"Kitty Kearney from Kiilamey" is a moentty-wrltten hlsh-Airrlerican comedy whose sccncs are built around the luxurious Spa-ricer res- idence. Kenneth, the Ion of down- 8?!‘ Mrs. Wellington Spencer, leatves his home in America on a business "111 to Ireland where he meets the i-alr Kitty and becomes amittetn. Once more home in America, waiver, he slowly begins to forget the beautiful colleen and has pract- lcadly dismissed hea- from his mind when, suddenly, she turrls up in own home. Developments then follow thick and fast and not al- ways smoothly or to the liking of‘ 1'1

All characters in the play were. Dorlraycd with o. realism whichi showed that Mr. Callaghan. as us? “M. had h-zd hid cast pay careful attention to every minute detail

MONTREAL. March l’! -— (CF) -An official of the Inter-Island Steamship Company. owners of the strike-bound freighter Island con. ncctor tied up in Halifax harbor. sold here today that his company has not received any demands from the Canadian Seaman's Uri-ion with regard to o. settlement.

will he required to sell to the Wheat Board on the basis of exist- ing ceilings of 64 3-4 cents for bar- ley and 51 1-2 cents for oats ail stocks in their possession at mid- night tonight. March 1'1.

5. For the time being, because of the continuation of price ceilings on animal products, payments of l0 cents a bushel for oats and 25 cents a bushel for barley will be made with the same conditions as the 25-cent payment on wheat pur- chased for feeding purposes.

6. The Wheat Board, either cirr- ectly or through agents, will be- come the sole extporter of oats and barley. Any exports by the Board will be fro-m grain acquired by the Board under the price support plan and the net profits therefrom will be paid into equalization ac- counts for the benefit of producers.

Mr. Gardiner also announced a boost in its buying prices for flax- aeed. effective Aug. 1 this year. from $3.25 to $5 a bushel and tho removal of price ceilings on shell e8’

gs.

In making the announce-

ments. he observed that pro- duction of dairy products. meat. poultry and eggs in 1947-48 would depend upon tho feed, supplies avnllablel Output ol these products could not be In- creased over Inst year unlcs larger supplies of feed grninis were made available. Of the 10-cent adjustment to be made on barley already delivered. hc said that as there was a loss in the barley equalization account for the 1940-47 crop year ‘no fur- ther Pttyments were to be expect- .ed on barley delivered during the present crop year.

The oats equalization ' account for the crop year 1948-47’ would, however. remain open and net profits in that account, if any, would be distributed later to orc- ducers who delivered oats during the period from Aug. l. 1946. to July at. i947.

As for existing stocks which handlers and dealers would be re- quired to scll to the Wheat Board, these stocks under certain condi- tions would be returned to the Itcldcr for resale.

Mr. Gardiner said the payments on oats and barley for feeding pur- poses would have the effect of leaving the cost of those feed groin: to feeders aproximateiy at

Rhodes stated, "it was discovered that while the majority of Cana- dians favored pasteurization of milk, 42 pet‘ cent_didn't. feel that, any harm could come from dtinkw ing raw milk." This indicated at

The speaker declared that a _-cau:ed by drinking raw milk from cows infected dlsease—werc occurring on Island. This was a serious crlppfng

An form that. resembled rheuma- tism.

“The continued widespread sup- plying of raw milk to consumers can be detrimental to the IslamPs tourist itrlrluotry," he added. "Many of the people who come to undo)’ the many attractions on Prince Edward Island may be discouraged from returning or recommending it to their friends if they are forced to use raw milk or none at. all." ‘

Mr. C. M. Cox stated that last‘ year one tourist colony on the Is- land had petitioned that it be sup-Y plied’ with pasteurized milk. This had been done, at a loss to the company-supplying it, to maintain the goodwill of the visitors. .

Organizations in Charlottetown and throughout the province will be invited to distribute literature explaining the value of pasteuriz- ation as a gsrotectitan to nubile health. The support of the press. will also be sought. and arrange“ merits made for speakers to dis- cuss the subject before meetings.

Recognizing some of the dlfftcuifl ties in carrying out the pasteuriz- ation process in thinly populated areas, i-t was recommended that resolutions supporting pasteuriza- tion Qhould indicate that it he tione"'wlterever it is practicable to do a1."
