Afwr pointing out that lcbetar poaching had developed into a. very serious problem. Mr. Gaudet, the only active fisherman in the House, stated the Government's actions in increasing the carapace measurement was one of the main reasons for poaching in the west- ern area.

"By increasing the - carapace measurement they took 25 per cent of the lobsters away from the fishermen," he stated. "The meas- urement in now 7.3. They started at 6.5 and at that measurement I think the laws about poaching were observed. Then they raised it to 'l and they kept on going to

lieium from Police School

-After attending a two-weeks police school held in Halifax. Cats. Harry Mscxu and Elmer Math- eson of the Summerside police force returned home on Saturday evening.

Both these oilicera were of the opinion that the training received at this school was oi great value and that the school would be held again next year and for a longer period than two weeks. Policemen from many points in the Mari- times were in attendance includ- ing Charlottetown. Summerside, and also representatives of the Canadian National Railway force.

Beginning at 8.30 each morning different courses were held throughout the day and the vari- ous subjects dealt with were pat- rolling, care and use of nrearms. making arrests, public relations, finger printing. Each lecture was followed by a question and ans- wer period with practical demon- strations being made regarding the questions asked. While in Halifax the visiting officers were

"They have been trying to tell us that we are destroying the in- dustry by catching the smaller ones. But no one can tell us where the lobsters come from be- cause they don't know enough about the history of the lobster. In 1931 during a severe storm there were windrowa of lobsters washed up on the shore and in the spring of 1932 we had our biggest catch in 20 years."

Mr. Gaudet suggested that leg- islation should be passed whereby the fisherman could space their traps at 1 3-8 inches. He stated this would allow the smaller lol- sters to go free. "What's in the traps would be mine and what goes free belongs to Ottawa." he slated. ,

He pointed out that lobster fish- ing provided the Island iisiiermen with 10 per cent of their cash. Last year the total value of the lobster catch amounted to about 32,000,000 among 3,000 fishermen and their families in the Prov- ince.

Hard Problem

'The First Prince member noted the industry was becoming a hard problem to handle. "I notice that the speaker from Annandale has given in that there is poach- ing in his district. Two years ago they branded m.-.- as coming from the section where they did all the poaching," he stated.

He stated superiicial reports would indicate that the fishermen had 8. wonderful year in 1953 but that it wasn't quite the case al- though the income was higher. "The fishermen on the North Shore lost about 50,000 traps and

Councillor Macbougall. in re- viewing ihe events and meetings that have occurred in connection with the council's interest in the rink construction, revealed that at least two members of the fin- ance committee had refused to authorize payment of the 535,000 until certain aspects of the mat- ter were fully understood by the finance committee.

He revealed that two meetings on the matter had been held pre- vlous to the calling of the spec- ial meetings of the whole coun- cil by the Mayor on February 25th. Although other members of the council last evening con- firmed that they had been duly notified, Councillors MacDougall and Clark claimed they had no knowledge of its purpose until their arrival at the meeting.
