Live Fox And Mink Show Gets Underway In City; Report Quality Very High

The 22nd live fox show and fifth annual live mink show of the Prince Edward Island Fur Breed- ers Association got underway at the Provincial Exhibition grounds yesterday morning. About 260 foxes consisting of standard sil- vers, white-marked silvers. plat- inums and pearl piatinums are entered by top Island breeders in the various classes. They are described by Judge George A. Callback of aummeraide as "very good." The mink in various shades from standard to whites number about 200 and these have certain- ly improved in quality very much since the first show was held some five years ago. Then the breeders had mostly standard mink, with only a few entries of mutations. Now they have been in close contact and co-operation with leading breeders in the Un- ited statesland have in the var- ious cagos real quality animals, some of the best of which could be shown at the biggest exhibitions in the U. S. A. and would be aer- ious contenders in the prize list

Can't Be Duplicated

The very bad weather on Mon- day may have cut. down the num- ber of entries as several corn- petitora who were just wavering as whether to enter or not decided to drop out. However. the show now in progress is one that can't be duplicated anywhere else in Can- ada for quality animals .and as far as silver fox and mutations are concerned it can't be duplicated on the American continent for the reason that the old and successful breeders and exhibitors of the past have held on to their best foxes and are therefore not slipping in

Would M23. Immediate Boost Bul Saving laler

OTTAWA. Nov. 11 -(CP)-The railways said today a proposed new-system of setting rail charges would result in freight rates lower than under the present basis.

Though the method calls for im- mediate rate increases. the Rail- way Association oi Canada con- tends that eventually it would bring about economies making lower tolls possible.

The submission was made to the Board of Transport Commis- sioners by John L. O'Brien. coun- sel for the association and the Canadian Pacific Railway, as the C. P. R. opened evidence to back up the railways application for the radical shift to the "rats-base, rate-of return" system of fixing earnings.

The C. P. R. Proposal

Under this proposal, the board would determine the net invest- ment in the "yardstick" C. P. R.'s rail property and allow rates that would yield the company a. specif- ied annual return on the invest- ment, At present, freight rates for all railways are set on the basis of the Canadian Pacific's current financial needs as. decided by the board.

The C. P. E. says it should be allowed a 6 1-2 per cent return on an investment base of 51,146,000,- 000, and provincial counsel oppos- ing the move claimed yesterday this would call for a freight-rate jump of between 30 and 33 per cent. However Mr. O'Brien said to- day that at the moment the re- quest is for a rate increase to yield a five-per-cent return.

(On an unofficial calculation. that would take. a freight-rasedns crease of around 20 per cent. -The railways now have an application for a nine-per-cent boost before

(By Norman Altatedter)

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y., Nov. ll-(CP)-Britain today offered four principles to Russia as a basis for settling the war-prison- ers issue blocking aicease-fire in Korea.

Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden told the United Nations in Britain's first major policy ad- dress to the current General As- sembly that he does not despair that talks here can help towards a Korean settlement.

Eden said he was "encouraged" by the fact that Foreign Minister Andrei Vishnisky of Russia had not said that prisoners should he forced hack to their homelands at the point of a bayonet.

ers who say they fear to return to Communist hands.

E(len”s Principles Eden said he believes these are

the principles on which an agree- ment should be based:

1. Every prisoner has the right to be released on the conclusion of an armistice.

2. Every prisoncr has the

right. to be speedily repatriat- ed.

3. The detaining side has the duty in provide facilities for repatriation. .

4. The detaining side has no right to use force in connec- tion with the disposal of prisoners. "In other words, after an armistice a prisoner of war may not be either forcibly detained or forcibly repatriated."
