Citizenship Minister Backs

Middleman In

BOSTON (CP) —- Citizenship Minister Fairclough of Canada Tuesday stood by the middleman in the retail industry controversy over price spreads.

She told the Boston Conference on Distribution that criticism of the middleman — wholesaler or distributor—over the spread in price between that received by the producer and that paid by the consumer seldom takes every- thing into account.

“From time to time, particu- larly when retail prices are ris- ing shahply, the distribution sys- tem comes under heavy criticism. Protests are frequently made to the effect that distribution costs are out of proportion to the ser- vices performed.

“Suoh criticism seldom takes into account the complexity of the distribution system and the variation in costs that arise from the ditfering nature of products that flow through the system,” she said.

HONORED BY CONFERENCE The famed international forum, holding its 30th conference here, Monday nominated Mrs. Fair- cloug-h to its hall of fame. Mrs. Fairclough inheraddress noted an increasing trend .to- wards integration of marketing institutions in Canada, with both larger retailers and producers as- suming more and more market- ing functions. The result was a decline in the relative importance of the independent retailer and wholesaler. . Whether complete integration and elimination of middlemen was desirable was 1le to the cons

Duplessis Says Rumor ’Ma-Iicious’

QUEBEC (OP) — Premier Du- plessis said Tuesday a published report forecasting his retirement from politics for reasons of health was “not inspired by solicitude for truth nor by a desire to be loyal.” '

During a brief press conference Mr. Duplessis said his attention had been drawn to what he de- scribed as a “rumor of which the least that can be said about it is that it is malicious.”

After greeting the newspaper men in his office, Mr. Duplessis read from a prepared statement his comments on the published report.

Duplessis said the "insult- ing and reprehensible tactics” of the opposition leaders “are inex- cusable, but can be explaine ."

From 1396 to 1957, he said, Que- bec Liberals held the reins of power either in Quebec or Ot- tawa. But since 1957 they were not in power in either govern— ment.

“The thirst for power and the numerous unsated appetites now explain, without excusing them, the rage and the disloyal and rep— rehensible tactics of the provin- cial opposition and its leaders.”

ConlerAs Gun Duels Coninue

By GENE KRAMER

TAIPEI, Formosa (Am—State Secretary Dulles and President Chiang Kai-shek headed into new talks today while fresh artillery duels blazed in Formosa Strait.

Today’s conferences followed three meetings between Dulles and Chiang Tuesday, the day Dulles arrived on his Formosa missmn.

Nationalist defence spokesmen said the Chinese Communists fired 6,626 shells at the Quemoys in the 12 hours ending at 6 a.m. today. The Nationalists fired back, using 8-inch howitzers and other guns moved to the island outposts during the ceasefire the Reds broke Monday.

By Nationalist count, the Com- munists had fired 21,507 rounds at the offshore islands in the period from 4 pin. Monday to 6

' a.m. today.

Following Tuesday’s talks his tween Dulles and Chiang, a spokesman said the whole politi- cal and military situation in the Formosa area was reviewed. In reply to a question, he said it was possible the two discussed possible resumption of U.S. war- ship convoys for supply ships to Queinoy.

"Policy Plans‘

Be Revealed

MONIC'I‘ON (OP) — The presi- dent of the Canadian Construction Association, Harold J. Ball of Kitchener, Ont., Tuesday called for an early announcement of fed- eral government road - building policy to enable provinces and contractors to plan their Work.

Mr. Ball, starting a four-day visit to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, told the Moncton Construc- tion Association the federal gov- ernment’s roads-to—resources pro. gram is welcomed by the CCA.

He suggested a federalprovin. cial road program based on fed- eral grants for improvement of

Canada’s main highway network;

an auxiliary joint program for international connections, access roads, park approaches and the elimination of railway crossings.

Road administration should re- main with the provinces and their use of federal aid remain op- tional, he said. The coordination of plannin , financing and con- structing roads of national im- portance would be the responsi- bility of a national highways or- ganization.

Mr. Ball said a lack of land serviced with water and sewer facilities is a greater problem in low-cost home building than con- struction costs or availability of mortgage funds.

BUY RED BALL BREWERY

SAINT JOHN. N.B. (CP)-Col. S.C. Oland, president of Oland and Son, Itd.,. Halifax, announced Tuesday night the acquisition of the controlling interest in Red Ball Brewery Ltd. of Saint John. Name of the brewery has been changed to Oland’s Brewery Ltd.

Commenting on a statement made by Hon J .W. Monteith, Fed eral Minister of Health and Wel- flaire, when he referred to Hospital Insurance in an address to the Charlottetown Rotary Club this week, Hon. A. A. MacIsaiac, Pm- vinciial Minister of Welfare and Labor, had the following to say:

“I completely agree with Mr. Monteith who said that a great dealoftimeisneededfortheim- plementation of a proper Hospital Insurance plan. His advice to take as much time as possible for a thorough study of all aspects of the proposed scheme before putt- ing it into effect should definitely be followed.

“This is particularly true in the case of Prince Edward Island. Here we have achieved an envi- able record/in the matter of ade- quate hospital facilities. Our hos- pitals are among the finest in Canada and our medical services are as good as any. In any new plan, we must take every precau- tion to guard against deterior- ation of our present satisfactory services and insure that any alter- nate arrangement is superior.

ONE OF FIRST

“Prince Edward Island was one of the first of the provinces to join Canada’s Hospital Insurance plan. When the federal scheme needed a sixth province before it could be instituted, we announc- ed our intention to institute such a program thus mala'nlg it pos- sible on a national basis. Now it is up to us to make sure our people get the greatest possible benefit from this Federal-Provincial ar- ramgement.

“There is, however, one aspect of this whole matter whidi may be misunderstood. There seems to be an impression abroad that Hos- pital Insurance is free or that it will cost very little. This is far from being true. The cost of finan- cing a Hospital Inmnoe plan of thktypewillbequitehlghm instance, in Nova Scotia it is estimated it will cost approxi- mately $5,500,000 manly. Esti- mates of the cost in New Baum- wick run in the vicinity of $50 per family per year and it is under-

stood the government there is considering imposing a health tax on top of the existing sales tax to defray the cost.

TO BE COSTLY

"Here in Prince Edward Island the expense of operating a Hos- pital Insurance plan may well be higher than in most provmce.‘ s. Such may be expected in a pre- donunantl' y rural provmce' where many segmenti s of our population are far removed. from hospitals and near-by medical attention. Patients living far from doctors

Hospital Insurance Cost To Be High, Says

M . . must often be brought to hospital for treatment and this in par- ticularly true in winter months due to the uncertainty of roads and weather. In addition, the basic per capita cost would be higher because of our limited population.

"Therefore the whole question of Hospital Insurance here must be the subject for a searohhig analysis before implementation and the Federal Minister stated, it deserves a maximum of time to insure that a proper plan is formulat .”

Wounde'ct'Cop Dies, Leaves Behind Mystery

NEW YORK (AP) — Patrol- man James McDerimott died of bullet wounds Tuesday, leaving behind the mystery of why he shot four men to death in a broadlway bar.

McDenmott, 34-year-old veteran of 10 years on the force with a good record, walked into the Pic- a<Rib restaurant early Sunday and shot down the four men with- out a word. One was believed to be a stranger to him.

The berserk cop was mowed down by police bullets and had been in critical condition in hos- pital. He did not regain conscious- ness long enough to be questioned about his motive for the slayings.

McDermott had been barred from the Pic-a~RiIb six months ago after boisterous behavior.

Lou Oliman, owner of the rest- aurant said the patrolman’s brief and fatal appearance early Sun- day was the first time he had been in the restaurant since then.

Eisenhower Campaigns For New US Labor Laws

Former President Truman Bangs At Economic Issue

NEW YORK (AP) —— President Eisenhower campaigned Tuesday for new labor laws to eliminate corruption among union leaders. Former president Truman, bang- ing away at the economic issue, said the recession is not over and won’t be as long as the Republi- cans are running the U.S.

The two spoke at opposite ends of the U.S. in their bid for votes in the congressional elections Nov. 4.

Eisenhower addressing Republi- can workers in San Francisco, ac- cused the Democrats of scuttling his efforts to fight trade union corruption and of fostering a dangerous drift toward bureau- cratic government.

Truman appeared at a Demo. cratic rally in New Castle, Pa. “we have had five years of Re- publican neglect and abuse of the working people,” he said.
