The Legislature met yesterday at 11.20 a.m. 4

Mr. MacKinnon presqnud a Petition from l‘. J. lVfacDougald and others for an Act to incor- porate thé motor truck owners and operators of Prince Edward Island. A bill in accordance with the resolution was received and read.

Mr. Seville introduced s bill ti) amend the Game Act.

On motion of Mr. Ramsay the House went. into committee on the following resolution:

"Whereas the Western section oi Prince County is placed at or economic disadvantage compared with the rest of Prince Edward Island owing to the inadequate facilities Jor communication with the adjacent Province o! New Brunswick;

“And whereas the Province of New Brunswick ls the natural and logical market for many o1 the agricultural and fishery products of that section of this Province:

“And whereas the inauguration. of a. ferry service between West Point. Prince Edward Island and Buctouche, New Brunswick. would greatly stimulate agricultural pro duction by providing ready access to nearby markets; would foster increased trade between the two Provinces; would provide a much shortened route for the transpor- tation cf supplies both import and airport; and would promote and encourage the development of a tourist industry in West Prince by providing alternative facilities for entry and departure from the Province; .

“Therefore be it resolved the Legislative Assembly of tlie Prov- liice of Prince Edward Island ask the Government of Canada to provide the necessary dock and harbor facilities at West POlPL and Buctouche to accommodate the ferrlu of the proposed service and to subsidize this ferry on a substantially reasonable basis w as to provide an adequate service."

Mr. Ramsay said he understood llie Maritime Commission is favor- abic to this proposal and they felt that a resolution from the Legis- lature would be helpful.

In secondlng the resolution Mr. Phillips explained that a co-oper- atlve company had been formed. A Federal survey has been madt. at. West Point and this together with cost estimates has gone be- fore the Dominion Government. He stressed the necessity of the service to the farm producers cs- pecially of Western Prince County. Two suitable boats can be. ob- tained within a matter of lisu - They are 176 feet in length. cn _ 52 autos each and are fully equip- ped. The boats have becii used on the freshwater lakes.

' The resolution was strongly supported by Hon. Dr. MacMillan. Hon. Mr. Barbour and Hon. Mr. Wright, and carried llllfllilnwlltl)’

Dr. MacMiilan suggested that the resolution should be forward- ed to all Maritime Senators and members of the House of Com- mons.

of complaint about the date, but of course we were not thinking of a date to elect the Conservative party; we were thinking about ourselves. But. if we had to pick a date to elect the Conservative party thcre WBS not a date on the calendar to suit, DBCUUSC I don't think they could be elected on any date throughout the year. "There sre a. greet many piaccs where the Public Works Depart- nient must spend money. We arc at the mercy of spring and fall rains. the storms of winter and the coastal storms that wash out bridges, and we don't know just how much our expenditures arc going to be from time to time. I think I would have been ihc poorest kind of a Minister of Public Works if. in thc last four years, I had not doubled my es mates-that is during the 51a.» i044. i945 and i946: because Llic Premier and Provincial Secretary were going to Ottawa to arrange a settlement at the Doiniircn- Provincial Conference. For vc-nrs we had spent about $200000 on road maintenance. If they l\F.ll'. up there and asked for 31000.0 nr $300,000 on road work they ivonin say. ‘What do you want that. for; here ls your record of $200010 ex- penditure every year.‘ I think that spending what we did in those years-and which was absolutely necessary-gave them n better chance to get some morc inoncy for this Province,

Many Petitions

‘This year was a fine season. We had more machinery and we had a. great many calls for more road work. I have petitions lawn in the office for $2,000,000 worth of road work that. is not touched. l have had perhaps more delega- tions coming to the office as). in; for their roads to be imp-oved than any Minister had to deal with ln the past.

"I am not ashamed of our paved roads. We have tried to maintain them in es good condition as pos- slble to save that investment. We kept the holes patched as fast as we could and we had a pretty good driving surface on all

".end that we are building better roads than evcr were built. in the past. We are building them more economically, but the cost of ev- erything is high.

"In tho Conscrvativc piutfoivn I note that plan}; number 3 promises to completely revolutionize the road policy of the present Govern- ment. I wonder how many votes that plank lost, for my lion. friends. I venture to say it lost thousands cf votes. I had Conservatives write me, tolling inc that it was all huinbug, that there was ncvcr as good work done on the rcads."

Mr. Bell: "Fixcm Prince County, that would he."
