polntwin the year. it was stated by Mr. (112. I-Iartlen. Canada Packers manager here last night.

Canada Packers apparently do not expect a long strike as they increased the price of hogs hy 75 cents a hundred weight for grade A-l pigs yesterday.

The Charlottetown plant will be able to b ” nearly everything available during the strike. Mr. Hsrtlon stated. They have plenty of space in their cooling plant and can ship meats by truck on the Wood Islands ferries.

The present poultry situation is not considnred serious with foods appearing to be the moat impart- snt problem. Poultry buyers state" that there are no large quantities of poultry ready for market yet.

The recently ecrapleiad accom- modations at the Government cold storage plant will provide space for poultry meets. and quantities of butter. eggs and cheese. it was learned from Ken. Eugene Cullen. Minister of Natural Resources and Hen. C. C. Baker, Minister of Ag- riculture. Work on sections of the plant will have to be com- pleted before the full accommoda- lien space will be used.

Shipments of early potatoes and turnips will be curtailed until the Abegweit is operating lagain. The first shipments had been rolling off to market for the past week or more and it was stated that the potato situation might become critical if the strike is prolonged for any length of lime.

Lobster exporters are feeling lhe effects of the strike and as many as possible are being ship- ped via the Nerthumborland fer- ries. The management of the far- ries hope to give priority to men with perishable products.

Tourist Industry Tilt

Perhaps the hardest hit in the Province were these in the tourist industry. Reports from resorio along the North Shore indicate that most places are Vacant.

A month or twok later and the fuel situation might have basa- more acute. At present the chief fuel consumers in the city. the Maritime Electric Compeny. N- port they have oudicient oil eup- piias to lost for several weeks.

The water trade with Newfound- land will continue the same as usual. it is expected. The Gallo- way Kent called at Charlottetown 'Monday on her was mm Noni- real and picked up a number of cattle and poultry product!-

THE GUARDIAN.

' OTTAWA. Aug. I-(C!)-Cam eda'a navy chief. disclosing details of, the flows expansion plans. said tonight it is taking all of its doo- treyors out of mothbells and equip- ping them with the "very latest anti-submarine gear." More than a dosen ml! but to see. Rea-r-Admiral I. T.-W. Grant said the nevy'a preparedness pro- gram is being encoded through the acceleration of production of anti- submorine escort vessels. of mine- sweepers. of radar and in other ways. But the greatest need is for men. including young pilots for the float air aim.

He went on the air with Defence Minister Clarion. who announced that during the lost three weeks the armed forces have taken in lo.- 000 officers and men. the gseat mei- oriiy for the army's special force. Both spoke from addresses pre- pared for delivery over the trans- 'Cenade network of the CBC.

dpoeielrereooomlloied

Mr. Cisxton said the special force-slated to fight aggression in Korea or elsewhere-has fined its own ranks and recruited "almost all the men we went for ' ment" for a year.

no mentioned no figure, but do- fenca officials said there are about 1,300 men in the force now and that the addition of regular force specialists and of officers drawn from volunteers will raise it to ob-

out 8,600. Mr. Ciexton said that "except in certain categories. particularly

tradesmen. we shall only be recruit-l ing s few more men for tho specisii force."

He called on Canadian youth to Join the regular forces them- selves and said they have been doing this at a rate of about 1.500 a month since the call first went out July 30.

Mr. Cleston said the navy has "an ektnmely important place in our whole defence plan" because a "resolute enemy possessing large numbers of submarines and well- trained crews is a major threat to the lifeiines of ships essential to support our friends in an emerg- ency."

"We hope that threat will never become active. It is certain that a program designed to meet it ef- fectively will play its part in dis- couraging that possibility or in coun- tering it if necessary."

Admiral Grant said Canadian ships have called at many ports around the world since the was but these were not pleasur cruises. Lila could be tough at sea. "Their prim- ary purpose is to achieve the oper- ational preparedness essential to an efficient fighting fleet."

Ila lauded the.value to the fleet of the aircraft carrier Magnificent end said air-sea anti-submarine co- operation "already exists between the navy and air force and it will gs:-Ytainiy be extended and develop-

Mon Pilots Needed

But the navy wanted to expand its own flying activities. Avenger aircraft were being used to renew the fleet air arm's strength end they were being converted and equipped with the beat-anti-sub equipment available.

Pilots were needed to fly the novy'a. planes immediately. The right men-between id and 21 end with senior matriculation -- could obtain seven-year commissions.

The destroyer fleet bed. almost completed a program of equipping itself with the latest anti-sub weap- ons and detection equipment and was being armed with new anti-alrorhit guns. ,

All destroyers now in reserve would 'be reactivated during a per- iod of time.

The navy wanted many men end could absorb newcomers at a rate of 800 a month. The sgelimiis were it and 20. Educational qualifications must include grade eight. The re- cruit must be a British subject.

share the responsibility for dealing with a situation that will quickly dev;lhop into a "serious emergency."

" a, Government will have to

set to protect the vital interests of the whole national community," the Prime Minister said. As a result. Parliament is being "called to moot at once so that the representatives of. all. the people may act together in discharging that responsibilities to meet the situation.”

,0rdinsrily. Parliament was to have met- this fall to consider the Korean. Iituetion. The data had not been set. but the legal formal- ities already were out of the way so that the members could be sum- moned immediately.

J-ust how the proposed Govern- ment action would be handled- by Parliament caused some contact- ure. The normal procedure of pass- ing legislation through both Houses in ght be too slow to deal with a rail. and couununicetiens stoppage that would grow more serious with each day.

cII'Tevm Hotel Takes on ileeellliilallce Te Besieged Fortress

Guests at the Charlottetown Ho- tel are experiencing a situation somewhat akin to living in e be- lldiedtwtressesareoultodtha railway strike. which involves fifty hotel employees.

All of the lio rooms are filled. but staff to take care of the needs 01 the guests is missing. Many of the visitors are learning to make their own beds. and all but .the permanent guests are obtaining their meals at restaurants. Heads of the various departments were exempted from the strike as they are not membersiof the union, and these are endeavorlng to make the stay of the guests as pleasant as possible. Firemen were permitted to remain on the job in order that the hotel might keep up steam.

It is anticipated that as rooms are emptied, new gueets.will not be odmitlod except in exceptional cases. Pickete were stationed at the front and rear of the premises yes- rdey. but were only stopping pos- sible employees from entering. During the morning a misunder- stand arose. and pickets were al- lowing no-one but . istored guests to enter the hotel. This continued for approximately an hour until contact with regional strike head- quarters at Moncton was estab- lished. and more definite picketlng i....t. ” were a ' ”.

Among those refused admission were a group of dlertered account- ants willing to attend the Chart- ered Accountant's conference now being held at the Hotel,
