As the defence began its case it was clear that the murder trial. which Wednesday became the longest in British history. will be fought out almost entirely on med- ical grounds.

Defence counsel Geoffrey Law- rence said the defendant will not be called to the witness box.

Dr. Ilarlnan startled the court by contol-ting his face and disap- pearing from sight in a mock col-

lapse. CONVULSIONS ABSENT

Plans were discussed for cater- iniz at it wedding reception in June. arrangements to be finalised at the neln meeting. Mrs. Percy Mvers reported for the work corn- mittee and material was distributed to the members.

land products were just as good- "I always make it a point to ask for an Island product and if it is not available. I'll walk to an- other store to get it." he added. OUTSIDE INTERFERENCE

"The trouble here on the Island is when you get a thing going good. some collosus from away wil come along and closes it out." said Mr. MacKinnon "This was true of the Can Factory in Charlottetown."

He explained that this can fac- Iory bad ones been run by a lo- cal man but when he became ill and couldn't run it any longer there was no one to take over. The business was sold to the American Can Company and right from the start they began to find things wrong with it. The result was that it' was closed and fifty people were put out of work.

Premier: Couldn't we start up another factory"?

The Minister: "It might be a little harder now." ,

The Minister replied to the Op- position Leader's criticism of set- ting up a second plant in Souris. "l have always been convinced and I am at convinced that there is sufficient -quanties of fish around our shores to keep two fillet inag plants going and I think if -we get two or three more boats to land fish at Souril. we will have nothing to worry about." BEES EXPANSION

"I believe that I is J expansion in our fishing industry can take place if we can only get our fishermen to try improved methods of fishing". said Mr.Mac- Kinnon. He was thinking in parti- cular of the change over from hand lining to long lining.

The Minister explained that within the ant year a number of Island oysters have been shipped from the Island to stock beds in Nova-Isotia. Ha said sonte people had criticized this move on the part of the Federal Department of Fisheries.

Mr. Macliinnon said the oysters shipped to Nova Scotia were the rough overslzed. oysters that could not be sold on the regular market and the oyster fishermen who were selling them were getting the regular market price. He recalled that the first biological station to be established in eastern Canada was in P.E.l. "it would be unfair of its to refuse this privilege to a sister province when we were so fortunate in obtaining it in the first place,” he said.

R.R. . "Will our oyster beds stand this removal of oysters from theln. Some people think we are in danger of depleting our local supply.” a

Mr. MacKinnon: "I can't see where it is any different selling the oysters for that purpose and selling them to some store or- restaurant. Only the big rough oy- sters are used and the fisher- man is getting the market price for them."

Mr. Macliinnon went into some detail in explaining some experi- ments the Department was carry- ing out in regard to trout fishing and the use of the by-pass. The experiment showed that there were more large fish came into the pond than out of it.
