They criticized the gcvcrnmcntis plans for compensation as too general and suggested a yardstick
provides that. the payments will be based on reports of a board of valuators appointed by the fed- eral government.
The demand for committee in- vestfgation first came from M. J. Coldwell. C.C.F'.,leader, who said there seemed to have been "great negligence” on the part of those responsible for the delay in ob- taining a final diagnosis.
Cha rge Negligence
John Diefenbaker IPC - Lake Centret said the Federal Depart- ment had shown dilatoriness and negligence. Farmers in the af- fected area had been talking of
foot-and-mouth disease in No- vember and December. New cases were appearing while the out-
break stlll win as stomatitin. Hnmn Argue tCCF - Assini-, boiai said the department hadt fallen down badly.
John Charlton tPC - Brant Wenthworthl, a veterinarian, ask- ed why government veterinarians had not made tests for foot-and- mouth disease on the affected farms. The disease could have been determined in four, to sixt days instead of allowing 76 days
being diagnosed
to elapse. ' Mr. Gardiner said the emer- gency legislation, which gives
him power to order slaughter of, any animal where it is necessaryt to eliminate the disease, will be; retroactive to Feb. 18. It will be repealed on a date to be set byl the government. l Gardiner Explain: 1-lc ttold Ml” Charlton that Gov-l ernment veterinarians stationed in Saskatchewan were called to the was farm Dec. 2 last. They sent in report to Ottawa Dec. 7 and Dr. T. Childs. the department's veter- inary general. went to the infect- cd area Jan. 1'1. At that time; all thought that the disease was stomatitis.
The first infected material was brought to the department's re- search laboratories at Hull, Que., for examination and testing Feb. 16. Serum hiid t.o be obtained from the UK. before a definite diag- nosis could be made.
He said the Wass farm had been placed under quarantine Nov. 26, as was done in all cases of outbreak of animal diseases.
Mr. Diefcnbaker said he won- dered "how many days and hours would it take to get. serum from the United Kingdom?"
Instead of obtaining the serum, the Government had acted with a

and reasonable." Other Plane Announced
other plans announced by Mr. Gardiner to cope with the first outbreak of foot-and-mouth dis- ease in Canadian history:
1. A buffer mne - second line of defence against the scourge - wtll be erected to ban shipment of livestock from any point with- in 50 miles of the 10-municipality south Saskatchewan quarantine area around Regina. Animals within the buffer zone may be slaughtered only at the nearest packing plant.
2. In an effort to prevent pile- up of surplus livestock and meets ,on Canadian markets, Mr. Gard- llner urged farmers to keep more
long as possible. He said grading regulations of hogi will be chang- ed to pay Federal premium on quality production only on heavier weights. That will require longer periods of feeding before market-
ing.
3. Mr. Gardiner observed that a floor price on hogs already has been announced. No Federal pre- mium payments will be made on hog: delivered to plants where floor prices are not maintained. The premium is :2 A hundred-
concernlng control of prices and marketing. However, Mr. Gard- ,lncr indicated that if such action is required. the government take. any steps required "at the short- est possible notice.”
6. At. a press conference fol- lowing his announcements, Mr. Gardiner said steps are being
taken to prevent a possible car- rier of the foot-and-mouth dis- ease virus from coming into Can- ada. A boatload of immigrants now on its way from Europe will stop at Montreal where the im- migrants will go through a. decon- tamination statlon. He thought it possible that a sterilization sta- tion may be established at Halifax and that the immigration re- gulations may be changed. He gave no further details. Current- 'ly, immigrants arr. given health tests. but their effects are not do- contaminated.
Meanwhile, Willi Bi-uentjen. 20- year-old German immigrant sus- pected of carrying the virus to the Western farm where the first outbreak was uncovered Nov. 26 last, is iitlll undergoing tests at the nearby 1-lull, Qua. agricul-

Mr. Caldwell suggested there were other persons who should get. compensation. such as dairy farmers and those who were pre- vented from shipping their grain out of the quarantine area. Losses also were being suffered by stock- men who could not ship their ttle to market.

homes. and mailer families. The district was, originally, part of the section of land called Browns' Creek. It was later called Whlm Road Cross. About thirty-five years ago. the present name was agreed upon by the citizens, many of whose parents were natives of Kilmuir, Isle of Skye. It is inter. esting to note that only two farms in Kilmuir are atlll owned and operated by direct descend- ants of the first pioneer owner: however. several others are owned by indirect descendants: also a few direct descendants still live in the district.
"In these days of speedy mech- anized transportation. radio, tele- phone. electricity, and other mod- em conveniences, it is difficult to visualize the hardship and priva- ticn endured by our pioneer an- cestors.

lottctown where the remaining weary passengers were nfely landed. The brig crossed the At- lantic in thirty-one days. Tho large ship, whose captain was a poor mariner, took eight weeks on its zlg-zag journey. Nine of the four hundred passengers on this ship died during the voyage and were buried at sea. Four or five babies were born on board ship. A number of these passengers settled in this district. Nearly all of the farms along the South aide of the present Commercial Cross were taken up. Others settled in the present districts of Vallcyflelcl, Bcllevue. Grand River (Dundas area), Cardigan and High Bank, also some of them took up home- steads in a district west of Char- lottetown.
