. The brack- the unit's name means Royal Canadians. The infantry units to loin Brig. Cameron's command are the 2nd Sattalion. the Canadian Guards.

The Act defines the latter as a resident of the area who possesses real or personal property to the value of S325. and the wife or husband of such resident provided they are over 21 years of age and have lived in the area to be annexed for six months. Both Premier Matheson. who promoted the Act. and RR. Bell.

Hon. 3. Earle MacDonald and Alex Mclssac. both of whom to say what percentage of the voters named would be acceptable as there was disagreement in many quarters.
