By IAN MACDONALD Canadian Press Staff Writer ST. JOHN'S, Nfki, (CP)—Pre-

mier Smallwood says his proposal to drive the International Wood- workers of America (CLC) out of Newfoundland has received strong support but IWA leaders say they are not worried.

H. Landon Ladd, the IWA's Eastern Canadian president, says: “We aren't: too much con- cerned with the fish-wood union ‘being formed.”’ Ina breadcast

jlast week the premier suggested

‘the _uniag could affiliate with the IWA and especially in the magnificent support we have received from our loggers,” Ladd told report- ers. The union was also pleased with the support given to the Newfoundland loggers by - other unions on the mainland. SAYS MOST IN FAVOR

The premier said he has re- ceived more than 5,000 messages supporting his proposal. Only five of every 100 telegrams ob- jected to his stand, he said, and these came from labor leaders

Mr. Smallwood has called off a trip he planned-to make to Gander Wednesday to start or- ganizing the new union.

He said he had to stay in town to receive “important visitors”

r afl

from mainland Canada and pre- pare for the opening of the pro- vincial legislature Monday. A.-cabinet session was held Wednesday.

Mr. Smallwood did not say whether he will go to Gandér at a later date nor did he name the expected visitors. But he said their’ presence concerns the fu- ture prosperity of Newfoundland.

WILL SUE PREMIER |

Mr, Ladd has announced he will. sue the premier for $100,000 for defamation of character as a resuit-of remarkg made inthe radio address. Lawyer James Green said the writ was issued Wednesday. “r

Union officials have asked Pfo- vincial Labor MAnister Ballam for permission to prosecute premier ‘for unfair labor practices. Mr. Ballam could not be reached for comment. ,

The FWA called a strike against A.N.D.. Dec, 31 for a reduction of six hours in the 60-hour work week without ‘loss of take-home pay plus a five-cent boost in the $1.05 basic hourly. wage. The changes, approved by. a concilia- tion board, would raise the rate to $1.22.

The strike has been marked by outbreaks of violence.

Myers Raps

(Coatinued from page 1)

He criticized the Minister of Highways for his statement that “the 17 per cent increase would cost the Island six miles of pavement.”

He said at that rate of calcula- tion the pavement laid must be costing the government $25,000 a mile. ‘I wonder what kind of a bill the minister will put ia for the roads constructed under the roads to resources program,” said Mr. Myers.

VICTORIA CAUSEWAY

The Crapaud member said he would not go into the quest- ion of Borden-Tormentine - fer- ries as these had been adequate- ly dealt with. He did however offer strong criticism of the gov- ernment for failure to construct a causeway at Victoria. “This matter has been kicked around long enough, and I hope that these fine people in this beauti- ful community will be properly taken care of,” he said. | Mr. Myers noted that the bud- get of the Department of Agri- culture had increased by $178,- 000 from 1951-58 but he could not understand why, under such cir- cumstances, the price of lime- stone should go up by 30 cents a ton.

He was pleased*to see that the government had “at last” decided to do something for young farmers through their establishment program. “This is something that my party has

advocating for years,” he

said

FINANCIAL BURDEN

The First Queens member said | many farmers are not financially jable to buy seeds and fertili- | zer in the Spring and some spec- julator comes along and offers jto buy the seed and fertilizer— ithe result being that the farmer in order to get a living for him- self puts in twice the crop he ordinarily would.

The same is true of pork, Mr. Myers declared. He blamed the packing houses for encouraging farmers to increase production by supplying feed. ‘‘This is what causes our low prices,”’ he said, “and I hear that many farmers are in debt because of it.”

The Crapaud member recalled that a few years ago, the govern- ment appointed an. agricultural engineer. ‘‘At' the time I asked what this man’s duties would be and I was told that he would go around measuring the farmer's barns—When I heard it I told , them this fellow would walk ome dead’’. ;

economist, I wonder what that means,” said Mr. Myers. | Hon. Mr. Clark: “Look. it up)

‘lim the dictionary.”

Mr. Myers: “I suppose he will | be telling the farmers how to. keep their books but if farmers | are getting no more than what the Minister of Education says they are getting, there won't be | many books to keep.”

QUESTIONS STORY

Mr. Myers questioned the min- ister’s report of 104,75-lb. bags of potatoes being sold for 16 cents and stated that he had looked up some of his receipts for pota- toes sold in January and these sales indicated 90 cents for a 73- Ib. bag. “Thank goodness I am not living in Montague, if he cheats me the same as he did the other fellow.” |

Hon. Mr. Clark: “I don’t deal in potatoes.”

Dr. Dewar: “But you had the cheque”’.

Continuing, Mr. Myers said he was tired of hearing reference | being made to the “hungry thir- ties’’. He said that during this very period he had lost every- thing, including his dwelling house and in eight years had re- built, paid off a mortgage aad bought a car. i

He also stated that his return)

per acre on this year's crop of! potatoes was $206.09 per acre.

When asked by Fred Ramsay what his cost of production was, | Mr. Myers replied, ‘‘common sense’.

PREMIER'S SPEECH

Reference was made by Mr Myers .to the Premier's speech | at a nominating convention in Montague before the last elect-| ion. |

According | to the Crapaud) member, the Premier was re- | ported to have said, ‘““We have a letter from the Bird's Eye) people who are ready to set up business and contract with the farmers and it won't cost the government one cent.” !

“Why then did he turn around and spend a half million of our earned money to build a plant at Sherwood?"’ he asked.

Mr. Acora: “Don't you want to help the farmers?”

Mr. Myers: ‘Wouldn't it be a whole lot better to-put the money into transportation and help de- velop these northern markets.”

POOR PROFIT

Making a profit out of grow- ing peas was not so easy, Mr. Myers thought. He said he knew a farmer who had twelve acres of peas on which he sowed $150) worth of fertilizer. He received $185 for the peas leaving him a| profit of $35 from which he had to pay three men. “It was just 12 acres of good land wasted,” jhe added. ; Mr. Myers asked how many in the House remembered the Pre- mier waving a letter from the National Resources Mizister an- nouncing the roads to resources program. ‘‘The Premier at. that time told us the program was no good for the Island because we had no resources—he forgot we had a wonderful tourist indus- try,”’ he noted. ;

Speaking of road tenders, the) Queens member wondered why, | “Every other tender had to go te the 4th district of Prince’. He felt that many districts in the First District of Queens were eligible for equal consideration.

STRATHGARTNEY PARK

Reference was made to the establishment of a park at Strathgartney and Mr. Myers said great credit should go to the donors, Mr. and Mrs. Cotton. He said a great many tourist cabin owners had raised their rates and the tourists have given their answer in coming with tents and trailers.

Mr. Myers complained thal re- sidents of West Prince were having electricity forced upon them when they were not ready to pay for it. At the same time

|Park, Mr. Cullen said the gov- ernment was grateful to the don- ors,

he said, many residents of First Queens were clamoring for elec-

trical power. The Crapaud member was) strongly critical of the light)

house tourist information bureau at Albany. He said only two or three people could get intd it at one time, “and who wants to| climb three or four flights of | stairs to look ot somebody's back field?"’, he asked.

Special Awards Given 5 Lions “Club Members

Large attendance and lively discussion were keynotes of the semi-monthly dinner meeting of the Charlottetown Lions Club held at the Queen Hotel last night un- | der the chairmanship of King Lion Lou Bagnall.

Five members of the local club were the recipients of special awards for bringing new mem-| bers into the club, and as a re-) sult of their fine showing, presi- dent Lou Bagnall was also pre- sented with a membership pro- gram award plaque from Lions International. The presentations were conducted by club secretary Martin Finnamore. Award win- ners were: Bob Younker, Joe Molloy, Aleex Matheson, Dr. An- gus MacEachern and Dr. I, Rachmel. .

In tabling his report on the ac- | tivities of the sight conservation committee, chairman Don Gal lant advised the club that a cheque in the amount of 168.65 has been issued the local branch

The recent activity of ice- breakers in the St. Lawrence River led Mr. Cullen to suggest that an icebreaker built for \the Borden service at the \present time could very well be used later for this ice breaking. “It would be no loss to the govera- ment,” he added.

also had a word of praise for) Wendell Profit, provincial for- ester afd to Anson MacLaugh- lin, ‘director of the farm im- provement policy, under whose. direction this work was carried out. ‘‘They did an excellent pob,” he observed.

EXCELLENT WEATHER

Mr. Cullen said ‘the past year was an excellent one for the, growing of crops. He noted that potatoes showed a lower yield than during 19§7 but felt this was. probably a blessing in dis- guise, in view of the low prices this fall.

He was particularly impres- sed with the abundant growih of | pasture lands and referred to a visit to the Ministers of Agricul- ture from British Columbia aad Saskatchewan who asserted they had never seen the like — cows up to their kn@s in clover in the middle of August.

The Minister said the good weather was helpful in tie har- vesting of the Island hay crop. He said 90 per cent of the hay crop was put up in excellent con- dition.

He reported a. good yiqfd in grain crops but bad weather in the fall preveated many farm-

|

ers from harvesting this crop in, good condition. \ During the course of his

speech, Mr. Cullen made refer- ence to the passing of Hon. George D. DeBlois, Mr, Picton McCormac and Mr. Jerome Gil- lis. The latter, he said, was a valued member of the Work- men’s Compensation Board and was intimately associated with the governmext.
