SAINT JOHN. N. 8.. Nov. 22- iCPl - Geonse E, Howard. elect- ed as Mayor of Saint John, Oct. la. IOCIEY submitted his resignation at a special Common Council meet- ing he had called.

He requested it become effect- ive at once but the six councillors unanimously decided against gc. capting the resignation pending a two-week period and asked the Mayor to reconsider h.is action.

Saying he was not prepared to remainin office as only a "putter of motions." Mayor Howard said he had found that Councillors J. R. Campbell. Ronald H. Howard. Harold Prince and W. R. Tippett. representing a majority of the Council. were planning to run the meetings.

The formal letter of resignation mentioned private agreemcn-ts among the four councillors re- garding the conduct of city affairs. Councillor Campbell said the group had held discussions'about Council matters but there was "nothing to hide and nothing to be ashamed of."

Councillor James A. Whitebone termed the "secret" meetings "an insult to the intelligence of the citizens." Councillor Leonard said the majority group made the Council a "rubber stamp."

Deputy Mayor Tippett will pre- side over Council meetings if the Mayor does not attend them, and if the resignation becomes final Mr.'Tippet.t will be acting Mayor until a by-election fills the office.

CAIRO, Nov. 22 - (Reuters) - The Government imposed a state of emergency in three big cities today as Prime Minister Nahas Pasha again told Britain to get out 0! Egypt.

Troops were brought quell student demonstrations. An anti-British "strike" began in universities and schools.

Cairo, Alexandria and Port Said -where an outbreak of fire oc- curred today on a ship loading gasoline for Bl'iiIl5h forces - were declared in is state of emergency.

The demonstrations started yesterday when Foreign Sec- retary Ernest Bevin of Britain said his country would not leave the Suez Canal zone. nor agree to Egyptian union with

Sudan without Sudan's con-

t sent.

About 15,000 students marched to the centre of Cairo today. yell- ing. "We want immediate evacua- tion, down with imperialism."

Nahas Pasha hurried to the meeting and told the students he was confident of obtaining Egypt's "national aspirations" - the eva- cuation and union, which were de- manded last week in a government policy speech.

He was sure Egypt would get her way by political means. "but we have other means in case of failure," he added.

"Mr. Bevin's statement in the House of Commons opens - in fun own way - the door for negotia- tions," the Premier said.

Steel-hclmeted police and troops cordoned off the British consulate in Port Said where demonstrators paraded through the streets shout- lng "Down with England, we want freedom."

Churchill Critical

out to

LONDON. Nov. 22 - (Reuters)

-Winston Churchill tonight chal- lenged the Labor Government on its Egyptian policy and asked the House of Commons to back him up.

The Conservative leader pre- sented a "motion of censure" which, if adopted by the Com- mons. would force the Govern- ment to resign or call an election. La-bor has a voting majority of five in the Commons.

Churchill attacked the Govern- ment for continuing to send arms to Egypt after the Egyptians had demanded that Britain get out of the Suez Canal zone and the Su- dan.

l-its motion. likely to be debated next week. was submitted tonight a few hours after noisy members of Parliament, including some La- bor members. had asked in the Commons that arms shipments bl: suspended.

Poultry Farmers Urge Price Support As Morale-Booster

OTTAWA, Nov. 22 -(OP)-The Canadian Poultry Council today decided to press the Government. to continue the principle of price- support next year as a morale- booster for the Canadian egg in- dustry.

Opening a three-day representatives of some 500.009 poultrymen drafted their request and will discuss it with Agricult- ure Department officials tomor- row arrd Pridalh

The officials also will discuss the general field of marketing and the possibilities of rs-gaining the Unit- ed Kingdom egg market, lost last year when Britain decided not to renew her egg contract with Can- ada.

meeting,

Jacques de Broin of Montreal,

Council vice-president. said the situation in Canada currently is excellent. Supplies are good, but with no over-abundance and the outlook for next yearis fora slight increase in production. The market is buoyant and it is unlikely the Government will need to spend money in its current egg price- support program.

However. Mr. de Broin said the industry still wants the principle of price-support continued next FEET.

"The fact that the Government apparatus is there to help if help is needed stabilizes the market," Mr. de Broin said. "If the Govern- ment gave no assurance of support. egg dealers would hesitate to store eggs when they are in surplus pro- duction."

OTTAWA. Nov. 23 - ICP l-Til Government announced today that it will sell to the trade at a baslcl price or 57 cents a pound the but-" ter which it purchased earlier thisi year through its price support ma-: chinery and now is holding in stor-l 38

C.

The price will be 57 cents a. pound for first grade creamery butter de- livered in carloacl lots in Ontario and Quebec.

Prices in other Pmvinces and zones will vary according to the transportation costs from the areas of production.

mg lhliigher In.Mar'itlmea

For example, first grade cream- ery butter in solids will be sold in the Maritime Provinces at 57 cents a pound. in British Columbia at 59 cents a pound and in Saskatch- ewan at 53 cents.

These prices are trade pl-ices - not retail prices.

The amount of butter available was not disclosed but the Agricul- tural Prices Support Board, which made the announcement, said it. was a "fairly substantial" quantity.

Under the price support program, the Government buys up butter - thus taking it off the market - at fixed prices in the big butter pro- duction months of early spring and summer and then sells it back to the trade in the winter months, when production is low and sup- plies are scarce.

This helps to keep prices stable in the summer, when supplies are heavy. and prevents them from rising too steeply in the winter. when supplies normally run short.

Expect stable Price

The Board said it expects the prices announced today can be maintained. however, the butter picture will be reviewed "from time to time in order to determine what adjustrnents, if any, are necessary in the program of butter distribu- tlon."

Sales to the trade will start Dec. 1

The prices will be equal to the cost to the Government of its pur- chases of butter in 1950. some of which was bought in March and April at 58 cents a pound and the remainder during the summer at 53 cents. They also cover carrying charges and delivery costs.

The Bcard will deliver the hut- ter to the city or town in which the purchasers place of business is situated, "to maintain. as far as possible. uniform prices at the low- est possible level to all collsulners."

The Board's butter purchases in 1949 totalled 4-8.000.000 pounds.
