Fire of unknown origin yester- day afternoon at North 'l'ryon completely destroyed the now in- active North Tryon electric light plant. owned by the Maritime Electric Company. along with an unusued saw-milie housed in the same building.

The Crspsud Fire Department. using their newest fire-engine on its first real test. prevented the flames from destroying other buildings nearby.

Discovered Fire

The fire was first observed about 3.45 p.m. by Roger Lord. son of Mr. and Mrs. Sterling Lord. who, while working out- doors at his home about 100 yards from the plant noticed smoke coming through the roof of the building. He notified his father who summoned the Crapaud Fire Department. but by the time the fire department had travelled the five miles to the scene oi the fire the roof was already down, and the flames had made such h C y that the fire department concentrated their efforts on sav- ing the nearby buildings.

nerlr0wned lTo Undertake Experimental Dragged Cruise in The Gulf

P. E. I. Native Honored

Efforts to obtain an earlier sea- son for fishermen of this Province will result in an experimental fish- ing cruise in the waters of the Gulf of st. Lawrence next week. The cruise will be undertaken by offlo- lsls of the Department of Industry and Natural Resources.

The vessel used will be the new dragger "Marjorie and Mary Belle" which spent last winter fishing in the Bay of Fundy, and she will be under command of Mr. Francis A. Campbell. Inspector oi the Fisher- men's Loan Board. The cruise has been planned and will be super- vised by Mr. Eugene German. Di- rector of Fisheries.

it is well known that ground- fish come to local waters about June is each year. but this cruise is being undertaken to determine if it would be possible to locate fishing in commer 'l quantities during the month of may and thus give fishermen here an opportunity of adding to their annual catch.

The dragger will try waters up to depths of 90 to 100 fathoms as the Marjorie and Mary Belle has performed successfully and satis- factorily in such depths while fish- ing off La!-fave. N.s., last winter in Atlantic waters.

In company with Mr. Campbell and Mr. German, the regular crew of the dragger will be at sea for approximately a week as they en- deavour to locate early season grounds. It will not be simply an experimental trip as the ship will be actively engaged in dragging at all times. one of the fish for which they will be looking will be the "red" fish.

Jo Ann Gaudet. 7-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Gaudet. Miscouche. was seriously injured yesterday afternoon when struck by a truck while croulng the highway near her home.

The truck. as 1950 (Hon Chev. driven by Ambrose Boyles of West Devon, was said to have 'been travelling slowly west on the highway through Miscouche when the little girl apparently ran in front of it while crossing the street to her home from a neigh- bour's where she had been visit- ing one of her school chums.

The truck struck the little girl. knocking her to the ground. The rear dual wheels are said to have passed over her body. '

She was immediately rushed to the Prince County Hospital in Summerside where it is under- stood thal her injuries include a fractured leg.-S.

On a ship of this type, it is necessary to trim as you load. and with this in mind, the lower hold space must be filled first. cattle must wait.

Permission had to be re- ccived from the owners. in st. John's, Newfoundland. to carry as many more as advisable. in the lower hold, which caused more delay.

Vliillake-ii. 1. Meal For Sale To The ll.S.A. .

UITAWA. May 0 -(CP)-- The canadian Government announced today that it has negotiated a barter arrangement under which a minimum of 4o.ooo.ooo pounds of surplus Canadian beef and pork will beshipped into the United Kingdom market this year.

An Anglo-Canadian-New zenland exchange deal was detailed to the commons by Agriculture Minister Gardiner. It is an emergency move to rid Canada. of is mounting meat stockpile sparked by the i.'nit.-:d states embargo and the ioot-and- mouth disease in south i!sskaich-

swan. .

Canada will ship surplus fresh meat-mostly beef-to the U.K. and receive New Zesland frozen meat in payment. This she will sell to the 11.8 . and if she obtains a fairly reasonable price. will share part of the proceeds with New zealand. '

Because of Britain's lack of dol- lars, Canada has been unable to enter the U.K. beef market since 1948 and the U.K. pork market since 1950.

Mr. Gardiner said that Cansda stands to lose money on the ar- rangement. but the Canadian Gov- ernment grcatly appreciaoes the hellaruinen of the British and New zealand Governments. '

Start - Moving Beef

Details were announced simul- taneously in Ottawa. London and Auckland. Mir. Gardiner said the government has started moving quantities of Canadian beef to Montreal to prepare them for early shipment to Britain.

A crew of "diamond" drillers is expected to arrive in the Province over the weekend in an effort to locate suitable hard rock for the building of is new causeway bridge across the Hillsborough River.

It is the belief of Government officials here that such rock can be located in the Province and ef- forts will be made to determine the location of several quarries from which alone may be taken. i

It is not known how long the crew will be here. but Premier J. Walter Jones said yesterday they would remain "as long as they are useful to us." The crew is expected to conduct borings in many secl- ions of the Island. with hole: as close as possibly within 10 miles of each other thr ,' t the Province. c

Their commander warned the prisoners that force would be used if necessary "at an early date" to release Brig.-Gen. Francis Dodd.

seized three days ago. Gen. James Van Fleet. Eighth Army commander. also said he

never will yield to the demands of the North Korean prisoners for privileges in exchange for Dodd. He called the demands "unreason- able" and said they "cannot and will not be granted."

The last word out from behind the barbed wire. was that Dodd was being well treated. By tele- phone Dodd said he apparently

was in little danger.

However, he was shots: of his command of the rock island prison off the southeast. tip of Korea. Van Fleet made this announce- ment. but did not make clear whether Dodd will be restored to command later.

Van Fleet placed Brig.-Gen. Charles Colson in command of the prison housing 80.000 prison- ers and gave him "full authority sind command to handle the situa- ton." '

Van Fleet also ordered an amsy investigation. For one thing. he said he wanted to find out "why the guards didn't rush in for a rescue attempt" when Dodd was seized at the compound gate. 'Vall Fleet made a flying visit Friday to the troubled island,t scene of two previous prison riots. He would not permit correspon- dents to go to Koje. saying the situation still was "too delicate."

The first of three concerts. "stars of the Festival." was pre- sented iast night at Prince of wales College Auditorium. featur- ing the winners of their respective classes in the P.E.I. Music Fest.- val. The program was long, but the quality of the performances was so high, the program so well ar- ranged snd carried out with such excellent organization that those who attended found it a most en- ioyable and rewarding experience.

Dr. G.D.. steel. Piesldent of the Musical Festival Association. spoke briefly at the beginning of the cgnosrti commenting upon the high quality of the festival, the enthusiasm shown by the audiences which have attended the various sessions and the tremendous a- mount of work done by the com- mittee in preparation for the fes- tival. The opening number was Easthopc Martin's chorus, "Come to the Fair," performed by the Charlottetown Chorale, Although recently organized this charale, under the direction of William Keith Rogers. has made great pro- gress slncc its first Phblic appear- ance. and was rewarded with hearty applause for the fine ren- dition last night.

is the P.E.l. firm of H. B. Willis. nc. For that firm. Senator Farris argued today that the federal leg- islation was invalid in not pro- viding for creation of a new body in P.E.I. to administer in- terprovincial traffic in potatoes. instead. it had used an agency of the Island Government. the Po- inlo Marketing Board. and st- tempted to vest it with federal powers.

it that were followed through. it would mean that provincial governments could pass over their powers to a federal board. And that. the Senator said. runs counter to Canada's federal con- ccpt.

"There is no reason to take this shortcut past the nstitutlon." senator Farris said. He felt the Federal Government could achieve its purpose by vesting federal pow- ers in the ndividual members of the P.E.I. board rather than in the board as such.

Mr. Justice 1. C. Rand suggest- ed that a "phantom distinction" was being made. He thought the Federal-P.lJ. arrangement might be the best way of meeting an "extraordinary problsm" of Juris- diction as between provincial and inlet-provincial trade.

federal compensation law already imposes duties on provincial com-
