GEOFFREY PEARSON

Ruth Comfort. University oi Toronto co-ed, has received an apology from the U.S. slate department for being detained on Ellis Island 2i hours. Miss Comfort was returning from Holland with a group of Cana- dinn students including Geoffrey Pearson, son of Lester B. Pearson, Min- ister of External Affairs, aboard the Dutch steamer Volendam when tak-

' en into custody and accused of making an "inflammatory" pro-Commun-

ist speech aboard ship. Geoffrey Pearson, a third-year student at Trin- ity college, also aboard the ship, said "the whole thing was an annoying mistake." Miss Comfort said an Ellis island guard had told her she was believed to have "made a speech aboard the ship evidently in favor of Communism." Later he told her five secret service agents bad been

Miss Canada IV Sets North America Speed Butt Record

PICPON. 0nt., Oct. I -(qp)_.. Miss Canada IV set a North Amer- ican speed boat record of 138.648 miles an hour today and missed cracking the 10-year-old world mark of 141.7 mph by a whisker.

There were a couple of ironic twists to the run over Picton Bay. Driver Harold Wilson of Ingersoll. Ont., had only to lop less than a second off the total time of 51.0 seconds over the two one-mile runs to become the fastest water pilot In the world. The boat had it but Wilson "throttied her down" due to a red-hot engine.

"Miss Canada. was so high over the water chops that the breather pipes weren't sucking in enough water to keep the engine cooled," he explained later. Ho had no way of knowing he was so close to climbing over the world reoord.

It was ironic also that the prev- ious North American tltleholder was Such Crust, owned by Jack Shaefier of Detroit. an easy win- her over Miss Canada in the In~ ternational liarmsworth Races at Detroit this summer. Such Crust set the record. 1286 miles an hour. over Gull Lake. Mich, in August.

Under American Power at As- sociation regulations, Ml Canada is allowed one more attempt before sundown Tuesday to break the world record set - by the late Sir Malcolm Campbell. over Lake Coniston, England. Aug. 19,1939. And Wilson is sitting tight until conditions are "just right" because he la confident "shefan do it."

Singer“ Buddy Clark Dies

OTTAWA. Oct. 2—(Specla.l) — Agriculture Minister Gardiner told W- Ohw-er B. McLure, Progressive Conservative MP. for Queen's, that he could not give production cost per pound either oi butter or mar- garine. Ho assured Mr. McLure prior to the weekend adjournment on Friday that with a floor price for butter of 5d cents a. pound, “a fanner should make a profit."

The Minister would express no opinion of the Prince Edward Is- land member's suggestion that mar- garine could he produced in Canada at the present tLma for 20 cents a pound. implying that its manufact- urers at present are amassing high profits.

“Margarine is manufactured from oils which are imported." ‘Mr. Mc- Lure told the House in debate on agricultural estimates. "It should be easy to find out the cost of a pound of margarine. The depart- m nt oi Agriculture must know th t it. is different from manufact- uring a pound of butter.

"These people. (the margarine manufacturers) are buying the oils. The Minister knows the setup. The Government took all the duties off so that they could make it as cheaply as possible and get as high a margin oi profit on it as they could. If we had the figures, this committee would learn that it does not cost 20 cents to manufacture the finest margarine on the mar- ket." In reply. Mr. Gardiner had no information as to margarine production costs. He told the coni- mittee:

"I can only assume that when the margarine manufacturers re- duced the price somewhere in the forties down to somewhere in the thirties they would still get their costs of production. I do not think they would have reduced the price below that. I aasume that it is somewhere in that neighborhood. I am not in a position to any how .much. I am boundto aay that it would be very difficult to state what the cost of producing a pound of butter is. It is certainly much less in the summer time than in the winter time."

LONDON, Oct. 2 - (AP) -'I'he Moscow radio announced todisy that Russia has recognized the Chinese Communist Government.

The broadcast, recorded here by the Soviet Monitor, said tho So- viet Government has broken off relations with the Chinese Ne.- tionalist. Government in Canton.

zirei Gromyko, Deputy Foreign Minister, in a telegram to Chou En-Lai, Foreign Minister in the new Chinese Communist Govern. ment.

Chou, who is also Prime Minis- ter ln thhe People's Republic Gov- ernment, earlier today was report- ed to have notified diplomatic re- presentatives of foreign countries in China, of the official proclama- tion by Communist lcader Mao Tse-Tung of the establishment oi the new government.

China's Communists Saturday formally proclaimed their new government. at Peiping with Gen, Chou En Lai as Premier and For- eign Minister, and the Soviet Un- ion followed a day later with rec- ognition of the new regime.

About the same time up- wards of I00 pickers were distribut- ed from Summcrslde after being recruited from the Moncton dist- rict. Tonight three more busloads will cross by the Wood Island route and one bus will leave immediately for Souris where the men h been booked to work at surrounding farms. The other two buslnztds will ccme directly to Charlottetown and will be allotted to farmers adjacent to the City.

It was pointed out by officials of the National Employment Office Charlottetown that the transpor- tation methods in handling the movement have been "streamlined" and wherever possible pickers are delivered almost at the formers gateway. In former years, men coming from Cape Breton came by rail, involving an overnight trip and the necessity of meeting them at the railroad station and then forwarding them by bus from Char- lottetown to their various destin- ations.

An important business transec- tion was completed Saturday when the Hughes Drug Company, with goodwill. fixtures, stock and other assets, was sold by Mr. G. Gordon Hughed to Mr. Earle C. Baker of Charlottetown, The Hughes Drug Company in its present location, corner of Queen and Grafton Streets, which is considered the best in Charlotte- town, has a, very long and useful record in the public service. In fact it can probably claim the honour of being the oldest estab- lishment to be carried, on contin- uously as a drug store in Canada. Founded In 1310

in the Weekly Recorder oi Prince Edward Island of Dec. 24, 1810, appeared a notice that Thomas DesBrisay, Junior, had opened an

Apothecary Shop and intended to supply “the wants of the inhabit- ants in general with a stock of genuine drugs and medicines." Families in the country remote from medical assistance, the not- ice read. would be supplied "with medicines together with written directions as to their uses and application."

The following year. in the same paper, heads of families were in- formed that Mr. DesBrisay had received a, supply "of genuine mat- ter to administer as cow-pox in- ooulation."

Mr. DesBrisay from the first did a. good business, and as the years went by the Apothecaries Hall-a name which the drug store con- tinues to bear -- was known far and wide for its large stock oi good medicines, and its reliability.

Soviet Policy

On this, Pravda commented: "The Soviet Union ia pursuing ltl' foreign policy consistently, The words spoke by Stalin in 1028 ring out with tremendous power today."

Stalin then went on to enun- clate the principle of loyalty to the Soviet Union's revolution. The chapter includes this speech to the central committee in 1928. published in the worka for the first time. Thia is the principle:

“These obligations (oftha in- ternatlonai proletariat) conliat in support of the proletariat of the USSR. in it: struggle against internal and foreign foes, in the war against a war directed to- ward stifling the proletarlan dic- tatorship of the U.S.S.R., and preaching a direct transference of the armiea of lmperlaliam to the aide of the proletarian dictator- ahip in the U.S.S.R. in the Went of attack of the USSR."

Of this, Pravda said:

"Any deviation from it la a be- trayal of the cause of socialiafh and a paaalng over to the camp of the bourgeoise. This haa hap- pened today to the Tito clique in Yugoslavia.

"Having betrayed international- iam, the bourgaola nationalistic Tito clique haa gone over finally from the camp of dcmoc Bu] and, socialism to the camp of the sworn foe: of the Soviet Union. the countries of the peoplea’ de- mocracy ond the whole world Communist movement, to the camp of imperialism and fascism."
