Sabre leis Over Ciiy This Morning

The possibilities of having a clear view of the Sabres as they fly over Charlottetown at 9.35 this morning was indicated by a late report on the weather last. night. This unusual formation was in Summ ” on Monday and flying from the airport in the City will be a very brief "chore" indeed.

Viewed from the standpoint of a horse race. the fast-jet menu will Idbver the. . sec, that is, yh c it would use aglw trotter to go smiis. ' M? -

Residents between Bunirnersidc and Charlottetown will really see these Jighters at their best, unless they throttle down. which will be necessary when flying at a lower altitude over Charlottetown.

The world's record speed of 050 miles per hour is held by this type of machine, under English guid- ance. The-R. O. A. F. fighting squad- rons in Koees. fly Sabres of this model.

Under favourable conditions. the flight of those remarkable mach- ines should be a memorable one for observers in this Province.

To Launch Flounder Fishery

Basis in PEI

Although the fishing of flound- ers in this Province has never been done on a. comma ' l basis

efforts will be made this summer to organize the industry. Recently Hon, Eugene Cullen. Minister of Industry and Natural Resources, and M11 P. A. Murnaghan. Deputy Minister. visited st. Mary's Bay. in the Vicinity of Dig . N. 8.. to examine some of the aller boats

in ill! ra.

the. so of. lob- stcrvfishirig hastens; ones in use in the Nova scotia centre am as feet long and are equipped with small flounder drags. They use an ordinary truck engine with a transmission t.alceoff.. A mail winch is mounted directly over the engine and powered by the take- off. Towing lines run from the winch to two small angle irons set on each side of the stern of the boat and a mast is stopped just alsesd of the engine with a boom long enough to reach out over the stern and raise the drag net. These boats, it is stated. can fish either inshore or off shore to depths of 20 fathoms and generally haul in as much as 2,000 pounds of fish per drag.

Departmental officials here are definitely interested in this type of boat and equipment as they feel that with the expected devel- opment of fresh and frozen fish the boats will bring a new type all fish with a real market appeal. Flounder: have not been mar- keted here commercially in any quantity, but are is solid source of revenue to fishermen in many other areas. it is believed that with the new type of fishing equip- ment island fishermen will be able lo introduce this desirable fish to householders and it is believed that fiounders are available in large quantities in Island waters.

To Boost Ceilings On

s Allowance

ler rejecting the perennial Oppos- ition bid for a permanent commons committee on veterans affairs. in- uoduccd a bill to amend the Vet- erans Allowances Act to do these things:

i. Boost to 350 A month from I40 the maximum allowance payable to a single veteran or widow; to' 090 from 370 the maximum for a married recip- sent.

1. Establish a new basis for outside income under which a recipient can earn as much as possible on a monthly basis without hurting his allowance. In effect, it could eliminate the calling on outside income for many heady veterans.

I. For those to whom officials decide they still apply, the cell- ings on outside income actually will be smaller. Under the ex- isting setup. a single ipient can earn an extra 0125 a year. a married roolpisot 0250 before his allowance is cut. The new amounts would be also for both.

By Willard ll. Mobley

WiA&riING'K)N. April N --(AP) -A kderal judge today voided President Truman's seizure of the strike-threatened steel industry and the vanguard of 650.000 C. I O. steelworkers at once began go- ing out on strike. U S. district Judge David A. Pine. in a. biting opinion, ruled the Truman, aeieure was "without authority in law" or the con- stiiution. He struck at arguments that the President has broad "in- herent" powers authorizing the seizure. saying that for the courts to agree to such an argument "would undermine public confid- ence in the very edifice of govern- ment as it is known under the constitution."

The judge announced that he was issuing an injunction ordering the government to give the mills back to their owners.

Union Acts Quickly

The government was ready to try for a higher court order can- celling out the district court de- cision. but the 650,000 C. i. O.- Unitcd Steelworkers did hot wait -the strike the government seized the mills to head off started. President Philip Murray of the union said in Cleveland the men had "no alternative but to cease work immediately" and within one hour pickets were out and fur- mass were being shut down

one almost certain result of the court ruling is an historic test in higher tribunals of just how much "inherent" power the Presi- dent has in a period of national emergency. And the findings could -though they probably will not- bring an ultimate decision on whether the judiciary can control the executive.

steel Embargo

The government A immediately clamped an embargo on shipments of steel from warehouses in pro- ducers of civilian-type goods and to foreign countries.

The national production author- ity said the freesc of supplies will give the agency time to determine whether any steel on hand in warehouses should be diverted from civilian consumption to mil- itary use.

UITAWA. April 19 - (AP) -- Agriculture Minister Gardiner to- day descirbed as the "worst' yet a new outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Bouth Saskatchewan.

Since the disease first was diag- nozed in February 1.000 head of livestock have been destroyed. The latest outbreak involves 123 cattle which will be killed. There may be others.

The new attack of the virus as- sumed an ominous tone when it was learned that 24 head of cattle from the infected herd: near wey- bin-n. 75 miles southeast of Regina, had been sent to a community pas- iure. if they show symptoms of the disease, cattle with which they have been in contact also may be de- stroyed.
