150 Attend Quiet Potato Growers Meeting last Night At Tignish

-Mr. Leo Mclsasc. speaking on behalf of the P. E. I. Potato Board. uidreased an attentive audience of .ppi-oxlmateLv 150 persons It I Paulo growers meeting at Tlgnish mt night.

A well conducted and orderly mum; wu presided over by Mr. Gr-ggory Mclnnis. Tignuhr Who mica the purpose of the meeting ma asked for is good hearing for all who wished to hke part in the

ion.

d"y?;.”McIsa.ac said although he Wu not oonnected with the Potato Board at the present time he had been last year. He reviewed the reasons for setting up the board and the selling agency and said it is an attempt for the first time for the farmers of the province to organize in an effort to protect the industry.

He explained the question on the ballot for the forthcoming plebis- cite and said the word "compul- sion" had been played up far too much by some interests. Under the proposed pool system everyone who bought potatoes to sell outside the province would have to pay the same price thereby controlling the cm of potatoes to the trade and ssinbllshing a uniform price.

"The law of supply and demand is not settinglthe price of pota- was today," he said. but those dealers who went south last spring and sold P.g.I. seed on the southern market. Under a pool system this would not be done. If the vote is in favour of the board but turns down the compulsory selling agency "we would have A board with no auth- ority and a return to the system of today when a difference of five to thirty cents a bag is being paid for potatoes."

M). Gerald Handrahan. Tlgnlsh. said that handling potatoes under the Marketing Board is easier but that farmers would have to see that the hired personnel of the board did their job right. The chairman of the meeting considered that if farmers had set up study groups and listened to farm forum a pleb- iscite would not have been neces- sary.
