Labor Congress

(Canadian Press)

SAINT JOHN. Aux. lit-Resolutions urging the governments of Quebe. and tnc Martime Provinces to enact legislation in order to bring about old age pensions. were passed by del- egates at the Trades and Labor Con- gress, in progress here, today. Those responsible for the resolution pointed out that inasmuch as the people of Canada as s. whole are direct con- mibutors to the funds required for the payment bf the pensions, provin- ces which did not obtain these benefits were being discriminated against. There was little discussion, with many resolutions along the same lines being adopted unanimously by the con- vention. Today's session was a. short one, as delegates are to be taken for a sail up the Saint John River this after- noon and will return to the city late tonight. A possibility that the de- liberations would conclude on Friday night, instead of Saturday, is for- seen, following an announcement by President Tom Moore that an effort will be made to speed the work through in order to let delegates re- turn in their home for Labor Day. Night sittings will be held ii neces- sary, Mr. Moore said. The balance of the morning was taken up by the fraternal delegates, John B. Haggerty, Washington.

About a Settlement.

THE HAGUE. August lie-Agree-

hlocked adoption of the Young plan for three weeks was reached lust ai- ter midnight by the six powers who called the conference. Details of the agreement were giv- en out by the British delegation. The French placed a slightly differ- ent interpretation on them. but it was understood that in the main the agreement gave the British substan- tially ‘i0 per cent. of their demands in money, while other concession were made to them on deliveries in kind. - Among the last was agreement by Italy to buy an addition 1.000.000 tons of coal annually for the state railroads on the reparations account. The agreement was s. compromise. The British sacrificed 8,000,000 marks of the 40,000,000 they demanded in addition to amounts attributed to them under the Young plan. They had asked for about $11,530,000 ad- ditionsl and obtained about $9.530,- 000. An unbroken session from 5 o'clock last evening to midnight with only sandwiches and coffee to sus- tain the delegates wasnecessary to bring-agreement out of the seem- impasse.

(Special to the Guardian) OTTAWA, Ont. Aug. zit-Paul Reading, special correspondent or the Southam papers. has been making a special survey of the Maritime Prov-

pears a copyrighted despatch which has a special interest for Prince lld- ward Island. By permission the cor- respondent of The Guardian is able to send the portion relating to the ‘at’. er, as follows.

"The Maritimes were once describ- ed to me as "an economic impos- sibility." The view is not uncommon, and two arguments in support of it are well worn because they are easy. One frequently hears these provinces lightly sentenced to obscurity be- cause they have no unexplored nat- ural resources, and because of their geographical position. The most rtriking thing about such parlor slates-

The opening business session will be held in the Board oi Trade rooms at 10.30. followed by a general meeting at 2.30 p. m. at the Exper’ ‘ l Farm. An exceptionally large atten- dance is anticipated. and both meet- ings will be productive or much vai- uable information and helpful sug- gestions with regard to the commer- cial life of ihe Province.

ISLAND PROGRESS SINCE CAR FERRY

a

“Citizen” Correspondent SeesJJ Wonderful Progress In Garden»

~--->- "-5 WPl-illllon has been decim- Jls filnoe 189i. but its production is mst as steadily increasing. The Is- land can describe its sources in two words-land and fisheries. It has no mines, no forests, no power. Eighty five per cent of its output comefoff the farm, and seven per cent from the ses, chiefly in the form 0g 16p. stars. Fifteen years ago it used h; lay in six months’ supply of every- .hing it needed for the winter because 1r. was entirely cut off from the main- and. once the ice came into North- lmbfirlfllid Strait. It could grow good DOW-toes but there was no profit in them. because the buyers had thr Island at their mercy every autumn; i‘. must sell its potatoes for what ii could get while the sirsit remained open. or allow them tn freeze after it closed. You could want no clearer illustration oi restricted resources and unfriendly geography.

Prince Edward Island is the ex- treme cl-so in Canada, yet in 1935. when depression still hung‘ heavily over the Maritimes, its 81.000 people were responsibe for nearly eighty per eene of the total wealth produced in Canada that year. The explanation is that Prince Edward Island has been adapting itself to its circum-

gressive. Its first real plunge into modernity was in 1915 when it per- mitted motor cars to operate along certain specified roads three days a week provided they did not pass‘ a church with the engine running on prayer meeting nights. But it has

been swimming with the cisrrenl ever since. It is about twenty years since it made its first 811st expansion in fox farming, about ten years since it went in seriously for potatoes, pre- vicusly it had been s senml farm- iQ community. selling its products largely to the Cape Breton market. Now it has between four and five million dollars involved in some six hundred fox farms, and it produces about 1.500.000 dollars worth of fur a year. Its potato crops nets it an- other six million dollars. its poultry and egg! two and a quarter million. in dairy products three and a hsif million.

The quality of its products. is the interesting point, however. It be- weeks a high degree 0r specialisation on a balanced scsie. Every potato sold off the Island now is certified seed. Its eggs are all inspected and graded and shipped through egg circles; and they have won a recognised place in the British market. Its cattle are entirely free from tuberculosis.
