Minister Backs Ruling Of Prices Support Board Re

Potato Price

Comment By Mr. J. W. Boulter

Interviewed last night regard- ing statements by Mr. H. H. Hat- field on the potato price situation, Mr. J. W. Boulter, manager of the P. E. I. Potato Growers Associa- tion, told a. Guardian representa- tive that "the farmers in Prince Edward Island realize that it it llad not been for the floor price established last October, followed by the market outlet to Great Bri- taln nf 3,500 carloads shipped from this Provlnce,'they would have had the most disastrous year ever experienced in ihb potato busi- iless."

Tile ‘idea in establishing a floor price, Mr. Boulter said, was that. if the farmers held their potatoes long enough they would have had to come to the floor to supply the demand. He had advised. this course all along.

“After the 1st of last January at least, and possibly from De- cember, the price received for seed and table stock would average the floor price to our farmers," he pointed out. ‘The fact that we had potatoes that .4.’ 3v.» -»- _ l‘ , ll . - l’ gpougyg .1 for the rest of Cazuda."

With regard to the statement that the last shipments o! the British order were sold at prices far below those prevailing in the United States. Mr. Boulter pointed out that this market. did not con- tinue after tholiritioh order had been supplied.

Differential

omawa. June 25—(S1pecia‘l)— Today acting Minister of Agri- culture Ernest Bertrand finally turned down the request of Marl- tlmo potato-growers headed by the Minister of Agriculture of New Brunswick, that. the Agricultural Prices Support Board pay the growers who sold. their potatoes prior to May 1, the difference between what they actually re- ceived and a “fair market value."

In reply .t;o questions asked by H. H. Hatfield. Progressive Con- servative member for Victoria- Carleton, the acting minister ad- mitted having received a resolu- tion from the New Brunswick Min- ister of Agriculture on potato prices. His ruling is:

“The Agricultural Prices Support Board decided not to adopt. the recommendation contained ‘m the resolution on the ground that the T-roposed payments would be con- trary to the principle of price sup- port already adoted by the Board cn the recommendation of the potato delegation which met the Board on October 1, 1946."

Coupled with this subject. ihe 1.- 500 attending members and lmoci- ates discussed matters rangalg from congenital heart diseases t0 remedies for explosive attacks of sta/mmerlng.

The talk of diphtheria and other diseases for which vaccines have been prepared wu given by Dr. RD. Defries of Toronto, who, said that statistic; indicated the incid- ence of diphtheria decreased when vaccine inn-ooulations had been made.

An interesting development. not new although only now becoming generally known, is a toxold oom- poum-d which can be sdlninlatered safely to children which provides resistenco to diphtheria, whooping cough and tetanus ln one dove, Dr. Defries said.

Documents Exohanged In 3-hour Session

(By D'Arcy O'Donnell)

ONAWA, June 25—tCPl-Rep- resentativas of Canada. and New- foundland gathered around a (‘m1- ference table for about three hours today and then decided to adjourn for g, week to permi-t study of an exchange of documents touching on the question of the lsland‘: en.- try into confederation.

The documents. described by External Affa lrs Mln lstel" St. Laurent as “voluminc-us". were

exchanged at a closed mectulg and were not released for publication. The closed session followcd the historic inaugural meeting at which Prime Minister Mackenzie King and F. Cordon Bradley. head of the seven-man Newfoundland delegation. outlined the posiUon of the two countries in the talks. Mr. King warned that “however close the association of our two countries may be, however much our two peoples may have in com- mon. union is not a course to be undertaken lightly by either side." Mr. Bradley said he and his c01- leﬂglic-S had come to Ottawa Wlih instructions to find out whether union could be accomplished on 4, fair and equitable basis. The ls- iand was looking for a. new fol-m of government but it. was not looking for "economic crutches." The people of Newfoundland would never enter confederation if they felt they could not contribute to the common good. Mr. Bradley and M1‘. 3t. Laur- “l. were. e. #44

u‘ F. . '

s-umed. They said they would meet the press after the meetings and release any information which they felt should be pub- llshed.

The Canadian documents out- lined what. Newfoundland would be entitled to rr she. became Call- ada's 10th Province. They also outlined what. the island's no '- tion would be under the proposals

made to existing provinces in negotiations for new taxation agreements.

The Newfoundland documents outlined the economic and con- stitutlonel position of the island. giving details of. the services now m effect.

Mr. Bradley told newspapermen that if Newfoundland entered confederation she would expect. the same rights and privileges as other Provinces.

Charges Canadian

Yugoslavs Misled

OTTAWA. June ilk-The Senate Immigration Committee to d a y heard charges that the BOO-odd Canadian Yugoslavs who left Montreal last; month for their homeland had been "mlsled“ by Communist-inspired newspapers in Toronto and the Yugoslav Em- bassv in Ottawa.

They were made by Dr. Mladen Glunio-Zorkin of Windsor. Ont.. secretarv of the Canadian Croat- ian Peasant Society and until 1944 an officer in the Yugoslav under- ground. The Society's brief asked the Committee to recommend that 10,000 Croats. Serb and Slovence Yugoslav: now in European con- ce tration camps be Hllowed to en the Dominion. '

Dr. Giunlu-Zorkin said most older Yugoslav; in Canada could not read sufficient English to get their news unadulterated. They therefore had to read tho Com- munist press. which predicted n depression and urged them to leave the Dominion before it came. '

Most of the emigrants. he said. were not avowed Communists but had been convinced that the doc- trine was "a power which would overrun the world tomorrow."
