All our citizens will be shocked at the news of the sudden death yes- terday of the Hon. George D. De- Blois, President of the well-known firm of DeBlois Brothers Ltd., and former Lieutenant Governor of Prince Edward Island. Mr. DeBlois had been in apparently good health until his sudden heart seizure, and it is hard to realize that one so act- ive in the life of the community has passed away. His name was a house- hold word for many years, repre- senting an ideal of good citizenship, of integrity, zeal and initiative which

brought him the respect and esteem '

of all classes of our people.

Ir-lighly successful in his business

career, Hon. Mr. DeBlois never lost sight of the responsibilities which go with success, and gave freely of his time, his means and executive ability in promoting humanitarian and social causes. His -keen interest, indeed, was shown in almost every worth- while‘ community movement, par- ticularly those affecting the lives and wellbeing of our younger peo- ple. As an -outstanding layman of St. Paul’s Anglican Church, he set 1 high example in religious activities as well.

Few men achieved such note- worthy success in the high office of Lieutenant Governor as did Mr. De- Blois, in which he was ably assisted in his social duties by Mrs. DeBlois. Many distinguished personages, in- cluding his late Majesty King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, were entertained at Government House during his tenure, and his activities in every way reflected credit upon the office and upon the Province.

I One remembers Mr. DeBlois best for his warm human qualities, his in- variable courtesy and deep attach- ment ,to Christian ideals. He set a great value on friendship and the social virtues, believing firmly that no man liveth to himself alone. While his passing will be widely mourned, it is particularly to his be- loved wife and family a that one’s thoughts turn at this time. We join in extending to them our. sincere sympathy in their bereavement.

- Diverting Trade There was really no need for the Prime Minister to go to great lengths ‘in protesting Mr. _Pearson’s state- ment to the effect that he, the Prime Minister, had “promised” to divert 15 per cent of Canada’s imports from the United States to the United King- dom. Anyone who reads» newspapers or listens to the radio is thoroughly familiar with Mr. Diefenbaker’s stand on this issue before and dur- ing the election campaign. It was that he would “like to see” such a diversion of trade in order that the United Kingdom might be in a bet- ter position to buy from this coun- try. The 15 per cent figure was held out as a possible goal for the future, not as a matter of definite policy. At the same time, it would be un- fortunate if the Prime Minister’s lengthy rebuttal to Mr. Pearson's statement were’ interpreted in the United Kingdom as an indication of waning interest on the part of the Federal Government in increased trade with that country. The Cana- dian trade delegation which wentto the United Kingdom a’ few months if ago used the Prime Minister’s oft expressed wish for more British- (ianadian trade as a talking point-— and used it effectively. There is no, doubt that the impression was left among British business interests and trade officials that there would, ll’ fact. be some diverting of imports—- .1 ust how much was left for later dis- cussion and negotiation. t. It is obvious, too, that the Bri- tralde officials who are about to visit this country are banking on‘ the United Kingdom’s selling more goods to Canada. They probably haven’t any particular quota in mind; but it is safe to say that an ultimate goal of 15 per cent or more is being talk- ed about in British trade circles. In any event, the Prime Minister has ample public backing for the principle be enunciated; and it (“m be assumed that he will not allow carping critic» ism from Mr. Pearson 1)!‘ anyone else to dampen his enthusiasm in this re- npect.

Mr. Moore's Loss

The washing out of a dam is al- ways a serious loss to the owner. It takes much hard work and consider- able expense to replace it. It is to the credit of those who lose such val- uable property from time to time that, in almost every instance, they immediately make plans to rebuild.

The loss of two dams‘ at the Har- vey Moore Sanctuary at Milltown Cross is of special public concern, in that the place has become widely ‘ known through Mr. Moore’s practic interest in wild fowl conservation. He is the only man in the Maritimes, as far as we know, who has achieved the. facility of catching and banding game birds without trapping them or harming them in any way. His sanctuary is a delightful and an un- usual ‘place to visit for this reason alone; and in recent years it has be- come a popular fishing spot. This, too, has meant much work and ex- pense for Mr. Moore. We understand that he has received very little, if any, assistance for either project.

In view of Mr. Moore’s great con- tribution to conservation, we believe that he is entitled to assistance from the Provincial Government, either by a direct financial grant or by loan of equipment and its operators, in his laudable intention to rebuild the dams. He has'rendered a good public service, without remuneration, for several years. Itis only right that the public should come to his aid now.

Britain A Dying Lion?

Here, from a recent speech by Primeilvkinister Macmillan, are some timely reminders of the continued

. vitality, vigor and inventiveness of

Great Britain:

“Our factories produce 70% more thanvbefore the war. In agri- cuture output 'is 060% higher. Since 1945 we have built nearly three mil- lion houses. We are opening 10 new schools a week. Our civil" engineers undertake contracts overseas at the rate of £100,000,000 a year. In» the- last 10 years we have exported 3,- ' 500,000 motor cars. Nearly half the world’s exports of agricultural trac- tors are British. All the 300 gas tur- bine air liners in service in the wes- tern world have been in Bri- tain. Our shipbuilders.‘;.iare‘i'building ‘the two largest liners under con- struction lﬁ any dock? yards, in the world. We invest overseas in higher amount per head than any other nation including the United States. We of __-ate the first nuclear power station to be put into commercial use.

TRIBUTE TO THE LATE HON. MR.. DcBLOIS

si'r,—-It was with -the most pro- found. sorrow that .1, learned_ of the '_pass_lng of‘ my good friend“ the Hon. Longgbefore I had the privilege of his personal acquaintance and friendship I had admired and respected Mr. DeBlois. The dig- nity and charm which he dis- played inthe high office of Lieu- tenant Governor made him one of the most distinguished vice regal representatives in the his- tory of this Province. He was a man capable of measuring up to, the responsibilities of any posi- tion or the prestige of any honor conferred upon him. He was a great man in any role, a repre- sentative of the very finest type of citizenship. ‘

The poet has said that only they who are truly good can be truly great and in reflecting upon the career of Hon. George De- Blois I am convinced that he qualified magnificently for this rigid criterion. Throughout his business and public career, as a citizen, a neighbor and as a family man he was ever marked by nobility of character. His generosity, his public-spirit, his community leadership were out- standing. He has set a high standard of citizenship and his good works will live long in the

WEST RIVER CAUSEWAY

Sir_.—I was amazed when I read in the Guardian of April 12th. the answers given to Mr. Frank Myers by the Minister oil Public Works, to the farmer's query regarding the West River Causeway. I propose to deal only with sections (g) and (h) of his answers.

He implies or states that the opening in. the present bridge is only 30 feet, and thatthe cause- way opening is to be 60 feet. Ilf this were true, how groundless would be our fears that the causeway could be considered an impediment to either navigation or the fishing industry!

Alas! There are a few incon- sistencies or errors that have to be cleaned up before we can ar- rive at a decision, and I am afraid that it will hardly paral- lel the optimism bf, the Minis- ter's report. ,

First, the opening in the pre- sent bridge is approximately 250 feet, instead of 30 feet. Secondly, the 60 foot opening in the cause-

will have to handle a mu.ch lar- ger volume of water, for several reasons. The West River receives the waters of its two main tri- butaries, viz: Clyde River and Long Creek in the intervening area between the above named constructions.

Also to be considered. are the waters of several brooks, a nd

area. I would estimate the vol- ume of water to be almost dou- bled at the Causeway.

' By Patrick Nicholson Special Correspondent for The Guardian

Ottawa: 'Ilhe Ontario provilncial Lilbieirals relbuillfed their federal Ibroitheins at last week’s' conven- tion by rejecting I-Ion. Walter Har- ris, the Federals’ candidate for

provincial leadership. George D. »DeBlois. . :-

volume of water to be cleared through that 60 foot open- ing in the 6 hours that will elapse before the tide turns to the flow? And remember that the rate of flow must increase to the point that ifwill become a veritable maelstrom. Only an thoroughly qualified engineer can give the‘ answers to those ques- tions. .

Frankly, I aim afriad that the speed of the tide would all but eliminate river traffic, except for a couple of short intervals, which wouldbe advantageous only to very isimalil craft of shallow dr ft or low over-all height, as those intervals would be near only alb- solute low or high tide.

Another fact that has been over- looked by the experts, is the re- lative affect of the position and depth of the opening (in the causeway) on the ebb and flow of the tide. Where the present channel is up to approximately 40 feet op, the bottom of the artificial opening will be about on a level with the mud flats, and it will be surfaced with con- crete to prevent erosion. This opening, by the way, will be lo- cated on the flats about 150 feet north of, and parallel to, the pre- sent channel. ‘

Let us take .a look at what might transpire, if a fiisihin-g boat or a pleasure craft of about 4 foot draught approaches the nip- ening from down stream at low water. He will find iusufiflcient water to float him through. but this set back will be remedied after a wait of 2 or 3 hours. But later, as the tide nises, he has to consider if he has clear- ance for his surperstnuctu-re.

Therefore you can see that the period allowed for river trallfic is very brief and of course even that is entirely -contingent/on the assumption that the rate of flow will be no barrier ‘to such trail’- fic.

It must be kept in mind that the West River is navigalble to the present bridge for deep wa- ter tr-affiic; i. e.—steamers, tugs, schooners, etc. The causeway would terminate this traffic for all time as there is no provision for either a “draw” or berthing facilities.

Now let us take a look at fish- ing. Fishermen who are familiar with the methods employed in smelt fishing operations on this river, know that if anything is done which interferes with the natural ebb and ﬂow of the wa- ter over a twelve hour span, it will sound the death knell of srmelt fishing on this productive stream. All those, not familiar with fish- ing conditions here, will have to accept this as a bnna tide state- ment. as an explanation " would consume too much time and space.

Despite the fact that the Min- ister quotes the “ex-perts” as say- ing that oyster culture might be improved. I would counter with the siiggestion that the contrary nll£Z‘I’lI possibly be pxipergled.

Eyes Moy Often Signal Trouble

By Herman N. Bundesen. M.D.

So closely are our eyes relat- ed to the rest. of our bodies that they are affected by almost ev- ery known disease.

They are, in effect, the barom- eters of the human system. Of- ten, the eyes will signal trouble in some other portion of the body even before it can be detectd in a general physical examination.

I've told you previously about some of the bodyillnesses whlch can be detected in the eyes. Now I'd like to discus some others. DROPING EYELID If your upper eyelid diroops. for example. it may point to a nervous disorder If not checked. this disorder might weaken oth- er muscles as well.

If the white of an eye is yel- low, it might indicate the gall- bladder is diseased.

The first symptom of goiter of- ten is protruding eyeballs. And if the pupils are unusually small it may be an indication of mor- phine addiction, ialthough I don't want you accusing your friends of being dope addicts simply be- cause their pupils may seem smaller than yours.

DETECTS SERIOUS AILMENTS By studying the interior of the

ophrthalmoscope, a physician or eye specialist may detect other serious ailments.

High blood pressure or hard- ening of the arteries of the body and brain might be indicated by twisted or narrowed blood vessels in the eye.

If the eye's blood vessels hard- en or hemorrhage, or if there is A fluid swellingbf the retina and eye nerve, it may mean kidney disease.

INFLAMED OPTIC NERVE

Sometimes a swollen or inflam- ed optic nerve indicates a brain tumor in the eye, it may mean there is cancer in some other part of the body.

All of which gives add-ed sup- port to a point which I have been trying to put. across for years: Whether or not you wear glassés. you should have your eyes check- ed ‘frequently. at least once every“ two years.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

G.B.: I am 41. My nose is grad- ually becoming langeir. It is form- ing lumps and looks somewhat purplish.

What can I do for it?

_Answer: From your descrip- tion you may be suffering from rhinophyma of the nose, which is due to a disorder of the oil glands of the nose. Usually a p135. tic surgeon can clear up this di. sense. .

were built and launched at Bon- shaw, and sailed down the river from there less than eighty years ago. Today this would be‘ impos- sible as the depth of water on the upper reaches of the river is only about half of what it was at that time. The fast runn~ii‘1g tides at the present carry off the bulk of the sedirnen-t, but enough falls to the bottom to cause the above mentioned condition. Inter- fere with the effectiveness of the tide, and the gravity of the silt- ing situation will soon becoin ap- parent -in -the gradual extinction of the oyster industry.

I referred earlier to the neces- sity of consulting “qualifi, " en- gineers in this matter, as I am afraid that this was :1 require- ment that was sadly overlooked when “expert” advice was secur- red prior to the beginning of itlhiis project. Any local person in a pos- tion to know, and by that I mean fishermen with yeans of exiper- ience in those waters, or opera- tors of the packet boats opera- ting on this river over a period of years; would have told you that driving piles to span the .chain~nel at this point, was ridi- culous and fantastic. l-Iowever. the “enpert.s" said it could he done, and now we see the sorry mess that resulted.
