fence with which he was charged.

Mr. MacP'hce said he understood by the plea of "not guilty" that Mr. Scales indicated he did not mean "not. guilty", n the ense that he possessed. 9. license, but rather that he was opposed to certain principles of the potato marketing regula- tions.

It was to the hearivng of evidence hi this first charge that the entire afternoon was devoted.

The second charge was laid un- der the same Marlfetjrigy-Act auth- orzalion. and changed that Mr. Scales violated the act by market- ing table stock potatoes grown by him of on his behalf without first having written, printed or other- wise legibly inscribed his produc- er's licence number on the tag re- quired by the Dominion Fruit, Veg- etable, and Honey Act. to be at- tached to each container.

About thirty dealers. pmducers. and others interested in the potato industry were present in court- room, .

Mr. MacPhee indicated that the case would be based on the con- tentori that Mr. Seals as a pro- ducer had sold potatoes without obtaining a licence.

Cites Correspondence

Mr. scales told of correspondence and conversation with Mr. Mac- Donald leading up to this case. He said he had told Mr. MacDonald that tzhat he was unable to sell his potatoes at Marketing Board'l”'loes and therefore could not see his way clear to voluntarily support the board. After conversation with Mr, MacDonald at which time the latter had been unable to tell him where he could sell potatoes at floor prices set by the board. he has had shpped potatoes below the floor price and had advised Mr. Mac-Donald to that effect.

Correspondence between Mr. Scales and Mr. MacDonald was ac- cepted in evidence.

Mr. MacDonald. who is chair- man of the P. E. 1. Potato Market-

ing Board, was the first. witnms

called by the prosecution, He said Mr. Scales has no producer's license and no dealer's license. He said Mr. scales in conversation had ad- vised him that he was not going to obtain a producer's license. later advised him at the sole of potatoes.

Mr. Scales questioned Mr. Moc- Donald regarding the interpreta- tion of certain words. pas-t.lculsi-ly "marketing", and "transportation".

Mr. MsoPhee said these were de- fined in the governing act. Mr. scales stated that the act said "transportation in any nrianner", and asked "does this mean cany- ing a basket of potatoes from ttie house to the ham"?

Mr. MacDonald queried by Mr. Scales said the Potato Marketing Board is composed of three pm- ducers: Allie MacNeill. Prilnce County: David Wright, Kings Coun- try; Donald A. MacDonald. Queens County; a dealer representing iihe Co-ops. Jerome O'Brien: and a dealer representing all oliher ship- pers. Ool. 0.1:. Full.

Board Member Violator

Mr. MacDonald in reply to a question from Mr, scales regarding knowledge of any member on the Board breaking regulations or our- dm that the Board had issued. said he believed then was one instance. This was with respect to order 9 - the some infraction as was being dealt with in this case. but he add- ed thiil. this matter has not been

-invostlrzatecl or prover: yet.

Mr. Scales extriesed surprise that this man had been allowed to op- erate without a license when lie, himself, had been charged with a similar offence. Mr. lWaoDonald said that this man has am indic- nted that he does not intend to take out a licence and Mr,-. scum had clearly and definitely lndicat. ed his contrary position on this point.

Hoiuecleonlng Principle

Mr. scales said "as a general principal we houscclean at home before we go outside to houaeclean". Mr. Mac Donald repled: "Tilers is this difference between you and tlik man, He'has not advised the board that he is not going to ob- tain I Producers " and you have done so." Mr. scales said he had complained to Mr. MacDonald that there were no teenth in the enforcement of the regiilatlons set down by the board. and said "I may be forced to request an ad- ioumment to bring in witness.-e to show that those members who try tn tell me what to do are ". MY. "---Not w

Mr. MsoP'hee contended many tines during the afternoon that much of the evidence heard was ir- nlerlnt to'ohe facts of the one before the court. and ve notice before odioimicnem. the he would msist mat. the future hearing be kept to the facts.

First Defence Witness

Col. G.E. Full, one of the mem- bers of the Potato Marketing Board. and representing the dealers on the board, was the first witness called by Mr. Scales said he has a dealers license but has no producers llcansep although he produces about 150 acres of potatoes, He said this lack of license was known among the board members, but was never dis- cussed al; fl. board meeting.

He said he has sold 96 per cent of his production without a lic- ense, and admitted that he had purchased potatoes below the floor price set by the Board. ll-2 said that he is president of the Potato -Dealers Association.

Recalls Meeting

He said the whole scheme ofl dealers' and producers licenses was discussed at. a meeting called by the Provincial Marketing Board in August or September, 1962, at which meeting Mr. J.O.C. Camp- bell. chairman of the board. dis- cussed dealersl licences and pro- ducers' licences.

He said Mr. Campbell at that. moeting gave as policy, fi.i-st, that tho grcwerst licences were to be indicative of the dmlre of the board support. Those who paid in- dicated support. and those who didn't, indicated disagreement. or non-support of the board. second- ly. Mr. Campbell as chairman of the Provincial Marketing Board. and as representing the Attorney General, said that there would be no prosecutions this season for non-payment of producers" licen- ces. Because of this understand- mg and at the request of Mil'. Campbell the dealers agreed to pay their licences under certain condi- tions. He said trliat that is the reason that he has not bought. his prod-uccm' licence. He said if he has to pay for his producer's lic- ence he will do so, but it he has to do this Mr. Campbell has defin- itely fooled the dealers.

He said he has purchased pota- toes below the floor price set by the board because no one could pay the board price in view. of present market prices.

Referring to the meeting attend- ed by Mr. Campbell, he said it was indicated that the dealers' licences would pay the cost of operating the board. and that producers lic- ences would be used for-ring-rot, and disease control, etc.

Apply For Licence

The next witness called by Mr. scales was Mr. George P. Thomp- son. manager of Associated Ship- pers. He said Mr. R. C. MacLenii was president of this organization. Col. 0; E. Full was vice-president, and the witness himself was man- aging director. He said their firm -buys about lo per cent of the po- tatoes in P. E. I. The firm has no dealer's licence-they had made application but - haven't. received come. He said his firm contends that the Marketing Board holds a credit in funds collected under the levy system round to be invalid and which had been paid under protect. They had applied for their licence on that basis. The board had written them advising that they procure their licence within I certain time, and they took this as it refusal to give the firm a licence. He sold the company had paid board prices up to R certain time and then found they couldn't -do business at prices set. by the board. so they had then paid less than the minimum price set.

Mr. Elmer MaoEa:-liern. farm foreman for M-:. scales at Free- town was called and told of potato prodiiction and grading Ind ship- ping operations at thescales ware- house at neetown.
