liraggers Urged , By Mr. Kltitham

App,“-.1 of the pro ssed expell- merit in the use of rag era was voiced in the House'0i °i'fi!i'i°i|| recently by K8‘. '1‘. causes. Liberal member for King's. wlaess remarks on this subject are thus reported in Hanssrd.

"our fishing industry is an important industry in the Mari- timcs, and particulary in the Pro- vmce of Prince Edward Island. I was greatly pleased with the pro- Kmsw. program, as outlined by m. Minister of Fisheries (Mr. Mnyllew) with a view to improv- mg qusmy, extending better in- spection services. finding markets. gnd educating fishermen and po- tential consumers on how to Pl’!- pm mi. in a palatable and ap- peeling manner for the table, as wen nu assisting fishermen in sub- marginal areas in a financial way-

"The educational features of how, for example, to defrost fish and the "numerous ways that fish can 1,, placed on the table, cannot be °\.,,.,mphaslzed. Preparing fish in us attractive manner could easily. I believe, lead to a much IP09" consumption of fish in Canada. c “ consume approximately twelve pounds of fish pl!’ l>¢i"°'i per year. In Europe the consump- mg. 1. spproxiinately thirty-five pounds per person per yell‘. I0 that in relation to the European consumption there would spliflf to he a strong potential market to be developed in Canada. I do hope that the program outlined by the minister and his efficient staff may be vigoureusiy pursued to fruition.

Dredging Needed

“I pointed out to this House last year. and which the minister is fully aware of. the need of dredg- ing our shoal harbours and in some harbours extending the pro- tection to deeper water to permit free entry and departure of boats. Until this work is accomplished we will have ' ‘ til---i‘ ‘ ' among our fishermen and packers.

“We have come to the time when our fishermen require larger boats of the draggcr type. The small- sized boats now being used for trawling bake and cod are prac- tically useless in inshore fishing. With this boat the fishermen are wsitins for the fish to come to them. New with the larger boats equipped for dragging, the fisher- men can so when the fish are to be found. Our fisherman will be srstlfied to know that this govern- ment is assisting in the construc- tion of larger boats. with an out- girhi grant of 8185 per ten per

Oil .

“There is some argument pro and can as to whether draggera fleiimy the fsedlns [rounds of fish. I have talked with eXp|risn- ted fishermen. and they are not decided on whether the drsgaars iniure the food used by en. mu, "id kill "it small,r fish. It would Mi do any harm in the Maritime Provinces if our fishes-men used iirnssern for a time at least: and

if the time canto when the fishes» &

roan felt that the numbers of fish were becoming dopietsd other methods no doubt could be, found."

In the Legisist-urs yesterday. on NY. 131 L.

' us. took ex- ception to statements Itivtihlledh the Minister of (loss. F. A". Large) in on the Draft Address on Tuesday last.

The Minister wag yqorud gs saying that there was nothing brought to lisht in the wastes-worth case to cast reflection upon any metrics: of the House»

Assurance had been given in the House by the Attorney General on March 3 that a commission would be appointed to inquire into unis matter. Mr. Msthleson said. Therefore he submitted that the Minister's notion in d was 'out of order. and was an abuse of the privileges of the House.

Mr. Mathieoon also obleoted to the statement of the Minister. that he was surprised to ace the lnonuser for Charlottetown making a motion asking for informatlosson this oubiect in the House. when he lied defended Wstiefworth at Georgetown. .

"Phat statement would make it appear that I had personally made a charge and persone.liy.ntt.ributod misconduct to members this House and to a member of Parlia- ment. wharess I did nothlngod the kind," Mir. Mssthieson said. “As a private member I asked leave of the House to make-a motion to discuss a matter of urgent ptlsllc importance and the object was to have the Government take steps to have an inuncdis‘ inquiry. Before you, Mr. Speaker. made a ruling the Government stated iiha commission would be appointed I immediately rose and I think I have been correctly reported in the press as saying ‘That is ex- actly what the Opposition wanted.‘

“Therefore I contend that the facts of the charges t9 be inquired into by an official officer should not be discussed in this Home. What anyone‘: personal opinion may be as to the merit of those charges is not a matter for this House to discuss, because we would be attempting to decide. without the evidence. what a Commissioner is about to decide when all has evidence is before him.

"Also it is unfair and incorrect to suggest that I am personally looking for infomistion or that I ‘had personally ihasia charges.”

iiurses iss'n Addressed By Dr. i. ii. ‘McMillan

In his address is the Associa- tion of Nurses of P.li.I. at. their dusrieriy meeting in the Zion Church lut evening. Dr. J. A. MacMlli.an stressed the need of their sitting their standards high. in order that they lose no prestige as a professional group.

Choosing “Social Security" as his subject. Dr. Macmillan point- ed out the salaries received by the teachers of this Province as an example. “Their salaries last year." he stated. “were not as high as those received by caddies on our golf courses."

Contributory retiring pensions will come in the next few years.

it he said. and the situation with re-

gsrd in Health Insurunce is such that the Federal Government is ready at any time to sit with any Provincial Government to discuss llilt plan they might wish to pro- lfli .

The problem in these changing idsnuds to find where the aura- -ill pxofeuien fits iwto this pic- ture. “Whether you and I will bemervants of the state «depends on the price we set upon our- selves." Dr. MacMlllan said. “We "are all interested in security, in- cluding pension plans. If it's sec- urity we went above all else, let's buy it at any cost. If it's a high standard of service to the com- mund-iy we want, let's buy that."

Educational Program

-During the afternoon meeting it was decided that an educai.ion"al Dfolrnm be held in Charlottetown in the Fall. under Sister John the Bllitsst. An educational program will also be held in Su-mmerslde in April.

Two community nursing regis- fries are being set up at the pm. sent time. one in Chariotteto-um. and one in Sumrnerslde, for all private duty nurses. Nursing as- sistants will also be listed at these two centres.

it was also pointed out that al- though the Amociation had not protected to the present sitting of the House in regard to unempioy. ment insurance for hospital nurses, “iii iiiis had been done by the Hospllnl Association.

This "Nursing Education" phue of the work is very important and applies to both the student nurse and the graduate, the repent ¢on. tulues. The Act requires: (1) A standard curriculum in the con- duct of Schools of Nursing. (2) Adequate supervision during the nurse!’ training.

George Mooney, Executive Director of Mayors and Municipalities to see if an expert on assessing might be available.

It was indicated that attempts had been made to obtain the ser- vices of tax assessors from Mont- real and Toronto but that none could be spared from their work in those areas. However. it was found that an experienced con- sultant, Mr. J.. W. Rankin, Mont real would be available for a. City tax study and that Councillor Stewart, in Montreal on personal

business had been delegated to confer with him. Mayor MacDonald stressed the

ilnpuitanca of considering this matter lrnmedistely as he had many complaints regarding the payment of taxes because of the inequalities due to the high cost of building and the increased value of property.

He suggested that the City assessor and clerk send an outline of the tax affairs to Mr. Mooney who could have Mr. Rankin look into the matter.

Councillor O'Donnell. Chairman of the Fire committee sugzested that Fire Chief H. H. Jewell should be a.p'pol.ni.ed Fire Marshall of the City. This appointment it was explained would be for a tem- porary period and a part tn.-ne P95- itlon until many of the dangers had been removed.

Mayor MacDonald expressed his favor of the proposal but Councillor cox stated that he felt the market had long outlived it‘.-. usefulness and should have been sold to the Government who desired to buy it at one time. It was stated that the Council had been offered $260.- ooo for the lsuiidinl. .

Councillor Benton. chairman of the Fire Committee proposed that 30 lights be installed in Victoria Bark. Lamp rates for one year for these lights would total $1.620. Wiih the lights to be used from dusk to dawn all year round.

Mayor MacDonald, after reflect- ing upon the increased costs which those proposals would bring. indic- ated that all were needed but that the taxes would not be raised to meet the expenses.
