Island Odds I And Ends

More and more the Town of Souris is assuming greater im- portance as a provincial business centre. especially in relation to the fishing industry.

l.n recognition of the towns pos- sibilities. its port facilities are to be impioved by the Dominion Government to the extent of al- most one million dollars. Ambiti- ous plans have been discussed for some months to capitalize on Sour.is' close proximity to one of the finest fishing grounds in the world. and it could well be that our Federal Govenurient is well aware of the wealth that lies off our shores. a icw miles from Souris.

It is altogether likely too that defence authorities see the value of Souris harbour as a re-viciual- ing point for suvbmarine craft in the event of war. Tra.ffic through the Gulf of St. Lawrence could very well be protected by small yhlrps based on Sourls.

It is understood that the close. io a million dollar outlay will in- clude dredging as well as wharf irnrprovesnents;

Now that the Provincial .Gov- cmmenl. is carrying out a cam- paign stressing the value of wood- lots to out several thousand farm- ers. some far-seeing agricultural leaders look forward to day when an annual revenue will be received from the cultivated wood- lots on Island farms. Provincial

Padre's Visit Recalisiwartime Hong Kong Days

A friends-hip originating during the -battle at Hong Kong was re- newed lyestordsy between Rev- Fathcr olisrles Murphy of Scar- boro Bluffs Foreign Mission Society and Mr. Frank G. O'Neill of this city.

In December. 1941. when the Japs attacked Kong Kcng, Father Murphy was attached to the Mary- knoll Mission there. During the battle he combined his priestly dut- ies of padre-at-large for the de- fenders with his job as a Red cross driver. The capitulation found him. along with twenty odd brother priests, lashed together for a period of five days without fcod while the Japanese debated the idea of beheading the lot of them. Divine Providence intervened and the group were placed into concentra- tion with the British and American civilians.

Father Murphy. who hails from Glace Bay, N.S.. was later elected spokesman for Canadian civilians in the internment camp and it was through his untirlng efforts in neg- otiating with the Japanese that rqiatriatlon cd all Canadian and a ntanvber of British and American civilians. including many slclt, re- sulted in the summer of 1043.

Shortly after the end of the war Father Murphy returned to the missions in the interior of China, this time to encounter F”nese communism in the form of teen- agod boys wielding rifles with buy- oneto. His replacement on the mis- sions was decided last year when his previous wartime record became known to the and Chinese and he was recalled to Canada temporar-

Alked For Details

He stated that the Prince County dealers recently asked the Provincial Department of Agri- culture for full details of the amount of levy collected on the 1949 crop, from whom such levy was collected and what disposit- ion was made of the funds.

At the rate of one cent a bun- dred pounds there should have been about 854.000 " e stated. The statement he receiv- ed from the Provincial Govern- ment accounted for about 813.000. of this amount 35.0!!! was a loan to the Potato Marketing Board. 51800 for the purchase of a trac- tor with the remainder composed of salaries. advertising and equip-

merit.

He also stated that be had

learned at the Marketing Board's potato levy had not been made legal until Dec. 30. 130 and that the monies collected or levy assessed from Nov. 1 to Dec. 30. 1950 was not legally collectable and hence possibly should not be paid-or if already paid. may bet returnable. "Quite likely.” he added. "the levy assessed against dealers for Jammy 1951 is" not legal. as it had not been eatabliahed that the P.E.l. Potato Marketing Board. a producers board. has legal right to tax any dealer." He did not question the right of the board to tax the producers.
