M,-, Hermansen is presently mimig a survey of conditions in the .liai'itimes. He told the Guprd- ,a,, last night that shoe prices ll'0ul(l definitely be higher this 1,11 - possibly as much as 3 per cent above present levels. He at- tributed this to several factors ,,,,miy the current shortage of hides at a time when there is also ',. shortage of finished leather. An- nthcr factor is the demands being mail? by the Government for com- bat boots for the troops which will use up all the available heavy lea- thrr.

THE GUARDIAN.

To Purchase Wheel Chairs For Polio Ward In Sanatorium

Five wheel chairs will be pur- chased for use in the Polio ward at the Provincial Sanatoriuin. it. was decided yesterday evening at 0- Special meeting of the Provin- cial Charter of the Canadian Foundation for Pollornyeiitls. The meeting. held in the board room above the Super Market, was pre- W395 0V" by Mr. Lincoln Dewar.

The purchasing of braces. spe- cial shoes. occupational therapy ellulpment and educational needs was also discussed.

A proposed change in the setup of the Foundation was outlined by Mr. Dewar. The new organiza- tion. should it come into effect, would provide each province with its own Foundation with a head office in Toronto to act as a co- ordinating factor. Under the new set up each province would be re- eponsiible for collecting and dis- tributing its own funds.

The Provincial Chapter has a bank balance totalling 36,685.17. it was reported by the treasurer, Mr, Mellish.

The President. Mr. Dewar. and the Secretary, Mrs. Fred Gates, were appointed directors to the national board. Judge C. St. Clair Trainer and Mr. Mellish were named as alternates.

The sacrifice of Mrs. Austin Johnston, st. George's. in teach- ing a. young polio victim, Miss Mary Anne MacPhec, gained high praise from the members. Mrs. Johnston, mother of a large fam- ily, teaches school at De Gros Marsh, four miles from her home but gives up two hours of her time free of charge every evening to instruct. 13 year old Mary Anne, who is her next door neighbor.

The young girl was stricken with polio in 1946 and spent two years in a. clinic at Charlotte- town. As the result of Mrs. John- ston's sacrifice during the past three years, she is now in Grade

II

Miss Katherine Jackson, physio- therapist at the Polio Ward, spoke briefly pointing out the needs for polio patients. These included wheel chairs. educational and oc- cupational therapy material and games apparatus.

Dr. J.A. MacMlilnn of the Med- ical Advisory Committee pointed out that equipment such as wheel chairs and games apparatus could be purchased by the Foundation. The opinion of the Advisory Com- mittee on the purchase of educa- tional material differed from that of the Foundation, he pointed out.

An extensive report on cam- paign organization was given by Mrs. Inez Sweetwood. An effort to obtain an accurate picture of the condition of people who suffered or are suffering from polio in the Province was discussed.

The granting of bursaries for the study of occupational therapy was discussed and it was disclosed that at least one student would be interested in obtaining aid.

MR. GIIIIIIINEII (ioiitiiiued from page 1

Government has not yet purchas- ed any butter at its floor price of 58 cents a pound for this year. This did not mean, he said. that it would not get any butter iieforc autumn. It meant that farmers are able to sell their butter at a price higher than the floor price.

Should it be necessary to im- port butter this year. he said. it will be done by the Federal -Gov- ernment and not by the trade.

A brief exchange occurred after John Blackmore (SC-Lethforldgei asked Mr. Gardiner to place on the record something to show that federal assistance has been equal- ly divided among farmers across the country.

A. .7. Brooks (PC-Royall inter- jt-clad that the Marltlmes did not get s65.000.000 as western wheat

farmers did from the govern-I merit. recently.

Mr. Gardiner said that over a period of about 10 years about

s731,000.000 has been paid in sub- sidies. premiums and other pay- ments to farmers. The record .would show that the money was divided as equally as possible among all farmers.
