Mr. MecKinnon: “It does not matter what proposal is made, there will be an odd criticism from this side of the House and the other side is lined up solid. We want power to deal with a situation that has been a millstona around the necks- of our farmers and fisher- men. If we come to the place where we are encroachinl $00 mm!!! on Socialism, that is the time to step in. But it is not only cold storage that we may want. to deal with.

But the department should "scar- cely be expected to make large- scele outlay in consumer's advertis- ing unless the industry is willing to join with it in advertising expendi- tures of its owrl, and in a general campaign towards insuring proper distribution of fish products to the consumer or retail level."

Stresses Serious Burden On Farms And Fisheries

Declaring that Prince Edward Is-

land's main sources of income, agri- culture snd fishing, could not carry the present load of debt, which is estimated at the and of the incom- ing year at over $15,000,000, Mr. R. L. Burge (2nd. King's) stated in his speech in the Budget Debate on Tuesday evening that the only valid comparison regarding the size of

He stated he was diae pointed in Islconwocd Bern whic . he had hoped would have been e model for the average Island farmer. However, the cost was prohibitive and the construction was too cold and damp.

Mr. Burge approved of the grants to pure-bred breeders and felt that the work of the Junior ills-mars.

" ‘Apart from any special under- taking which applies to Prince Ed- ward Island, we have undertaken to build s Trans-Canada Highway of the most modern type. That undertaklnl lpplies tn every prov- ince, and will include a National Highway to this province, of which the ferry service will form an in-

Mir. Barbour: _"We have assets."

Mr. Mathleson: "Yes. We have some assets. But overspending does not increase net value."

Using Churchill's word “squand- ermsnia". the speaker stated the Government lacks a sense of pro- portion in its expenditures - especislly at Beach Grove.

"I submit that the building is built very extravsgantly with B. O. i5!‘ Ind new forms of plywood — like an ultra-modern hotel.” he declared.

‘The money wasted therewill not do the people who are to be huused there any good," he added. "The cost will eventually lie on the primary producer and will have to be paid for some day with poor prices."
