These were the liberating of education; co-ordination of efforts of--farm organizers, industry and labor; training program for field workers; and development of low cost educational trevai.

"Let us always remember that the prosperity of our country is indivisible and that to maintain 'it we have to work for it con- tinuously in every part of Can- i-ada." stated Mr. Dickey as he spoke last night.

He outlined three key factors necessary to the economic growth of a country: Increase in popula- tion; increases in productivity of the nation; and opportuniifzles for profitable employment.

He stated that all three factors had been in operation in Canada in the post-war period and as a result our economy has grown at. a particularly rapid rate. "This year. 1955, we expect Canada to have a gross national product of C25 VI billion." he stated.

Stevens resigned as minister oft

The .320-foot Carson. built by the federal government as one of the terms of Newfoundland": entry into Confederation in l949. is to be turned over next week to the CNR for operation as government trus-

Normally. she would have gone into service almost immediately between North Sydney and Port Aux Basques. the CNR's Nova Scotla and Newfoundland termini. The expectation here now is that the contemplated service may start by next spring.

SECOND DELAY

The change in plans marks the second time the Carson's entry into the North Sydney-Port Aux Bas- ques run has been held up.

She was due originally to go into service in 1954. But last year an engine-room mishap during her buildcrs' trials resulted in her going back to Canadian Vickers' shipyard at Montreal for repairs. The latest delay. officials here said Monday. resulted from second thoughts on how the Carson would be affected at her dock by the surge of the Atlantic coming through a direct channel cut into

miles longer than the North Sydney-Port Aux Basques run.

ships service around Newfound- land expressed belief the Carson could be affected while she was docked by the swell of the sea coming straight down the channel in heavy weather. It was felt damage to the vessel could result and there could be difficulty in unloading.

This, he said. did not become apparent until the docks had been virtually completed and dredging was finished. The dredging cost about 31.000.000.
