I -(C'Pi - Premier Joseph Smaliwood said in a New Year's message Saturday night that a "very wealthy United States firm" is coming to New- foundland to investigate the poss- ibility of economic development. The premier. speaking over a provincial CBC network. did not name the firm but said it "not only has great financial resources but .. . , can command what. is perhaps even more important - the greatest technicians, spec- iialists and experts in North Amer- ca." This was the announcement the presnier promised Newfoundland- ers when he returned from New York It week ago and told news- paper reporters he had the "great- est news that had ever been pro- duced in the lives of Newfound- lenders." It. was the second time in two months the premier, a former newapaperman. had set tongues wagging by promising big news in advance. Several weeks ago he made such a promise and turned up with the announcement of a $200,000,000 iron ore development. in Labrador. The New Year's message was largely a resume of Mr. Small- \vood's Liberal government's work since taking office nine ago -_- for the first several months on an interim basis. He saved his big announcement until the last. "Well, there it is," he said after giving the details. "And I repeat what I said be- fore. This is the biggest news we have heard for a long time in Newfoundland: the fact that one of the most famous and wealthy and public-spirited organizations in the Pivhole world now is inter- ested in Ncwfoundlands possibil- ities for development. After all, it would take only a few millions of dollars - 400N000 or 601300.000 —— spc-nt in the right ivay to make Newfoundland a thriving and prosperous economy." ‘Unnamed People Mr. Smaliwood described the people he spoke to in New York like this: "They are famous. they are wealthy, and they have a very unusual sense of public responsib- ility; a very exceptional public spirit, believing that great wealth should be used to help the world and especially those Pills °_1 the world xvhich need help most.‘ Although Mr. Smalswood declin- ed to name these pee-pie, civic anid business leaders here believed h-S references narrowed the possibil- ities to comparatively few. 011B 0T these could be the Rockefelicrs.

Federation of Agriculture, Mr. O'Connor pointed out that for the first time the farmers of Canada had been able to organiie as a co- operating group unrlcr the aus- pices of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. This union of farm- ers is making the voice of agricul- ture heard in Canada's Parliament and in the United Nations agri- cultural conferences. Speaking of local conditions, Mr. O'Connor stated that the Feder- ation “ms still in process of get-_ ting well organized on the lsiandi, but already representations had‘ been made regarding the egg and turnip situation. No great pro- gross can he made, the speaker] stated, until more of the P. E, I. farmers realize the need for or- ganizing and meeting together so that they can speak with a un- lied voice.

In his opin- ion the farmers’ big problem tn- day was marketing. At the present time P. E. I. was producing sup. plus crop; which had a tendency to depress the market. Some uray of handling the surplus crops must he found to prevent prices failing to a disastrous low icvel.
