Says No To Iceland’: New Limits
LONDON (Reuters) —— Britain Tuesday night refused to accept lc!eland’s decision to extend the latter’s offshore fishing limits to 12 miles from four Sept. 1.
A government declaration said it would be Briainis duty to pre- vent any “unlawful attempt to interfere with British fishing ves- sels on‘ the high seas," including areas over which Iceland cl‘-aims exclusive fishing rights. _
Britain called on Iceland to start negotiations for an “accept- able” solution before Sept. '1. Britain sent Iceland :1 note on the issue Thursday. The declar—a- tion said: *
“Claims to exercise exclusive jurisdiction in relation to fishing in areas outside the normal lim- its of territorial waters are wholly unwarranted under inter- national law.”
Iceland decided to take its ac- tion afber the Geneva Conference on th Law of the Sea in April failed to reach agreement on the limits of territorial waters.

OTTAWA, — (Spectil) — A three-man Prince Edward Island delegation, headed by Agricul- ture Minister Eugene Cullen, made representation to the Fed- eral Government Tuesday to have potatoes placed under the Agriculture Prices Stafbilization Act.
“We're very hopeful that some- thing will be doiie,” said Mr. Cullen. The other members of the delegation were W. A. Mac- Lennan, chairman of the P. E. 1. Potato Marketing Board, and R. L. Burge, member of the Mar- keting Board, .and a potato deal- er and grtower.
The three conferred with L. W. Peansall, cliairrnan of the Agri- culture Price Stabilization Board. Mr. Cullen said they would be conferring with Agri-

The three also held meetings with the four P. E. I. P.’s while here, and urged ‘these members to use their influence to have potatoes covered by the price stabilization legislation.
“It’s very important to the Is- land to have potatoes placed under the Act," said Mr. Cullen-.
Potatoes are not one of the nine products spelled out in the Legislotiion that automatically were covered by it when it was passed by Barliament last ses- sion. Both Prime Minister John Diefenbaker and Mr. Harloiess pointed out, however, that other products could come under the

CHARGES PHONEY OR EXAGGERATED
OTTAWA,(C‘1P) —— The govern- ment was charged Tuesday with contradictions between election promises regarding unemploy- ment and federal-zprovinicial tax- sharing agreementls and wha-t it has actually done on these two fronts.
Lionel Chevrier, former Liberal trianrsport minister, said that if Prime Minister Diefeiilbakers an- nounced $1,185,000,000 public worlcs prograim for this year to combat unemployment “was 1.ot phoney (it) was certainly grossly exaggerated.” The government had started no maiol‘ pI=0iec«t in the first four or five months of this year.
Promises of a federal - pro- vincial conference iirirneldiately
after the election also had not
materialized, he said. The pre- liminary one convened last an- tumn —""did not begin” to deal with fiscal problems and the gov- ernmentfis posif-tlon in this field “is one of coni°«u:sion and contra- diction as far as the prime min- ister is cor1ucerned.”
Mr. Crhevrier spoke in the sec- ond and final day of debate on a Liberal motion of non-c~on- fidcnce to discuss unemployment and tax-sharing principles among other things.
The motion. second of its kind presented by the Iliberals this session, was defeated by a Vote of 155 to 43 at the night sitting. Liberals received CCF support against the big Progressive Con- servative majority. _ _
Earlier Tuesday, Prime Minis-

And he exxpr.es~sed hope that France will gain political stabil- ity and economic prolpspenity un- der Premier de Gaulle.

He quoted a Commons speech Monday by William J. Browne, minister without portfolio, as proof the Liberals were right in election campaign claims that tax reduction-s were a faster remedy for recession than public wonhs.
Mr. Browne, St. J ohn’s East M.P had said no great public works of major character had been or could have been inaugurated be- fore the Commons started sitting May 12.
Nor, Mr. Browne had said, could he personally point to “any- thing (in public works) that has actually given great en1ploy- ment.”

The Lieutenant-Governor at that time told the throng then that he was satisfied that the building that would rise over the stone would have a long and eventful life un- der the monarchy of Britain. Major McNutt said that “today we can be more certain and more sure that the same senti- ments will echo through the corridors and classroom-s of Birchwood.”
He said that he was positive that the city’s school board must feel proud of their endeavours” . . as well they might.”
In closing his official speech. Major McNutt directed his talk towards the students, advising them to take full advantage of the opportunities that are now available with the erection of Birchwood. He concluded that the well-educated student of today will become a good citizen to- morrow, will live happier and, above all . . . “serve God, their country and their fellow man.”
Prior to the‘ official laying ceremony, Mi-ssiMu-riel St. John, winner of the recent essay con- test dealing with the topic "Birch- wood High School”, placed the original copy of her assey behind the cornerstone where it will lay until the people of Charlotte- town see fit for a more modern establishment to destroy the school or until the building ltsef is destroyed in some other man- ner.
