be exchanged between the llbdsral and Provincial Governments.

The Supreme Court .of Canada ruled Tuesday that under the Brit- ish North America Act - th.ls coun- try's constitution .. one govern- ment cannot delegate to other a power assigned by the act.

Mr. Macdonald. one of Canada's most astute students of constitu- tional law. said he has not yet had

opportunity to study the reasons for

the court's decision but it is likely this Government will appeal the decision to the Privy Council.

If the Privy Council upheld Can- ada's court decision. the Nova Scotia Government would in all probability fight for an amend- ment of the constitution. the Pre-

Only One-Flalle Capable 0i p Carrying A-Bomb

LONDON. Oct. 0 - (AP) - The only known Russian plane capable - of dropping atom bombs at long range is a copy of the American B-20 su-perfort, Jane's "All The Worlds Aircraft" reported today.

The authoritative annual survey also listed a 052-mile-an-hour jet fighter as the fastest known soviet military plane.

Jane's said the Russians claim to have is faster-than-sound fighter in the ”Yakov1ev Supersonic" but added "insufficient information is available."

The survey said no soviet coun- fsr has so far been found to of- ficial 11.8. c.laims that 10 different types cf American jet and rocket- powered-aircraft have already ex- ceeded the speed of sound.

Overall Production Picture in Agriculture Satisfactory

By W. I. Shaw. i Deputy Minister of Agriculture

Farm production on Prince Ed- walrd Island during the present season may be tel-med satisfactory. The early season was cold and seeding -was later than normal. The lack of warmth and somewhat dry weather adversely affected pas- tures and hay production, and as a result there will be less volume of roughage feed available during the present year. The carry-over

of the previous, season's hay crop. however. should be ample for all purposes.

Cool, cloudy, weather in the lat- ter part of the summer brought

grain along very gradually; the grain iuled slowly and fully and the Province has possibly the best

The whole ..uestion arose with :1 bill introduced but not passed in the Nova Sootia ugislature several years ago. The bill was brought before the Nova Scotla Supreme Court in a test case to get a defin- ite rulihg on the delegation of powers issue. The N. S. court ruled it illegal and its decision was up- held Tuesday by the Supreme Court of Canada.

Potatoes

Potato acreage is less than in 1949 and the general picture with reference to production would in- dlcate a much less volume for shipment than in the previous year. Unfortunately markets for potatoes are in a more or less de- moralized condition at the present time. United States estimates are substantially above that of the previcus year and Canadian field estimates are also above the form- er .season'a level. These high es- timates and. the fact that early and mldseaaon crops have been rush- ed on to the Central Canadian market have developed a very un- stable condition which it is hoped will be more ca- less temporary in character. . y

I personally feel that when fu.i information is available the vol- ume of marketable potatoes in Canada wi1l'be much less than present figures indicate. and with the elimination of panic thinking

gave the first official indication that Canada definitely will send armed forces to peacetime Europe.

He said "the armed forces of Canada must be appropriately rep- resented in the integrated force which is to be established by the North Atlantic Alliance" for the defence of western Europe.

His statement. in a speech pre- pared for delivery to the Canadian md-ustrial Preparedness Associa- tion, was interpreted as a strong sign that the Government wants the army's 10.000-strong special force sentsto Europe, in whole or irl part, either as an alternative to Korea or after Korea is over,

A third possibility is that part of the force will go to Korea as a token political occupatlcn force while the bulk of it goes to Europe.

Mr. St. Laurent did not tie his statement down to the army and he may have had air fighter squad- rons ln mind. But he stressed that Canada's manpower contribution ioi Europe must be relatively small and that Europe's greatest immed- iate need is not manpower but arms. Canada's largest peacetime help, he said, must inevitably be in arms production. C

The Prime Minister said Canada can't complete defence production planning until she knows her pail. in joint Allied prccluction. but 511- nified a belief that this should bl- cleared up "in the next few

He said "before long" Canada and the United states expect to an- nounce decisions reached for co- ordination cf their defence produc- tion. a step that is expected to merge their economies for war productlon purposes.

The five men who own the boat are liussel Poole, Clifton Mac- Cormaok, Richard Power. Alfred Gallant. and .1. Arthur Peters, all of Soul-is. The boat is skippered by Capt. A. L. Outhouse of Nova Scoiia.

The basic plan of the Loan Board's financing fishermen on is dragger operation differs only slightly from the plan of fin- ancing the individual fisherman for a lobster bosi, Board Chair- man Eugene Gormsn explained. The fishermen put up ihiriy per cehi. deposit and are financed for the remainder of the boat and en- gine. Such equlpmehhas nets, rope, twine, etc. are provided by the fishermen themselves.

Loans are repaid by reductions of 12 1-2 per cent from the gross catch.
