Z0. 1948 Winter Fairs The Government chartered plane trip by a number of our leading livestock producers and their wives to the Royal Winter Fair will doubt- less be the forerunner of numerous excursions of this kind, which should prove of far-reach- ing benefit in improving quality production in this Province. Already we have an enviable reputa- tion in this respect, but to keep abreast of what other sections of Canada are doing our breed- ers must have the opportunity of availing them- selves of the unexcelled facilities which a na- tional exhibition such as the Royal Fair provides. Next year perhapsiit will be possible to have two or three planes chartered for this purpose. The rough weather encountered on this week's flight between Montreal and Toronto was an un- fortunate exception to the generally prevailing conditions, and will certainly not deter our farm- ers from participating further in this new and expeditious method of transport, Through closer contact with what the rest of Canada is doing in livestock improvement, our formers will not only become more air conscious, but also more ambitious of success in this di- rection. Their outstanding achievements at the recent Maritime Winter Fair at Amherst would doubtless have been greater still had they entered in the Holstein classes, for which we are noted in- ternationally. Perhaps theinducement in the way of prize money was not sufficient to attract more of our successful breeders. ln any case, the prestige enjoyed by Prince Edward Island as the leading agricultural and livestock producing Province of the Maritimes would seem to entitle us to having our own Winter Fair. Money ex- pended in a project of this kind, on a scale large enough to make it an inducement to outstand- ing Maritime exhibitors in all classes, would be an investment well worth while. i Education And Finances Two cramping factors obstructing the ex- pansionof educational facilities, particularly in the less wealthy Provinces, are emphasized editorially by the Sydney Post-Record. One is the failure of the municipal governments to grasp the predominant importance of education as compared with any other branch of public service, and to budget for it accordingly. The other is the inadequacy of the Provincial rev- anues, present or prospective, to finance public instruction on a sufficiently generous scale to provide enough school accommodation to meet the rising needs of the times, and to make the teaching profession attractive enough to keep its ranks fillcxl with scholarly men and women, capable of raising the standards of instruc- tion to new and constantly rising levels of ef- ficiencv. This means of course that the educational problem is essentially a financial problem. Such being the case the need of bigger and better schools, adequately paid teachers, modern equip- ment in abundance for scientific research and instruction, all locking toward decent standards in keeping with the times, presents Canadian ltatesmanship of all government levels with a challenge which cannot safely be ignored. Even in the United States, the inability of local administrations to finance education pro- perly is becoming very generally recognized, as well as the fact that the national government must supplement the municipal and state ef- forts, if the citizenship of the country is not to be allowed to deteriorate. Speaking for New York, the wealthiest municipality in the world, the New York Times says: "Here in New York, as elsewhere, municipal government is struggling with a budgetary problem, made worse by the astronomical cost of construction which, in the case of school building has risen well over 100 per cent from pro-war costs." Continuing, The Times goes on to assert: "The prospect faced in the years immediate- ly ahead creates a responsibility that cannot be wholly trusted, in all cases, to the local level of government. It calls for a searching and con- scientious reappraisal by federal and state gov- ernments. The costly extension of roads, water lines and other services to new housing develop- ments, together with the burdensome effect of inflation cn municipal houskeeping, has already produced an anxious strain on local governments. lf, as Dr. Jansen says, we are 'deeply concerned with the character, success and happiness of our children,’ and determined to develop in them 'a passionate and intelligent devotion to our Ameri- can way of life,’ we must see to it, on levels of government where there be no question of wide effectiveness, that we supply adquote school plant and trained teaching staff.” The need of Federal aid to education is more pressing in Canada than it can possibly be in the United States; for in this country our Provincial jurisdictions have more meagre rev- enue sources than are available to the states of the American federation, and our municipali- ties are not comparable in size or wealth with those across the border. Dominion assistance to education is certain to come at some time, from sheer inevitable necessity. "This" argues the Post-Record, "is a lino of public policy which might well find a place at the next Dominica election in the programme of Hon. George Drew, the Progressive Conservative leader, who has been Ontario's Minister of Education for 5 years, and in that capacity has extended Provincial aid for the construction of schools and the bet- terment of teachers’ salaries, on a scale never tUllURlAl.

A’ ‘K fl I This concludes Education Week: Teacher— "Freddie, your essay on ‘My Mother’ is exactly the some as your brother's, word for word." Freddie —"Yes, sir. We have the same mother.” U ¥ U U Canada abstained from voting in Paris on four articles of the U. N. Social Committee's draft declaration on human rights. The reason was not that she was opposed to the measures but that they dealt with matters which fall within Provincial jurisdiction. The principle would cause a serious gap in our international relations. The Provinces do not negotiate treat- ies and the Dominion is told that it can't. A k i w ‘ Even beavers are becoming war-minded. A bunch of Canadians built a dam for the army near Churchill, Man., sub-Arctic winter experi- mental base and didn't even get trades pay. When a group of engineers was sent to nearby Fornsworth Lake to prepare a seaplane base, it found the work virtually done. Beavers had built a dam just where it was needed. The engineers promptly adopted their*col*ony. A‘ The index number for prices of farm pro- ducts at the farm in Canada rose to 256 in August. It was 231 in March, 205 in August, 1947, and since 1939 when it averaged 91.8, it has risen by years as follows: 1940-5 points; l94l—l3.4, 1942-229, l943—24.7, l944— 14.5, 1945-85, l946—ll.8- 1947-112, and January to August, l948—Z4.4. Amherst will call for tenders on bond issues of $280,000, covering expenditures on the new hotel, the housing project and major civic im- provements, including street pavement and sewer and water extensions. The bond issues are: Streets, $80,000; hotel, $80,000; sewers, $10,000; fire services, $11,000; traffic lights, $5,000; civic building, $5,000; schools, 56-000; water, $42,000. Housing bonds, water lines, new area, $15,000; sewer extensions, $12,000; land for housing $3,200; streets, $5,800. ¥ 5% ¥ I The president of the New Brunswick Fruit Growers’ Association, Mr. Robert S. Graham, Prince William, advises members of the associa- tion to plant earlier varieties of apples in the hope of counteracting the imparting of these varieties from British Columbia and Nova Sco- tia. The president explained that to the pres- ent time, overplanting of the Mclntosh variety has resulted in its making well over two-thirds of the province's entire crop. As a result of the earlier varieties imported from outside sources have swamped the local market. . Ir s An inquirer wants to know what was meant in a recent Ottawa despatch when it stated "that the Government would revert to the customary procedure in the appointment of Senators which ex-Prime Minister King was said to have scrap- pcdl This may be doubted. The procedure since Confederation has been this: When a vacancy in the Senate occurs, the elected representatives for the Province are consulted. lf they agree their nomination is accepted. lf they disagree, the Senators for the Province are polled. lf the ma- jority of Members and Senators favour a nom- inee, he is accepted by the Prime Minister. ln the event of disagreement, the Provincial Gov- ernment, if in line with the Party in power, is consulted, and their advice finally taken. James Bruce, eighth cclr of Elgin, Govern- or-General of British North America, diecl this date 1B63.While the Eorlwus Governor of Ja- maica, Earl Greydecided on giving British North America (namely Ontario and Quebec) the prin- ciple of responsible government as recommend- ed by Lord Durham, and appointed him to put the principle into effect, which he successfully did through many obstacles and set backs. During his regime four ministries held power, all of which he mode toe the line of demo- cratic administration. They were the Draper-Vig- er, the Baldwin-Lafontaine, the Hicks-Morin, hnd the MacNab-Moris. To these advisers he gave "all constitutional support," in the face at times of personal attacks on himself and in the burn- ing of the parliament buildings at Montreal. Through his firmness and patience the triumph of "responsible government" was assured. I if ‘A i This is a reminder to Scouters and Scout Committees which was given by the Chief Scout Lord Rowallen when here last year and repeated elsewhere in Canada. It is an extract from the current issue of The Scout Loader: He said: "Scoutmasters often get the tendency to de- vote too much time to their Troops and for too little time to outside social life. Take your wife to the picture show or dancing. Often a Scout- master is doing as great a service by playing a game of bridge as he is by attending every Troop meeting. lf you unlit yourselves socially, you cannot lead young men into the community life of which you have no part." it is well for Scouters to remind themselves occasionally of this warning. Service to the Scout Movement may best be fostered by those who appreciate all that is to be extracted from the community way of life, from the warmth of the family cir- ltnown heretofore in any Province of the Domin- lon.”_ ‘ q I clo, and from associations which broaden the outlook and enliven the mind. flflilE _ CKIARLOTTETOWN _ THE END OF EDUCATION WEEK f-"T " - Notes By ken.

This is not only the shortest. route. but ii, is more free of snow, and therefore much travelled when kcpi. in good condition. The widening of the road in last. August when the bulldozer tore out the hedges and trees, was to be expected. but not the leav- ing of heaps of clay and refuse In front of premises ever since. Nor was it expected that ornam- entalnrees inside the staked line ivould be cut down and the road left. ln such a condition that cars cannot meet without one stop- ping to lcl. the other pass. As one traveller said, "this makes ii impossible for the snow- plrnv to get through in the winter. but, this may be intentional."

Nov. 19. SAFEGUARDING POTATO INDUSTRY Si: - I would like to express my approval of the general enter- prise descrlbed ln The Guardian's news columns, lntlmatlng that. "one of the most modern frost- proof potato warehouses ever to be built. ln the Marltlmes ls now under construction on the north side of l-Illlsboro Bridge and when completed will hold between 70 and 80 cars of potatoes." I; is obvious to this urban Cane- lan that. one of the weak links ln your great potato industry ls a blend between the comparative perlsheblllty of the product, and the lack of attention (on the part. of the authorities) to Industrial possibilities — l.e.. the finding of new uses for this vital raw mat- erlal. As you probably know better than this reader. a 5 or 10 per cent purely temporary our-supply, in any of the perishable farm com- modities, does disastrous things to the prlce structure of the entire industry. I an not unduly pro- testing against the fact itself. be- cause the law of suupply and de- mand ls not to be denied operat- ing over the long term. What. I have ln mind, ls that. it is up to the organised primary producers (lf, indeed. they are organized) to emulate as fa: as possible the efforts of other industries. in the direction of control of the supply. The originating impulse behind finding new uses for old products is not necessarily greed far more often. lg, is dedicated to the social and equitable desire of prlce stability. Unfortunately. in the prewnl state of the hungry world. there ls an understandable hesltancy to use the laboratory for the aim of industrlallzlng commodities like grain. potatoes, etc., into inedible products. Still more unfortunately. far boo many people in the market- place lrate and fear the principle of "price stability," for the reason that. their profit-margins are llnk- ed to price movements. There seems to be no good reason why the interests of the growers cannot be protected against. abundance. and those of the consumers safeglll-Pfi- ea against scarcity. 1 am. Sir. etc, W. P.
