Czechs And Russians Sign Trade Agreement

s

PRAGUE. July 13 - (AP) - Czechoslovakia and Russia an- nounced Saturday night a five-yea: agreement exchanging Russia/n food for Czech machinery and manufactured goods.

It was viewed as possibly set- tlng up a basis for an eastern Eur- opean economy of barter for coun- tries nct participating Ln the Mar- shall plan.

Informed sources said it seem- ed likely heire that Poland and other Eastern European states which turned their backs on the Paris conference might have been offered similar increased trade pants.

farmers.

| Progressive Conservative candi- date A. A. MacDonald and John Dickey, Liberal, held no meetings but travelled the riding Saturday meeting electors.

. The result will have an impor- tant bearlng on the slim Liberal

_maJority izn the House of Com-

‘ mons.

Ninle cabinet ministers helped "IR 32-year-old Liberal candidate stump the riding. ..

i Liberals urged electors to make

,a team oi Mr. Dickey and Gordon B. snot, Halifax merchant who‘ hol s the other seat for the dual

constituency.

' Mr. Dickey, who retired from the Air-my aa a maim- after assisting at Japanese war criminal trials, was a law partner of W. C. MacDonald, Liberal, whose death last Novem- ber left. the seat vacant.

‘llhe C. C. P. slogan urged sup- porters to make Mr. Macintosh "a

Ifighting partner for Clarie Gillls," hnember of Parliament for Cape Breton South and only C. C. F. member from an Eastern Canada riding. Mr. Macintosh was the first candidate nominated while the parties waited five months for an- nouncement of the lay-election date.

Progressive Conservatives advo- cated the election of "a big man |for a big job." and made much of the buiness sucecss of MrfiMcDm- .sld, a six-foot Cape Bretnner who retired as a construction company ‘head last year.

H. S. FISHIHIi

(Continued from Page i)

The end of meat rationing and tightening of purse strings by the general public were contributing‘ factors to the idleness of many fishing vessels up and down the Nova Scotia coast. European coun- tries would like to buy but they could not spare Canadian dollars. l-f. C. (Bert) Meade, secretary of, the Canadian Fisherman's Unlonl '_'1‘.L.A.) has said that deep-sea, fishermen now are averaging $500, less than last year. He pointed, out that the Fisheries Board will‘ not set floor prices but will have‘ the power only to consider the

‘pride situation in various districts and to take action to sec that fishermen get a “fair return."

Price of cod Declines

The price of cod paid fishermen has dropped from 31-2 to z l-2 cents a pound and more than 00i per cont of the fisherman in the h-ovtnco-tnere are some 8.000‘ including inshore fishermen-de- pend on cod landings for from 44 1-2 to '70 per cent of their total income. '

This brings back the unlovcly 1080 picture of fisherman returning from a week of back-breaking, frost-bitten work on the banks to receive 0100 for their entire catch -thfs to be be split up among the some 20 members of the crew.

The gloomiest note was struck by Mr. Lee. Ha said some business leaders in the United States were viewing the fish market slump as ‘the spearhead of another depres-

sion. He recalled that economist Roger Baboon had foretold the last ‘depression on the basis of falling fish prices in 1000.

should be left outside in this mat- ter of veterans preference for civil service jobs" Mr. Klniey told The Guardian today. "If they apply for such a position as lighthouse koeperoraiobonagovelnlnust

dredge in the Msritlmea, they will be at a disadvantage as compared to a man who served overseas with the army, navy, R.C.A.l". or auxil- iary services.

"I am putting it up straight to the Senate," he added, “whether a man who served on. a tanker or a merchant ship laden with muni- tions on Atlantic convoys has not as much right to this preference as men who served overseas with the Y.M.C.A., the Knights 0f C01- umbus or the Salvation Army. 1 respect the men who served with these auxiliary services but I can- not see why they should have benefits denied our merchant: sea- men.

"In the House of Commons," Mr. Kinley continued, "lt was stat- ed that our merchant seamen were recipients of many benefits. Com- pared to what they should receive as right, they got nothing at all. They may not share in benefits for interrupted education‘ and other advantages granted veter- ans."

Many people do not seem to realize, Senator Kinley said, that losses in the merchant. marine were greater than in the armed services. They do not realizq that men of the merchant marine were under discipline as were the other fighting services and ran risks‘ not only as great but in many, cases greater than personel of the army, navy and RCAF.

“I don't know what the Gov- ernment or what the Senate is go- ing to do about this bill," Mr. Kin- ley said. "for my part I will de- fend the amendment I sponsored in committee and will continue to press for men of the merchant marine to be included among those eligible for the veterans’ prefer- ence. I trust I will have the sup- port of the majority 0f the chain- ber, and particularly Senators
