The Freshman class is the largest on record F3); that explains why the soph: have that look oi eager . anticipation. The class oi '51 also includes three new co-eds, towhom we extend a special welcome and rho hope that their years here with us will be pleasant ones. The illgh School too has kept pace with the college in the i crease in its numbers.

but year we repeatedly herald- ed the opening of Memorial Hall. It is now open and houses the Senior, Junior, and Sophomore classes. Dalton Hall, which most oi you alumni associate with hap- py memories of here, is now the residence of freshmen and Grade XII students. No. there are no more Seniors on second corridor. Remember when you had to have special permission tn go to Dal- ton, when you were in high school? Later when you were a freshman or a sophomore you did not visit any of the rooms oni second unless you were invited?‘ And when you finally became a senior how superior you felt be- cause you were living on second corridor? Now Dalton must take lecond place among the residen- ces.| But don't feel too bad about it-you wouldn't ii you could see the new building. It is now re- ceiving its finishing touches; a rlsb oi paint here. a few tiles there. and a couple of electrical] fixtures are all that is required now to nnish our latest addition to the campus. Memorial Hail is a three-storey structure with thir-l

teen students’ rooms. two faculty rooms. and one common lounge loom on each floor; altogether it has facilities for eighty students Ind six faculty members. It is a beautiful building with spacious, well-lighted rooms; eqzh room ls provided with a dresser. and hot and cold running water. The rooms on first and third are painted light green; those on sec-| and are about light blue. In short - . it is an ideal residence; no one appreciates that fact more than its first occupants. But to most of its residents one of its assets Is that it overlooks the football field; the rooms on that side, es- peclally those on third. afford an excellent view oi the field (I shall have to see "Big vlfillis" about a

Today as I travelled about Prince County, my work took me to O'Leary which is one of the bus- lest centres in the country.

Before arriving at O’ I stopped at Paughk Service Station and there found the proprietor. Urban Paugh busy working on a car. Inside I saw Jim Paugh re- pairing the generator on Helen Pailglhs car before starting to West Devon vthere she Ls employed as school teacher there. Looking 0n was Jacob McNaught and at that time Frank Bryan drove up in his truck for gas accoen-pan-fed by his dad, Hugh Bryan. Following close behind was John Arsenault and his good wife who were riding in his new car purchased frcm Dr. Eraser in Alberton. They were on their way to the Egmont Bflly Exhibition.

I then moved on to OLeary where as usual was the scene of mu-cih activity in spite of the fact that the weather was very unrpleaa- ant. i

My first stop there was at the new service station operated I Stanley and Albert Dunville, Stan was busily working on Ken Turn- er's truck while Albert was repair- ing a defect in Robert Oulterfs car. George Mclsaac had Ray Jelly’; car up on the hoist and was busy greasing. Roy by the way is home from Toronto visiting his mother.

"'I‘hat." Mr. Myers said. “is the situation as I understand it. Here- tofore we have had a peaceful Province here; we have never had lockout! or strikes. or any serious labour troubles. Therefore there never was any occasion for a De- l Dartment of Labour or for a Min- i ister of Labour. Therefore it’ seems to me that when any qiles. tion of this kind arises, it should be dealt with by the Premier of the Province and his Executive Council taking charge.

"At this meeting on Saturday, although everybody said a lot, no- body seemed to get very far. Fin. ally they invited Premier Jones over to the office, and he was kind enough to come. I wish ha were here today. with a seat up alongside of the chairman. How- WBT- “it Problem was put up b; the Premier the other day, and he didn't eem to have any immgqi- ate solution.

He agreed with pre- vious speakers that it is a matter l for the Dominion Government, Mr, Myers’ suggestion to Premier Jones was very good. but that would just settle the trouble at the local plant. There is another concern doing business at Moncton, to which our Livestock Marketing Board ship most of their hogs. If Mr. Myers’ suggestion were fol- lowed, it would throw all the bus. iness of the Province into the hands of Canada Packers‘ plant in Charlottetown. Voice: "A good place for itl" M-r. Mullin: “lt might be a good place, but it would throwing the Whole buSiness of our hog in- dustry into one hands. I guess Premier Jonas hesitated before taking that step, of lust solving the matter in Charlottetown with- out any consideration of the strik- es elsewhere. I don't think we ought to urge that upon the Pre- mier, because lt would only be a VERY temporary way of dealing with it." With regard to the War Meas- ures Act, Mr. Mullin said that when you lay down the principle that the Dominion should enter the Provincial field, then you have nationalization of the coun- try's businessHThat means sociol- ism. The time has come when we must revolutionise our ideas; he could see no other remedy. What- ever party is in power in the fut- ure, economic necessities will compel them to takel measures that we never dreamed of fifty

“I thought it would be a fino gesture on the part of the Pre- mier and the Provincial Govern- ment if they would call represen- tatives of Canada Packers and of Labour to a joint meeting in the Premier's Office, and talk things over as gentlemen having a dif- ference of opinion. I further lug. seated that the Premier request illB men t0 go back to the plant tomorrow morning and go to work, andlie would guarantee every cent‘ coming to them by reason of the Canada-wide settlement that will eventually be made." Mr. Myers figured that if the workers received 2o cents an hour increase. it would only amount to about $90 or $100 a day.

Asked whether they were in a position to accept ihls offer. Mr- Jones said he could not answer the ‘question at present. Nor could he say what attitude would be taken by Canada Packers. He urged farmers to get behind the local workmen. “when we worker"; for Davie and Fraser's, we got 50 cents an hour but we were treated,as men,” he said. "Canada Packers want i2 hours work out of eight. ‘They want 46 ihouns out of 40. Ii you can't do it, out you g0."
