Mr. MacDonald told his fellow Islanders here that the highlight of his visit to Edmonton was meeting Hon. J. J. Btiwien. Lieu- tenant-Governor of Alberta and a former P. E. Islander.

"Although the cold weather of the past week has restricted ship- ments to some extent. the potato movement during the month has been good," said Mr. Donald A. MacDonald. chairman of the P. 1. Potato Marketing Board yesterday. He reports that 993 carloads have been shipped by rail and the equivalent of M0 car- loads by water and by truck to make a total of almost 1,200 car- loads.

Mr. MacDonald points out, how- ever. that the total movement this season is over 1.000 carloads less than a year ago. New Brunswick shipments are down to a similar extent. while the Maine move- ment is far below normal - - - fact about one half of a year ago.

”The backward movement of Maine stocks." said Mr, MacDon- ald. ”ls causing some concern to the whole potato trade." He goes on to point out that their move- ments intn starch in similar to a year ago and the fact that they

of Maine holdiilgs. ”This of course

is not surprising, when their weather conditions during the growing and harvesting season

are considered." he said.

Mr. MacDonald states that the American market has not chang- ed very much during the past two weeks. Trade seems to be very cautious. with supplies being bought only as they are needed. In Canada. the Montreal market is rather dull. Track holdings are very light for this season of the year and that market seems in be drawing most of its supplies from New Brunswick and Maine. Tor- onto. which was quoting 82.25 for Island 755 a week ago went up as

in high as 32.40 the first part of the

week but has since receded to its former level.

Mr. MacDonald says there is considerable variation in the price being paid to Island producers. It ranges from 81.40 to 31.50 per 75 lbs. bulk tablestock. Green Moun- taln tnbiestock is being favoured in some markets and command a

premium over these prices.

lS'rress Urgent Need For

The urgent need for a new pumper was stressed in the report of the Chairman of the Fire Committee submitted last night at the annual meeting of the City Council by Coun. Rogers.

He admitted the serious fin- ancial situstion.of the City at the present time and pointed out that he would be willing to forego his demands for this im- portant piece of equipment for another year. were it not for the danger and ueriousneu of the situation.

Coun. Rogers pointed out the mutual agreement maintained with the areas adjacent to the City and told of the many calls for assistance that have come from areas outside theaa areas. He informed the Council that in View of the present act up in the Department a policy had to be adopted which rohiblted the Fire Department mm answering calla outside a radius of five miles and than only in cases of dire emergency. -

The Chairman of the Fire Com- mittee felt it his duty to present these facts to the citizens. to that the Council could be cleared

A busy year was reported in the street department by Coun- clllor P. C. Mccomiac. chairman of the Street Committee. Coun. Mccorniac was not present at the annual meeting of the City Coun- oil and his report was read by Coun. A. Gorinley.

Expenditure in this department amounted to 5146.600 for street mainfanance while street paving. improvements, storm sewers and side walks accounted for an-

For the first time this winter the number 'of people drawing unemployment insurance benefits through the National Employment Office in Charlottetown has ex- ceeded the total number who drew last winter. At the present time 2332 people are in receipt of ben- efits through the local office. but by far the largest majority of these. namely 1496. live either in the small towns or in the rural countryside of Kings and Queens Counties. The Charlottetown Of- fice services all of Kings and Queens Counties but not Prince County. Of the 2,332 people draw; ing benefits, 836 live either in Charlottetown or close enough. to call at the local office for their benefits. Non-residents of Char- .ottetown are paid by warrant once every two weeks.

There has been not improve- ment in the employment situation in the past week, and little pros- pact that any work will develop during the winter months. About twenty men found temporary work during the week shovelling snow at the C. N. R. depot and in the railroad yards.

The Federal Government is making sustained efforts, and using every means possible to find at least a partial solution to

l unemployment. It has enlisted some of the top brains in Canadian manufacturing circles; heads of great construction com- panies. and many men with ex- tensive business experience, to explore ways and means of cut- ting down the yearly curtailment of work throughout the nation.

Prospects for employment in

Lite Spring, especially in the con- struction industry, appear bright with several big projects approv- ed, some of which are already underway. The Local Employment Advis- ory Committee, however, will urge that construction and other work be resumed on a full scale basis at the earliest possible mo- ment. It is pointed out that con- struction work is delayed in the Spring quite often needlessly, and that many jobs could start in March or at the very latest early In April.

Contractors. businessmen in general, and the City of Char- Iottetown. will be urged by the

Employment Advisory Committee to get work going as early asl possible this Spring. and to dela)”

Coun. Mccorniac showed that the program included extensive resurfacing, patching and a large amount of new sidewalk laid. In addition to this several blocks of new pavement were laid.
