Cutting Farm Production Costs, Says Mr. W.,R.,Shaw

"I am looking forward with not too much optimism to the future of our European markets" said Mr. Walter R. Shaw. Deputy Minister of Agriculture. as he addressed briefly the Maritime Fertilizer Council at the Charlottetown Ho- tel yesterday afternoon.

Mr. Shaw returned yesterday after representing Prince Edward Island at the recent conference of the International Federation of Agricultural Producers, held in Saltsjobaden, Sweden.

His lack of optimism in regard to the European markets was ex- plained as he told of the various farms he had visited in Denmark. Sweden, Norway, Scotland and Ira- land. Mr. Shaw stated that the main concern he encountered was the problem ,of cutting the cost of production, and yet he had found their production costs lower than that of Canadians, and their production average higher.

One outstanding factor Mr. Show had noticed was the use of grass instead of grain for the feeding of livestock. In a farm :lust outside of Edinburgh, he had seen one hundred tons of silage which had been placed in in pit over a. year ago and was still as sweet as ever. One farmer In Norwnyihnd out four crops and had taken sixteen tons of grass to the acre from his farm in one year.

Mr. Shaw also told the confer- ence that he had seen sheep and cattle pasturing together quite successfully. He commented on the method used by the Scotch farm- ers in selling their potatoes. After the crop is ready to dig it is sold by auction. and the pur- chaser is the one who has the

Advance Under Cover Of Naval Bombardment

TOKYO. July 2! - (Saturday)- -(AP) - American and south Korean ground forces recaptured Yongdok at 7:11 a.. m.. Korean

EDT. Thursday)-under. cover of heavy naval gunfire, Gen. Mec- ,Arthur'a headquarters. announced today.

U. S. troops under cover of a fierce naval bombardment Friday captured the ruined east coast city of Yongdok. I naval communique said.

Yongriok is 25 miles north of where the U. S. 1st Cavalry Divis- ion landed earlier this week in the first amphibious operation of the war.

U. S. Negro troops of the 25th infantry division, also undergoing a. baptism of fire. seized the rail and highway city of Yechon the same day. (a field dispatch said.

Yechon is 60 air miles northeast of the fallen bastion of Taejon

The Mth division. which has car- ried the burden of the Korean

fighting along with South Korean- troops, was making a stand in the hills a few miles southeast of Tac-

Jon.

The North Korean radio claimed the Red conquerors of that south Korean city of 150.000 population were pursuing the retreating Americans.

The surprise strike at Yongdok. which had been wrecked by British and American cruiser fire only Wednesday, kicked off at dawn Friday, the navy communique said.

American and South Korean troops advanced to Yongdok be- hind 3 U, s.-British naval barrage. For a. week the naval guns had been pounding away at the area. The communvique expressed belief this bombardment was "responsible for stopping a full-scale offensive" by the Reds down the coast toward Pusan. . ..

The navy communique did not identify the American troops in the action. It said. however. that during previous intense naval act- ivity around the town fleet units had been in touch with artillery forces of the 25th division.

A British cruiser which joined in intensive naval gunfire on this vital target was praised for its work.

A combined British and Ameri- can tan: force under Rear Admiral J. K. Higgins covered the attack.

QUEBEC. July 21 (GP) Premier Duplessla said today Com- munists should bo "quarantined."

"if someone has small-pox, his house is quarantined." said the Premier at a press conference. "But Communism is even worse than physical small-pox since it attacks the soul.

"Communists should be quaran- tined," he said. "Communists should be treated as enemies of the country and of our democratic institutions."

Recruiting Stations

OTTAWA, July 21-(CP)-Young Canadians, rallying to a call for thousands of new servicemen, are placing Canada's recruiting offic- es under their greatest strain since the war, the Defence Department reported tonight.

The Navy's Pacific Coast com- mand wired Ottawa for guidance after another day of swollen in- qulries, arising from Korea and the resulting decision to boost the size of the regular forces by 6,000 to 8,000 men,

The answer was a directive sent

-out to all Navy recruiting d-lvisions

notifying them that a total of lfil" men will be needed in the next month and giving instructions ac- cordingly. That figure means a rate of intake three times what it has been.

An official Navy statement sail the first draft. of '74 new sailors will reach the big Cornwallis train- ing base near Digby, N. 8.. Aug. 7. The second will arrive as week later.

Fun-ther drafts will take place every four weeks thereafter until the force has the men it's after- less than 1.000. The rate of drafts could, however, be doubled if enough men in the right categories offered at a sufficient rate. the statement said.

Up until this week the navy has been recruiting about to men a month because it was close to its ceiling. now lifted. The new men are being scught so two destroyers. the Crescent and Crusader. and the mlnesweepcr Oshawa can be brought up to operational strength.

The Defence Department report- cd marked interest by veterans, Both the R. C. A. F. and Navy said thelir reservists. all veterans, have been inquiring and saying they are ready to serve again if needed.

All three forces reported a mark- ed upsvrlng in recruiting applicants. However, the Ottawa Army Re- uruiting Station may bc typical of mg? g

U. s. Draft Chief Speaks E Of 7,0-(10,000 Man Machine

WASHINGTON, July 21-(AP) -In swift strides. the United States drove toward large-scale mobilisation today amid increas- ing aigns of stiff tax increases to help dcfray war costs.

The army called up some na- tional guard troops and reserves on 30-day notice. '

The air force said it may seek to draft veterans of the Second World War, but still hopes to get. along with volunteers.

Maj.-Gen. Lewis B. Hershey. U. 3. draft chief. spoke of a 7.000.000,- msn war machine. It was not clear, however. whether the figure represented the total draft goal or manpowe. needs for combiu r' military-industrial replacements.

The Senate and House armed services commitiee voied over- whelmingly io wipe out the pres- ent 2,006,8l2-men limit on the size of the armed forces and to "freeze" all enlistmenta for one yeer. The Senate promptly ap- proved the "freeze" action.

Administration leaders predicted that both sections of the military legislation will go to the White

House early next week.

The Senate also passed and sent to the House a bill giving Presi. dent Truman control over the op- craiinn of foreign ships in Ameri- can waters.

Truman loriay ordered it major

govrrnmenl agencies to curb con- struction. tighten credit and hold down their buying of items using critical materials. g Obviously disturbed over hoard- ing, the sdministratlon sped work on a report to convince the public that fears of a food shortage are baseless. The report will be made public tomorrow.

Besides calling up some national guard and rcsorve units. tiiejrmy also announced it is negotiating with Cadillac Motors in Detroit for more production of tanks.

So far. Americans fighting in South Korea have been aorcly pressed for adequate weapons to combat Russian-made tanks used by the Communist lnvuion forces. The army has about 6,000 combat- worihy tanks. light and medium types. Most were built during the Second World War. but many have been modernized.

Squadron Prepares For Korean Dulles

MONTREAL, July 21- (CP)-.- The 350-odd members of R.C.A.F. dx Transport Squadron are busy with preperations for Korean war- transport duties but a bit dazzled with all the attention they are getting.

The unit, which has done the bulk of the air force's long-range work since the end of the war, has been ordered into the Ameri- can trans-Pacific airlift ferrylng men and supplies to Korea. But the Canadian airmen consider the assignment "routine."

"Look at everyone. getting pic- tures taken and names in the newspaper-and all we're golngto do is get a suntan and steak din- ners in Los Angeles," one airman said today. ,

But. despite outward nonchal-i ance. the men of 428 are glad the waiting is over. They heard the! "buzz" about their new job week ago but it wasn't official un- til Thursday.

tario.

Decision that Summersido would be the most suitable

spot for navigational training

was made by Defence Min-

ister Claxton after conferring with Air Marshal Curtis,

Chief of the Air Staff today.

Reason for the selection of Prince Edward Island for the new international air training school, it is said. is first-

ly on account of freedom from fog, and secondly because .

the aerial conditions of the Gulf and adjacent waters ap-

proximate combat conditions training schools.

The R. C. A. F. was unable to in-; form The Guardian today whether! the new air training plan For Sum- snerslde would have any effect on the proposals earlier this year to establish a bombing and gunnery school off the north coast of the Island. An Air Force spokesman said he did not believe the two matters were directly related. and pointed out that the visitors are to be trained in navigation, not bombing or gunnery.

3'! WEEKS' TRAINING ,

Airmen who are scheduled to. reach Sumsnerside on October 901 this year. are slated to spend 71 weeks at the large air navigation school on which the Federal Gov- ernment has spent many millions of dollars.

Airmen to be received for train- ing there will come from France, Belgians. -The Netherlands. Nor- way and Italy. It Is expected also

that groups of airmen will come from Portugal for Irelnlng. . ,

A U. S. COMMAND POST, Ko- rea, July 21-Four Knrcan Reds. posing as Smith Koreans. borrow- ed flve gallons of gasoline tonight from an American engineering de- techment and then opened fire 'on the, Americans.

Lieut. Ward Neville. 32. of San Francisco, told of the adventure which illustrates the trickery practised by the Korean Commun- tats.

Neville was setting a demolition charge when four men in South Korean army uniforms drove up in an American weapons carrier. Three spoke English, one quite well.

They smiably discussed the bridge demolition job. One of them blew a whistle and about I dozen men in white came out from the enemy side of the bridge and helped put in the demolition charge. When the Koreans blew the whistle again, the men in white left.

The Koreans then asked for five gallons of gasoline. which Neville provided.
