Surplus Poiaioes For (Iaiile Feed

OTTAWA. May 25—(CP)—— Sur- plus potatoeo, bought under the Federal prices support program. are balm! returned to farmers for cattle feed, a Government official said today.

The support board buys surplus New Brunswick and Prince Ed- ward Island potatoes at $1.15 a huniircdweight for Canada No. 1 grade. But the market is drnggy and there is little prospect of re- sale, officials said.

The board has been buying since April 1 and will continue to do so until the end of May. However, not iill applications for sale to the Board are acted on, and in some cases the farmer sells his goods elsewhere before the deiil goes through. Hence no accurate figures on tho total number of potatoes in- volved are available, board offi- cials said.

Nationalists Seek Escape By Sea _Rouie

BY FRED HAMIP%N

SHANGHAI May 25—(AP)—'I'he battle of Shanghai roared toward a climax tonight on the road to Woosung, where the fleeing gar- rison is ﬁghting to escape by sea.

Violent Communist cannonad- lng, turned on Woosung fortress and its approaches to cut off rc- treat, shook this great Chinese city throughout the first night under the Red banner.

The whole horizon to the north burst into ﬂame. The beaten Na- tionalists were believed to be blowing up fuel, boirib and aim- munltion dumps in tiheir with- drawal through the Red barrage.

Mortar fire and the hammer of machine - g u n s echoed through down-town Shanghai. Communist mop-up squads strove to dislodge stubborn rear-guards who hold Shanghai's Socchow Creek bridges covering the garrisonb retreat.

It was a night far stormler than any of the ihree-tvreek siege. The siege was broken abruptly early Wednesday “when the Communists marched unopposed into tho heart of Shanghai.

(Canton, the refugee capital in South China was deep in gloom. A dispatch from there said offic- ials believe Canton will be the next objective. The cabinet met in special session to discuss the situation.)

All communications were cut off to Woosiing. l0 miles north of Shanghai. It was impossible to tell if the Nationalists were mak- ing good on this Oriental “Dun- kerque......._.................. l . ..

All ‘Iuesdsy night thousands of Nationalist soldiers, trucks arid guns rolled north toward W00- sung. A large nilm-ber of Nation- alist ships were assembled there. waiting to take iihem off.

Employment Figures

OTTAWA, May 2b —iCP) —Eim- ploymeuit Ln Canada at the start of April was down from a month be- fore but up from n. year e rlier, the Dominion Bureau of Stat silcs re- ported today.

The bureau survey. covering major industrial divisions, said April payrolls were giightly lower than at March 1 but 12 per cent above the same time last year.

Average weekly earnings were up slightly from March 1 and 11 per cent above those oi April i of last year..

The index of cmployment in the eight loading industries, on the basis that i926 equalled 100, was 1876 on April i this year as com- parcel with 188.8 at March 1, and 1B6 6 at April 1, 1948. Average weekly earrilirgs amounted to $43.- 31 ¢ompared with $43.27 a month earlier, and $39.03 a y¢nr B80-

Heightencd industrial employ- ment as compared with s moﬂill earlier was reported in Prince Ed- ward lsland, Nova Scotia. Sask- atchewan, Alberta and British Columbia.

The trend in employment was downward in New Brunswick. Que- bec, Ontario and Manitoba. Sea- sonal curtailment in logging op- erations was the most lmwflln" factor in the reductions in the

first three provinces.

Dutch Would Send More ' Immigrants To Canada

OTTAWA, May 25--(CP)-—More human cargo is what The Nether- lands want to export to Canada.

"We would like to sell Iroator amounts of herring, choose and cocoa products in returirfor great- er quantities of Canadian wheat," H. D. Inuweo said today in an in- terview, “but molt of all wo would like to lend more immilr to-oo- pocially farm labor."

The president of tho Netherlands Agricultural Foundation and first vice-president of the International Federation of Agricultural Pro- ducer: stopped off on route to tho 10-day 1.F.A.P, conference in Guelph, Ont.

At tho conference, lie added, The Netherlands was prepared to sup- port a Canadian feod-tho-hungry- nations plan to rid producing coun- trloo of surplus food products.

Tho plan will be pl ced before tho oonfaroncs by H. . fiannam, president of the Canadian Federa- tion of Agriculture.

If approves b)‘ the I.I'.A.P. it will Do arded to the United Nations ood and Agricultural 0r-

le-

Briefly, tho plan provides for an international subsidy to be lup- ported Jointly by the surplus pro- ducing country and a United Na- tions agency.

Mesnwhile, the temporary solu- tion war for Canada t import greater quantities from ha Noth- erlando, thus making more dollars available for purchases in Canada.

He laid Tho Netherlands always would have a loft spot for Can- ada. Canadian soldiers had liberat- ed tho country from tho Nazis in the Second World War and Con- sds already had provided homo: for 15,000 farmers.

This year. 7.000 will come to Can- ada and in 1950, when shipping will be easier, The Netherlands ox- pectl to send 10,000 formers and their familial.

He emphasized the importance of more Nothorlondars emigrating to Canada.

,'.'Our ‘homes ' were decimated during tho war, but our population was not." he explained.

The Netherlands’. population now amounted to about 10,000.000 per- sons, a fow million below that of slip.
