May I take this opportunity of wishing all citizens of Prince Eri- ward Island a very prosperous and happy Nu; Year. May the Year' into which we are now passing end on 0. note of even greater achieve- ment and progress for Canada than the year 1951.

The past year has been good to our Country and to our Province and we have much for which to be thankful as we view it in ret- rospect in its dying moments Div- ine Providence has once again blessed this beautiful Island and evidences of this Divine benevol- ence may be seen in the continued bountiful harvests from land and sea. May our hearts be full of thanksgiving for these gifts so lav- ishly bestowed on us and may we ever reverently and gratefully re- member the source from whence they came.

During the year our Gracious sovereign, King George VI suffer- ed A serious illness which necessit- ated a major operation. Though critically ill for a time, by the grace of God and the medical skill of his physicians. he came through his illness and was able to deliver his annual Christmas message to his people in the British Common- wealth and Empire. May he cori- tinue to recover his health and be spared to reign over us for many years to come.

In November our Province was lrrrnoured by the visit of the heir- css to the throne. our charmin-z Princess Elizabeth and her lzallant contort, the Duke of Edinburgh.

Their charm and friendliness won all our hearts and I know that you join with me in wishing them many years of happiness torzether May the warmth of Canada's wel- come always remain a pleasant memory to them as they prepare themselves for years of service to the Crown they so ably represented

The international situation re- mains tense and several more trouble spots have broken out in the past year especially Egypt and Iran. May it be that the example of tolerance and understanding set by the British family of nations in l.ht'll' dealings with each other will permeate the halls of the United Nations and serve as a. model on which other countries may base their actions in this troubled world.

All in all. we may look back on ilie year 1951 with pride" in Can- ruia's achievement. and forward to 19:72 with renewed hope and con- fidcnce in our Province, our Coun- try and our British Commonwealth of Nations. May their influence for good and for Peace in our troubled

Unemployment Insurance ben- eflts totalling an .estim,atcd mow than 5i00.oo0.were paid to res- idents of King's and Queen! Counties during the ye)” Which is ending. according to figures com- plied by the National Employ- ment Office, Charlottetown. Fig- ure; for Prince County are on record at Summersidc.

This amount was paid to 4100 claimants living in every village. town and settlement in the two Counties. Some claimants drew benefits for only a few weeks. others for several months. In all 26,000 warrants were issued by the office averaging 512.00 each. the lowest for about 35.00 and the highest for 021.00.

Charlottetown and vicinity with its concentrated population oi workers drew almost exactly half the insurance checks. with the re- mainder evenly spread through-

out the Province. It is interesting to note that the Counties of King's and

Queen's drew more money from the fund each year than is con- tributed. This favorable balance arises from the fact that the is- land is short on year-round in- dustries. and has a big proportion of seasonally unemployed people each fall and winter.

This year about 9.000 insurance books were issued to the workers of 0'10 employers. but many lioid- ers of insurance books such as employees of fish canncries. billio- ing construction workers. stu- dents. and highway construction workers are not continuously em- ployed. and most. of them draw benefits at some time during the year. Perhaps only about 7,000 books or less are being siainpcu each week during the yczir.

The emrployment branch of ihc office placed almost 3500 people in the twelve month period through orders received from cm- ployers. The jobs fillcd ranged from accountants and stenograph- crs. through all occupations in the construction trades. lo mn- cliinists. seamen cooks. hair- dress a, farm labourere and do- mestics to baby-sitters.

More than 4-100 people were referred to the 3500 positions fil- led, which reveals that employ- ers exercised their judgment in rejecting some of the people rc-

0'r'rAlV,A. December 30 - (Special) - W. Chester 5. Mc- Lure, Progressive Conservative member for Queen's, was credit- ed by his colleagues on both sides of the House with playing a large part in speedinl the end of the quarrelsome long drawn out fifth segion of Can- ada's 21st parliament that ended abruptly shortly before '1 P. M. saturday. .

Biggest factor in prolonging the session had been the bitter op- position battle against the Gov- ernment's ban on resale price fix- mg.

Mr. MCLHIG fought lustily alongside his fellow: until Thurs- day night when he decided the Opposition position had been made crystal clear and further wrangling would serve no pur- pose but to drag out proceedings to the detriment of public busi- ness and membersi privateaffairs.

Hc spearheaded a movement in the Opposition lobby to cry quits and get on with the remaining business of the House. His lend- crship attracted considerable Con- servative support in in-formal dis- cussions Friday.

By 10:80 PM. when the House rose. Opposition fire had slacken- ed sufficiently to permit third reading and passage of the Re- sale Price Maintenance Bill.

Late Friday night he told the House he had returned from spending Christmas at his home not to "ask questions" in the RPM debate but to be on hand to fight any Government move to act on the. Prime Minister's threat of applying closure. Once he sllw closure would not be in- vokcd he felt further discussion on RPM would be fruitless.

During discussion of the bill in committee Mr. McLure asked the Minister of Justice how the pro- posed ban on price fixing would affect any group of farmer; who were grouped together in an in- formal way to market their pro- duce and in doing so set their own retail prices.
