The need for an extensive cam- rﬁign to promote the sale of Island manufactured products within the Province is suggested in the report of the provincial Trade Director, W. E. Agnew, which forms part of the annual report of the Department‘ of In- dustry and Natural Resources, tabled recent.ly in the Legisla- ture.

In addition to outlining the work carried out by the trade division, this annual report contains a 12- month review of work accom- plished by the other sections of the Department: transportation and geological survey submitted by the director, B. Graham Rogers; and town planning, by

It also includes the annual re- port of the provincial fire mar- shal, T. Earl MacLeod, and the chief electrical inspector, H. H. Poole. ‘ ‘

All reports are for the year end- ing March 31, 1957.

BETTER STREAMLINING

“We can produce large quan- titles of strawberries, blueber- ries, vegetables and other small fruits, “the Trade Director notes," but we must go in for better s-trearnlinin-g of our pro- ducts -to lower costs without de- triment to quality. ' “We would then not only be able to get a larger share of our own market, but sell more of our pro- ducts abroad,” he added.

of fish.”

Trade with Newfoundland was estimated to have reached. a total of seven million dollars, in 1956, an increase of 20 per cen-t over the previous year.

The demand for frozen, chilled meats, and poultry in Newfound- land is increasing each year. the Trade division report states, adding that “with a well packag- ed pnoduct” P. E. Islanders could greatly increase their shipments of eggs to Canada's newest Pro- vince, which imports annua1ly‘in the vicinity of one million, five hundred thousand dozen.

This Division is also credited with the establishment in Ger- many of a market for “fresh frozen eels.”

MARKED INCREASES

Marked increases in all clas- sifications of traffic moving in and out of the Province in 1956 in comparison to the movement ten years prior are shown in a table appended to the report of the director of transportation, Mr. Graham Rogers.

On the Borden route, autos fer- ried increased by 100,220; pas- sengers ferried increased by 175,-

period, smoking (cigars, cigaret- tes, pipes, matches) was blamed for 58; electricity accounted for 37, and stoves, furnaces, boilers and pipes were said to have caused 35. Chimneys and flues, overheated and defective, ac- counted for the largest monetary loss in this group —— $54,235.

The origin of 83 tires reported in this period could not be deter- mined. These ﬁre-s resulted in losses estimated at $191,641, the Fire Marshal stated.

In this fiscal period 145 fires were reported in Charlottetown,

zealously seeking to maintain its iiidepeiideiice of Moscow."

Dulles also defended economic assistance to India and Poland. He spoke out under questioning at a Senate foreign relations com- mittee hearing on the adminis- tratiou’s $3,942,092,000 foreign aid bill.

In a prepared statement Dulles warned against slashing this fig- ure lest it cut employment" and heighten the recession.

Republicans led by Senator Styles Bridges of New Hamp- shire, the Senate Republican pol- icy committee chairman, are seeking to eliminate Yugoslavia and Poland entirely from the pro- gram and others are striking at Indian aid. _\

Dulles said that in granting aid to those countries, the state de- partment is not guided by ‘sen- timental considerations.”
