also informed Mr. Ellis MacPher- son that early potatoes would iioi. come under the board.

Mr. Charles Richards asked what provision had been made for loss. Mr. MacDonald answered that even prior to the setting up of the board, even under the dealers, the farmers had to withstand the loss. farmers had to withstand the ltms.

Mrr Richards asked concerning the discrepancy between the a- mount bought and sold. Mr. Mac- Donald explained that this amount- ed to 117,000 bushels. He further stated that a large proportion had been lost through shrinkage, part- icularly at" Charlottetown.

..'Mr. Donald A. MacDonald and -Mr. Leo Maclsaac were present at ithc potato growers meeting held int Murr;iy River last night to ex- .plain the issues involved in the l))lN)CSClle to be held November 10. iTl:e very-attentive meeting was ipresided over by Mr. William 'Whiieway, and both speakers were -givcii a good hearing by everyone iiii the Dil('I(Cd hall. ,

Mr. Mncfsaac traced the setting up of the potato board and the selling agency, and continued on to explain the proposed policies ,whlch has been set up this year. llin stated that the primary pur- pose of the board was to estab- 'lish a uniform price for Island po- tatoes. Rcgardiiig the pooling pol- ticies he said there would be four ivarit-ty pools, foundation seed, rcrtificd seed. tablestock. and mis-

rellzincoiis, .-ind five pools periods. An lIlIll'II payniciit would be made within a few days after loading, a later interim payment at the cnd of the pool, and a final pay- ineut. at the end of the season. On :1 question from Mr. Mili- iiurn Bucll, Mi. Maclsaac stated that if the govcrninr-nt agreement

town shed was piled high and sev- eral cars were on the track. none of which had been brought to the attention of the agency. In order that the farmers would not suffer loss, the agency had taken over these potatoes and had mar- keted them. The board had trust- ed the dealers to do their Job cor-

,tlirou;:li the bank, and it was hop-

rectly, he said, but they had not done so.

Henccforth the warehouse would be under the control of the agency or of a. particular dealer who would be responsible for every bag of potatoes that went in and out. Referring to the advertisements which appeared in yesterday's paper, which made reference to a one-man agency, he said, he was only one member of .-t board of ten, four dealers and six producers. This board, he said, held meetings twice. and sometimes three and four times it. week. "It is no point in telling people that MacDonald controlled everything. and is only trying to get control for himself." he said, "the fact. that I am ask- ing to vote out the board, if you vote out the agency, is the answer to that charge," he said.

Mr. MacDonald maintained that the board had always operated in the best interests of the farmers, and was again endeavoring to help them by holding a uniform price.

A director of the Dealers As- soclstion, he said, made the state- ment at St. Petersthai: the prov- ince always had to tag along and would do the same in the future. Mr. MacDonald pointed out that we have si dominant influence on our own markets. and certainly there was no necessity to tag along, he considered. Further he said, there was enough competi- tion outslde the Province without having to contend with it from within with the dealers price cut. ting one another. I At the conclusion of the niet-t-I lng a. vote of thanks, moved by; Mr. Charles Richards, seconded by Mr. Millburn Buell, was extcndcd Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Maclsaac and Mr. Roland MacDonald for

ed that over 60 percent of the proscpcctlie price would be made on the llllilRI payment. He went on toaoutline the further advant- ages of the pool through the med- ium of collective bargaining. He deplored the selling of futures on the southr-rn markets in the spring, S;I)'lIl,L' this had .1 tendency to in- fluciice the fall market price.

ANOTIIER PLEBISCITE?

Mr. Bucll asked Mr. Maclsaac :f anotlicr plebiscite could be held next. rciir, nnd Mr. Maclsaac re- plied iii.-it. the government machin- ery u.is tlirre, and if it was de- sired. he could see no reason why anotlicr could not be held. Mr. M.1CI5a.ic deplored the price cut- ting within the province as it had a tendency to depress the market, and he was assurred that only the agency rotilti do anything to help maintain a uniform price.

Mr. Roland MacDonald. presi- dent. of the P. E. I. Federation of Agriculture also spoke briefly, and urged those eleglble to get out and vote on November 10.

Mr P('l'Cy MacPhcrson asked if the board was taking No. 2 table- stock this year, and he was in- formed that it would go in the niisccllzincous pool. Mr. Maclsaac

pumpkin pie and ice cream was served by a t-omnilttee of the ladies. Excellciit music was furn. ishecl by Mr. Otis Jackson, violin. .Vfr. Preston Jzirkson. guitar, and Mis. Atwood MacDonald. piano.
