L.C. Young, director of the pro-
jc-t at Fundy Park, described
five new, varities of potatoes de-
veloped by this project, which
wa; “working on a national scale
for all provinces, and for the good
of the country as a whole. The
potatoes grown at this station are
specialized—each grown for a
special purpose’ and area-of the
country—resistant to diseases in a
given locality.
We ‘can only - keep one step
ahead of - ‘blight, rot, virus and
other diseases. because as soon as
we breed a potato that is resis-
tant to one-race of the disease,
another ‘race develops ich will
kill the plant in a matter’of days.
At present there are 16 races of
the blight organism and this is
expected to increase—-while ge
are four factors called Pia
potato plants which make them
resistant to the disease.”

university.
Dismantelling of the old rink
will get underway immediately.
Some of the material will be used
in the new building but the major
portion will be sold to interested
parties.
The new Arena will be built on
th> present site and will have an
overall length of 217 feet with a
107 foot width.
The artificially frozen ice sur-
face will be 190’ x 85’ with seating
capavity for 1,200. The usual
dressing room facilities will be at
one end of the building, A bal-
cony at the same end will also be
used to handle spectator interests.
The Arena, a standard pattern
steel-framed structure designed
by Atkinson Buildings Limited of
Toronto, is used . extensively
throughout Canada. The walls are
concrete blocks with a galvanized
steel roof.
With work getting underway im-
mediately, University officials are
hopeful that the building will be
ecmpleted by mid-November. The
facilities are expected to be put

BELGRADE (Reuters)—Pres-
ident Tito has asked the United
States for a new long-term indus-
trial loan of moresthan $300,000,-
000, officials said Monday.
They. expressed confidence
there would. be an affirmative re-
ply from Washington ‘within 60
days for at least ph of the
amount,
Russia suspended a long-term
loan worth $285,000,000 in May
during a-dispute with Tito over
his “separate road’ to commu-
nism. The . request for credits,
now under consideration in Wash-
ington, the informants said, totals
lags $300,000,000 and $350,000,-
“rere cash also is being
sought in Westerm Europe to
finance industrial projects. Some
of the schemes were included in
the Soviet agreement. Others are
new. :
Yugoslavia also is angling for
military spare parts from ‘the
United States. They are needed
for equipment provided before
Tito renounced U.S, military aid
last December.
ENVOYS SEEKING PARTS

mission is in Washingtonito nego-
tiate long-term loans for the
Tito Asks U.S.
For Huge Loan
eventually may request some
form of military aid, especially
if his relations with the Soviet
bloc deteriorate further.
Informants said the outlook is
good ‘for receiving loans on three
major projects:
. Construction of an artificial
fertilizer factory near Belgrade
with an annual capacity of 100,-
000 tons. Russia’s loan was
intended to include such a fac-
tory.
2. A power station, one of
a. network that. eventually may
enable Yugoslavia to export 5,-
000,000,000 kilowatt hours of elec-
tricity annually.
3. New rolling stock to mod-
ernize the railroad.
TWO BILLION FOR TITO
Since Tito’s first break with the
Kremlin in 1948, Western aid to
Yugoslavia ‘is estimated at about
$2,000,000,000.
The United States contributed
the lion’s share but Britain and
France helped. ;
Diplomats here believe France,
Italy and West Germany may
make small loans to Yugoslavia.
It was learned that a general
approach was made to Britain
last week for equipment. Fi-
nancial aid from the British zov-
ernment, however, is considered

N OTHING STRANGE -
The defence lawyer suggested
that there was “nothing strange’’
about. the fact that Mrs. Ross did
not. call a doctor for her husband.
‘She had seen him under the in-
fluence of liquor on other. occas-
ions and in this case he was no
worse than previously. “‘One does’
not always get a doctor when);
one’s husband. gets drunk”, Mr.
Campbell suggested to Dr. Mac-
Donald. To this the physician
agreed.
Dr. John Craig, provincial pa-
thologist, described the injuries of
the dead man. He said they were
a fractured upper jaw, a com-
os fractured nose ya a
. i. co fracture at the left side
<3
The se ah said an abras-
ion or the skin at the right side
of the skull indicated that the
head had received severe exter-
nal force at this point and in his
opinion this caused the fracture
dition which he described as “‘not
uncommon” in medical practice.
UNSTEADY ON FEET
In re-enacting for the. asig ink
possible’ circumstances
which Ross met his foe. ~—
fenee Counsel suggested that ac-
cording to previous evidence,
Ross was struck a blow on the
face—‘‘but it was not the blow on
the face that killed him—it was
hitting of his head on the side of
the stove as he went down and I
suggest: that he would not have
been so unsteady on his feet had
he not had as much liquor in him
as he did,” Mr, Campbell continu-
Evidence previously given by
Doctor Craig revealed that the
= .man’s blood: contained .18
cent aleohol. Mr, Campbell
rere that .15 per cent is con-
sidered too much alcohol to allow
a zxan to drive a car ‘and felt that
18 per cent represented a high
state of intoxication.
Dr. Craig stated that .18 per
cent alcohol in the ‘blood would
indicate a high degree of intake
of liquor into the system, He sti-
pulated however that the same
amount of liquor on different per-
sons has a different reaction.
ACCUSED’S BEHAVIOR
Ivan Wood, farmer and neigh-
having Roger MacLean hired
with him on Saturday working at
the hay. He told of going to Car-
digan for beer on Saturday after-
noon and of going to Charlotte-
town with Roger MacLean on the
same evening.
bor of the Ross family told of,
home of his step father about 1.00
a.m. Sunday. About five o'clock
the same morning he was sum-
moned by Walter Ross’ wife who
lying outside the house and she
was afraid he might catch cold.
Mr. Wood went to the Ross
home and found the man as des-
cribed by his wife. He carried
Ross into the house and placed
him on the kitchen lounge. He no-
ticed blood, on Walter’s face and
that he was breathing heavily.
CALL A DOCTOR j
Wood suggested that they call'a
doctor but Mrs. Ross told him
she had seen her husband in
worse shape than this and he
would sleep it off and be all right
in the pir ipes
Mr. Wood said Mrs. Ross told
him toe she had called her son
Roger’ about half past four to see
what Walter was doing in the
kiltchen.
The witness then told of Roger
MacLean coming to hig home on
the afternoon of Sunday the 27th.
Roger told him of having a fight
with his step father. He had been
called by his mother to. investi-
gate a rumpus down stairs. He
found Walter Ross preparing to
put on a fire in the kitchen stove.
Ross asked him for a drink and
Roger supplied him with a can of
on the left side of the head—a con- | beer
QUITE FRANK
Mr. Wood said Roger MacLean
was quite fr; in-his account of
whit happened.. He gaid Ross
ef threw a bottle at him and after
he had .ducked the bottle he
caught the elder man with a blow
to the face and he went down
striking the stove and the side
of the door jam. Roger did not
appear to think thet Walter Ross
was dead.
Roger saw that the elder man
was knocked out so he took him
outside. He thought the fresh air
— help bring him to, he told
EVEN TEMPERED

fence Counsel, Mr. Wood said he

Seamen Reject
Conciliation i
Board Report —
MONTREAL (CP) — The Sea-
farers’ International Union said)
Monday the majority of the 3,000
seamen working on the Great
Lakes have rejected a concilia-
tion board’s recommendations for
settling an eight-month-old — dis-
pute with nine Great Lakes ship-
ging compan.e:.
The SIU publication, The Cana-
dian Sailor, reported the board
report was not favored by “a
substantial majority” of the lake
seamen affected,
“In the event of a: rejection,”
the publication said, ‘‘the elected
SIU negotiating committee would
again petition the Canadian min-
ister of labor for further efforts
to find a settlement satisfactory
to the membership.’”’
The Association of Lake
Carriers met with the union last
Thursday. At that time spokes-
men for both groups said ‘‘there
may or may not be another meet-
ing.”
The union is believed to have
submitted its demands to ‘the em-
ployers during a meeting in ~
Montreal hotel. An SIU del-
egate, coming from the confer-
ence room, said, “we're waiting
to see their decision,”

OTTAWA (CP)—The Commons
|Monday night unanimously ap-
proved ,a bill extending the re-
payment period for a $7,500,000
federal loan to Dominion Coal
Company Limited of Sydney, N.S.
Mines Minister Comtois said
the company has missed making
the last two payments, one due
Dec, 31 1957, and the other June! y
30. Because the mechanization
program for which the loan was
granted was running behind
schedule, the government had de-
cided to extend the repayment
period,
The company started repaying
the lopn) in 1955 and had repaid
about $1,200,000. Original interest
rate was 3% per cent but under
the loan extension it would be
raised to four and repayment re-
sume in 1963 and be completed
‘within 15 years,
H. J. Robichaud (L—Glouces-
ter) asked whether the company’s
default of its payments was a re-
sult of the fact it has a large
stockpile of coal on hand--about

"But wouldn't the stockpile con-

LONDON (AP) — Britain re-
minded Iceland Monday that gun-
boats will guard British trawlers | ‘
against interference inside Ice-
land’s new 12-mile fishing limits,
A foreign office spokesman said
Britain still hopes “‘for an agreed
solution” to the quarrel. Iceland
extends to enforce a new law ex-
tending het sea limits to 12 miles
from four on Sept. 1 and British
fishing trawlers, protected by na-
val vessels, intend to! defy the
new’ fimits.
Iceland’s minister of fisheries,
Ludvik Joseffsson, a Communist,
said Sunday we use of force. by
Britain will be regarded as an
armed attack. He expressed the
view Britain hardly would take
that sort of action against a de-
fenceless state.
Iceland wants to ve her
fishing grounds which are used
by trawlers of Britain, West Ger-
many, France and Holland.
BRITISH POLICY

We ‘can only - keep one step
ahead of - ‘blight, rot, virus and

another ‘race develops ich will

will get underway immediately.
Some of the material will be used
in the new building but the major
portion will be sold to interested
parties.
The new Arena will be built on
th> present site and will have an
overall length of 217 feet with a
107 foot width.
The artificially frozen ice sur-

dressing room facilities will be at
one end of the building, A bal-
cony at the same end will also be
used to handle spectator interests.
The Arena, a standard pattern
steel-framed structure designed
by Atkinson Buildings Limited of
Toronto, is used . extensively
throughout Canada. The walls are
concrete blocks with a galvanized
steel roof.

BELGRADE (Reuters)—Pres-
ident Tito has asked the United
States for a new long-term indus-
trial loan of moresthan $300,000,-
000, officials said Monday.
They. expressed confidence
there would. be an affirmative re-
ply from Washington ‘within 60
days for at least ph of the
amount,
Russia suspended a long-term
loan worth $285,000,000 in May
during a-dispute with Tito over
his “separate road’ to commu-
nism. The . request for credits,
now under consideration in Wash-
ington, the informants said, totals
lags $300,000,000 and $350,000,-
“rere cash also is being
sought in Westerm Europe to
finance industrial projects. Some
of the schemes were included in
the Soviet agreement. Others are

Yugoslavia also is angling for

for equipment provided before
Tito renounced U.S, military aid
last December.

form of military aid, especially
if his relations with the Soviet
bloc deteriorate further.
Informants said the outlook is
good ‘for receiving loans on three
major projects:
. Construction of an artificial
fertilizer factory near Belgrade
with an annual capacity of 100,-
000 tons. Russia’s loan was
intended to include such a fac-
tory.
2. A power station, one of
a. network that. eventually may
enable Yugoslavia to export 5,-

tricity annually.
3. New rolling stock to mod-
ernize the railroad.
TWO BILLION FOR TITO
Since Tito’s first break with the
Kremlin in 1948, Western aid to
Yugoslavia ‘is estimated at about
$2,000,000,000.
The United States contributed
the lion’s share but Britain and
France helped. ;
Diplomats here believe France,
Italy and West Germany may
make small loans to Yugoslavia.
It was learned that a general
approach was made to Britain
last week for equipment. Fi-

N OTHING STRANGE -
The defence lawyer suggested
that there was “nothing strange’’
about. the fact that Mrs. Ross did
not. call a doctor for her husband.
‘She had seen him under the in-
fluence of liquor on other. occas-
ions and in this case he was no
worse than previously. “‘One does’
not always get a doctor when);
one’s husband. gets drunk”, Mr.
Campbell suggested to Dr. Mac-
Donald. To this the physician
agreed.
Dr. John Craig, provincial pa-
thologist, described the injuries of
the dead man. He said they were
a fractured upper jaw, a com-
os fractured nose ya a
. i. co fracture at the left side
<3
The se ah said an abras-
ion or the skin at the right side
of the skull indicated that the
head had received severe exter-
nal force at this point and in his
opinion this caused the fracture
dition which he described as “‘not
uncommon” in medical practice.
UNSTEADY ON FEET
In re-enacting for the. asig ink
possible’ circumstances
which Ross met his foe. ~—
fenee Counsel suggested that ac-
cording to previous evidence,
Ross was struck a blow on the
face—‘‘but it was not the blow on
the face that killed him—it was
hitting of his head on the side of
the stove as he went down and I
suggest: that he would not have
been so unsteady on his feet had
he not had as much liquor in him
as he did,” Mr, Campbell continu-
Evidence previously given by
Doctor Craig revealed that the
= .man’s blood: contained .18
cent aleohol. Mr, Campbell
rere that .15 per cent is con-
sidered too much alcohol to allow
a zxan to drive a car ‘and felt that
18 per cent represented a high
state of intoxication.
Dr. Craig stated that .18 per
cent alcohol in the ‘blood would
indicate a high degree of intake
of liquor into the system, He sti-
pulated however that the same
amount of liquor on different per-
sons has a different reaction.
ACCUSED’S BEHAVIOR
Ivan Wood, farmer and neigh-
having Roger MacLean hired
with him on Saturday working at
the hay. He told of going to Car-
digan for beer on Saturday after-
noon and of going to Charlotte-
town with Roger MacLean on the
same evening.
bor of the Ross family told of,
home of his step father about 1.00
a.m. Sunday. About five o'clock
the same morning he was sum-
moned by Walter Ross’ wife who
lying outside the house and she
was afraid he might catch cold.
Mr. Wood went to the Ross
home and found the man as des-
cribed by his wife. He carried
Ross into the house and placed
him on the kitchen lounge. He no-
ticed blood, on Walter’s face and
that he was breathing heavily.
CALL A DOCTOR j
Wood suggested that they call'a
doctor but Mrs. Ross told him
she had seen her husband in
worse shape than this and he
would sleep it off and be all right
in the pir ipes
Mr. Wood said Mrs. Ross told
him toe she had called her son
Roger’ about half past four to see
what Walter was doing in the
kiltchen.
The witness then told of Roger
MacLean coming to hig home on
the afternoon of Sunday the 27th.
Roger told him of having a fight
with his step father. He had been
called by his mother to. investi-
gate a rumpus down stairs. He
found Walter Ross preparing to
put on a fire in the kitchen stove.
Ross asked him for a drink and
Roger supplied him with a can of
on the left side of the head—a con- | beer
QUITE FRANK
Mr. Wood said Roger MacLean
was quite fr; in-his account of
whit happened.. He gaid Ross
ef threw a bottle at him and after
he had .ducked the bottle he
caught the elder man with a blow
to the face and he went down
striking the stove and the side
of the door jam. Roger did not
appear to think thet Walter Ross
was dead.
Roger saw that the elder man
was knocked out so he took him
outside. He thought the fresh air
— help bring him to, he told
EVEN TEMPERED

fence Counsel, Mr. Wood said he

Seamen Reject
Conciliation i
Board Report —
MONTREAL (CP) — The Sea-
farers’ International Union said)
Monday the majority of the 3,000
seamen working on the Great
Lakes have rejected a concilia-
tion board’s recommendations for
settling an eight-month-old — dis-
pute with nine Great Lakes ship-
ging compan.e:.
The SIU publication, The Cana-
dian Sailor, reported the board
report was not favored by “a
substantial majority” of the lake
seamen affected,
“In the event of a: rejection,”
the publication said, ‘‘the elected
SIU negotiating committee would
again petition the Canadian min-
ister of labor for further efforts
to find a settlement satisfactory
to the membership.’”’
The Association of Lake
Carriers met with the union last
Thursday. At that time spokes-
men for both groups said ‘‘there
may or may not be another meet-
ing.”
The union is believed to have
submitted its demands to ‘the em-
ployers during a meeting in ~
Montreal hotel. An SIU del-
egate, coming from the confer-
ence room, said, “we're waiting
to see their decision,”

solution” to the quarrel. Iceland
extends to enforce a new law ex-
tending het sea limits to 12 miles

fishing grounds which are used
by trawlers of Britain, West Ger-
many, France and Holland.
