l Price for cheese

OTTAWA, Sept 15 — (OP)- Agriculture Minister Gardiner to- day told a deiegation from the Oii- lario Cheese Producers Associa- tion the Government will try to for cheese exported to Great Britain under the next contract.

The minister intimated the do- mestic market might be opened to Canadian cheese when the present British contract for 112,000,000 pounds Ls filled.

The cheese producers told the minister it was hard to obtain in- creased cheese production under present conditions. One of the chief difficulties was s shortage of labor on the farms and they urged some increase in the price. No specific figure was mentioned.

Believe Airman Perished in Nfld. wilds

ST. JOHN'S, Nfld. Sept. 14 — (CP)-— A note found in the wind- whipped wreckage of a. piano in western Newfoundland indicated

_ tonight that s young American who

hoped to fly the Atlantic two years ago died in the wilderness trying to walk to safety.

The plane was that of Tommy Smith, Clarksburg, W. Va.. who took off from Old Orchard Beach. Me.. in May, 1939. and was never heard of again.

Vlgilant airmen in s. Royal Can- adian Air Force patrol airplane spotted the Smith machine in rough terrain in August, and after it had been identified by markings on the wings they reported the find to the United States army air corps. and officers of that. service visited the scene and found the note.
