French heart Not in war; iliul Equipment poor

RIOM, Unoccupied Eunice. March l'l—(AP)--Two of Frances highest Generals told the Riom court today that the countrys heart was not in the war with Ger- many and, even if it had been. French equipment was no match for the Nazi military machine.

They were the first 0f Silver“ hundred witnesses expected to be culled to testify on their versions of why France was defeated.

“Youth had turned against us, There was little good material for officers’ academies. There were pacifist and anti-militsrist cam- paigns. The press was not at all fi-iendly_

“Then there was the general at- titude that the army was a costly instrument for which there was no further use."

Claims Allied Warships were Vastly outnumbered

LONDON, March l7 —(CP) —Tlie joint British-United States com- munique which announced the loss of l2 and probably 13 allied war- ships in the losing sea battle oi Java. was criticized in Parliament today on two Oppoelte counts-for not giving adequate emphasis to the odds against which the United Nation; warships fought, and for listing their losses so fully as to give "valuable and reliable infor- mation to the enemlh"

Lord Strabolgi, citing figures he said were given him by Premier Peter s. Gerbrandy of the Neth- erlands government. told the 1101M of lords that the five allied cruis- eiI, seven destroyers and one sloop were opposed in the war‘: greatest naval encounter by 99 JBDBMN warshi 14 cruisers, so destroyers. five srcraft carriers and 5 marines.

The Health Depart/merit was con- gratulated on expanding the Sen- etorluim maintenance service and the additional allowance to less active cases outside the institution.

Mir. MlcIs leased to notc that steps will be tugen to improve the standard qualifications requir- ed for school tecchers and that remuneration will hs: furnished on a more satisfactory scale.

He suggested that the ode limit be reduced and that consideration be given to the matter of cheaper school books.

‘Ihe loyalty and devotion of Canada and of Prince Edward Island. the smallest of its pro- vinces, have been demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt in our war effort, Mr. Mclsaac be- lieved. He was sorry our people are not fully conscious o: the mag. niflcent art Canada has played and is paying. ‘This is due partly to the fact that the Dcmlnlqn 3“-

do not want our enemies to have too much infri-rmtion, but it can be said that three classes are contributing to our war effort. First are the men 5nd women who have enlistvd in the service forces 5600110. the people. rich and poor, who have contributed to the pur- ithase of Victory Bonds and to charitable purpcses. He referred in this connection to the magnificent showing of King's County. with the largest. percentage over and above the amount get for m“ district.

Mr. P. A. Mclaaae, mover o! the draft address in reply to the speech from the Throne in the Leglslatu e yesterday.

mary producer, has been akcd the Price Board to exert every effort to supply e commodi- ties-dalry products, poultry pro- ducts and pork products. The first two have been very well maln- tained. but 1t has been stated that there is a possibility this year of a ah of bacon product; for overseas of some 80,000,300 pounds.

Th Mr. Molscac emphasized, ls s. matter for serious considera- tion. Our minimum quzta for Can. ada ls between 7,000,000 and 8,000,- 000 hogs. We are faced with a possible shortage of 2.300.000. It is up to us to increase our out/put to fill the quota required of us by the United Kingdom. The Western Provinces have increased their production; n1‘.- Province has not. yet done so, and there has men an actual decrease in Nova Scotla and Quebec.

Although we are providing for the present in large measure. we must look to the future-the post war pericd. Mr. Mclsaac said. This period will be a testing ground for civilization. and co-operailon will pla a large part in rebuilding so- cle y. “let it. be sold 0f 11s when victory comes, that we did every- thing posslble for our Province and our country."

MR. T. M. LINKLETTER

In seconding the Address, Mr. Thomas M. Linkletter. 31d District of Prince, ebo referred to the pass- ine of the Duke of Connaught.

The war. he continued. is the issue uppermost in the minds of ell our citizens at this time. The ene- my propose to take from us not only what we have gained by our labors. but the very liberty which, to us, is life itself. We have lately been joined in this great struggle by the United States, which, like the British Commonwealth, was caught unprepared; yet this com- bination, with its vast resources marshalled and coordinetcd, will be unbeatable. Reference was also made to the encouraging successes of the Russian armies.

The Federal Government, Mr. Linklettcr said, was to be congrat- ulated on preparing the ground for the training of so many of our sturdy young men. Without them, the Jap. Italian and German hordes would flock to this country and settle in numerous good homes.

"At this time," he continued, “we may be thankful as e. farming com- munity for prices being received for our fann products. Some of the main requirements of the war de- partment are bacon. eggs, butter and cheese. For these items we are receiving a better price than obtain- ed for years past, and the produc-

is gettin a fair wage for his labor, somet in; that has not hep- pened, to him for some time.

“Nevertheless I regret to say that fanning at. present is at a vciy low ebb. Although prices are good. there are a great many farmers who are not in a position to take advantage of these prices owing to lack of facilities for feeding hogs. Therefore they are not rais 11g the number o: hogglilléy should feed.

"The same condition obtains in the matter of raising poultry and eggs. In a week of prospectlnl; throughout the country last fall out of about twenty formers eight- een had places for hogs that were neither convenient for feeding nor in fact fit. to keep hogs in. Of course these were not the very best class of farms that I visited. The condition of the poultry business is about the some, smaller flocks than should be kept and feeding and cleaning facilities.

"We have been pleased with the prices received for lobsters last year. especially in the latter part of the summer. Canned lobsters sold as high as thirty dollars a case st the end or the season. whim was ten dollar; per case more than they brought on May first. We believe that this was due ln part to the advertising campaign put on by the department of Fisheries in the summer of i940. The catch es fsr as we can learn in 194i was s lit- tie lower than was expected. A sire limit for the taking of lobsters from the water was placed on the fish at six and one-half inches. ’l‘hls could only be viewed as e all?!) toward raising it. to a reason- able level at some future time. f am pleased tobeable tcsay the De- partment of Fisheries promises to rsisethellmit for lobsters fished to at least seven inches this coming year. The catch of lobstcrs has dropped in the last fifty-six years. about a million pounds a year over the whole lobster fishing area of Con- ada, from 83 million pounds in 1886 to about 20 million pounds in i940.

"ThQ accident to the Carferry "Charlottetown" is most regrettable. it is about as serious a thing as could happen to this rovince. and the prospect of salvo ng it is very mnoto. The beat authorities we
