This is the only such ares in the Island province. Board officials point out that this order was made effective to provide more canned milk for in- fants, lnvaiids and others residing in areas when supplies of fresh milk are not adequate to meet re- quirements. In the Charlottetown area, supplies of fresh milk are sufficient to meet ordinary needs and consequenmy has been desig- listed as a "restricted ares“ l-low- cvef’. in this district. it is recognized that cemned milk ts needed for es- sential users and the commodity has been rationed by coupon in order to provide sufficient an lies for infant feeding and for o era who must have canned milk for health reasons.

Prince Edward Island and the other Atlantic areas have their riches of herring and mackerel and added to them 2o of 3o other kinds of good fish and shellfish. "PrinceEdward island shares in most oi.‘ those prolific fish- eries. one in many of them in important degree. You think first, of course. of your won- derful ‘obster fishery which means so much to so many of your people as a source of livelihood and can continue to yield great profit to the Island if we all see to it that the lobster stocks are not them- selves depleted through dis- regard or infringement of the regulations adopted in the in- terests of conservation. What a calamity it would be. how enormous the loss to the Pro- vince in the years ahead. it’ through indifference or care- lessness or, worse. through public tolerance of breach of conservation law, this great fishery were allowed to be de- pleted. We must see that this does not happen. “Naturally, as I have said. Prince Edward Island thinks first of lobsters when fisheries are dis- cussed. bur it is your good for- tune that you do not have Ill your eggs in one basket. so to speak even if the lobster basket is a very big one in its own right For my own part. as I have gone about the Island in the past day or two, I have been especially impressed by what seemed to me to be the great expansion p0ssibi‘- lties of your oyster fishery. libr- rune treated you very badly when ii did such havoc to your famous Malpeque stocks some thirty years llgo.

Problems of administration are often more complex than first glance may show or more complex than they may appear when seen only fronl itle standpoint of one branch of the industry or one locality. I find that the problem with only one side to it is a good deal of a rarity. We who are in the public service must base our decisions and actions on examinations oft nll sides of {he questions which‘ come before us. Welcomes Criticism "1 welcome information and opinions aliri suggestion from the [IEODIE of the fishing districts. If they think wrong administrative courses are being taken. I like them to tell me so. No one will ever find me objecting to honest. informed criticism. whether it is directed at me or at the service unlcii I head; I ask only two things in this respect. I ask that opinions be based upon consider- ation of problems from all points of view and I ask that the man who says I am wrong will also tell me why he thinks so. It is the ground on which criticism rests, the reasons beck cf it. which created by the urgency of war. Price ceilings did not eliminate this condition, they merely held in check their impact on the prlcal and supply of ordinary civilian goods and services. "It was realized that a slay of reckoning would come." Mr. (jar- don said. “When the enormous production for war stopped there Would have to be some price in- creases as we shifted from war to peace and before we could make an orderly return to a free pricing system."
