THE GUARDIAN. Gordon Discusses Railway llrobleln MONTREAL. April 3 -tCP)- Competition between highway transportation and railways is the "major national transportation problem of this decade," Donald Gordon. president of the Canadian National Railways. said today in a Ipeech prepared for delivery to the Canadian club. Because inter-provincial high- way transportatlon comes within provincial jurisdiction. the Royal Fem ' ' on Transportation did not directly explore the problem of road-rail competition, Mr. Gor- don said. He earnestly hoped that "the range of public discussion stimulated by the report will be broadened to take account of the very important facts which lay outside the Lunar lsslon's terms of reference." From the standpoint of the public as a whole. the railway president said. it does not matter whether Canada's freight is car- ricd by railroads or highways car- riers-"provlded shippers get the service they want at the lowest possible cost to themselves and to the public. and provided that the requirements of national de- fence are obtained at the mini- mum cost." He reminded his audience. how- ever. that "Canadian railways are performing a physicial job of transportation which highway carriers could not possibly duplic- ate. carrying something like 150.- 000,000 tons of freight annually at an average rate per ton-mile of less than 1 t-2 cents-at which level no truckers in North America could survive." Mr. Gordon said he thought it might be assumed that "the rail- way problem" centres around "freight rates and in particular the question of equalizing freight rates across Canada. but, in his opinion. this was only another aspect of the greater problem. "The existing inequality in regional ratc levels is in large measure the consequence of a dif- ficult series of problems arising out of competition between rail- ways and highway freight car- riers." he said. "Faced, with local- ized competition from truckers. particularly in central Canada where competitive influences are highly concentrated. the railways have had to cut rates on the most valuable traffic. inevitably this has meant that other traffic and other areas. have been affect- ed by efforts to recoup the loss in net revenues.” The Canadian National manage- ment is ready to recognize the technical advantages inherent in motor vehlclecarriers and to make use of them in providing combin- ed rail and highway services for the greater convenience of the public. Mr. Gordon said. however. proposals in this direction had been frustrated by the refusal of competent authorities to license railway-owned bus or truck ser- vices. .....:.-.?-:- IIIGIIFIELD W. I.

April 2 -(AP) - A revolving drum poured out small fortunes to ticket holders today in the richest drawing ever held by the Irish hospital sweepstakes. Every ticket drawn today means money to its holder. But the winners of the i50.000 (S140.- 000) first Prizes won't be determ- ined until sat.urday's Grand Nat- ional steeplechase, the race on which the drawings are based. In addition to the first place prizes. the second place horse in the 4 1-2 mile race at Aintree, England, will pay its ticket hold- ers 536.000. TI1II'd place ticket holders will get 828.000. The Irish Hospital Trust-which operates the sweepstakes-doubled the value of the prizes this year to make them more inviting in these times of high living costs. The total amount of prize money is expected to approach &'i.23l.3M. There will be prizes of about 51.000 each for all holding tickets on horses finishing out of the money. including those horses that were accepted but later scratched.

British Columbia initiated a plan of hos- pitalization and health insurance. The Province charges premiums and pays benefits. The Province stipulated that no private plan could continue in existence, ex- cept it be supplemental to the state plan. unless it gave all the benefits which the state plan pro- vided at the same rate of prem- ium. No private insurer could give the benefits provided by the Province. because a private insur- er has no access to taxation as I means of providing for deficits in the operation of the plan - and such deficits quickly arose and premiums have been increas- ed twice already by the Province. "A further deficit of several million dollars has just been re- ported for i950. Therefore, the men and women in my own com- pany. who were protected by It company plan with which they were well satisfied and which they wished to continue. were forced to adopt the state plan and forego that which they had To that extent they lost their freedom of decision."

The closure order was issued by the Catholic School Board and the 800 students of the two schools were marched to the public school board office, turning their education over to local authorities. Separate schools in British Col- umbia operate without govern- ment grants and for many years have sought to have the Depart- ment of Education contribute to their operation. A committee of the joint Catho- lic school boards of Our Lady of Lourdes and Our Lady of Fatima schools advised Education Minis- ter W. T. Siraith of the closing order. It said the order had been is- sued "in view of the grave injus- tices and penalties placed on our schools." The committee also said the Department of Educa- tion had shown an "evasive at- titude towards our claims." NORTH MILTON W. I.
