Russia Admits Nuclear Bomb Testing Is Resumed

MOSCOW (AP) ~-—- The Soviet Union announced Thursday night it has resumed nuclear test blast- lng after a six-month suspension.

(The Soviet acknowledgement came within an hour after.Wash- ington announced detection of the second pair of Soviet blasts this week. The first were Tuesday).

Soviet Foreign Minister Gro- myko announced before the Sn preme Soviet March 31 the deciL sion to stop the tests.

At that time, a Tass statement Thursday night said, the Kremlin said that if the U5. and Britain failed to follow its example “the government of the USSR. would be free to act in the question of Soviet nuclear tests, bearing in mind the security interests of the USSR." ~ TAKE ADVANTAGE

Tass accused the United States and Britain of using the Sovie: test suspension to gain “the great- est possible military advantage for their side, thus ignoring the will of the peoples."

It declared:

“This is evidenced by the fact that precisely after March 31—- that is, the moment the Soviet Union suspended nuclea- 1 tests and called upon other coun.ries to follow suit—the governments of the United States and the United Kingdom undertook the biggest ever series of tests of atomic and hydrogen weapons.

“The United States alone has set off about 40 nuclear shots dur- ing this period.” Tess added:

“Considering this, the Soviet government can-not‘allow the se- curity interests of the Soviet state to suffer because of such actions of the United States and the United Kingdom."

The livestock situation remains good with excellent pasture and little call for the use of stored feed. In fact with a good hay ,crop stored in fine condition and our bumper harvest the feed si- tuation has inever been more fav- orable.

FARM FORUM

Meeting last Monday evening the Provincial Farm Forum com- mittee added three members to its number and re-ele'oted Mr. Charles Yeo as chairman. The secretary’s annual report for last season showed an increase in the number of forums and num- ber of reurports and attendance. Reviewed were plans for pro- motion and changes in staff and policy at the National level.

A meeting of the special Mari- time committee to be held in Pictou on Monday'will‘ consider assistance for those who will be helping organize Farm Forums this year. ‘ STABILIZATION

Since the Agricultural Stabiliz- ation Act was passed in J a-nuary 1958, a total of 21 farm products have been brought under the au- thority of the Agricultural 'Sta- biliza-tion Board. ‘Thes products range from butter to barley, from honey to hogs, from asparagus to apples, and cover most of these products that bring! the greatest percentage of returns to the Can- adian farmer. In this respect, it has become what is probably

\

gislation on the statutes.

Naturally an act so widely used will meet with varied reaction and the Canadian Federation of Agriculture intends to, if possible. gather the opinions of farm groups and farm people on the working of this particular leg- islation.

A special edition of the C.F.A. Bulletin carrying these opinions will be published for the purpose of informing everyone of farm thinking in the field of price sup- ports and price stabilibattion. SOCIAL SECURITY i

The C.F.A. is presently inter- ested in obtaining Provincial op- inion on matters {related to old age Tensions and social security. Specifically it would like to know what farm views are on contri- butory old age pension plans. which would be in addition to the present general plan.

FREIGHT INCREASES

As one of the biggest users of the railways agriculture has .a keen interest in any freight in- creases. -

In October 1957 when the C. F.A. appeared before the board it stated that farmers who had only about 8 per cent of the total Canadian income would be ask- ed to pay 36 per cent of the pro- posed increase.

The present request for 19 per cent if granted would add over 20 millions to the farm freight bill. For (hose farmers who live in the extremities of (he counlv ry (he increase is proportionally higher.

A comparison of the. distance

which products are hauled is in-

ture has a long haul and it is on these long hauls that‘the 19 per cent increase, if permitted. will be applied 100 per cent or nearly g) .

HARVEST FAIR . The exhibit of fruit, vegetables, cereals and fodder at the harvest fair was a real delight for thosei who appreciate good husbandry. A Combination of rural youth fair and the harvest exhibition fire a happy one and the twin ays provided infinite variety all fending to emphasize the devel- opment of rural youth, good live- stook and fine crops. The Prince Edward Island Dairymen's Association offered special prizes for hay and silage and offers its congratulations to the progressive winners of these awards. EDUCATION CONFERENCE

An event of importance planned for November 8 is the first Pro- vincial Conference on Education.

Education effects practically everyone in the province either as a student,’paren-t-taxpayer, or taxpayer. Among the sponsors of the Conference is the Federation of Agriculture which has always had an active interest in educa- tional matters. MARITIME MEETING

Prior to the FederaLProvin- cial Agricultural Conference to be held in Ottawa on November 12 and 13 a Maritime meeting of ministers, deputies and farm or- ganizatiin people will be held in Moncton on October 27. this meeting will be one of the rare occasions when department and farm organization people get to- gether to discuss matters of pol- icy both Federal and Ppovincial. POTATO PROBLEMS

A very large crop of potatoes in the United States is c "sing concern on the score of its effect on the Canadian market. Canad- ia-n production is within reason- able limits and can probably be handled by our own consumers. Recognizing that a very difficult situation may develop the Hort-i- cultural Council has called a, meeting in Ottawa for October 6] to consider what steps may be’ taken to improve the situation. Meetings are being held in each of the interested provinces to ga- ther information and to obtain recommendations for the Ottawa session.

WORKMEN’S COMP. Workmen's compensation cov~ ering occupational hazards is generally in effect in all provinc- es and offered on a variety of bases. Realizing the value of this kind of protection and that far too small a percentage of farm workers are covered the C.F.A. is undertaking a study of the dif- ferent provincial systems with the view of reporting (II what might be considered the most satisfactory on .
