J. And S. Variety Store At S’Side Opens In New Location
Yesterday morning marked the opening of the new J and S Variety Store in their new build- ing recently constructed on Sum- mer Street.
The J and S Variety Store first opened for business in 1950 on Water Street in part of the store now occupied by the MacCaus- land Furniture Co. Ltd., in 1952 the firm moved to the corner of Water and Summer previously occupied by the Provincial Bank. This site was converted into a highly modernized store catering to the ‘requirements of young people from tots to teens.
In the disastrous fire of Feb- ruary 6th., their entire stock and equipment was lost but within the short space of six weeks a new building was erected and the J and S Store is now once more back in business on Summer
1,200 feet and is the first of its kind to be constructed in town — a type known as a rigid arch con- struction. It has two fitting rooms and a commodious stock room at the rear. Counters are finished in birch and they as well as the removable shelves around the ’store were all built by Mr. Lester Linkletter and his staff under the supervision and

they would see that this debt was cancelled. Well they have been in power for eight months but we still have to pay one fifth of that amount this year to the Federal treasury.”
Mr. MacDonald made brief reference to the increase in pen- sions to the old age assistance, the blind and disabled. “From the talk that you hear around you would think the Federal Gov-
ernment alone was doing this
when the facts of the caseare that we in the Provincial Gov- ernment pay one half this cost plus the cost of administration. When we are giving credit let us see that all who deserve credit, get it”.
The Provincial Treasurer stat- ed that from November 1 until March 31 the cost to the Provin- cial Government will be $150,000 and for the next year the amount budgeted; for this purpose is over
i half a million dollars. FISHERMAN’S INSURANCE
Another point raised by Mr. MacDonald was the fact that 2,000 fishermen in Prince Edward Is- land are receiving unemployment insurance amounting to nearly $50,000 per week.
“I think the merchants of this Province in these fishing areas can give you some idea of what this $200,000 a month means coming into their communities."
“Let none forget that it was a Liberal administration that was responsible for getting this legis- lation through and no small
amount of credit is due Mr. Wat- son Macnaught who was then as-

INCREASED CATCHES
In noting the increase in drag- ger catches 80,000 lbs. in 1950 to nine million pound in 1957, Mr. MacDonald said it was not the intention of the Government to interfere with or injure the chan- ces of an existing plant by start- ing a second plant at Souris.
He said the only objective they had was to see that there would be adequate facilities to look after all the catch and to assure the operation of at least one plant should something happen the other.
Mr. MacDonald noted that of the millions of dollars worth of fish sold each year more than 70 per cent is exported to the States. He emphasized the importance of retaining this important mar- ket, noting, “If anything should happen to the American market I do not know what would happen to the fishing industry of Can- ada,” he added. -

is readily seen it will fluctuate more than a non-perishable pro- duct.
“The speculative interest in a perishable article has always been greater than in any other com- modity. Potatoes have ranked foremost as a speculative com- modity in the past and will con- tinue to be‘ so.in the future. It is only reasonable to assume that there will be considerable

sider whether he should sit tight or sell, and that speculative in- terest will continue to permeate every. phase of the movement right through to the consumer.
"The future market for the present crop should be, and is, anybody’s guess, but if one were
strong stable market for the rest of the shipping season, as Prince
Edward Island potatoes are‘ en- joying a much wider distribut- ion, to a greater number of con-

to take a survey of the stocks on .hand and where they are located, also the prospect of the new crop coming on our market in the next six or eight weeks, an analysis of such would show that the sup- ply is, and should be for the next six weeks, on the whole, less than the demand, and if market-
fluctuation resulting from this
ed in an orderly manner should result in a profitable deal to the grower for the remainder of the season. ,;
