Key

The
question
of
the
ownership
of
the
Prince

Highway
cannot
be
finally
settled
until
the
;
(.matter
.of
the

permanently
arranged
with
L,the
Canadian
National
Railways,
the
provincial
minister
of
public
works,
Mr.
Anscomb,
has
stated.
Until
such
time,
as
that
is
done
the
responsibility
for
maintenance
of
the
road
can
be
neither
placed
or
4ssiimed.
So
w6
know
now
that
the
matter
which
we
must
immediately
liress
for
is
to
get
the
question
of
the
right-of-way
settled

Therefpre,
the
responsibility
for
the
upkeep
can
jJe
bandied
between
the
two
governments
either
of
which,
if
they
fchoose
to
do
so,
could
repudiate
the
responsibility.
Meantime,
we
might
consider
ourselves,
fortunate
that
the
provincial

is
giving

the
attention
that

is
getting.

says
the

And
yet
the
Department
of
Labor
is
continuing
an
employment
system"
born
of
wartime
necessity
and
geared
to
an
emergency
economy,
when
jobs
were
plentiful
and
urgent,
workers
few
and
hard
to
find.
Employers
of

now
have
been
granted
the
great
privilege

of

names
in

for
help
wanted,
but
the
applications
must
still
be
made
through
the
cumbersome
channels
of
National
Employment
Service.
The
quickest
way
to
get
at
the
heart
of
the
present
unemployment
problem
would
be
to
remove
the
extensive
process
of
documentation

still
in

Let

come

in
the
most

manner
possible,
and
then
let
the
department
concern
itself
with
the
kernel
of
the
problemthe
men
who
are
left
unemployed.
..
National
Employment
Service
should
continue
to
function,
but
as
a
service,
not
as
an
executive
authority.
It
should
stand
ready
to
provide
workers
for
jobs
that
develop
and
cannot
be
filled
through
normal
channels.
It
should
be
advised
of
employment
vacancies
as
they
occur
and
as
they
are
filled,
so
it
can
help
men
who
do
not
know
where
to
look
for
work.
But
it
should'
not
be
permitted
to
impede
this
country's
normal
business
and
industrial
development
by
insisting
on
handling,
individually,

of
