The rural people of the province should be “more thoroughly equipped on prac- tical farm problems, marketing end rural citizenship."

The meeting also asked the gov- ernment for laws which would es- tablish control of dogs in the pro- vince and give sheepowners pro- tection from “roving dog-s causing great. destruction and loss in flocks of sheep in this province." and which would press control of para- sites in farm animals.

The delegates to farmers’ parlia- ment were welcomed to the city by Mayor P. W. Turner of Char- lottetown and Hon. W. H. Dennis, Minister o! Agriculture.

Mr. Dennis suggested tc the Cen- tral Farmers’ Institute meetins that the annual agricultural meet- ings be held in future during the early sessions of the provincial legislature, one month later than the usual time.

Warrants have been served on the eight by Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the, have been told tr- nppear in Hal fax to answer tho charges. Their names have not been disclosed.

Fines totalling $16,000 and jail sentences ranging from one day to a month were imposed last. septem- ber on l0 Maritlmcrs who pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges grow- ing out of the revelation of an sl- leged 85.000000 Canadian liquor ring. An eleventh, Genoa Sanford of Clementsville, N. 8., chose to be tried before a Supreme Court jury.

After twu trials he was convicted of three charges and sentenced to a ﬁne of $2,300 and one month in jail. An appeal was thrown out and the sentence raised to s. ﬁne of $3,000 and six months imprison- merit.

Faulty Positioaport Delayed Rescue. Five Ships Grounded In Fog Off Misichusetts Coast.

(A. P. By Guardian’s Special Wire)

_NEW YORK, Feb. 18--Ir_i a terse radiogram the mas- ter of the passenger liner City of Newport News tonight informed the coast guard here he had taken off all 33 men from the foundered Greek cargo ship Stefanos Costomenis and was taking them to Norfolk, Va.

The rescue of the entire Greek crew from .the wave- tossed leaking vessel was accomplished in heavy seas about 500 miles off the Virginia Capes after more than 17 hours of fateful uncertainty. .

‘Capt. Robert Wrightfs message to the coast guard said:

Creek crew safely aboard my ship. Cannot lose time standing by derelict, She is lying with colors flying and anchor light exhibited. Have already broadcast derelict position. Proceeding Norfolk.”

The coast guard vessel Champlain was sent to mine or ghgll u‘; derelict to mmove it from the path of shipping.

The freighter was abandoned af- ter the crew was rescued. Boston coast. guard headquarters first re- ported the contact 280 miles south- east of Nantucket Lightship. Limp- lhg toward Hampton Roads at eight knots, the distressed vessel had pleaded for someone to come and "save the crew." The message was in reply to a. query from the Newport News, which had turned toward the phosphate-laden freighter when she first called for help last night, saying she was leaking “badly?

Along the Massachusetts coast the weather was so thick that fivc vessels grounded and sailing schedules were altered at Boston. First distress calls from the Stcphanos Costomenis gave her po- sition as 180 miles southeast of Nantucket Lightship. The Newport News proceeded to the spm but found no trace of the freighter. She wlrelessed the Costmnenis her position reports were unreliable and unless the freighter hove to the Newport News would resume her course.

Sometime later the Newport News again queried the leaking ship, asking what asslstancc was needed. The reply crackled back:
