Sees Campaign 0f,SeveraI Months In Koreawar

By .1.M. ROBERTS. Jr. (Associated Press News Analyst) Alternating reports of success

and failure of the Allied forces in Korea serve merely to record the ups-and downs of a campaign which is Just beginning.

It is notable that U. S. Defence Department observers have gone out of their way to warn against over-optimism.

More and more units will have to be committed piecemeal to the delaying action. and it would he too optimistic to believe that they will not be gradually enveloped and largely lost.

Nor is it to be too confidently expected that the Allied build-up in south Korea will be permitted to proceed without interference in other quarters. . ,

Just as Russia has gradually forced the Allies to spread their economic resistance more and more thinly around the whole world. so she may force the thin- ning of military resistance.

There is beginning to be talk about use of the A-bomb to "end 'it all quickly." But most of it -seems to come from people who are only vaguely aware of the uses of the bomb and of the Korean war theatre.

While there has been talk of using the A-bomb for tactical pur- poses. it remains primarily a strat- sgic weapon. The Korean fighting is primarily tactical, with small troop concentrations on which zoriventional air power is just as effective 4 when the weather per- mits its use -- and with the North Korean "support area" offering little or no industrial concentra- tion as a target.

In fact. the "absolete" propeller fighters and fighter bombers are proving themselves most valuable in this type of warfare.

It appears more and more that ground strength will be the decis- ive factor. It is notable how quick- ly Gen. MacArthur learned that

inquiring inte'tise operations of the l'ishor1nen's Loan Board was held yesterday at Stella Maris Hall. North ltuatico. With Judge .7. I. Desltochas. Commissioner. PI'OIidlng- The following witnesses were examined by Mr. .7. O. C. Campbell, K.C., Commission coun- sel: Msssrs. Joseph L. Peters, Fred C. Gallant. Alfred Gallant. Angus Blacquiere, Fiieas Gallant. Richard Gauthier, George W. Hall- ings. James C. Biacquiere, Peter Henry Blacquiere. Ferdinand Dou- cstte. and Bertram Blacqulere. At the adjournment of the hearing. the Commissioner announced that the next sitting would b. on Monday. April, 17. at 10 an. at Mount Carmel.

Followlns is a transcript or the evidence taken yesterday:

Joseph L. Peters Sworn

Q: Mr. Peters. you're a usher. man at Rustico? A: Yes.

Q: You have had dealings with the Fisherrnen's Lou) sou-d ggq you were always under the 1m. Dreaslon that these were loans rather than relief? A: I was.

Q: You have received loans from the Fisher-men's Loan Board? A: Ya. I couple of small loans and a bigger one later.

Q. You had in the first instance gotten a couple of small loans- by small loans we mean under 575.00. A: Yes-they were forty to sixty dollars.

Q: Were these incorporated into a larger loan later? A: Yes. added up together.

Q: Those you had to pay off by deductions from your gasoline tax? A: Yes.

Q: You never at any time un-

but loans? A: I didn't think they would collect of! gasoline if they were a donation. '

Q: That's one point. Were there there any irregularities that you know of or heard of? A: No, there wasn't any that I know of.

Q: That will be all. Mr. Peters.

' Fred c. Gallant Swans

Q: Are you a fisherman in Bus- tico area? A: That's right.

Q: In our talk previously you spoke and mentioned that you had had some loans. . Yes.

Q: When did you get them? A: Before the war.

Q: Were they small loans?-you don't have to give the exact am- ounts. A: The Largest was 370.00.

Q: some as low as 85.00? A: I'm. not just sure. One was 370.00, one was S50. and I think there were two smaller ones.

Q: You said before that it was the general impression of all ilsh- ermcn-about the time you were getting those smaller amounts- ihat they were ioheip the fisher- men out. A: it was the usual thing to think of them that way. You couldn't swear it was a grant.

Q: They must have been put through as loans-a note was tak- en for them. The primary object was to help the nsherman out. A: Yes. V

Q: There was some mention that some of the loans were so small they wouldn't buy much gear. At such a time of year-say in February-you couldn't buy gear anyway.

Q: You heard some tall: about elections? A: I suppose so-in Rustico.

Q: Were more loans applied for around election time? A: Talk was around that some people were getting loans who had never wet a line;

Q: I was going to suggest-pos- sibly the fact of more loans a- round election time-one would assume that that would be. from the fishes-man's point of view in any event. the time to go and get a loan.

Thank you very much Mr. Gal- lent.

Alfred Gallant Sworn

Q: Perhaps you could'iei1 us what you know about ii.shermen's loans. A: I got one loan, I think it was in '38-for 3300.00 and I certainly appreciated the loan. Had a hard time to get it. Made two or three trips to Charlotte- town. Mr. Cox was chairman of the Loan Board. After some dif- flcuiiy I got it with the under- standing that I had to pay it back. Previous to that I got two small loans-42.5 and MO. I Just don't know the amount-the three of them were put together and I just paid off with my gasoline rebate- sometimes I could get off with paying only 815.00 or 820.00 of! the rebate. When I got the loans 1 was under the impression that they had to be paid back.

Q: When you got the larger loan. the smaller ones were put in with it and you have been psy- ing thorn altogether? A: Paying every year. In fact I don't owe very much now. I am not in a position to make any definite statement. but it appears there was a lot of money given out to people that never put. their feel inside a boat.

Q: You would say then that there was not enough investigat- ion made of people before giving them a loan? A: The money was given out so they could buy bicy- ales.

Q: What you mean is that men- ey given out for loans would and its way into the purchasing of bicycles? A: I couldn't swear to that.

Q: You wouldn't suggest that any large amount went the wrong way? A: No. lost some of the cases. in general fiahermenb loans were for fishers-ien's gear-those email loans, I didn't feel that they were very much benefit to a fish- erman. The loan of 3800.00-I could do something in '.h it. I purchased gear with it and it was the means

Q: That's dne. Mr. Gallant. thank you very much.

Angus Blaoqniere Sworn

Q: Tell us what you have to say about iishermerfs loans. A: I got a couple of leans-one for 3150.00, two for 340.00-and always baditlnmymindlbadto pay it. They were loans.

Q: Not too many fishermen squandered it around? A: No.

Q: Fairly well used? A: Yes. That's about all I have to say.

Fileaa Gallant Sworn

Q: Are you a fisherman of North Rustico? A: Yes.

Q: What have you to say? A: I got a couple of small loans and signed a couple of notes.

Q: Was that before the war? A: Oh yes.

Q: That would be about '36, '87 or '38-whet did you consider the loans were? A: They come up to around 375 or 380 so I had to pay them back. There were a couple of notes. One note was signed by someone else with my name for around S30.00.

Q: Do you know what happen- ed? A: No, I don't.

Q: You paid the other ones? A: Paid some of them.

Q: Would you express any opin- ion as to whether you thought they were relief? A: After the storm?

Q: The storm relief wasn't sup- posed to be paid back. A: I never made any loans in later years.

Q: Thank you very much. That's all.

Richard Gauthier Sworn

Q: What have you to say about tlshermen'.sioans? A: I made three loans-all small loans, paying them back. When I got the loans I firm- ly believed that it was for relief; I only used two for fishing.gear- the other I used for groceries.

Q: What about before the war- lt was a pretty hard time? A: Yes it was. I

Q: Even without the storm. it was a hard time. A: Yes. I know we lost our nets in that storms

Q: The substance of your evid- ence is that although you have been able to pay back on N19” old loans. some of you aretflrinly convinced in your own minds it was a form of relief? A: nder- stood I would never be h the-red for PE)'meni-

Q: There are two IYPEI 09 11'' regularities mentioned-fishermen getting money in the SW” ii! .ioans. and a little more rush at election time for loans-know anything of that. or any knowledge of that? A: No. no knowledge of that.

"The ultimate purpose of the agricultural scientist and research worker is not to make the farmer more prosperous, nor is it to find whys to pile up ever increasing surpluses of food". said Sir William 088. director of the Rpthamsted Experimental Station in England, at Rotary luncheon . yesterday." But our purpose is to discover ways of increasing our farm efficiency so that the farmer gains by in-. creased production and reduced costs and the industrial worku- Eains by being able to purchase cheaper food."

Sir William said his party of scientists had not come to Canada to teach, but to study our agri- cultural methods in a. similar man- ner to the Canadian scientists in their visit to Britain last year. TM" 15 nothing like meeting people. shaking hands and talking Wlether to set an understanding of what our opposite numbers in Canada are doing.

He said he had been in Canada on numerous occasions since he was an agricultural student here. and as Director of the MacAu1ay Institute on Soil Fertility. he had it very close connection and had retained his association with earl- ier friends and continually made new ones.
