Mr. Lorsn Baker. Director Ir , i and Comsumer Services. Ottawa stated that if we want to build up the foreign market for frozen fish we must have sustain- ed supplies. There is a place for shore, trawler and dragger fishing. he added.

The 1962 East Coast Fisheries Conference will be held at st. John's, Newfoundland. The dele- gates yesterday formally accepted the invitation of the Newfound- land Government and salt Cod Fish Association extended Wednes- day by Mr. H. Fu. V. Earle. I

Part of the final session yester- day was spent discussing advertis- ing. Mr. John Myrlck of Tlgnlsh got the discussion underway. He maintained that there were too

' many small companies here and this Province did not maintain a continuous supply of fish to war- rant advertising.

Mr. John Martin of Montreal susgested that the industry set aside eight cents a cwt. on all pro- cessed fish which could be used for advertising purposes. This is the responsibility of the industry not the storekeepers. he added.

Mr. Gustave Bedard, publicist. for the Quebec Department of Game and Fisheries thought that some pressure should be put on the re- tallers to advertise. In Montreal Home of the stores keep one week's fish until the next-week, he etrled. 'Increaees in sales due to adver-

ALLIED SHIPS

A: Continued from page 1

Paul and two destroyers shelled dock and harbor facilities at Inchon, which the Allies abandoned the nikht of Jan. (-5.

other spokesmen said one of the destroyers was Canadian, but re- fused to let it be identified for security reasons. Three Canadian ships-the Cayuga. Athabascan and Nootka-are operating with the il.N. flotilla.

Little Ground Action

On the ground only one Allied patrol reported action. It clashed with a pocket of Reds near Yolu, 40 miles southeast of Seoul. and killed 15 of the enemy.

The U. 8. Eighth Army reported 3.000 Chinese and Korean Rods were digging in 11 miles northwest of Yoju. Contact apparently had not yet been made with this force

For the second straight day a, tank-led Allied patrol rumbled 10 miles north from Woniu on the central front. It entered the village of I-Ioengsong, 33imlles south of the 38th parallel boundary of South Korea, alnst no opposition.

I-Ioeng rig is 55 miles due east of Seoul. It represents the. north- ernmost Allled thrust since U. N. troops abandoned the south Korean capital of Seoul Jan. 4.

Allied troops first reoccupled the town Wednesday, then pulled back south Wednesday night.

Chief Air Action

In Thursday's chief air action. Allied bombers wrecked the rail hub town of Chunchon, 30 miles northwest of Hoengsong and about lellglht. miles south of the 38th para-

e.

The roving Allied ground units reported only a screen of North Korean troops holding the Corn- munlst front along the Han River south of Seoul.

Allied intelligence officers specu- lated that the strong forces of Chinese once manning the western front had pulled back for these Doesible reasons:

1. To set a Allies:

2. Because of the pounding Allied planes were giving their supply lines; and

3. on orders from Pelplng bending U.S. negotiations.

MacArthur's Views

At his Tokyo headquarters. Mec- Arthua-who is '11 years old today- tald AP correspondent Russell Brlnes that the Chinese Communists can supply about 1.500.000 troops at the Yalu River boundary from their bases in Manchurla.

"But they lose 50 per cent of their equipped frontline strength by the time they cross the 38th parallel," the General said. "They will lose maybe another 10 per cent 50 miles farther south.” -

The enemyls difficulties get pro- gressively worse the farther south he moves, MacArthur said.

"He will reach a point where he cannot put any more equipped troops at the front than I have- and that will be bad for him. "we're going to give the Chinese a bloody nose somewhere in the south."

MacArthur reiterated that the Chinese "will never drive me into the sea" fi-mi Korea.

lie declared also that "there can be no turning back".g-gm the war against Communism in Asia.

speaking before I. well attended meeting hold in the Town Hall. Al- bertcn, last night, Mr. Peter Pate. of the civil defence organisation for Prince Edward Island. gave a thorough review of the work which has been accomplished since his appointment to this work. i

Mr. Pate said that up to the pres- ent time practically all transporta- tion fecllltles have been listed, in- cluding the Maritime Central Air. ways. the I. M. T. bus company and the Canadian National Railways.

He said that practically all doc- tors in Prince Edward Island have been listed as well as drug stores. first aid stations and location of district nurses and dentists.

Mr. Pate stated that cornmittees have been organized in all the larg. er centres and all Women's Instit- utes with the names of the district presidents and secretaries tabled for instantaneous contact. All the fire departments in the Province. with what. equipment would be ne- cessary to bring them up to a big - er standard of efficiency. have been listed. Names of Fire Chiefs have been listed also. -

He pointed out that therelwill be work for such groups as Boys Scouts and church groups.

Telegraph, telephone and all water supplies have been checked.

A complete list has now been made of all hotels. cabim and lodges with their capacity and ac- commcdatlons.

Mr. Pate said that one of the most important bits of informa- tion gathcrcd was a list of all short, wave operators in the district and he stated that in case of an emer- gency these would be or inesum. able value. The survey thus far would clearly show that in case cu” an emergency ”we are now prepared. under normal circumstances to ev- acuate from any central point in the Province to any other desig- nated point approximately one hun- dred thousand evacuees within five days." This however, would include housing cnly and would not include beds, bedding or food.

He said also that insofar as med- ical supplles are concerned the Maritime Central Airways are pre- pared at .a moment's notice to fly in extremely large quantities if necemary.

dusiry can do it for that."

Mr. Camille Archamfoauli, vice- prcs-idcht of the Canadian Auto- motive Transportation Association, slated that 43,000 trucks operating for hire in Canada had moved 20,000,000 ions of freight during 1950-an all-time record. About 600,000 trucks were in operation during the year.

Changing Conditions

He noted that freight traffic literally had been driven lo the highways due to changing con- ditions since the 19203. "The de- pression practically made the trucking industry as it compelled the .erliippct's to get faster and more frequent freight service at a low- er cost," he stated.

He reviewed the growth of the trucking industry and the part it played in different emergencies particularly the railway strike last August. U

He stated that refrigerated van line service. offered by Maritime Trucking Companies meant a widening of the market for the catch of Canada's east. coast fish- ing industry.

”The trucking industry is not static but dynamic. .There is no better example of the truth of that statement than the manner in mltlch the trucking industry is meeting the demands of industry and agriculture by i.-ransporllng products, requiring refrigeration." Mr. Roland Jerry, Toronto, technical editor, Motor Truck and Coach magazine. stated that the operators of Canada's refrigerator trucks are opening up for Caned. ian fisheries and food producers a new era in fast, long distance transportation of perishable ship- ments from the source to the con- sumer.

"There appears to be no limit to the scope or practical application of this newest and fastest growing section of the commercial highway transportation industry in provid-

ing shipper; with the quick and. direct service they require." he said.

1-le told his audience that long

distance hauls from Edmonton to Vancouver. Toronto to Jackson- ville, Florida and Halifax lo Bos- ton and Toronto were cornmea- place among the operators of re- fi-igerator truck equipment.

Mr. Eugene Goirnan of the Ex- tension Department of st. Dun- etan's University stated that he had been told that the rates had a big bearing on the debate be- tween freight and rail haul and that (ruck rates were cheaper. Another factor was the temper- ature. He had been told that trucks can hold goods at 10 below zero and that they were working in England on the basis of 20 be- low zero.

Cars or Trucks?

Mr. J. L. Townsend. Montreal, of the O. N. B... stated that over the years the fishing industry had been looking for increasing colder refrigeration temperatures and were now asking for zero temper- atures. He added that it would cost a lot of money to supply these cars and he was wondering wheth- er the railways sbouldibuilii such care or leave it to the trucks.

and London are more troubled than at any time since the last. war.

Seek To Influence U. B.

The British Government has been trying through the American ran- bassy in London and its own Em- bassy here and through public statements to force a modification of America's Far Eastern policies. The aim is to swing those policies away from what. Britain fears is a one-way route to war.

Sir Oliver Franks, the British Ambassador, is an almost daily vis- itor at the state Department.

Two points are fundamental:

i. Britain and other European countries strongly dislike any div- ersion of American strength from Western Europe. The U.S. feels committed to oppose Communist aggression in the Far East as well as in the West.

2. Britain still believes, as it did when it recognized Communist ohina months ago, that the way to solve the China problem is to drive a wedge between Pelping and Mos- cow. U..S. policy seems to be based on the assumption that this now is impossible.

Britain has been urging the U. S. to do everything possible to avoid a Far Eastern -war and to -eek a set- tlement in Korea at almost any price. '

A foundation of Britain's position is its determination to keep India in the Commonwealth if possible.

The su-m total of all this activity has been to create a situation in which many Britons feel "he U. S. is moving toward large-scale war while Americans feel that Britain is driving toward appeasement.

it, imposed because of trans- shipment from and to the Is- land's, narrow-gauge railway.

2. The first-class t.arlffs- basic rates-between New- foundland and points outside the Maritlmcs, from which the Island draws most of its con- sumcr goods, are to be reduced by specific amounts for four different Newfoundland regions. These reductions were estimated as running between 15 and 25 -percent.

other Reductions

The other nine classes of rates are

reed on proportions of the first- class rates. which means they will be reduced along the line. Certain special rates that are related to the "class" rates also would be re- duced.

It was expected this would result in decreases on such Newfoundland- bound consumer goods as flour. meats. canned goods and automo- biles, while there would be re- ductions on such shipments as fish going from Newfoundland to the mainland.

Another provision in the Board's decision was that the new rates are to be subject to the full effect of the Maritime Freight Rates Act of 1927, under which the Mairltimes receive 20-per-cent rate reductions on certain hauls with the Federal '1 asury reimbursing the railways.

The Board turned down New- foundland on one point of its application. That was its request for the establishment of ”'town tariffs" and "commodity" rates. which are special decreased charges applying according to circumstances.

May Cur Time Needed For Pilot's Licence

GOES ON RAMPAGE

LAKE SUCCESS. N. Y.. Jan. 24 -(AP)-A husky man shouting "why don't you stand up for peace" went on a rampage in the cmpty United Nations political committee room today. wrecking chairs, tearing down country name plates before he was subdued by guards. U. N. police said the man gave his name as Joseph Garnba. 46. of New York. He was taken to hospital for examination.

N three compartments could supply three wholesalers whereas this was nearly impossible in railway shipments.

"T-he quicker truck haul en- ables you to sell the product in perfect condition." he stated. "The railway is good in some cases." he

eded. "1 do use it yei, when i am stuck."

Cream Of The Business

Mr. Townsend stated that the railways carried about 95 per cent of the freight but the trucks rc- celvcd the cream of the business in the other five per cent. The loss to the trucking trade was keeping the freight rates that much higher! he stated.

Mr. O. C. Young. pnincipal re- searoh engineer. presently station- ed at Ottawa. stated that the ans- wer to preserving fish began right on tho boat. I believe it portion of the fish will have to be frozen at sea and then we can get high quality fish to inland people.

He noted that in many cases the fish were in, boats for several days before it reached shore. if the fish is seven days old when it readies port it has lost one-third of its normal quality.

All-iiough freezing does not do a great deal of harm to the fish it does something to it, he stated. He showed that the longer a fish is stored the more it degraded.

Chairman of the trucking session was Mr. J. C. Morrow of Lunar.- burg. N. S. Messrs. Camille Arch-

unvbsull, Roland Jerry and A. E. Day were discussion leaders.
