”1s government something apart and in opposition to business? Over a period of 40 years we have had 3. pretty long succession of governments dedicated to the fur- therance of enterprise by those who had enterprise." ,

Dr. Faribault said business men should "get back into politics." They hadn't bothered enough about it for too long.

Mr. Fraser said he had been minded a "hot potato" when ask- ed to outline problems arising from direct competition between government enterprises and pri- vate companies-such as the two major railway systems, radio and television and the National Film Board.

CRITICIZES CBO

The railway situation had its origins in history and a reason- able mode of operation had been worked out. Both railways tried to nialntsin a climate of private en- terprise.

lln regard to other examples, there was ”nesd for an -.abattoir for government sacred cows, and first. CBC should be sent to the slaughterhouse."

It was dedicated to the task of defining a vague entity called Canadian culture, and apparently was out to slay a dragon called alien American culture.

''As a native Nova Scotian I am indifferent to the nonsense preach. ed by those who seek to save me from the Americans. I would raaher be saved from the social- 5 '..

In regard to the National Pilm board and some government pub- lications, agencies of a. government "must conceive political utopias in the climate of the prevailing pai- iticsi party. A free press must be in the hands of people who are ree."

"The CDC. National Film Board and some government periodicals preached economic collectivism and aolitlcal freedom at the same

me."

SUGGEST! REMEDY

Mr. Mansur said the remedy for Mr. Fraser was to get elected to Parliament "where he can make such remarks." His remarks had been "a little unkind."

Replying to questions concerning ffovernment efficiency, Mr. Men- siir said he had yet to see any- thing superior in business to the nnerstion of family allowances in the welfare branch. some depart- ments might not have such a high standard and he didn't know whether or not the average was better than in business.

In regard to taxation he had seen no indication that it unduly interfered with the country's busi- ness, and post-war capital expan- sion "was clear evidence that not too many limitations had been put on private incentive through the taxation structure.”

Mr. Lainontagne saw the future role of government as a changing one. Privsia initiative would play the dominant role in long - term omnomic development, but gox- rinment would have to step in to

OTTAWA (CP)- It cost idl to run a farm last August than a year ago, the bureau of statistics reported Tuesday. -

The all-Canada composih index for commodities and services used by farmers stood at 229 in August. down 1.4 per cent from 229.1 in August, 1992. However, the index was up from 224.0 last April.

lscluaive of living costs. the in- dais dropped to 230.7 from 243.0 a year ago but advanced from 288 in A rli. e index is based on 1285- 2 pricls equalling 100.

Farm wage rates advanced slightly between April and August. but stayed below t is August. 1953. level. The index moved up 2.0 per cent to 463.2 in August from 450.9 in April.

Finds aim

Marketing Board.

"Some remedial action will have to be taken." Mr. MacDonald add- ed. "Perhaps the best remedy would be to discontinue having Prince Edward Island potatoes stamped on jute bags and depend entirely on standard uniform tags which will clearly indicate both the variety packed and the actual source oi origin.

"The Potato Board has already taken initial steps towards the general use of a more standard tag by all shippers, and further consideration will now be given to the most practical way of pre- venting the continuation oi these unethical merchandising practices which have been disclosed by in- spection officers."

DEALERS ASSOCIATION

Commenting on the situation. Mr. E. D. Raid. secretary of the P. l.I. Turnip and Potato Dealers Association. complimented Mr. El- lis on bringing such practices to light. lie was aware that such was going on but due to the abscence of legislation in Quebec prohibiting the use oi second hand bags, there was little that could be done on an inter-provincial level.

He agreed with Mr. Ellis that an employee placed at the receiving point would do much to prevent such practices. He felt that the time has come when Prince Ed- ward Island should have a termin- al inspector in such large centres as Boston. Montreal and Toronto, who would be in a position to act as an arbitrator when unsatisfact- ory inspection had been made.

Mr. Reid expressed the opinion that if'sii the dealers and selling agencies saw fit to act together on the matter that the alleged abuses could be quickly remedied.

Dr. Farlbault said that in a country the size of Canada, the role of provincial governments would increase with increased pop- ulation snd industry. This would not, however. lessen the role of

"The India-Pakistan altuaTi?n was quite quiet at the tirna oi my departure. There was less tension between the two countries than there had been during the years since the ceasefire in 1949 and both parties were endeavouring to arrive at a final solution over their differences." it was stated last night by Lt. Col. Claude D. Ives.

Lt. Col. Ives and his wife re- turned to Charlottetown irom the India-Pakistan area on Monday night. The Charlottetown soldier has been serving with the United Nations Military Observer group in India and Pakistan for the past five years.

Hostiiities between Pakistan and India broke out in 1947. A cease- fire agreement was reached on January 1, 1049 when military ob- servers from 12 United Nations countries were despalched to the RICA.

Lt. Col. Ives, who had been serv- ing with the 28th LA.A. Regiment. R.C.A. on the active reserve, was called out for special duly with the Canadian group in 1949.

"Our original job was to assist in the demarcation of the cease- fire line on the ground," he stated. The line extended for 450 miles through areas ranging in height from 2.000 feet on the ranges to 18,- 000 feet peaks in the Himalayas.

"The chief function oi the mis- sion was to ensure that both arm- ies lived up to their original cease- fire agreements. In event of border incidents we were to make thorough investigations on the ground to determine who was responsible for the offense.

"Both the Indian and Pakistan armies cooperated with the UN group 1007?: and endeavored to make our job as easy as possible." he stated.

While in the region Lt. Col. Ives and other members of the UN group were attached to either army as required usually on a rotation basis oi three months. The cease- fire line was drawn through Kashmir in addition to the com- mon border between India and

The Mission was headed by a Chief Miutary observer who is the direct representative of the sec- retary General oi the United Nat- ions. The present chiei Military Observer is Major General It. 1-I. Nimmn of Australia. .

There are military observers from 11 different countries in the UN. group. Countries represented are Canada, U.S.A., Belgium, Australia, New zcaland Sweden, Norway. Denmark, lie, Uruguay and Ecuador. Mexico had men in the area at one time.

Kashmir, through which the cease-fire line has been drawn, is bounded by both soviet mussia. and Red China on one side. India and Pakistan are the boundaries on the other side.

Kashmir is only slightly smaller than Great Britain. In soil is rich and fertile. Its nsturai re- sources though not fully developed are a potential source of great value," stated Lt. Col. Ives.

Island Odds slid Ends

Seems as though there, will be hunters to spare when the sea- son opens in a few days time. Antlcipatlonda intense as the date draws near.

The, Island has its quota of marskmsn, which runs the scale from good. bad, to indifferent. Among the more successful hunt- ers ls Mr. Lloyd Wonnscott of the Charlottetown Post Office, an ex- perienced gunnv-,r, with a DPOVEI1 record of performance established

i in his early youth. and maintain-

ed through the years. Will the birds be plentiful this year Mr. Wonnacott was asked. "All the signs," he answered. "point to a good year. and I be- lieve that ducks especially will be quite plentiful." Mr. Wonnacott was not pre- pared to make any optimistic pre- dictions about Hungarian pari- ridge but foresaw an upswing in the number of pheasants bagged. A versatile gunner. Mr. Wanna- cott has quite often brought home a mixed bag of pl'Flridge, duck and pheasants. C I More and bigger mackerel are being brought aslfore at Rustico than in several years. On one dav last week. 40.000 of these fish were, forwarded to the Boston market from the North Shore village. Refrigerated trucks rolled them into the Massachusetts cap- ital in prime condition, and they reached the, dealers when sup- plies were low. In short, they at- rived in the right shape and at the right time to bring a good price. When they reach Boston on a glutted market, the shippers of course register little if any profit. It is a matter of luck much of the time. and luck in a flighiy lady. O O

The Charlottetown National Em- ployment Office records. at the end of September, revealed 385 people in King's and Queen's Counties drawing unemployment insurance benefits, as compared to 450 at the same date last yur. A small percentage-yet notice- able-are people who have re- turned from Upper Canada. where unemployment is apparently more pronounced than in this province. Since schools and colleges ra-open- ed and many students gave up summer jobs there has been no great surplus of help available hereabouts - particularly laborers in construction work. University age boys fit in very well with a construction gang. with youth, alertness and strength to recom- mend them. When the colleges re- call them. each year many an em- ployer watches their departure with regret.

larger Maritime universities have adopted Cana- dian football as played all over the Dominion except in the Mari- tlmes, in preference to English rugby so long popular in Cha lottstown and otiier Down East Centres. This of course is but an- other manifestation of national consciousness. and from the stand- point of sport.a development of nationhood. The, Americans de- veloped a type of football all their own. the British Isles fashioned the rules of English rugby. and Upper Canada came up with a species of football different from both. Canadian rugby does re,- semble the American gridiron pastime of course. more than it does English rugby. but there are distinct differences nevertheless. It is fitting that Canadians should have a version of the game com-

Should the causeway, now being built over the, North River. near Charlottetown, prove a success, there will be few bridges built over Island rivers in future. it is understood that the Provincial authorities are well pleased with the progress of the North River job, and are looking ahead to re- placing other outdated bridges with causeways. Vernon River comes to mind as a likely spot for a causeway. since it will be crossed by the Trans-Canada Highway, and its present bridge is more or less an antique.

Islanders seem to be, causeway conscious. although lots of citizens remain unconvinced that the bridges should go. Sportsmen, for instance, are wondering if the trout will find their way inland over a causeway spillway as they have from time immemorial.
