Transportation A n d Communication Af- fected By 50-mile An Hour Gale.

A 50-mile an hour gale accomp- anied by the worst snow and sleet storm of the winter wreaked dam- age to telephone and transpor- tation communications ln Prince Edward Island yesterday.

The Island Telephone Company reported gangs of men had worked incessantly throughout the day to repair ice-covered wires which snapped like thin threads and to- night Charlottetown was cut off completely from the eastern sec- tion of the province.

The aerial line on Radio Station C. F. C. Y. at West Royalty fell to the ground from the loo-foot steel towers in the height of the gale at noon. Ray Stull, Charlotte- town steel worker, climbed up the swaying towers weighed down by tons of ice andeffected temporary repairs yesterday afteri-m.

All locomotives operating on the Island yesterday were pushing snow ploughs and a special plough kept the Summersidc - Charlottetown track open with difficulty.

The car ferry was late in dock- ing at Borden owing to the storm and all trains were held up some- what. The train from Tignish was an hour and 55 minutes late in arriving at Charlottetown. _

Canadian Airways reported their planes were grounded for the day- Heavy ice forming on the planes would have made it folly to fly, officials stated.

Telephone lines across Hills- borough River Bridge were all out. They snapped in the high Wind after being covered with a half- inch of ice. Lines between Char- lottetown and Mount Stewart were down, too. completely cutting off that section of-the Province from which no word could be obfained of the damage caused by ‘the storm. Highways between towns and villages were completely block- ed‘by snow. '

Prime Minister King Gables Sympathy

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) OTTAWA, Jan, Qo-On behalf of the government and people of Carlson, Prime Minister Mackenzie King tonight cabled to the new Sovereign a. message of loyalty and affection, and expressions of sym- pathy in his bereavement. Mr. Mackenzie King also sent personal of " ‘ to Her Majesty, the members of the Royal Family, the Duke of Connaught, ‘and Lord Wigram, private secret- ary to the late King.

The Prime Minister's to the new Sovereign was simply ad- diessed-"I-Iis Majesty the King, Sandringham.” It read as follows:

"I respectfully extend to Your Majesty in your bereavement, and to all the membe of the Royal Family, the expression of the pro- found sympathy of the government and people of Canada.

“l-Ils late Majesty King George was greatly beloved by his subjects in Canada. No sovereign had had so close an association with our country, and toward him, on the part of all, were feelings of per- sonal attachment and devotion.

“Canada shares with the other nations oi the British Common- wealth in mourning the loss of one whose personality and public serv- ice duengthened the bonds of their friendship and unity, and who, es man and King. enjoyed universal esteem and affection.

"The many and clone relation- ships with ‘Canada which Your Majesty possesses are much in the thoughts of the Canadian people at this time. To loyalty and affec- tion there will be added on the part of all Canadians a deep desire earnestly to" support and 1191101‘! Your Majesty in your greet re- sponsibiiitles,

Historic Customs

Within two days ‘the proclama- tion will be read in several historic places in London. The chief read- ing will be from the balcony of St. Jamesls Palace, undertaken by the Duke of Norfolk, Hereditary Earl Marshall of England. He will be attended by officers of the College of Heralds, surrounded by a retinue appearing in robes which are the quaintest survlvals from the days oi the old chivalry. Tire crowd fronting St. James’s Palace will bare their heads while the pro- clamation ls read and when the h:'r.<‘d at the finish cries, "God Sa\: King Edward," the multidude W111 MISWI: with a deep "Amen."

The heralds will then proceed to Charing Cros, accompanied by an escort of lifeguards where the read. ing is repeated. this time by the ‘Garter King at arms" or other high heralds. Then along the Strand, the quaintly garbed com- liiiny will proceed to the site of the 01d Temple Bar. marking the. furthest west point of the City proper. Temple Bar was one of the

City gates when liondon was a. wal-

led city. On great occasions such as these the lord mayor end alder- men exercise their ancient preroga- tiye of formally "admitting" the King or his messengers. The route will be lined ‘vith Troops. Here.the Iord Mayor and alder- men with civic regaiia will be wait- ing. A light cord will be drawn across the roadway to denote the road is closed. The spokesman will acquaint the Lord‘ Mayor with his business in approaching the City and the lord Mayor will signify his willingness to have the proclama- tion read to the citizens. The pro- rtrilamation will be read for- the third me.

Route of‘ Procession

'I‘lre procession next passes along Fleet Street, Ludgate Hill, past st. Paul's and through Cheapside until the Royal Exchange, the Very core of London, is reached. Here the proclamation will be read a. fourth

e ,

In‘ other cities and towns in Great Britain the proclamation will be read by the Lord Mayors,

(the Lord Provosts of Provosts undertake the duty in Scottish towns).

Neither King Edward VII. nor King George heard the proclama- tion of their own accessions read. Queen Victoria herd hers read at St. Jamess Palace bin’. in the close lng hours of her life expressed a desire that her example in this re- spect should not be followed by her silccessors.

Although the Privy Council automatically dissolved on death of the sovereign, the new king invariably re-confirms them in office. In fact he is bound by the constitution to rte-appoint such as are Cabinet Ministers.

The accession of the new monarch in no way interferes with the continuity of parliament. The Reform Act of 1867 swept away the procedure under which parliament was dissolved within six months of the accession. Eleven years after this act the title "Emperor of India.” was added to the monarchs dQS-iznaiiorl and at the time of the Irish settlement the title was again altered from "King of the Unwed Kmgilom of Great Britain and Ireland" etc. to “King of Great. Britain. Ireland, and the Dom_ inlcrjis." etc.
