Nevertheless, there was ample room for free enterprise in foreign trade.

J. H. F. Turner, assistant gen- eral manager. Bank of Montreal. chairman of tire session. said his own foreign experience indicated "lack of aggressive selling activ- ity" by C sdians.

Mitchell Sharp, associate deputy minister. department of trade and commerce. said a great deal of the difficulty in promoting trade lay in persuading Canadian business man to take advantage of the faculties offered.

SHOULD HEED LESSON

Canadians. he added. were prone to l s c t u r e overseas countries. particularly the United Kingdom. about the importance of meeting the requirements of the Canadian market if they were to sell here He wondered whether Canadians practiced what they preached when they tried to sell abroad.

Mr. Sharp gave what seemed a generally optimistic picture for the future of Canadian trade. Brig. Roberts seemed to feel that cer- tain definite planning must be done if trade were to be main- tained. '

Mr. Sharp said better standards of living. now being sought by the world masses, could not be ob- tained without greater exchange of goods of surpluses among coun- tries. '

He looked to this influence to put

a brake upon back-sliding trends toward tariff barriers, although the futur course as the United States rams .ed III outstanding uncar- tsinty. It was true that the proportion of manufactured goods in Can- sds's sales to other countries. around 15 per cent. was little bet- ter than 35 years ago. but today's is per cent was ill per cent oi a much larger figure.

-The summerside Board of Trade last evening approved a resolution deploring the damage

caused by vandalism to the new rink at Summerside, and suggest- ed that steps be taken to protect the property from further destruc- tion.

This action followed discussion on the -subject which dealt with damage done to the Raceway Stadium which was built less than a year ago.

Recently windows have been shattered, overhead lighu broken, glass in the ticket window smash- ed, and at least two holes punch- ed in the hard asbestos aiding, one of which is large enough to permitientry to the rink. It was reported last evening that action was being taken yesterday to have the damage repaired.

Discussion was held on the In- dustrial Establishment Promotion Act Advisory Committee for the promotion of industrial establish- ment in P.E.I.

In this regard the board expres- sed their support of the program oi the newly established canning firm of Campbell and Burns in Bedeque.

The members of the board felt that the committee of the Depart- ment of Industry and Natural Re- sources should attempt some pro- motlonal work towards the estab- lishme it of more processing plants that would benefit the agricul- tural snd fisheries industrieh in this Province.

signals at the Arhett railway cros- sing near Albany, and the need for the placing of signs at Cape Toimentine showing the direction to the ferry,vwa.r discussed and re- ferred to a committee .for propriate action in each case.

The attention of the board also called to condition of shoulders of the road along the Borden-Summerside partk of the Trans-Canada Highway, w h i c h were reported to be in poor con- dition iri many places constituting a danger to highway traffic; and endangering the permanency of the pavement.

A report was given on the pro- gress being made in construction of the facilities on the new wharf. Additional switching for railway cars requested by the Board seems likely to be provided following an interview by a committee with Mr J. Watson MacNaught. M.P. Doors on the new warehouse are not frost proof, but will be replaced next year, and at this time it is thought that provision for heating will also be done next year.

Sonia of the board members thought that the matter of ex- tending the sea wall on the east side of the wharf to connect with the present concrete wall in front of the Hall Mfg. C0,, should be done to complete the appearance of the job and some thought that this might also 'result. in more puking space for autos.

The Tourist Information Bureau sponsored by the Board of Trade closed on September 15th after providing information to several thousands of tourists. This bureau is located at Road's Corner, about three miles east of summerslde.

frhs meeting last evening was presided over by the vice-president, Mr. John Mungall. and those tak- ing part in the various discusslo included the secretary, Harold Rodd, Dan Chan. Bill Young, Fred Bell Fred Blnghsm, R. B. nintop. Charles Linkletter. and Lloyd Gorrill.-8.

The first witness. Dr. .1. P. Kelly of Alberton, gave evidence that Peter Broderick had called at his office about 4 pm. on Sept 24 to discuss an,account and had re. quested a bottle of rubbing alcohol to rub his back. Said he had suf- fered fractures of both wrists in an accident and had been recom- mended to use rubbing alcohol. The doctor had refused to pre- scribe alcohol as Broderick was smelling of alcohol. He had pre- scribed s lmiment commonly known as oil of winter-green. On being shown a prescription by cpl. Warner he said it was the one he had issued. He said he was next it to see Broderick about five o'clock the following morning and had given the deceased a needle to quiet him down. He had conver- sation with the patient but the replies to questions were not sen- sible. that he was comatose. on being called again about 7 am. he found the patient dead. The same morning at 8 o'clock he was called to the home of

.Stephen Graves. Graves kept ask-

ing for gingeraie. There was a strong odour of wintergreen. He decided to remove patient to hos- pital. Despite treatment Graves' condition became steadily worse and he died about 4:15 in the afternoon. '

The doctor stated there was only I very small quantity of alcohol in oil of wintergreen. said winter- green affected the respiration and poisons the brain cells.

The next witness, Dr. . Brgnd.

, ler of Alberton, said he was called

to see Peter Broderick about six O'clock on the 23rd of Sept. Found him vomiting. Broderick said he had drank poison lotion which he had obtained on a prescription. The witness said he told Broderick the best thing to do was to call the doctor from whom he obtained the prescription. Said he and Dr. Shea had performed aut.opsy's on both bodies. Found no sign of vio- lence on either body. All internal organs normal with the exception of the bladder and gall bladder. Contents from stomach and other organs were sent to Charlottetown for lab tests. Lungs were not col- lapsed and there was no perfora- tion of the stomach. Dr. Bandier said most likely cause of death was something poisonous taken internally.
