Strong Representations

The lion. Gordon Churchill, Mini.-.ter of Trade, reports that the Federal floveriiniciit has made "strong represcntatioiis" to the United States Government urging that the restrictioiis on imports of rye from this country he discon- linucd. Mr. (lhurchill was refcrriii-1 to President F.iseiiliowcr's recent announcement that the restrictions. which have been in effect for the past three years, will he rcnciied for another two )'cai's. Had the Prcsirlciit not acted, the law would have espired at the end of June. complaint of the (.ftllSt'l'X'1-ilHiN when in flllfl”-bilim" was that the St. Laurent Govern- ment was not forceful enough in its efforts to persuade the t'iiitcd States to allow a greater volume of (iaii:-idiaii farm and other pt'o(iui'lS to enter the country.

Federal Liberal Strategy in the excitement of cabinet- farming at Ottawa. writes Grant iievter iii the Winllipvi FTC" PTM51 the first meeting of the Liberal call- ciis attracted little attention. But it was important because the dis- :-iius-ion was free and full and the nicmhrrs left the caucus room with a clear understanding of why Mr. St. Laurent resigned and what the r'titude of the Opposition to the f'.nvernmt"nf will be in the first g,...,.nn nt the new parliament. .x.-muting to Mr. Dexter. who is a leading Liberal ioumalist. the fir!t mini agreed upon was that Mr. lhefcnbakcr has been the most grossly under-estimated politician since Mr. King in the period 1921-30. R. R. Bennett was the first Conser- vative leader to recognize in Mr. King ll brilliant, political leader. The prescnt Liberals agreed that they must not fall into the error of be- lieving that the Dlefermbsker Gov- emmcnt can be defeated easily or

dency to criticize the st. Laurent Gov:-vnsnt for nduilm. Mr. St. IAIIIUII explllned this in great de-

Llberal party. It stood for much lower tariffs than the Liberal party advocated. The Progressive party in 1925 could not support the Con- servative party under Mr. Meighen. which advocated high tariff in- creases -- ”brick for brick" - with the United States. Thus in 1925, Liberal forces, official and non- official. had won the election. In 1037. Liberal forces had not done so. The main policies advocated by Mr. Die-fenbaker. and opposed by the Liberal party. had been sup- ported by the splinter groups. The ('.C.F. and Social Credit had stood for liigherpold age pensions and payment on farm-stored grain. Therefore there was no escape from the fact that the Liberals had lost the election and its opponents had won it. In these circumstances. the liberals agreed that the sense of the county is that Mr. Dietenbaker siiollld have an opportunity to carry out the measures be advocated in the campaign. The time for corn- parison had not yet come and mean- time the new floveriiment should not he harassed or obstructed. There was one important qualifica- tion to this. Members were warn- ed to keep their constituency or- ganizations in good condition in case Mr. Diefenbakcr should call it snap election. But the Liberals do tint believe there will be ti .sect)nri dis- solution until next year.

Farm Statistics

FlEl.lltPS released by the Domiti- ion Rm-eaii of Statistics show that the faint-occupied area of tfaiiada was only slightly smaller in lflfifl than in lflfit. but the number of farms declined almost eight per cent in the same five-vcar period. in- creases in farm area. in the three Prairie provinces. almost outweigh- ed the declines in other provinces, but the number of farms decreased in all prm'iiices.

The total fai'm area of ('aiiad.'i. in June 1956, occupied 173323.691 acres compared with 174,046,654 in lflfil and l73,.366.06.'l acres in 1941. in Prince Edward Island it declined in l,tl6.3.4Fn3 acres from l.flfl:').3fl4 in 19.31. The total number of farms recorded in the 1956 census was .'s'i'.'i,t)l3 for (Tanada as a whole. a decrease of 48.076 from the 623.091 farms recorded in 193.1. The figures for Prince Edward Island were 9.- 19.36 as against 10.137 in

132 in l'.t3l. The average area per farm. for (Yanada as it whole, increased

from 279 acres in 1951. to 302 acres in 1936.

it should he noted that. for (Ten- s'lJS purposes. a farm is defined in: "a holding on which agriculture operations are carried out ....It must be (at three acres or more in size or (bi from i to 3 acres in size with agricultural production in 19.3” valued in 5230 or more".

P.E.l. LOBSTER CATCH

Sir.-A mixture of ciirii-sity and wxatioii is the cause of this letter.

i am curious as to the reason why the preliminary figures of I Fisheries Official regarding the lolister catch and value on Prince ltldward island rated head lines. in what is considered a national news paper. almost on a par with the Commonwealth Prime Mlnll- lers' conference in England.

I am also curious to know where this same official got the infor- mation neportcd by you. and from whom the prices were received. It is to certainty that no one connect- ed with the Industry gave Iucli false figures which are mroneous lo the extent of almost ten cents per pound: and it is to be assumed that the official is not in the busi- T1955.

My vexation comes. from tbs fact that a gentlemen": a5ACCl'I18lII with local papers not to publish reports detrimental to local indul- trv. seems of little value. The agreement stemmed from untrue reports. in previous years. of sur- plus production of island lobsters. which caused falling prices in all markets. and subsequent losses of thousands of dollars to fishermen and industry. .

Rut my vexation does not stop with your otherwise esteemed paper. This same matter had been repeatedly pointed out to officials of the Federal Department of Fisheries who may have perhaps acted unconsciously in this par- ticular incident. but. who (Ind the newspapers sit well! should let. their facts and figures correct be- fore neivscastlng to at least the North American continent.

Much harm liu Ilresdy been done. Mr. Editor. Much should be done immediately to correct the error, and rectify the false impreo nlon created. in future. all who get into print should. not only get things put down correctly. but keep In mind when writing on Fisheries that we have four other Atlantic province! whose produe firm. or lack of it. affects world markets.
