A strong plea on behalf of the fishermen who were victims of a hanvy storm last November in. the" Rustico district was made in the House of Commons recently by M,-, w. Chester 5. MoLure, MP. ,0, Queen'l. Following is the re- l r, of Mr. McI..ure's remarksas axon from H He was speakinl on a bill to provide shori- mrm credit for western grain pro- ducers: 0 '

"1 am neither a western farmer. 5 gram grower nor an eastern mmer, but I have listened to the gppbllls that have been made here since the session began and my sympathies are certainly with the mmer in the condition in which he finds himself in western Can-

ad-aAller all. we must look at the farmer. 1 view the occupation he is engaged in as a great work for the benefit of us all. The farmer is the greatest gambler of any man in business, in the professions 0,-1.. anything else we have in our communities. I-Ic gambles from the time the seed is put in the mund.

Well. it is not quite so had rambling on the market conditions Am the east as it is in the west. because in the east the fl-rmer uses his own experience and smaller organizations in marketing his products. But in western Can- ary. (ho government takes charge of the marketing conditions and according to the report we had mt year it lost a good deal of money. someone repeated the statement tonight that the wheat :T(l'.i'r-rs. through marketing con- ditions set up by the government lost about 5300 or 3400 mlllldn."

Mr. Mcl.ure: "I am only saying what western members have said I. for one, supported the 505 mil- lion they got. from our treasury last year. 1 am not. making any complaint about that. My sym- pathy goes out, to them again on this occasion. and I am pleased that some guarantee is being giv- en them so they can be ready for the crop season. And. instead of making it. a short-term credit. why not make it for A longer term, so they will have a chance to get along until the crop is taken off?

Fisherman's Situation

"I should like to add some per- sonal observations. the first oi which would be that while the farmer is a.-gambler. the fisherman is a real runner-up. I am proud to see the Minister of Fisheries (Mr. Mayhewi in his seat, after escap- ing from the Communists in Korea. I know he will appreciate what I am goingto say about the poor fishermen in my own local- ity.

"Last November there was a very heavy storm in that area. with winds reaching a velocity of 70 miles an hour. with extra high tides which broke up practically all the breakwater. so that the waters flooded in over the beaches and around the homes of thle fish- ermen. It invaded their fishing ahanties and their equipment. A large percentage of that equip- ment was a total loss. so the fish- ermen are loft without the secur- ity that would permit them to ask for a loan.

"I bring this to the attention of the minister. When we are voting money for the western farmers I suggest something could be done for those fishermen. I know the machinery has already been set up in the Department of Fisheries. so it would take the burden of ad- ministration of! the shoulders of the Minister of Trade and Com- merce (Mr. Howe).

A Few Thousand Dollarn

"This would cost only a few thousand dollars, as compared with the millions that would go to the West. .

”Purt.lier. i' could he operated through the. Fisherman's Loans Board which is already set . up. I know the Minister would find, upon investigation. that the loss suffered by these poor people has been very great. I know some of them whose homes have been dis- rupted. They had to leave their homes during the storm. Their shanties. buildings. machinery. equipment. boats. traps. rope and all other gear were lost.

"Some of it was beaten by the waves against; the rocks. Surely those fishermen are deserving of some consideration at the hands of the government. If we are to be generous to the western farmers, then I want to see the fishermen of my constituency in Prince Ed- ward Island receive what is prop- erly their due."

Enjoyable concert At llotre llama.

”Tis the Season to be Merry," echoes through the hall at Notre Dame and with happy thoughts of holidays ahead the students turn Bethany McDonald narrator

On the evening of "December 15th their sweet singing was heard over the radio with Miss Bethany Mt-Donald narrator.

The following Monday .all the students of the Academy had an opportunity to express their holi- day splrits when they presented their annual Christmas Concert. A group of Intermediates arrayed in the school uniform introduced the program with a gay song and dance "0 Welcome. Sweet Christ- mas." Against a blue sky back- ground the little girls were next seen and heard in their playiet entitled: "What is Christmas?" in their winsome childish way they told the story ever old. ever new of children singing and bells a- pealing praising Christ the new-

born King.

In the tableau Joan Hanlon portrayed the Blessed Virgin assisted by the littlest angels

Helen MacKen-zie and Judy Mc- Quald. A group of Juniors pre- sented a two-act Operetta "The Royal Wishes" in the warm at- mosphere of a summer garden scene. All characters were at .their best in their respective mils.

The attractive princess and charming young prince combin- ed some fine acting with lovely singing.

The "Light of the World" truly permeated the Auditorium when the Seniors entered the hall carry- ing lighted tapers and went in procession to the stage in the flic- kering candle light, enchanted by a. colored revolving electric light. they sang their Christmas Carols heard recently over C. F. C. Y.

Their theme song. "Merry Christmas to All." was a fitting closing to a happy evenin-g's en- tertainment.

Personal Standard For Prince Philip

LONDON. Dec.-(Reuters) (GP)-A new royal standard takes its place in history. puzzling many who see it for the first time.

This is the personal standard of tne Duke of Edinburgh. flown for the first time at the end of No- vember when the Duke opened s new engineering section at New- castle's King College.

Part of the arms are already well known. being those of Princess El- izabeth. The half nearest the hoist. however, bears the three lions of Denmark (blue on gold) and the Greek Cross (white on blue.) Beneath are part of the Battenburg arms and :2. represent- ation of Edinburgh Castle and the lock on which it stands (black and red on white.)

From now on. this standard will be flown when Prince Philip makes official appearances at any cere- n-.ony. Should Princess Elizabeth accompany him.however, her stan-

dard takes precedence.
