Mr. Walthen A. Gaudet continues in office as sec- retary. Directors elected were: Prince County, J. B. Myrick and W. E. Jenkins; Queen's, Emmett Gallant and Jack Murphy; King's, 9suI.Ocusnt.and '1'. H. dinner: Members at large; .1. E. Burden. Wendell Graham and 5. H. Bur- hoe. Ex-officio msmb . L. L. Noonan and Eugene Gorman, Prov- incial Director of Fisheries.

Yesterday's meeting was held in the Queen Hotel. Retiring presi- dent L. L. Noonan in his annual address expressed his pleasure at the attendance of Mr. Gordon O'Brien, manager of the Fisheries Council of Canada. He reported the membership as well sustained and stressed the advantages of ai- filiation with the Counou which is composed of 16 fisheries organ- izations throughout Canada. He touched on the annual meeting in Ottawa and commented on the favourable impression made there by the strong representation from this Province including Hon. Mr. Cullen, Mr. German, Director of Fisheries, Mr. John B Myrick, Tig- nish. delegate, S. H. Burhoe, and President Noonan, who is an execu- tive member of ths'Fisheries Coun- cil. A

Regret was expressed that the Department of Fisheries had fail- ed to heed the request of the Fed- eration opposing a change in the lobster carapace measure f . An immediate survey following the devastating storm in May resulted in a full investigation by the Fed- eral and Provincial Governments and a programme of .aid to the fishermen by long term loans in- terest free was inaugurated.

"One of the most pressing prob-

lems facing the lobster industry, which is our big revenue producer, next to agriculture, is the matter of outside buyers from New Bruns- wick invading our shores and buy- ing lobsters away beyond market value. If this condition is not re- medied soon, it will eventually spell doom to the industry here, result- ing in the closing down of fac- tories, loss of labour to our fishing communities and a loss of revenue to the Province which will run into untold thousands of dollars." Mr. Noonan said. "Here is a con- dition that is slowly but surely psralyaifig our fishing industry and must be dealt with by our Depart- ment of Fisheries and our associa- tions at once if we are to survive." "Our fresh fish output of cod, hako and role has grown away be- yond expectation and the plant at Bouris serviced by dresser! has had a very successful year. Mackerel has been scarce with high prices being offered." Appreciation was extended in the report to Hon. Eugene Cullen and Mr. Eugene German for oo-opera- tion and assistance and to Mr. Walthon Osudct, secretary. 101' good advice and careful attention to duties.

as it was presented two years ago.'

"We Canadians bought Sl.80' Vvbrth of goods per person from the United States as compared with 10 cents worth they bought from us last year." said Mr. O'Brien "and anything done to retard the free flow of fish between the two countries would not be a good! move.

"stockpiles of cheese, butter and, other commodities must indicatel to us that our own market. must be cultivated more vigorously. The United States is spending millions in advertising and their beef pro- duction is increasing tremendously. We must educam Canadian people to eat more fish and a small start has been made in this direction on fillets. Fish on the Montreal mar- ket from Boston, which I saw re- cently, did not look right to me," he said. "We are so close to the fishing on this coast that no coun- try can compete with us if the situation is properly handled and the business fostered and encour- dged."

Hon. Mr. Cullen

I-Ion. Eugene Cullen spoke brief- ly stressing that his Department was glad to further any project designed to help the fishermen. "East of Sourls." the Minister said” "we have one of the best ground fishing areas in the Atlantic. We have demonstrated by very effec- tive operations on the part of the large draggers that there can be no doubt about this. We have also established the fact that smaller, 80 foot draggers, can be qually effective in shallow water and are quite safe, as has been proven on the Nova Scotia coast.

"The smoked herring industry at Mt. Carmel has been hlghly.suc- cessful and with the competent and experienced management there, we are confident for the future," the minister said.

Mr. Eugene Gorman in discuss- ing the situation generally pointed out the need for education along the lines of engineering, naviga- tion and other subjects to meet the requirements of large drsgger operations. "There is a career job for a great many young ainbitious' fishermen who follow these jobs through and to this end we expect- to ask the Minister of Education, Dr.-Frank Maclfinnon of P.W.C. and other euucatlonists to meet with the Fisheries Commission early in October to give such mat- ters consideration."

CHARLOTTETOWN

Warning Against Used Bags . For Potatoes v

The following warning to po- tato growers has been issued by the Provincial Department of Agricultura-

The practice of' gathering po- tatoes with used bags is a very dangerous practise. These bags, irrespective of what they may have been used for previously. may carry diseases which consti- tute a menace to the po- tato industry. Bags are collected by those who are engaged in this form of business over very wide areas. They may come from

centersswhere Ring Rot is abun-, dant, or many other serious dis-L

eases.

A boat of a loading at Charlottetown about a year ago, carried thousands of used bags which were to be dis- posed of in this area. This dis- posal was promptly checked and prevented. One could not tell where they were gathered-pos- slbly some from Europe, or from- other disease infected areas. if these bags had been distributed there was is serious danger of outbreaks of disease In our po- tato industry. Montreal ls a par- ticularly fruitful center for the accumulation of used bags. Many of them are employed in the feed industry, but one cannot tell just what they may have been used for previous to the carrying of feeds.

Incurrlng Grave Risk

In any event farm people are warned that they are playing with flre'when they are taking bags that come in from outside this Province, which have been utilized for other purposes. and using them for the handling of their potato crop. We have ex- perience in this Province already with outbreaks of Ring Rot which could be directly traced to used bags. An outbreak of Ring Rot means a heavy loss to the potato producer; the necessity of indemnification if there is money to indemnify; and a lot of hard, careful, detailed work and cost in the eradication of the disease. At the present time there is a stat- utory law which prevents the im- portation into Prince Edward Is- land of used potato and turnip begs. A few of these have filter- ed through this year, but the par- ties taking them in have been- duly prosecuted and proper pen- alties applied. Used bags for other purposes are not under these stringent regulations. but nevertheless should not be used indiscriminately unless they are under proper disinfection. Do not risk the health of the potato in- dustry by the careless use of utensils in handling the crop.
