Work Well Underway On Bank Building

The Royal Bani: of Canada is building a brand new home in Summerslde. Work on the build- ing at 386 Water Street.Just across the street from the present branch. is already well under way, and A. S. Hopkins, the branch manager. hopes that he and his staff will 50 m0Vi!1l inrto their new quart- ers in about seven months time,

Comlderably larger than the present branch. the new building will provide for increased work- ing and public space. ensuring speedy service with a minimum of WINH18. The old branch has be- come too small to.. give adequate service to the growing Town oi Summerside and its environs. and the new Royal Bank building has been designed to meet present day requirements and the needs of the

As a result of greatly improved facilities. customers will be as- sured oi- speedier service than ever before. in attractive and con- genial surroundings.

From the street. the new build- ing will present a clean cut. ap- pearance with eye-catching mod- ern limo. An outstanding feature will be an imposing entrance oi glass and aluminum. over which there will be a name sign silhouetted by concealed lighting. The exterior walls are to be fin- ished in Queension limestone with a granite base. '

Brightness and space will key- note the interior oi the building. which will incorporate the latest innovations in branch bank de- sign. Walls will be iinished in soft pastel shades. "Sunlight" lighting is being introduced by the latest type of fluorescent nxtures. en- suring a bright. cheerful appear- ance even on darkest days. New low-line counters of bleached oak. with aluminum counter grills will replace the old type of high coun- ter. and tellers' cages will be virt- ually eiiminsted. To cut down noise. the ceiling iaio be of ac- oustic tile and there will be a ter- razzo tile floor.

The result will be an office fully in step with the times. fresh as a daisy. cheerful and friendly as the smiling girls who look after cheq- ues and ovardrafts.

Of-particular interest is the new vault. which will contain both safety depoolt boxes and facilities for the safe keeping of customcrs' documents. Special cubicles will be provided conveniently close to the vault for the use oi custom- ars who wish to clip their coup- ons in privacy or examine their documents without interruption from outside. In addition to hav- ing improved accommodation in the working space. the staff will also be provided with comfortable rest rooms and a lunch room in the basement.

Mr. Hopkins is naturally enthus- iastic about this ncw branch building and particularly over the fact that he and his staff will be able to extend to customers. alr- rcnt and potential. a faster. more efficient service than ever before. fully in keeping with the needs of this progressive community.

force and tell their oiilcers so.

It is understood that consider- able numbers of them have done so. The only regulars the Gov- ernment. has approved for the spe- cial iorce are some officers and key N.C.O.'s and specialists. Their numbers may run to 500. They will go with it wherever it goes.

As for the other regulars. Indic- ations are that they will learn that volunteering won't help. that the army will take those it wants and ignore those it doesn't want for the special force, regardless of personal wishes.

The tide of volunteers from civ- ilian life has lifted most doubt that there won't be enough of the men who handle the combat chores-that is. the rlflemen in the fighting infantry companies. There are plenty of those and their training can be accomplished as quickly" as any. The shortages, as usual. are among the tradesmen. the technicians and specialists.

The railways already had om- bargoea In effect. against accept- ing ship A of livestock and per- ishable goods. and they announ- ced an embargo on all freight ship- ments to go into effect at mid- night local time Monday night.

The Government's decision to send in a last-ditch mediator - its second move in the deadlock this week - came late in the week's third day of Cabinet sessions on the rail crisis.

Prime Minister at. Laurent made the announcement at 4 P. M. E.D.'I'.. with Cabinet still slttins. and immediately informed the dis- patents that the "special commis- sioner” was getting under -way for the scene of negotiations in Mon- treal. v

There were no indications of fur- tber Government moves in the event Dr. Mackintoshts mediation efforts should not be successful. but it was expected the Cabinet would be kept ready for quick meetings as developments warranted.

In his brief nnouncement. the Prime Minister indicated that the spokesman for the 131.000 Union members involved had let the Government know they felt a mediator would be helpful in get- ting a settlement in time to stave off a strike.
