war! not for this fact, wouldobe receiving a great deal more for their efforts." he said. Ho observed that in this era of high costs it was difficult for farm- ers to show a profit and noted that many suggested remedies had been offered. He did not believe that an overall policy of floor pric- es would be a solution to the prob- lem because. as he noted. "we would soon have such a surplus that there would be no market for I good deal of our products." "I. Mchlutt noted the distinct trend towards greater mechaniz- ation of farming. In potato farm- ing he said the many machines in- volved from planting to picking have greatly reduced the labour clement. Tliesame he noted, was true of grain.
FARM EXODUS
The Third Prince member ob- served the exodus of farm people to the industrial areas of Cen- tral Canada but saw this as a re- petition of what took place some years ago when the exodus was to the Neil England States and
later to Western Canada.

U.I.C. BENEFITS
Mr. MacNutt saw the extension of unemployment benefits to the fishermen as a great boon to the industry. "It will mean that we will have a greater number oi men working for a longer season with resultant larger catches," he said.
The member from Third Prince thought it would be a great thing if Canada could secure equalin- tion of tariffs with the United Stat- es- He said he would be inclined to favour the 3756 cent tariff ra- ther than the 75 cent tariff which was in existence from 1930-1935 when it was noted that potato pric- es were never lower.
Mr. -MacNutt felt that the De-
By JACK BRAYLEY Canadian Press Staff Writer ABU SUWEIR. Egypt tCPl- Canada's first figh.'.ing troops for the United Nations Emergency Force are not prepared to do much fighting.
As a matter of fact the armored reconnaissance squadron is a com- promise of design, name and role evolved to fit the special job it has to do in Egypt as the mobile communications and reporting arm of Maj.-Gen. E. L. M. Burns' international police army.
Maj. R. B. iTackt Tackaberry of Camp Petuwawa. 0nt.. and (it- tnwa. its very regimental a d energetic commander. put it this way: "Just play down that we're a fighting unit. We can discour- age mobs, but we could never face up to an operational fighting role. LIGHTLY ARMED
"We're actually more a police reporting and preventative organ- lzntion with no warlike design at all. Our forte is our mobility, flex- ibility and communications."
In the first place. the speedy ferret scout cars of 6 Reconnais- sance Squadron are armed with only light machine guns and the crews with sicns.

Th 23 light-armor-plate ferret. which can hit 60 miles an hour and communicate by wireless for at least 2 miles. are patrolling a long beat from Gaza to the Gulf of Aqaba over highways. camel tracks and open desert and through mountain passes.
They work in the boiling sun in co-operation with a small number of more heavily-armed Yugoslav troops.
Their chief job is to patrol the gaps between the static infantry platoons dug in at check points along the demarcation line. They operate in independent groups. but usually sleep close to infantry units.
The squadron arrived here by air March ill. unloaded their scout cars a week later at Port Said, took desert training. and finally had a ceremonial parade and be- came operational.

While he agreed that the Depart- ment was doing all in its power in regard to snow remogal, Mr. MacNutt felt that-some of the out- lying districts were getting poo,- Iervice, especially those located long distances from when the Dlows were stationed. COMMUNITY SPIRIT The member t” ,, community spirit of getting out to break the roads should be reviv- ed. He said this would ensure bet- ter attendance at school as well as more regular mail delivery. ' s. MacNutt said this spirit could and should be e ” s' to include niral roadside beautification. Mr. MacNutt felt that there was too much stress being put on po- tato growcrs. He said many farm- ers could get along with a small acreage and keep hogs the feed for which could be delivered at the door. He said he knew of a number of farmers who were mak- ing real good moneyfrom hog rais- ng.

POULTRY FARMERS ATTENTION
Jenltliris Brothers Limited are pleased to announce that plans have
been finalised for the erection of a new building for the purpose of evis- cerating poultry (chicken. fowl and turkey). This unit will be operated in connection with our present poultry killing plant, and when completed will be modern and up to date in every respect.
As an encouragement to farmers to produce more poultry without
the worry of a market, our requirements this year will be approximately 0'19 mmloll Pounds. which we anticipate buying here on the Island. The
total production for the Island last year was approximately 1,250,000. Of particular interest to the farmer who exports his poultry. the facilities of this plant will be available to all farmers where your poultry
(chicken, fowl and turkey) will be dressed, evisoerated
tagged, and if
you desire, vacuum sealed in cryovsc bags. and packed under government
inspection.
You will mean that last year local farmers were unable to market their turkeys. due to the fact that foreign evisccratod turkey and chicken
