Potato Surplus Figure Still indefinite

No one knows at the present time whether or not the Province will have a surplus of two million bushels of potatoes, s local potato exporter informed The Guardian last night. Ho was commenting on a. report that the Province would have such a surplus.

Canada's surplus, he said. is about 10.000000 bushels. The fact, however, that all vegetables, in- cluding potatoes are cheaper now than they have been for-several years. coupled with the fact that meets and practically all other foods are higher than they have ever been, should result in a sub- stantial increase in domestic con-

" sumption.

In the meantime. the Province is paying special attention to all its export markets and produce dealers are hopeful that the in- creased local demand. caused by lower prices to the consumer. will take up s. largo portion of what.- ever surplus there may be.

It is s long time before next. spring, the exporter argued; so that by the time May rolls around, there could easily be few potatoes in the Province either for export or for domestic consumption.

ledge of the new process but would be studying it. '

If it should eventually result in increasing Canada's capacity to turn out raw steel ingots. they said, it. would not. necessarily solve the steal-shortage problem unless accompanied by increased rolling and fabricating capacity.

Meanwhile, T. W. Lippert, chief editor oi the magazine Iron Age. said in New York that the report of the process is "good news, if it is true.”

Lippert said it sounded some- thing like a process used in Swed- en but half an hour seemed “all awfully short time" for refining iron ore into steel.

Under present Canadian proces- ses, iron ore is smelted in 10- fcet-hlgh blast furnaces with coke and limestone. The pig-iron. tapped from the blast furnace, is

-turned into steel after heating in

open-hearth furnaces with scrap metal and other ingredients.

At Hamilton. one of Canada's three basic-steel centres. an ex- pert. said the process had been thoroughly investigated at Domin- ion Foundries and Steel Limited and it was understood it looked fairly practical.

The expert, who would not allow use of his name, added, however- that widespread use o! the process is "far in the dim future."

Montreal headquarters oi‘Dom- inlon Steel and Coal Corporation ssid they were "studying" the re- ports.

one Provincial Government of- iiclal at Montreal said it would be "a really big thing for Quebec" if the process turned out to be practical for large-scale steelmak-

ing.

He noted that. Quebec has vest quantities of iron ore in the Un- geve region and its hydro capac- ity. nearly 6.000.000 horsepower. is the largest oi_any Canadian Pro- vince.

Greenland bases from Reserve would begin in a few days.
