Newfoundland Service

Encouragement of steemshipser- vice between P.E.I. and New- foundland was urged by C. P. Rod. dali. xhlpplng manager of the Newfoundland Shipping Service of the P.E.I. Industrial Corporation. a provincial Crown company en- gaged in cold storage and shi ng.

He said it was the intenton of the Corporation to provide full facilities for shipping goods from’ Newfoundland uutports. The Corporation now was operating a sOO-ton vessel on this run.

no. Redsii declared this wee a useful facility because he had been advised by experts that there was l probability of traffic Jams at Port aux Basques. the Newfound- land terminus of the C.N.R.'s lteaniehip line from. North Syd- ney. N8. Possibility of increasirq ihe hum‘ of vessels handled at one time at Port aux Basques seemed “very remote."

The manager also said that the shipping time from Charlottetown to Corner Brook was 33 hours by boat, compared with 3 1-2 days over the C.N.R. lines from here. In view cf this, the use of direct water shipments from P.E.I. to the new Province should be en- couraged. He considered this was an economicalway of moving traffic and that the corporation's service would pay its way.

Mr. Reddali said he thought it would be more practicable to ship goodsmt made in this Province- such as machinery-to the New- foundland outports by way of the island than over the C.N.R. route to North Sydney.

"We would like to be the gate- way to Newfoundland," he told J.‘ l. Prswley, Alberta counsel.

CoetlyTo Growers

Lorne H. McFarlane. potato grower of Summerside and Liberal member of the Legislature for that riding. said that last year's 21-per- sent freight-rate increase had coat island growers $36 a car on pota- toes shipped out of the Province to Central Canadian and United States markets. < Mr. MoFarians protested against the "zoning" system for freight toils in this Province. whereby the Province is split into "inner" and "outer" zones for rate-snaking. There are different rate scales for each zone.

An anomaly in the set-up, Mr. McFerlane said, was that, while rates on the outer bone generally are the higher, in some cases outer zone rates are lower than those of

turns. meanness.

Maine Potato Growers Hope For Better Season

bushels of table etot at half the regular duty of 1a cents a hundre polmde. '

E. L. Newdick, plant ind ‘ y chief for the Maine State Depart- ment of Agriculture, believes the agreement probably will be resins- ed this year.

Imports of Canadian table stock were halted for a time. but the ban was lifted about a. month ago- with no effect yet. Newdick laid all the 1948 crop of both countries hes been sold.

Use of United States potatoes in the school lunch program and feeding of potatoes to livestock have occured in Maine, con- necticut and elsewhere ea a put of the United States Government support program. Newdick said. '

Imports from Canada, Newdick said, ‘lmerely mean that Uncle Sam is supporting the price of Canadian potatoes."

"For every car of potatoes shipp- ed in from Canada," he said "the Government has to buy one from American growers."

Newdidr believes it would be “more sensible if there were no trading in potatoes between Cen- ada. and the United States."

"We certainly won't need theirs for any purpose. either taibie or seed," he said, "and from the beet infomnation I can get. Canada is usually able to supply its own needs."

Wood Islands Car Ferry Possibilities Stressed

ditioning the boats was ea invest- ment.

"When we were faced with the need of replacing the' ‘Prince Nova‘ we quickly realized the mis- take that had been made in rpunting these expenditures es an investment, and on behalf of the shareholders and the members of our crew, as well as the interests of the public. we respectfully re- quest that you give consideration to the needs of this important part of ties economy of this Pro- vince.

"The employment of suitable dredsihg equipment, the provision of necessary aids to navigation. and the providing of docking equipment and facilities; that would permit the operation of the service at night, might be considered, and perhaps might be the answer for the time being, by permitting the boats to continue at night to clean up the waiting traffic."

SMALL HELPINGS 0F FOOD BEST FOR FINICIIY CHILD

NEW YORK — Don't force your child to eat, says Dr. Elizabeth Hllrlwk. who ls also a mother.

"A child quite often knows bet- ter what it should eat than_ its mother." says Dr. l-Iurlock. "My

‘daughter persistently refused to

eat liver and soon we found out that she Was allergic to it."

Instead of standing over your child, urging him to finish .whst's on his plate. remove the uneaten food without comment or show of concern. Unless he is allergic to it, your child soon should accept the food without fuss or bother. says Dr, Hurlock.

"Scientific studies of taste have shown no inborn food dislikes ex- cept for food that is harmful to the human body," Dr. Hurlock adds. Some of the reasons children de- velop focd dislikes ere because one or other of the parents has expres- sed a dislike for it in the chlld‘e presence, or because the food is over-cooked or over-seasoned.

The best way to tempt a child's appetite is to serve it attractively, well-cooked, and in fairly small quantities. ‘

However, warns Dr. l-Iurlock, a child who persistently refuses to eat should be examined by e doc- for.

A child who evereets is lust as much a problem es one who re- fuses to cat.

"Mother may love te be asked for second helpings after each meal. thinking it will make Johnny grow big and strong," smiles Dr. Hur- lock, “but overeating becomes e habit and invariably leads to ex- cess weight.

“Ne mother wants her child cel- led ‘Tubby’ or ‘Fatty’?

Dr. Hurlcck gives two rules for establishing good eating habits in a child. First, maintain outward calmness at all times. If you ere worried, don't let your child lee it. The "I-em-sure-everythlng-ie-

all-right" attitude helps the child to feel the same way.

Secondly, don't let your child de- velop any detrimenta) food habits. If you see signs of any, squelch them immediately.
