Lobster Season Discussion Highlights Fisheries oNMeeting

That the proposed one season for the fishing of lobsters would aid greatly in the control of poach- ing and the taking of underslze icbsters was the feeling of the an- nual meeting of the P. E. 1. Fisher- ies Federation yesterday. However. an other grounds there was con- siderable opposition from differ- ent fishing areas of the Province.

Several alternate solutions were proposed. including a suggestion by Rev. Eric Robin. North Rustico, that the fishermen do as the co- operative fishermen of his district do and impose self-fines for the taking of small lobsters.

Mr. A. Walthen Gaudet. secre- tary of the Federation, pointed out that on convictions for the offences the convicting magistrates were assessing fines of a nominal nat- ure. In the majority of cases. he said. they were of 310. He pro- posed that much stiffer fines be assessed. Various speakers agreed that if the magistrates would stif- fan the fines to si.000 and six months in jail the penalties would have a salutary effect.

The subject formed the main dis- cusslon of the afternoon business

session as the change proposed in the report oi Dr. A. H. Needler, Director of the Biological Station, St Andrews, N. 13., would elimin- ate the present two fishing seasons iu this Province.

Mr. J.B. Myrlck. Tignlsh, said it was a contentious question which would have a lot of discussion. He maintained there were three views to be considered. They were those of 1. Fishermen: 2. Packers; 3. Con- servation. Speaking for the fisher- men of Prince County, he said

"that the difference between spring

and fall fishing seasons in his own County often meant a difference of up to 40 pounds per case of packed lobster due to the size of the lobsters caught.

other speakers said it was not safe to start fishing when storms might be expected as it resulted in a loss of gear and a consequent higher cost to packers.

Mr. Thomas Fraser. Murrav Har- bour. said he remembered the fall season of 1917, which lasted a month from September 1 to oct- ober i. It came just after the "shelling" season when the lob- sfers were hungry. It was easy to catch them and they crawled into the traps in such numbers that it took three years to get over the results. He suggested that if there were to be only one season it should be from May ill to July 30 and the fishermen would gain from the extra yield per pound of ion- ster.

Mr. Emmett Gallant. Rusticc. opposed the fall season for fishing because of the danger of losing gear or the North side of the Is-

A resolution asking for some governmental solution to the problem of the pollution of the water at Murray Harbour by the starch factory was unanimously passed at the annual meeting of the P. E. 1. Fisheries Federation yesterday. '

It was claimed that the politi- tion destroyed the oxygen in the water and that lobsters were killed from 8 to 14 minutes after they came in contact. Fishermen also claimed that due to the pol- lutlon of the water they could not hold their lobsters for fu- lure market shipments and they

were forced to assemble them in small lots. This small lot assembling

meant they had to call their help for only part-day work and yet pay for a full day. It was also poinicd out in the resolution discussion that trout and all other fish suffered a fate sim- ilar to the lobsters.

It was claimed that the pol- iutlon of the water there was equivalent to the pollution re- sulting from the sewage of a city of approximately 22,000 in population. And this. it was said.

Studying Fis Transportation Problem In P.E.l.

The Canadian National Railway is making an extensive study of the problem of fish transporta- tion from Prince Edward Island to marketing points. Mr. E. Arthur Day. Fisheries Supervisor, C.N.R'.. Montreal, told the annual meeting of the P.E.I. Fisheries Federation yesterday.

The study eventually will em- brace Nova Scotia. New Bruns- wick and Newfoundland to give a complete picture of the Mari- timesl situation. but the railway is starting with this Province first.

Mr. Day also briefly mention- ed that the railway was putting new-type refrigerator cars into service for the handling of fish and he expressed the opinion they would prove more satisfac- tory than the onescin use in the past. He also said the railway was now working on further im- proved types of cars to give even greater protection to ship-

pers of fish from this section of

Pick U. K. Conservatives To Win General Election

LONDON. Sept. 20 - (AP) -- British lbettors established the Conservative Party as a four-tc- six favorite to topple Prime Min- ister Attieda Latbor regime in the general election Oct. 26.

That. means persons who figure Winston Churchill and his Tory followers will take over the gov- ernment put up money at the ratio of 56 against 124 by those who back Latbor.

(Reuters News Agency said booiomakets offered odds of five to one that the Conservatives will win.)

The prospect that after six years the Labor Party's socialist rule.may be nearing an end touch- ed off a buying spree on the London Stock Exchange. Mil- lions of pounds were added to share values.

Brokers explained a Conserva- tive victory would mean Britain's business community has heard the last of the dividend-freeze plan of Attlee's Chancellor of the Exchequer, Hugh Gaitskeli.

Conservatives Cautious

But many Conservatives were playing down the feeling of op- timism in the party's ran-ks. They passed the word: "Remember the Retpulblicans."

This was a reference to Pres- ident 'I'rum.an's victory over tile favored Republicans in the U. S. 1918 election.

The two chief figures in the election battle Attlec and Churchill - made their opening tactical moves.

Attlee told newspaper men Brit- ish voters will be asked to de- cide whether to ”go backward -with the Conservatives or for- ward WIixh7L7atb0F." He then left on a motor trip to North Berwick, Scotland. where he will address a Labor Party conference Satur- day.

At Chartxwell, his country home

of Westerham, Kent. Churchill gathered various Conservative leaders about him. These in-

cluded many men likely to be in his cabinet if the Conservatives win.

"East - West German Agreement Signed

BEtRiLIN. Sept. 20 -- (AP) - A new East-West German trade agreement. reported to. promise removal of Communist restrict- ions on West Berlin's commerce. was signed today.

Allied quarters regarded the agreement between East and West Germany as a certain sign that Russia is willing to pay a price in her campaign to unite the na- tion, if she can forestall rearm- ament of West Germany in that way.

The agreement is believed to follow the lines of an old trade pact by which goods worth si'.'0.- ooo,ooo a year were exchanged. In the old agreement East Germany received coal. steel and machines from the Ruhr in exchange for grain. sugar and optical equip-

ment. ' West Gennans said they had been assured that interference

with road. rail and barge traffic between West Berlin and the Western Republic would cease.

Urge Thrift

OTTAWA. Sept. 20 - tCP) -- The 13,000-me-mtber Canadian As- soaiation of Consumers today en- dorsed an anti-inflation plan to make Canada's multitude of house- wives and mothers front-rank fighters against the high cost of living.

The plan. as outlined by Mrs. R. J. Marshall. president of the National Council of Women of Canada. would be to launch a "thrift campaign" to get the Canadian consumer to pinch pen- nice and thus avoid the need of outright price control.

M-rs. Marshall, a delegate to the association's two-clay board of directors annual meeting. said the national council intends to launch the campaign at its an- nual meeting in Montreal next week In he presence of Finance Minister hnbott.

Mr. Abbott will help with the campaign's planning to get h0lIsC' wives "to save, to practice thrift

If each woman conscientiously does her part, Canadian house- wives may end up by saving "hun- dreds of millions of dollars."

Later, as resolutions were after- ed from the floor. the association approved of one, asking the gov- ernment to set standards on brown bread. to fix quantities of whole wheat it must contain and to pre- vent a passing off of bread color- ed with molasses as brown bread.
