Warniln Praise Of Minltlllsplay

"A wonderful display of mink and an excellent all-round show.' was the opinion expressed by John C. Molony of the Hudson's Bay Company at the conclusion of the 4th nnniinl live. mink show

and the 21st unniinl live fox show yesterday. Mr. Molnpy. who judgt-ti the

mlnks. paid special tribute to the sapphire class. Considering that

Islzintl breeders have bud only two years experience with the type, the results have been re- markable. he said.

Judging closed at 2.30 in the afternoon after intensive competi- lion. and when the total aggre- gate scores were compiled it was found that two exhibitors were tied for first place. They were George A. Callbeck of Summer- sitlc nnfl B. B. Jones of Bunbury. and these two gentlemen decided to spin a coin for the premier honour.

Culling correctly, Mr. Jones was the winner of the blanket donat- ed by the Hudson's Bay Com- pany. The competitor with the highest number of points in the Fox Classes for the previous two days was Ernest T. Mill of Ken- sington, who also received a blanket.

"This fine gesture on of the Hudson's Bay Company was deeply appreciated." Mr. W. R. Shaw, Secretary of the P. E. Island Fur Breeders Association said, "tilong with the loan of Mr. Molony as the judge."

Mr. Show also expressed satis- faction at the presence of Dr. E llandlc Boivness, director of fur animal research with the Toron- to Elevator Company. who as- slstcd Mr. Moleny with the judg- ing of the mink and was a great help to the breeders throughout the show during which he eon- dueted an educational address at the Vocational School and gave a peltlng demonstration. Dr. Bow- ncss also took photographs of the winning animals andi-their own- ers in all classes.

"It was generally agreed that this year's show was the finest ever, despite the depressed times." Mr. Shaw stated. "and inspires us to come back next year stronger than ever. It has on- couraged the breeders to main- taln basic stock and further tie-

Santa Makes Prelimi

santa Clous is coming to town. Yes Sir, he officially arrived

yesterday aftemon and will be comlng back to town every Tues- day and Friday until Christmas. Hundreds of youngsters watched him yesterday as he and his bobbing reindeer took a long ride through many of this city's streets. Of course it was a little different as there was no snow for his sleigh, but Santa easily solved that difficulty. He simply loaded the sleigh. reindeer and himself on a decorated float he used last summer and a modern tractor towed the whole thing along. Brought here by the express in- vitation of lIolman's big store he will visit the toy department there when he is in town so he can greet. all his little friends and hear them say "That's What I Want for Christmas." And Santa will

remember so

that when countless little eyes are opened wide on Christmas morning they will find under

their glistening Christmas Tree many of the things they mention- ed and perhaps a lot more that Santa. put there to bring joy to their hearts and prove that one day a year there truly is "Peace on Earth to Men of Good Will."

nary Visit To City

,..i-

A proposal for increases in ai- lowable axle weights and maxi- naum weights for trucks was con- talned in a brief presented this

week to the Provincial Govern- ment by the Maritime: Motor Transport Association. These vteights, the brief slated, would

conform with other Provinces.

They are proposed to lie allow- able only on the "black top" roads only and the contention of the Association was that with the ac- companying use of larger size tires there would be no increase in weight per square inch on the highways.

Present when the brief was presented were Premier .l. Waltcr Jones, I-Ion. Eugene Cullen, Mr. William MacKinnon. Mr. Gordon White and Mr. Eugene German. Offering the brief for the Associ- ation ii-ere Mr. Keith MaCKlnnon, Mr. Lloyd Enmnn and Mr. Douc- las Moffatt, its directors. The spokesman for them was Mr. W. J. Rusell, fleet salesman for the B. F. Godrleh Tire Company.

The five-point proposal is to establish 1. axle weights at 18.000 pounds. 2. to increase maximum gross weights on a 2-axle truck to .'lA,000 pounds.3, to increase maxi- mum gross weights on three-axle trucks to 32.000 pounds. 4, to in- crease maximum gross weights on single axle tractors and single axle semi-tralner units to 40,000 pounds. 5. to lrtcttase the maxi- mum gross weight on 3. single axle tractor and tandem axle semi- trailer unit to 50,000 pounds.

The brief said that this Prov- ince is on the threshold of sub- stantial industrial development. and

Government Receives Brief From Moiorjtansporl ASS,ll

that truck and rail competition from a rate and service point of view may well enable its primary producers to find markets which would otherwise not be open for our products.

It mentioned the economy of Canada as providing great freight advantages to the Central Prov- inces due to short hauls and said that the inequitable proportion of increased freight rates paid by Prince Edward Island reduces our purchasing power since more of our available dollars are spent for transportation charges.

The brief stated that trucking is now an important part of the economy of this Province with over 4,000 motor transport units being operated by public and priv- iite carriers.'

Members of the Association ex- pressed pleasure at. the reception they received and Mr. Russell lat. cr described it as "democracy in action."

According to delegates the As- sociation has noted the rapid de- velopment of the fish industry in Prince Edward island and its prospects for still lurther ex- pansion. However, they claim that it cannot be truly developed with- out fast, econornlc motor transport. They said that under present reg- iilat-ions here motor transport can- not haul fi;-h economically to the Boston-market.

Fish can be hauled to Boston in small trucks at present. but the cost is too high and it iii maln- taincd that a gross weight of 53,- 000,priuiids is necessary to take fish there rind permit marketing at the right. price.
