Mager President and for Authorized as Second Class Mail by the: Post Office Department, Ottawa, payment of postage in cash. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1963 No speed from flyin’ Phil on Highway 16 mbrvo Alderman H. J. Scholten is already beginning to show his worth as a civic officer by propound- ing the subject of our war-torn High- Way 16 from the city to Port Edward, and requesting that action be taken on council’s behalf. His initiative was quite evident Monday night when he brought forth the question of the condition of this road for which a contract was award- ed last summer in the amount of $216,- 475, but to date not a pothole has been filled or an inch of pavement spread. The remarks of this man, who took oath of office only a week ago, must he endorsed wholeheartedly. Who is u better judge of the highway’s condi- lion than a project engineer (Mr. scholten) who travels the road back «nd forth to work each day? Mr. Scholten has asked that the city write the Department of High- Ways pointing out the great amount of traffic using the highway section ‘md the damage now being caused to vehicles by the potholes along the route, He added: “We are also con- cerned with our citizens who travel the entire section regularly.” The next move of course, is up to Highwavs Minister Phil Gaglardi to speed things up and although he’s known as flying Phil behind the wheel the same thing can’t be said about his desive to repair our highway since it has been more than six months that the contract was awarded. Alderman A. D. Ritchie's proposal that the department be asked to give particular attention to that part of Highway 16 within city limits is just not good enough. If we were promised resurfacing and strengthening of 11.4 miles of Highway 16 between the Civic Centre in downtown Prince Rupert and Port Edward then that is precisely the area council must press the cle- partment to have done. The highways department would probably be quite happy to come in here and do just the city limits section. This highway problem, particular- ly that part between Galloway Rapids bridge and the city limits, becomes even more pressing’ when it is con- sidered the Alaska Ferry System will soon be running into Prince Rupert (Jan. 31) and a predicted influx of vehicles will take to the stretch that brings them to the mainland and a sub- sequent long journey south. For that matter, all of Highway 16 must be worked over in preparation for greater things to come, and if it should turn out the Alaska ferry ven- ture does not bring the expected heavy flow of travellers then nothing has really been lost in that we will have a good highway which will receive much greater use than it is at present. Any consideration to Highway 16, and especially the Prince Rupert-Port Edward portion, will indeed be 2 boon to us all. God only knows how many times numerous residents here and along the route have cursed the highway on trips tc Vancouver or the interior. We only wish flying Phil knew too. Too much politics in parliament says trio OTTAWA © — Three new members of the Teuse of Commons — a Progressive Conserva- tive.

Two prominent Liberals say the Canadian Vitae is more concerned with what the pov- vrunient is doing than what Parliament is ac- tariplishine. They add that the work of Par- Hament iacks organization. Their comments are contained in a series of articles ¥n the Ottawa Journal entitled “My Impressions of Parliament.” Gordon Fairweather, former New Brunswick i tiorney-feneral and now Conservative MP for Roycl. says he doesn’t like the slow pace of lerislation through Parliament. “it’s utter nonsense that amendments to the Farm Credit Act should have taken so long - the principle was established years ago, f would iike te follow the British system of a Cette timetable .— there is too much politica! play slowing legislation.” Andre Bernier, an accountant who is Social Credit miember for Richmond - Wolfe, says “there is too much polities and too little work in the Commons. ,. ,” “tEsre my duty as a legislator to direct the odministraion of national government, not just 1 keep my eyes on the next election. ..

This will be hard to chonge, beeawuse the news- papers are the products of their readers.” Walter Gardon, Liberal member for Toronto- Davenport who was chairman of the 1957 reyal commission on Cauada's economic prospects, Favs there ure some able people in the Com- Mrols “but if they are going to be effective then (he work or Parliament. must be organ- ized.” “atids this laek of organization that is so purent to me and probably to most new mem- bers.

DISEASES SNEAK The person wno says he has never needed a doctor in his life can be much mistaken since some of the most serious diseases sneak up on a victim before he notices any symp- toms or indication of illness. Regular medical checkups es- pecially for those turned forty years, will help the doctor to detect and treat most diseases in time.
