House of ‘Commons, Ottawa

As the embargo will greatly nf-

fect tho home markets the Guard-

ian obtained the views of Mr. Ilig-

igins and M-r, ilenry J. Phillips yes-

terdoy. - . .\lr, Phillips, who recently spent three months in Cuba statedthat the ‘Havana market itself takes care of 25,000 bags of potatoes a week. The Canadian price was appreciably lower than the Ameri- cnn price for the reason that out- side and inside competition had to

‘be considered. With a rise in pric-

es many potato growing countries who were not now able to market in Cuba, would then be able to do so, inside competition was also very keen. notwithstanding the fact that the Canadian growers were selling far more potatoes than the Americans.

Mr. Higgins was of the opinion that with, the embargo in opera- tion, the Cuban market, the only other outlet fo_r potatoes, would be flooded, and a drop in prices would result. The potatoes now on the road would have to be sent South, one reason being the need of the freight cars they were oc- cupying,
