“Food processing is our best industrial bet", Hartwell Daley. director of research and de- velopment for the provincial de- partment of industry and re- sources said in an address to the Rotary Club at the weekly luncheon meeting held at The Charlottetown Hotel yesterday.

Mr. Daley described the d

cltne of agricultural and fishing activities on the Atlantic sea- board during the past 501 years and the need to meet the inroads of foreign, modern fish- ing methods and ships. A survey of 5.000 people in this province has developed solid opinion as to our needs. reaching the conclusion that off- farm. part-time full-time non-agricultural work is essen- tial to our future. "Agriculture will not employ more but less." the speaker said and pointed out the need of going after the type of industry best suited to our province.

RESOURCE BASE

“Food processing is a resource base — transportation is avail- able —— labor is available — power is satisfactory and mar- kets are available. all of which provides agriculture with a basic or much-needed adjustment." the speaker said." The market is a growing one with stiff com- petition and we have to consider more varied crops to meet the demand". Mr. Daley said.

“All over North America com- petition in industry has been re- solved by sitting around a table, and this can be accomplished anywhere where there is an un- derstanding of basic problems. This is true of contract require- ments. although there is always room for misunderstanding. There must be some assurance that food will be available for processing and that farmers will produce. what the processor will need. This can readily be re- solved if the plant and the

Speaking of the major prob- lem confronting local operations by small Island industries Mr. Daley pointed out the great dis- advantage of not being able to market their produce in a big

way. CONCERTEID EFFORT

“We must make a concerted effort to have industries started our products. otherwise their ur- chasing power. their demand for workers will be diverted to other places which are now holding out tempting bids for the placing of these plants.

“ vricultural areas are being squeezed out in areas of the central provinces to give place to manufacturing interests.

Agricultural development P.E.I. should be outstanding in the next few years and will be if all concerned pull together in the development of what we ave on land and sea. rather than regretting what we do not h

“We have the resources. and human talent to deal adequately with the desire and aims of any processing plant wishing to come here." Mr. Daley said.
