iand seed and are prepared to pay the necessary premium to have it. He said. "It is almost foolish to suppose that the United States Government would take. against their own producers, any retal- iatory measures ln the form of an increased duty on their necessary seed because Canada might see Ht to equalize her duties with those of U.S.A. on table potatoes. In so far as the tariff regulations in both countries are concerned, certified seed potatoes and table potatoes are listed for duty under separate headings".

FEDERATION SERCRETARY

In commenting upon the report of the Tariff Board, Mr. J. Lincoln Dewar. secretary of the P. E. I. Federation of Agriculture said: "Recent statements by the Hon. Mr. Gardiner and the report of the Tariff Board are straws in the wind which appear to indicate that Canadian potato growers may not look forward to much relief in the form of tariffs from the Gov.- ernment of Canada.

"While it is. of course. under- stood that the Tariff Board was not asked to make recommendations yet. the emphasis which the report places upon the export market for seed is a thinly veiled suggestion that nothing should be done which mu induce retelliatory action from the United States. Volume wise and as a dollar earner the tahleatock markets of Central Con- Idl are of far greater importance to Island producers. This is a mar- ket on which we require protect- ion and it is regrettable that the Tariff Board has apparently over- looked its importance and dwells upon the value of the export seed market which. of course. is in a small way a dollar earner for Can- ads.

DEALERS' VIEWPOINT

Mr. W. N. Wilson said. "The report of the Tariff Board on potato tariffs seems to indicate that the agitation for a tariff on U. S. potatoes entering Canada originated in the Maritimes."

"Actually British Columbia and Ontario have been more outspok- on than we have. although we do agree with them." 'he said. "The Tariff Board hesitates to recom- mend tariffs on U. S. table pota- toes enterlng Canada, fearing that this might bring reprisals in the form of additional tariff on Canadian seed entering U. S. A."

Mr. Wilson points out that only ten per cent of the Prince Ed- ward island crop goes to the United States as seed and the continued expanding markets in Canada are many time! mt?" important. "This market," he said, "is the one that the Cana- dian tariff would protect and it is felt that in asking equality on our table stock movement. we should not be risking any repris- ala on our seed demand in the South."

All the seating area has been ,ainted; the wait- ing rooln and canteen has been enlarged, with lavatory facilities in all rooms; for hockey teams has been added, with lavatory and double showers provided in each. a heating system is being installed for all rooms; and an elevated press and radio gondola has been constructed.

Altogether the improvements and additions. coupled with the in- stallation of the artificial ice plant combine to make this rink one of the finest in the Maritlmes.
