Stonbury. national director of the Canadian Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service, is in Charlottetown at present as part of an organizational tour on be- half of the Blood ‘Transfusion Service. The Red Cross plans to open tha third of its provincial units in Halifax in September. A sub- depot will be opened in Charlotte- town. subject to the approval of the Provincial Government, with headquarters in the Provincial Laboratory. This depot will serve as a central blood bank and dis- tributing centre for the Island. When the new hospital is com- pleted in Summerside, the Red Cross hopes to establish a satel- lite blood bank there. The ultimate goal of ‘the Red Cross Blood ‘h-ansfusion Service, Dr. Stanbury stated, is to supply every hospital in Canada. free of charge with whole blood. plasma. and the necessary sterile equip- ment needed for its administrat- ion. The only stipulation made by the Red Cross is that no hos- pital will make any charge to the patient for this service. Over and above this plan, the Red Cross hopes to eventually in- clude s free ante-natal investig- ation service for every qualified medical practitioner in Canada. This ante-natal investigation ser- vice will aid in decreasing infant mortality. Dr. staiibury stated. -—-——————i__. MINISTER DISOIISSES vuontmued from Page i; _____. ____________ Product would have to be of a standard acceptable not only to the Canadian consumer but also to any consumer the world over. Pedsonally. he approved of such a D0116)’. ‘Mr. Mayhew saia‘. but he wanted the industry to know what such o. policy would imply. Mr. Mayhew said there was a great domestic market for fresh fish in such centres as Montreal Toronto. Ottawa. and Hamilton. But. the fish must be of the finest possible quality and to that end his Department. was now studying all possible means to insure that ship- ments of fresh fish would arrive in such centres in good condition. To that end the Department new had one of its laboratories experi. menting with a new form of refrigerator car. A detailed study of fish consumption in inland Canadian cities is also being carri- ed on. In 1933. the value of fish caught in the Province was a little over $800,000; in 1946. the value had in- creased to $4.471.000. The inccrne of the average fisherman on the Island had jumped from $173 in 1935 to about $1.000 in 1946 and 1947. "We are now nearly about. where we should have been in 1935," Mr. Mayhew said. Loss To The Industry Mr. Msyhew‘ referred to the weal done in the Department by the late Mr. Bridges and said he was now endeavouring to carry out some of the plans for the bencfn of the industry which Mr. Bridges had formulated before his death. "In the passing of the Hon. Frank Bridges. the industry has lost a real friend and able administrator." He had come to the Province to meet the people of the fishing industry so that he could discuss their problems with them and devise. perhaps. some means to improve their welfare. Mr. ‘May- hew said. He spoke in commend- atory terms of Dr. Pritchard of the Fishery Research Board and of the work being done by his Deputy-Minister. Mr. Stuart Bates. as well as the service being render- ed by Dr. Needler. Mr. Mayhew referred to the experimental work now being can-i. ed on in Island waters by lhc two fishing boats. the “Cowle" and the "Haiengus." and said he proposed to visit both boats today at Souris Concluding. Mr. Mayhew said his trip to the Island had been a revelation to him. 0n behalf of Mrs. Mayhew — who could not come with him on this visit - and himself he wished to thank the people of Charlottetown for the enerous hospitality accorded his on during the two months he spent here In training with the R C.

In the meantime, he could assure the fishing industry of the Pro- vince that he was interested in its welfare and that he stood ready. so far as his ability allowed, to do all for its future development and success that he possibly could. EXllansion of Industry Mr,_ Stuart Bates, Deputy-Min. ister of Fisheries. said the new fishery development department under Dr. Pritchard was concen. trail“: on the maintenance and expansion of the fish stock, ong hundred and fifty young men r1441 been taken into the service and, more would be added. For n time, perhaps for a, considerable time, many of those young men would have to act in the role or pOlicQ-a irnen to such branches of the fish- eries aa the lobster industry but that. as conditions improved, they would be given other work a: a more constructive nature to do. Mrs. Bates referred to the ap- nointment of new men to carry on tha oyster culture work at. El- lerslie. Dr. Needler, who has spent many years in Ellerslie in pioneer oyster culture development and research, was expected to arrive in the City in time to be vwilh tha Minister on his trip to sow-jg, Mr. Bates said. . Ml’. J. Watson MacNnught, Pg liamentary assistant to Mr, MW- aaid he agreed wit-h the Minister's remarks about the ne- cessity p! quality in the mug“, 111s of fish. Only a few day ago, he had purchased a fish i.n tha Province which ho bad to throw out. There was no doubt, slant, d“. tribution facilities were an in» portant factor in the future aim- cessvof the industry but the mo! efficient of such facilities could not take the place of quality. Uflu less the fish processed are in good condition, all the marketing 13¢. ilities in the world cannot cell thcm. Recommends Grading Senator J.E. Sinclair said he had no experience of the fishing in- dWl-YY other than knowing whe- ther a fish served him was fir. t; eat. But he believed compulsory inspecting and grading q-Q-uld do for the fishing industry what it had done for the potato business and be recommended that such a policy be instituted as soon a; possible. Mr. J.L. Douglas, M.P_ said he had driven Mr. Mayhew to Rus. tico yesterday where the mlnlsgep had seen three rannerles at. work, H6 had known the Minister for a long time and he fully believed that he would do all he had Promised. Mr. W. Chester S. MacLure said he sot opposite to Mr. Mayhew 1n the House of commons and would, should the situation require it, take Bvéfy Opportunity of remind- in; Mr. lvfayhcw in the I-Ic-use of all the promises he had made-to the Island fishing industry. He believed Mr. Maylieiw was sincere and would do all in his power to further the interests of the in- dustry. Mi". Mar-Lure referred to the fart. that. the country had had four Ministers of fisheries within the last. year and l1 within the last 1'.‘ years. He did not approwQ of so molly changes. Just as a. Minister n-iis hcrqming acquaint- ed with his Department, another took his place, I-Ic approved of the Depart- ments intention to conduct. n fish advertising campaign at. the Tor- onto Exhibition and suggested that. the Department. conduct a survey in the Province to locate more scallop beds. Mr. MacLura said he hnri reason to believe there were fishing areas in which there were scallop beds unknown to the fishermen. Limit-Governor JA. Bernard said he had horn a little late ar- riving because he had just re- turned from a successful fishing trip with the Governor General.
