Sovoge Harbour

The exceptionally low tide on Monday clued treat inconvenience to most. of the fishermen at Sav- age Harbour as many of them were unable to make their

93' tiuougb the harbour becausewof lack of water. Several of the

boats grounded while others were forced to ride at anchor for so long aa three hours waiting for the tide to riae sufficiently to give them clearance. Fishing at best is a hard job. Most of the boats take off for the grounds in the wee small hours of the morning; when their labors are through they like to et back home as quickly as posal le. However this sorry mess is in the process of being remedied. Another year such con- ditions will have been relegated to the folds of memory.

Mr. John Murphy well-known painter and interior decorator of Georgetown has completed his lab at the Parochial House at St. An- drew's and returned to his home in Georgetown.

ft is pleasing to note that the well-known fisherman Mr. Robert Pigot. has completely recovered from his recent illness and is back at the old job as good as ever. Bob is always right up among the leaders every season and this one will prove no exception despite his illness.'

Feinors Make

BELFAST. Northern Ireland (Reuters) Political contusion blanketted much of Northern Ire- land Monday. created by til; vic- tory of two tailed Sinn Fain can- didates in the British general election.

The immediate question is whether the defeated Ulster Un- ionist candldatesf will appeal to the courts against the election of bricklayer Tom Mitchell. 28. and office worker Philip Clarke, 21. both serving long prison terms. The Unionist: could claim that as convicts they are "dis- qualified persons."

If the Unionists go to the high court. the question then la: will the court award the two seats to the Unionist candidates? Or will it call by-elections?

If another election is held, pre- dictiona have been that the sum Feiners will again put. forward Mitchell and Clarke aa candid-

ates.

CENTURIES-OLD TROUBLE

The situation pointa up the cen- turies-old bitterness between Brit- ain and Ireland. now concentra- ted in the division of Ireland in the '” d t Irish " E" and Northern Ireland. a part. of the United Kingdom.

The Sinn Fain-the name means "ourselves alone"-is the poli- tical arm of the outlawed Irish Republican Army. It has pledg- ed to bring about the union of Northern Ireland with the inde-

They face a hazardous choice. If they secure the isqualification of the Sinn Felners, they risk stirring up fresh trouble among the supporters of Irish unity.

If they decline to take the action they threatened during the election campaign. they face charges of "moral cowardice."

OTTAWA. (CPI -- Agriculture Minister Gardiner says it la no disgrace for former members of Parliament or a legislature to hold government jobs.

He made the statement Monday after listening to an oft-repeated charge that he runs a political machine in Saskatchewan.

The accusation against Mr. Gard- lner. who next month completes his 41st year in politics. was made in the Commons by John Dlefen- haker (PC-Prince Albertt and three CCF members. i cluding party leader. M. J. Caldwell. Debate was on a bill amending the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Act. Mr. Diefenbaker said the PFRA administration under Mr. Gardiner. who represents Melville in the Commons. "is b ming a political melon." It had become patronage for "retired. rejected or resigned politicians."

"POLITICAL MACHINE"

Mr. Caldwell said it was "more and more a political machine di- rected by the minister of agricul- ture."

Mr. Diefenhaker referred to two

change her mind. but since most everyone would be away on mid- summer vacations by the time she quit he felt the sooner the testi- motlial could be held, the more citizens could pay their respects. If Mr. Donaldson's suggestion was offered ollt of solicitude. Miss Wihitton took no note of it. Said s at

”Therelll be no moaning at the bar when I put out. to sea." She hadn't had much time lately to think about her resignation. "I've been too busy." she ex- plained. "trying to discourage mass meetings called for the purpose of seeking the retirement of certain

Mr. Dewar resigned from Par- liament in 1953 after it was re- ported he had engaged in cheque- kiting with Harvey Lunam. a Re- gina contractor in financial diffi- culties at the time.

Mr. Gardiner said Mr Dewar and Mr. Pcrrie are PFHA field inspectors. among several in western Canada.

"It seems to be a disizracg for anyone to have ever been in this House or the Saskatchewan legis- lature and then get a job from anybody. particularly the govern- ment." said Mr. Gardiner. former

The opposition charges of PFRA I political appointments developed out of debate on a bill on em-1 power Mr. Gardiner to award PFRA contracts up to a maximum value of fl5.000 without prior cabinet approval. The authority currently is limited to station. I The measure was given secondl reading--approval in print-iplo-af-p ter a vote of 95 to 44 in favor.;

raising to 515.000 the amount he could authorize for a single pro- ject without prior cabinet ap- proval. Mr. Gardiner replied he could not provide such a list. When Mr. Diefenbaker and Oppo- sition Leader Drew pressed for one example of where the increase would be needed and how many times in the past he had to sub- mit a project of more than 310.- 000 to the cabinet. Mr. Gardiner said he would have to check.

Mr. Drew termed the minister's words "a masterpiece of evasion."

Finally. Mr. Gardiner said he has not "a single reason” to ask for the change except that the cabinet wants It and he is going along.
