Therapy Treatment

‘bu: educational progr c so far has brought a big increase ln the number of people seeking treat. alant for cancer. In 1946, thera was an increase of 50 per cent over "i6 Previous year and last year again there was e. further increase of 25 per cent, over 194B. This shows that our people are be- coming more cancer conscious and are becoming aware of the fact that early diagnosis of cancer is their only hope. Our educational PPOCIaIn-rne has infiltrated into ovary district of Prince Edward Island and people from Tignish to Souris now kinow more about cancer tlhan they did e. few years ago.‘

"However. we must." do more than ever in the coming year to bring homo to our people that far too many are dying needlessly ~f cancer. We cannot relax our efforts for e. moment as every minutes some Canadian is a. victim of Canada's No, 2 Killer."

“Everybody must help to fight cancer because no one is immune

the dread disease. Large numbers of those doomed to die of cancer in the next 12 months can be saved if their symptoms are reoognimd and treated in their early stages."

Early Treatment

‘Tile major objective of die Cooled‘ n Cancer So ' ‘ is to persuade men and women to seek treatment at the first sign of cancer symptcms without delay. Every citizen oi Prince Edward Island is e. potential victim of cancer and should think seriously about the disease. Our citizens must be lndiuccd to read and heed the warning signals of cancer. Prince Edward Islanders have been moat cooperative so far and we are deeply grateful to them for their contributions and interest."

“We owe a special vote of thanks to the members of the women's In tea throughout the Province as well as to the members of the Prince 'Edward Island Teachers Federation and other bodies."

"The government of Prince lid- ward Island is to be commended for an active interest in cancer control and the grant made to establish Diagnostic Clinics is one of the finest things they have ever done for the Public Health of this Province." '

"We are indebted to the press and radio of this Province for the extraordinary assistance in our educational work. much of which was given without charge."

"I wish to thank each and every citizen or Prince Edward Island who hcs- extended a helping hand in the cruise otcrmcer control and to solicit. ~'your - continued support until we have conquered this great kiiler of our people’

Mr. H. LL Bohaker, Past Secretary road the minutes of the last annual meeting and the Treasurer's report was submitted and adopted. showing a subfitoilltlfll credit balance.

Employment Trend In P. E. I.

Charlottetown officials of the~ National Employment Office re- port that there la a great need for farm labourers. It is believed that if fifty men were available for this type of work, all of them could be placed within a few days. Inquir- 'les are being regularly received about procuring people from the D. P. camps in Germany, and im- migrants from various parts of the British Isles and Europe. .

As an example of the efforts b61118 made by some farmers to ob- tain help. one incident might be cited-dldr. Mark Brazil of John- ston's River. leceived a letter from a. Latvian who had been working in Sweden. Mr. Brazil made ap- plication through thelmrnigration department for this man, and the men arrived in the Province on Thursday night last.

‘Phase who applied .for Dutch formers, asked for single men for the most. part, and three Dutch workers have already arrived. It is undestood that the Premier, J. Walter Jones. is awaiting the er,- rivel of a Dutch farmer and fam- ily. who will be wrlployed by Mr. Jones at his farm in Bunbury.

On Tuesday, dune 1st. a meeting o! the Dominion Provincial Farm Labour Committee, will be held in the Department of Agriculture, to talk over farm labour problems. It. will be attended by officials of the Regional Unemployment Insurance Commission, Moncton; by repre-v sentatlves of Farm Organiza- tions; by local officials of the Na- tional mlployment Office, and representatives of the National Em- ‘ployment. Office in Summer-side. It. is hoped that as a result of this meeting, the methods of pro- curing farm labourers from Europe will be speeded up.

The heavy demand for carpent- ers still continues in Charlotte- town. audit is very doubtful if all vacancies open can be filled. The emphasis is being placed on first- ciass men, although, for certain types of work. men with fairly good experience arc acceptable.

One of the unusual orders re- ceived by the Employment Office this week, was for a commercial air pilot, possessing an instructor's license. This order was placed by a local firm. and is an indica- tion that the development of air transportation is opening up new

Job opportunities, even in the smaller cities. ‘The Department of Veterans’

Affairs, and the National Em- ployment: Office, have been oo- cperattng in a drive to secure jobs for older veterans under the u spices of the Canadian Corps of Commisslonrlaires. These uniform- ea men who not as guides, guards. watchmen, door-keepers, special police, ticket collectors, and in many other capacities, ‘must be rnen of the highest character. Only veterans with meritorious service are enlisted in the Corps. The Corps of Commissionnalres which is a non-profit-rnaking org- anization engages with Govern- ment Departrnerlts, and private employers to furnish uniformed Ccmmissionnaires for the perform- nnce of stated duties. The Corps can furnish men of established in- tegrity for all types of employmen. not requiring undue physical en- deavour, but where intelligence. loyalty and trustworthiness are of prime importance. All applicants for admittance to the Corps are very carefully screened both as to army record and as to their em- pioyment record since leaving the army. It is understood that sev- eral Charlottetown firms have ai- ready taken under consideration the employment of some of these men.
