SUMMERSIDE m At dusk last evening the C.G.S. Saurel, , which had spent the afternoon ‘ breaking a path through the ' harbour ice, escorted the freigh— ter Ebaaa from the Summerside Marine Wharf, into Northum- ' berland Strait enroutc to Souris where it is hoped the balance of the cargo can be completed.
Plagued by almost a week of low temperatures which pre- vented loading operations and steadily thickened the ice in the harbour, only 29.000 of the intended 70,000 bags had been ‘ loaded when concern of the shippers for the departure of a the ice-bound ship, caused them . to seek assistance from the E Saurel in an endeavour to free ‘1 the ship. ,
The 41,000 bags still in stor- age warehouses at Summerside will now have to be shipped by rail to Souris at a reported rail cost of 27 cents a bag. One of ' the shippers concerned said last evening that this cost was only , four cents a bag less than the rail cost for shipment to Hali— ‘~ . fax. it is said that if the cargo

SPECIAL TITLE
By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CPI — The tough core of Commonwealth import curbs against Canadian goods is beginning to crack and officials estimate a big chunk of these post-war restrictions might be swept away in 1959.
After progressively stripping most of her less vital curbs, Britain took what Canadian ex- perts considered was a major step last Sept. when she elimin- ated restrictions on salmon, newsprint and machinery from the dollar area. such as Canada and the United States, and pledged to start stripping curbs on consumer goods next year.
This action, taken at the Com— monwealth economic conference at Montreal, was accompanied by
‘an invitation that other Common. wealth groups in the sterling area should follow to meet the Cana- dian appeal for less discrimina- tion for Canadian prcducts in Ocumonwealth markets.
Australia soon after announced removal of curbs on chemicals from Canada and the U.S., and New Zealand disclosed her re~ strictions would be reduced gen- erally in 1959.
N ow Malaya has come through with a decision that starting with the new year. 23 categories of goods—from synthetic clothing to trucks and buses —— would be freed from controls on imports from dollar-area countries.
The Malayan government, in announcing this Wednesday, indi- cated the step was a result of th e Commonwealth conference
C
Commonwealth C urb‘s On Canadian Goods Easing
and hinted that further steps may be taken later.
Same crumbling of the curbs
among United Kingdom colonies,
including the West Indies federa- tion, is expected by Canadian of- ficials early in 1959.
And in addition some other ad- vantages may ,develop from a
new Canadian - Australian trade
agreement to be negotiated at anberra in January or Febru- ary.
Canadian authorities said they will keep pressing for further re~ ductio-ns of the import quotas, arguing that the reason for this trade discrimination — a critical shortage of dollars in the sterl- ing area—had disappeared a lot faster than the discrimination it- self. Offi-cials are pleased with progress so far.

Japanese Firms Are Annoyed By Tariff Threats
brmhwu (CPl—Japan-ese tex- tile exporters said Thursday that steep tariff increases proposed by Canadian dress manufacturers are “startling” and "unbeliev- able" and warned they may boomerang in the two-way street of international trade.
The increases proposed by the Montreal Dress Manufacturers Guild “would set Canada apart with probably the highest tariffs for silk and synthetic textile prod- ucts in the world,” said a Japa- nese brief to the Canadian Tariff Board.
The guild brief represents both Toronto and Montreal dress and sportswear producers, bulk of the Canadian industry. The tariff board, continuing a series of hearings into textiles and textile products, c o n c1 11 d e d sessions Thursday on man-made fibre fab-
