"The key component of a chain reacting uranium pile is the uranium 235 which. however, is present in normal uranium to the extent oi only about seven-tenths oi one per cent" said Mr. Jack- son. "This proportion is too small to turn the pile into an ef- ficient bomb, However’, the chaln| reaction. once started. must be‘ controlled or the rate oi heat pro- duction would increase rapidly to the point where the uranium would melt or even cause an ex- plosion. though not oi atomic violence.

Premier Jones Speaks ‘At Y's Men's Club

This Province’; greatest losb. Premier J. Walter Jones told the Charlgttetowrfls Y’; Men's Club last night, was not the muiley that left it but the 2,000 young people who emigrated annually. One way the position of tho Province could be improved. ‘lie sai-d. was by training the young people to live here, rather than leaving to make homes elsewhere. That might be accomplished, per- haps, by i-ilanging the education system. There is a plan on fo-it to create a system of high schools throughout the country which may offer something that would ‘uiepire ,many boys and girls to lrve their llvcs in this Province.

Tho Premier was guest speaker

at the weekly meeting of the Club. One result oi the continue!

drift of population was that “we have 5.000 fewer women than men in rural Prince Edward Island," lilo speaker said. He dealt with a vaniety of subjects. including possibilities for the development of new industries.

C.P.ll. Reports Sharp llrop Ill Net Earnings.

MONTREAL. May B - Net earn- ings for the first quarter of 1047 wen‘ the smallest recorded 1n any comparable three-month period since 1005. W.M. Neal, chairman and president qt the Canadian- Paciflc Railway Company, told the company's shareholders at the an- nual meeting here yesterday.

Developing ihe argument that the railways must not be denied the general advance oi the selling pric of their commodities now “ ’ by all other: basic industries Mr. Neal expressed confidence that the freight raie hcai-ings at Ottawa would bring widespread recognition of the need for higher rates.

"Hearings on lwllwllohs H‘! doing much to focus attention upon the critical situation into which the railways have been forced by reason of mounting costs and rig- .:l!v controlled rntes," he said. "In every other country In the world. so for as 1s known. the level of

Mr. MacNaught recalled the vlelt to Prince Edward Island last year of members of the joint Sen- aie-House of Common: commit- tee on Indian affairs and how in- terested they were in the conde- tions and economy of the Province i in general.

"A number of members of that

Little Symphony Orchestra I

A wlendld performance oi class- ical and modern orchestral music W" Blvflll I11 the Prince oi Wales c°llf8e Ilall last night. ihe artists being the Saint Louis Slnfonlciia, aslisled by Miss Anne Nlsbet, harp soloist. The concert was the last in this {Queen's Cdmmlmity Concert Association series, and on; of the Very best in any season. It was unique Intlsmllch a; it was u... first time an orchestra qi this kind has been brought to Princo Edward Island. The response from. the

. audience was such a5 to warm the

01-105 or any Performers.

The Sinfonieita L; conducied by ils founder, Paul Schreiber. an_d is made up of some twcniy young and enthusiastic artists, all members o; file famed St Louis Symphony 01-. chesira. Their experience and tai. cnt in ihe sym-illlonio field were ev- ident from the magnificent tone and balance they achieved tinder Mr. Schreibor’; direction last we. nlng.

“l? 01590018 numbers. from Suite No. 3 In D Major by J5, Bach and the Overture to "The Marriage 0f Figaro" by Mozart. were famil- iar to many in ihe audience and for this reason perizups ihéirilaw-

less interpretation was ihe better appreciated. Th: Bach selection. a piece o;

sustained heavenly melody such as only Bach could write, i5 nailed "Air for the G String" becaugg it was transcribed subsequently for the violin. Th; orchestra gives it its proper symphonic coloring. the music flowing frocn ihe muted in- struments like a benediction, bccaihing cortllllde and peace. It ls a test of the greatest museian- ship to invoke this high mood ad- tfllh-‘lvly. as Mr. Schreiber did last night with his ensemble.

The charming opening violin pas- sage ln the Mmart Overture has become almost as famous ihe opening notes of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. But there is no stern message of Fate or tragedy In “Fig- arc." This riotous musical comedy was written a scant decade before ihe French Revolution. and was suppressed in Paris for political resson|..Pflvate "rehearsals" were given. however, which no less a personage than Queen Marie An- tol-fielte is said to have attended surreptitiously. The Overture does m: draw directly on the scenes of the opera. but it is alive with the same gay laih century spirit. As vintage Mozart. it was served up Ian night In delectable style.

A highlight of the programmi- was another zmnd old classic — Haydns London Symphony No. 2. The orchestra played the fuil four movements. which are less famil- Iar than those of the "Clock" or “Surprlse" sfimllhflmes but contaflw some equally fine passages. The whole work is imlnitri \"iil\ Haydn's wniiiil spirit. simple and vigorous in style. with thclltcs oi’ moving tenderness and nzulffilic dim-Axe?- These f€aLilTe5 uvere superbly brought out in the performance.
