He stated it was because of this case of travel that all modern conveyances were sub- ject to the most rigid inspection rules. Mr. Cannon continued by saying the potato beetle had been first discovered in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies in 1824. and it was not until 1874 lihat it showed in Eastern Canada.

Feb. 1 - (CF)-Don't Warns Againstimportation Of Grains Containing Ergot . The need of a closer checkup. inspection and grading of feeding stuffs distributed to Island farm producers was emphasized yester- day by Mr. W. R. Shaw. Deputy Minister of Agriculture-. Stating that he had been in- formed recently that carlosds of grain have been forwarded to this Province containing between I2 and fl percent of crgot. Mr. Shaw issued a warning to pro- clucers in this connection. "So badlndeed were these cars," he said, "that they were returned again to the point of shipment in Manitoba. This does not mean. of course. that this is it comtiion thing. I believe we have been getting grains of very high qual- ity from the West. and up to the grade. but with the high price of feeds there are some new mix- tures coming on the market. that are dangerous. "The mixture commonly called ground barley and mixed feed oats. for instance. may be desig- nated as ground barley and ground common nnts mixed togetlier, but this is not the case. The mixed feed oats may be the common oats and wild oats with a strong incidence of rye and other mater- ials that could carry crgot. I These grains may he CIIOADPT than the more reliable mixtures but they are dearer from the istandpoint. of thcir effect upon our animals. Farm:-rs should be very careful that they are secur- ing" materials that are free from dangerous products which affect thc growth. dEVPl0j'21'Ilel'll., and evc-n the life of our livestock. Mr. Shaw recalled that a great. deal of discussion took place at the rerrni Agricultural Confer- ence on the danger of feeding grains containing ergot. it being indicated from research work conducted in the United Stair-5: that 5 percent of ergot in feeds had a very disastrous effect on brood sows and their young. The irecommendation was very strong- ly made that hog raiscrs should feed only grains that they know to be free from this dangerous product: "in other words, to feed only Prince Edward Island grains to breeding animals."

C.C.l". leader. censuriniz the Government for supporting the United states resolution calling on the United Nations to brand Red China an aggressor in Korea. Mr. Drew, who opened the tie- bate. called on the Government for a Royal Commission with it view to cutting down non-essenl.- iai Government expenditure and for a Parliamentary committee to inquire into defence measures. He charged there was great un- certainty that Canada has more than a "very small number" of men ready to go into action, dc- spiie heavy defence spending. Mr. Coldweii said a thorough appraisal should be made of Can- adnls manpower and material re- sources before any decision is reached on how men should be raised for the armed forces. The C.C.F. leader also revived his party's demand for price con- trols .But it would not do to stab- ilize prices at high levels. There must be a rnil-back. At tonight's brief Hours sitting. Solon Low. Social Credit leader. said he agreed with the Prime Minist4.v's belief the Ncath At- lantic Alliance could prevent ag- gression. Canada must play its part, and to do so it should im- prove hlghway communications, dccentrniizc industry and stock- pile essentinl materials. Prime Minister's Statement The Prime Minister. surprisiiin observers by plutiging into the hot Conscription issue almost at the outset of the session. laid down the Government stand in these words: "So fa.i'. there has been nothing brought. to my attention that would indicate that. the institut- ion of national selective service at this time would be beneficial. On ithe coiitrnry. tiic lnformatioii we iiiave obtained is that it would ihnmpcr what is being done at this uioment. !

It also was known Canada could produce equipment efficiently. "And we believe, as Gen. Eisen- hower is reported to have sub- mltted in his report. in Congress today. that the big need of Wat- ern Europe at this time is for arms rather than for troops," Mr. St. Laurent said. Of controls. the Prime Minister said the Government hopes that ultimate decisioris in this direct- ion taken by the United states can be adapted for Canada. But he said they would be accepted for Canada only on their merits, viewed from Canada '5 national interest. He said the repercussions of eco- nomic policies in the DB. are bound to be felt in Canada. This. country could not prevent. a. degree of inflation here approaching that of the U. S. To avoid that, it. would have to "enclose our ccononiy in an Im- pervious wall that. under present conditions, would not be accepted by l. majority of the Canadian people." The Government was going to submit its controls legislation to Parlitunent RS soon as possible. After -passage, it. would be pos- sible to provide regulations as it appeared they would be bene- ficial. , The Prime Minister emphasized the nr-ed for enforcement. of any controls. declaring this would be possible only with the backing of A majority of the people.
